Chapter 7: Wishes Come True
Well, it's day two in the Condor Studios until my Wisconsin vacation, and I'm now heading toward Studio 3. Ever since, I talked with Chad yesterday, he hasn't been bugging me out so far. 8:40 a.m. and no sign of Chad, yet.
I enter the studio with ease, and I walk pass my costars' dressing rooms, so I can make it to the Prop House. Suddenly, I hear something in Nico's dressing room. It is peculiar because it is something familiar.
The guitar tune! It was the same guitar tune that I heard in Mackenzie Falls set. Could it be Nico? But why would he be in the Mackenzie Falls set to play that song? Hm…maybe he wants to try to win over Chastity because any chances with Marta and Portlyn are over.
I skip over to the Prop House to see Aaron and Tawni sitting in the couch just talking. It was nothing intimate, nothing that screams out "relationship", but they were talking.
"Hey, guys!" I call out.
"Hey, Sonny," they both greet back to me. Hmm…Tawni seems a bit too happy this morning, and bit more cooperative.
"Where's Grady?" I ask, not even bothering to ask where Zora is at because no one really knows where she's at exactly.
"With Mel," Aaron says with a smile. "Mel asked out Grady last night because she figured he had enough embarrassment yesterday."
"Aww," I gush. "That's so sweet of Mel."
"Yeah, so what do you want Sonny?" asks Tawni, who stood up from the couch, walking over to her laptop.
"Nothing, I was just going to ask Aaron if he done his lines right," I say, winking at Aaron as I say 'lines', but it seems that he had no idea what I was implying. "Did you ask Tawni…about the lines," I say stressing the word 'line', but Aaron is still clueless. "Never mind, it seems like you still need to practice, right? After lunch?"
"Oh!" Aaron says after the big realization hit him. "Right! But no, I never asked Tawni…about the lines, not yet because I still need to practice them with you."
"Oh gosh, you guys are so confusing," Tawni whines. "Aaron just tell me later after you practice your lines with Sonny."
"Okay," he replies.
Suddenly, the PA system rang out:
The So Random! cast please report to Marshall's office. Sonny Munroe report to Mr. Condor's office.
"Did you do anything wrong, Sonny?" ask Tawni, afraid for me.
"No, I'm sure I didn't do anything! Well, other than refusing to get that donut from the cafeteria lady. Was it wrong that it looked like a foot?"
"You better hurry, Sonny. You don't want to keep Mr. Condor waiting," warned Aaron, and he was true.
I rush my way to Mr. Condor's office, knowing the fastest way to get there, even though it's a risk I have to take myself: must go through Mackenzie Falls set. I walk through the secret pathways that I learned back when I was still Chad's girlfriend to make my way to Mr. Condor's office.
Suddenly, I heard two whispering voices.
"Chad, you need to work fast. She's leaving this Friday, you only have four days," says an unrecognizable voice.
"I know! I know! But I can't work that fast. Do you know hard it is to say—" I didn't hear the next part because I had to keep moving to Mr. Condor, and I couldn't risk being late.
Finally, I am at Mr. Condor's door, and I knock.
"Come in," he bellows.
I walk in, fidgeting the hem of my shirt.
"Sit down, Sonny. I just have a surprise for you." So I sit. "I'm aware that you planned to have your vacation this Friday, but how would you feel to have it start this Wednesday instead?"
"Really? Can you do that, sir?" I ask, kind of happy.
"Yeah, I am Mr. Condor," he says, but then mumbles, "and Aaron's manager demands him to finish his guest star this Wednesday, so he can audition for the new action movie."
"Oh, so basically we only have one rehearsal, and then tomorrow is the live performance, and then, I could have my vacation?"
"That's the plan, Sonny," he says. "I think you deserve it."
"Thank you, Mr. Condor!" I began to stand up and head out his office.
"Sonny," he says, and I stop at the door. "Thanks for making Condor Studios better."
I leave his office with a smile. I skip over to the So Random! set, not really caring about my surroundings. I see everyone there: Tawni, Aaron, Marshall, Nico, Zora, and Mel and Grady hand-in-hand. I smile. "Guys, Mr. Condor is letting me go at Wednesday night!"
All of my friends cheer.
"Wait, so the live audience is coming tomorrow instead?" asks Marshall, who is beginning to sweat on his bald spot.
"That's what the boss said," I reply.
"Oh dear…okay everybody, on set in five! Dress rehearsals!"
And with that work began. We are all professional actors so it wasn't so difficult to work in a fast pace. I just couldn't wait to have a vacation with my family and friends back in Wisconsin…I know Chad hasn't been annoying me as much anymore, but I don't know how I will act if I ever saw him in person again. Cry? Yes. Mad? Yes. At him and myself.
At lunch, we finish dress rehearsals, and I left to the cafeteria with all my friends, this time minus Marshall. The food is not so bad today because it was Tuesday Tacquitos and Tacos. So that was good.
After lunch, Aaron and I head out to his dressing room as everyone else left to go to the Patio, well except Nico because he is going out with a "friend".
"So, you had four days, and now, you're cut down to two days," I say. "You need to tell Tawni that you like her ASAP!"
"I know. I already made some plans, but I don't know if it's good," he replies.
"How'd you picture it?" I ask, kind of curious.
"Well, it was me with a suit with a rose in hand. You can tell her to dress nice, but don't tell her for what. Then, blindfold her and push her into the limo. From there, the limo driver will lead her into a private restaurant with a beautiful view of all of Hollywood, and then, I will reveal myself to her, and have a date with her, but really, I don't know how to ask her if she wants to be my girlfriend."
"Aww…Aaron that's so sweet. Very cliché, but it will make Tawni's heart melt, you don't have to say anything," I tell him.
"Really?"
"Really, so when are you doing this?"
"Tonight."
"Are you sure?" I ask.
"Yes."
"See, you didn't even need me after all. You did alright just on your own."
"No, Sonny, thank you," he replies. "You've been a good friend to me. Chad was one lucky man to have been dating you."
My heart stops and my mouth gape.
"Sonny, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that," Aaron apologizes.
I shook my head. "No, Aaron, it's alright." And then, I laugh. "Do you know what's funny?"
"No, what's funny?"
"You know how I told you that Chad knew that you were trying to date someone?" He nods. "Well, he thought you were trying to hit on me, so he got jealous, and I actually believed him!"
We both laugh. After a while, we realize it became 2 o'clock. From there on, Aaron and I began to organize Aaron and Tawni's first date. It looks like Tawni got her Prince Charming…an actor nonetheless.
