Disclaimer: First chapter, I'm lazy.
A/N
Here's the second chapter, I hurried up and finished it; I wanted to get it up sooner. It's up sooner than I expected it to be. I cut some of the original document off because I wanted to make more chapters...Yeah, so here it is, right where we left off, enjoy.
"Yeah, I didn't get to reply, I was busy." I said.
"Are you still single?" Chad sounded nearly embarrassed to ask it.
I giggled slightly, "Yeah, I am."
"Would you go out with me?" I pictured him smiling that handsome smile of his.
"Sure, when?"
"Tomorrow?"
I was surprised at how eager he was, "I'd love to."
"I'll pick you up, where do you live?"
"I'll meet you wherever you plan on taking to me."
"Don't you trust my driving?"
I giggled some more as Tawni eyed me strangely.
"I trust you," I said, then said more lowly, "I've always trusted you."
"Then I'll pick you up, I want it to be a surprise."
I smiled, "Alright, fine. But I've got a surprise for you too."
I imagined him raising an eyebrow at that comment.
"I'll pick you up at six; I want to see you and now. It's been three and half years."
"A lot has happened in three and a half years Chad."
"What do you mean, Sonny?"
"You'll see tomorrow."
"So where do you live now?"
I told him where I lived. We hung up after saying goodbye.
"Was it Chad?"
"Yeah, it was, he asked me on a date tomorrow."
"Tomorrow? Wow, he must really want to see you, Sonny. Are you going to introduce him to Demi?"
I sighed, how would he take it? I looked at Tawni, "Should I? I mean, how do you think he'll take it? He doesn't know she exists! He never knew that I was pregnant."
"What do you think you should do?"
"I don't know, he probably should know, but yet, I don't know how I can do it. I could just be like, 'Hey Chad, remember when we broke up? Well, I was pregnant but you didn't give me a chance to tell you, so meet your daughter. Her name's Demi Mackenzie Munroe, I didn't want you to find out about her because I didn't know how you'd handle it, so I used my last name.'"
"That might work." Grady said, walking into the room.
I raised an eyebrow at him, "You honestly think that will work?"
He sat down next to Tawni, he put an arm around her, "I don't know, what are we even talking about?"
"Sonny is going on a date with Chad tomorrow, he's back in Hollywood." Tawni answered.
"Are you going to tell him about Demi?" Grady asked.
I rolled my eyes, "No, I'm going to tell him she's my cat."
"Really?" He looked serious that I was going to tell Chad my daughter was my cat.
"What do you think?"
"I don't know."
I shook my head, "No! I'm not going to tell him she's my cat!"
"Oh, but you just said…."
"I was joking!"
"Oh, then why didn't you say so? And why are you all mad all of a sudden?"
"I think Sonny's PMS-ing." Tawni said.
"Oh, that explains it."
I knew that Tawni had taught him the meaning of 'PMS-ing', she's like Godzilla when it happens to her, it's a pretty sight to see, it's terrifying.
"So are you going to introduce him to her?"
I looked at the two of them, they were so happy together, "I think I have to."
"We can take her when you go tomorrow." Grady offered.
"No, I think I have to let Chad meet his daughter, it's been three years since she was born and yet he hasn't met her yet, it's about time he has."
"We'll still be here if he doesn't want to be with you because of her." Tawni replied.
"Thanks Tawni, that makes me so confident."
"Anytime, Sonny, just tell us."
I rolled my eyes; she was a stereotypical blonde alright.
Demi and Gordon came into the room, Demi came towards me and Gordon went towards Tawni and Grady.
"Momma," Demi said, "I'm sleepy, when are we going home?"
I smiled at her, "We'll leave right now." I picked her up, then I stood up.
"We'll see later." I said, walking towards the door, I opened it. I walked towards the elevator down the hall, the elevator made its way to the lobby. I walked through it and out the door to the car. I put Demi in the pink car seat. I went to the driver's seat and sat down; I started the car up, then started to drive home.
"Momma?" Demi's tiny voice asked as we were on our way home.
"Yeah, Sweetie?" I replied, my eyes focused on the road ahead.
"Why don't I have a daddy?"
I was surprised at this question; I barely stopped my foot from slamming on the brakes, "Well, Demi, you see…" I trailed off some, thinking of a proper reason. Her anxious blue eyes, Chad's eyes were what I thought of, watched the rear view mirror, she could see me from it, eagerly waited for an answer.
"Momma, do I even have a daddy?" She asked.
"Of course you do, it's just that…."
"Why isn't he with us then?"
I sighed, I didn't know if I could actually tell her the truth, I thought about telling her that she would meet her father soon, that she would meet him, that she would meet Chad, "Demi, now's not the time to for this."
"Momma, please!"
"Demi, later, I have a feeling you might meet him soon." I knew that I was going to let Chad meet his daughter if it was the last thing that I did, I had to, he had a right to know that she existed. With that, brought thoughts of what might happen, he might not believe that she's his daughter, which was one thought that went through my mind. But then I realized, she looked more like him than she did me, he couldn't think that she wasn't his daughter. I observed a lot of his attitude in her sometimes, it was strange, she was so much like him living a few years without him.
"You really think so, Momma?" Her little blue eyes were filled with so much excitement. I smiled at that.
I nodded that I thought so.
She looked as if she were about to break out of the car seat, luckily she wasn't quite strong enough to.
The rest of the ride home was filled Demi's squeals of excitement. When were in the house, she had to get a bath which she wasn't too happy about. Once she was in her pajamas, brushed her teeth, and got into bed, I went to tuck her in. I tucked the blankets around her. I went to leave the room and turn out the light when she spoke, "Momma, can you tell me a bedtime story."
I smiled at her, as I walked back over to her bed, "Sure, what book do you want me to read you?"
"Can you tell me how you and Daddy met?"
I laughed, I was surprised, though I probably shouldn't have, I grabbed the chair at the desk that she would use when she actually had gone to school and had homework.
She stared at me, "I want to know."
"Alright, alright."
She smiled when she knew I was going to tell her.
"So, where should I start?" I thought for a moment, "Well, I made this video and posted it on the web, it was a hit with So Random!, my favorite show; they wanted me to be on their show which I immediately agreed. Your grandma and I moved to Hollywood. I was excited about being on the show. Tawni and I didn't get along well at first because…."
"Why didn't you?"
I sighed, then laughed, "I was getting there. Tawni was more self-centered then…."
"What's self-centered?"
"Self-centered is when they care more about themselves than anyone else." When I said this, it reminded me so much of Chad and how self-centered he was, he eventually changed towards to me, unfortunately, only towards me, he was still the same with the paparazzi though, he did anything to get attention after we got together still. It felt great for us to be together then, I would hang on his arm, and the paparazzi followed us everywhere, which got annoying.
"Okay, can you tell me the rest?"
I smiled, "Tawni, started ordering me around in the costume I was wearing because I liked it so much, it was waitress uniform. So she told me to get her something from the cafeteria, the rest of the cast followed along with needing stuff. I went to the cafeteria to get what they'd demanded, I was finishing up when Chad Dylan Cooper…."
"What does Chad Dylan Cooper have to do with you meeting Daddy?"
I laughed some more, "Everything, sweetheart, more than you know it now. Anyway, he had thought I was an actual waitress; it was sort of embarrassing since I had a fat suit on. He asked me to get some stuff for his cast on Mackenzie Falls…."
"Mackenzie? That's my middle name! Why's it my middle name?"
"You'll understand, I thought you wanted me to tell you a story. Anyway, I freaked out that I was meeting Chad Dylan Cooper. He thought I was some deranged fan or something. He signed an autograph and took the yogurts I had gotten for the so Random! cast, it was worth it though. There, that's how I met your dad."
"Wait, who's my daddy then?"
"You didn't understand who your dad was?"
She shook her head 'no'.
I sighed, "Who was the only boy that I mentioned?"
"Chad Dylan Cooper?"
I nodded.
"He's my daddy?"
I nodded again.
"Then, why isn't he here with us?"
"I'll explain later." I stood up, put the chair back, kissed her forehead, turned the light off, and left into the hall.
"Goodnight, baby girl." I said before closing the door. I heard little snores almost immediately after shutting it. I smiled; I remembered how Chad snored while he slept.
I walked down the hall and got a shower, and did all of my normal things I did before I went to bed. After those things were finished, I finally laid down in my lonely bed.
My head was spinning; I knew it was nearly impossible I would get to sleep. I felt like a little kid at Christmas time as time went by and I still wasn't asleep. I felt the butterfly feeling in my stomach, I was so excited and yet so nervous, I eventually fell asleep around one. It wasn't easy though, but yet somehow, my eyes were extremely heavy, I had to close them. I fell asleep in moments.
A/N
The next chapter won't start off with Chad finding out about his daughter, sorry, I can't do that. Even after he does find out about her, I'm going to make the story drag out some more. So don't think it's over after you read next chapter, if you read it. I like how the end of the next chapter is, I think it's sort of funny.... Anyway, yeah, review please! Reviews are much appreciated. ;D
