DISCLAIMER: I own no rights to Sonny with a Chance or the Darren Shan Sega/Cirque du Freak.

A/N: Hey there guys, I'm not sure weather this will work or not so please review ad tell me if it does work and if not I will take it down and try something else.

SUMMARY: Chad finds some tickets for a circus that he takes Sonny to. Realising it isn't a circus and that it is actually a freak show, they go anyway and come face to face with the creatures of the night. Is love enough to keep Chad away from temptation?

TITLE: If love Isn't Enough For Us

Chapter 3- He couldn't stop the pain

"Sonny what are you talking about?" He asked Sonny as a flood of worry came over him and he took Sonny in his arms.

"I…I'm being stupid. It's nothing just…" She trailed off and walked away as Chad watched, panicked about his girlfriend. Later that day, he met up with her and she was no different. Still entranced with thoughts of vampires and great battles with the other side, still wondering the thoughts of a boy, a Darren Shan, an amazing boy who fought for the truth, who was taken away from his family. "Chad!" She exclaimed as Chad wrestled her to the wall.

"Alright Sonny, what's up I wanna know and I wanna know now." She sighed as he released her and she fell to the floor. "I'm sorry but… what is up with you? I've been thinking and all this talk of a Darren Shan, I'm beginning to think that you want him more than me." She slid her arms around his neck and pressed her lips firmly against his.

"You know that would never happen." He loosened her grip and began to walk away before shouting over his shoulder.

"Do I?" Her heart fell as she realised that she was slowly losing Chad. He was slipping away, fading away from her and there was nothing she could do…was there? Her whole world had plunged to an unfortunate end and now she wanted it all to end. She wanted to watch everything fade to black with one fatal move. Just a split second and all would be over. All of her nightmares, all of her dreads, everything, gone. No more pain, no more worries, just bliss in her perfect little world with Chad. He hated her now and didn't believe that she truly loved him.

That Following Night…

A scream came from Sonny's room as Chad pounded on the door. "Sonny let me in!" He screeched as the door broke forward and collided with the floor. She was lying in her room on the bed, screaming for dear life. "Sonny, Son' come on wake up." He shook her as she began to stir and her eyes popped open. She was panting heavily and calling random names.

"Chad, Chad help me, I don't know what's happening." He pulled her to his chest as she cried uncontrollably in his arms. "Help me please." He nodded and placed a hand on her soft hair.

"It's okay Son' I've got you. You're safe now." She clung to him and refused to let go. Flashes of her past swirled in her head as she tried her hardest to block them out. Vampires, Vampaneze, hurt, comfort, screams, all memories in her mind that repudiated to leave her be. She couldn't take it anymore. She had wept tears and had screamed to the high heavens but they still hadn't appeared. Still no sign of a vampire and his assistant.

"I'm scared and I need them to help me find him. I need to find out what is wrong with me and…I can't do this." He clutched her tighter and buried his head in her hair.

"It's okay, I'm here, you are alright and… I will find them for you." He vowed as she shook her head.

"You can't, you don't even remember them. Is it because you don't want to? Are you afraid of coming face to face with your past?" He didn't understand a word of what she'd said and instead hushed her. "I weep at night alone because no one's there to save me from myself. I can't keep hiding from it and I can't keep rejecting the rest of the world. I need them to help me and if that's by risking my life…fine." Chad didn't understand what was up with her. She sounded suicidal and it scared Chad more than ever. Was she going to do something stupid? Something she would regret?

"What are you talking about?" He pulled her away but her eyes refused to meet his. She was ashamed of herself for wanting this. She was ashamed of wanting to know her destiny, wanting to know where she belonged. She was tired of being blinded my tears all of the time because she had been rejected. She remembered the time when Chad rejected her and that was the one that hurt the most.

*FLASHBACK*

"Chad please, just admit that you feel the same way." He turned to face her and smirked.

"Sonny, I don't love you and I am sorry but it's the truth. I don't love you and…" He trailed off and sighed. "See ya." He knew he did love her and he knew that rejection would hurt but he really did not need this right now.

"Chad, I know you do. The looks across the room, the smiles, the arguments, it's all connected and I know you feel it too.

"Sonny, please I really do not need this and I know it hurts being pushed away but… I just need room." Her heart fell and was shattered once more. She was blinded by love and it was the thing she needed most. She couldn't understand why she was pushed away and it sent a stab of pain through her.

"Fine. Fair enough but please, don't forget about me when you're having the time of your life."

*END OF FLASHBACK*

"I had a nightmare and in it, Mr Crepsley died." He furrowed a brow as she cut him off before he could begin. "I have to go."
