Hello, everyone. I'm back and THRILLED. Drum roll please.... I've REACHED 100. I know it seems a little over dramatic, but I've been writing fanfics for a good two years now and I never thought the day would come. I want you all to know that you have helped me to realize my dreams and to understand that I shouldn't quite give up writing. Anyway, I was going to give a reward to the 100th review. But then I thought, wait a minute, that reviewer wasn't the only person who helped me reach 100. I couldn't do it without all of you. As a reward I'm allowing everyone who has reviewed at least five chapters to send in a request. Anything you want to see happen in the story will happen, all you have to do is write the word Channy and I'll be sure to add it into the story. But be warned, once you've submitted your review, there is no going back. I won't take the idea out of the story and you will not be allowed to submit another one. Of course, I'll still be open to suggestions, but nothing will be certain. With that in mind, please continue reading and reviewing, and think about what you would like to see in the story. Thanks again everyone. I hope you enjoy.

Chapter 16: Sonny With a Chance of Revenge

I only saw Chad one more time that day. As I was walking over to practice the only sketch I had been included in, I passed him in the hallway. He didn't even look my way, and I tried my best at pretending I hadn't seen him.

Skylar seemed to be having loads of fun. He had explored the whole studio, first with Tawni, then Nico and Grady, and finally with Zora. Although all of his excitement had gone into meeting Tawni Hart, he seemed far more interested with Zora, probably because of their ages. Of course, Tawni didn't like thinking that somebody preferred Zora to her, so she began feeling a strong distaste for Skylar. Just great.

Even through all of this, my mind stayed focused on one person; Chad. I didn't understand how one self-centered person could possibly tear my world into so many pieces. I told myself that he wasn't worth it, that I didn't need him, but I knew that I was wrong. He was worth it, I did need him. Of course, I had no way to get him back. He was gone for good.

"CUT!" Marshall screamed, calling the cast to order for the third time since we had started rehearsing ten minutes prior.

"What now, Marshall?" Tawni asked. "I put the eyeliner away!"

"Not you," Marshall said. "Sonny, you're supposed to be a camp director. What's with the long face?"

'Maybe it's because I lost my boyfriend and gained an enemy all in one day,' I thought to myself. "Nothing," I replied. "Sorry, Marshall."

"Alright, everybody," Marshall said. "Can we please do this right?"

Once we finished rehearsal, Skylar ran up to me and began relaying his day. i listened, trying to drown out my thoughts with the words flowing from his mouth.

"So I take it you had fun?" I said once he was finished.

Skylar nodded vigorously. "I can't believe you've been here while I've been stuck in New York. This place is awesome!"

"Just don't tell Silvia that," I mumbled.

I managed to steer clear of Crystal. I knew that if I saw her I would only burst into tears. Of course, that didn't mean that my mind didn't constantly stray to images of her and Chad, smiling and happy together.

I sat in my dressing room, simply waiting for the day to end, when Tawni came screaming into the room. "Sonny, you'll never believe this!"

"No offense, Tawni, but I really don't care about what happened to your lipstick," I replied.

"It's not that, although they really shouldn't have made it lighter. Anyway, it's about Chad and Crystal," Tawni began, my eyes flashing to her as much as I wanted to pretend that it didn't bother me. "They've been fighting like crazy. Apparently she's getting on his last nerve, which means they'll probably break up."

If only he'd be willing to take me back, I thought. "I don't see what the big deal is..."

"Isn't that what you wanted?" Tawni asked.

"No, I wanted Chad to stop hating me," I mumbled.

"This is your chance to get him back."

I sighed. It was a bit of a long shot, but I was desperate enough to take it.

Chad's P.O.V.

I couldn't take another minute of Crystal's annoying jabber. If I had to give her another foot massage, I would probably puke. I didn't want to talk about her hair or her clothes, or her new shoes. Most importantly, I didn't want to think about Sonny. I didn't want to admit to myself how much I missed her. I wasn't going to allow her to have that kind of power over me.

"Hey, isn't this a little over dramatic?" Caleb Winters, a newly hired actor for McKenzie Falls, asked.

"It's a drama show!" I screamed. "What do you expect?"

"Jeez, chill, will you?" he said. "Did your girlfriend break up with you or something?"

"I wish," I muttered under my breath, wanting nothing more than to go to So Random and beg Sonny to take me back. Of course, I knew I couldn't do that. I couldn't give in to her.

Sonny's P.O.V.

I sat down at our usual table in the cafeteria and wished that my friends weren't too busy to sit with me. I picked at the lettuce in my sandwich, my mind straying to all different places.

"Hi, Sonny," Skylar said, sitting down across from me.

"Where have you been?" I asked, slightly mad at myself for not truly being interested.

"Just hanging out," he replied. He kicked his legs up onto the table, but instead of scolding him like I knew I should have, I simply ignored it. "Wow, why so gloomy?" he asked.

"It's nothing," I mumbled, not wanting to drag him down with me.

"So, your just like a naturally depressing person?" Skylar asked.

"Hardly," I snapped. "Just been having a bad week."

"Can I help?" he asked.

I looked at him to find that he looked completely sincere, something that I hadn't been expecting. I must look really upset if Skylar was offering to help cheer me up. "It's okay. Go have fun. I'll be fine by myself."

"Okay," Skylar said, getting out of his seat, "but if you need anything, I'd be happy to help. After all, I wouldn't be having this much fun if you hadn't rescued me from New York."

I smiled slightly at him, but I knew that it wasn't very convincing. Within a few moments, he was gone.

I sat, staring at my plate, returning my attention to my uneaten sandwich. "Is this seat taken?" a male voice asked. I shook my head out of reflex although the last thing I wanted was company from an absolute stranger.

"You know," he started again, "you're far too pretty to be sitting here by yourself."

I looked up to find a boy with light brown hair and dark brown eyes. "How many times have you used that come-on recently?" I asked, once again uninterested in wherever the conversation may be going.

"None, actually, so you can feel pretty special," he replied.

"One of a kind," I mumbled.

"So, what show are you on?" he asked.

"So Random," I replied, not even taking enough notice to be insulted.

"Cool, can't be nearly as dreadful as McKenzie Falls," he said.

"You're on McKenzie Falls?" I asked, my head shooting up.

"Yup, new guy," he explained, holding out his hand. "I'm Caleb Winters."

"Sonny Munroe," I said, grabbing his hand and giving it a slight shake. He smiled.

"Been here long, Miss Munroe?" he asked, his voice sounding formal.

"Not too long," I replied. "I moved here from Wisconsin a couple of months ago."

"Wow, must have been a big change. I mean, in lifestyle," Caleb observed.

"Pretty much, yeah," I replied.

"I'm actually from San Francisco so it wasn't a very big adjustment," Caleb explained. "And you really look like you want to be alone right now. I guess it would be too much to ask for you to share your problems with a complete stranger."

"Probably," I mumbled, partly hoping he would leave, partly hoping he would badger me until I spilled my life story to him.

"Well, I guess I'll leave you alone, but if you want to talk, well, you know where to find me..." He said, leaving the sentence open.

"Yeah." I couldn't hold back my smile as he left.
