A/N Okay, this one shot is based off a song I wrote yesterday. The tune is probably something like Avril Lavigne Wish You Were Here. Not exactly like it, but it's what I think of as I read the words. I thought it would fit well with the whole Channy thing, Sonny's a little messed up in this one; but just go with it guys, right? This is for 123CHANNY456, who was my 100th reviewer on Don't I Know You! So, hope ya like it, 123CHANNY456!
Blurring the Lines
My name is Sonny Munroe. I work on So Random! I'm seventeen years old.
And my father has just gone to prison.
I bet you're probably confused right now, right? Well, my mom left when I was twelve. Ever since then my dad had abused me. Recently, I finally had the courage to speak up for myself, and now he's out of my life.
I'm still not the same though. Over the years, I built up my defences. Defences like that don't go away in five minutes.
Walls built on the lines
Marked out in my mind
Take the lines and
Down goes the walls
That's what you've been doing
And I can't understand it
Anymore
Chad Dylan Cooper. My 'enemy'. He was the one who noticed how quiet I am. How I never talk when I don't have to. Somehow, in the past few months, he's become close. And little by little, he's helped the walls to come down. I used to be so scared, but now... not so much.
Blurring the lines
I'm losing my defences
For you it's not even difficult
You're breaking me down and
I'm loving every second
Blurring the lines
I remember that first time he really talked to me. I don't remember much about our conversation before I broke down. But I do remember that he reached out, while everyone else backed away in alarm, of the confused, abused girl. Lately, he's been on my mind, even when he's not there. I used to miss the comfort, but now... it's something more.
Did you take my mind,
As well as my hand?
How did you get through,
When I was so strong?
You're killing me slowly
And it's everything
To me
He was crazy. He had grabbed my hand, and knotted his fingers through mine, and I hadn't jerked away. His smile had caused me to smile. It was like that more and more each day. When he wasn't there, the pain came back, but he was like a painkiller. I was so confused. He was right there when I needed him now. He'd changed, but he was changing me too. Sometimes, I didn't even recognise myself. And I couldn't get enough... I was addicted.
What are you doing,
To me?
You're just pulling me
Right through
And for once in my life
It's easy
Easy as breathing
Should be
You're my drug
I was beginning to realize exactly what he was doing for me. Not only was he comforting me, he was helping me, changing me, shaping me. With him, it was almost like my dad had never laid a hand on me. I breathed out suddenly as I realized just what he had done, along with healing me.
He'd touched my heart, as well as my hand.

(You're just amazing)
I'm losing my defences
(And I've never been so free)
For you it's not even difficult
(It's everything to me)
You're breaking me down
(It's perfect bliss and)
I'm loving every second
You're blurring the lines,
Blurring my lines
And I'm loving you more and more
Each minute
With my new realization, I ran out into the rain. I sprinted to his house. I slammed my knuckles on the door, and he answered.
"Sonny?" he said, surprised. It was late. He'd left after I went to bed. I hesitated for a second, then came right out with it.
"Chad, I... I love you." There. I'd said it. I watched for his reaction. He froze for a second, then a beautiful smile lit his face.
"Come here!" He said, pulling me into his arms. I pressed my face into his chest, and let a few tears escape.
"I love you, too," he murmured into my hair. Warmth flooded my chest as I pulled back to smile at him.
I was home.
A/N Okay, hope you liked it! Especially you, 123CHANNY456 :) it was all for you, girl!
