Chapter 4: Last day!

Sonny lay sprawled across on her bed when she heard loud pounding on her hotel door. In response, all she could do was whimper. She did not want to go open the door, she did not even want somebody to be at the door, she wouldn't care if it was the president now.

More banging, "Oh please, Leave!" she whines into her pillow.

"Sonny!" more banging, "Open up!" says another voice.

"Hmph!" Sonny gets up, with great difficulty, and drags her feet to the door. As she opens it she faces the ridiculously energetic and happy faces of her cast mates and Chad. Ridiculous because, 1) it is around midnight and 2) they've spent the last 5 days (and nights) attending parties, promotional events, charities, site seeing and what not?

"What are you guys doing? It is so late..." she yawns looking around at the lot of them.

"Hey Sonny!" Grady jumps, voice very very perky, it makes Sonny flinch. "We're heading out to the hotel pool and then try to get into the park fountain..." he starts laughing as everyone starts talking at once.

Sonny flinches even more as she recognizes the onset of a head ache. "Shuuuussssshhhhh..." she pleads with them. They all stop and look at her eagerly. When she does nothing but sigh, Tawni starts. "Come on Sonny, get ready. It is going to be so much fun and adventurous!"

Sonny almost cries now, "No you guys, its late. And I am so tired. We've done all the adventures, our flight is at 7 in the morning for God's sake. Please, let us sleep this night off..." she whines.

"Oh who are you and where have you hidden our Sonny Munroe?" Nico asks in contempt as they all frown at her.

"Sonny, it is our last night here in Munich... Germany! Come on! What are you doing in your jammies? We need to be out, ending our trip here with a blast!" Tawni exclaims with her hands up in the air.

"Yeah! Come on Sonny!" Grady screams.

"Get your self ready and out in 5 Sonny!" Zora jumps in excitement.

"Come on Sonnaaii!" Chad sings.

"Hmph... all right..." Sonny gives in, shoulders slacking. "I'll be ready in a bit..." she turns and drags herself into the bathroom, not the slightest trace of excitement in her step. Her back turned, she does not notice the hi5's passing around between the gang.

... 4 hours later... At the airport...

"Sonny..." Tawni giggles, trying to shake Sonny up. "Get up, we're at the airport!"

Sonny shot awake, she had just fallen asleep. Just about 2 minutes back. She could swear that because up until then she was trying in vain to shut her ears to all the noise her friends were making in the car. They were going on and on and on... she couldn't believe it. Even after last night, not one of them was tired. They were all bubbling with energy and it was really starting to annoy Sonny. She tried really hard to ask them to keep it down but, apparently, she could not be heard!

"We're already here?" she mumbles. "Yes silly, we've been travelling for an hour and you've been sleeping the whole time!" Tawni giggles again, poking Sonny in her arm. It took all of Sonny not to growl back at her.

"I've been sleeping for 5 minutes, thank you very much!" Sonny says in contempt as they all drag their bags into the airport. The Mackenzie Falls cast already there.

"Someone's jumpy!" Nico says, laughing.

"Cut it out!" Sonny snaps back at him. They snigger and walk in front leaving Sonny to walk behind growling and mumbling to herself.

After the whole process of checking-in, customs, security and what not!, they all finally find themselves at their gate waiting for boarding time. Sonny finds herself a nice, large seat and snuggles into it to take her nap before boarding.

But, of course, that is not going to happen. Tawni, Nico, Grady, Zora and Chad- all take seats beside Sonny, watching her as though she is the next big thing! "Whaaaatttt...?" Sonny whines, "What do you want now?" she literally cries that out.

"Awww... Poor little Sonny!" Tawni squeaks and giggles again. "What is wrong? Are you unable to sleep?" Grady chimes in.

"Are we annoying you?" Zora continues, "If we're, please, say so!" And they all start laughing.

"YES!" Sonny almost screams, "Yes you are! Please, Please just let me sleep. I'm so tired..." she continues whining as the lot around her whistle, HI5, and 'whoop-whoop' around her.

"What? What are you guys doing?" she asks, tired and confused.

"Well Sonny," starts Tawni. "You see, we wanted to show you how it is to be us!"

"So, we all equipped ourselves with many many cans of red bulls and are being you..." continues Grady.

"And on the last night we were all as spent as we could be, we decided to show you our side of the story!" Nico goes on.

"So we did what we did last evening..." continues Chad.

"...last night and finally now!" finishes Zora.

Sonny looks around at the lot of them, unbelievable. "So..." she starts tentatively, "right now, you guys are like this because you're high on red bulls..."

"And candy!" Chad says triumphantly.

Sonny raises her brows high up and bites her lips in understanding, "Right... Okay... good job you guys... but what are you going to do when we get back?" she starts, looking around at the very energetic faces. "You guys, at this very moment, have been awake for..." she does a little calculation, "almost... 43 or 44 hours all together. That's missing a looooottttt of sleep... and if you notice, it seems kind of stupid to have lost so much sleep just to prove something to me..." she drags away, sniggering.

"Aha! That's were we prove to be even more awesome!" Nico laughs.

"Yeah... remember, we're getting 3 days off from the studio. So we plan on sleeping the whole 2 days of that!" Zora says, grinning wide.

"So basically, we just had the 2 most amazing days, we had a blast and we made you miserable, and no side effects!" Tawni finishes giggling uncontrollably as the others join in.

"Well..." Sonny says, staring at all of them offended, but too tired to do or say anything. "You guys won! Brilliant... now if you don't mind, I would like to get back to my sleep!" she finishes and covers her face so as to avoid any other conversation.

They all scoot away except for one Chad who takes a seat by her and sighs in relief. Sonny slowly takes a peak from below her hands and sighs too, but in frustration.

"What Chad? Do you have more gloating to do? Please, please can you save it for later?"

Chad chuckles and shuts his eyes as he eases into his chair, imitating Sonny's pose. "Ah Sonny... you should be grateful for me..." he drags away as Sonny sits up straight to face him, face full of indignation and confusion.

"And why is that Chad?" she snaps at him.

Chad, still eyes closed, says "Because, if not for me then they, I mean, we would have continued to torture you until we got back to the studio. I asked them to finish it off here itself..." he continues, but when Sonny says nothing, "You can say thank you!"

"Wait..." Sonny starts looking as though a light bulb just went on above her head. " You are not jumping up and down and even though you are sitting by me, you're not trying to annoy me! Your eyes are red and you really look annoyed right now..."

Sonny almost jumps in her seat now, "Oh my god! You're dead tired!" she literally screams poking Chad's chest.

Chad tentatively opens a single eye and looks at her. "Nice observation Munroe, now leave me alone. The only reason I am sitting by you this time is because I know you're too tired to bug me. So let us get back to sleep and prove me right shall we?" Chad shuts his eye and folds his hands over his chest.

"Ha!" Sonny says triumphantly as she gets back to her old pose in her seat. "So you're not high on candy and red bull..." More a statement than a question.

"No! It is called acting," he says it as though he is talking to a 8 year old, "I was pretending and they bought it. No surprise there!" he guffawed, still not moving from his comfortable pose.

"Hmm... so why all this then?" Sonny asks, imitating his pose, closed eye lids and hands folded against her chest.

"You mean, other than the obvious reason to annoy you..." Chad grins smugly.

Sonny turns her head and narrows her eyes at him, "I know that..." she says through her teeth. "Why are you not on candy and red bulls? It would have made your job easier..."

"Well... I am not planning on sleeping 2 days in after we get back. Unlike others, Chad Dylan Cooper is required in places and does not have the time to sleep in! So I just figured I would catch up on my sleep along with you!" his smug grin goes wider.

Sonny, not knowing what to say in return, huffs loudly, turns away from him and shuts her eyes again. "Don't disturb me, I really want to sleep!"

"Says the person asking the questions!" Chad chuckles.

"Whatever Chad!" Sonny snaps making Chad laugh out loud.

"Just go to sleep, will you!"
