"Sonny, I-I'm sorry. I just don't think we will work anymore." Chad said, staring down at his feet.
"What are you trying to say, Chad? Are you breaking up with me?" I replied, my voice getting high.
"We just weren't meant for each other. I'm sorry." And with that, Chad Dylan Cooper walked out of the room, and out of my life. Although this was a pain I had never felt before, and I was heartbroken, I refused to cry. And the worst part is that I loved him. I was in love with him, and all he did was break my heart.
We had been broken up for 6 months. Chad never talked to me. I thought he was better than that. We dated for a year, and I thought I knew him. As I sat there in the cafeteria, Chad walked in. He always had a graceful quality to him. It was simple and perfect in every way. The way he glided into a room with confidence, the way he smiled and laughed, and just the mere sound of his voice was enough to make me feel the pain I had felt all those months ago. And it seemed like he didn't even care about me. I sighed and turned back to my cast mates, who were planning the next sketch.
"…and then we could get a bunch of scorpions!" Zora was saying.
"Zora, I don't think it's possible to put scorpions in a sandwich." Nico said with a smile.
"Oh you're no fun!" Zora replied and threw a French fry at Nico.
"How about we do a Tawni Town sketch? It will show everyone how pretty I am!" Tawni said while looking in a mirror. We all sighed. Tawni had been trying to get a Tawni Town for as long as I could remember. Just then a voice came on the intercom.
"Will the cast of So Random! and Mackenzie Falls please report to Mr. Condor's office." When we arrived in his office, I leaned against the wall. Chad sat in a chair in front of me. I sighed.
"Hello. As you all know, Mackenzie Falls and So Random! are having their series finales this week. To celebrate, we are throwing a Hollywood party tonight. So everybody better be red carpet ready tonight at 8. You will have to share a limo. You can leave now." Mr. Condor said. We all got up and walked out. I decided to use this as my chance to talk to Chad. Maybe he was done ignoring me.
"Hey Chad! Excited about the party?" I asked with my Sonniest smile on my face.
"Ya." He replied. That was it. He walked away from me to go talk to Portlyn. I rolled my eyes and crossed my arms. Then, I felt an arm around my shoulder. It was Tawni.
"Don't worry about him. He's nothing. And he's just a jerk." She said. For being so self-centered, Tawni could actually care sometimes. I rested my head on her shoulder and kept walking back to my dressing room.
When I got to my dressing room, I sat down at my desk and pulled out a piece of paper. I was good at writing songs, and I was pretty good at singing. So I sat there and wrote. When I was done, I smiled at my product. I looked at my phone and the time said 6:15. Crap! I have to get ready!
At 8 o'clock I was ready and beautiful. I was wearing a Herve Leger cocktail dress that was off-the-shoulders. It had horizontal stripes that were different shades of black and gray. I wore my hair wavy with my bangs stopping just before my eyes. When I saw Tawni, she was wearing a stunning red dress.
"You look great!" I said to her.
"Well of course! I'm always pretty!" she replied. I gave her a look and she said "And I guess you look really pretty too. But not prettier than me!" Well, that's the best I would get out of Tawni.
When we arrived at the club, there were photographers everywhere! I noticed that Chad walked in with his arm around Portlyn. The paparazzi would surely be calling them the new 'it' couple. I rolled my eyes at the thought. I smiled into the cameras and signed a few autographs before I went inside. The club looked amazing. There were strobe lights everywhere and the stage was incredible. It had a band and a DJ. The speakers were booming and everyone was dancing. Well, if you could call what they were doing dancing. More like grinding. My eyes swept over the whole crowd, and then back to the stage. That's when I got my idea. I walked up to the stage and grabbed a microphone. I asked the DJ to cut the music, and he gladly obliged. I then said "Excuse me everyone! I'd like to sing a little song that I wrote. It's dedicated to my ex." At the word 'ex' I heard a chorus of murmurs. "Is she talking about Chad?" and "How long ago did they break up?" I rolled my eyes again. I was doing that a lot lately. I scanned the audience and found just the person I was looking for. Chad. I told the band to just follow me as I went. Then, I began the song that I had written earlier.
Did you forget
That I was even alive
Did you forget
Everything we ever had
Did you forget
Did you forget
About me
Did you regret
Ever standing by my side
Did you forget
What we were feeling inside
Now I'm left to forget
About us
But somewhere we went wrong
We were once so strong
Our love is like a song
You can't forget it
So now I guess
This is where we have to stand
Did you regret
Ever holding my hand
Never again
Please don't forget
Don't forget
We had it all
We were just about to fall
Even more in love
Than we were before
I won't forget
I won't forget
About us
But somewhere we went wrong
We were once so strong
Our love is like a song
You can't forget it
Somewhere we went wrong
We were once so strong
Our love is like a song
You can't forget it
At all
And at last
All the pictures have been burned
And all the past
Is just a lesson that we've learned
I won't forget
I won't forget us
But somewhere we went wrong
Our love is like a song
But you won't sing along
You've forgotten
About us
And after that, I couldn't hold in my pain. All the tears that I refused to cry came out right there. The audience was silent. But all eyes weren't on me anymore. They were on Chad. I ran off the stage with tears streaming down my face. I didn't want to face the paparazzi with tears, so I went over to a quiet area with chairs. I sat down and put my head in my hands. Then, I felt a hand on my shoulder.
"Sonny?"
