This chapter is mostly Chad and Lucy's first fake date. I'm excited about this one!
Enjoy!
Sonny's POV
Why am I so sad about this? I should be happy for Lucy! She gets to date Chad Dylan Cooper! I shouldn't act all moody and depressed. I better go up to Lucy and apologize.
I went to my dressing room to see Tawni dressing up Lucy.
"Hi Tawni! Hi Lucy!" I said trying to be as cheery as possible.
"Hi Sonny!" They both said at the same time.
"What are you doing?" I asked.
"Nothing really. I'm just getting ready for my first date with Chad Dylan Cooper!" Lucy said.
"That's great. Lucy I wanted to say sorry for earlier. I should have been more happy for you."
"That's okay! You didn't do anything! There's nothing to be sorry for!" Lucy said.
"So where are you and Chad going for your first date?"
"Lookout Mountain." She said dreamily.
"Oh, that's nice." I said trying to sound happy.
"Well I better get going. Chad was going to take me there after rehearsal. Bye Sonny!"
"Bye Lucy!" I said.
**Later on that Evening**
"Mom! Can you drive me to Lookout Mountain?"
"No! I have to go to a party tonight!"
"Please!"
"No!"
"Fine." I couldn't wait to get my own car.
I only want to go to Lookout Mountain to look after Lucy and make sure Chad doesn't do anything stupid. It's not like I'm being a stalker. I just wanted to look after my best friend. I mean, she is going on a date with Chad Dylan Cooper! Who knows what could happen?
**Fifteen Minutes Later**
I eventually called up Grady and convinced him to take me. And sure enough, when I got there, Lucy and Chad were already there. I hid near their car to hear what they were talking about. It's weird, because now I feel like a stalker.
Chad's POV
"Lucy! Why would you tell Sonny?" I asked.
"Because she's my best friend! I wouldn't want to hurt her! And I don't think that you want to hurt her either!"
"We're not hurting her! It's all part of the plan!"
"Who cares about the plan? It's a stupid plan! Sonny's not like anyone else! She's not like you! She doesn't get jealous!"
"What are you talking about? Everyone gets jealous! It's a part of life. Don't say that she has never gotten jealous before!"
"Of course she has! But she's a people pleaser! If someone wants something, but she wants it too, she'll let the other person have it! So this plan isn't going to work!"
"Of course it'll work!"
"Why?"
"Because I came up with it!" It's true. Any plan I come up with has to work.
"Fine. But if it doesn't take affect in five days, you know I'm going to tell her!"
"That's not fair! Plans take time!"
"Sorry. I already made a deal with Tawni."
"Dang it Tawni! Well it doesn't matter anyway, because I know for a fact that it's going to work!"
"Oh really?"
"Yes!"
"Want to bet on it?"
"Sure."
"Okay. I bet $300.00 that's it's not going to work."
"How about $400.00 that it will work?"
"$500.00"
"$600.00"
"$700.00"
"Okay! That's enough!" I said. I may look rich, but I don't have a money tree growing in the backyard.
"Fine. And as an addition, if you lose, you have to wear a chicken suit to Condor Studios for a week."
"Fine. But if I win, you also have to let me cut your hair."
"Deal."
"Deal."
Sonny's POV
What are they talking about?
All I heard was something about jealousy, a plan, and a chicken suit.
Oh no! Do they think I'm jealous and they have a plan to dress me up in a chicken suit?
I feel so guilty now! I'm not trying to act jealous! I'm not jealous at all! I couldn't be happier for Lucy!
I popped up and showed myself to Lucy and Chad.
"AHH!!!" they both screamed.
"I'm sorry to both of you! I'm not jealous! And I would understand if you wanted to dress me up in a chicken suit!"
"What are you talking about? And more importantly, why are you here?" Chad asked.
"Oh, I was just…" I said. I didn't make up an explanation. So I didn't know what to say.
"Whatever. But why did you think we would dress you up in a chicken suit?" Chad asked.
"Because, you guys think I'm jealous! But I'm not! I'm happy for you Lucy! I would never be jealous!"
"Sonny! We're not mad at you!" Lucy said.
"Then why were you talking about a plan, jealousy, and a chicken suit?" I asked.
No one answered.
"You know what, it doesn't matter. It's none of my business. Sorry for eavesdropping! Continue on your date." I said.
I walked away feeling a bit depressed and defeated. And there was only one thing on my mind: Why were they talking about a chicken suit?
Like it? Hate it? Love it? Loathe it? Let me know!
