I DO NOT own sonny with a chance or any of the characters!!!!!

Trouble In La La Land

The next morning Chad woke up at 5:00 am. He ran to the other side of the house and knocked loudly on Riley's door.

"Chad, you do know that it's five a.m. right?" Riley's hair was completely messed up and she was in her nightgown.

"Listen, Riley," Chad was talking very fast so Riley wouldn't have time to respond, "Sonny is staying here for the rest of the week, okay? Good. Don't tell mom and dad." And with that he ran back to his room so he wouldn't have to listen to the explosion about to happen.

"WHAT!?" Chad was halfway down the hallway when he heard her yell. She had worked out what he said quicker than he had thought she would. She could still see Chad so, unfortunately, he had no choice to walk back over to her because he couldn't fake not hearing now.

"Chad Dylan Cooper what have you done this time? I think mom and dad will notice the guest room all messed up," She said a bit more calmly.

"Not if I have a week to completely clean it," Chad said.

"Chad, I know you, and you would rather get in trouble than clean the guest room," Riley said while putting her hand on Chad's shoulder in mock sympathy.

"Okay, let me rephrase that. Not if you have a week to completely clean it," Chad said placing his hand on Riley's shoulder.

"Why would I clean it? She's your girlfriend," Riley folded her arms across her chest.

"Because if they find out I'm not the only one who's gonna be in trouble and you hate being in trouble," Chad said with one eyebrow raised. Chad walked away to go get changed and to make breakfast. Sonny woke up to the sweet smell of pancakes and syrup. She got dressed and ran down stairs and saw Chad and Riley sitting at the table. As soon as Sonny entered they both looked around at her. Riley said something to Chad, then got up and walked out of the room. The thing that made Sonny worry wasn't how Riley had walked out of the room or how they turned around quickly when they heard her like they were gossiping about her, it was that neither Chad nor Riley had a smile on their face, but a worrying frown. Sonny sat down next to Chad and started to move her hand towards the plate of pancakes, but suddenly she wasn't so hungry anymore.

"Chad, what's going on?" Sonny looked into Chad's eyes, and he got the message. She was worried about him. For a moment Chad just looked at her, marveling the fact that they were so connected that they didn't need to say a word to each other to convey a message, but that they were so different that they saw life in a way the other never could.

"Chad? Are you there?" Chad had completely zoned out.

"Wha-? Oh right. Everything's fine Sonny," Chad said. He looked away, because he couldn't look Sonny in the eye and tell her a complete lie.

"Chad," Chad looked up into her deep brown eyes again, "Now tell me the truth."

Big mistake.

"I-I don't know what you're talking about," he said looking away from her eyes again. It was killing him to lie to Sonny like that.

"Chad, I know you're lying! You can't look me in the eye! Just tell me the truth already!" Chad had no choice but to tell her. He hated seeing her so hurt and upset. It was like seeing a wounded Mustang. So beautiful, but so distressed. It made Chad's heart sink. She was tearing up a little and one thought occurred to Chad. I'm lying to her. Her boyfriend is lying to her. What kind of conceited jerk am I?

Well, this is interesting. It's starting turn into Chad's POV. I like it this way. Poor Sonny. Her boyfriend is lying to her. What is the truth anyway? I guess you'll have to wait until the next chapter! Hope you liked it!
