There had been an awkward silence between Chad and I since seventeen days ago in French. We avoided each other for fear of 'relationship-type talks' starting up. We usually just grabbed PopTarts or Starbucks for breakfast, went to school without contacting each other, came home, Chad left to film MacKenzie Falls for an hour or two and I emerged from my room. I would talk with LeBraun or my parents. As soon as Chad's keys jingled in the door, I would dart. That was how it was every day. On the twentieth day I could not take it any more. I had to see him. I had to hear him. I had to breathe him. I burst through his door to find him eating a chocolate PopTart and looking at pictures of me. "Aww, Chad Dylan Cooper has a soft side!" I said, smiling at him.
His head snapped up. "SONNY!" He cried and ran over and hugged me super-tight. "Chad.... can't..... breathe..." I croaked jokingly. He hugged me lighter. "You have NO IDEA how good it feels to be with you, Sonny." he whispered in my ear. "So, Chad, I've done some thinking.." I whispered back. "Yea? And what have you thought?" he said softly. Everyone was still sleeping. "You're gonna have to prove to me you love me. I seen you flirtin' with Chassity." I said. And with that, I skipped to my room, put on a bikini and went and sat by the pool.
About an hour into my tan, I felt arms lifting me up. I snapped open my eyes to see Chad. "Hey Sonny Bunny, How's It Hanging?" he asked me, setting me down and taking me by the wrists and started speed-walking. "Pretty nice but I'd like to know where we're going." I said. He didn't answer me, until we reached a clearing with a little lake and a blanket with candles around it and a picnic basket. I looked at him, wide-eyed, eyes welled with tears. "What's wrong?" he asked me, his hand lightly caressing my shoulder. That gesture made my knees shake and the tears spilt. "I cant believe... That.. you.. would do this.. for me.." I croaked. "Well, believe it. You said to prove that you're the only one I'll ever love." he gently put his hand on my cheek. I pulled him into a hug. So maybe this was it. After almost six months of wondering what Chad Dylan Cooper thought of me, I found out. I studied his face. He definately wasn't lieng about this. "I love you, too." I whispered. He leaned in and kissed me. I put my arms around his neck and he wrapped his arms around my waist.
That night in my room, I was sitting on my bed and Chad was sitting cross legged on the floor by my bed. I had my guitar and was playing him a song about him.
There's somethin' 'bout the way the street looks when it's just rained
There's a glow off the pavement, you walk me to the car
And you know I wanna ask you to dance right there
In the middle of the parking lot, yeah
We're drivin' down the road, I wonder if you know
I'm tryin' so hard not to get caught up now
But you're just so cool, run your hands through your hair
Absent-mindedly makin' me want you
And I don't know how it gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me headfirst, fearless
And I don't know why but with you I dance
In a storm in my best dress, fearless
So baby drive slow 'til we run out of road
In this one horse town, I wanna stay right here
In this passenger seat, you put your eyes on me
In this moment, now capture it, remember it
'Cause I don't know how it gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me headfirst, fearless
And I don't know why but with you I'd dance
In a storm in my best dress, fearless
Well, you stood there with me in the doorway
My hands shake, I'm not usually this way
But you pull me in and I'm a little more brave
It's the first kiss, it's flawless, really somethin'
It's fearless
'Cause I don't know how it gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me headfirst, fearless
And I don't know why but with you I'd dance
In a storm in my best dress, fearless
'Cause I don't know how it gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me headfirst, fearless
And I don't know why but with you I'd dance
In a storm in my best dress, fearless
He looked at me, blinking. "That was amazing." he said, a little more loudly than needed. "Shhhh! Mom will hear us or dad and you really don't want them running in while we're sitting in my room at-" I looked at my watch. "Midnight!" I whisper-yelled. "Sorry" he whispered. I took his hand and pulled him on the bed with me. He pulled me into his lap and I put my head on his chest and fell asleep.
