ABC of Seduction

Summary: "I know how men operate and I can prove it. If you want it to work out with this guy than you have to do exactly as I say." "What if doesn't work?" "Then I'll quit." "You're really that confident?" Channy. Rated T for a reason.

Chapter 2

"So what do I need to know?" Sonny asked sitting at a table on Arcade. She brought along a yellow notebook and a pink pen to take notes, and was now looking at Chad with interest.

"A lot." Chad replied coolly. He took a seat across from Sonny and grinned.

A waitress noticed her new customers, and walked to them to take their order. Chad asked for a cappuccino, and Sonny decided on a strawberry smoothie. As soon as the waiter left their table Chad turned his attention back to Sonny and smirked.

"Chad…" she called making gestures with her hands which clearly meant 'proceed'. "You're a little slow you know." she commented.

Chad frowned. "Well first rule: never criticize."

Sonny rolled her eyes. "Ever hear of a thing called constructional criticism?"

"Men are incapable of growing, changing or progressing. We hate to be criticized. If you're constantly criticizing us we'll think you're a pain in the butt."

Sonny sighed and wrote down 'Do not critique' in her notebook. "Okay… What's the second rule?" she asked.

"Laugh at whatever he says." He replied turning to check if his cappuccino was ready yet. When he saw it wasn't he grumbled something about the service and then turned back to Sonny.

"What if it isn't funny?" Sonny asked. Sonny knew that while she was an actress, she was a comedian first, and she couldn't make herself laugh at something that wasn't funny.

"That's irrelevant." Chad replied simply.

The waitress placed Chad's cappuccino and Sonny's smoothie on the table and left. Chad took a sip of his cappuccino and Sonny nodded, feeling confused. Chad placed his cup back leaving a mustache of foam around his lips. Sonny's confused expression turned into an amused smile and a small laugh escaped from her lips.

"That was perfect!" Chad complimented, "True or fake?"

Sonny took a sip of her smoothie and set it down licking her lips tasting like strawberry.

"You'll never know." she replied smiling slyly. "Oh, and you might want to clean your 'mustache'." she informed.

Chad rolled his eyes as a very discreet shade of pink invaded his cheeks and took a napkin from the dispenser on the middle of the table. Sonny smiled and took another sip of her smoothie and Chad from his cappuccino.

"So what do I need to know now?" she asked.

"Third rule: men are very visual."

"So?" Sonny shrugged.

"Finish your smoothie 'cause we need to go shopping." Chad replied smirking.


"What are we doing here?" Sonny asked recognizing that part of the city.

They passed an iron arrow with 'Rodeo Dr' written on it. Sonny looked confused at Chad as he drove his shiny silver convertible through Rodeo Drive, the most famous shopping street in LA.

"I told you, men are very visual." Chad replied.

"Yeah I got that, I just want to know what are we doing in Rodeo Drive." Sonny told him crossing her arms.

"You need to change your look." He said shrugging and parked his car.

"My look is just fine." Sonny argued unbuckling the seatbelt.

Chad let out a small laugh. "Believe me...it's not." He told her exiting the car.

Sonny stared at him in disbelief and exited the car letting out a frustrated sigh.

"So... I was thinking about going to that store first." Chad continued pointing at a shop in the end of the street.

Sonny followed his finger and cocked an eyebrow.

"Chad," she stated slowly, "that's a lingerie shop."

He smirked and turned to her.

"I know. It's the most important part of your clothes."

"I refuse to buy lingerie with you, perv." Sonny replied crossing her arms.

Chad took off his sunglasses so she could see his narrowed eyes. "Fine but if Andrew asks out, he'll never sleep with you." Chad told her.

"I don't want to sleep with him! I'm sixteen Chad!" Sonny spat socked.

He rolled his eyes and said, "Whatever Sonny... Look, if you don't want to buy lingerie right now we can start with other type of clothes."

Sonny nodded.

"Thanks." she replied smiling.

Chad shrugged and led her to another shop. Inside he started looking around for 'good' clothes while Sonny looked around uneasy. A shop assistant came to them smiling.

"How can I help you sir?" She asked smiling.

"We'll need mini dresses, skinny jeans and low cut tops for my friend." Chad told the lady smiling back.

Sonny looked at him like he had two heads. The shop assistant nodded and left them alone. Sonny grabbed his arm and looked up at him.

"What do you think you're doing?" she asked.

"Making you the girl of Andrew's dreams." Chad replied smiling proudly. "Now... You're sort of an attractive girl but you're unreachable."

The girl came back with a big pile of clothes and handed them to Chad.

"Why am I unreachable?" Sonny asked as Chad pushed her into the fitting rooms.

"Because you're a prude." He replied simply, throwing the clothes into the fitting room and closing the curtain.

"No, I'm not!" Sonny argued.

"Yeah? So why didn't you ever worn a bikini in the studio?" Chad asked crossing his arms.

"Because that's stupid." Sonny replied matter-of-factly dressing a pair of skinny jeans. "Why would I wander around in bikini in the studio?"

"See! That's exactly my point!"

Sonny finished dressing the top and exited the fitting room looking confused.

"What you just said doesn't make sense." Se told him but Chad ignored her.

His eyes scanned every inch of her body making Sonny blush. She couldn't believe Chad, Chad Dylan Cooper was shamelessly checking her out and she couldn't do anything about that.

"You look hot." He finally said looking at her straight in her eyes smirking, "I guess the skinny jeans really work."

Sonny looked at him for a few seconds as he checked her out again.

"What do you mean?" Sonny asked.

"Skinny jeans are all about the curvature of your butt. Yours looks really good in those." Chad explained.

"Did you just compliment my butt?" She replied smiling.

Chad didn't reply and just looked at her.

"Yeah... I sort of did... What wrong with me?"

Sonny laughed and entered the fitting room to try the other clothes.


They descended Rodeo Drive side by side, both with bags in hands since Sonny couldn't carry them all.

"Rule number four." Chad said out of the blue.

Sonny turned to him.

"Never talk about your problems because men don't really listen or care." He finished.

"Some men care." Sonny argued.

Chad rolled his eyes and put his sunglasses on.

"No. Some pretend to care." He corrected.

Sonny looked over at him cocking an eyebrow.

"When we ask 'how are you doing?' it's a code to 'let me kiss you right now'." Sonny wrinkled her nose but Chad continued, "I know you think Andrew is above that, but trust me...he's a guy. Even if he's remotely into you I'm sure he has thought how it would be if he slept with you."

"I love how you assume that every guy is as perverse as you are." She commented rolling her eyes.

Chad smirked. "Oh, I don't assume. I know."

On the next five minutes they walked in silence until they reached the car. There was something bothering her.

"You've asked me several time how was I doing." Sonny said buckling her seatbelt.

"So?" Chad asked turning the ignition on.

"A while ago you said that was a code to 'let me kiss you right now'." she explained "Did that mean you wanted to kiss me?"

Chad was caught out off guard but his smirk never left his face. "Sonny, funny funny little Sonny," he began in a teasing tone, "I'm Chad Dylan Cooper. If I want to kiss a girl, I just go and kiss her. I don't need to use codes." He finished.

Sonny nodded and Chad drove out the parking space.
