I watched Chase and Sonny walk down the hall. My eyes narrowed. What was he doing with her? My own cousin betrayed me. I knew I should have never told him my plan. I leaned against the wall and slid down to the floor. Right when I thought I was close to- It doesn't matter. I put my head in my hands. Come on Chad, pull yourself together. I heard footsteps coming up to me. Please let it be- I looked up. Oh great. Tawni stared down at me with a smile on her face. "I knew it was you," she said.

"Yeah, so?" I asked and put my head in my hands again. What else did I have to lose?

"Chad, she likes you too." I looked up. Tawni's eyes were softer.

"No, she doesn't. She likes Chase." I spat out his name like I had a bad taste in my mouth.

"She only likes Chase, because he 'sent' her the gifts." She put air quotes around sent.

"Ha, liked she would ever believe me if I told her it was me! Besides, he wasn't totally lying. He sent her the last set of flowers. I shouldn't have told him her favorite chocolate. I'm so stupid!"

"Well, I'm not denying that, but I've told her it was you like fifty times!" She thought for a moment. "You can prove that it's you though."

"How so?"

"Well-"

I was on cloud nine. I had a wonderful day yesterday with Chase. I sighed walking into the dressing room. Tawni looked more cheerful than usual. "Tawni, Isn't it just an amazing day," I said spinning around.

"Why, yes it is Sonny," Tawni said walking over with a rose.

"Who's that from?" She handed the rose to me.

"Your secret admirer." I smelled the rose and noticed a note. There is only one gift left to give, but I must give it to you in person. I will be the one with the silver mask. See you on the dance floor.

"Silver mask?"

"Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you. I spread the word around that it was like one of those parties's where everyone wears a mask."

"Oh, that's cool." Chase walked in the room.

"I loved the gift." I hugged him.

"You did? I mean, you did," he said. He looked over at Tawni. "Hey Tawni."

"Chase," she said glaring at him. What was that about?

"How did you know roses were my favorite?" I asked.

"I just know you so well." He looked at his watch. "Well, I got to run. See you tonight, my sonshine." I saw Tawni behind him mouthing "Blah, blah, blah, blah." I couldn't help but laugh.

"Let's go pick out an outfit for me," Tawni said and dragged me out of the room-again.
