I finished putting some clothes on a rail and walked over to the checkouts where people were queuing up waiting for service. I stood behind the counter and started serving people, thinking about Sonny. I wonder how she's getting on. What if one of the guys asked her out? What if she said yes? I think I'll go get her for lunch in a minute. I might take her to that cafe down the street...
'Excuse me?!' an old woman said in front of me,
'Sorry' I mumbled, whilst taking her clothes and checking them out for her. I finished checking things out at the till and went to pick Sonny up. I walked over to her department and saw her talking to two guys, holding outfits out to both of them. They both smiled and took the outfits. She smiled and waved at them as they walked away. She saw me and waved, walking over,
'Hey' she smiled,
'Hey' I replied, 'You wanna go for lunch?' I asked,
'Sure!' she smiled brightly. I loved her smile...'Where are we going?' she asked excitedly,
'Uh, I thought maybe that new place? The one by the Video game shop?' I asked,
'Great!' she exclaimed. I smiled along with her,
'Come on then' I said, taking her hand, and pulling her out of the shop. We were walking down the hall when I realised I was still holding Sonny's hand,
'Sorry' I mumbled, while taking my hand out of Sonny's,
'Don't be' she said, taking my hand again, 'It's nice' I smiled and laughed slightly. We arrived at the place we were eating for lunch and I led her to a table and we ordered.
After lunch, we headed back to Hollister. I had the afternoon off, but Sonny didn't so I just hung around with her until her shift was over, making sure no guys came too close...
"Lemme just grab my bag" Sonny told me just as we were getting ready to leave. She hopped over to the staff room and quickly returned with her bag in hand, "Ok, let's go!" she exclaimed.

As we were leaving, I was looking at Chad and bumped into someone,
"Oh! Sorry, I wasn't looking-" I started to apologize until I looked up and saw Jake,
"That's quite alright, Sunday" Jake smirked,
"Jake..." I trailed off, not having anything to say to him,
"Noticed you've quit working at Hips, as if that will keep me away" he chuckled,
"Piss off, Jake" Chad growled,
"So, what's this?" Jake asked me, "He's your new make out buddy?" he smiled. I didn't answer,
"Jake, I'm warning you..." Chad trailed off,
"You're warning me?" he clarified, smirking, "What are you gonna do?"
"Nothing, if you get out of our way and leave Sonny alone" he snapped, "For good" he added. Jake raised an eyebrow at Chad, "Well, well, me and Sunday have a...special bond" he winked at me, "And we still have a few dates to look forward to" he smirked at me, "Maybe we'll get a little further than we did last time, Sunda-" he didn't get a chance to finish due to Chad punching him in the face and him falling to the floor. I gasped and a few people turned to look at what happened. Chad took my hand quickly and led me to the car.
"Why did you do that?" I asked, when we got back to the apartment,
"Do what?" he asked, hanging his coat up and heading to the couch to throw himself on it,
"You know what" I replied, sitting next to him on the couch. He grabbed the remote and switched the TV on. He stared at the screen, not bothering to answer me, "Chad?" I asked again, "Chad, please talk to me" I begged, grabbing the remote and turning the TV off. He didn't seem to notice, still staring at that one spot with an angry look on his face,
"Every time, I see him I just-" he spat through his teeth, clenching his fist, "It reminds me off how me-"
"Chad, it's ok-"
"No, it's not fucking ok, Sonny!" he snapped, standing up, "He hurt you! He fucking hurt you! And I wasn't there to—Ugh!" He started pacing around the room. I stayed sitting,
"Chad, it's not your fault-"
"Feels like it is" he mumbled, putting his hand against a wall and hanging his head down,
"Don't be silly!" I said, getting up from the couch and walking over to him. I grabbed his face and forced his eyes to meet mine, "Of course it's not your fault! Don't even think like that!" I scolded, "If I'd have just seen the signs or maybe-"
"Please" I choked out, "Don't" I swallowed, "Don't blame yourself, ok?" I put my hand on his cheek. "You've hit him twice now, you realise" I laughed slightly after a few minutes of silence,
"Yeah, well he deserved it" Chad replied,
"Yeah, he did..." I trailed off. He slowly put his two hands on my cheeks and looked into my eyes. He stroked my cheek with his thumb. He stroked away a stray tear on my face that I didn't know had made itself present. He slowly leant down toward me and lightly brushed his lips against mine. I leant into him slightly and kissed him back. He pulled away, resting his forehead on mine,
"I love you, Sonny" he said. My eyes widened slightly at Chad saying...that...to me, of all people,
"I-I love you, too"
