Chad Chad Chaddy Chad Chad, Chad Chad Chaddy Chad Chad...dammit. -_- This is why I shouldn't listen to repetitive music (i.e. justin bieber...if i hear one of his song's i'll be humming it all day. ugh!)


Sonny's POV

"Look who decided to show up," Nico joked when Grady walked into the room with his arm around Zora. "You haven't been to one of our weekly dinners in ages."

"Sorry about what happened with Keira," I said, giving him a hug.

"It's for the best," he said. "I wasn't really ready to be a father anyway." I turned to Zora.

"How are you hodling up?" I asked. "I know you weren't in love with Justin or anything, but it still must suck knowing he cheated on you."

"To be honest," she began. "I've barely thought about it. I've been way to happy about getting Grady back."

"Well, I'm glad somebody got their happily ever after," I said, sounding more bitter than I meant to. Zora glanced over at Chad, seeming to know what I meant, and gave me a hug.

"I'm sorry, Sonny," she whispered. "You'll find someone someday."

"It's been seven years," I reminded her. "I haven't been on a date in seven God damn years. It's never going to get better. I'm never going to get over him."

"Yes you will," Zora assured me. "You just need to make more of an effort to be friends with him." I nodded. It was going to be tough, but I didn't see any other way. I had to get over him. I had to accept that we had our own lives now and our own families. There was Chad and there was Sonny, but there was no Chad and Sonny anymore.

"Hey, Chad," I said, walking up to him.

"Hi," he greeted me. "Listen, I'm sorry about being an arrogant jerk the other day."

"I'm sorry I..." I began. I lowered my voice. "kissed you." I wasn't sure if Tawni knew and it was probably better if she didn't find out by overhearing my conversation with Chad.

"It's fine," Chad answered. "Friends?"

"Friends," I agreed. We shared an awkward hug and exchanged forced smiles.

"Would you mind going into the study and getting me some candles?" Chad asked me. "They should be in one of the drawers in the cabinet near the door."

"Sure," I said, leaving the kitchen and walking down the hallway towards the study. I opened all the cabinet drawers, but couldn't find any candles.

"Maybe there's some in the desk," I said to myself, jiggling the top drawer open. Receipts, bills, bills...wait. What was this?

"What the hell?" I murmered, lifting up a piece of paper, covered in my cursive.

He was really upset when I told him. I thought he was going to break down and cry right then and there, but instead he just broke it off with me. I know it was my choice, but it still hurt. What hurt more was knowing that I'd hurt him. After I told him, I thought about just saying "Phych" and then telling him the baby was his, but I couldn't do that. This is for the best. I had to lie and say the baby wasn't his to protect him. I couldn't ruin his life like I've ruined my own. It broke my heart, but I had to do it. It was the right thing to do.

To Be Continued


If you did not see that coming, never become a detective please. How many of you picked up on the hints I dropped? Hint #1 was SUPER obvious and that's just the fact that Ellie has Chad's eyes...but I kinda tried to trick you into thinking Chad wasn't the father by making it seem like I'd just made her eyes blue to trick you into thinking he WAS the father until you found out that he wasn't...but then you found out that he was...wow this story is actually really complex. Hint #2 was more subtle...nobody actually said anything about it, so I'm not sure if anybody even noticed it. If you know what it is, let me know in a review. First person to get it gets the last chapter dedicated to them. BTW, I'm not quite sure about whether or not to post part III right away...I might wait awhile and work on getting the third part of my other SWAC series done and posted first. I feel kind of bad for like abandoning them or something. :(

As for the final chapter, I will try to post it tomorrow? Probably not today, but I might if i get really bored.

PEACE OUT SUCKAHS! i WANT LOTS OF REVIEWS! THAT MEANS YOU ALL REVIEW!

Oh and yea, the song's speak now by taylor swift.
