"Chad! Dylan! Cooper!" I heard a voice scream. I yawned and realized it was my alarm clock. My mom had set it to say that to wake me up.
I let out another yawn, and went and got dressed in some summer clothes.
We weren't gonna start filming for another week. Spencer had thankfully stayed clear of me.
So I pulled a pair of light brown shorts out, and a regular black t-shirt. It was just an ordinary 10 dollar shirt I bought at Wal-mart.
I slipped on a pair of black converse with no laces and went to visit Sonny.
So your probably wondering who had called me the week before, right?
"Hey, this is Chad Dylan Cooper, whats up?" I asked. My standard fan call pick-up.
"Uh, hey Chad. This is Zac" a male voice said. I crossed my fingers and wished that it wasn't Zac Efron.
"OK." I said.
"Zac Efron. And I just wanted to tell you that my cousin is a huge fan of yours, and she wanted to know if it was okay if I took her to visit you on the set or something" Zac Efron said.
"Uh, sure, what time?" I said. The words flew out of my mouth.
"6 next Saturday sound good? And if you wouldn't mind, maybe you could show her around the entire set" Zac continued.
"Ok. Bye" I said. I couldn't believe it. I had just made a... date with Zac Efron's cousin! She probably is just going to pretend so she can have Zac destroy the set while I'm meeting her. Great..
So, thats what happened. Stinks.
I decided to go over to the So Random! set to talk to Sonny about it.
20 minutes later, I knocked on the door to her and Tawni's dressing room.
"One minute!" I heard Tawni yell, and something made a thud.
"Hi! Oh... it's you" she said, obviously not happy.
"Sonny here?" I asked. She nodded and I went over to Sonny's side. She was on the floor, a chair next to her.
"What happened?" I asked.
"She fell when she heard you knock" Tawni answered for Sonny.
"You OK?" I asked, bending down to help her up.
"She's fine" Tawni, again, answered. I rolled my eyes.
"Uh Sonny, We have a day off of filming, so I was wondering if we could... maybe.... hang out?" I suggested, not telling her I wanted to go on a date.
"Maybe" Tawni answered.
"C'mon Sonny" I said, pulling her out.
"I guess, but can I get out of these clothes?" Sonny asked, refering to her pajamas.
"Sure" I said. Five minutes later, Sonny was out.
"So who was that girl you've been with?" Sonny asked. I thought I heard a little bit of jealously in the tone of her voice.
"Oh that's Spencer, she's our newest cast member. And we're getting another new member soon" I said, with a slight sigh at the end.
"Whats wrong?" Sonny asked.
"It's just that.. I don't know... and... Portlyn left just as fast as she came. So I'm afraid I might get attached to one of the new cast members. The only girl thats been on there ever since the beginning is Lilee, and she's like a sister to me, she was even before MacKenzie Falls, so they aren't gonna let her go." I said, hardly taking a breath.
"Wow." Sonny said.
"Yeah" I agreed.
Just then my phone started blaring a song that Sonny had recorded and put on Youtube, and I had downloaded. It was called "So Far, So Great"
"Hmm" Sonny said, smirking.
I blushed.
"Hello?" I asked. It was our director, so why say the fan call pickup. Our director is named Kyle. He's really cool.
"Hey Chad, I just wanted to tell you that our other new cast member and her best friend are coming early. They're coming by tonight." He said.
"OK, bye Kyle" I said.
"Who is Kyle?" Sonny asked me. By then, we were out watching clouds float by.
"Our director. There's another reason MacKenzie Falls and So Random! are enemies." I said.
"Really?" Sonny asked, suprised.
"Yeah. Kyle, and your director Marshall, they're cousins. And their dads were also having them compete against each other. Neither of them liked it, and neither of them never winned. But one time, they tied at a swimming contest. And Marshall wanted the trophy, but so did Kyle. So when they both became directors, they knew that they would compete for ratings." I told her.
"Wow. No one ever told me that" Sonny said.
"I'm the only one Kyle has ever told" I replied.
"That's really cool of him" Sonny told me.
I started to get distracted by a patch of grass on the ground.
"Chad, tell me what's wrong" Sonny asked, with a serious "do it or else" look on her face.
"Zac Efron is coming and bringing his cousin who is a huge fan of me, and so is our newest cast member and her friend, so we'll have 2 more girls running aroung the set, being... well.... look at Spencer, what do you think these two will be like?" I explained, complete with a worried look.
"Chad. I'm gonna tell you something my mom always told me when I was little and worried. 'Keep your head up high, and reach for the sky. It's not the limit, you've got to win it. I believe in you, you believe in me, together, side by side, we'll find something to see.'" Sonny quoted.
"That's.... inspirational" I replied.
"And my dad always told me, 'Live like your at the bottom, even if your at the top' I never really understood that until now" Sonny continued.
"Speaking of dads, do you mind if I ask a personal question?" I said, still looking at the patch of grass.
"Shoot" she said, I glanced at her as she shrugged.
"What happened to your dad?" I asked.
"He's....around. Just not these parts."Sonny said, quickly and quietly.
"ok" I said.
"yours?" she asked.
"Not here" I told her. I guess neither of us wanted the other to know that much.
"OK" She said. She looked at me, flashing a smile. You know how I told you last week that I flashed her a million-dollar-smile. Well Sonny has a billion-dollar-smile. It's so... white, and they don't need to get whitened with any of the 300 shades of white. I need to talk to her dentist about a dental plan simalar to hers.
"I'm cheesy" I muttered to myself.
"What?" Sonny asked.
"We should go. I gotta make sure the set is clean for Zac Efron's" I started, then sighed. "Cousin" I continued.
"Probably. Well, mind if I come with you?" Sonny asked, a smile planted firmly on her face.
"Sure." I said with a shrug.
"Awesome" she said, as we walked toward the set.
