"Chad," says Tawni while walking into her dressing room sitting in front of her mirror while Sonny is sitting in front of hers.

"Huh?" Sonny is confused and looks all around the room but doesn't see Chad anywhere.

"What's the first word that comes to mind when you think of Chad?"

"Hmmm lets see..." Sonny thought about it for a while. "Haughty."

"You think he's a hawty?" asked Tawni.

"No! I mean the haughty you know like full of yourself?"

"First step check."

"What do you mean?"

Tawni turns back and looks at Sonny. "Sonny, you're in denial that you like Chad."

"What do you mean? I don't like Chad."

Tawni starts filing her nails. "Oh, I'm sorry. I meant that you LOVE Chad Dylan Cooper." She emphasized the word "love."

"I am NOT in love with anyone," says Sonny making sure she emphasized "not."

Tawni, ignoring what Sonny said, says, "I don't know why you like him though. What do you see in him?"

Sonny is now very irritated and annoyed so she leaves the room and goes under the seats by the stage.

She keeps whispering to herself, "I don't like him" over and over and over again.

But, the problem is that the little voice in her head keeps saying "I love him" over and over and over again.

"You don't like who?"

Sonny jumps up in surprise when she sees Chad Dylan Cooper sitting right next to her.

"It's nothing," replies Sonny.

"Come on. Please, tell me?" Chad stares right into Sonny's warm brown eyes.

Sonny stares right back up into Chad's gentle blue eyes and says, "I... I got to go."

She leaves Chad while Chad is trying to figure out what he did wrong that she had to leave so urgently.
