Chapter 10 Everything Revealed
As they stepped out into the dressing room, Chad's guess was right. The room looked even worse than it did before. The entire room was bare except for a few pieces of shattered glass and ceiling, most of which had been blown away. Chad was still standing in the doorway while Sonny had made her way to the center of the room.
"It's gone," she said softly, trying to keep herself from crying. "It's all gone." She couldn't keep the tears back, and soon they poured down her cheeks while she crouched on the floor.
Chad ran over to her and patted her back. She looked up; Chad cringed slightly as he saw her upset again. He offered her his hand and she took it. As soon as she was up, she let go of his hand and wrapped her arms around his neck. As she cried into his shoulder, he wrapped his hands around her and tried to comfort her.
"Shh, it's ok, Sonny. It's ok." Sonny stopped crying and looked up at him, slightly annoyed with him.
"It's not ok, Chad Dylan Cooper!" she screamed. Chad's eyes widened as she continued. "Everything's gone! Everything!" She broke out into crying and hugged Chad again. "I'm sorry, Chad," she whispered.
"Sonny, not everything is gone," he said.
"What's still left?" she muttered. Chad reached into his pocket and took out the picture of him and So Random! after prom.
"This for starters." Sonny broke the hug and looked down at the picture.
"You saved it?" she asked bewildered.
"Course I did," he smiled. "And all your friends are still alive."
Sonny looked deep into his blue eyes. "And you're still here." Chad smiled back at her. He put away the picture as they made their way outside. The light from the sun blinded them for a second, but once their eyes adjusted they stared around. The hurricane had done a lot of damage to the city. The streets were flooded with water, trees littered the ground, and glass from the buildings were missing, but they were just happy to be alive.
"Oh, Chad! Look!" Sonny exclaimed. Chad looked in the direction that Sonny was pointing at and gasped slightly. Stretching from one side of the sky to the other was an enormous, brightly colored rainbow. Sonny smiled at the beautiful image while Chad thought.
Tell her now, Chad. Tell her now! This is the perfect moment. He cleared his throat. "S-Sonny?" he stammered. Sonny looked into his eyes and he looked into hers. Do. It. Now. "Sonny, I know that sometimes I can seem like the biggest jerk in the world, and then other times I really care about you, but the reason is because," he thought about the words carefully. "Is because since the first moment I met you, I've been in love with you." Sonny just stared at him with an expressionless look on her face. While Chad immediately jumped to the conclusion that she didn't like him back, Sonny suddenly leaped into his arms and pressed her lips against his. Chad, taken by surprise, pulled back.
"It took you long enough," Sonny laughed. Chad smiled a warm smile as he leaned forward and kissed Sonny. When they separated they stared at each other for a long while. When Sonny slipped her hand into his, they turned and looked at the rainbow in loving silence.
