Chapter 8: Unwell

Chad's POV

All day
Staring at the ceiling
Making friends with shadows on my wall
All night
Hearing voices telling me
That I should get some sleep
Because tomorrow might be good for something

I woke up the next day after the party with a headache. Do I really have to go to work today?

RRRRIIIIIIIIING!! Ugh. Who is it now?

I let it ring. Don't care if its Sonny, don't care if its anyone important.


Hold on
I'm feeling like I'm headed for a
Breakdown
I don't know why

Ultimately I made the decision to come to work. When I got there, the first person I saw was none other than Sonny Munroe.

"Sonny."

"Chad." She smirked.

She walked off, finding Tawni and wearing some freaky costume. Anyways, it was almost 8, and I had to get on the set soon.

I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell
I know, right now you can't tell
But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see
A different side of me
I'm not crazy, I'm just a little impaired
I know, right now you don't care
But soon enough you're gonna think of me
And how I used to be
Me

By the time the day was over I had exerted a PERFECT plan! Make a Chad Dylan Cooper movie! Of course, it was genius!

The next day was auditions for the So Randoms…this would be…boring. Hmm. Oh look, its them. Whoop tee doo. And Sonny embarrassing herself I see. Hmm.

"I'm making a movie about me," I told them. They insisted that I use THEM as the So Randoms. "Okay. Except Sonny." Diva......."You're going to have to audition."

I texted my friend Selena Gomez to play Sonny, just incase Miss Diva went all crazy on me. And I made the right choice....or did I?

Talking to myself in public
Dodging glances on the train
I know
I know they've all been talking 'bout me
I can hear them whisper
And it makes me think there must be something wrong
With me

I don't know if I made the right decision, first Sonny's going all rebellious and has anger issues (though its not a surprise...) and now Selena's suggesting that I LIKE Sonny. Hah. Um No...

Filming.

It was that scene where Sonny marches over here at Mackenzie Falls to yell at me. And Selena kinda changed...the scene...causing Sonny to get even more angry than she already is...

Out of all the hours thinking
Somehow
I've lost my mind
I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell
I know, right now you can't tell
But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see
A different side of me

Well really, I don't know. Selena's doing a good job, Sonny's trying to convince Selena of...I don't even know.

"What was that?" I said, seeing Sonny walk away.

"Oh, I think she's just upset of how much you like her." Selena replies. Excuse me???

"Oh..what..I don't like Sonny, no."

"Chad, you and Sonny may be good at playing characters, but you're horrible at playing yourselves."

NO SHE DID NOT JUST...

I'm not crazy, I'm just a little impaired
I know right now you don't care
But soon enough you're gonna think of me
And how I used to be
I been talking in my sleep
Pretty soon they'll come to get me
Yeah, they're taking me away

More filming.

We filmed and all that stuff, Sonny interrupting every five seconds...ugh.

"CUT!"

"Ok, would you..."

Some more conversation, then Selena said something.

"What was I thinking? You two should never be together!"

THANK YOU!

"...she thinks she's some wizard"

"With her magic wizard beans"

"Take that!"

....then something caused Sonny and I to actually...agree?

"If I want to like Sonny then I will"

"If I want to like Chad then I will"

"If I want to think Sonny has pretty hair then I will!"

"Yeah, if I want to think Chad has sparkly eyes then I will!"

OH MY GOSH. WE ACTUALLY AGREED. I AM GOING CRAZY.

I'm not crazy, I'm just a little unwell
I know, right now you can't tell
But stay awhile and maybe then you'll see
A different side of me
I'm not crazy I'm just a little impaired
I know, right now you don't care
But soon enough you're gonna think of me

"That's it! I give up! You two are PERFECT FOR EACH OTHER!!"

"Wait does this mean you're not going to me in my movie?"

"I don't have to do this! I was in CAMP HIP HOP!"

"Aww, she seems nice. I should call her."

"What, you're going to be BFF's with Selena Gomez?"

"It could happen."

"So.."

"So...you really think I have pretty hair?"

uh-oh. "I dunno...you really think I have sparkly eyes?"

"I dunno...well one of them is..."

Finally, we came to the compromise that she would play Sonny.

And how I used to be
Hey, how I used to be
How I used to be, yeah
Well I'm just a little unwell
How I used to be
How I used to be

I decided to go over to the Randoms prop house to watch my movie, instead, Camp Hip-Hop was on, and it was waay better...

"Sonny?" I said, after the movie was over.

"Yeah, Chad?"

"Can I talk to you?"
