A/N: I'm so sorry it took me this long to get this out!
**
Sonny and Chad arrived at the ice rink exactly at one. They walked inside to see Tawni and Nico standing at the counter, already renting their skates. Sonny and Chad walked up to the counter next to them and rented their own skates and after they all put them on, they went onto the ice. At first the stayed together just talking a little. Tawni and Nico were still wary of Chad, since he had been such a jerk to Sonny before, but they were warming up to him a little bit.
After a little while, Nico and Tawni decided to skate ahead together, leaving Sonny and Chad alone.
"Thanks for inviting me Sonny. I know your friends don't really like me." Chad said.
"No problem." Sonny smiled. "And it's not that they don't like you, it's just that how you were to me…" Sonny trailed off.
"Sonny…You don't know how sorry I am about everything…"
"Chad. It's fine. Like I said last night, you've definitely made up for it." Sonny smiled, and then Chad blushed again.
"Okay…" Chad mumbled, looking anywhere but at Sonny.
"Look out!" Chad suddenly yelled. Sonny had been staring at Chad, and she hadn't looked at where she was going. That was a bad idea, seeing as what happened next. Sonny had skated right into the wall, smacking her head on it in the process. Then she fell back onto the ice and lay there, groaning. Smooooooooth.
Chad skidded to a halt next to her.
"Sonny! Are you okay?" Chad's voice was panicked. He knelt down next to her on the ice and put his arm around her shoulders, helping her sit up.
"Ugh…I'm fine." Sonny said, but she could feel a massive headache coming on. She winced as she turned to her head to look at Chad. "Actually, I think I need some Asprin." Chad smiled at her gently before getting to his feet.
"Okay, here." Chad held his hand out for Sonny to grab. She did and he pulled her up. Sonny's head was still pounding and the upward motion didn't help at all. Her skates made her slip and she fell right into Chad's chest. Sonny wrapped her arms around his waist to prevent her self from falling again.
Sonny was blushing hugely now and it didn't help when Chad put his arms around Sonny's waist.
"Are you okay?" Chad asked. Sonny nodded her head and breathed in Chad's scent. She let out a sigh and pulled a little away from him, but he just wrapped his arm around her waist and led her off the ice. Chad made sure Sonny was comfortable on a bench while he went up to the concession stand to get a bottle of water and some Asprin. Tawni and Nico got off the ice but Sonny waved them away.
"Go have fun guys. I think I'm just going to ask Chad for a ride home. I'll text you later." She said. They nodded and said goodbye before going back on the ice hand in hand. Sonny smirked. She would have to talk to Tawni about that later.
Chad came back and sat next to her handing her the water and Asprin. Sonny thanked him gratefully and took them right away. Then she leaned down and tugged off her skates before pulling her regular shoes back on.
"So do you want me to take you home?" Chad asked. He sounded disappointed.
"Yeah…" Sonny mumbled. Chad nodded and changed his shoes quickly before taking both their skates up to the counter. Then he came back for Sonny. He helped her off the bench and hovered over her while they walked outside.
"Chad! I think I'm okay to walk by myself…Whoa!" Sonny spoke too soon. As soon as she had stepped outside she slipped on a patch of ice. She braced her self for yet another collision with a hard, cruel surface but she never felt it. Instead a strong pair of arms caught her. Sonny opened her eyes to see Chad over her smirking.
"You're very clumsy today aren't you Monroe?" Chad said. Sonny blushed as Chad settled her on her feet. Why!!!!!! Then she made her way past him to the car while he trailed behind, laughing.
Once they were in safely in the car without any more incidents, Chad cleared his throat.
"Ummm… Sonny?" Chad sounded really nervous.
"Yeah?" Sonny asked. For some weird reason, she started to get butterflies in her stomach.
"I was wondering if you want to come to my house to watch a movie or something…" Chad trailed off uncertainly. Sonny grinned and nodded. Chad grinned and continued to drive. When they got to Chad's house they hurried inside out of the cold.
When they got into the living room, Chad took off his jacket and threw it over the back of a chair, so Sonny did the same.
"You can just sit on the couch. Do you want anything to drink?" Chad asked.
"Do you have Diet Coke?" Sonny asked. Chad nodded and went into the kitchen. Sonny went over and sat on the couch. She waited nervously for Chad to come back. Then she saw the shelf that held all of Chad's DVDs. She giggled as she saw Twilight.
"What are you laughing at?" Chad asked. Sonny jumped and spun around. Chad was standing right behind her holding two cans of Diet Coke.
"You have Twilight?" Sonny asked incredulously. Chad rolled his eyes.
"It's my moms." Chad explained.
"Sure…" Sonny grinned and grabbed her soda. Chad rolled his eyes again.
"What movie do you want to watch?" Sonny grinned and picked it out, handing it to Chad.
"Shrek 2?" Chad grinned. Sonny smiled and bounced over to the couch. She plopped down right in the middle. Chad went to put the movie in and then he walked over to the couch and sat next to Sonny. Close but not quite touching Sonny. More butterflies erupted in Sonny's stomach. I think I like him! Oh boy!
Halfway into the movie Sonny started to get really tired. She let her head drop onto Chad's shoulder and when he didn't object, she left it there and drifted to sleep.
**
A few hours later Sonny woke up with her head resting on something comfortable and she was covered with a blanket. She lifted her head up to look around and realized that the movie was over and someone had turned the television off. Then she looked at what she was using for a pillow, and once again the butterflies started in her stomach.
Chad Dylan Cooper had his head resting against the arm of the couch, and his arms were loosely draped around Sonny's waist. He looks so cute when he's asleep! Sonny smiled and rested her head back down on Chad's chest, listening to his heart beat.
**
A little while after that, Sonny was shaken awake by Chad. She sat up and rubbed her eyes while Chad got up and took the movie out of the player and put it away.
"Thanks for inviting me over Chad. I had a nice time." Sonny said.
"You were asleep practically the whole time." Chad said, smirking.
"Yeah, well…sorry about that." Sonny mumbled.
"Don't be. It was cute." Chad said. Then he blushed when he realized what he had said. Sonny grinned, looking at her lap to hide her own blush. Then she glanced at her phone and saw the time. 9:30. She sighed.
"I better get home. My mom is expecting me soon." Sonny said. She got up and grabbed her coat. Chad walked her to the door and opened it for her.
"Night, Chad." Sonny smiled at Chad. She was starting to get nervous again.
"Night, Sonny." Chad smiled back and surprised Sonny by pulling her into a hug. As she pulled away, Sonny quickly kissed Chad on the cheek. Then she darted out the door and down the steps.
"See you at school tomorrow!" She yelled over her shoulder. If she hadn't been busy taking out her phone to text Tawni, Sonny would have seen Chad standing there with a huge grin on his face.
