Wonderful Christmas Time

I looked around the hallways. I saw red, green, silver, white, gold, and blue colors everywhere. Big wreaths hung on the walls. You could smell the hot chocolate from the café. The warm, delicious, chocolaty goodness that you can feel travel through you when you take a tiny sip. The squishy marshmallows that float on top of the brown colored liquid, just waiting to be eaten. I glided through the halls in full Christmas spirit.

Then it was ruined.

Welcome to my life. My life involves, Chad Dylan Cooper. And Chad Dylan Cooper is lacking something. Hm, let me think. Spirit? Kindness? Liveliness? Focus? Good heart? Well okay, he lacks a lot of things, no need to go on.

I was still on the floor in shock from being pulled out of my fabulous daydream.

"Sonny. What are you doing?" Chad asks looking at me. My head turned to his face, then down to the floor. Well Chad, I am giving you the silent treatment for wrecking my happy place. Again.

"Earth to Sonny. Whatever." He turned to walk away then turned back as if he remembered something.

"Oh Sonny?" I looked at him with wide eyes.

"Oh, I see silent treatment. Whatever, anyways, there's a Christmas dance coming up, and I was wondering if you had a date?" He asked looking at me. Was Chad Dylan Cooper asking me to be his date? No. He is just trying to make me feel bad. If you don't believe me, just wait. I shook my head no.

"Well that sucks for you; anyways did you read the invitation. No date, no go. So you obviously can't go. Hah! Peace out suckas!" He yelled then ran down the hall. Yep, I told you. I know that the dance is tomorrow and all. But Chad was right. I can't go. Everyone at the studio already has a date.

Well except me. I walked down the hall and ran into Marshal.

"Hey kiddo, do you mind doing something for me. I know you don't have a date so I thought that you could do something." He said. Wait a second.

"How do you know I don't have a date?" I asked.

"Chad told me. Well he told everyone. Anyways, I need you to find someone to fill in the entertainment spot at 10pm. It's the last song before the night. It has to be a Christmas song. Know anyone who can do it?" He asked. I smiled.

"I'll do it!" I said smiling huge.

"I didn't know you could sing. Well sure okay. Thanks Sonny." Marshal walked away. Yes! I am in the dance.

I ran to the café and noticed my cast eating. I sat down in between Tawni, and Grady.

"Hey Sonny, I heard you don't have a date." Nico said.

"It's fine. Who's your date?" I asked.

"Tawni." My eyed got wide, and I looked in between them.

"Nothings going on Sonny, we just want to go to the dance so we don't end up like you." Tawni said looking at her nails.

"Well how about you Grady?" I asked.

"I'm taking Zora." My eyes got even wider.

"Same reason Tawni said." Zora said. I turned and glared at her. I got up and walked over to line to get hot chocolate.

Later that day, I was practicing my song with my band at home. Yes I have a band, no one knows about it though except my mom. I was going to sing my version of "Wonderful Christmas Time".

It was 20 minutes before the dance was over and I was in my dressing room, putting on my dress. (A/N Link to dress http:/www .chictopia .com/photo/show/301127-Demi+Lovatos+Semi-Formal+look-red-dress-black-blazer-gold-necklace-white-glasses-white Take out spaces.)

I double checked myself. For the dance you were only allowed to wear black, or white, so I decided to be a rebel. Like always. Red was a good color on me, so why not wear it. I walked to the back of the stage unnoticed by anyone at the dance. I peaked around the curtain, and saw everyone in either black, or white of course. I was actually the only one not out there. Well that's embarrassing. The curtain closed and my band and I got ready.

I decided not to play the guitar this time. I usually do but, it would be awkward in this dress. I stood by the mic and the lights went out on us. The curtain rose, and I could feel stares. My drummer started drumming and the lights were still out. More music started to play. And I sang my first part.

"La da da da daa." The music kept playing.

The lights came on as soon as I started singing again.

"The mood is right
Spirits up
We're here tonight
and that's enough"

I heard gasps from the audience. I only looked at the back wall though. I didn't want to see their expressions.

We finished and the curtain went down. I heard a huge applaud. I ran back to my dressing room, and got out of my dress, then put on pajamas in about 5 minutes. I took off a lot of the heavy make-up and just re-did it in a natural way. I pulled my hair in a pony tail and jumped on the couch. I pressed play, and Christmas Carol played from halfway into the movie. I made my eyes water by starring at the screen. Then just as planned I heard a knock.

I looked up and saw Chad standing there. He was smirking until he saw my face. He rushed over and sat beside me, then took my face in his hands. Ugh, so overdramatic.

"Sonny, what happened?" He asked in his Mackenzie voice.

"I, well I was watching this movie and it's just a really sad part." I pretended to sob. I buried my head in his chest.

"Sonny, you're crying because of a movie? You're ruining my shirt over a movie? Wait, how can you be watching a movie when you were on stage singing?" He looked down at me taking in everything.

"How are you in your pajamas? You had on a dress and a lot of make-up and your hair was down not up. And you were on stage. And what?" He asked completely dumfounded.

"What are you talking about Chad?" I asked like he was crazy.

"You were singing. On stage. Like 10 minutes ago." He said.

"What?" I asked again. "Chad are you okay, I don't know what you are talking about."

"Oh no, Sonny, you're not fooling me. I videoed it on my phone." My eyes widened a little.

"Wait, you videoed me singing?" I asked. He looked at me realizing what he just admitted.

"Um, I uh, I got to go." He said nervously.

"Chad? Are you getting nervous?" I asked innocently.

"What? CDC nervous, pssht no." He said standing up. I stood up, and he was backing away towards a wall.

"Chad? Are you lying to me?" I asked while his back hit the wall. I got up closer till we were only an inch apart.

"I, um, I, Sonny?"

"Yes Chad?" He leaned in and kissed me then pushed me back onto the floor and ran.

"Jerk!" I yelled. Wait, Chad just kissed me! Not that I care. I walked out of the room, and ran down the hall to Chad's dressing room to confront him. He has no right to kiss me, and then leave no explanation. I turned a corner, and I felt someone grab me. They pushed me up against the wall and started to kiss me roughly. I opened my one eye, and saw it was Chad. I smiled into the kiss and he pulled away.

"So what does this make us?" I asked.

"Psht please Sonny, this feeling only comes this time of year." He quoted me then left smiling.

"JERK!" I yelled after him.

Like I said before. Welcome to my world.
