Marriage-Hood

Chapter Two

So, here I stood in front of door: 24- of Chad Dylan Coopers' apartment. I'm scared to witness what is on the other side of the door, that I'll be at for the month ahead of me. Anything could happen- like Chad said.

My hands were sweating, and my teeth were chattering, and my legs felt like jello. This was not a good situation for me. When I become nervous, I become a whole new Sonny. Trust me, my mom knows what I mean when I say that.

Speaking of her, when I went home after work, to pack my whole wardrobe, and other acessories, she sat me down, and gave me the talk.

The talk is so embarrassing for you, and the person telling you it. I sat there for an hour, listening to my mom pour her heart out on the topic. It was all about how hormonal teenages, alone in a place, can change their actions, and feelings that they are witnessing. She said that I should fight off any feelings, or thoughts that come into my mind when I look at a guy; or in this case, Chad.

But, from what she was saying, there was no way I was going to get turned on, or become lustfull from Chad. He was just... Chad. I mean, sure he is okay looking, and has very blue eyes, that can distract you but, that doesn't mean I will cave or anything. If anyone is going to become turned on, it's going to be Chad, over me. Not that I want him to or anything.

But back to reality, Chad looked over at me, and smirked. "You ready to witness the Chad Cave." He said pointing towards the closed door. "Are you calling yourself a wild animal, that lives in a cave?" I asked laughing at his choice of words. "Oh Munroe, I can be an animal... a very uncontrollable one." He said with a wink. I turned away from him feeling nervous again. There he goes again with that flirting. "Pervert." I hissed through my teeth. "Oh you know you like it, but it's just a joke." He said smiling at me.

I kept quiet, and waited for him to unlock the door. He pulled out a key from his pocket, then stuck it through the door-knob. The door opened, and he walked inside flipping the light-switch on. I followed behind, and studied my new home.

I was frozen in spot, looking around the lay-out in front of me. There was a black leather couch in the corner of the room, with a plasma in front of it, and a coffee table in front of the plasma. There was little tables on each side of the couch, with pictures of Chad from when he first started Mackenzie Fall's. And yes, I use to watch the show, until I found out how big of a jerk Chad is. The apartment also had hardwood floor, with a light shade of wood. The ceiling was pretty high, and the walls were white.

Chad started to walk to a door that was in the far left corner, opened it, and went inside. I decideed to follow behind him, just incase I got lost. When I opened the door, I saw Chad drinking a glass of water, on a bar stool. I looked around his kitchen. It had hardwood floors too, and white walls. The cabnints were wood, and the refrdigerater, oven, and microwave were all black, and shiny. There was also a island in the middle of the kitchen, where the bar stools stood behind it.

"You like it? I try to keep my place simple, because my parents live in a mansion, with a bunch of details, so I get tired of that." Chad said putting his now empty glass in the sink. I smiled at him, and nodded my head not speaking. His house was cozy, and would definetly be something I'd be living in when I turn 18. Which will be in three months.

"Here, I'll show you the rest of the apartment." He said going exiting through the same door we enterned in. I followed behind him, as we walked through a hallway, then stopped in front of a door. He opened it, and stepped inside. I walked in, and looked around the room.

It had white carpet, and had a white leather couch in the corner with two pillows on each end of it. On the other side of the room, there was a bed. It looked queen size, and it had a white plain comforter. There was a night-stand on the left side of it, with a clock on it. There was also another plasma in front of the bed. It looked like a nice room too, not to crowded, and also color-coded.

"This is my room. The couch has a pull-out bed in it, that's about a full size. You can have my bed, and I'll sleep on the pull-out." Chad said looking at me. I was shocked. Chad was going to let me, a guest, sleep in his bed. "Chad are you sure, I mean, I could always sleep on the pull-out." I said. He chuckled, then walked over to the couch, and sat down. "Sonny, you are the girl, and I'm not going to put you on a couch." Chad said settling in the couch to be comfortable. I went over to the couch, and sat down next to him.

"Okay. And Chad," I said looking at him. He had his eyes close, but they slowly opened as I said his name. "Yeah?" He asked. "Thanks. You know, for being a gentalman." I said. He sat up, and put a hand on my knee. "No worries Munroe. Anyways, it's getting kind of late, you want something to eat?" He asked standing up. I stood up with him, and streached. "Sure." I said walking out the door, to the kitchen for Chad to follow.

I got the the kitchen, and sat down on the bar stool. A few seconds past, and Chad entered, and went straight the the refridgerater. He pulled out a frozen pizza from the freezer, and placed it in the oven, and typed in a number. When he was done he went back over to the refridgerater, and pulled out a few drinks. "What do you want to drink? We have, orange juice, milk, pepsi, tea, and water." He said looking at me. "Water is fine. I'll be up all night if I drink tea, or pepsi." I stated. He got two glasses, and filled them both with water, then sat down next to me.

"It'll be done in like, fifteen minutes. So we can just chill in the living room, or jsut sit here, and talk." He said taking a sip of his water. "Let's talk." I said taking a sip of my water as well. "About what?" He asked putting his full attention on me. "Well, what exactly do we have to do for this whole marriage thing?" I asked. "I guess we go on dates, and shop together." Chad said. I blushed at the word 'date.' "True. So when should we, you know, start these things?" I asked. He smirked at me, and took my hand in his. "Sonny, will you go out with me on a date, tomorrow night?" He asked. I blushed, and took my hand back. "Duh you silly, it's kind of part of the whole assignment." I said. He nodded his head, and took another sip of his water.

After thirty minutes past, we were both sitting on the living room couch watching t.v. We were both stuffted, eating a whole pizza by ourselves. I yawned, and Chad looked over at me. "Want to go to bed?" He asked sitting up a little. I nodded my head, and we walked towards his bedroom.

When we got in there, Chad started to pull off his shirt. Once it was completely off, he turned towards me. "You gonna get out of those clothes are not?" He asked reaching for his pants. I put my hands up, and looked away. "Chad! Don't change in front of me!" I said running towards my suitcase, and pulled out my pajama's. I heard him chuckle at my reaction. But, I did get a little glance at his toned-out chest. Stop it Sonny! You can't cave, or fall into his trap. I shook my head, and walked into the bathroom, on the right side of the bed. I got in, and changed into my pajama's.

After a few minutes, I came out, and saw the pull-out bed made up, with a relaxed Chad in it. I gave him a small smile, and walked over to my bed, and got in it, pulling the covers over me.

"Munroe," Chad called out. I looked over at him, and saw he had his eyes closed. "Uh, yeah?" I asked. "Tomorrow we don't have to go into the studio, so that means we get to sleep in. I hope you don't fit your name in the morning, because I don't like getting up early." Chad said opening his eyes, and looking at me.

I smiled at Chad, and sat back again. "Trust me Chad, neither am I, so let's make a deal, and both sleep in." I said relaxing into the bed. "Will do Munroe, will do." Chad said quietly. After a few minutes of silence, I thought Chad was asleep, so I turned onto my side, how I usually sleep. "Goodnight Sonny," Chad said into the silence. "Night Chad." I said falling into a deep sleep.
