Chapter 4
Another day began as I wake up to the sound of my alarm. I immediately smile, since I am a definite morning person. I grab my iPod from my bedside table and run down into the kitchen, still in that perky mood. I reach the kitchen and find my dock on the table as I had left it the night before. I slip the MP3 in and press shuffle, recognizing the song playing at once for the reason of it being a personal favorite.
Mayday Parade blasts, making me grin larger as I got my breakfast. A simple bowl of cereal and a kiwi is the cliché breakfast for me nowadays. I finish the bowl of Cheerios and quickly cut the kiwi, realizing I don't have too much time this morning. I eat the kiwi rather fast and change quickly as well. With Get Up playing in the background, I slip into a checkered skirt, navy blue top, and leggings, equipped with a belt and favorite heart necklace. I grab my keys and my iPod, putting the ear buds in, continuing to blast my music loud.
I hop into my car, turning the key in the ignition and drive to the studio, only multiple blocks away. I get to the studio, luckily sparing a few minutes of time before rehearsal. I stumble into my dressing room, still not quite awake. With an ear bud still in, I see Tawni and flash a smile. She smiled back to my liking. It had been about two weeks since I came to So Random.
"Hey, when's rehearsal?" I ask her, hoping the schedule isn't changed. She walks into the room, sitting down before her mirror, fixing her blonde locks.
"In a few hours, Marshall has a meeting or something. He told me to tell everybody," she informs me in a bored tone. I roll my eyes, placing my purse down on the couch.
"Well, that's weird. I didn't get a call from you." She laughs, turning to face me.
"I didn't call you, Sonny. Nico, Grady, and Zora don't even know yet," she tells me, grabbing some lipstick and applying it quickly. I give her a quick glare she sees in her mirror and start heading out of the room.
"I'm going to tell them," I let her know. With her not looking away from her reflection, she replies.
"Aw, you're no fun." I shake my head and shut the door behind me. I have a faint idea about where each of them is. I find Nico and Grady immediately in the cafeteria, getting pickles or something strange, as they seemed to do a lot. I walk over to them, only to say a simple sentence.
"Rehearsal's at twelve because Marshall is busy." With those words, I walk away with only a " Thanks, Sonny" as a reply, barely looking at me. I don't mind much for the reason that I still needed to find Zora and with that challenge, it took my mind off the boys of my cast.
Now I remember Zora being in a vent at one point, but I look in the casual places first. I check the studios of other shows (except Mackenzie Falls because they have a Do Not Admit wall and Zora is on it), and then I start to walk down the halls, hoping to run into her there, when I happen to run into someone else.
"Random," Chad calls with a disapproving look. I keep a optimistic smile on, hoping the conversation will be short.
"Chad." Then I think to ask him. "Have you seen Zora by any chance?" I ask him with much hope.
"Yeah, by my studio. She was trying to pull a prank on us, but she made it too obvious," he speaks with more ego than pride. I roll my eyes and add a sarcastic comment.
"Congrats." But I remember he did actually help, so reluctantly I add, "But thanks for the help." He began to walk away, but hearing my thank you, he turns to face me.
"No problem," he says softly, as if surprised at my kind attitude. His eyes peer down for a moment, then back to my eyes. His expression changing like he was pondering something. Like he was placing the now matching puzzle pieces together.
"Nice necklace," he utters even quieter, turning away and walking quickly. I look down to the chain around my neck, seeing the tiny silver heart had slipped over my shirt. As the 'A' shines in the sunlight, leaking through from an open window, I sigh. Of all things to mention, I think to myself with a dismal expression.
"Oh, hey Sonny," comes a voice from down the hall. I look up to see Zora just walking past.
"Where were you, Zora?" I ask, trying to get my mind off Chad's comment. Still repeating, even if they have the same first name, it doesn't mean anything. Or in other words, don't get your hopes up. Zora smiles evilly, as I place the heart beneath my shirt.
"Just pranked Chad, when's rehearsal?" she asks. I smirk, knowing Chad could never escape a Zora prank.
"It's at twelve. Marshall has a meeting," I inform her with a smile.
"He trusted Tawni with telling us again?" she asks. I nod with a small chuckle. Both of us knew trusting Tawni with telling us something important wasn't the smartest thing to do.
"Kay, thank Sonny. Later," she says, disappearing behind a corner, leaving me to my thoughts. I begin to walk back to the Prop House, thinking. With my fingers tracing the 'A' on the metallic heart, I sigh, reaching the Prop House. By means of no one in the popular hangout, I plop down onto the couch, feeling tired. Yawning, I wonder. Why would my necklace even catch his attention?
