Chad adjusted the navy blue tie around his neck. He fixed the collar of his baby blue shirt and winked at his reflection in the mirror. "Tonight's the night, CDC," he told himself aloud as he messed with his sandy blonde hair. He looked at the watch and went to the garage to personally pick up Sonny Monroe in her favorite car, the royal blue Mustang convertible.

When, he ended up at his girlfriend's door, he knocked. "Hey," Sonny said opening the door.

Chad replied, "Hey, yourself." He led her to his car and headed to Sonny's favorite Italian resturaunt. He smiled knowing that everything would change after that night.

He held out the chair for the young lady and gave a nervous smile. "So how's your day?" he asked mentally slapping himself. He frowned, he had been in a relationship with Sonny Monroe for three years, and he was making small talk.

Sonny chuckled and answered, "It was good. We gave a cold reading of our scripts today."

"How'd that go?" he asked as the waitress approached their table.

"Pretty good," she replied. The waitress took their order while the couple kept their full attention on one another. "Tawni is in too, so it is going to be fun," Sonny gabbed happily.

He asked,"How is she? Is she any better than last night?" She let out a contagious laugh and shook her head.

She replied, "She's about the same." She looked at him and smiled, "And we're working with James Conroy again. I mean they work together all the time, and it's just weird." Chad furrowed his brow. Tawni and James had a past relationship, and he wasn't a horrible fellow apart from that he only wanted what he couldn't have, and that was mainly a thing every guy grew out of.

"She just can't win," he said.

"Especially since Conroy's father died," Sonny explained, "He's had to grow up and got things in perspective. He'd be perfect for Tawni except that she's dating Grady." An awful yet wonderful idea hit Chad Dylan Cooper. He could talk to James beforehand to make sure he wouldn't break Sonny's best friend's heart, and then try to get Tawni to break up with Grady for James.

Then Chad's lasagna and Sonny's chicken alfredo arrived. They talked quietly as they enjoyed their dinner as they looked at one another adoringly. After they finished their food and Chad finished his water, a nervous feeling filled him.

"Sonny," he said meeting Sonny's big brown eyes, "You know how my mom and dad moved to New York leaving me in my mansion alone."

"Yeah," she said unsure of where this was leading.

"And I love you, and we've been together for awhile," Chad said clenching his fist in anxiety.

"Yeah," She replied, "are you going to get to the point anytime soon?"

Chad gulped and looked around at the people staring at the Hollywood power couple, "Yes," he said lightly laughing, "I was wondering if you'd like to move in with me." Sonny walked over to her boyfriend and wrapped her arms around him. He stood up and kissed the brunette deeply on the lips. "Is that a yes?" he asked with a smirk.

"It is," She nodded her head into his chest, "I mean I'm at your house more than I am at my apartment." Chad laughed as he picked her up and spun her around. They paid for their dinner and left the resturaunt with Chad's arm around Sonny's waist, and he felt as if he was ontop of the world.
