A/N: I decided to do a little drama fic-lot's of "teary" moments and drama, but, it's a fic, so it's all good in the end...right? Don't forget to read "Sonny With a Chance of Goodbye". I'm still writing it, too, just needed to start something different to keep my ideas from swirling so much.

I disclaim everything but myself!

Chapter One: Just Another Random Day

"Aww, looks like the fro yo machine is all out of yo. Got to wait for more to ... fro. Ha! Ha! Sorry, Randoms."

"Oh, I just bet you are, Chad!"

"What's the matter, Sonny? Did you want a delicious, creamy, bowl of yogurty goodness?' Chad teased in a pouty, kid-like voice.

"Really, Chad? Really? Uggh, it's been a horrible day and you always seem to make it brighter, so thanks for that."

Sonny turned to walk away from the Mackenzie Falls kids arguing with the Randoms over taking the last of the frozen yogurt. She hadn't particularly had a good day, and was certainly in no mood to argue with Chad over it. As she stomped off, Chad felt a sudden small twinge of guilt and followed her. He caught up with her just outside the So Random prop room.

"What do you want, Chad? To gloat some more? Well, I really don't ..."

"Well, I thought I'd be nice and split this with you. I mean, since you had a bad day and all."

Sonny was speechless.

"Well, didn't you want some?"

"Why would you share with me, Chad? Aren't you afraid of Random cooties."

"Yeah, normally, but something tells me you might be safe."

Sonny couldn't help but smile at his cocked up eyebrows and crooked grin. She and Chad fought like cats and dogs, but deep down, and they both knew it, there was a bond there. Something unexplainable, yet, strong. They just "got" each other.

"Well, if you think it's safe...for both of us...maybe you could come in and let's split it?"

Chad followed Sonny to the couch, and they plopped down to eat the yogurt. Sonny flipped on the radio and they enjoyed each other's company for a few minutes before the rest of the Random cast came busting in.

"Uggh, Chad, what are you doing in here?"

"He was actually being nice to me, Tawni."

"Yeah, right. Chad Dylan Cooper doesn't do nice to Randoms. It's a trick, Sonny. Don't fall for his lies."

"Whoa, there, Blondie. Tone done the melodrama. Stop auditioning for the Falls, already."

"Like I would want to be on that lame show."

"Well, obviously you do since you work so hard on the over-the-top drama-queen act."

"Stop it, you two! What are you guys doing, anyway."

"We're going to go out for fro yo since the Mack Falls meatheads tapped out the machine here," Nico answered. "Wanna come, Sonny?"

"No, thank you, Nico, actually I'm good."

Sonny looked at Chad quickly, smiling. He was still locked in a staredown with Tawni, but he noticed the grin on Sonny's face and couldn't help but feeling a little satisfaction knowing he put it there.

"Well, suit yourself, but we're getting out of here. Too many bad actors hanging around, " Tawni said, nodding to Chad.

"Don't insult yourself and your castmates that way, Tawni. Definitely not going to win you Miss Congeniality around the studios."

"There's a studio pageant?"

Sonny rolled her eyes, "No, Tawni. Chad's just being...well, Chad."

"Oh! Hmmph!"

Tawni turned and stomped off, and the others followed, leaving Chad and Sonny alone again.

"Why do you have to antagonize her so much?"

"Who? Blondie? She deserves it."

"No she doesn't, Chad. You could be nicer to her...like you are to me."

"But I like you..."

"What?"

"I mean...I didn't mean I like...I meant...what I meant was...you're easy to get along with. You're fun. She's just...so caught up in herself. You're different. That's all I mean."

"Well, you aren't exactly the best person to condemn someone is self-obsorbed, Chad."

"Aww, come'on, Sonny. There's obviously more to me than the shallow shell I pretend to be."

"Well, Chad, I...I...I don't know what to say. That's deep coming from you."

"See. Maybe it's you...maybe you bring out the best in me."

"Really, Chad? Really, " Sonny mocked.

"Really, Sonny. Really." Chad smiled. His eyes locked in on Sonny's and they were both frozen for a moment.

"Well, I should get back to my side of the building. I'd hate to have my castmates think I was slumming over here on the "Random side".

'That's my Chad, ' Sonny thought. 'Wait, I mean, not MY Chad, but the Chad I know, the...oh, heck.'

"Fine!" Sonny said, smiling, trying to forget about the thoughts rumbling around in her head.

"Fine." Chad answered back, also smiling.

"Good!" Sonny returned.

"Good!"

"So are we good?"

"We are so good, " Chad said as backed out the door, with a grin on his face that stretched from ear to ear. As he walked down the hallway, Sonny called out,

"Thanks, Chad."

He turned slowly to look at Sonny.

"Anytime, Sonshine."

'Sonshine?' Sonny thought. 'Where'd that come from? That was weird.'

"But good weird," she gushed out loud.

With a big smile on her face, Sonny grabbed her idea notebook and settled down to start writing out ideas for sketches.
