Next chapter!

Thank you for the review LoudestOfAllSilences, who was the only one out of 114 people who reviewed… reviews are a great way to get me to update you know… :P Anyways though, thank you!

By the way, I somehow managed to disable the feature where fanfiction emails your reviews and PMs and such to you. Does anyone know how to reset that, so ff sends those emails again? Help would be much appreciated.

He stared at the screen.

I want to meet you…

He wanted to say yes, more than anything, because she had been the person who made him feel better when nobody else could…

But what about internet safety? When someone you meet online asks you to meet them, your immediate reaction is always supposed to be to refuse. He knew nothing about her… well except all her inner thoughts and feelings.

I want to meet you…

But he was Chad Dylan Cooper; he couldn't just meet someone randomly, not knowing if they were an obsessed fan…not everyone was such a big fan though, he could take the chance.

I want to meet you… the one person who made me feel better when nobody else could.

What could really happen if he met her? In that moment, he knew exactly what he needed to do.

Sonny took a sip of her water and placed it on her desk. She was nervously fidgeting, staring at the screen. How much time had passed? It must have been at least ten minutes by now. If he was sitting at his computer, then why was it taking him so long to respond? Oh wait; it had only been three minutes. Maybe he hadn't even gotten her email yet. But what if he did, and just didn't want to answer? Now it was four minutes ago. With every increased minute, the chances that he would reply decreased. What if he thought she was crazy? She needed to do some immediate damage control.

You know what, actually, come to think of it, that's a crazy idea, just ignore my last message.

She was about to press send, when her phone rang. She reached across the computer, grabbing the phone from the charger. She glanced at the caller id: just a telemarketer. As she reached to put the phone back, her sleeve caught on the glass. It seemed to fall in slow motion, as she quickly tried to push it out of the way. The spill only narrowly missed the computer, and she breathed a sigh of relief, but her glass still hit the keyboard, managing to crush the restart button. Crossing her fingers that her computer would be alright, she watched with baited breath as her laptop rebooted. She reopened her browser and prepared to retype her previous message, but instead found another waiting in her inbox.

Sure. You live near Condor Studios, right? How does five o'clock tomorrow in Condor Park sound? :)

I'll be sitting under the big oak tree, at the bottom of the hill, next to the bridge.

Her nervousness evaporated in moments. It was amazing how this guy could make her emotions do a complete 180 with just a few words.

Sounds great, I can't wait. :)

I'll be wearing a red coat, you can't miss it.

Sonny skipped through the halls, hoping to make a quick stop at her dressing room before she met with lovestinks124. She would finally learn his name, and could stop calling him that. Once again though, she found herself on the floor, looking at a very familiar blonde star, who found himself in a similar position.

He glanced at his watch, and almost seemed to reach his hand out to her to help her up, but after he realized what he was doing, he quickly withdrew his hand. "Oops, sorry about that. I should have been watching where I was going. I'm just a little nervous about a… meeting I don't want to miss."

Sonny's eyes popped open. He had just apologized to her, and it wasn't even all his fault in the first place! She gapped for a moment, but quickly managed to catch herself. "Oh no, don't worry about it, we were both not being very careful. We seem to have a habit of crashing into each other like that, don't we?"

The two shared a casual laugh, and quickly said their goodbyes when Sonny mentioned that she really should get going. She turned to see his figure retreating, and quickly called out "Good luck at your meeting!"

Chad's eyes sparkled as he thanked her and turned around again. Just as she saw him disappear behind the next corner, she glanced at her watch. It was 4:58! She only had two minutes to run to her dressing room, grab her coat and meet her mysterious friend! She rushed through the halls, quickly ducked into her room and took the back entrance to exit Condor Studios. She slowed down as she climbed the hill, butterflies returning to her stomach.

As she reached the top, she took a deep breath, and when she had mustered up the courage, she looked at the oak tree. There was only one person standing below the tree, glancing nervously at his watch, with the same tense expression she had seen only minutes ago on his face. And suddenly, in her mind, it clicked, and everything fell into place.

Comments? Thoughts? Suggestions? Please review :D

This story will probably be finishing up next chapter. I'm aiming for a final chapter and a epilogue, hopefully to be uploaded on the weekend. :)
