Chapter Four- How to Tell He Likes You
Sonny's POV:
I squinted at the TV as they reported that Chad and I were missing. I never thought of this as missing. I don't want to be missing and I never wanted to be missing.
"Chad Dylan Cooper and Sonny Munroe have been officially filed as missing. On June 24, 2009 the two were not heard from by relatives. Chad's cast mate, Marta Balatico, who was on the Mackenzie Falls company retreat, came back earlier due to illness and found Mr. Cooper absent."
"Who is Marta," I asked Chad after the news report was done.
"She plays Penelope," he turned the television off.
"Do you think that is real? I mean it's TMZ not CBS or a major news channel."
"I don't know," Chad said and laid his head back on the sofa cushion.
"Well, what do we do? I mean my head is swirling with all that is happening."
"Well now, you can go back to sleep. I am going to keep watching TV and find a foremost important news channel and see if we are on there."
"Okay," I got up and went back up to the top of the slide. Once I got back up there I sat down and didn't go back to sleep. I thought. Am I actually thankful I am stuck in here with Chad? No, I'm not I loath Chad. I loath his shimmering blue eyes, his extraordinary blonde hair, and his laid-back calm clothes look. I loath it all. The only want to get out of here because of him. Or do I want to stay in here because of him? That's when I fell asleep.

I woke up slowly and my head was pounding. I got up and found some of Tawni's clothes. I put on a tie dye t-shirt and blue jeans. I found some white socks and put those on. I ran Tawni's pink brush through my hair, wow, she keeps a lotof stuff up here. I slid down a slide and came down to Chad sleeping on the couch. He had the remote in his hand which was dangling down from the couch. I got left over pizza from like five days ago out from the small fridge. I put a piece on a plate for myself and set aside a plate for him.
"Hey," he said as he woke up.
"Hi," I said and sat down on a chair with the pizza. "Yours is over there." He grabbed his plate and sat down on the couch. "Did you find anything on the news," I said between bites.
"Nothing," he flipped on the TV.
"In other news, the rumors are true 16 year old Sonny Munroe and 18 year old Chad Dylan Cooper are missing. Melinda Ross has the rest at the news desk. Melinda?" My mouth dropped open.
"Thank you Matt. The two tweens were left behind for their company retreats, was it a mistake?" They started showing clips from So Random and Mackenzie Falls as she voiced over, "It all started when Marta Balatico came back from Hawaii and found Chad missing. Reports say that she called Mrs. Cooper and informed her. On Sonny's side of the story, the Munroe family was concerned when Sonny didn't come home from work two nights ago. Sonny didn't call or inform them in any way that she wouldn't be home."
"Come here anyone! Why wouldn't they think to come look here," I shouted to the TV.
"I have an idea," Chad got onto the computer. He typed in the Cox website and logged in. He hit 'compose message' and added in everyone he knew.
A friend and I are in the So Random studio. Check every room there, just open the door. The door knob was taken off the door and we are trapped in here. Please find us, this is definitely vital!

"Good idea," after he sent the message I got onto my emailing account and sent the same thing to my family. We both sat back down on the couch and I thought about what I didn't finish thinking about earlier. I took my laptop to the top of the slide. "Okay," I said to myself. I typed how to tell if someone likes you, into the computer.
They give you compliments, often. I thought of the time Santiago Geraldo interviewed me.
"That's why you're my favorite member of So Random," Chad had told me, on camera.
"Really?"
"Yes really. Santiago, you are lucky to be getting this interview, this girl's going places." I came back to reality. Asks you out on a date without other friends. I thought of the time he helped me break up Bitterman and Marshall.
"Then you're going to have to go to Lookout Mountain with me," why would he want me to go with him to Lookout Mountain?
"I'm not going there with you, that's a date place." That's strike two. Okay what else? They touch you often, even if it's the slightest. Any time Chad can get his arms around me, he will. I shut the computer down. I slid down the slide and Chad was watching TV.
"Chad," I asked.
"Yeah?"
"Do you…I mean…uhh…," I sat down on the chair.
"What? Spit it out already."
"Would you consider us friends?"
"Friends?"
"Friends."
"Kind of. Sometimes," I nodded. "Why?"
"Why what?"
"Why would you like to know if we are friends?"
"No reason," I lied. "Do you want to watch a movie," I changed the subject quickly. I put in Confessions of a Shopoholic without checking with him. I sighed as I sat on the couch next to him, he likes me.
