This chapter is kinda... can you say cliche? First I was so surprised with all the author alerts/favorites and the one review from lalawriter2000! Short, sweet and the most inspiration that could ever be packed into two words =)

But about this chapter... I like the plot in concept but leave me a review and tell me how you think I played it out! I also tried to make Sonny not desperately in love but more like a crush. The desperate love part will develop in the O_o sequel! Oh yeah, i went der... Lol all fingers crossed for a sequel!

Chapter 3: Text Fire

Sonny sat in her dressing room, slumped on Tawni's chaise lounge. It had been a hectic day since this morning with Chad.

First she had rushed for hours to pack her belongings, keeping in mind: two weeks, a tropical island, and impressing Chad Dylan Cooper. Ugh, she thought, I so wish i could scratch out the last one! But he's turning out to be a really sweet guy, AND i just found out that our shows don't have much of a rivalry after all!

But her hectic day hadn't ended then. Tawni was also packing, an that meant trying on every outfit for Sonny's input. She was waiting for Tawni to re-emerge and decided to fire off a quick text to her ex-boyfriend and another to Chad (her future one, fingers crossed!)

She decided to start with Chad, In reply to his last text (So we're good?) After they had sent many "Good"s and "Fines"

Thanks for earlier. Both things if you know what i mean ;) Seeya round, maybe on a private island, if ya'know what i mean =) lol

PS: Oh we're so good now! u r officially forgiven 4 everything jerkthrob uv ever dun, u were so sweet today!

It was going out on a limb with being flirty, but she'd give it a shot. When Sonny Munroe was on a mission, she played to win. She pressed send when Tawni emerged in her bathing suit.

"I thought you already HAD a purple bikini, Tawni." Sonny said incredulously.

"But this one's a halter!" She protested. The blonde silenced at Sonny's glare. "Ok, ok. Just one more!"

If Tawni kept this up she was going to go bonkers, thought the bubbly brunette. Maybe she could turn to Chad on the vacation when Tawni was crazy, Zora was hiding, and Nico and Grady were using cheesy pick-up lines on the girls. Sonny rolled her eyes and started her text to her -ex, Zach. It was a reply to a text he had sent a while back regarding wanting her back. This morning she would have obliged all too gladly, but after the whole Chad thing, she couldn't kid herself anymore. Her early-So Random! crush on Chad had re-emerged.

Never cared for you much. We hate each other remember? All we ever do is argue. To be clear, the highest we'll EVER go is the "friend zone."

She tapped a button and clicked her phone off with a satisfied smirk.

"How about this one?" Tawni sceam-asked. Running out of the dressing room.

Chad sat at his dressing table looking over his suitcases. When, suddenly, he got a text from Sonny. His heart raced for a second. Until, that is, he actually opened the text. His mouth opened. Checking again and again to make sure this was Sonny. His Sonny. There was no way she'd say something like that.

He looked back at his suitcases, rethinking the vacation he had hoped would be fun. Pshhht, yeah right!

"Ok this one, this one or that one." Tawni said, pointing to three identical silver necklaces.

Sonny slapped her hand over her eyes. Then she pulled it off slowly, sighed, and put on a sickeningly sweet smile. "Tawni," she started, "How about you take EVERYTHING you'd like, and you can have half of one of my suitcases. Since we're only allowed to take three?"

Tawni sighed. "Ok, good idea. But go ask Chad if you can borrow one of his BIG designer suitcases. My stuff can't handle NOT being in a logo."

I pushed myself off the couch and trudged over to Chad's room. On the way i passed blissfully oblivious Nico and Grady, doing whatever it is they're always doing. I also ran into Zora, with whom i exchanged a short greeting and small talk. When i arrived at the dressing room, I saw Chad overlooking three big some-brand-name-or-other suitcases. And an empty one on the floor next to him. Perfect, now I can spend more time with Chad and less time looking for a suitcase, and Tawni won't wonder where I've gone.

Sonny stood at the doorway, brushing down her skirt and running her fingers through her hair. This is really out-of-character for me, how un-Sonny-ish! Get ahold of yourself Munroe! She put on a big smile and pinched her cheeks.

"Hey Chad!" She started, putting her hands behind her back.

"Sonny." He acknowledged curtly, without even glancing up. "Whatever, just take it."

Sonny opened her mouth but Chad beat her to it. "Blondie called."

"Thanks. But, um, what's wrong with you?" I asked, honestly and very confused. I thought back to what I'd done to make him cross with me. "I don't know why you're being short with me, Chad, I mean, I sent you a thank-you text."

Chad chuckled sarcastically, "You call that a thank-you text?" He said in the same harsh tone of voice.

"Chad Dylan Cooper, WHAT is the matter with you?" Suddenly i got a text from Zach. I opened it quickly and glanced down.

Hey Sunshine, anytime. A private island? I like the way you think ;)

I gasped and shut my eyes before cringing. Craaaaaaaaap. "Chad, this is so NOT what you think."

"Sure, Sonny" he said defeatedly, not in a mood to argue. However, his tone became arrogant once more, "Sonny, just take the stupid suitcase and go back to your show."

"Chad, you would have every right to be mad at me, but----" She explained everything. From texting to Tawni, and pretty soon they had dropped off Tawni's suitcase and were on their way to the cafeteria for coffee and fro-yo.

"Wait, so you're saying Nike and Gravy actually thought the clock was a time-machine?" Chad said, draining his coffee.

"Yeah, they totally thought they were in the future when they opened to door to your stage!" Sonny cracked up.

"And you boyfriend still doesn't believe that you weren't texting him?" Chad said, near hysterics.

Sonny doubled over with laughter.

"See," said Chad, "He shares the same name as Zac Efron, he has to be stupid and evil."

"Yeah, he's a jerk."

"Oh My God, PLEASE don't tell me his last name is Efron."

"It's Elton." Sonny said. They looked at each other and started laughing again. "Oh, and he also---"

She was cut off by the loudspeaker. Will Stages 1, 2, 3 and 4 ---- I repeat ----- Hoosier Girl, Mackenzie Falls, So Random! and Meal or No Meal; please report to the cafeteria for a meeting with Mr. Condor. Be there in 5 minutes or the doors will lock and you will not participate.

"Wow, you weren't kidding about the last-minute thing." Sonny stated, her eyebrows raised. The blonde just smiled.

I sooo feel like uploading the next Chapter. Just because 4 is my favorite fully edited chapter... But I won't because its also the longest. Hope you guys liked this Chapter. How cliche was it? How many people saw the text misfire coming, it was fairly obvious in my opinion but that may be because i wrote it... heehee. Lotsa fluff in the next Chapters, but watch out for Ch 8 (my favorite unfinished chapter!) It starts to get rough, and I don't mean little things like texts either ;)

Peace out suckas!
