wow...thanks for the many reviews! I wasn't expecting very many... Just wanna say, thanks for reading 3
I'm so completely wiped out from marching band... but I knew that you guys needed something good to finally happen. So, here's Chapter 6:
Chapter 6- My Universe
SPOV
"Sonny!" Zora stood with her hands on her hips.
"I can't, Zora. I can't face him now." I buried my face into a pillow. I was laying on a couch, refusing to go with Zora.
"You are forcing me to take drastic measures." Zora warned.
I ignored her. She grabbed me by my ankles and dragged me off the couch. My shirt came up a bit, causing me to get a rug burn on my stomach. Zora didn't stop.
"Alright, alright! Just let me go!"
"Better get ready. Quickly! We're behind schedule." Zora ordered.
"Alright, sergeant." I muttered.
"I heard that."
I opened the door to enter the commissary. It was pitch black inside. Amy was waiting for me, hand extended. What is going on?
"Enjoy the show, space ranger." Zora saluted and shut the door.
Twinkling lights surrounded me. Scattered glittering stars were lowered down from the ceiling. A song began to play. Amy locked elbows with me. I smiled, a bit embarrassed.
"I will be your tour guide through the warp hole of Chad and Sonny's first year together." She recited.
Oh my gosh! No way... this was Chad's present?
A bright light lit up a door to my right. It was labeled (written with stars) "Our First Date". Amy led me to it. I walked in to find two cardboard cut outs of Chad and me sitting in a Chinese restaurant. There was a button on Chad's hand that read, "try me". I pressed it. Water squirted out of Cardboard Chad and onto Cardboard Sonny. I laughed. I remembered that! After I finished reminiscing in that room, Amy took me back out. Next, a door to my left lit up. IT was marked, "Our First Date Take Two". Inside, a copy of the goofy billboard ( Chad is a Fool for Sonny) was set against the far wall. Again, there were cardboard cut outs of Chad and me... this time looking more elegant. A Table was set between us. On the table, there was sushi with a little note attached. It said " try me ". How creative... Beside us, a bit farther away, there was a cardboard remake of my apartment. The cast of So Random were at the window, looking very upset. I smiled at the memory.
There were many other rooms filled with all of our moments. The first time we went to the beach. The first time we watched fireworks together. The first time we went to an amusement park. The first time we went ice skating. I went through each of them and was dazzled by how extraordinary this was. It was like a time machine. Like being inside a 3D photo album.
At last we came to the final door. The stars named this room "Our First Year Together". Amy opened the door. I walked in. Amy shut the door behind me, staying on the other side. I was alone. I looked around. It was beautiful. I felt like I was standing in space. The whole room was covered in black, with lights and planets to make it look like there were several different solar systems inside the small space. There was a big X in the middle of the floor. I went and stood on it. That's when Chad came in, gorgeous suit and everything. He strode over to me. My eyes stung from the salt of my tears. They dropped down my cheeks like two big faucet leaks. Chad wiped them away with a stroke of his fingers.
"Sonny..."
"Chad, this is so amazing!"
"Well, our one year anniversary couldn't be anything less than perfect and I was making sure it wouldn't be."
"Wow, Chad. You really do dream big."
Chad laughed at that. Then, he took my hands in his and stared into my eyes. A serious look came over his face. "Sonny, do you realize that you are standing precisely in the middle of the room?"
"Yeah...I do. Why am I?"
"Because that' exactly what you are: the center of my universe."
That was so cheesy...yet so cute! "Chad Dylan Cooper, you are my universe."
So, wadjya guys think? Told ya you wouldn't hate me forever!
