SONNY POV

When Chad finally arrived at home, he still didn't believe I was there and although he talked to me, I still felt incredibly shunned as he didn't believe I was there. He was spilling secrets about himself to me that he wouldn't tell to the "real" me's face. Like his father sexually abusing him when he was a small child and I just wanted to cry but I had to be strong for his sake.

I woke up in the morning and decided to make Chad realise that I was actually home for good. I walked out of the door why he was sleeping holding a suitcase and coat and I reopened the door and slammed it shut and in no time at all I heard the scurrying of feet and suddenly a baseball bat was in full view.

'I HAVE A BAT!' I heard Chad call out and I walked towards it and placed a hand on it.

'Relax Chad, it's me.' I said and suddenly the bat fell to the floor and he stepped out and stared at me.

'You're really back? You're early!'

I looked at my feet and blushed. 'I missed you.'

'Well... I didn't miss you, in fact I'm wondering why you actually came back.' He snapped nastily and turned his back to me. I couldn't help but feel slightly hurt by that. I put down my empty suitcase and wrapped my arms around his torso from behind and he stiffened.

'I missed you Chad, I missed your kisses, your touch, your smell, everything about you.' I whispered in his ear and he stiffened but held his ground before whirling around on me.

'We're over remember, just get out of here! The restaurant shut down and I don't want you here anymore!' he yelled in my face and I felt tears leak out of my eyes.

'Oh, I guess if that's how you feel, I'll guess I'd best get the rest of my stuff, book another ticket and be on my way. If you don't mind, could you drop me off at the airport since last time you were crying for me not to go.'

'Sure, whatever just get your stuff and go.' He sneered and I bit my lip and ran upstairs with my suitcase and sobbed.

CHAD POV

As soon as she had gone, I slapped myself. What had I done! I still loved her, I had prayed every day for her to come back and now I've just gone and ruined it. I am so STUPID! I walked upstairs and listened at our bedroom door to her sobs as I heard her clear out the wardrobe.

'Sonny, could you come out please, I'm sorry, I didn't mean what I said.'

'Go away! You've hurt me enough Chad and frankly I've had enough.' She called and I quickly ran to the study and grabbed a song I had written and guitar and sat down before starting to play and sing.

'Eh eh eh eh eh eh
Ohhhhhh

I know they wanna come and separate us but they can't do us nothin
You're the one I want and Imma continue lovin
Cause your considered wifey and I'm considered husband
And Imma always be there for you
And either way you look at it I ain't goin nowhere from my muffin
Cause she gonna hold it down, can't nobody tell her nothin
You got the kind of love that always make up after fussin
And that's what gets me closer to you

And no one knows
Why I'm into you
Cause you'll never know what it's like to walk in our shoes
And no one knows, the things we've been through
Can never measure up to half of what I put you through
That's why we'll break through

And I don't care what they say
I'm gonna be with you
I'm gonna be with you
I wanna be with you
And I don't care what they do
I'm gonna be with you
I'm gonna be with you
I'm gonna be with you

Seems like every day that go by things are gettin harder
Want to be the one that give you the whole enchilada
Cause I know what my baby like,
I know you love that Prada Louis bag to match with the shoes
All about knowing you I'm into doing things to keep her longer
Stickin together forever, watch it grow stronger
That's the way it has to be, everything proper
Keepin it always true

And no one knows
What I'm into you
Cause you'll never know what its like to walk in our shoes
And no one know, the things we've been through
Can never measure up to half of what I put you through
That's why we'll break through

And I don't care what they say
I'm gonna be with you
I'm gonna be with you
I wanna be with you
And I don't care what they do
I'm gonna be with you
I'm gonna be with you
I'm gonna be with you

You are everything in my life see the joy you bring
And ain't no one I can compare you to
And I know that you will never walk away from me no matter what
And that's why I plan to do the same thing for you
And I want you to know

And I don't care what they say
I'm gonna be with you
I'm gonna be with you
I wanna be with you
And I don't care what they do
I'm gonna be with you
I'm gonna be with you
I'm gonna be with you

And I don't care what they say
I'm gonna be with you
I'm gonna be with you
I wanna be with you
And I don't care what they do
I'm gonna be with you
I'm gonna be with you
I'm gonna be with you'

I finished the song and although there was no sound coming from our room, I still waited. Nothing. I sighed and got up and just as I turned my back, I heard the door creak open but I ignored it, pretending that I hadn't heard it. When it squeaked I knew the door was fully open.

'Chad?' she called out softly and I turned around and took in her appearance. Her face was smudged with make up and her eyes were bloodshot.

'Sonny.' I whispered looking at her and suddenly we ran forward and embraced each other in a kiss. 'I lied, I missed you so much I was on the brink of killing myself. I missed you I love you and I was a jerk.'

SONNY POV

I smiled and kissed him softly again.

'I know, and I'm sorry for leaving you and lying to you earlier.'

'Wha-?''

'I know why your voice is weird and I know about the fire. I've ben back for a week and a half Chad and the only reason you don't think I'm a hallucination was because I pretended to come back.' I whispered against his lips and suddenly I felt him freeze.

'So now you know all of my secrets,' he said coldly and he wrenched himself away from me and turned his back around.

'Yes, and I'm sorry they happened to you.'

'I think you should go.'

'But... we're finally together again.'

Chad wheeled around and glared at me. 'You just ruined it Munroe, again. See you around.' He snapped and I felt angry at his reaction towards me.

'Yeah, fine, be that way. I guess your stupid little song doesn't really fit my profile after all, I mean I couldn't possibly be the joy of your life.' I blinked away tears of anger before marching back into the bedroom and continuing to pack, making sure the door was left open. Out of the corner of m eye, I saw that Chad had turned around and was gawking at me. I slammed the suitcase shut and zipped it up before walking over to the phone.

'Yes, I'd like to buy a one way ticket to LAX please and I would like a taxi to come and pick me up, my name is Sonny Munroe, yes thank you.' I said to the lady who booked my ticket before hanging up. I grabbed my bags and marched passed him.

'And where do you think you're going?'

'Away from you!' I yelled.

'You won't last an hour without me Munroe!'

'Is that a bet Chad because I bet you can't last thirty seconds after I close this door. I HATE you, I can't even begin to fathom what on earth made me decide to give you a chance. I guess it's probably because you were hit by your dad and guessing from your attitudes and behaviour towards people you deserve it!' I hissed, shocked at my own words.

'FINE!'

'FINE!'

'GOOD!'

'GOOD!'

'So are we good.'

'No Chad, we will never be good again.' I put my coat on and went to wait outside for my taxi, which would be arriving in an hour. I just couldn't stand to be in that house with Chad.

CHAD POV

When she said those horrible words to me I just had to put in our fine, fine, good, good argument but it didn't do any good. I peeked out of the curtain and watched Sonny sit out in the cold on her suitcase and a couple of tears slid down her cheeks and my heart broke. I had done it again – I had hurt her but then again she had hurt me as well. Lies shouldn't occur in relationships but I had lied to her about the past event of my life so I couldn't really talk. I sighed and looked at the clock. I had 55 minutes to set things right. I went to the kitchen and made two mugs of cocoa and put on a coat before walking into the freezing cold November weather.

'Um, I thought that you er might want a cup of cocoa.' I said nervously, placing it on the wall beside her but she ignored me and I sat down on the bench a few metres away and began to sip my own cocoa. Soon, she picked up the cocoa and drank it. 'Sonny? I'm really sorry for being an ass to you... again.'

'You were more than an ass Chad, what you did was cruel.'

'Cruel? What you said to me was...' I bit my tongue and took a deep breath to relax. I didn't want to start another huge row.

'I know and I want to know if you wanted to start over again.'

'Chad, I really can't live with someone as bipolar as you.' She said softly and I nodded and tried to get up. Once, twice, thrice but I was frozen to my seat. I began grunting in order to free myself and this caused Sonny to look my way curiously and when she saw what situation I was in, she burst out laughing. It wasn't the mocking sort, but more of the affectionate type. She got off her suitcase and grabbed my hands and tugged. After 5 or 6 hard tugs I was freed from the bench and I landed on top of her. I pondered on whether or not I should kiss her in the snow I mean it would be terribly romantic but then again, she didn't want to be with me anymore so I decided on the latter and got up quickly before helping her up.

'Sorry Sonny.' I murmured. 'Well, I'll see you around then.' I mumbled before shuffling inside. This was turning out to be a very crap day!
