SONNY POV
I slid down on my boyfriends pull out couch bed, fully dressed for school. He stirred; his hair a mess and the sheets only covering his lower half. I saw him smirk and place a hand behind his head. Chad's not the only guy that has abs. I mean, Michael is only eighteen so he's defined but not... as defined as Chad is. Michael's still attractive though. Especially with his tattoo of the word 'AMBITION' on his left chest.
"What?" He mumbled and found my arm.
"You came at the worst time ever. There's two days to the weekend and I have school so you'll be with my brothers"
"I'll survive"
"Unless you want to... drive me to school"
"That's so much work" He groaned "That requires me to get up, get a shirt and some sneakers and get in the car"
"Please..."
"What time do you have to be there?" I turned my head at the clock on the wall and sighed.
"Fifteen minutes" He hummed lightly and covered his mouth when he yawned.
"Alright fine" He pulled me on top of him and kept his eyes closed. "You know, I wake up every morning with a guy in a bed across from mine? I'm enjoying this" I scrunched my nose up and giggled when he placed his hands on my waist.
"You have morning breath"
"Oh please, I kissed you when you had morning breath"
"When?"
"I picked you up from Chloe's house even though you forgot your toothbrush"
"Oh yeah" I pecked his lips shortly and smirked "Happy?"
"Not yet" He mumbled. I furrowed my brows a little but shrugged it off.
"Get off" I heard my father's stern voice. I swiftly got off of him and walked past my father with a bright red face. "You know better" I heard my father say.
"Sorry, sir" Michael responded. I bit into an apple from the fruit jar in the kitchen and sighed. My father walked in with his gun holster in his hand and his gun in the other.
"Jesus, dad... did you really have to flash your gun?"
"Yes" It's better than the time he actually cocked it when he caught Michael and I making out- his shirt off and mine halfway up- when I lived in Wisconsin.
"I don't know why you think its okay to do that"
"I was fully clothed"
"I don't care" He shrugged "My house, my daughter, and my rules"
"Yeah, yeah" I muttered. I looked out the kitchen window at Mikey's black Escalade. My stomach dropped dramatically and I stopped breathing.
"Are you ready?" Michael asked.
"No..." I breathed out, still staring at the truck.
"No, babe? You have to go to school"
"Oh... yeah" I turned around and nodded. I thought he meant... damn, I'm paranoid "Yeah" I walked around Michael and grabbed my new messenger bag I bought yesterday. As I walked outside, I looked to my right and saw Bryce. He waved and Mikey and I waved back. Chad was sitting in his car with one hand on the wheel and his other resting out the window with a cigarette between his fingers. I'm having an effect on him because he tossed out the barely smoked Newport and sighed. I gave a small smile and turned my attention to the door Mikey opened for me. While he walked around the backside of the car I looked at the seats behind me. I know they lower down. Shit, that's a lot of space. He started the truck and pulled away from the curb.
"So... what time do you get out of school?"
"Today? One fifteen"
"I'll be out in front and then we can go get something to eat" Chad stood me up when he texted me something similar to that.
"Are you actually gonna be in front?"
"Yeah, why wouldn't I be?" He chuckled
"Mikey, why'd you rent a truck?"
"Um... what?"
"You rented an Escalade when a Honda or Toyota would've been fine"
"We talked about this over the phone, Sonny"
"I think we need to talk about it some more" I told him softly. The most powerful word I can say to a guy is no. Out of the corner of my eye, I can see his jaw clench and his hand tighten around the wheel. The rest of the ride was silent. When we pulled up in front of my school he exhaled and nodded.
"One fifteen, I'll be out front"
"Okay..." I kissed his cheek and grabbed my bag as I got out the car. Penelope was standing where she usually is with two of her frappuccino's that she loves so much. She handed one to me when I got to her and smirked
"Your boyfriend is hot"
"So I've been told"
"And tall"
"That too" We started up the schools steps, receiving glares from everyone. I furrowed my brows and watched Daniel drape his arm around Tawni with a blank stare at me. "You notice that..."
"They're all staring" She finished.
"Is it because of what happened yesterday?" A full bottle of Pepsi came flying towards us. We both ducked and looked in the direction it came from. I pursed my lips while she chuckled "Yeah..."
"You know, Nico is not..."
"I know" She sighed
CHAD POV
"The date sucked ass, Chad" Portlyn found me when my accounting class was finished. My next class didn't start for another two hours so I wanted to get something to eat. I'm always eating and it's beginning to get a little weird.
"Really? You seemed so excited yesterday?" We made our way across the campus to the diner across from the school.
"Ha ha. Fuck you..." She grumbled. I chuckled and shrugged my shoulders "...all he talked about was going to New York and trying to get one of his paintings in the MET"
"Well, the MET is a big deal but at least you went out like you wanted"
"Yay, I went out on a boring ass date" She deadpanned "What'd you do last night?" Have four beers and fall asleep in my bed with my sixteen year old neighbor on my mind.
"I had a research paper. Four pages" I lied.
"Oh on what?" Shit.
"The history of… Yann Martel" The only book I have by Yann Martel is 'Life of Pi' and I hated that book. I read it in high school. "I was typing all night"
"You finished it?"
"Yeah"
"Chad… you need to go on a date" I snorted a laugh and shook my head "Why not? Maybe you'll be happier if you stop sleeping around"
"Not this shit again, Portlyn" I groaned "Why do you want me to date someone?"
"Because ever since Han-"
"Don't fucking say her name" I cut her off. She inhaled deeply and clicked her tongue "Let's not even talk about it. If you want to end whatever we're doing, Portlyn then say so. Don't try to coax me into dating because it's not happening"
"Okay, damn… take it easy…" She pulled out her phone and jabbed at the keys "You wanna know what's weird?"
"Not really, no" Sonny's boyfriend dropped her off this morning in that Black Escalade he rented at the airport most likely. I mean, we all know his intentions with that truck and it's only a matter of time to see that silver ring on Sonny's finger disappear.
"You're really quiet" She said "You're never this quiet"
"I think we're getting a little too close. You're… prying into making tell you how I feel and maybe we should take a break"
"That's fine by me but I'm still hungry and we're going to the same place to eat…" She shrugged
SONNY POV
"Hey Sonny… you wanna meet up after school?" Some guy came up to me with two of his friends. I narrowed my eyes and shook my head.
"No…" I said timidly.
"Well… you should give me a call and we can talk about how things go down" He and his friends walked off while laughing. I shook my head and rolled my eyes. They're so weird.
I opened up my locker and took my textbook out of my book bag to place in my locker. Everyone was whispering about me and Seth hadn't said a word to me today. I swear that Daniel is ignoring me and Tawni had everything to do with it. I blew my hair out of my face and closed my book bag.
"Hey…" Daniel came up to me.
"Wow, you're speaking to me? That's awesome" I slammed my locker closed and folded my arms.
"I heard about what Penelope did to Tawni"
"What does that have to do with me?"
"Why didn't you stop her? That was real childish and stupid" He leaned on the locker next to mine and quirked a brow.
"Did Tawni tell you how she told all my business to everyone who was sitting in the pizzeria yesterday? All of her friends plus your brother, Grady, Chad…" Who already knew "…Bryce and that girl they were with yesterday know that I'm a virgin"
"You're a virgin?" He exclaimed quietly "Why does she keep calling you a whore and a slut then?" I shrugged "There's a rumor going around about how you…" He trailed off. I furrowed my brows and stepped back.
"A rumor about what?" He just shook his head, making me want to know even more "A rumor about what, Daniel?"
"There's a rumor… saying that you gave me… a blowjob"
"What!" I shrieked "H-How! W-Why! I've done nothing to her! Why does she hate me?"
"Tawni's always had a crush on me and she doesn't like that I hang out with you"
"But that rumor!" Is that why those guys came up to me like that? I looked around to people in the hallway and caught them staring and laughing and some of the girls were shaking their heads. "Oh my god…" I breathed out.
"I denied everything but it's still going around" A lump formed in my throat as a guy that passed by imitated a blowjob with his hands. I grabbed my bag and started to the cafeteria. Daniel called out my name but I just kept going through the hall, ignoring everyone. I waited on line for ten minutes and got a Caesar salad in a plastic container and headed over to the table I usually sit at. I froze when I looked at the table and in black marker it said 'Sluts Only' How did the staff not see this? How come no one saw this happen? I shook my head and walked out of the cafeteria. I sat in front of my locker and opened up my lunch. I took the fork out of the plastic and started eating my lunch.
"You wanna know the part I like about this?" Penelope came walking down the hallway with her lunch in her hand. "I don't have to pay for a beverage" She slid down the locker next to me and opened up her bag "Would you like a soda?"
"Yeah" I chuckled and took the bottle of Pepsi out of her hand "You know, I'm a nice person…"
"I'm not so… I'm going to get her back for this. One for making my high school years hell. Then the other for messing with you"
"Cold hearted revenge is the best way to do things" I nodded, putting the food into my mouth and chewing "What's most precious to her?"
"Her hair… her lipstick…"
"Nothing closer? I bet you Tawni has pictures of herself in her phone" I insisted "It'd be a shame if those got out and printed and put in students lockers" Penelope looked at me with a amused grin on her face.
"Her… nudes?" I nodded "Oh my god, Sonny… that's brilliant" She crossed her leg and took a sip out of her Pepsi. "That's beyond brilliant. She definitely doesn't want us as her enemies"
"No, no she doesn't" I lifted my bottle and cheered with hers.
What is wrong with you?
"Yo, I heard your boyfriend is in town" Daniel said lowly "James told me and I want to meet him"
"Oh, yeah…" I pushed open the school doors and saw his truck idling in front of the school. I smiled a bit and saw his big brown eyes look at me. He stood in a white t shirt and a pair of jeans and his arms folded. It was just the awe affect that he had on all girls. They stared. I gave a small smile. "He's right there…"
"That's him? Holy shit, he's tall"
"Still want to meet him?"
"I'm gonna feel so short"
"Mhm" I stepped down the stairs quickly and walked up to him. He smirked and pulled me into his arms.
"You go to a school of blondes. Do you know how awkward it is to be stared at for minutes at a time?" Do you know how awkward this is after being accused of giving a blowjob?
"You should've stayed in the car" I laughed and stood on my tippy toes to kiss him. He kissed me slowly before smiling "Oh wait…" I turned around and motioned to Daniel "Daniel, Mikey… Mikey, Daniel"
"How's it going, man?" Daniel said, bro hugging Michael and immediately laughing. "I can't. He's too tall and this isn't fair" Michael chuckled and shrugged his shoulders.
"You're like six feet, Daniel" I said to him
"That's nothing compared to your boyfriend and I'm intimidated so I'll see you tomorrow at school" He chuckled, turning away with a wave. I let out a small laugh before moving Mikey out the way and getting in the passenger seat. He got in on the driver's side and pulled away from the sidewalk.
"So… how was school?"
"Horrible"
"It couldn't have been horrible"
"It was… so can you just take me home so… I can do my homework and forget about everything…"
"It was that bad?" I didn't want to tell him what was going on in school. He'll ask me why there are rumors of such nature and it'll be an argument from there. He gets insanely jealous.
"Yes…"
CHAD POV
"Why are you guys in my house, drinking my beer, and sitting on my couch when I'm not even home" I dropped my car keys on the table along with my Chinese food in my hand. I wasn't in the mood for anything and I really wanted to be alone. I wanted to just be alone in my house for this entire afternoon.
"There's a party tonight"
"Tonight?"
"Mhm…"
"Where at?"
"David's house"
"David… David Gills?"
"Mhm…" Grady nodded. I picked up my food and headed towards my backyard. "You're not going to go?"
"No, I don't like David" I knew they were following me because when I sat down at the table and opened the clamshell container of Sesame chicken with a side of Lo Mien. "I'm not going because David has been arrested and I really don't need to be arrested"
"You're not going to get arrested"
"Yes, I am" Sonny's sitting on her balcony ledge eating strawberries. I knew he was standing in the doorway because she was smiling. The guys didn't see it because their backs were turned. "Last time I almost got arrested because he had drugs and apparently they found some on me"
"It was a mistake" Bryce groaned "They told you that and let you free as soon as they pulled up at the precinct" She had on a pair of shorts and a t shirt. He hand his hands on her legs. Michael needs to get his fucking hands off her legs.
"Not the point" I muttered. She held out a strawberry toward him. He bit it and wiped underneath his lip. My jaw clenched. "I live next door to a cop, the last thing I need is his unit showing up to a party that I'm at"
"Chad, come on…"
"I'm not going and that's that"
"Okay see this… is bad" James said, she kissed him happily and gave him another strawberry. "Bryce is Grady's wingman and you're my wingman. You not going to that party is fucking up my whole plan so you have to go"
Don't you wish it was you she was feeding strawberries to?
Fuck. You.
"I don't have to do anything" I spat out "I'm not going and don't ask again" He cupped her face and kissed her with a smile. I fucking hate myself.
"What crawled up your ass?" Bryce grumbled. Sonny walked back into her room with the bowl in her hand and Mikey's arms around her waist. I lost my appetite and I just wanted to drink. I wanted to drink myself to sleep for being such a douchebag. Her balcony doors closed and my heart damn near stopped.
"Get out" I said, closing up my food and heading to the house.
"What's wrong with you?" Bryce exclaimed.
"Nothing…"
"You know, ever since Hanna left you, you've had a rod up your ass" He chuckled. I tossed my food in the trash and shrugged.
"Get the fuck out of my house"
"Or even so, ever since you've been fucking Po-"
"Get the fuck out of my house before I fucking make you get out of my house! I'm not in the fucking mood for this shit, alright?" I exclaimed loudly. They all left skeptically; leaving me alone like I wanted to be. I pulled out my phone and started a new text message.
SONNY POV
We were kissing like always. Like always… I enjoyed it but there wasn't that amazing supernova thing that I had with Chad. There weren't the butterflies in my stomach like there was with Chad. It felt kind of forced. I mean don't get me wrong, he was a good kisser… great kisser actually but it just didn't give me that big 'wow' feeling. Neither my parents nor my brothers were home and in the back of my mind, I knew he was going to try and I didn't want to. He backed me up towards the bed and hovered over me; I placed my hands on his shoulders, and curled him into his shirt. He ran his hands down my side and rested them on hips, pushing my shirt up a little. I really like him… I do but he's not the one I want my first time to be with. I don't know who my first time is going to be with exactly but he's not the one.
"Michael…" I got out between kisses. Let's not forget that he's bigger that me so it's a little hard to just push him off.
"Come on, Sonny…" He kissed down my cheek and down to my neck. Still no comparison to the way Chad does it. I furrowed my brows as his one of his hand slid down my thigh and hitch it around his waist.
"Mikey, I…" His lips cut me off.
"Babe… your parents aren't home" He tried "We're alone…" He then coaxed onto my lips. His hand slid further up my shirt and he grinded himself on me. That's… a first.
"Michael wait…" He only proceeded to kiss me.
"If you love me, you'll let me" But I don't love him and he doesn't love me. I don't want to. His large hand cupped my breasts, making me panic and squirm a little bit. What's wrong with him?
"Michael, stop…" I told him. It's not like what I'm saying isn't clear. He grinded against me again and I pushed at his shoulders. I dropped my hand to his that was under my shirt "Uh…" I furrowed my brows, at him continuing to kiss me. He went back to my neck, ignoring my protests "Michael, get off me" My phone beeped twice in my bag across the room. I moved his hand that was on my breast to a safer place like my waist but he wasn't listening. "Get off me…" I pushed at him once more. He stopped and sat back on his heels on the bed. I got up quickly and pulled down my shirt.
"Sonny, I-"
"What the hell is wrong with you?" I breathed out, fixing my skirt and going over to my phone.
"I don't know, I'm sorry"
"I clearly said stop repeatedly, Mikey"
"Sorry"
'Let me at least show you that I'm sorry' – CDC
I dropped my phone back in the bag and shook my head with an exhale.
"You need to… go take a cold shower or something" I exclaimed angrily, leaving my room and heading down the stairs.
CHAD POV
"Honey…" My mother, Faith, came into my room while I was lying faced down on my bed in nothing but a pair of basketball shorts. "The neighbors invited us over. They're having a small barbeque and you're invited also. Put a shirt on and get up"
"I'm not getting out of bed"
"I'm going to get someone to drag you out of this bed. Like Jake's sister. Sonny? She seemed sweet. I bet she can get you out of this bed"
"Sonny cannot get me out of this bed. Hell, then thousand dollars can't get me out of this bed, right now"
"I'll take this pack of Newport's and flush them down the toilet" She threatened. I shrugged and waved her away.
"You can take them. I don't want them"
"You stopped smoking?" She asked excitedly "That's great…"
"No, mom. I just don't want that pack"
"Oh well… if you want food… come next door" She walked out of my room. I listened to her tell my father that I wasn't getting out of bed. The front door opened and then closed. I moved my arms underneath the pillow and sighed. I'm moping around like a baby but then again… I didn't care. Today was just not my day. My phone vibrated on my nightstand and beeped once. I picked it up to read the message.
'Come over' – SM
'No, I'm tired' – CDC
'Come over... please' – SM
'No thanks, Sonshine' – CDC
Five minutes later, there was a soft knock on my bedroom door. It pushed open and a large sigh broke the silence in my room. I knew it was Sonny. Sonny has the lightest footsteps ever and whenever Sonny comes around she knocks.
"It's four o clock in the afternoon and you're lying in bed like someone broke your heart"
Ha fucking ha
"I thought you weren't allowed in my house, Sonshine" I mumbled into my pillow. I listened to her chortle and felt the bed dip slightly from her weight.
"Yeah but my dad knows where I'm at and so does Jake so… I guess it's not a big deal" She stated, sitting on the bed pretzel style a few inches away from me. "So…"
"Are you bored? Why don't you go bother your boyfriend?"
"I'm kinda upset with him right now" She grumbled, I looked at her shortly before quirking a brow.
"So, you come over here looking for what, Sonny?"
"I actually um… w-wanted to talk to you because I can't talk to my brother about this stuff" She fiddled with her thumbs. "W-When I was in the house… with him alone. We were kissing…" Why is she telling me this? I don't want to hear this "…and he tried and he said that if I loved him I'll let him but…" She just shook her head "I told him to stop but… he…" I furrowed my brows and pushed myself up on my elbows. What is she getting at? I hope it's not what I think it is.
"He didn't…"
"No, he stopped but he was like pushing him himself on me and he was… a-aggressive. I wanted advice… from an older guy"
"You want advice?" She nodded "From me?" She nodded again "I don't think you should take advice from me about your boyfriend"
"Why?"
I don't even want you two together.
"Because I'm not very fond of your fucking boyfriend, that's why"
"What do you mean?" She shook her head curiously.
"I don't like your boyfriend. I don't like him. I don't like him. With you" I shrugged "Whatever problems you have with him you have to work out on your own because I'm not fucking helping you with that" I laid back down and turned away from her. She sat there for a couple of seconds before getting up and heading towards the door.
"Alright, forget it then. Your mom will bring some food to you" She said lowly. I sighed and sat up as she walked out of my room. I quickly but quietly got out of bed and stopped her by her arm. "Chad, just forget it…" She waved me away. I hate seeing that look that she gives me when she's upset with me.
"Look… I'm sorry. I'm sorry for standing you up and being a jerk all the time. Even with that comment I made a second ago. I don't know what's wrong with me…"
"You know, I'm sorry too"
"For what?"
"I know you knew but I'm sorry for… liking you. It's made things confusing and it's clear that you don't like me…" She stated "You were just playing around. I actually get it now"
No… I like you. Believe me…
"Sonny-"
"So, don't worry about it…" She smiled lightly and shrugged "I'll give your mother a plate of food to give to you" My stomach dropped a little. What have I done? How can Sonny think I don't like her?
Because you treated her like shit, maybe?
Shut up!
Sonny turned around and jogged down the steps. You know, I just pushed her into Michael even more. Shit… the front door opened and then closed. I groaned loudly and threw my arms up before falling back down to my bed. Fuck, fuck… FUCK! I'm not going over there just to get jealous. I'm a grown man!
Yeah!
Who likes a sixteen year old girl!
Shit…
