Chapter 1: Guess what?
Sonny strolls excitedly into the Mackenzie Falls set looking around for Chad. "Chad... Chad!" she yells out, grinning widely. Every eye turns to look in her direction except the ones she's looking for. "Chad!" she yells again, looking left and right.
Suddenly, she turns to her left as she feels someone tapping her shoulder, but turns to find nobody behind. "Sonny!" Chad yells into her right ear, Sonny jumps and turns to look at him. "I just yelled into your ear, why are you grinning like that?" Chad asks, looking at her suspiciously.
"Chad!" Sonny yells again but before she continues, Chad interrupts her. "Yes Sonny! I know that is my name. The whole world knows that is my name... What is your point?" he asks, bored already.
"Guess what?" Sonny bounces near him out of sheer excitement, not even slightly put down by his apparent boredom.
"You have finally realised that Mackenzie Falls is the best show in the whole world and the So Random show respectfully bows down accepting defeat and quits?" he asks, face full of optimism.
"What? No..." Sonny begins, looking aghast.
"Hmm... You've finally accepted that you're in fact in love with the Chad Dylan Cooper and are here to proclaim that in front of the whole studio, don't worry Sonny, everybody knows... just let it out!" Chad says smugly, controlling laughter.
"Oh Really Chad? Really? NO!" she starts but is again cut midway by Chad.
"Well... you are bored and are here to waste my precious time like you always do?" Chad finishes placing his hands in his pockets.
"What? No..." Sonny begins, looking offended. "Well... I should never have come here then Chad, if I am always wasting your precious time. And I will not in the future come to tell you anything ever!" Sonny finishes, narrowing her eyes at Chad and folding her hands against her chest.
"Fine!" Chad yells, imitating her action.
"Fine!" Sonny yells back.
They both turn their backs to each other and maintain that pose for a while until Chad breaks it.
"Okay yeah Sonny! What's up?" Chad turns toward her.
Sonny turns around, beams at him and rabbit hops to him, all excited again as though nothing ever happened and says, "Guess what?" and when she sees he is about to start off again, cuts him short and says, "That is just a figure of speech! Don't answer... please!"
"Okay understood! Go!" Chad looks at her earnestly, all ears.
"Well, we were all just rehearsing and going about our daily work when Mr. Condor came by to see us with Marshall." she starts of animatedly, grin in place, hands moving all over. "He looked all serious and we thought we were in some kind of trouble, but then..." she pauses for effect. "Guess what he said?" she literally bounces up and down looking expectantly at Chad. Chad looks back with the same expression he has on since she started off.
Sonny still is bouncing for a couple of seconds, Chad still waiting. Then Sonny's shoulders sags and she whines, "Chaaaddd..."
"What Sonny? What did I do now?" Chad whines back.
"I asked you to guess!" she replies.
"Well, just about 2 minutes back you said that was a figure of speech!" he complains.
"Well... not always!" she replies back indignantly.
"Well... I did not know there were such rules!" Chad snaps back.
"Fine!" Sonny says furiously.
"Fine!" Chad growls back.
They're both silent for a while, giving each other dagger looks, when Chad breaks the silence. "So should I guess?"
"No..." Sonny starts. "I'll tell you!" She positions herself in front of him, trying to give the suspense effect before the surprise, all that excitement back in place, it almost made Chad want to roll around laughing.
"So Random! Is to premier in Germany next month and we, the cast are going over next week to Munich for the promotional event!" she finises, out of breath. Sonny grins widely at him, implausible to grin wider and Chad gets his bored expression back on his face.
"What Chad? Don't you have anything to say?" Sonny asks excitedly.
"You came all the way here, yelled out my name so many times that it actually sounds boring now, which was obviously your secret plan and then build it up so much that I actually get curious to know something about what you call a show and tell me this?" Chad looks incredulous.
"What? Oh Chad come on!" Sonny begins, Chad interrupts. "You know when Mackenzie Falls premiered in Germany?" he asks smugly. Sonny huffs and folds her hands tightly against her. Chad continues, "That would be 5 episodes into season 1... we were so popular, we were so much in demand!" he finishes haughtily.
Sonny narrows her eyes at him and asks, "You done Chad?" Before he replies she goes on, "You know... I actually thought you would be happy when I came here and told you..." she finishes looking disappointed.
"Sonny.. Sonny..." Chad drags, "Everything I said is absolutely and completely true..." Sonny interrupts here. "Yes, you also seem to know exactly what to say to someone you just hurt." She finishes sarcastically, disappointment still in place.
"Would you let me finish what I have to say before you..." Chad stars but Sonny again interrupts. "Fine!" she scowls.
Chad sighs and says, "... interrupt." They glare at each other a moment before Chad continues. "As I was saying, Everything I said is absolutely and completely true but that does not mean I am not happy for you... all!" he adds, smiling genuinely.
Sonny's scowl slowly turns upwards as her face breaks into one of her trademark grins. "Really Chad?" she asks sheepishly, looking between the floor and him, dancing in the same spot out of embarrassment.
"Yes Really!" Chad laughs. "And I am going to add to your happy news but which is terrible news for us..." he says shaking his head.
"Oh yeah?" Sonny asks excitedly, not so embarrassed now.
"Mackenzie falls cast is also going to Munich for the season 10 premier of the show next week." he continues, unobservant of Sonny's extra boost of excitement, "This is excellent news for you all, I knew it when I heard it from Mr. Condor. I mean... imagine, travelling with our cast would get enough promotion for your show than what any promotional event would..." he continues still but is now unobservant of Sonny's displeasure written all over her face, "But its terrible for us... I mean, imagining a week with that likes of all of you, our reputation at stake and what not..." Chad was rambling on now unaware of Sonny's now extra boost of fury.
"Oh my God Chad!" Sonny suddenly screams, acting very weirdly: hands, legs and expressions all over the place. "What what?" Chad asks in panic, looking alarmed at her. She was acting either as though she was resisting from drowning or chocking.
"I am being suffocated, I feel asphyxiated because of your big head. It is literally chocking me, pushing me out of the room!" she finishes still carrying on her act. Chad's alarmed eyes slowly turn into narrow slits.
"Really Sonny? Really?" He asks, hands in pocket again. She stops her act, as though it never happened and stares back. "Really Chad!" she replies back, slightly tilting her head sideways and back. They, fourth time now, stare down each other until Sonny suddenly realises something.
"Wait..." she says, her mind slowly working out something. "You already knew about So Random! Being premiered in Germany." It was a statement, not a question. Chad's face takes on a smug grin. "Then why did you pretend as though you did not when I came bounding here to tell you... all those ridiculous guesses and then pretending as though you heard it for the first time..." she stares at Chad with indignation.
"Well mainly because it was so much fun to watch you go through the process..." he laughs remembering it, " and secondly, so that I could get another opportunity to show how awesome my show is compared to your show!" he adds air quotes to the last word and starts laughing, "Not that I need one!" he continues laughing.
"You are such a baby, Chad!" Sonny starts, emphasising each word. "It is absolutely pointless trying to have a nice mature conversation with you. 5 minutes with you and I have become angry, excited and sad. I am terrified about the trip already!" she pretends to shudder and pulls her tongue out at Chad, swiftly turns away from him and starts walking out.
"Already looking forward to it..." chuckles Chad after her.
