Hi! This is a multi-chaptered fanfic about Sonny, which I wrote for Arie Jay, for her birthday.

so…HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ARIE JAY! You wanted a Channy story, and here's one! Sorry it's not so great. anyway, enjoy, and please read and review!

I slumped in my bed, lazily and stared at the ceiling, daydreaming. My mind swirling, it created different patterns and colors on the otherwise white walls, making me dizzy. I sighed, closing my eyes, and feeling a wave of calmness wrapping me up, like a warm winter coat.

It was the 6th of October, and my birthday was coming up.

I had big plans, involving a wild party, with songs, presents, cakes and surprises.

I dreamed about getting so many presents that they wouldn't fit in my room. But would I get them?

After all, I had only invited my cast. And…Chad, but that's a different story.

My heart raced when I thought of him. I hated the fact that it was like that, but I had to admit, I was fascinated by those deep blue eyes of his. It was like staring at the calm, turquoise ocean, and I felt like I was swimming in them, getting lost. His eyes…

I shook my head as I brought the flow of my thoughts back in the present. Would they come? I wondered. I had given them the invitations a few days ago, and I really hoped that they hadn't forgotten about my birthday. But knowing them, they probably had.

I didn't think they'd keep it in mind anyway. But what could I do?

Wait and hope.

Remind them? No, I would seem desperate. Which I was, but it wasn't necessary for them to know.

*On the night of her birthday, before the party*

I'm so sorry Sonny. I can't come to your birthday party tonight. I'm celebrating with my family, and I don't want to miss it. I'll leave a present though, Nico had written. I sighed, as a sudden wave of disappointment washed me over. Oh well. One is out of the list.

'MOOOO MOOOO!'

"Hello," I frowned. What now?

"Sonny, it's me, Tawni. I didn't forget about your party. It's just that I have been invited somewhere in California and I have to go. Zora asked me to tell you that she is sick and isn't coming either. I'm so sorry, Sonny. Bye!" and she hung up before I could protest.

I felt like crying when my mind finally processed what she had told me. That reduced the list to two, Grady probably forgot; and Chad, but he wasn't going to show up anyway, not even if I told him that-

*Doorbell ringing*

I jumped up from my couch, a sudden pulse of excitement flowing through me as I hurried towards the door.

Hesitantly, I pushed it open, with the tip of my finger, and it made a screeching sound as it cracked open. I peered form behind it, and at first I could see nothing.

As my vision clarified, I spotted him. His perfect face, his messy, blond hair, the wide curve spread upon his face, stretching between his ears and his lips and then his eyes …Those eyes…

Blue eyes locked with brown as we gazed at each other, dreamily.

"Happy birthday," he whispered.
