CHAD'S POV

It had been three weeks since James and Sonny had broken up and one week since James had been suspended. There was only two weeks until Junior prom and I still hadn't asked Sonny to go with me. Devon had found the guts to ask Chloe, Nico had finally asked Tawni and Tyler Brennan had asked Portlyn to go with him. Out of our friendship group Sonny and I were the only ones without dates, though tonight that was all going to change. I'd thought about how I was going to ask her and after coming up with several ideas that seemed either really lame or cliché, or even both I finally worked out how I was going to ask her.

I was in her backyard throwing small stones at her balcony doors trying to capture her attention. I knew she was home, she'd told me at school that she was going to be spending the night studying. I could only hope my plan didn't ruin HER plans.

CLUNK! A stone I had just thrown hit the glass on her balcony doors. I was only throwing them lightly so they'd make a clinking noise against the glass door and not break it. I waited for a few minutes to see if the door would open and Sonny would step out onto her balcony. I was getting ready to throw another one up when the doors opened and Sonny stepped through them.
"Sonny! Down here!" I called out. She looked down at me clearly confused at what I was doing standing in her backyard.

"Chad what ARE you doing here?" she asked sternly as she crossed her arms.

"I want to talk to you about something."

"And you didn't use the front door like normal people because?" Yep, she was annoyed; I could tell but I was about to make it up to her as long as she got her pretty self down here.

"I felt like being adventurous." I smiled up at her and she just rolled her eyes at me. She uncrossed her arms and walked back into her room, closing her balcony doors behind her. I began to think that she wasn't coming down when I heard the soft click of a door closing. I looked up to see Sonny walking towards me. As she did so I noticed just how beautiful she looked. Her long, wavy dark brown hair was tied up in a messy bun with a few stray hairs that glimmered against the sunset sky. It was a bit cold outside so she was wearing a pair of black leggings and an over sized sweater that looked all too familiar to me. Wait a minute, that was MY sweater. I was wondering where that had gone.

"Are you wearing my sweater?"

"Uh yea, you can have it back if you want." She tugged at the hem and began to take the jumper off but I reached up and pulled the hem back down.

"Don't worry about it. You can keep it. It looks better on you then it does me." She gave me a small smile as she sat down on the grass next to me, crossing her legs and leaning back, her hands firmly on the ground,

"It's so pretty out here." She said as she looked up at the sunset sky that was darkening. She shut her eyes, lost in the beauty of the sky then realised that she wasn't alone. She tore her eyes away from the sky and looked at me.

"So what do you want to talk about?"

"Nothing really. I just wanted to get you out here so you would eat something."

"Yes, because knocking on my front door and coming inside my house isn't achievable." She said in a teasing tone. I smirked as I reached into a bag that was next to me and took out take-out containers that contained Chinese food.

"I'm just being adventurous. Come on, be adventurous with me." She bit her lip and nodded her head as I handed her the food and eating utensils.

"So, how's the studying going?" I asked her after a few minutes of silence.

"It's going alright. You know, you actually came at the right time. I was just thinking about getting some dinner." I nodded my head in understanding. She'd been studying for a few hours now and her mum was still working, her mum always worked late so Sonny was pretty independent. I gave Sonny a small smile as I chewed on my food.

"Must've been best friend telepathy." I joked which thankfully she laughed at. Phew!

"That was pretty cheesy." She said in between giggles, lightly pushing me.

"Oh come on, admit it. You're glad I'm here with your favourite foods. If I hadn't you probably would've had toast for dinner." I wasn't lying when I said that either, she'd told me she'd done that before when she'd being doing some intense studying.

"No I wouldn't have!" she said defensively. Uh-huh, there she goes denying it. She knew I was right, she was just refusing to admit it.

"Yes you would've Sonny. I know you would've. Besides, it's not like you haven't done that before."

"Actually you're wrong. My mum left me money for pizza."

"Yea, well Chinese is better." I argued.

"I have to agree with you on that." We both smiled at each other then fell into a comfortable silence as we ate.

"So, why haven't you asked anyone to prom yet?" Sonny asked me. Oh shit, should I just ask her now? Forget what I had planned? Nah, that would ruin it. What I had planned was much better.

"How do you know I haven't?"

"Because you haven't."

"Ok, you're right. I haven't. Why don't YOU have a date?" I pointed at her with my fork.

"How do you know I haven't?" Now she was just using my words against me. I narrowed my eyes at her and repeated what she said.

"Because you haven't." Sonny put her food down next to her and sighed.

"I guess I'm just not good enough to get a date." Yes you are. I thought to myself.

"I'm sure someone will ask."

"I'm not fussed if I have a date or not. As long as I'm with my friends I'll be fine." She picked up her food and started eating again. We made some small talk as we finished our food.

"I'm full." Sonny groaned as she put her empty food container down and fell back on the grass so that she was lying down. I laid back down next to her and looked over to her. By now it was dark and the way the moonlight shined on her made her look even more beautiful. All I wanted to do was kiss her but I knew that I couldn't. She wasn't my girlfriend. At least not yet anyway. One day, she will be...I hope.

"Are you full enough to not have a fortune cookie?" I asked as I tore my eyes away from her.

"Nope. I could go for a fortune cookie." She looked over at me and smiled. I sat up and grabbed a bag with a fortune cookie in it and handed it to her. I'd paid extra money at the Chinese restaurant to have her fortune cookie especially made but in a few minutes it was all going to be worth it. I watched as she cracked the cookie and pulled out her fortune. She unfolded the paper and read out her future.

"'Sonny, will you go to prom with me. Chad.'" Her eyes widened in shock and she looked over at me. We sat in silence as she thought of her answer. I noticed her pinch herself then wince in pain. Fuck, the silence was killing me.

"Sonny, please. Say something, anything. This silence is killing me."

"Chad are you sure you really want to take me to prom? I mean wouldn't you rather take some tall leggy, fashionable blonde? Why me? Are you just playing the pity card because I have no date?" she rambled on without looking at me.

"Sonny look at me." I waited for her to look at me before I continued talking.

"I am positive there's no one else I would rather take to prom. I want to go with you. It's you or no one." She smiled at me and her eyes lit up.

"Then yes. Yes I'll go to prom with you." She leaned over to kiss me on the cheek and I lightly blushed. I prayed that she hadn't seen me blush. I was sure she liked me, I wanted to ask her to be my girlfriend but I wasn't 100 percent sure if she actually did like me more than a friend or not so I didn't bother saying anything. We sat there in silence for a bit and I debated on what to do. I was about to say goodbye when Sonny spoke up.

"Do you want to come inside? We could play some video games or something." She suggested.

"But I thought you were studying?"

"It can wait. Besides, hanging out with you is MUCH better then studying." I nodded my head as I stood. I held out my hand and helped her up off the ground. We grabbed our rubbish and threw it un the outside trashcan then went upstairs to her room where we played video games until I decided to go home.

YAY! Chad asked Sonny to prom! YAY! Sonny said yes to going to prom with Chad. *Squeals with delight* Now we can all be happy and hope that they get together soon. I've been thinking about what dress Sonny should wear to prom so in a review tell me a dress you like on Demi so I can decide on one :)
