Author's note: Woop! On to the moment of truth buahahaha! I've kind of thought of an ending for my story so it won't be as disjointed as it was before. But without further ado here is chapter 6! YES!

Sonny glanced down at her once clean plaid shirt and jeans. Her outfit was covered in fake, corn syrup blood. She concluded there was not enough time to take a shower before she spoke to Chad. Her cleanliness would have to wait. She merely took a rag and wiped the red liquid off her neck and went to Chad's dressing area.

"What'd you want to talk about, Chad?" Sonny attempted sounding threatening but her body was too tired to allow it.

"Who was that guy you took to your party?" Chad asked while looking at himself in the mirror.

"What?" the question was such a shock to her. "Um. His name was Ira. Why?"

"No reason. Look, Sonny. I like you and I'm sorry I ruined your sketch. I just don't want you to be mad at me, which I can kind of already tell you are." Chad looked away from his reflection and looked Sonny in the face.

"Uh. Are you okay, Chad? We're not being filmed, are we?" Sonny looked around for the hidden cameras.

"Of course I'm fine. I'm Chad Dylan Cooper afterall." Chad smiled broadly. "And no we're not being filmed."

"Wow, then Chad that was really nice. Surprisingly nice." Sonny beamed. "I like you too, so let's call it a truce?"

"Agreed."

"Great. So I want to ask you a question." Chad nodded, signaling her to go on. "Why'd you kiss me?"

"The sketch needed work, Munroe." He grinned slyly. "I'll catch you later, Sonny."

"What just happened?" Sonny asked herself after Chad had left.

She shrugged and retreated back to her vacated dressing room. Dakota had left some time ago. Sonny just needed to tidy her things.

"Tawni. Say I figuratively, hypothetically liked someone like ... say Chad. What do you think Nico, Grady and Zora would say. And you too of course. What would you say?" Sonny asked the blonde.

"We'd probably burn you at the stake." Tawni said in a bored voice.

"Oh my gosh. Really?" Sonny was surprised by the blunt answer.

"Of course not, silly. I've always known you liked each other, Sonny, since the first day you met him. You're the one who doesn't seem to know." Tawni rolled her eyes and continued brushing her hair.

"What? Girl please. I don't like Chad," Sonny said in an octave higher than her usual speaking range.

"Right. And I'm ugly. Hmph!" Tawni turned back to her refelction. "Don't insult me, Sonny."

"Well, then what do I do?" Sonny asked.

"Tell him. Duhhhh." Tawni said in her bored valley girl voice.

"Okay. I think I will." Sonny was suddenly empowered and energized. She was completely ready to take on Chad Dylan Cooper. She marched to the door with her head held high.

"You should probably -."

"Shower. Yes I know." Sonny finished Tawni's statement. She still had corn syrup all over her.

Sonny got a chance to think while she cleaned herself. She planned some of what she wanted to say and what she definately did not want to divulge. Once she was all done and dressed, she took a deep breath and headed to the Falls right up to Chad's private dressing room. She knocked twice but no one answered. "Wow, it would be my luck that he's not here," Sonny thought to herself.

She knocked a few more times but still no one answered. She gave up and decided to ask someone who would know.

"Hey, Portlyn. Is Chad around?" She asked sweetly.

"No. He went to dinner with the new Mckenzie Falls girl, Amber." Portlyn said Amber's name with disgust. Evidently Sonny wasn't the only one who liked Chad.

"Oh.' Sonny said trying to hide her disappointment. "So you know when he'll be back."

"What am I, his keeper? I don't know when he'll be back with his stupid little girlfriend." Portlyn fumed.

"Girlfriend?" Sonny asked. She ignored Portlyn's disrespect.

"Yeah. They're dating now apparently. Now you should leave. We're doing actual work over here." Portlyn pointed to the door.

Sonny was too upset to fight with Portlyn. She'd deal with her another day. Sonny could just not wrap her head around the fact that Chad had spoken to her so sweetly that day but he had a girlfriend.

She decided to simply leave him a text message that read:

"I came over to basically spill my guts to you but I see you're on a date. I just can't read you Chad. You're too hard to figure out. So I guess I'll see you around. -Sonny."

She pressed send and exited the building to go back to her own. It was a dark, starless night. There was a soft breeze but it was warm and pleasant. Sonny breathed in the rich, Summer air and sighed.

A noise to her left alerted her. She turned her head and was met with the flash of a camera. It was the first time she'd ever seen paparazzi at the studio.

Chad and presumably Amber walked up hand in hand and cut through a few paparazzi to go back to the Falls. Sonny sighed again and went back to the prop house to avoid being photographed anymore with the hurt expression on her face.

Chad texted back about five minutes after she got back to So Random. The text said:

"No. Sonny I'm so sorry. I can explain everything. My publicist told me to date Amber. It's not real. Just call me please if you're not mad at me. -Chad."

Sonny read it and threw the phone Chad had given her at the wall. It hit it hard and fell to the ground with a thud. She didn''t believe anything he said anymore. He said one thing and did another. It just wasn't worth it. If she had learned anything, Sonny had learned not to gamble with her heart. And she planned not to, especially on Chad Dylan Cooper's account.

"You're an idiot, Sonny Munroe," Sonny said to herself and sighed again.

And the tension builds. muahahaha. I know you wanted them to get together in this chapter but that was too easy for me. I have a cute ending worked out anyway =D. Tell me what you think.
