Sorry. I know I said I'd mention the first two people to review, but to be honest, I was so psyched to write this chapter, I didn't have time. I'm sorry if you were one of the first two people to review. I still appreciate reviews, though. And I absolutely promise to mention the first two reviewers in the next chapter. Keep reviewing!
Chapter 4
Sonny POV
I was running. Not from Tawni, or from her hurtful words, but from memories. Memories of the past. Memories I've tried to forget. And memories I'll never forget. The boyfriend. From another state. He dumped me when he found out I lived in Wisconsin. We met in New York, when I was on vacation with my family.
I was walking on the street, taking in all the lights and beauty. I watched as the people around me were going out for a jog, taking their dogs for a walk, and people like me, just enjoying the beautiful evening. Then I saw him. The person that's been staring at me all day. He walked over.
"Hey", he said.
"Uh...Hi."
"I'm sorry, but you look like someone I used to know."
"Oh, yeah?"
"Yeah. Hey, I'm sorry, but will you go to dinner with me. I know, it's sudden, but-"
"Yes! I mean, sure." He laughed.
"I'll pick you up here at eight."
"Sounds great."
"Hey, I don't think I got your name"
"It's Sonny. And yours?"
"What?- Oh, it's Drew."
"See you tonight, Drew."
"See you tonight."
I'll never forget that. How my heart swelled with happiness when a random person off the street asked me out. Was I foolish? Oh, definitely. Too foolish. I think that everyone is basically good and then I get disappointed. I'll never forget when, during the date, he asked me where I originally came from, and I told him I came from and grew up in Wisconsin. He laughed and told me that was a good one. When he realized I was serious, he said, and I quote,"We can't do this again." Tears were in my eyes, as they are now. And, worst of all, when he walked away, under his breath, he mumbled that I was stupid because I was from Wisconsin. And at that moment, my heart dropped, but not for the first time. My heart has been broken many times before that, and a couple after. The point is, I suck at relationships. So as I was running, shoving people out of the way, tears streaming down my face, the words and all the dates were repeating in my mind. Swirling, and swirling, until I had to sit down. I found a bench, and I sat down. I decided to eat lunch by myself. Tears were still streaming down my face, don't get me wrong.
So I saw a nearby restaurant, and began to get up and walk. But then someone I never expected to see in a million years pushed passed me. He shot me a look and, right to my face, said,"Stupid Wisconsin girl", and walked away. I ran into the restaurant. And ran into someone. I mumbled a, "Sorry." But I never got to see who I ran into. My vision was blurred. I could just make out blue eyes. Or were they green? But I couldn't remember because I sat at a table and looked at the menu. I could slightly see the person look at me, then walk away.
Well, at least now I'm alone. Little did I know, I would see that person again. And again.
So, what do you think? Please review so I can put up another chapter and continue with the story. And I promise to give a special thank you to the first two to review. Anyway, if you like Channy stories, check out my other one, Dare. Dare could use some reviews, too. Keep reviewing!
