*SONNY'S POV*
The next day, Chad tried to make me feel better.
"Um, are you okay?" he asked uneasily. I gave him a grim smile that showed him that I was far from okay. How could you be okay after your heart is broken and scattered all over the floor?
"I'm just dandy," I replied sarcastically. He got the hint. Chad stared for a while, and then dropped his gaze. "Don't bother me," I instructed. He was silent.
I blinked. Then I thought about what I said. Darn it; I immediately regretted it.
"Actually, sit down," I ordered. Chad did. "Listen."
"Okay, so Brett broke up with me, right? I don't know how to deal with this. I've never dealt with a player, much less one that does so to become famous. It's just that it's complicated. I like him, but not anymore, but I still do. Are you getting this?" I asked after lecturing a bit.
"So you mean you love him wrongly?" Chad inquired for clarification. I widened my eyes. He actually seemed to get it! As I pressed on with my rambling, Chad seemed to understand every part.
"You don't want to love him, though you do. He wrongly dumped you, though you still have feelings for him. What you need is a post-breakup distraction." Chad advised. Meanwhile, I was scrawling it down on a piece of paper.
I paused for a moment. "Wait, how do know all this stuff? You've never been dumped… or have you?" I asked suspiciously.
He scoffed. "Why would anyone dump Chad Dylan Cooper?"
I raised my eyebrows. "You haven't answered my question yet."
"I know this stuff, because…" Chad stalled. "I've been in unrequited love."
I felt close to tears. Poor guy! He had it worse than I did.
"Are you still in it now?" I asked hesitantly. He nodded.
"Does she know?" I asked him, like I did on the airplane ride. Chad sadly shook his head.
"Oh; I got the best idea! I'll set you two up! She'll find out that she's in love with you, blah-blah, and you'll become an item! I'm so good!" I brightened up.
"Okay, then. I'll call her, and then give the phone to you." Chad said rather nervously. He pressed the number 2 on his speed dial, and held his phone to his ear.
A few seconds later, my phone started to moo. I paid no attention to it.
"Aren't you going to get that?" Chad asked. I shook my head.
"I really want to talk to whoever that girl is." I replied brightly. Yet I felt a twinge of jealousy.
"No; answer it," Chad's voice rose.
"I hate it when you yell at me," I said timidly. Chad's rigid demeanor diminished. "Sorry. Just…answer your phone."
I picked it up and trilled, "Hi; Sonny Monroe here." When no one answered, I muttered, "Hmm," and checked the caller ID.
After I read it, I let my phone slowly fall out of my hands and onto the bed. I froze.
It was Chad Dylan Cooper.
****
This was unbelievable. I just didn't know what to do.
"Why do you like me? I thought you hated me! Right? I'm so confused right now…" I paced the ground. I wouldn't meet his eyes.
"Sonny…" Chad began
"Just… give me time to think about it." I finished.
It was evening, and I sat on the bed, listening to the songs on my "Love Struck" playlist on my iPod. The song "You Are the Only One" by Emily Osment.
'Cause you are the only one
That gets me feels me knows me has me
And you are the only one
Who's close enough to drive me crazy
Frustrate me complicate me
Make it harder than it needs to be
The things that you do, the things that you say
Make me wanna stay
It was so true it was creepy.
I thought it over.
Chad saved my butt when he dressed up as Eric. He gave me a dance at the secret prom. Yeah, he might be arrogant, or cocky, or whatever you want to call it, but I liked that he saved his sweeter side for when we were alone.
After mulling it over with 7 songs, I'd made my decision.
I was unconditionally and irrevocably in 'like' with Chad Dylan Cooper.

*CHAD'S POV*
I was in a bathroom. I did not like the bathroom. It smelled like soap. Not the good smelling soap, like cucumber melon, but the disgusting, fancy type.
Sonny told me to stay in here, door locked, until she was finished thinking. One of the following could happen.
Option 1 was that she would tell me she didn't reciprocate my feelings, and wanted no part of me. I would sulk in a corner for the rest of my life.
Option 2 was that she would tell me she wanted to be friends.
Option 3 was that she would confess her love for me. We'd make out, and live happily ever after in my beach house.
I was really hoping it was Option 3.
When I heard Sonny knocking on the door, I quickly stepped out, free of the horrid smell of soap. "It smells in there." I commented.
Sonny lifted up one side of her lips. "I know. It smells like… (She took a quick whiff of the scent) a vitamin; the way a vitamin tastes when it's in your mouth for too long."
We awkwardly stood there for a moment. Then I guided her to sit on the bed with me. She pursed her lips. "I don't know how to put this…"
Oh no. It was Option 1.
"I… like you, and you told me you like me back. So… yeah," Sonny breathed. She looked kind of scared. Not like terrified, like if a ghost was there, but scared of my reaction. Was she scared that I was going to reject her? As if.
"I'm not going to reject you, if that's what you're thinking," I assured her. She relaxed.
I needed to kiss her. It was the perfect time. But Sonny had to ruin it and draw the curtains.
"Why is it so dark in here?" she asked to no one in particular. She let the sunshine in.
When she returned, and sat back down, I just did it. I kissed her. I think at first she was trying to pull away, because she wasn't expecting it. But after a while, she relaxed and got comfortable in the big bed.
I wrapped my arms around her, and she did the same to me. My mouth grazed her neck, until she lowered her chin so our lips met again. She opened her mouth so that I could gain entrance, and I followed suit. She was an amazing kisser.
Actually, I was so amazed by her abilities that I didn't notice a camera lower down on a long plastic string that was outside the window. I also didn't notice that it was on timer. What finally made me sit up with attention was the camera flash. Sonny and I were in full view of the drawn window. We rushed up to the window.
Before it went back up, I saw the Sharona Knows logo in the corner. I also caught the 'Property of Santiago Geraldo' writing on the back.
Paparazzi.

Finally, there's some Channy. I'm not good at writing kissing scenes, so I usually steer clear of them. Sorry for the long wait. School is starting to overwhelm me. :(
REVIEW!!! :) Just asking, who likes FF's new logo?
