Chad's POV

I decided that at the party tonight I'd ask Sonny to go for a walk with me and then I'd tell her how much I love her. Maybe I would get a kiss from her as an early birthday present. I could only hope.

The party started and the people started entering. Shanice introduced us to everyone at the party, mostly Brad's family but some of them were just friends of Brad and Shanice.

I enjoyed myself but I stayed away from the alcohol. I had Sonny there to make sure of that. She wouldn't even let me anywhere near the punch, wich was non-alcoholic.

Shanice kept looking at us, waiting for me to make my 'move'. I glared at her, I wanted to take it easy, I was afraid that if I would rush into it I might say something wrong.

Damn actually I could use a drink now. But no, I can't do that to Sonny. I'm trying to keep my promise to her.

" Chad?" I turned around to see Sonny standing there with that determined look on her face again, that's when I realised that I was standing by the table with the alcoholic drinks on it. I must've walked over here while I was thinking.

" Were you drinking?" she asked quitly.

" No Sonny, I was thinking can't you see that?" oh great, I had to be a jerk again.

"Oh" she turned to walk away.

" Wait Sonny!" I grabbed her wrist "would you like to go for a walk with me?"

"But Chad there's a party going on, we can't just leave."

" Please Sonny? Pretty please?" I practicly begged her. I tried to give her my puppy dog look.

She looked back to the party and faced me again. "Ok, but not too long."

I immediatly took her hand and headed for the door.

I decided to take a walk in the park down the street. It was a beautiful park. We went there this afternoon with Hayley and liam.

"It's beautiful here isn't it?" I asked her right away.

" No..." I looked at her strangely. She turned to me and said." I thought it was beautiful this afternoon, but in the moonlight it's magnificent." I smiled.

My smile got even wider as she grabbed my other hand too so we were face to face.

"Do you know why I brought you here?" I asked her.

"No" she said smiling.

" I wanted to tell you something but it's hard for me to say this because I've never been in this situation before." I paused, not for dramatic effect but because I was trying to find the right words to say this.

Suddenly Sonny cupped my face with her hands and said "Chad, I know how hard this is for you. And I hope you understand that this is hard for me too because I'm putting my heart on the line here." She looked me in the eye and I felt myself melting inside.

" Chad, I love you" she said firmly.

I was suprised, she took the first step that I didn't dare to take.

I looked at her, slipped my hands around her waist and pushed my lips against hers.

She started pulling me closer and kissing me back so passionate, I never expected that from good little Sonny.

When we finally broke the kiss off, both panting for oxygen. I rested my head against hers. "I love you too Sonny"

We both smiled.

I never knew that coming clean about my feelings could feel so good.

After another little make-out session we walked back to the party together hand-in-hand, looking into each others eyes.

I think this is the end, I hope you enjoyed the story. I'm going to write an epilogue about their detour over Paris ( the one chad was thinking about doing). My new story will be coming soon. Please review.
