AUTHORS NOTE: Just to give you guys a future update, but I will be away from Internet access the last week of July - so I won't be able to update then. I was waiting to get one more review today, but decided I should just put the chapter up anyways. More reviews = Faster Updates. :D I'm SOOO happy with the response to this story, it's only the third chapter too! :D Keep it up!
Disclaimer: If I was lucky enough to own Sonny With A Chance, Chad Dylan Cooper would be in love with me. But I don't, because he isn't. :( Although, the plot of the story is mine. :D
She giggled, "Don't be smart Chad."
"I can if I want to."
They both joked with each other for the rest of the meal, and put their plates in the dishwasher for the maid to run.
While Sonny was in the bathroom, Chad had searched for the linen closet and started piling pillows and blankets on the couch.
Sonny walked into the room, and halted when she saw the mountain of pillows. "Um… Chad? What are you doing, exactly?"
He let out a laugh, "I'm making the couch into a bed."
"Chad, you don't have to sleep on that couch, it's not even a real couch." Sonny walked up to the furniture and put her hand on the cushions, "It's so hard, it would be like sleeping on a park bench."
He shrugged, "Yeah, modern furniture is like that. Apparently people don't care about comfort anymore."
Sonny let out a sigh, "You can sleep in the bed Chad."
"No!" He frowned, "I may be known as a jerk, but I'm still a gentleman. I'm not going to let you sleep on the couch."
She blushed, "Well… what I meant was that…"
Chad stopped arranging the pillows and gave her a small smirk, "Allison Monroe, are you saying you want me to sleep in the bed, with you?"
Sonny's cheeks were crimson red, "Well… uh…" She let out a chuckle, "It's a huge bed, it's not like we'd be anywhere near each other. If you really hate me that much, you could put a wall of pillows between us. I don't really care, I just don't want you to have to sleep out here when I'm-"
"Sonny!" Chad exclaimed, chuckling at her rambling, "I understand. I was just trying to make you blush. And no, I don't hate you enough to have to stack pillows between us."
Sonny giggled, "Uh… right."
"I don't hate you at all." He mumbled, left the blankets where they were, and headed over to his suitcase, "If you want to change in the bathroom first, that's ok with me."
"Go ahead, I still have to find my pajamas." Sonny mumbled as she searched through her own bags for her familiar polka dot pajama set.
After Chad had closed the door of the bathroom, she found her clothes and grabbed her toothbrush and hairbrush.
She bit her lip, wondering how long it would take Chad to change, and figured she had enough time to sneak to the kitchen and grab one of the chocolate chip cookies that were sitting in the cookie jar.
"Sneaking a cookie, Monroe?" Her hand had finally reached the cookie, and she dropped it in surprise. After realizing it was just Chad she reached back in to grab the cookie.
"I thought it would take you longer than that."
He reached over her shoulder to grab a cookie from the jar as well. "Nope."
She rolled her eyes, "I can see that." After finishing her cookie, she took her turn to change and brush her teeth. When she opened her door, she saw that Chad was already in bed, looking at his phone.
"Conversing with the Falls?" Sonny asked, as she slipped into the bed, realizing that she was right about the bed being able to fit eight people. Chad was a good 4 feet away from her.
"Nah. Just checking my Myspace." He smiled at her, "Do you have one?"
"Yeah…" She blushed, "I just don't know how to use it. So it's basically nothing, and I don't have any friends."
Chad chuckled, "I can help you, where's your iPhone?"
Sonny handed him her phone, and Chad logged in to her Myspace. For almost an hour, he helped her build her profile, and change her settings. And after adding himself as her friend, more friend requests started to pop up.
"Hm… I'm your number one friend, I feel so honored." Chad grinned.
Sonny giggled, "Yeah, you put yourself there. At least I know how to change it now."
"I put you in my top friends!" Chad defended himself, pointing to the screen of his phone.
"But I'm not first!"
Chad grinned, "You have to earn that spot."
Sonny laughed and let out a yawn. Chad noticed and turned off his phone.
"Alright, lights out for Monroe." He grinned as she blushed and turned off the light next to the bed.
Sonny bit her lip as she stared at the ceiling. She had forgotten to call her mom, to say goodnight, and she was starting to feel a little homesick. The heater kicked on, and she flinched at the noise it made.
Chad rolled over on his side to watch her, and tried to hold back his chuckles when she flinched. Sonny must have heard him, because she turned towards him and gave him a glare.
"Goodnight Chad." She exclaimed and rolled over facing the wall.
Chad chuckled and whispered, "Goodnight Allison."
Even though the lights were off, and he couldn't see her face at all from where he was lying, Chad could tell that she was blushing.
-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_
Sonny woke up the next morning, and reluctantly opened her eyes. As she was stretching her arms above her head, she realized that not only was she alone in the bed, but she was also sprawled out in the middle of it.
The smell of fresh pancakes came from the kitchen, and lured her out of bed.
She peeked out of the doorway to see Chad, in his blue plaid pants and wife beater, cooking at the stove. Without knowing it, her eyes were drawn to his arm muscles as he flipped the pancakes, and she couldn't tear her eyes away.
"I could've sworn I heard footsteps." Chad mumbled, causing Sonny to break out of her trance. She frowned at how immature she was being and walked over to his side.
"Good morning Sunshine." He grinned at his own joke, and flipped another pancake with his silver spatula.
She rolled her eyes, "Good morning Chad."
He snickered and handed her a plate, "Here, you can start eating. I just have to finish this one pancake."
Sonny took the plate and leaned down to take in a deep breath of the warm pancakes. "Mm…" She moaned, "They smell delicious Chad." She looked up to see that Chad had bitten his lip and closed his eyes, "What's wrong?"
"N-Nothing!" His eyes flashed open quickly, "Nothing a-at all."
Sonny raised an eyebrow and her eyes raised up to his, her stomach filled with butterflies as she noticed his eyes had darkened.
"Um… I'm just going to… uh, go eat these." She mumbled and fled from the room. Her heart was racing as she thought back again to how his eyes seemed to be filled with want, and although she only saw it for a second, it still made her melt.
She mentally slapped herself, Chad couldn't want her… at least, not in that way. And besides, she could've been seeing things.
As he sat down across from her, his blue eyes were bright and sparkly again.
Yes, she was just seeing things.
Hm, so since this isn't in Chad's POV you don't get to see why he had the reaction to Sonny's moan - but is it foreshadowing of future chapters? :D Hopefully....
Review Please, I'll update ASAP - you guys are amazing! :D
