Welcome to Chapter 7! I would like to thank the following people for reviewing chapter 6: Channyallthewaybaby, MirandaKP, SterlingKnightlover96, MoonLightShadowBeams, and xxcymphoniquemillerxx. It means a lot to me that you take time to write reviews for my story. Thank you to all the people who added my story to their alert list and favorite list. Thanks to everyone who added me to their favorite author list. I would like to ask for more reviews. Basically, I have a bet with my friend and I kind of told her I would be able to get TEN reviews for this chapter. Spread the word and PLEASE review.

Sonny and I stepped out at the same time. I waved at her and she waved at me. Tawni also waved, smiling.

"Where is she going?" Tawni asked through her clenched teeth.

"I invited her" I said to her. From the corner of my eye I saw Sonny head toward my car.

"What? Did you ask your friends?" she asked before I scoffed.

"You told me to invite friends, she is a friend and I am not asking permission for something I want to do. Plus, I don't think they'll mind." I said walking away from her and toward my car. I greeted Sonny with a hug. I still had my waffle in my hand. I ripped off a piece and handed it to Sonny.

"You want?" I asked. She smiled and said thank you.

"It's really good" she said finishing it.

"Glad you like it, I made it myself." I said and she shook her head.

"You know what is better than your amazing waffle? This car!" she said looking at my 16th birthday present: A black convertible with black leather seats. Tawni got one also but in silver. I like the black more than the silver, it's more stylish. Tawni liked it too but her car already had her name embroidered on the head rest.

"Nice right?" I said. She just nodded.

"Mine is better!" Tawni yelled. I turned to Sonny and mouthed "NO". Sonny laughed as I unlocked my car and got in. I am driving and Tawni is next to me.

"Do you have a car, Sonny?" Tawni asked, smirking. She knew the answer.

"No, I don't" Sonny said. Her voice told me that it doesn't bother her and it wasn't a big deal. Our school is not really walking distance.

"Sonny, I'll pick you up tomorrow morning for school; we can ride together." I announce and Tawni glares at me.

"Thank you Chad."

"We are NOT car pooling" Tawni said sternly. Like I cared, I get up early anyway to meet my friends.

"Perfect, that's better for me" I said. I looked in my rearview mirror and saw Sonny holding in a laugh. When we arrived at the mall parking lot, I quickly found a spot. We got out and headed to the mob of girls and boys waiting for us. Tawni invited the girls and I provided the guys. Everyone said their hellos. Sonny stood at the curb. I noticed everyone eyeing her. I walked over to her and put an arm around her shoulders.

"Chad, your girlfriend is HOT." Nico said, looking at her. I immediately got nervous. Sonny blushed.

"Oh, Sonny is not my girlfriend, she's my…" I started to say but Nico cut me off.

"Perfect" he said raising his eyebrows and winks. I started to panic.

"Uh, let's go inside" I said trying to change the subject. So this is how it works, we go to all of the unisex stores and spend half an hour in each. We don't split up. We walked into the first store and everyone went to their desired section. I noticed that Sonny was lingering behind.

"Come on Sonny, try some stuff on" I pushed.

"Fine." I walked through the aisles with her and saw her eyeing a particular dress. She picked out her size, looked at it, sighed and put it back. I knew she liked it. She has good taste. It was a black dress that goes right under the knee. It was an empire waste with a floral lace. Yea that is very visual; that is what I get for having a twin sister. (A/N: Picture is on my Profile)Sonny kept walking; I picked up the dress and caught up to her.

"Hey Sonny, it's my size, what do you think?" I joked. She laughed and went along with it.

"Oh yea, black heel and dangling earrings, perfect" I chuckled and stretched by hand out to her.

"Try it on" I said. She rolled her eyes and agreed. I walked her to the dressing room and she went in. As soon as she walked in, Nico and Grady walked up to me. "Hey, what are you doing standing in front of the Women's dressing room?" Grady asked, holding a pair of sneakers.

"Sonny is going to come out soon." I explain. After I answered their question, they didn't leave. Instead, Sonny came out with the dress on. My eyes widened. I was thinking of what to say. Apparently, Nico and Grady didn't even need a second to process the sight in front of them.

"HOT" they said at the same time. I glared at them but they didn't understand. Nico slid to her side. "Sonny, do you want to go out sometime?" Nico asked her. I cannot believe it. I don't want to sound jealous but Sonny just got to the neighborhood and he is already hitting on her. Sonny looked toward me; she looked worried and unsure.

"Um, I'm not interested, sorry, plus, I just met you." She explained. Nico didn't seem to mind. I felt relief. She turned him down and that means I still have a chance.

"Sonny, you look great," I said when Nico and Grady left; "You should get it." She smiled.

"I will thanks." She went back into the dressing room and changed. I waited a few minutes until Sonny came out. "Now, it is your turn." Sonny said as she came out of the dressing room. I looked at her confused. "Yea, you helped me find something, now I'll help you." She stated plainly. I shrugged and we walked to the men's section of the store. Some of my friends were roaming through the aisles. We found a red and white fleece hoodie that we really liked. (A/N: Pic on my profile.)We sawa pair of brown shorts we also grabbed off the rack. (A/N: Pic on my profile)We also grabbed some Nike basketball shorts.

"Hey CHAD" Sonny sang. I looked over to where she was. She was holding a pair of blue swim trucks. It looked okay but it has flowers on it.

"I don't think so," I said with a little laugh.

"Oh Come on Chad, it is a Speedo Men's Hana Floral swim trunks in New Navy." She said, reading the tag. (Pic on my Profile) "Do you have new trunks?" she asked. Come to think of it, I don't.

"Fine, but I get to pick out your new bathing suit." I said. Her I widened but she agreed. I took the trunks from her hands and fast walked to the girl's bathing suit section. I saw a navy ABS by Allen Schwartz "Portofino" Paisley Bikini. (A/N: Pic on my profile.) I picked that one because the color was the same one she picked for me. Also because I like the design.

"Chad, it is beautiful but I can't afford it, I am okay with the one I have" she explained.

"Sonny, I got it covered. My dad is friends with the owner. He can give you a discount: I BIG discount" I tell her. She smiles and picks up her size. At the end of the day, Tawni's friends had at least 5 bags of clothes and my friends had loads of clothes. After lunch with the buds, Tawni, Sonny and I drove home.
