"Let me guess… you met my brother?"
My face scrunched up in confusion and stared at her signaling that I had no idea what she was talking about. She then began to continue
"You know; tall boy, blonde hair, deep blue eyes and works on Mackenzie Falls?"
That's when it hit me, HE was Tawni's brother. Unbelievable.
"Oh him. How do you know?"
She started laughing at me and then sputtered
"You came in here, slid down the door, started to breathe heavily. Please, you so met him. He's got that effect on people. Shame I never got that, but he takes after Dad. It's his eyes, striking aren't they? He works on Mackenzie Falls, our rival, so don't even think about it. You're forbidden. He's got this ultimate control over everyone. It's unbelievable. He's like a god. Everyone respects him. Noticed?"
I started to take in what she was saying and then I realized it all made sense. Mackenzie Falls was a teenage drama show about students in high-school. That explained the uniforms. He is a god, everyone did respect him. That's why there was that silence as he stood up. Of course he's proud, he knows he's got control over everyone. And why didn't I notice it before? He was Tawni's brother. Otherwise why would he have that annoying smirk that she has. I guess they do have some things in common; Dominance, pride, blonde hair, blue eyes, beauty and ice. But what did she mean about "don't even think about it". Think about what?
"What are you talking about? Of course I met him. But I wasn't thinking of him in any way. I understand, he's a rival and I'll stay away. Just want to let you know that you two are so much alike. You're both proud. It's quite sad really. The fact that you two are so notorious. Actually, I think you're scared of him. The fact that he's more powerful than you. You're just jealous of him. Don't worry so much about me. I think I get the point. I'll hate him if you want. I don't mind." I was pleased with my comeback to her brotherly speech. I could see her face turn into anger, but then it slowly calmed down.
"Good girl." That was all she said before she turned back to the mirror.
I just had one more thing to ask her though. I made a mental note, after this, no more day dreaming.
"What's his name?" Well, it was a good question. Her face turned into a sly smile and then she turned to face me once again.
"Chad Dylan Cooper. He took our family name. I took my mum's maiden name. Having a twin brother is ridiculously annoying. Reasons why I pretend not to be related to him."
"Oh." It was all I could say. I decided to go for a walk around the studio. Maybe to just explore the place. I never actually had time to do all that, there was just way too many obstacles.
Slowly moving to every set I tried my very best to avoid the Mackenzie Falls set. It was really hard but I did it. When it was lunch time I tried my best not to look over at the Mackenzie Falls table. It was really hard but I did it. When I went to serve my food I carefully opened the trays to choose what to have.
Today's food seemed awfully over fried. Everything was black as if it was burnt. I shrugged. Guess the cook was having a bad day. Then looking over to my right I saw Brenda, the cook, crying her eyes out. Guess I was right. Sonny Monroe just does not do tears though.
"Brenda, what's wrong?" I had to interfere. I couldn't help it. She slowly looked up and then I saw her mascara running down her cheeks. She wiped them off and then smiled.
"Nothing really. It's just that Chad Dylan Cooper didn't like my salmon."
I winced when I heard his name. My effort to forget him was just crushed by this crying lady. She was pouring her eyes out just because a jerkthrob refused to eat her food? This is outrageous. I suddenly wasn't mesmerized by him anymore. I hated him. I truly hated him. Just because he was so mighty and strong it didn't mean he could push people around.
"Well Brenda, next time, take my advice and don't give a damn about Chad Dylan Cooper." I smiled at her and whipped my head around. Walking proudly back to my table. I slammed my tray down and roughly began to eat my food. I decided to sit alone for lunch. I was afraid that if I sat with the cast that I would try to stab them with my fork. Nobody makes innocent people cry for no reason. That was a Sonny Rule. If you break a Sonny Rule, you get Sonny Punishment; anger.
I picked up my dark red grape juice and stormed towards the door. I continued to stare at the floor. I just couldn't be bothered to look up. Suddenly I was on the floor with someone on top of me. We were both covered in my dark red juice. I looked up to see those cold blue eyes stare into mine. Chad Dylan Cooper. I grabbed his shirt and pushed him off me. I stood up, took another glass of grape juice from the counter and poured it on him.
"Next time, eat the food. Or I swear to god I'll kill you." I know it was harsh but it felt good. I walked out of the room leaving everyone, including Cooper, gawking at me. Once I was out of sight I ran back to my dressing room and locked the door behind me. Groaning when I saw my shirt. It was covered in that stained juice.
"What happened to you?" Tawni said when she saw me.
This time it was my turn to laugh. I just couldn't stop. It was brilliant, exciting, amazing. What I just did was history. I felt her glare at me like I was an idiot so I stopped. I looked down at my dress and blushed.
"Yeah, well I had a bit of an accident with your brother at the cafeteria." I started shuffling my feet.
"YOU DID WHAT!? I told you not to even talk to him! What is wrong with you? What happened?" Her face was red, like the hulk. It was not a good look for her.
"I just spilled a bit of juice on him accidently. Don't worry so much. We didn't communicate afterwards." I calmly lay down on my bed.
There was a loud knock on the door which interrupted Tawni and Sonny's emotions. Sonny stood up and rushed into the bathroom. She didn't want anyone to see her with this big red patch on her. Tawni sighed and stood up opening the door.
"What are you doing here?" she said to the purple boy standing in front of her.
