This is a revised version of this chapter. I combined chapters 1 and 2, and also changed a significant part at the end. This is dedicated to my bff, for giving me the new idea!

It was morning.

But not just any morning. It was the kind of morning you wake up, and your pillow sticks to your cheek, and there's drool on your chin.

Tawni's shouts drown out my groans as I sat up sleepily, and propped my arms on the table, crossed over each other.

"Sonny!" she yelled, flouncing toward me in her purple dress. "I put you in charge of decorating the food table, and what do you do? Fall asleep right next to the chocolate fountain!"

"Sorry," I mumbled. My pillow must have been the table cloth, and the drool was chocolate. I blinked, but the room was still a colorful blur, and Tawni was still an angry blob, standing impatiently in front of me.

What was happening? The room I stood in didn't look familiar to me. And what was Tawni talking about? What chocolate fountain?

And then I remembered. It was the premier party for the new season of Mackenzie Falls.

Ugh. I know. I dreaded the thought of four straight hours of nothing but the enemy and his evil minions, then another hour of watching the primer.

The walls around me were decked out in blue streamers, balloons, and giant posters of each of the Mac Falls stars. About a dozen round tables were spaced evenly throughout the floor, and Tawni stood still, glaring at me down her nose, as if I was below her level of being.

"Um…hello?" She waved a hand in my face. "The party starts in less than an hour, and we still need to pick up the cake."

I pushed my self from the table, and wobbled a couple steps to catch my balance. "Alright, I'm on it," I told her, before rushing form the party room.

My jeep was outside. And, yes. I had a jeep. A cute red on with a convertible roof and black leather seats. It was a present from my mom on my one-year anniversary of being on So Random.

Keys…

They were in my back pocket.

Purse…

Strapped around my shoulder, equipped with credit cards, a cell phone, and extra cash.

One of my many pairs of black skinny jeans hugged my hips, a white leather jacket sat on my shoulders against a tight blue T-shirts, and my high-heal white shoes clomped as I walked faster through the hallway.

"Ouch!" I groaned, stumbling against the body that had collided sideways against me. "Watch it!"

"Oh, hey Sonny!" Chad said, but it was obvious he had forced the perfect-toothed grin at me. He wore his usual Mackenzie Falls uniform, but instead of looking pressed and ironed like it normally was, it appeared wrinkled.

I scoffed at it, and had already begun talking before the words were filtered through my brain. "You look awful. What'd ya do? Find your clothes at the bottom of the laundry pile?"

Chad stole a quick glace down his uniform, the snapped his head back up to get back at me. "You have chocolate all over your face."

I ignored my blush, and again said something else without thinking about it. Hey, it's easy to do when you're talking to a jerk.

"Lick it off!"

"Eww…"

"What? It's just chocolate."

"On your cheek!"

"So?"

"So…"

"So!"

"What are we…talking about?" Chad asked, closing his eyes in annoyance.

My eyes searched around, as if the answer was magically in adrift in midair, and replied, "I don't…know."

"Well," he said drawing keys from his coat pocket and flipping them around his finger. "We've got a cake to pick up. I'm coming with you."

"Well…fine!"

"Fine!"

"Good!"

"Good!"

"Wait…what?"


"You are not coming with me!" I demanded, as if it was my decision. I ran at his heals, but he didn't make any sign of turning around to talk about it.

"Chad!" I yelled, louder than was intended.

He stopped. He turned so slowly, I'd have to use a calendar to record how long it took.

I closed my eyes, filled my chest with air, and opened them again. "Which car are we taking?"

"Mine," he said before I would finish my sentence.

Wow, conceded much? "Why yours?"

Personally, I didn't give a crap which one we took. But I wasn't about to let him push me around. So, I had to argue for it.

As if surrendering, Chad threw his palms up in the air like a double high-five. "We can take your car. But I'm driving."

Fine, I agreed in my head, but my lips didn't agree. They weren't done yet. "Why are you driving?" I challenged. "It's my car!"

"Yeah, but I know how to get there."

Dang it! He had me beat! I had no idea where we were going…so I guess I should let him drive.

"Okay." I took my keys from my pocket, and handed them to him.

Chad looked down at them in his open palm, then back up to me. "That's it?"

I stared at him. Sometimes I forgot he was "Chad Dylan Cooper-Hollywood heartthrob and the greatest actor of out generation. So sometimes, I forgot that simple gestures of kindness(like generously handing someone your keys) wasn't comprehendible for his brain capacity.

"No strings attached," I told him.

He nodded, then began to walk toward the jeep before turning around again.

"Sonny?"

I crossed my arms. "What?"

For only a moment, a smirk played across his lips. Then they curved to a grin. He stepped toward me, and too quickly for me to react properly, he placed his finger gently under my chin, and ran his warm, wet tongue across my cheek.

I stood, frozen in shock as he slowly backed away from me. My heart was beating so furiously, I could hear it. And, I couldn've sworn he could hear it too. Because it was SO FRIKEN LOUD!

"Mmm..." he said, smacking his lips together. "Chocolate."

Review…pretty please….with sprinkles on top: )
