(A/N) Rosie: I am really sorry for the no update! Exams and test were taking up all of my times, and if I wasn't studying, I was sleeping, so i was really busy...Another thing is becasue I had a huge writer's block! So BIG credit to Mari, who wrote most of this chapter! (Mari- you sleep wayyy to much, it isnt healthy you know!)

Hey guys! It's Mari, just so you know! Rosie was having a major writer's block, and she noticed that angst-y scenes aren't really her thing (Sonny's brother just died, so angst is necessary), so she asked me if I could write the hardest part! I spent time on it trying to see if it would meet your expectations, so please don't flame! This might be a little depressing, but not too much, just enough to show what Sonny is going through. The rest won't be angst-y, I tried to add humor, but sometimes my humor can be different, so sorry about that... Sorry about the late update though, I have been really busy, I know, typical excuse blah blah, but I finally got some inspiration from a song that fits this chapter so well! Well, most of the parts do at least, LOL! If you have any suggestions, leave it in a review or PM, and we'll see what we can do, m'kay? So, this chapter is going to change things for a bit, because life isn't a happy-go-getting thing, there are alot of bumps until happiness, so remember that...OK, this mysterious thing is starting to freak me out, so moving on! A nice, long chapter for you guys because you are AWESOME! Seriously though, how 'bout more reviews? And if Selena may seem different, just know that its because I tried to make her seem more like Alex, from her show, so it could mold to fit the story!

Anyways, Read and Review please! I would love to know your reactions, to see if I need to improve anything!

Disclaimer: (Why does Rosie always forget this thing?) *Glares at a certain someone* Okay, so we don't own Sonny with a Chance or any of it's characters, if we did, we wouldn't be on fanfiction, well that's a lie, we love it too much, LOL. We do, however, own this plot! :)

I cried out with no reply
And I can't feel You by my side
So I'll hold tight to what I know
You're here and I'm never alone

Never alone- BarlowGirl

(Listen to this for the first part (Sonny's POV), it adds to the mood)

Sonny POV:

After everybody exited the room for a private talk, I sat shocked. Chad and I had kissed, and I didn't do anything about it! Ugh, I was so stupid! But wait, it wasn't my fault, that jerk took advantage of me! That is just wrong, when someone looses a family member, yeah sure you can comfort them, but not let your lust take over! What the hell is wrong with him. I just lost my brother, I wasn't in the right mind to do anything! What was I? A common plaything that gets played with because I have no feelings? But what is this foreign feeling on my lips? Is it an itch? Is that normal after you first kiss? Yeah, that jerk stole my first kiss, talk about romantic.

With my anger, I forgot the main reason of all of this, N-Nat-, he wasn't here anymore. He "died". I can't believe that, I won't, I refuse to believe he is gone. He promised to come home, to see me! He has to be alive! If I call, he will answer, he said he'd always be there for me! With my denial I took various pieces of small furniture and chucked it across the room. Does everybody think this is funny, because I'm not laughing!

"No, you can't be gone! We were supposed to go to the fair in Wisconsin Square! Everybody is lying, you didn't leave, you are going to call any minute and say it was all a joke! Come back!" My rapid hands discovered a porcelain vase, which was a gift from Chad's aunt, it wasn't anything special, she just wanted to buy it because she could. I let it slip out of my hands lamely and listened in grim satisfaction as I heard the screeching CRASH. My body collapsed right onto the broken glass, sobs erupting from my chest. Jagged shards pierced my exposed skin, biting into the ivory skin, leaving a trail of the thick, burgundy substance. A hysterical giggle shot out of my mouth, and another, and another, soon I was maliciously laughing.

Portlyn, Chloe, and Selena burst into the room with alarmed expressions while shooting out inquiries, "Sonny, what happened? We heard a bunch of thumps and a gigantic crash!"

"Aha! Crash, boom, thump! Hehe, that was just moi guys, you see, anger and sadness does just wonders to people, don't you think? Plus look at the pretty colour on my legs, isn't it spectaculer?" My giggles didn't stop, and that wasn't something they were expecting. Their eyes zoomed to my legs as I spoke. Selena looked like a gapping fish, Chloe backed into the wall, her innocent eyes shielding themselves from the horrific sight, and Portlyn, well, she was shaking all over.

"Sonny, what did you do to yourself? You're not like this, what happened to Sonny Sonshine? Y-your legs are bleeding for heaven's sake, and you're just giggling about how 'pretty' it is? Is this about your brother? If it is, Sonny, he wouldn't want you to be like this," Ah, the oh-so-compassionate voice of Portlyn. Her voice quivered just like her body.

"Oh? Is that so? How would you know? He hasn't told you yet! How about we call him, or better yet, how about a visit to prove he is still here and you are playing a cruel joke!" I quickly stood up but my legs couldn't support me. It was all too much, the blood loss, Nate, he was alive, he had to be! I just miss him, I want him to put his arms around me and hum the lullaby mom used to sing to us when we were little. Then we would eat cookies while watching Aladdin, our favourite movie. I wanted my brother come back. Nate, where are you?

My knees wobbled and I collapsed to the floor with a thud. Stars clouded my vision and my head swam. I didn't remember anything else since all the concerned voices were slurred together. Then the blurry figures of everybody was replaced with black.

Portlyn's POV

"She fell asleep? Just like that? Damn, that girl has mood swings!" Came Chloe's incredulous oh-so-smart reply. Sometimes I wonder why I was thought as the stupid one!

I screeched my own reply, "What the hell is wrong with you? She isn't sleeping! She fainted! We have to take her to the hospital, I mean, look at her leg! There is a lot of glass stuck in there!" How did Sonny not notice the pain?

I guess Selena, who was quiet the who time, finally came to her senses because she screamed so loud that I think she woke up the dead. If only it woke up Sonny, it would ease our worries. Sonny's face was sickly pale and her lips were turning blue. How much blood is she losing?

"Why are you screaming Russo? Gosh- what happened here?" Oh, so now he shows up!

"We'll explain later, but now we need you to be her knight in shining armor and carry her to your car so we can take her to the hospital," I hurriedly explained. Chad's eyes zeroed in on the broken vase and glass that had blood, Sonny's blood, smeared on it. He nodded and gingerly enveloped Sonny into his arms and walked behind us as we jogged to the sleek, black BMW. He put her in the back seat and slid in himself with her head on his lap and her feet on Selena's lap.

"Wha-why do I have to get her feet? You take them lover boy, you probably would even be honored with them! Plus, I'm wearing white, dimwit!" I had to agree with Selena, as worried as I was for Sonny, getting your clothes stained with blood is a lot of work to get out. Plus, Chad is the one who likes her, so he should be happy he at least gets to touch her.

He mimicked Selena, which earned him a smack across the head, and shifted Sonny. "Happy now, princess?"

"Very," Selena sneered. Oh gosh, not them too! Sonny and Chad were bad enough!

I started the car and it hummed to life. Damn, I had to get one of these babies for my next birthday! My foot slammed into the petal and the tires squealed as I sped away from the garage. What can I say? I'm a speed devil, it's exhilarating, and plus, the faster we got there, the better.

"Hey, Portlyn, watch it! This car costs a fortune!" Ugh, obviously Chad is only fussing over his car instead of Sonny. Boys and their toys.

"We're gonna dieeeeeeeee before we even reach the hospital!" Chloe wailed lamely. Wow, she even started praying. Over exaggerating much? I was only going 150 km/h. Okay, maybe that is a lot. At least the police here are lazy!

"Oh hush, it's better than letting Sonny get worse. Plus, Chad, do you want Sonny to get there faster?" Selena shouted over the two.

Chad's face abruptly took a blank expression. What happened? I guess that triggered his concern bone. Chloe also quieted down, but she did whimper when I would take a sharp turn. The silence was so thick you could cut through it with a knife.

When we reached the hospital, Chad picked Sonny up and ran inside with us following. We checked her in and the doctors carried her away in a stretcher immediately. They obviously recognized us since usually people would have to wait for hours. I guess Sonny's condition was pretty bad.

We all took a seat and waited anxiously.

It was 12:00 a.m. and we still hadn't got an update on Sonny. It was the most quietest wait ever. No paparazzi, and no fans, surprisingly. Mostly everybody was either home or sleeping except for an elderly couple who were holding each other's hand while whispering to each other. Awe, how sweet. They seem so in love! I hope Sonny and Chad come to their senses soon, then maybe one day that might be them, old and tenderly in love. As you can tell, I'm a hopeless romantic.

Groaning, I let my eyes wander at every body's faces. Chloe was biting her nails, a nervous habit of hers. Oh, she was going to get an earful from her stylist again. They had to re-do her nails again. Selena was in the restroom doing God knows what, but the expression I found most strange was Chad's. He wasn't doing anything, just moping on the chair, black sunglasses on his eyes, preventing me from seeing whether he was sleeping or not. Wait, why was he even wearing sunglasses inside? Oh, right, disguise. If I was him, I would demand a report of how she was every hour since he loves her. Heck, I was even doing that now!

Looking around the room, a nurse with a odd look on her face, caught my attention. The look on her face, made me have a uneasy feeling, as if she was smirking. with one last look at us, the nurse disappeared around the corner. Before she did, oddly enough, I saw a flash of what looked like a silver cell phone.

I shook that thought away, I was just being paranoid. Maybe me being in the hospital is making me go crazy.

Chloe nudged my arm,"Portlyn, is Chad dead?"

I looked at her with a weird expression, "Chloe, what are you on?" I inquired her. She is my best friend, but I'm starting to doubt those "lollipops" she's been obsessed with lately.

She stood up and went to Chad's chair. What was she doing? Then, she lifted a finger and poked his arm. What the hell? Okay, no more lollipops, if that's what they were, for her!

She did it again. Poke, poke, poke, po-

"Get. Your. Filthy. Hands. Off. ME!" Chad roared. Well, that answered her question!

Chloe sqeaked in fright and jumped ten feet in the air.

"Mr. Cooper?" Our heads shot up at the name, and we immediately gathered around the doctor. " is doing much better. She needed seven stiches and had to get blood tranfusion. We will keep her overnight just incase," with a quick nod, the doctor turned and left.

We jsut froze. None of us making a move to visit Sonny.

Clacking of heels against the wooden floor, made us all turn around, only to meet Selena, who was making her way towards us.

She gave us a weird look,"Why are you all just standing there looking awkward?"

Chloe was the first to break this silence,"Sonny is awake, she needed seven stitches, and needs to stay here overnight, other then that, she is fine. Her room number is 207"

"Then why are you all jsut standing there? Shouldn't you go and see her? God, you guys are such idiots!" With that, she made her way to Sonny, her annoying heels clacking on the hard wooden floor.

Once again, we just stood there, in a awkward silence, none of us making a move.

Chad stood up, catching both mine and Chloe's attention, and without another word, made his way out of the hospital. I looked at Chloe, who had a look of confusion written all over her face. I just shrug.

We were about to make our way to see Sonny, when we heard the, as scary as it is, manliest scream come from a tween girl. Our heads snapped towards the direction of the scream. We saw a disheveled Chad stumble our way with a frantic look on his face.

He pushed his back to the door, while breathing heavily. Looking around him, I noticed that there were paparazzi's all around. "Looks like were stuck here for a while eh?"

"We have to run before they decide to camera molest us! Run for your lifeeeee!" Chloe screeched and ran around in circles while throwing her hands up in exaggeration.

Roling my eyes at her exaggeration, I made my way to Chad, who was still panting hard.

"You still considering to walk away, lover boy?"

"What are you laughing at? Was this yor plan to get back at me for kissing Sonny? Are you jealous that I might have a love life and you don't?" He didn't just go there!

"Listen to yourself! Do you think I would do that? My best friend is lying in a hospital bed! The last thing I want is for any trouble. As for a love life, at least I know when it is time to present my feelings and not force myself on somebody! Now get your act together before you see Sonny," I snapped and spun on my heel before walking to Sonny's room. Chloe followed closely.

Sonny's POV

Tears streamed down my cheek as I looked at the last person Nate was saying bye to. Not wanting Nate to see me crying, I quickly used the back of my hands to wipe them away furiously. When Nate fianlly came to me, he gave me a small smile.

"Sonny, you know this isn't a goodbye, it's a 'see ya later buddy!'" A giggle escaped my mouth and I couldn't help but smile along with him. Nate, my older brother, was going to Afghanistan to join the war. It was his dream ever since he was a kid.

I guess he was right, shocker, I know. He pinkie promised to come back home, for me. We were going to see each other, one way or another. Nate always kept his promise, always.

"I know." I murmured timidly.

"Then stop those tears, soon there is going to be a salty pool in the airport because of you! I'm not going to clean it up!" Nate smirked.

"That's because you don't clean up anything!" He opened his arms, which I gladly accepted. I wrapped my arms around his body, and rested my head on his shoulder, savoring the last minutes with him. Soon we broke apart, and with one last sad smile, Nate made his way through the gate that would soon lead him to the plane. Then and there, at the back of my mind, there was a hint of doubt.

End of Flashback

The sob that I was trying to hold in broke out and I silently cried. Sobs ripped out from my chest and my throat burned with choked back screams. Those were my last minutes with Nate. I knew there was no way to see him again. I told him it was dangerous! He was so young, he could have lived and gone to school! That way he wouldn't be...dead. I wanted to accept that he was gone, but I couldn't. A part of me couldn't let go of him, the part that was still a little girl that wanted her big brother to always be there and protect her.

I looked at my leg, and felt ashamed. My leg was no longer the shiny smooth leg I had less then five hours ago. It now had stitches and gauze, a reminder of my episode. I gingerly wiped away my tears with a shaky hand and took a deep breath. Looking around the room, I felt like a prisoner. I always hated hospitals. The aura of death always lingered, to remind us what happened everyday. It's stench wanted to make me gag. Medicine and chemicals. The white, it was everywhere. I wanted to go insane. White walls, bed frame, pillow, blanket and sheets. White, white, WHITE!

A knock on the door broke me away from my thoughts. Selena was leaning on the door, smiling softly at me.

"Can I come in?" I nodded in reply.

"So, how do you feel?" Selena asked as she made her way to the chair right beside my bed.

"Oh you know, just peachy!" Okay, so maybe I was still bitter, but can you blame me? Selena nodded, understanding what I meant. With the news of my brother, the glass accident, and the part where Chad and I were kissing. I shuddered just thinking about took advantage of me...right? Of course, I wasn't thinking clearly, I was upset about the fact that my brother was gone, and Chad used that as his advance to kiss me. So it was comfort. Yeah, comfort. Yet, my lips had other ideas. Instead of being furious like my brain was, it kept on tingling at the thought of his soft pink lips brushing against mine, creating a spark. My heart fluttered.

After that, it was just awkward. None of us made a move to speak.

"Where are Chloe and Portlyn?" I asked awkwardly while fidgeting. I didn't mention him. He probably didn't even care.

"Oh don't worry about them, they're outside, I think" Selena shrugged and I nodded.

"So, uh, hospital food sucks, eh?" Smooth, Sonny. I mentally kicked myself.

"Um... I guess. I wouldn't really know, considering I never needed to be in the hospital. I mean, how could this little looker ever be seen wearing that ugly cloth!" Selena chuckled, indicating the hideous hospital gown. Even though she tried to be funny, I could tell that this moment was really awkward for her. She wasn't the type to comfort or handle situations like this.

Knock. Knock. Knock.

Looking towards the direction of the door, I saw Portlyn who was beside a bouncing Chloe. What the heck was up with her? She has been acting...odd lately.

Suddenly, Chloe launched herself at me while squealing. She crushed me and my lungs in a bear hug. How could a petite girl like herself posses that much energy and strength?

"Sonny! Your alright! Ohmigosh, ohmigosh, ohmigosh! You're alive! We should celebrate! We should have a chocolate bunny, a really big one, and maybe we could all wear duckie suits, then I could be the entertainment! How does belly dancing sound to you?" Chloe continued to ramble, until she was pulled off from me by Portlyn and Selena. I smiled gratefully at them.

"Sorry about that, Sonny. I have no idea what type of "lollipops" Chloe has been eating," Portlyn giggled at the furious glare Chloe was giving. Me and Selena released our own little laughs that soon erupted to full out laughing when Chloe huffed and turned around just to run smack into the wall.

"Holy mother of-" Ouch, my sides are starting to hurt!

After that, we all chatted normally, breaking the ice that had formed between us.

Soon the time came to the end. Selena stated that she should get home before her mom calls the cops for her and Chloe agreed, something about chocolate cake waiting for her. Lucky... Portlyn, however, offered to stay. My heart swelled at the generous offer. I declined.

"Are you sure Sonny? I wouldn't mind."

"Portlyn for the last time, I will be fine! You should go and sleep in a warm and comfy bed. A shower might help too, you freak!" I jokingly wrinkled my nose at her.

With one last hug, all three girls made there way out of the hospital. I looked around the room, wandering what to do, my eyes settled on the TV. I skipped through the channels, my smile widened when I saw what show was on. I knew I shouldn't watch this show, but my Mackenzie Fall fan side came out, and soon my eyes were glued to the TV. What can I say? I'm a sucker for a little bit of teen angst and drama once in a while!

"Oh c'mon MacKenzie! Be a man, don't you realize she loves you?" I murmured to the TV, caught up in a trance.

Knock. Knock. Knock.

I choose to ignore the door.

Knock knock knock

I mumbled a come in, but didn't bother to look at who was at the door, my eyes were still glued to the star-crossed lovers in the show.

"Sonny," A voice like honey murmured. My head snapped towards the voice I knew too well. There, in the doorway, was none other than,

Chad. Dylan. Cooper.

So, hated it? Loved it? Tell us your opinion in you review ;) You know you want toooo!
