Chapter 9: You make me hate you

Sonny closed her locked after she threw her books inside. She was still wondering about a week ago when she had felt something for Chad and she had realized that she felt at ease with him but she couldn't find a reason why. Her flu and fever was gone and she was healthy once again. She leaned against the locker, watching peers walk by and teachers talk to each other, her head was against the locker, now looking at the ceiling. Wow… she was bored.

"Hey Sonny!" Sonny looked down and there was Tawni.

Wait Tawni? She hadn't spoken to her in ages! Tawni looked the same as always. There was something with Tawni though, she could pretend to be selfish and conceited, pretty much like Chad but she knew her friends like the back of her hand and would help them though she would never admit it out loud.

"Hi Tawni" Sonny smiled back, giddy as always.

"So… I have a ticket for the carnival this afternoon and I can't go, you know how they always ruin my hair and there is so much people" She whined, frowning. Sonny nodded along. "Because I'm generous I am giving one of my tickets to you, use them wisely" She smirked.

Sonny grabbed it from Tawni's manicured hands "Thanks Tawn, so who has the other one?"

Tawni smirked wider and flipped her hair over her shoulder "Oh, who? Well Chad of course" She giggled and left. "Don't forget to enter with him!" She shouted over the hall voices and everyone turned to look at Tawni Hart.

Sonny looked at her ticket. What was Tawni's purpose? And why did Chad got the other ticket? As far as Sonny knew he would never go to a carnival. He would say his hair would get ruined and that those places stink, his argument was very similar to Tawni's.

She sighed and saved the ticket on her pocket. A thud at her left interrupted her. Sonny saw Chad leaning against her locker.

"Do you know what's up with Tawni?" He asked. His big blue eyes shone and his skin was flawless.

Sonny shrugged "Not really, she is never predictable" She let out a long sigh "Anyway are you going to the carnival?"

Chad rubbed the back of his neck and readjusted his jacket "Yeah, I guess so, are you?"

"Of course! I always go to carnivals, they are always so much fun" Sonny grinned from ear to ear. Chad looked at her warmly; he loved how she could be happy almost always.

"I will wait for you there at five pm alright?" He nudged her shoulder and walked down the hall leaving Sonny battle with her inner thoughts.

. . . .

Sonny sat on a bench in the carnival. There were a lot of people walking around, mainly couples. She just hopped that Chad didn't ditch her but he wasn't capable of doing that unless he was mad, and as long as it concerned her, he wasn't mad at her.

Soon she found a head of blonde hair approaching to her. It was Chad. "I'm sorry I'm late, did you wait a lot?" He asked, sitting next to her.

Sonny shook her head "No and don't worry, now let's have some fun!" She chirped.

"Wait!" He grabbed her hand to stop her "I am supposed to wait for Joanna, I invited her to the carnival" Sonny's face fell. Somewhat she fell a bit disappointed but why? It wasn't a date; it was just a friendly hang out.

Chad put his hands on his pockets and adjusted his jacket around him. He was wearing a blue shirt with squares, blue jeans and his jacket. His hair was the same sexy mess as always. He was also wearing the same chain necklace he always wore. It was square shaped but Sonny noticed that it could open.

Sonny on the other hand was wearing jeans, a black shirt with a blue cardigan and converse.

"So… when is she supposed to come? And why did you invite her?" Sonny didn't mean to sound rude but she did, not that much though. Chad shrugged; he was used to Sonny sounding rude to him almost every day.

He stretched his arms and shrugged "I kind of like her y'know? And she had nothing to do today so I said why not? Besides I know you wouldn't like to be totally alone with me"

"I wouldn't have minded" Sonny muttered under her breath.

"What did you say?"

Sonny sighed and readjusted her hair that was falling on her eyes "Um, nothing just… let's go to get something to eat, I'm hungry" Sonny walked away from Chad to the food place. She didn't feel good, not at all. Chad could be so sweet but then mean, what was he trying to say? Was he using her or something? He was a conceited jerk but she cared about him nonetheless. It was very confusing what she felt right now; she couldn't look at him the same as she always did.

The last few weeks he had tutored her and they had grown a bit closer, get to know each other without bickering that much and she liked it, she felt happy and she could tell Chad what she couldn't tell Lucy. Over the last few months Lucy wasn't being a good friend, neither was Tom. Both of them had withdrawn themselves from the group leaving their best friends, Sonny and Chad alone and in consequence, they had grown closer.

"Alright, what do you want to eat?" Chad asked right behind Sonny.

Sonny looked around; there was Mc Donald's, Burger King, KFC and Sushi.

"I will eat Sushi, what about you?" She pointed at the sushi stand. Chad bit his bottom lip as he decided.

"I don't know" He took out his phone and checked any missed calls. Apparently Joanna hadn't called yet.

Chad placed a hand on Sonny's lower back and she couldn't help but shiver at his touch.

"I think I will have the same" He whispered in her ear through the loud music in the air.

Sonny nodded and walked to the Sushi stand, waiting for her turn. Chad was behind her, his hand still on her back and that touch made her feel all kinds of feelings.

Two more turns and they could finally order something.

"Chad!" Sonny turned around and saw a girl with long blonde hair and sparkling blue eyes. Her nose was straight and had plump red lips; she was taller than Sonny and had a really good body.

Chad smiled "Hi Joanna, just in time" Joanna giggled and kissed Chad on the cheek. Sonny rolled her eyes. She felt so uncomfortable, she could have come alone.

"Next one" The cashier said. Sonny sighed in relief, one more turn and she wouldn't need to stand their chit chat. Joanna's over sweet voice surrounded Sonny and Chad's laugh could be heard out loud.

"Joanna, do you want to eat Sushi?" Chad asked.

Joanna giggled "Sure Chad, I'd love to"

"Next turn" Sonny smiled at the cashier.

"I would like…" She looked at the menu "Your goldfish specialty" The cashier nodded and ordered his partner. She waited and heard Chad mutter sweet nothings to Joanna. They seemed to have a nice time didn't they?

Sonny crossed her arms as she waited for her order. What was wrong with her? Just because Chad had a date and she didn't wasn't an excuse to be annoyed right?

She tapped on the floor with her foot, the minutes becoming eternal.

"Here is your order m'am, it will be $5" Sonny nodded and took out the cash from her pocket but before she could pay her she heard Chad.

"Here it is sir" He paid her meal. Chad smiled his million dollar smile at Sonny but she frowned. What was he doing?

"What are you doing?" She grabbed her plate. Chad shrugged, placing the hand that had been on her lower back, now on Joanna's.

"Paying like a gentleman would do"

Sonny scoffed and passed past him as she sat on a table. Gentleman? Yeah right, he wouldn't do that but he was with Joanna so he wanted to impress her.

Sonny felt a weight on the bench she was sitting on

"Having a good time?" He asked. Sonny smiled and nodded.

"Yeah" She whispered.

"It doesn't seem like it to me, you here by yourself, where is your date?" Sonny glared at the man. He had 23 years old, brown hair and brown eyes. He was Sonny's annoying but brotherly cousin, Andrew.

"I didn't bring a date" She replied.

"But I saw you with Chad"

Sonny glared at him once again and smacked the back of his head. "We came together as friends! That's what we are, friends, don't you ever get it? We are just friends!" She exploded in anger and thankfully nobody noticed her and Chad wasn't anywhere near either. Andrew looked at her smugly.

"I get it that you said that you are just friends but it doesn't seem you get that point or am I wrong? You are trying to convince yourself Sonny" Sonny was startled. What did he mean? Besides, who was he to psychoanalyze her? Not that he was right anyway.

"Shut up Andrew, what are you doing here anyway?" But Andrew didn't reply. Sonny smiled and rolled her eyes "You can talk you know?"

"Thank you and I came here with my date but she is in the bathroom and to make time I saw you here and came to talk to you, isn't that interesting?" Sonny discarded a ride from him to her home. She wanted to leave.

"I see" She giggled "Well, thank you for talking to me, I feel so much better talking to my psychologist slash cousin"

"That's why I'm here for Sis" Andrew nudged her gently. He was like a brother to her and thankfully he wasn't those over protective relatives. "I have to go now, have fun" He kissed her forehead and left.

Sonny finished eating her sushi. It tasted really good but as always, they finish really fast. She wiped any food that might have fallen on her outfit and stood up trying to find Chad.

She finally found him talking and chuckling next to Joanna. Sonny felt something in her gut, similar to when she got sick but it wasn't that bad. She tapped on his shoulder.

He looked up and saw Sonny "Sonny! Where the hell have you been?" She bit her cheeks and tried to contain the urge to smack his cheek. He looked worried but apparently his date was more important that her.

"None of your business" She replied bitterly "I'm going to have fun, see you later" She turned around to walk away but he grabbed her arm.

"Sonny what's wrong with you tonight? Joanna thinks that you are upset about something, want to talk about it?" He asked with those big blue eyes of his.

"Why do you care about me Chad? I know, you are my friend and all and you said that you care about me but face it Chad, usually you are more caring about those girls of yours and I'm not more important than them aren't I?" She was so pissed at Chad.

"Don't be stupid, you know I care about you and I don't like to see you upset" He was fuming "And—"He was cut off by Sonny.

"Don't make me laugh Cooper, you make me upset almost every time when you bicker with me, when you steal my things, when you humiliate me in front of my friends or when you annoy me in class so I can get bad grades, what's the point of it anyway Chad? And then you act all caring and sweet! What kind of sick game are you playing? You make me sick! You make me hate you!" She shrieked. Some people glanced at her and Chad's discussion. He looked hurt but he was no way in hell going to let her win the discussion.

Chad was pale and he swallowed the lump he had on his throat "Well you are no different Munroe! You make me hate you too! You are always so happy and enthusiastic that is overly annoying! Then you disappear without telling me why. You act all so nice with everybody but me—"

"That's because you make me so mad!"

"Cut off that crap Munroe, stop being so cynic"

"I'm the cynic one? You act all might and glorious with everyone and then you are a whole complete different person with me!"

"Shut up! Just shut up!" He yelled but Sonny didn't shut up.

"I so want to kill you right now! Grab a bat and hit you when you are sleeping, grab a hair drier and put it in your shower when you are in it so you can get electrocuted, sticking pencils at your eyes so I won't have to look at that shade of blue or get a scissor and cut your hair!" Chad winced; she was being a bit sadist and he didn't like to imagine if that could happen. "See? I'm never like this but you make me!"

He grabbed her shoulders. Now they had gathered a lot of public and Chad couldn't risk being recognized discussing loudly at Sonny, he had a reputation. "Let's go Sonny, you drank too much coffee"

Sonny noticed what he was thinking and mumbled "See?" She whispered "You only care about yourself" He could see the tears forming in her eyes. "Bye Chad" She mumbled. She got off his hold and walked away and for once in Chad's life he felt something in his gut.

Guilt and something else he couldn't quite place what it was.
