Loving's Hard to Do

Summary: "After you left, she gave me this lecture about how I was too young to be in love and that you would probably hurt me." Sonny laughed. "Too bad it's them hurting me."

Sonny woke with a start. She was having the best dream about her and Chad, but in her dream, Chad kept telling her to wake up when in reality, it was her subconscious telling her to wake up. She had overslept by about an hour and had seven minutes to get to the studio.

Sonny flew around her room grabbing clothes and throwing them on. She picked up her car keys and raced outside. She hopped into her car and jammed the keys in the ignition and waited for her car to roar to life. Unfortunately, all Sonny heard was the stutter of her engine.

"Argh! Are you kidding me?" She hit the steering wheel, before trying to start the car up again. Nothing.

Sonny pulled out her cell phone out and dialed Chad's number.

"CDC here, if you were important enough, I'd pick up right now. Unless you're Sonny, then I'm probably filming, but as soon as I get your message, Babe, I'll call you back. Peace!"

"Ugh! Chad! Call me back as soon as you get this message I over slept and my car won't start. And you need to change that message." I quickly hung up and ran back to my house.

I'm having the day from hell,
it was all going so well (before you came)
And you told me you needed space,
With a kiss on the side my face (not again)
And not to mention (the tears I shed)
But I should have kicked your (ass instead)
I need intervention
Attention to stop temptation to scream

'cause baby

Chad sat in Condor Studio's Parking Lot, waiting for Sonny to show up. If she didn't show up soon, she would be late.

He looked down at his phone and saw that he had missed a call, probably during the ten minute day dream of him and Sonny. He typed in his password and listened to his precious girlfriend frantically explain why she wasn't there. Chad was quick to act and raced to Marshall's office.

"Ah, Chad, what a pleasant surprise! Um, where's Sonny. Aren't you two usually joined at the hips?"

"Yeah, well, I just got a message from her and her car won't start, so I'm going to pick her up, so she'll be a little late." Chad rushed out.

"Oh, of course no problem. Be careful."

"Thanks Marshall."

Chad sprinted back to his car and drove to Sonny's house.


Everything is F'ed up straight from the heart
Tell me what do you do, when it all falls apart
Gotta pick myself up where do I start
'cause I can't turn to you when it all falls apart
No

Meanwhile, Sonny was now digging through her purse in search of her keys, even though she knew where they were…her car, which is locked. She buzzed her neighbor's apartment in hopes that maybe they would let her up. No such luck. Sonny pulled her lightweight jacket tighter around her shoulders.

The wind was beginning to pick up and get colder, after all it was November. She sat on the bench outside of her apartment building and tried calling Chad's second cell phone.

"Hello?"

"Chad I need—"

"This is what you would hear if you actually had the number to the phone I actually answered. So you know…leave a message, although it won't matter, I never check this number. Ciao."

Sonny slammed the phone shut and then reopened it and pushed one.

"CDC here."

Don't know where I parked my car
Don't know who my real friends are (anymore)
I put my faith in you
What a stupid thing to do (when it rains it pours)
And not to mention (I drank too much)
I'm feeling hung over (and out of touch)
I need intervention
Attention to stop temptation to scream

'cause baby

"Chad!" Sonny exclaimed.

"The one and only sweet cheeks, were you in need of a ride?"

Sonny looked up to see Chad pulling up to the curb. Sonny hung up and climbed into his car. She leaned over and kissed Chad's cheek.

"Sonny, you're freezing." Chad reached over to turn the heat up.

Everything is F'ed up straight from the heart
Tell me what do you do, when it all falls apart
Gotta pick myself up where do I start
'cause I can't turn to you when it all Falls apart
Gotta pick myself up 'cause things are messed up.

"Thanks, Chad." Sonny said, kissing him deeply. Chad pulled onto the road

"No problem," Chad said. "Bad morning?"

"The worst, more like the morning from hell." Sonny said, chuckling.

Sorry, it's been so long, school started and the usual excuses. Tell me if it sucks or not. Sam
