Wow! I think you are all awesome! Did you catch that reference??? Hm…maybe I'm a little too obsessive of Sonny With a Chance. Not that that's a bad thing! Haha, so thanks for reading this story and I am excited for you to read this chapter! Read on…

Sonny POV

I hummed quietly as I straightened my latest wig onto a mannequin in the prop room. This was definitely a life I could live for the rest of eternity! If only there weren't an egotistical Chad Dylan Cooper running around all the time, ordering people around and freaking out over his hair gel…I wondered if he would ever ask me to show him how to see. It had already been three weeks.

But, this weekend would be busy enough to keep me from thinking about him! My mom was visiting the studio tomorrow and we were going shopping for a dress. I needed one for the Teeny Bopper awards that were going to happen in a week and mom insisted that she come along since she couldn't for the Oh No You Di-n'ts! I felt bad, so I agreed, and she was already cutting coupons.

I walked out of the prop room and headed out to the golf cart. Tawni had sent me to get some Fro-Yo about ten minutes ago and if I didn't get back soon, she'd probably accuse me of trying to starve her.

The ignition on the little cart buzzed and I checked behind for any tourists. No one was there and I scooted right out of the parking pot. The breeze of the open cart cooled down me off and I sighed contently.

"WHAAAAOOOH!!!" My eyes snapped open and I slammed my foot down on the brake. It was Chad and he looked scared to death.

"Oh, my gosh! Are you okay, Chad?! I am sooooo sorry!! I just wasn't looking at you and…I'm sorry." He seemed to calm down a bit, but he was still a little out of breath. I stood there waiting for him to say something in return. "Chad, are you…okay?"

"Uhh, yeah. Just give me a second. I don't have a life threatening experience every day." I chuckled and opened my mouth to apologize again, but he beat me to it. "Sonny, I didn't mean to jump right out in front of you. I, well, you see, I'm…" He trailed off and shrugged at me.

"Sorry?" I suggested. He nodded, grimacing. I let out a full giggle now, and his lips turned up into the tiniest of smiles.

"I don't think I've ever had to say that before. It was weird. But yeah, I am. Kind of." I rolled my eyes and he continued. "You know, it's funny, I came to ask you to help me 'see' and you didn't even see me!" His laughter was contagious, but his words sunk in and my mouth dropped open.

"You mean to say that you want my help? And you're willing to learn something from me?!" He nodded. "Okay, Chad Dylan Cooper, get ready to see!"

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-

"Where are we going?!" Chad yelped as he stumbled over a cord. I was taking him somewhere for his first 'lesson'. Unfortunately, he was being more grumpy now, telling me that I was going to break one of his million-dollar bones and he'd sue me. I just continued on, ignoring him. Finally we arrived at the coffee cart. He just looked at me as if he were saying, "What the heck?!"

I shook my head and asked him to go and order me a mocha latte. He raised his eyebrows, but grabbed his wallet and stepped forward. "Hi, excuse me? I'd like to order-" His voice broke off as the cart cashier turned around. "Yikes!" He practically shouted.

I slapped his arm and stepped up to the counter beside him. "Hi Edna! This is Chad. We're here for the job." She smiled sweetly at me and gave Chad a look.

"Of course, darlin'! Thanks for coming to help. Frank is going in for his surgery today, and I couldn't find anyone to take over!Just give me a minute to find a spare apron…" She hobbled off, into a room across the parking lot.

"What are we doing?!" Chad screeched quietly. His eyes were bugged out of his head and I frowned at him, shaking my head. "And who's Frank? Is he like that…woman?"

This time I yelled at him. "Chad, you know nothing about Edna, and I'm volunteered to help run her cart for today to help out. You don't need to mock her!"

"But she looks…" He trailed off and I sighed.

"She doesn't look any different than me or you. I think that Edna is beautiful." In truth, if I were judging based on looks alone, Edna is probably the most hideous lady ever to grace Hollywood. Her teeth are almost all gone, her hair is balding, her clothes are always dingy and not up-to-date, and she has some serious B.O. On the other hand, she is the most selfless, intelligent, soft-spoken, honest, and caring woman I have ever met! That is what I want Chad to realize. Watching Chad work at a Coffee Shoppe cart wouldn't be too hard, though, either…

"Whatever you say." Chad turned back to the cart. "So how long are we working here today? A half an hour? An hour?"

I gave him my best glare. "No, Chad, we're going to be here until eight o'clock tonight. Edna has something to do, but if you really want to find out, ask her." He huffed at me and I stood there. Nico came up to the stand and Chad quickly hopped behind the cart, ducking down below eye level.

"Hey, Nico!" I greeted him. "What can I get for you?"

"I'll have a double espresso. Uh…what are you doing here, anyways?"

I smiled and said, "Edna has to leave for today, so I told her that Chad and I would take over."

"Oh, that's cool!" Nico handed me a five. "Wait, did you say CHAD is working here?" He certainly didn't try to hide his surprise.

"Yes, he is. He and I are helping out for the day. I'll get off at eight if you guys all want to rehearse our sketch. Sound good?" He nodded and I handed him the espresso.

"See ya, Sonny!" He said walking towards our dressing rooms. "Bye, Chad," he called over his shoulder, "have fun!" I laughed quietly.

Chad fell over and looked up at me, incredulous. "Why did you tell him I was here? Chad Dylan Cooper does not work!"

I groaned at him and looked at my watch. "Uh-oh! Sorry, Chad! I have to go get that Fro-Yo to Tawni before she gets even more upset. I'll be back in a little bit. Please listen to Edna and don't…well, just be nice, okay?" He just looked at me, so I figured I'd better go before he refused.

When I reached the Fro-Yo machine, I started to wonder if I did the right thing.

When I walked up to the cart, an hour later, I was very surprised at what I saw. Chad was taking a bill from a young girl and smiling at her. Then he turned around and fixed her drink. He handed her the drink. And he was still smiling! This was definitely a good idea.

I approached the cart and Chad looked at me, smiling hesitantly. "Hey, Sonny. I didn't mean to freak out at you before. Why didn't you tell me about Edna? I understand now, but if you would've just told me in the first place, I wouldn't have given you any trouble."

I grinned at him. " I take it you talked to her. Chad, I couldn't have told you that on my own. It wasn't my story to tell. Edna had to be the one to tell you about it."

"But her husband could die tonight! He's having pancreatic surgery, for goodness' sake! I could have been a little nicer to her!"

"I'm glad you see that now, Chad. That's what I wanted you to realize. If I hadn't known her and what had happened, you wouldn't have ever agreed to work here. But, because you had to take over for her, you learned something about her that you didn't know when you first met. If I hadn't done this, you probably would have just dismissed her as an ugly person trying to catch a break, right?"

He nodded slowly. I continued, "I wanted you to see that she was different. Did you?"

"Yes, she's stunning on the inside. You're probably…"

"Right?" I offered.

"I suppose so... are you back to work now?"

I snickered. "Yes, Chad, I'm ready to save you from spilling coffee on your flawless uniform. Ready to get to work?"

He smiled at me strangely. I blushed, for some weird reason, but held his gaze. "Sure," he responded. This would be an interesting night.

Wow! This is a pretty long chapter. Well, longer than the prologue, at least…thank you for reading! I am excited to see what you all think! Let me know! Also, this isn't the end, if you were wondering. I'm still planning about 6-8 more chapters. It helps when people review, though, and then I get an idea of what I'm doing well and what I need to improve on. Thanks again! Have a great day! Or night!
