Chad was on the phone yelling stern words to a security guard squad.
"I don't care about the time or anything like that. Conroy could have given her a broken neck or something like that...no don't give me all that garbage, Conroy is a real insensitive jerk because he got dumped and according to him he is not the dumpee he is the dumper.... look I don't care who you send I better have six body guards by tomorrow or the dumper will end up in the dumpster by the time I'm finished with!"
He hung up.
"We're getting body guards tomorrow 7:30am-10:30pm." He looked at her with gentle eyes, "If he lays a finger on you Sonny I'll tear his hands off."
Sonny smiled, "Are my ears deceiving me or is The Chad Dylan Cooper actually caring for someone besides himself...and his character."
Chad's face turned cerisehe dropped his cobalt eyes to the floor. "Chad Dylan Cooper doesn't care for other people." He locked his eyes to hers, "But, Chad does." He smiled.
She smiled back and stood up next to him, "I'm glad to hear that." She wrapped her arms around his waist, embracing him. Chad returned the hug and lifted her chin with one finger.
"Can I tell you something?"
"Sure,"
"I...I...I L..."
The door burst open, James barged in but stopped suddenly when he noticed Sonny and Chad enfolded in each other's arms. "Am I interrupting something?" He said darkly with a look of hatred in his eye.
"Security!" Chad yelled.
James scowled, "I will get you back Munroe," He came up to her and took out a knife, slid the blade across his palm as he did and gripped her neck."On this blood I swear it."
"Get your filthy hand off her!" Chad spat wrenching Sonny from his grip. "Security!"
James glared at them both and ran out of the Mackenzie Falls set.
Tears escaped from Sonny's eyes. "He's insane." She whispered.
She buried her face into Chad's chest and sobbed uncontrollably. Chad caressed her hair and laid his cheek on her crown not caring about the tear and blood stains on his shirt.
He felt tears prickling in the back of his eyes that threatened to fall. He knew one thing he had to stay strong for Sonny. Because he loved her, he loved her much more than he loved himself. And character.
It had been forty eight hours since the insane ordeal.
Only two body guards were sent but the stars decided it was better than nothing.
Sonny couldn't have been more grateful to Chad.
James hadn't come within 20 feet of her when he noticed her body guard made her feel so much safer than before.
On her lunch break she ignored her disgusting lunch that she was sure move when she wasn't looking at it, just making her forefinger move in circles. She knew James was watching her from the Falls' table but she didn't dare turn to make eye contact.
Tawni was digging her knife into the table clenching her teeth at the sight of her ex.
"It was his fault I wore polyester pants!" She growled sounding like Zora when Dakota broke Gnommey the garden gnome.
"just be glad he's not after you." Sonny said bitterly.
Tawni flared her teeth.
The knife was half way into the table.
"Tawni, don't let the table suffer."
Tawni grunted and slouched in her seat, her blue eyes turning to slits.
Zora popped out of nowhere and sat down, hissing when she saw James Conroy looking towards their table.
"Evil." She sneered very much like when she laid eyes on Mr Condor's nine year old daughter.
"Yes Zora, evil." Sonny said smiling at the bizarre eleven year old girl.
"Hey, Sonny I..."
Zora growled and started barking like a dog as Chad came over to their table.
"Zora! Down girl down! Chad's a good guy when you-know-who is here. Got it?"
Zora went silent.
Chad looked a little startled, "Sonny I really need t talk to you, in private."
Sonny got up from her chair and followed him into the corridors whilst noticing James was missing from the table that made her spine feel like ice within seconds.
Chad led her to his dressing room and shut the door.
"Sonny, I'm sorry to say this but we can't keep our body guards with us for any longer. Somebody else needs them more than we do."
Sonny's icy spine felt like it had icicles stabbing it.
"I understand." She whispered.
"I talked to Portlyn and she said she would keep him distracted as much as she could on our breaks. We can trust her. Does Conroy know where you live?"
Sonny shook her head while Chad sighed with relief.
"How's Tawni taking it?"
"Didn't you notice the knife half way into the table?"
