Afraid

He'll never admit it. Never ever ever. He's Chad Dylan Cooper, for crying out loud! He is fearless.

Except...maybe for when it comes to spiders.

They're just not normal. They're creepy and crawly and unnatural.

But when Chad Dylan Cooper gets a terrified call from Sonny Monroe, pleading with him to come kill the spider lurking in the corner of her dressing room, Chad Dylan Cooper bucks up and forgets about his fear of spiders. He struts over to her dressing room, rolls his eyes, and stomps on the spider before he can scream like a little girl. And the sparkle that returns to her eyes, the wide grin that spreads across her face, the hug she ends up giving him, the way she calls him her hero...it all makes it worth it.

Because he's Chad Dylan Cooper. And he will always be Sonny Monroe's hero.
