Summer Romance

Chapter One

I do not own Sonny with a Chance.

-Sonny's POV

I closed my eyes for a few seconds, before I opened them and put my palm over them, while searching for my sunglasses in my big, grass green bag. I looked at my watch and realize that I have to wait for another quarter of hour, until the bus will come. I sighed and I sat down on one of the uncomfortable chairs that were in that bus station. My thoughts started immediately to run through my mind – from the day I arrived in Hollywood until now – and how much my life changed in the last couple of days.

It will sound like I'm crazy, but after So Random finished when I was almost eighteen, I quit acting. I moved back in Wisconsin with my mom, but after six months I moved back in Hollywood because it was too boring and simple for me, who I was used with the dizzy and crowded life. I worked in a lot of places, from small cafes to clothes magazines. My last job was in a café, a small place who, somehow, changed my life. In a rainy day, a famous movie director entered there and commanded an expensive coffee. He recognized me in a few seconds, and started to tell me that he needed an actor – someone who will attract attention, and that I was perfect for that. We talked for almost an hour, and after I found out what I will gain from this movie – who sounded like a phone number, not an amount of money - and where are we going to film, I immediately accepted the offer. But after a few seconds - he said something that made my heart run and my mind block.

"You will not believe with who you will work!" He said, his voice was full of excitement.

"Who?" I asked. This thing is getting better and better with every second.

"Chad Dylan Cooper."

These three words are making me shiver wherever I hear them. I instantly refused everything – a summer with my ex-jerkface-hearttrob was the last thing on the earth I wanted. He said that he knows that he is my ex boyfriend, and that maybe, I don't want to work with him, but he really need me for this. After a half of hour in which he almost begged me to do it, and after I realized that in this way I could boost, I finally accepted.

And here I am now, waiting a bus to Miami. I looked at my watch again and I sighed because there was still ten minutes left. I took my phone out of my pocket and started playing Plants vs Zombies until the bus come.

I jumped from the bus seat when I heard a loud sound. I felt a pain in my neck, and I realized that I fell asleep. I saw the doors opening, and I looked on the window. I guess I'm here.

"Excuse me, could you please tell me where are we?" I asked a woman who wanted to get out of the bus.

"Miami sweety, if you don't know where we are then why you got up in this bus?" She responded grumpy.

"Umm, okay, thanks, I guess." I responded, trying to keep my calm.

I took my luggage and get out. I took a deep breath and looked around. I was really nervous, I haven't done this in a long time, and the thought that I will be filming with Chad was making me shiver. Okay, so Jack, the director told me to give him a text when I got there.

To: Jack

From: Sonny

Hey Jack, I'm here. Just come out of the bus. Sonny (:

I sat down on a bench and waited for the reply, who came a few seconds later.

To: Sonny

From: Jack

I'll be there in a few sec. Don't move little star. ;) Jack.

I smiled at the text. I liked that he wanted to make me feel good there, because he know that I will feel a little uncomfortable around Chad. I was deep in my thoughts, when I heard Jack calling me.

"Sonny, dear, you look wonderful!" Jack's voice came from somewhere. I looked around and I saw him getting out of a black convertible. I analyzed him for a few seconds – he was the typical men model who was in his thirties– tall, brown and short hair and brown eyes.

"Jack, it's nice to see you again!" I said trying to seem as cheerful as it was possible at that moment.

"So are you excited? Ready for fun?" He asked opening the car door.

"Yeah." I smiled, entering in the car. "I'm just a little bit scared. I haven't acted in a while." I said.

"Don't worry. If you weren't good at this you hadn't the principal role." He said while driving. "With Chad Dylan Cooper as love interest." If I was eating or drinking something at that moment, I could swear that I would spit all over Jack's expensive car.

"Love interest?" I said half yelling.

"Well, he is perfect for this role. You are perfect. You two have that sparkle that everyone is looking for. You couldn't deny it." He said looking at me for a few seconds.

"I..I don't know. We're too different. That's why we broke up..and I couldn't deny that I still had feeling for him a few months after that. I was.." I smile bittersweet. "I was totally in love with him. But it's too much for me. I thought that maybe his role doesn't have anything in common with mine. I could swear that he will make fun of me, make stupid jokes and tell things like I still want him." I said closing my eyes and putting my hand on my forehead.

"Hey." Jack said as he pulled his convertible in a park lot. "I want to me you feel as great as is possible. I want to give you the best summer ever and I don't want you to treat me like I'm your rough boss. Every time something is bothering you, or you have something on your heart or you just want a friend, you can talk to me. Just enjoy everything and forget about Chad because there are lots of boys on the beach." He said with a soft smile. I looked at him and I nodded – I do trust him. He is really nice and he is right – I shouldn't pay so much attention on Chad.

"Yeah, you're right. Thanks." I responded trying to smile. We got out of the car and we walked on a beautiful alley until he stopped in a front of a hotel. My eyes widen and my jaw almost dropped. It was one of the hotels you see on post cards or on the internet who doesn't seem to be real.

"Are you going to enter or just stay there and stare?" He said smirking and pointing at me. I just nodded and followed him. When we entered, I saw tons of gorgeous, skinny and tanned girls, and I immediately felt uncomfortable in my light pink t-shirt and skinny white jeans. We went to the reception and Jack spoke something to the man that was there, and he gave me a key.

"Here you are Sonny. Room 245. The rest of the cast is partially at the same floor and Chad is at 247." He chuckle at the last part. "You okay? You seem a little scared." He asked putting his hand on my shoulder.

"I'm fine. I just didn't expected to stay at a hotel like..this." I said. He laughed.

"I think you forgot who I am. We're in Miami baby! Everything is possible here." I smiled. "Oh, the rest of the cast is at the hotel pool. You should go there and say hi."

"No thanks." I said laughing.

"Come here." He smiled and took my wrist. We went at the pool, who by the way it was the biggest that I ever seen. There were a few beautiful girls and Jack introduced me to them.

"They are playing in the movie too. I think you will be good friends." He said, and with that, he left. I talked with the girls for, like, ten minutes, and they are pretty cool, but not really my type – they're kind of too superficial.

The girls left after we talked and because I didn't wanted to go with them to get some drinks, I just looked around and then I decided to go inside and check my room. Just when I was about to move my feet, I heard a deep, masculine and attractive voice, who had something familiar in it.

"Sonny Monroe."

I turned around with the speed of the light, and I needed to bit my lip so my jaw didn't drop.

He was freaking gorgeous, and it was no doubt in that. I scanned him from the top of his head to his tippy toes. His hair was perfect – just like the last time I've seen it, just a little bit longer. He was wearing sunglasses, and that why I was dying to see his eyes; he totally worked out, and plus – he was tanned and really toned. He was wearing a white v-neck, with short jeans and he was tall – and I actually liked that. The sun was hitting his back, making me dizzy-

"Okay, I know I'm really sexy but please, Monroe, stop staring like that." He said chuckling. Just great. He noticed that I kind of stared at him. I tried to open my mouth and say something, but it was so dry that I couldn't speak.

"Chad." It was the only monosyllabic word that finally came out of my dry mouth. He smirked and analyzed me.

"What I've done to have such a pleasure to film a movie with you after two years?" He smirked again - and it started to annoy me.

"Wow. You haven't changed." I said bitterly. He laughed.

"Give me a reason that I should change. Everybody loves me just the way I am – you have to admit it, Monroe, I'm almost perfect." He said taking his sunglasses off. And that's when I felt a shock in my entire body. This eyes who made me forget about everything and everyone – this eyes were driving me crazy since I was sixteen, were looking at me.

I turned around angry on myself that I actually thought that he is attractive – and gorgeous.

"I have to go." I mumbled. He caught my wrist and I turned around, looking into his pool eyes.

"What's up Monroe? We talked for, like, two minutes and you already feel intimidated by me?" He said chuckling.

"In your dreams Cooper. You're just annoying me – we can't talk without arguing and I can't stand that." I pulled away, ignoring the fact that I was missing the warm of his hand, when I felt him catching my wrist again.

"Will you stop doing this?" I asked pointing to his hand. He came closer to me.

"You started everything." He smirked at me and let my hand down.

"Yes, of course I always start something – you're never guilty. Anyway, I'm a lady, so I can finish this, right now." I said crossing my arms on my chest. He laughed and looked at some girls who were passing by us. I rolled my eyes.

"You like to finish things, right Monroe?" He said on a weird tone. My eyes widen and I opened my mouth to protest, but he cut me off.

"Bye-bye Monroe" He winked at me and then he left. I can't believe he just did that – he is such a jerk.

He won this time – but the summer has just begun.
