Hey guys! Super sorry for the late update. Just working on a special story. It's finally the reception! If any of you feel offended about the Coke and Pepsi game in here, I'm super sorry. Ooh, and I posted pictures of the reception room on my profile. Just combine the two pictures to imagine the scene. The first shows the dance floor in the middle and the DJ, and the other shows the chairs.

Enjoy!

The wedding reception room was beautiful. The tables were white silk, and the chairs had a blue ribbon on them. I smiled brightly at Chad. He seemed to enjoy the setting as well. There was a big space in the middle for a dance floor, and near the entrance, downstage center of the dance floor, there was a DJ remixing some Black Eyed Peas songs that I think hadn't come out in 2009. At upstage center was a large table for the bridesmaids, groomsmen, Maids of Honor, Best Men, and the newlyweds.

Zora caught up to us after we sat down at a table.

"Mind if Holloway and I sit with you guys? All of our friends are up there, sitting next to Sonny and Chad," Zora smiled. The young man standing stolidly next to her, which I assumed was Holloway, gave us a curt nod. I smiled cheerfully back. Chad being Chad gave no signs of acknowledgement.

"Isn't this amazing? Sonny and Tawni make an amazing wedding planning team!" Zora struck up conversation. I nodded. Chad smiled.

When everyone was seated, a middle-aged man that was about to move into the senior category stood up. The music turned down. Then I realized that he was Dad. I blushed, looking at him. He came all the way from Wisconsin to be here. I did some mental math, and figured out that he was 62 here.

"Thank you everyone for coming to my daughter's, Sonny Monroe's, wedding. Oh, I'm sorry; Sonny Cooper is her name now. I prefer Allison Cooper. Yes. We are here to enjoy Chad and Allison Cooper's reception party, which has a bit of a gaming atmosphere to it. While eating, you may volunteer to participate in the games that my daughter has arranged. She calls herself-what was it again? Oh yes, the Ambassador of Fun. I think many would agree. To wrap it up, a toast for these newlyweds!" he raised his glass. I clinked my glass , that was on the table filled with water, to make a toast.

"Now, enjoy this wonderful evening!" Dad finished, and sat down. The music resumed, and so did the talking.

"I heard all the food is going to be all fancy," Zora bubbled with excitement. "Crème brulee is for dessert; Sonny told me." Just then, some waiters came by and passed out the menus.

"The first course is foie gras," I read, stumbling on the exotic food. "What the heck is that?"

"Its d- actually, I'll keep it a secret until you actually eat it," Chad stopped himself in midsentence. He was going to be no help.

5 minutes later, a waiter brought 4 servings of foie gras and set them on each place for each person. "This looks… appetizing." I smiled. I cut a bit of it out, and put it in my mouth. It tasted okay. "What is it, Chad?"

"That's duck liver," Chad answered smugly.

I choked on the monstrosity of a food. I hacked on it (not a pretty sight to see), and spit it out on the corner of the dish. Well, I tried to. It actually landed right next to the dish, which embarrassed me even more. "D-duck l-l-liver?"

"It's good," Chad took a bite out of his foie gras, and made an 'mmm' sound. I glared at my (gag) future husband in a not-so-lovingly.

"We're going to play 'Coke and Pepsi'," Holloway spoke for the first time. It was only 7 words, but it was still speech.

"Isn't that for bat mitzvahs?" Chad inquired. I agreed, nodding at the statement. Zora nodded in turn.

"Yeah, but Sonny loved the game so much, she wanted it for the wedding. It should start in-" she started, but the music was turned down again. "-0 seconds," Zora finished.

"Hey, what's up? This is DJ Chris with ya this evenin', celebrating Sonny and Chad's awesome wedding! So, some of you have heard of the game 'Coke and Pepsi', right? Well, we're playing it! The rules are simple. You get into a boy-girl partnership. The girls are Cokes, and the boys are Pepsis. Cokes line up on my right side of the stage, and the Pepsis on the left. I'm going to say a drink name, and you have to do the instruction that I've told you. Last one to do so is out," The deejay explained. "Now, listen carefully. I'll tell you 7 different drinks, and what you're supposed to do when I say them. I'll only go over them once."

I decided that I was going to try to win this game, so I leaned forward to listen intently.

"Coke means Cokes run to the Pepsis, and then run back to their side. Pepsi is vice versa. Fanta means they switch sides, then go back to their sides. San Pellegrino means do nothing. Powerade means that Pepsis run over to the Cokes, and the Cokes go on the Pepsis' backs, and the Pepsis piggyback them to the Pepsi side. Pepsis let the Cokes down, and the Cokes go back to their side. Hi-C means both Pepsis and Cokes jump on one foot to the others' side, and go back to your original side. Finally, Monster means crawl to the other side, then come back. Got it?" DJ Chris asked, not expecting an answer, but receiving a chorus of 'yes's. "All right then, get to your positions, players!"

I looked at Chad with begging eyes. "Can I play it with you?" I asked, jutting out my bottom lip. He hesitated.

"I don't want your butt on my back," he answered quite plainly.

"Please?" I begged. "I'll do anything, I promise!" I realized my mistake too late.

He lifted an eyebrow. "Anything?"

Determined to win the game, I replied, "Anything."

He stood up, holding out his hand. "Come on. Let's play and kick these other players' butts. I paid attention to the drinks, I promise." I smiled weakly. I took his hand, and he led us to the stage. We took our positions, along with 14 other pairs, including Tawni and Hayden and Portlyn and her boyfriend,.

After everyone was settled down, DJ Chris yelled, "Pepsi!"

Chad easily outran the other males, even with an uncomfortable (I imagine) tux on. I grinned when he reached my side, and pivoted to go back. I unintentionally frowned when he left.

*Chad's POV*

I, being physically fit, outran all the other wimps in the room.

A skinny little guy lost, and he and his upset partner went back to their seats. Sonny grinned and sent me a thumbs-up, which I returned.

We both did well on the Fanta and the San Pellegrino. San Pellegrino was an exception, because everyone that took off received the buzzer from the DJ.

10 pairs were left when Chris shouted, "Powerade!" I sprinted off to Sonny's side, and lowered down so Sonny could climb on easily. She tentatively wrapped her arms around my neck and her legs around my waist. My whole back burned as she did so. I ran to the other side, with Sonny clutching me like a little monkey. When Sonny slid off, the burning left as easily as it had come. Sonny clip-clopped her heels back to her side. My cheeks were probably red now.

Sonny and I easily beat the competition as the rounds went on, leaving Sonny and me with 2 other pairs: Portlyn and her unfamiliar boyfriend, and Zora and Holloway.

Zora and Holloway went out on Hi-C, where Holloway just wasn't fast enough. Finally, we beat Portlyn and her boyfriend on San Pellegrino, where they both took a step forward.

Sonny beamed with happiness when the DJ announced us the winners and gave her a blue rose ring and gave me a tie. Whoopee.

"Thank you so much, Chad," Sonny told me sincerely when we took our seats. She gave a big hug, grateful. I felt-happy to the extreme, I guess. It was a good feeling.

*Sonny's POV*

"All right, now let's have some toasts from the maids of honor and the best men!" DJ Chris announced while the lobster was being passed out.

Nico Harris stood up. "What's up, everyone?" I stifled a laugh. "I'm here as Chad's Best Man…who would've thought it? I hated that big lug, but he's turned out a'ight. I think it's an honor to be here. Sonny is perfect for him, man. I've never seen a day during their dating span where both of them looked seriously mad at each other. They love each other, and that's what brought them to this day. Awesome wedding; I hope you guys live with each other forevermore. G, the mic is yours," Nico finished, giving the microphone to Grady.

Grady had shot up and slimmed down. What's more, he had a fat ring on his left hand's fourth finger. "Hey, everyone, it's Grady Mitchell and I just want to wish Sonny and Chad a great life together; congrats. I remember the times when Sonny pranked Chad, but that's going back 6 years. I love them both. Congrats!" he hurriedly passed the microphone to the young woman next to him.

Tawni Hart stood up, looking more beautiful than ever. She was model-skinny without looking like she was on a huge diet, and the bridesmaid dress looked great on her. "Hi, everyone," she started. 'I'm Tawni Hart, and I consider myself to be one of Sonny's closest friends. I personally thought that Sonny always had a missing link in her life, and I thought, 'that missing link is Sonny's husband'. When she was off at Mackenzie Falls fighting with Chad, I knew that they were perfect for each other, unlike my other cast members." At this, Nico, Grady and Zora laughed. "So when she told me that they were engaged, I was elated. They were a match made in heaven; they fit each other perfectly. They were the unique couple that fought all the time, but out of love, not hate. Not anymore. So I am so happy that I am Sonny's Maid of Honor at her wedding! Teehee!" This was typical Tawni, saying something girlie at times like this. I smiled.

Lucy was given the microphone. She blushed before standing up. She looked the same, and she had a little bump on her stomach-she was pregnant.

"Hi everyone! Oh my gosh, I just can't believe I'm here. It's an honor to be here. I think it goes for both me and Drake. Okay, I admit that I used to resent this idea of Sonny and Chad dating, but then I had an epiphany that they were perfect for each other." Lucy smiled. Drake used to be my ex-boyfriend in Wisconsin. I shrugged this thought away. "So I go back to Wisconsin after my visit for 5 years. And when I come back, I see that Sonny has a big fat engagement ring on her finger!" Lucy joked. Chortles rippled through the crowd. "Anyhow, I think of Sonny as my best friend, and I'm so happy to see her happy. Thank you." Lucy grinned wildly before sitting down and handing the mic to Nico and Grady, who both stood up.

"All right, may I have your attention? This is a toast to Sonny and Chad. Okay, they've been through a lot. And at first, they were less than thrilled about each other," Nico began.

"But then they began to see what was behind the conceited face and the bubbly smile, and their love began to blossom," Grady continued.

"And finally, they are celebrating their marriage right here," Nico finished.

In unison, Nico and Grady shouted, "A toast to the happy couple!" Everyone clinked glasses once more.

After a while thinking about my experiences at past wedding, I thought about what would happen next. Then it struck me: the first dance.
