A/N Last chapter! Im sad. Haha. Don't forget to review! &Please read my note at the bottom. Thank you& Have a nice day! :)
"M-my car." Sonny repeated for about the billionth time that day. She stared at her car, as the firefighters washed over it one last time, making sure it wouldn't burst into flames again. Tawni and Chad stood on opposite sides of her, patting her apologetically on the back. It didn't help though, her car was totaled. Her mom would be mad, and now she had no car to get around in.
"It's alright, Sonny. I'll give you a ride to work on Monday, and home on Friday. Other than that, you don't really need a car, considering you sleep in our dressing room during the week." Tawni tried to calm her, but it didn't matter. Maybe that was one problem solved, but her mom would still be mad.
"Thanks, Tawni. But my mom is going to be pissed." She mumbled, burying her face in her hands after. Chad pulled her close.
"It wasn't your fault. It was that stupid freak's fault. I don't even know how he got out of that looney bin." Chad scowled, looking off into the distance, as if he was imagining Edgardo getting smashed by a piano. He was imagining that, actually.
The cops had caught Edgardo, and had put him in a mental institute, but somehow he escaped. He was a true psycho.
Tawni shook her head, thinking this whole suitation was looney. Before Tawni could say something else, the firefighters approached the entrance of the studio, where the three had been standing, out of the way of danger.
"Excuse miss, but we found this by your car. I don't know how it got out of the car, but it was saved by the flames." The taller of the two firefighters explained, holding out his hand and handing over a sparkling object.
It was the engagment ring.
Sonny practically screamed and snatched it from his hand.
"Thank you so much! Edgardo, the guy who burned my car, must have dropped it!" She replied, beaming. Chad let out a sigh of relief. He wouldn't have to get a new ring, and he now had his grandmother's ring back.
The firefighters waved and walked away, but the trio still couldn't get any peace. The cops approached them and asked why Edgardo had such a grudge against Sonny.
After the firefighters and cops were gone, and Sonny's car was towed away, she had to call her mom. She was scared, but she had to tell her some time. They were back in the dressing room, and Chad and Tawni had continued watching Sleepover. Sonny went into the bathroom and dialed her mom.
"Sonny, guess what I saw on the news?" Her mom greeted her, without a "hello".
"Hi Mom. Nice to see you, too." Sonny replied, making sure her mom could tell she was annoyed.
"Sorry, hun, but it was at your studio. There was a car burning. Go look outside, is it still there? Im watching Cooking with the Coopers, so I can't check now."
"Ok mom, first of all, you still watch that show after all that has happened? And second of all, that's kind of what I wanted to talk to you about." She mumbled the last part, her heart skipping a few beats.
"Yes, it's very educational. And I know we'll get along, some day. And, you wanted to talk to me about the burning car?" Her mom asked, confused. She had no idea why her daughter was calling her over a burning car.
Sonny gulped. She couldn't do it. She'd never be able to drive again. It wasn't her fault, but life was unfair that way. Her mom was unfair that way. I mean, she was overall nice, but when it came to expensive stuff, she got really mad at her daughter.
"Yeahthatwasmycar." She spat out all at once, then taking in a deep breath and holding it until her mom replied.
She heard a spoon drop in the background, and no reply.
"Mom?" Sonny barely managed to say. When her mom didn't talk, you knew she was the madder than mad. She was furious.
"I just have one question, Allison." Oh boy, Allison? She was really, extremely, furious.
Sonny waited for her to ask, not knowing if she even able to utter one word. Her heart was basically in her throat.
"Did you start the fire?"
"No! Of course not! It was that Edgardo freak!" Sonny growled with anger, realizing she could speak. It was the truth. And she was angry.
Her mom sighed on the other end. She was happy that her daughter didn't start the fire, because that would mean she was smoking or something like that.
"Oh, that's a relief. It's alright, I guess. But right now we can't get another car. Maybe...in a while." She heard her mom getting another spoon out of a drawer and starting to stir again. Sonny let out the biggest sigh of relief and smiled. She got it all out, and every problem was solved.
"That's alright. Im sorry about this. Well, I have to go mom. I'll talk to you later." Sonny pulled the phone away from her ear and heard her mom say goodbye. She hung up and joined Tawni and Chad for the rest of the movie.
SPOV
This was it. My wedding day.
I had never been so anxious for a day in my life.
Ever since I arrived at the studio I had waited for this day.
Actually, since the day I saw Chad. But close enough.
I rushed around the room, frantically looking for my flip flops. I was going to my mom's hairdresser's house to get ready for the wedding. It was only 5:30 in the morning, and Tawni was still sound asleep. She said she wanted to join me and get her hair done too, just not as pretty so she wouldn't compete with me. But then she said , "Sorry if I do turn out prettier than you, because you can't stop perfection."
I grabbed a pillow off my unmade bed and hurled it towards Tawni. It smacked her face and she sat up quickly, looking around the room.
"Tawni, i'm leaving soon for the hairdresser's house. If you want to come with, get ready." I explained, and she quickly hopped out of bed. She rubbed her eyes sleepily and tripped over her slippers, then ambled over to the closet.
I lifted the dust ruffle away from my bed and looked underneath it. There were my flip flops. I wasn't even sure how they got underneath there.
I slipped them on and walked over to the over-the-door mirror. My hair was a mess, but that's what the hairdresser was for. Tawni walked out of the closet in some jeans and a white v-neck.
"Ready to go?" I asked. She yawned in response, then slipped on her own flip flops. I felt bad for her. She just woke up 2 minutes ago and was already out the door. I could never do that.
She handed me her car keys, considering my car was practically blown up to pieces. Well, not really. Maybe im just exaggerating a teeny-tiny bit.
She got in on the passengers and I got in on the driver's side. She was too tired to even drive, and I didn't want to take my chances of getting in a wreck and dying on my wedding day. But I musn't think like that.
"Sonny, how are you going to do your hair?" Tawni asked me, sounding a bit more awake. It was the first thing she had said to me since she woke up. Typical Tawni, only worrying about looks.
"Um, I dont know yet. I guess I'll just curl it. What about you?" I replied, trying to keep my eyes on the road. It was a difficult task though, because it was my wedding day, I was excited, and I had the need to talk to Tawni about all things girly.
"I'll put mine in a bun, then. Buns make my head look big, and I don't want to look better than you, as I said before." She turned on the air conditioner, it was a fairly warm day. It was beautiful out, the sun was shining, and it was the absolute perfect day for a wedding.
"Aww, thank you Tawni. How very thoughful of you." Then I remembered, she had just woken up 5 minutes ago. "You're not sleep talking are you?"
She laughed and playfully punched my shoulder. Okay, she wasn't sleep talking. She punched way harder when she was sleeping. Trust me, I knew.
"Are you excited?" Tawni asked, breaking the silence. Im glad she did, it was getting kind of boring in there.
"Am I excited? That has to be the stupidest question you have ever asked me." I grumbled, and she looked at me, thinking I was serious. "Hell yeah im excited!"
That was the first time I had ever cussed. It felt rebellious.
The Wedding.
"You may now kiss the bride." The priest declared, a smile playing on his face. He got joy out of his job, seeing so many happy couples getting married.
Sonny smiled impatiently at Chad, waiting for him to kiss her. He inched closer, and it felt like hours waiting there. Sonny stepped forward and closed the space between them in a beautiful, passionate kiss.
It wasn't like those short and sweet kisses in most movies, actually, it was quite long.
"Alright already, let's eat!" Grady called from the front row, and they finally broke apart. Sonny laughed at Grady, her spouse-less friend. She felt more mature than them, and it felt good. Powerful.
Chad and Sonny looked at eachother for a while, thinking back to the first time they were in that church. It was a fake marriage, although they already knew their feelings for eachother. This time it was real, and they were forever eachothers.
They stepped down slowly and down the aisle they went, holding hands and kissing here and there. They waved to all the guests, and made their way out. Everybody followed shortly behind.
Then there, in the front of the church, was a brand new lexus. On the window, it read, "Good luck Sonny and Chad. Love, Mom." Sonny screamed, turned around and was greeted by her mom.
"I thought we couldn't get one right now!" Sonny practically shouted in her mom's ear, wrapping her arms around her neck. Her mom laughed at her enthusiasm, but was also hurting inside. Her little girl was all grown up.
"Yeah, well, it's my wedding gift to you." Connie grabbed the keys to the car out of her pocket and tossed them to Chad. Chad smiled, feeling great respect from her. Real men always drove the car, and Connie must have agreed with that too.
"See you at the restraunt." Connie smiled, then walked away to her car with Tawni. Sonny smiled as her mom walked away, she had the best mom in the world. She was growing up, but she would always be her little girl.
"Come on, lets go." Chad smirked, wrapping his arm around her waist and kissing her. He pulled away and scooped her up in his arms, bridal-style.
And no matter how pretty Tawni looked that day, Sonny felt, and was, beautiful.
The wedding dress picture is on my profile, I didn't want to take out the essence of the story by adding the little author's note. Haha. Sorry if this chapter was like, really bad, I dont have like any idea how to prepare for a wedding. I've only been to one and im only fourteen. Haha.
