All of you got the couple right.
It is, in fact, Ariana and Chaz.
Ariahaz? xD
I don't own SWAC.
Previously on Time Travel:
My eyes widened as I realized something. I ran over to Sonny's house as quickly as I could.
This is impossible. It has to be.
My older self was starting to take over!
Suddenly we heard the door open, and Zora came rushing in.
"We have a problem!" she yelled.
Sonny's POV
"Zora, what is it?" I asked.
"Get the others over here right now. Even Nico and Grady." she said.
"I'll call them." Ariana said, getting out her phone. I re-dialed Tawni.
"Tawni, get Skylar and get over here. It's an emergency." I said. Tawni agreed and hung up.
A while later, we were all here. Tawni, Skylar, Chastity, Grady, Nico, Portlyn, Chad, Zora, Ariana, and me.
"Okay, what's the emergency?" Tawni asked.
"You guys..." Zora said, everyone looked at her. "My older self is taking over."
They stared at her to continue. All of our eyes widened.
"Which means yours will too. Eventually, we'll be our future selves. Which means, Chad and Ariana will be in love. Nico and Grady won't want to build the time machine anymore.. It, it will...we have to hurry. You guys gotta build the machine faster before it's to late." Zora looked at Nico and Grady. They nodded.
"We've made a lot of progress so far. Chastity and Portlyn are helping us, too." Nico said.
"Good. Now, hurry." Zora said, motioning the four out the doors. Now only Tawni, Skylar, Chad, Ariana, and Zora were left..besides me.
That explains why I felt comfortable with Chaz the first time we came here.
"How'd you find this out?" Chad asked.
"I began to feel like I was in love with Jackson. I found that impossible, since I barely knew him, and i'm only twelve. And then I got it."
We nodded.
The next day, (after a call from her manager, and lots of whining and grumbling) Ariana went out on a date with Chad for publicity. Chaz was going to come over.
Now I actually had to spend time with him. I was kind of nervous, to tell you the truth. And I was still jealous of the whole Ariana and Chad thing.
But not as jealous as I was before.
I gasped.
I'm turning into my future self, too.
Not good.
I heard a knock on the door. It was, as I suspected, Chaz.
"Hey," he said, kissing me. I kissed him back, as if it was the most normal thing to do. I was shocked about this at first, but then I remembered.
Future self.
"Hey." I said back.
"Ariana not here again today?" he asked me.
"Yup. She's out with Chad."
"That's weird. It's not weird that they're out, because, you know, they're a couple, but... she's usually here a lot."
I shrugged. "So, what do you want to do?" I asked.
"We could go out too." he said, motioning to the door.
I smiled. "Sounds great."
Ariana's POV
Me and Chad sat at a table that was sitting outside of a cafe. It had an umbrella over it, shading us.
"So, future selves...wonder what's going to happen." Chad said.
I nodded. "Doesn't that mean that we'll," I fake gagged, "Start liking eachother?"
"I guess it does.." Chad said.
"So, you like Sonny, huh?" I smirked as I took a sip of my coffee.
"Um..kind of. Well, if you can keep a secret..." I nodded again. "I like her a lot. Well I did. When we were still in our time. I could almost say that I loved her. But now, the longer we stay in this future... my feelings for her...they seem to be just drifting away."
"Well, if you can keep a secret, Sonny likes you." he perked up at this. "But her feelings seem to be leaving, too."
"You rhymed."
"Huh, I guess I did."
Chad chuckled.
"It's weird. We haven't mocked eachother in over 10 minutes." he said.
"It's part of the future situation." I pointed out. "We're turning into our future selves right now, remember?"
"Sadly."
"No kidding."
"Doesn't that mean we're gonna start liking eachother?" he asked.
I shrugged. "I guess so. Once again, sadly."
"Hey, Chad, Ariana, over here!" a woman and a man came over to us. The man was holding a camera.
"Can I help you?" Chad asked.
"We're from Tween Weekly. We were wondering if we could get a photo?" the woman asked.
"Um, sure." I answered. Me and Chad smiled and they took a picture.
"How about a kiss now?"
Me and Chad looked at eachother, eyes widening. "Um, no no." I answered, smiling nervously.
"Oh, come on!"
"No..we'd um rather not." Chad said.
The woman scoffed and the two walked away.
"Ugh, stupid paparazzi." Chad groaned.
"No kidding."
Sonny's POV
Me and Chaz walked down the sidewalk, laughing and smiling.
And it seemed like the most normal thing.
I turned my head and saw, across the street, Ariana and Chad.
They were smiling for two people, presumably paparazzi.
I didn't feel as jealous as I had before.
Oh no, Nico, Grady, fix that time machine fast!
I walked with Chaz over to Chad and Ariana.
"Hey guys." I said smiling. Ariana's eyes glanced down, and I realized me and Chaz were holding hands.
"Hey." Chad said awkwardly. "Sonny, can I talk to you over there?" he asked, pointing a few feet away.
"Sure." I said, letting go of Chaz's hand. Me and Chad walked over, far enough so Ariana and Chaz couldn't hear us. I noticed Chaz sit down next to Ariana. They began talking and laughing. I felt the tiniest twinge of jealousy.
Ugh, dang it.
"Um, so, Ariana kind of told me that you like me..." Chad said.
My eyes widened. "She what?"
"And I kind of told her that I like you."
I blushed and looked down.
"You know, my feelings for you started to wear off because of, you know, this. But...they feel like their coming back." Chad said.
"I know. This doesn't make any sense. We like eachother, then don't like eachother, we share a moment, and now we like eachother again."
I thought for a moment.
"Wait. That's it!" I exclaimed.
"What? What's it?" Chad asked.
"This time travelling stuff makes less and less sense every minute. It seems that if we like...um, I don't know how to explain it. I guess, in your words, 'share a moment', we begin liking eachother again. It's something we would of done in that past, so..um..." I explained.
Chad blinked. "How does that make any sense at all?"
"I don't know," I laughed, "But it's true. So maybe, that means, if Nico and Grady keep working on the time machine, they'll still want to. You know, they're doing something weird, so they'll stay their weird selves. Um..yeah, I guess."
"Okay..." Chad said. "Like reversing the switch to our future-selves by doing things we would do in the past?"
"Exactly!" I exclaimed.
"So that means, my feelings will stay for you if I do this.."
"Do wh-"
I didn't have time to answer before Chad's lips were on mine.
And then I heard a click and a laugh. We pulled away quickly and turned our heads to the side.
"Chad Dylan Cooper cheats on Ariana Munroe with her sister! Oh, this is getting me this month's rent!" the man I saw before taking Ariana and Chad's photograph exclaimed.
Me and Chad looked at eachother.
"Oh no.." we whispered.
Hah, they did the exact opposite of what they were supposed to do.
They got attention drawn to themselves.
How will it play out?
You'll find out next chapter~~
Oh, and about the whole "If you do something that you would normally back in normal time, you'll stay yourself and not switch into your future self." thingy, don't judge my knowledge on the future.
No one has ever made a (successful) time machine, so how do we know how it would work?
I don't think that would happen if we did ever make a time machine (which seems darn near impossible), but hey,
IT'S CALLED FICTION FOR A REASON, BUDDY.
Okay, enough ranting. :)
