DISCLAIMER: I don't own any part of Sonny With A Chance.

Previously:

"Chad," said Sonny and she brushed her thumb across my cheek. "Do you care? For me?"

My eyes flew open at her question.

CPOV

Shucks. She caught me. Help!

Chad stared right back at me. He quickly shifted us such that we were sitting side by side without touching. I missed the contact immediately.

Looking down, I see his hand beside mine. I wanted to grab it, but was hesitant. Why did he push me away? Was he trying to make it obvious that he did not feel anything for me? If he did not care for me, then why did he look after me just now? Ugh. If only Chad was easier to read.

I looked around. We were on the couch in the prop house. How did we even get here? I remember curling up on the cafeteria floor. There was only one explanation for how I had gotten here. Chad had carried me all the way. I shivered just thinking about how it could have felt to be in his arms. This is bad. Chad is turning me into a typical girl.

Turning my head slightly, I observed him from the corner of my eye. He was still staring at me, but with a regretful expression on his face. There was also another emotion which I couldn't identify. What was he regretting? Did he regret looking after me?

Sighing, I rested my head on my palms with my elbows on my thighs. Chad is complicated.

I kept staring at Sonny after I put her down. What was I thinking? This is Sonny. She deserves more respect. She is different from girls who I date for a few hours before dumping. They are nothing when compared to her. Sonny was special.

I missed the contact. Over the past few hours, I had gotten used to touching Sonny and holding her close. I looked down and saw her had right beside mine. My hand itched to reach out and grab hers, but I resisted. What if she did not want me to? If only she knew how I felt.

Sonny suddenly sighed, leaning down to cup her face. She looked disturbed. I wanted to erase the look from her face. After all, Sonny is always meant to be sunny.

"Sonny?"

She grunted in reply, causing me to laugh. "Hey, Sonny. Look at me."

Sonny continued looking down at the floor, refusing to turn her face towards me. I was starting to feel deprived. "Come on Sonshine," I said, hoping to gain a response from her by using her special nickname. "Are you mad at me?" I asked, hoping that it was not true. Was Sonny even capable of feeling anger?

"It is not your turn to ask a question," replied Sonny in a sad voice."You still haven't answered my question." She paused for a few seconds, lengthening the silence.

"Do you care for me?" she continued in the same quiet voice. Where was her perkiness? Did I do something wrong? Maybe I could make her ok by answering her question.

To tell the truth or not to tell the truth? I really wanted to tell her that I loved her. Yeah, my recent revelation was itching to be revealed. But there was always the chance that she would reject me. Man, that would hurt. Real bad. That sure was something that I was not looking forward to.

I looked over at Sonny again. There was something glistening on her face. Leaning closer towards her, i watched as a tear drop rolled down her cheek. Sonny was crying! Ok, that's it. I am answering her question whether or not I want to.

I reached over and lifted Sonny's face up with my finger on her chin. She really was crying. My heart broke at her expression. What would I not give to erase that look of disappointment on her face?

"Sonny," I said. "Of course I care for you." Her eyes flicked towards my face at those words. I continued with the hope that she would stop crying.

"You seem very strong most of the time, but I know that you need someone to support you at times. Sonny, I am willing to support you when you need it." Her tears stopped flowing. Encouraged, I opened my mouth to speak again.

"I care for you deeply Sonny. I'm sorry if this disgusts you or anything. You will always have a special place in my heart even if you don't want it." I stopped. Was it too much? I should probably stop before I say something she doesn't want to hear.

Sonny was silent. I wanted to know how she was taking it. I cautiously looked up, wary of her reaction.
