The Conversation

Disclaimer: I do not own Sonny With a Chance or The Conversation (by Motion City Soundtrack) :)

Chad walked down the hall, hanging his head as he prepared himself for what he was about to do. He was about to break his Sonshine's heart.

Do you remember how we met?
Silhouetted by the lights...
You were drunk and tried to take a mental picture with your hands

Chad recalled the memories of his girlfriend, starting with the time he met her by the fro-yo machine, to the drunken party that changed it all, to just yesterday when he had held her in his arms. He would miss her, that's for sure.

I was thinking about that
And a bunch of other things
Stop looking at the floor...
I need to pour out this expansive dose of words.

He couldn't stand the thought of hurting her, but it had to be done, no matter how much he loved her.

I can't explain...
I need to be alone.

Cha just felt he needed time alone, by himself to figure things out for himself. He knew Sonny wouldn't understand, she believed his life was perfect, and that she knew all of his problems. It seems like a perfect world, but the truth is she doesn't know everything. There are aspects of his life he doesn't share with anyone, and those too can cause problems in his life. Chad sighed as he knocked on her dressing room door. "Hey Chad! What's up?" Sonny greeted with a smile. He expression changed when she saw the serious look upon Chad's face. "What's wrong?" she questioned him, a worried look on her face.

"Uhhh...Sonny I don't quite know how to say this but..." he trailed off, searching for the right words. Sonny's face dropped; she saw what was coming. She nodded.

"I-uh- get it Chad. You're breaking up with me. It-it's ok...you can go now..." she stuttered, confused with what had happened. "Goodbye..." she whispered after him as he turned, a pained expression on his face, and slowly retreated down the hallway.

I know the timing isn't great
But these things, you just can't plan.
I just need a little time
So I can find myself again
'Cause I get buried underneath
All the things they think you are
And I'm too tired to pretend it doesn't hurt
To be left out

Chad sighed as he shut the door and shuffled to his dressing room. He wanted to be with her, he truly did, but he just needed to make things right with himself first. There's a reason he calls himself the greatest actor of our generation. It's because he is. Each and every day he acts normal, like everything is fine in his world. But is everything always alright? Of course not, nothing is ever perfect. He wasn't always happy. In fact he was often far from it. Once he had settled his own personal issues he could come back to her again.

I had a pocket full of dreams
But I gave them all to you
Now I think I want them back
So can you tell me if I'm crazy or confused?

Chad had given her his everything, spent all his energy on her, but now he needed to fix himself and needed that energy back. The only way to do that was to leave her. Everything will turn out fine in the end. He left a note outside Sonny's dressing room, quoting his favorite song.

"Don't ever change
The way you are
I've never loved anyone more.

-Chad"
