Chapter 26-Last Day
Sonny's POV
I sigh on the Sunday night, getting into bed, almost crying. It was just my last night with the Coopers. There were no problems, no fights, and I think Chad, Melanie and his Dad have fixed their issues. Why couldn't it have happened earlier? My last night was the best ever, and I'm so upset. I'm finally going home…to Wisconsin. My Mom's going to leave tomorrow morning, and she'll arrive about lunch. I'll not see Chad, Tawni, Nico, Grady, Zora, Josh, Abby, Chris, Melanie, Mel…wow; I have way too many friends here. I don't want to leave. I don't know where my home is, but it's not Wisconsin, not anymore.
I get up the next morning, teeth brushed, face washed, dressed. I walk down to see the family sat around the table, smiling, laughing. I come down, and they face me, silent.
"Morning, Sonny." Chad says, "Sleep well?"
I nod, but I feel a tear on my cheek and I have to hide myself before anyone makes a big deal about it. I hurry over to the breakfast cabinet, getting out some cornflakes and milk from the fridge. I sit in the spare seat, next to Abby, who giggles as Chad feeds her milk from her bottle. I smile, tickling her cheek.
"I'll miss you, sweetie." I say, and she stares at me, looking slightly confused at my sadness.
"Sonny? Why you crying?" She asks. I quickly wipe the fresh tear away before anyone else notices. Too late.
"Oh, Sonny. Come here." Chad sighs, hugging me tight. "We'll still be OK, right?"
I sigh, sniffling, "I'll miss you, Chad."
"I'll miss you to, m'lady."
I smile. Finally. I've been wanting to hear that nickname used again for months. It's good to hear it again, considering I won't hear it again for who-knows-how-long. I hug Chad tight, and I'm sure I feel something wet on my shoulder.
"Chaddy?" We hear a voice say, and pull away to see Abby holding her arms out. "Can I hug Sonny?"
Chad smiles, sniffing a little. "Sure, kiddo." He picks her up, and passes her to me.
"I'll miss you, baby girl." I say.
"I'll miss you too, Mommy."
I feel another tear as those words are said. I feel so guilty once again. I bet Chad and Josh hate me right now. How dare anyone replace their Mom, right? I look at Chad and Josh, and I'm surprised to see them both smiling.
"It's good that Abby has a good Mom again." Chad says, and I smile.
"Mom? I don't know…"
"Let's think of you as her…adopted Mom." He says, "She deserves a good Mom again."
"You all do." I say, putting Abby back in her chair, "And I think Melanie would be the perfect one for this family. You'll be complete again."
I expect Chad to complain, resist, but instead, he smiles, nods.
"Yeah, I'd like that." He says. "Too bad you won't be here to watch her." He sighs, and I nod.
"I wish I could." I say, as one more tear rolls down my cheek. I sigh. "Lat day at work." I say, getting up, "Don't wanna be late."
I arrive at the prop house to a room full with people, and silence. Tawni smiles on seeing me, a simple, sad smile. I'm suddenly surrounded in people in a soft hug from all my cast, and I start to cry once again.
"I'll miss you guys so much." I say.
"We'll miss you too, Sonny." Zora says. "It won't be the same without you."
"Yeah, I mean, who's gonna be the second check it out girl?" Tawni asks.
"Who's gonna come up with all the good sketches?" Nico adds.
"Who's gonna make us all happy on down days?" Grady says, and I smile.
"You guys will be fine without me." I say, "I'm sure you will."
"No, we won't." Tawni says, almost crying, "Who knows what it's gonna be like without you?"
I laugh, "Exactly how it was before I came, remember?" I ask, and Zora laughs.
"I don't think anyone can remember the time before you, Sonny." She says, smiling, and I smile too.
"I'll miss you guys." I repeat.
"And we'll miss you." Tawni says, "Sonshine."
I laugh, before realising something.
"Chad!" I say, "I have to go, he wanted to talk to me before I went. Sorry."
I leave them behind, my best friends ever. I'll miss them like crazy, and this is it. For now, at least.
Goodbye, dreams. Nice knowing you.
:'(
