Walking down the dark corridors of the So Random studio could get pretty lonely sometimes. Sonny was walking down the fore mentioned corridors in the middle of the day and weirdly enough, there was nobody there. She didn't mind it at all because she was used to doing this. She would almost always leave the set just before the security guard would make his end-of-the-day rounds.
So back to Sonny walking the corridors. Whenever she got lonely, she'd just hum a happy tune to drown out the loneliness. Currently she was humming a Beatles song, When I'm Sixty-four. She laughed as she thought of some guy singing that to her in the future.
As she walked towards the corner, she heard footsteps. This never happened to her before. She also heard the person humming the Jaws theme. That really freaked her out. Sonny would always see this stuff happen to innocent girls in the movies. The serial killer would come after random people and kill them with the most unlikely thing. She looked into her bag. She was looking for something that would help her in case this freak was going to attack her. Nearing the corner, she grabbed the nearest thing her hand touched. She took it out, held it in front of her as protection and rounded the corner.
She blinked a couple of times while swinging her weapon in front of her like a mad man. The person backed away a few steps and held his hands up as if she just put a gun to his head. She rolled her eyes when she saw who her suspected serial killer was. The one and only, Chad Dylan Cooper. 'The three named jerk.' as her cast mates would lightly put it.
"Whoa. Don't kill me with the deadly hairbrush!" He mocked as he laughed at her weapon of choice. She looked down at what she grabbed in the spur of the moment. A hairbrush. Yes, she couldn't have picked a deadlier thing. She rolled her eyes at his comment. He was trying to be funny. Well, he really should stay in the drama department.
For the first time since they bumped into each other, she looked at him from head to toe. He was wearing his regular Mackenzie Falls uniform. He had a guitar strapped to his back, a Starbucks Strawberries and Cream Frapuccino, a Starbucks package that she was pretty sure was a muffin and a good old-fashioned tape recorder in between his palm and the package.
"What are you doing here? You hate it here remember?" Sonny pronounced every word in the last sentence as if he was a child. He rolled his eyes at this.
"Geez, Can't a guy just go over to his rival's studio and try to make peace between them by bringing a peace offering?" He said as he rose the frap and muffin up to her face.
Sonny was shocked. She looked at the sight before her. Chad Dylan Cooper actually giving her a peace offering. He had this look in his eyes. She couldn't pin point exactly what it was but it was something along the lines of peace and a hint of guilt. She took it out of his hands and eyed him suspiciously.
"What are you doing this for?" She looked at the drink. "Did you put something in this? Are you trying to ruin us again?" Sonny asked, her voice rising. Chad chuckled at her insinuations and took out two straws and offered one to her. He stuck his in the drink and sipped a healthy amount. She eyed him suspiciously as he did so. She knew he was a good actor and he could have easily acted his way out of poisoning.
He chuckled once again at her reaction. "Come on Sonny, can't you just trust me?" Chad said. She wanted to scream in his face, 'No! Not after what you did to us!' but there was something in his voice that held her back.
She slowly lifted it to her mouth and found it delightfully delicious. Chad smirked at this.
"Don't smirk! How did you even know I would like this?" She asked as she opened the bag to grab the muffin.
"I saw you buy it the other day. What are you doing?" Chad asked her incredulously as she slid down the corridor wall to sit down on the cold hard floor.
She looked up at him and gave him a toothy grin. "I wanted to enjoy this delicious muffin and frap my friend gave me, would you care to join me?" Chad smiled at the word 'friend' and slid down next to her. He took off the guitar and set it down beside him. Sonny split the muffin in half while Chad stuck his straw back in the drink. Out of nowhere, Sonny giggled.
"What? What could you possibly be laughing at?" Chad said as a smile formed on his face.
"Nothing. I was just thinking that this is our very own peace picnic!"
Chad smiled softly and turned away from her. He took a sudden interest on the wall across from him as he stared intently at it. They stayed like this for a minute or two until Sonny decided to break the silence.
"So, what's with the guitar?" Sonny asked as she popped a small piece of the muffin in her mouth.
Chad glanced down at the said guitar. "Oh nothing, I'm just practicing for the talent show coming up."
"Really? Can we hear any off the songs you're supposedly practicing?" Sonny asked excitedly, as she turned to him.
"No, we can't!" Chad countered.
"Please Chad Dylan, Please." She used her puppy dog face on him. Chad was struggling to keep himself from giving in. She was just too cute to resist. Her smile was weakening his cavalier attitude. Chad groaned and finally caved in to her request.
"YAY!" Sonny cheered as she did a small happy dance in her seat.
He started to strum a familiar tune to his ears. His voice was kind of caught in his throat but he dared himself to continue. He started to sing lightly, granting Sonny's request.
Love of mine
Someday you will die.
But I'll be close behind
I'll follow you into the dark
Sonny looked at him with such innocence in her eyes that he almost stopped playing to just stare into them, but he couldn't do that. That would be too awkward, not to mention really weird. He continued the rest of the song with Sonny looking at him the same way. As he sung the last lines of the song, he looked deeply in her eyes. Sonny's heart melted as he did so.
I'll follow you into the dark
I'll follow you into the dark
Sonny snapped out of her reverie as he sang the last note. "Wow Chad." She started, still at awe. "That was amazing."
Chad smiled at her sheepishly. "Well, I didn't just come here to give you a peace offering; I also came here for a favor…" Chad trailed off as Sonny raised one eyebrow.
"What kind of a favor and how big is it?" She was this close to getting up and leaving him sitting there. How dare he try to use her like that! It is not something she would stand for.
"It's a small one." Chad started, already fearing the worst. He knew the look on Sonny's face. It was the look of anger she got every time she would get annoyed by something and most on the time that something would be him.
"What kind of favor?" She asked in a low voice and through gritted teeth. Chad visibly winced at her tone but she didn't back down. He stood up to see her eye-to-eye.
"Iwaswonderingifyouwouldsingwithmeatthetalentshow." She didn't even have time to process what he said so she just said,
"WHAT?"
"I said, I was wondering if you would sing with me at the talent show."
Thanks so so much for reading! If you liked it, I'll update as soon as I can!
The song that Chad sang was I'll Follow You into the Dark by Death Cab For Cutie, but Sterling Knight actually sang that and he was pretty good too!
