I own nothing. Like I said, sorry for the wait! I didn't want to end up puking all over my computer. (Not good!)

I HATE You!

They opened the door to their apartment and who was waiting for them? Jake and their Mom. They both looked furious. I suppose it was a strange sight, Sonny in her tiny sundress over top of her tiny blue swimsuit out with a guy who wasn't her boyfriend (yet. or at least I hope.) Everyone was frozen for a few minutes before Sonny finally spoke.

"Soooo… hey mom… Jake… how're things goin'? I'm just gonna, you know, head to my room and get changed."

Sonny smiled awkwardly and started to inch her way towards her room.

"You're not going anywhere young lady," Ms. Munroe said with her lips pursed.

She than looked at me and said, "and neither are you."

Joy somehow managed to slip into her room unnoticed. Whether that was good or bad I was unsure of. For one thing, Joy couldn't be questioned on our day at the beach, which was a good thing because when Joy tries talking under stress to people she's close with like her mom, she usually accidentally says things in a way that makes things worse. She can lie in the face of an acquaintance though. On the down side of things, this made it look like Sonny and I had spent the day alone together, which could end up just as bad as Joy saying something to make things worse. So now that I've confused you enough, I suppose it's safe to say that I don't think it really mattered whether Joy was in here or not.

"What in the world were you doing out with... with… him!?" Jake said gesturing towards me.

"Excuse me? I'm right here you know!?" I said stepping towards him. I didn't like the way he said 'him'. It bugged me for some reason.

"Yeah, I know, but I wish you weren't! Dude, you have about a minute to get away from here and to never come back. Come on Sonny, you need to get changed out of that now," Jake said stepping towards me. Now, I'm not the toughest guy, and Jake was probably stronger than me, but I wasn't going to back down. Who was he to tell Sonny what to do? More importantly, who was he to tell me what to do? Wait. Reverse those. Sonny's more important. I would've walked out of that apartment with a black eye before I let that… creep boss Sonny around like she was a robot without a brain of her own.

"Listen buddy, you can't tell my daughter what to do!"

I was surprised to hear Ms. Munroe say exactly what was on my mind (minus the daughter part. That would be creepy.)

"I'm not telling her what to do!" Jake said. He looked angry. I guess because he was caught bossing around poor Sonny. The weird part was that I expected Sonny to be the first to stand up for herself. The Sonny I know is stubborn, rational, and plain old goofy. That's what I love about her. But now… well, now she seemed shy and if I didn't know any better, scared.

"Sonny, what's wrong?" I asked taking a few steps toward Sonny.

"You know what? EVERYTHING!" She yelled more at Jake than as a response to my question. "I am SICK and TIRED of you PUSHING ME AROUND and treating me like your little lap dog! You act like I'm too stupid to do anything for myself! And you know what? You're abusive too! He THREATENS me! I want a restraining order because this is the LAST STRAW!" Sonny finished dramatically. Then she looked at her mother and softly said, "That reminds me mom, we're out of straws. Can you put them on the shopping list?"

If Sonny hadn't just been yelling about her "boyfriend" being abusive than I would have expected everyone in the room to burst out laughing. The highlight of the rest of that night was me kicking Jake out of Sonny's apartment. I left for my house soon after and fell asleep as soon as I laid in my (huge) bed. That Sunday was boring because I sat in my house all day watching Mackenzie Falls and So Random! reruns. Yes, I watch So Random!, got a problem with that? Anyways, Monday was fun looking back on it but torture to actually live. It all started when I got a call from a certain brunette in the middle of the night…

Hope you liked it! What I would like you to do (if you want to) is to give me a random word with your review. I'll try to fit all random words into the next chapter. The random words will be underlined and have your username in parentheses. Credit to Everafterjunkie who did this in their story The Voice Inside (AWESOME STORY btw!)
