"great practice guys, I love that new sketch", Marshall exclaimed clapping his hands. "I'lle see you guys on monday ok? 9:00 o'clock sharp because we need extra practice if we want that sketch finished by the show on Monday night", he said
"Sure, See ya later" Nico and Grady waved and walked off
"Yeah bye", Zora called leaving the room so Sonny and Tawni were left to walk back to their dressing room.
"So what are youre plans for the weekend Hun?", Tawni asked adjusting her jacket so it hung always looked perfect though, Its like she was made for showbusiness, Sonny thought to herself.
"I dont know, but My Mom's out of town all weekend so I'm probably just gonna pick up a few things at the mall and relax at home", Sonny said
"Oh Hun, wont you be lonely? I'd offer to be with you but I'm out of town all weekend", Tawni said
"Its ok Tawn", Sonny said smiling, To Tawni that weekend seemed totally boring, but Sonny was quite looking foward to it.
"So what about y..", Sonny started before suddenly turning the corner and bumping straight into Chad and knocking him down to the floor.
"Watch it Munroe", Chad smiled, keeping his cool as her body brushed against his sending tingles all around his body, when all he really wanted to do was.. well there was a lot Chad wanted to do to Sonny but those thoughts would ALWAYS be kept too himself. Chad Dylan Cooper, the teenage heart-throb all across America could get practically any girl he wanted. He could treat them anyway he wanted and get away with it. But not Sonny, thats what bugged him so much about this girl. She was so sexy, and the fact he couldnt get her, made her even sexier. But that wasnt the only reason. Chad had always just used girls for repuation and sex. But Sonny, she was different to him in so many ways. She was his first proper crush, He had true feelings for her deep inside, and however bad he wanted it, the thought of using her for sex made him feel horrible. He wanted a proper relationship with her, and someday he was hoping it would happen.
"Oh man, Sorry Chad are you ok?", Sonny said blushing and stepping to the side her body tensing. She had feelings for Chad too. There feelings were just unknown to each other. Sometimes she thought he could be a right jerk but there was something totally irrestible about that guy. And many times she had seen his sweet side come out.
"Yeah I'm fine", he said rejecting Sonny's hand to help him up and walking off round the corner quickly, his face red.
"Whats up with him?", Sonny asked, a puzzled look on her face.
"Isnt it obvious enough Sonny? he has feelings for you", Tawni sighed
"Why do you say that?", Sonny asked, blushing
"You mean you didnt see?" Tawni said
"See what?", Sonny said confused
"Wow Hun, you're a bit slow sometimes",Tawni said linking arms with her
"Oh my God Tawni, just tell me!", Sonny shouted
"Aww Sonny, you're hopeless, but thats why I'm here for you. He had a boner hun", Tawni explained
"What? no he didnt? how do you know anyway?", Sonny said raising her voice
"Hun, I've been with loads of guys, there's signs you know. You don't have to stare at their crotch. He had that look on his face, and believe me, I know that look", Tawni said
"Well that doesnt prove anything", Sonny said stopping, and folding her arms
"Yes Sonny, it does. And he untucked his shirt. Why would he do that on the floor otherwise?", Tawni said
"What? no. Chad ALWAYS untucks his shirt", Sonny exclaimed
"Man Sonny, you're thick", Tawni said putting her head in her hands, "Why do you think he does it all the time? its only ever since YOU got here!", she said. Sonny thought about it for a second. It did seem to make perfect sense
"Are you serious? you really think he likes me?" Sonny said. She couldnt help smiling
"Yes!", She exclaimed. Then she saw Sonny's face "Oh... wait.. what? You like him?", Tawni whispered disgusted at her friend
"What noo, who said that", Sonny lied
"Sonny, dont lie to me, I know you like the back of my hand", Tawni exclaimed, "You like him"
"Ok... Well maybe just a little, oh come on Tawni, dont look at me like that!", Sonny said
"But he's a jerk, You could do soo much better than him", Tawni said
"But I like him, you wouldnt have a problem with that right?", Sonny asked
"Well.. No, but Sonny, don't ok?" She said, "I dont wanna see you get hurt"
"Why would I be hurt?", Sonny asked confused
"Oh babes you obviously dont know Chad", She said, opening the door to the dressing room, throwing her bag down and searching in her drawer for a lipgloss. Sonny sat down on the couch.
"So tell me", She said
"You know he's not a good guy right?", Tawni sighed
"Whats wrong with him?", Sonny asked
"Whats wrong? Lets just say a lot Sonny. He's a womanizer. He picks up girls he thinks are hot, has sex with them and then never calls them back. Who knows? he could just treat you the same", Tawni said
"Tawni, he's changed", She said
"I know, I know, but its easy to slip back", She said "Anyway, whatever happens, happens so just be careful ok? dont let that jerk use you", She said
"He's not a jerk Tawn", She said
"Whatever Hun, just please be careful. I gotta run. see you on Monday", She said hugging her friend "Call me anytime babes", she said as she picked up her bag and left the room.
Sonny began tidying her dressing room, something she did at the end of every week. So many of her possesions ended up here she needed 2 or 3 bags to take them home every weekend. After an hour of tidying she was about ready to leave the studio. But first she had to go to the bathroom. She walked along the hall thinking about what had happened before. Maybe Tawni was right. Maybe Chad wasnt as different as Sonny thought. He did seem to give off the impression sometimes that he could be a womanizer. The funny thing was though. He'd tried it out with everyone apart from Sonny herself. Sonny just couldnt make her mind up. She pushed open the door of the stall and tried to clear her mind.
"Yes Mom, Im ok, Yes im on my way home", Sonny reassured her Mom into her cellphone.
"Have a good weekend Mom, Sorry I have to go, Bye", Sonny said. She was almost back at her dressing room when she heard a weird noise. Someone crying she thought. Curious to know what was going on, she followed the noise until she was at a door. Chad's dressing room.
'Chad? Crying? something must be really wrong', Sonny thought to herself
"Hey Chad, can I come in?", She asked knocking on the door
"Im not in the mood for talking Sonny", Chad groaned, His voice sounded awful. Sonny couldnt bear to leave someone alone like this. Especially Chad.
"Im coming in ok?", Sonny said. Chad really didnt want her to see him like this, but he didnt protest. He really needed some comforting right now. Sonny had never seen Chad's dressing room before. It was huge, There was defiantly no question about who's show had the most luxuries. Chad was sitting on the floor, hunched up in a ball. Tears were dripping out of his crystal blue eyes and for the first time ever he didnt look perfect. When he saw Sonny he cried harder, he was almost hysterical. She hated seeing him like this. She ran over
"Oh Chad, Chad, Shhh dont cry", Sonny whispered comfortingly, crouching down next to him and putting her arms round him. Chad couldnt believe that Sonny was hugging him and comforting him, She was so close he could smell her. That irrestible smell. Chad thought to himself. But right now he was too upset to enjoy it. Somehow though, he was starting to feel more comforted knowing that Sonny cared for him.
"Whats wrong? They cancel Mack falls?", Nico laughed from the corridor
"Nico! Don't be a jerk! This is serious.. and close the door!", Sonny shouted pulling Chad closer and telling him everything was alright.
"Whatever", Nico said, slamming the door behind him.
"Shh, come on its ok! do you want to tell me whats wrong Chad?", Sonny said turning her attention back to the blonde-haired actor in her arms. This reminded Chad what he was actually upset about in the first place and he started crying even harder.
"Oh Chad, shh Im so sorry! Shhh come on, calm down", Sonny soothed stroking his hair. Chad usually hated people messing up his hair but when Sonny did it he didn't care at all. The Brunette actress carried on rocking him in her arms and stroking his hair for ages until he had finally calmed down.
"Im..Sorry... about that ..Sonny", Chad sobbed
"Aww Dont worry Chad, it's ok, we can keep this between you and me", Sonny comforted
"Thanks", Chad said his perfect blue eyes staring into Sonny's eyes, "And Sonny, I'm sorry I used to be such a jerk too you. After all you've done for me", Chad said with true love for her in his voice
"Well, thats what I'm here for", Sonny laughed and was pleased when she saw Chad smiling a little.
"Feeling better?", She asked
"Yeah, much better", He said
"Chad, I'm a good listener. If you want to talk about your problems I'm listening", Sonny said, putting a hand on his shoulder.
"Well i guess its good to get them out", He said, "You see, I was meant to be spending the weekend with my Mom, she was gonna come get me. But I get a phonecall and its like.. "Im sorry, something has come up, and Mrs Cooper is unable to see you". I get a message from her bloody secertary. Thats all I'm worth to her!", Chad said angrily, raising his voice. "So anyway, I thought about all the other times she's done this. Eighteen times Sonny! Eighteen times she's rejected me for something else. I havent seen her in almost a year, its like I don't have a Mom anymore", Chad said, a tear rolling down his face.
"Oh Chad", Sonny said, feeling close to tears herself
"And you know what, She pretends to be so interested in my show but everytime, there's a premiere or a nomination she doesnt come! She only cares about the money!", Chad exclaimed.
"I really dont know what to say", Sonny said
"I'm sorry Sonny, you know what. Its ok, she's not even worth it anyway",Chad said standing up and picking up his bags. He stopped all of a sudden
"Oh fuck!", Chad said
"What?", Sonny asked, suprised
"Thats bloody great, Im going to have to stay here all weekend! I thought I'd be staying with my Mom so I lent out my house to my sister for the weekend, Shes having a huge party, Theres no way Im going there. I'lle have to stay in a hotel. Do you think you could drive me Sonny? My car's at the garage", Chad said. Sonny thought about this, She did not want to leave Chad alone after he had been so upset.
"Chad, do you want to come stay at mine tonight? My Mom's out of town so its pretty quiet", Sonny asked
"Really Sonny? You really want me too?", Chad asked delighted.
"Sure, It would be nice to have someone to keep me company anyway", Sonny smiled
"Why are you being so nice to me Sonny?", Chad asked
"Because you're a nice guy, and I think we could be good friends if we got to know each other properly", Sonny explained
"Thank you Sonny, that means a lot", Chad said putting his hand on her shoulder. The brunette actress felt excitement rushing through her body. Chad Dylan Cooper, the guy she had been crushing on for months would be staying at her house!
"No problem, I'lle meet you at my car ok? I just need to get some things from my dressing room", Sonny said and rushed down the corridor. Chad was now left standing alone trying to contain his excitement. Sonny Munroe, possibly the hottest girl alive had invited him over! who knows what could happen! Chad thought to himself as he picked up his bags and joined Sonny in the parking lot.
