I finally got the time to right chapter two and I'm taking it! I'm going to try to make it slightly funnier but not too funny because then it just gets retarded like one of my chapters from The Only Thing. Oh! Go on a new page for your internet and type in Google four times in a row, no spaces. You should get four search engines! Don't own anything but the twins and the plot!
IMPORTANT! During Chad's call, he has the normal print and Tawni has the italics.

For All You Know
~:*Chapter two*:~
I stared at the cow covered phone as I sat at a stop light. Should I answer or just continue life without interference.
You love him, answer the phone pinhead!
I took a deep breath and did the dumbest thing ever. I answered.
"Hey! It's Allison, and I'd love to hear what you have to say. You know the drill, so beep!" I paused after my 'recording', drove off, and waited for Chad to leave his 'message'.
"Hey Sonny, you know what? Just call me back; I really need to talk to you- Tawni, go away! I wanna talk to her! No! My phone! Chad, give. Me. The. Phone." I heard some movement on the other end then a thud came from the other side. "Tawni, give me back my phone! No. It's mine now. Hey Sonny, did you tell him ye- Chad stop squirming! Get off me! No!" I heard another thud and the line went dead.
I giggled to myself trying to picture what was going on at the studio. I jumped a little and looked at my now sleeping kids as my phone started ringing.
I checked the caller id and saw Marshal's name flash on the screen. I slid my thumb across the bottom and answered my iphone.
"Hello?" I whispered and stopped at another stop light.
"Sonny? Why are you whispering?" I heard Nico whisper back.
"Well… did Tawn tell you?" I watched the light turn to green and sped off to the bakery, which was my second job.
"Um, depends." Nico went back to his normal level and I could almost hear him smile. "Was it about you keeping her lipstick or the twins?"
I sighed, "I didn't take her lipstick so what do you think?" I smirked and stopped in front of the bright colored shop.
"Twins. Are they with you right now?"
"I'm about to wake them up now." I said shaking Alex lightly. "Alex, come on sweetie." I heard Nico 'aw' me.
He stirred but shut his eyes tighter so I used his middle name, "Dylan, get up." he shot up.
"What?" I pointed at Alli and told him to wake her up.
He scratched his head and yawned, and then he pushed her head.
"Get up." he shut his eyes and started to drift off again.
Allison sat up and watched his eyes close. She smirked, looking exactly like her father, and then she pushed him down with her pointer finger. Alex hit his head on the seat and sat back up rubbing his head.
"Ow."
"Come on." I grabbed my purse and car keys and shoved the car door open. As I walked to the bakery doors I pulled out the shop key.
As I stuck it in the keyhole the door swung open. There stood Mrs. Mayfield and she smiled brightly.
"Hey sweetheart." She moved aside so that I could get to work. I said my boss was slightly an airhead but she's nice and knows how to make a mean cake.
The blonde, aging lady walked behind the counter and pulled on her own apron. I flipped the closed sign to the open side.
I placed the twins in a small play pen behind the counter so that I could focus on work and the news playing on the TV.
"We would like to welcome the family expert, James Mandel!" an aging woman with thin, red hair applauded a man in a suit.
"Thank you so much, it's great to be here." The man's thick voice came through the television set. "First, I'd like to start with the children and new mothers. A toddlers mind is magnificent. The cogs just keep turning, they never stop to think of consequences, and they always want to know why." He had deep adoration in his voice.
I was so absorbed in him that I didn't notice the customer in front of me. "They always ask the question that people want to avoid, and to all the mothers out there, think about what's best for them. Sometimes, that just happens to be what's best for you. Now, we all know what a mothers favorite part is, well it's my mother's favorite part."
"What would that be?" the woman smiled.
"The fathers. Every mother loves to watch new fathers mess up, they might hold the baby upside down, too loose, too tight, or just 'freak out' at a dirty diaper." The man laughed and showed his many wrinkles and laugh lines.
I felt something break inside; this was something that I would never get to experience because of my own stupidity and selfishness.
I flipped the channel and Chad's face was on the screen, of course.
"Mr. Cooper! Mr. Cooper! Over here!" paparazzi where all over him trying to get his attention. "What's your next role?!"
"Do you plan on taking a break from the spotlight like the rumors say?" Chad smiled the whole way until one question popped up.
"What happened to Ms. Monroe?"
The TV shut off and I looked at Ms. Mayfield. She frowned.
"You've got a customer dear." I looked at a couple here for a wedding cake.
"Oh right, I'm so sorry." I took out some sample cakes for them to try. The woman took a plastic fork and tasted the triple-chocolate fudge cake.
"Oh, this is good." she pointed with her utensil and smiled. I smiled as I watched the couple sharing a cake.
"So, I guess you'll have the triple?" I smiled.
The woman looked at her fiancé in thought. "What if we got this with butterscotch icing?"
"I don't know, Uncle Ernie's allergic to butterscotch." The man scratched the back of his neck.
The woman nodded, "Oh, yes, I forgot. Okay, how 'bout lemon?" the man scrunched his nose in disgust.
"Um," I interrupted, "how about a three layer cake with a layer of butterscotch, a layer of lemon, and a layer of vanilla?" I raised my eyebrows in hope.
"Oh, that sounds amazing. Thank you!" the woman clapped her hands together and inspected her partner. "Well, what do you think?"
"I think that's great, thanks Sonny." He smiled and nodded to me.
"Do- do I know you?" I squinted thinking that I needed glasses.
"Oh no," he laughed, "My little, little sister used to watch So Random! That's the show you were on, right?" he pointed to me and I smiled.
"Of course." I shook my head.
"Hm, I would have thought he read your name tag, but that's just me." Ms. Mayfield chimed in.
I smiled and looked behind me at my twins. Alex was lying on his back and throwing a ball into the air repeatedly. Allison, on the other hand, was trying to pick the lock to the play pen.
"Young lady, what do you think you're doing?" I turned to her and put my hands on my hips.
"Nothing." She sat down instantly and smiled hugely. I smirked and turned back to my customers.
(CPOV)
This nutcase, Tawni, sat on me and she wouldn't get up.
Then the paparazzi were following me around talking about breaks and… her.
Oh well, can't mope.
I returned back to my car and slipped out of the parking lot and headed straight for the studio. I drove in silence until I got bored. With the click of a button, the roof slipped down and music started blaring.
I peered around at my surroundings through the black shades on my face. Trees, fans, paparazzi, business men, offices, shops, night clubs. This was the Hollywood life, my life.
The life without Sonny Monroe.
She broke her promise, because she said she would be back soon but she never came. She didn't even call, so I'll keep a smirk on my face and my shades over my eyes because who knows when a tear could slip.
I pulled into my usual spot and slammed the door shut. The click went off after I clicked the small key chain and I pushed through the doors to the studio.
"Hey, Chad!" I walked past Skyler and went to set two. "Hey man, wait up." I stopped so that I wouldn't seem like a jerk to my 'friend'.
"Hey Skyler." I sighed and pulled out my phone.
"Well, Blondie got a call from you-know-who and apparently she'll be back soon." Skyler wiggled his eyebrows and I shrugged.
I no longer listened to what Sonny said, because what's said and what's meant are two very different things.
"Yeah I know, I was there." I walked off to the set texting Portlyn.
"That's it? No big 'OMG, Sonny's back!' or a 'Can't wait to see her.'?" Skyler threw his arms down in frustration as I shook my head.
"Look," I turned on him and stopped him by pushing him back slightly, "the past is the past and Sonny and I are definitely where it belongs. Just don't bring it up."
I turned back to the set of a balcony and shrubs. Stupid set.
Portlyn stood there responding to my text. When I received it, I pulled out my phone and answered as I stood next to her.
"Really? You two are right next to each other." He watched us text for a little bit longer and then snatched our phones.
I looked up at him mad and then Portlyn noticed me, "Oh hey, I was just texting you." She smiled.
"When did you get here?" I pointed at her and smirked.
"Really guys, really?" Skyler gave Port her phone and shoved mine into my chest.
"Uh, ow." I shook my head with sarcasm.
I was about to approach my director about filming today instead of waiting for tomorrow, but the blonde one came rushing in.
"Chad! Chad! Chad!" she grabbed my shoulders and tried to catch her breath.
"What? What? What?" I said out of boredom.
"Guess! Guess! Guess!" she smiled and steady herself.
"Um, no." I walked over to the snack table and grabbed a chocolate walnut cluster.
"Fine, Mr. Snippy pants." She walked towards me. "Don't even think about me telling you." She leaned against the table and folded her arms. She looked anxious to tell me so I just acted like I didn't care.
"Okay." I shrugged and popped a cluster in my mouth.
She bit her lower lip and stared at me, "Okay! Fine! You win, I'll tell! So, you know that So Random!'s ratings aren't as high since… she… left?"
I nodded, "Why do I care and how does it affect me?" I held up two fingers.
"Okay, well, we might be getting a new cast member, so Sonny might not be able to join back up." Tawni frowned.
"Okay, still don't see how this affects me." I walked back onto set and felt like screaming.
"What?! How do you not care, you stupid, ill-prepared, jerk!" I turned to her in shock.
"It was four years ago, get over it!" I threw my last cluster at her and hit her in the forehead.
"Very mature."
"It's not that I don't care, it's just that that's the past and I'm over it." I forced a triumphant smile and walked to my dressing room.
"Chad Dylan Cooper! Get back here right now!" she chased after me in her three inch heels.
I stuck my fingers in my ears and stood in the doorway, "La la la, I can't hear you!" I shut the door.
"Chad, this is serious!" she whined while I sat on my couch in shock.
Sonny Monroe can't come back.
That's what it's like to know that you can't win, you can't smile, and you definitely cannot ever love again.
I slapped a hand over my eyes and leaned back into the couch as it truly sunk in.
I've lost her and she's never coming back.
So, what do you guys think?! Okay, I'm oober tired right now so writing this was hard work. I just saw New Moon and I've never read the Twilight series or seen the first movie. I love Jacob! Anyway, R&R!
