Hello! Thanks for visiting my brand-new story, SPEAK NOW! It is based on the new Taylor Swift song, Speak Now, so if you listen to it, you'll get a little sneak peak at what is to come. Thanks again, and I'm so excited for this story!

"Sonny, Sonny, Sonny…you make my heart skip a beat every time I look at you." Chad said dreamily. I rolled my eyes. "Chad, that's really sweet of you, but we really need to make some decisions right now." He chuckled. "How can I focus, when today's our 1 year date-a-versary?" "Chad, I love you, but I'm serious….you need to help me decide on what color the balloons should be for the annual Condor Studios prom instead of talking all mushy!" I said, trying to suppress a smile. He shook his hands in front of his face. "Ok, ok, you win. Balloons now, Mushy-talk later." He's such a hopeless romantic!

"Good. Now, should the color scheme be blue and black, yellow and green, or purple and silver?" He started comically tapping his chin for dramatic effect. "Hmmm...Well, we can't go with yellow and green; those are too bright, and purple, silver, and black are too dramatic…" he said, thinking aloud. "Well, this is a TV studio, so it's not like a normal high school. Maybe we should go with something with more of a dramatic feel." I suggested.

"True, but didn't you say that we want to make them feel as normal as possible?" I sighed, realizing I had been defeated. "Touché. Well, what about blue and black?" I asked. "Sounds great to me." He agreed, shaking his head up and down, ever so slightly. "Well, then I guess we're having a Sock Hop Prom Night!" I exclaimed.

"So, we have the soda shop figured out, now on to the crepe paper streamers." I said, going through my mental shopping list, pushing the shopping cart through Party City with Tawni. "I don't know if we should go with streamers, Sonny. I mean, can't we go with something a little more classy,like diamonds hanging from the ceiling, or something?" she suggested. I thought for a second. "Well, maybe not diamonds but we could defiantly go with something similar, like….like twinkle lights!" I smiled at my perfect idea. "Oh, that would be pretty! Great idea!" She exclaimed. "Thanks! We'll just have to make a quick stop at Wal-Mart." Then we headed toward the checkout line. "Would you like to add on a metallic balloon weight for an extra dollar with your Bash-Stash savings card?" "No thanks." I said politely. Once the peppy cashier bagged all of the party supplies, along with many unnecessary comments about each item, they finally got out of Part City. "Ok, Tawn. Off to Wal-Mart!"
