I looked around trying to find an exit. What was I thinking! Were on a boat, there's no exit! Wait, Chad! I looked over to where he was standing. I took a deep breath. "Here goes nothing," I mumbled and darted threw the crowd. I pushed past people. "Chad!" The music was so loud, he couldn't hear me. I was suddenly flying through the air. I landed on the ground and whipped my head around to see who tripped me. Dakota stood there smiling. I glared at her and felt myself being lifted off the ground. Two security guards held me. "It was an accident!" They walked towards Chad. I saw Chad talking to a girl about my age with curly brown hair.

"Mr. Cooper, we found a girl with stolen property on her. Should we throw her in the jail or make her walk the plank," one of the security men joked.

"One minute Ella," Chad said to the girl. My heart dropped. That- that was Ella. I looked at the floor. I would rather walk the plank then be here right now. I looked up slightly to see Chad still facing the other direction. "Hm, you could…" He turned around and raised his eyebrows when he saw me. I let my head fall again. "Leave her right here." The security men dropped me to the ground. He smirked when I looked him in the eyes.

"Mr. Cooper I don't think it is right to favor a criminal just because she is a girl."

"Oh this isn't just any girl, this is my girlfriend." I looked towards Ella and she seemed unfazed. Did she know about the fake relationship, was she ok with it? "And I highly doubt she would be able to attempt any major crime." I slightly smiled.

"We think she has your cell phone." Chad smile got wider.

"So that's where it diapered too." He held out his hand and I dug around in my pocket. I felt the cold plastic at my fingertip and it sent chills down my spine. I handed it to Chad. "Now, what are you doing with my cell phone?"

"You dropped it when you ran into Tawni yesterday and she told me to give it to you and I… forgot," I explained. I cringed. I hate lying.

"So it was all just a big misunderstanding." He smiled at the security men, they shrugged and walked away. I studded my shoes. Did they always have a black streak on the side? Chad cleared his throat and I looked up. Ella's bright smile suddenly faded. "This is Ella." Chad motioned his hand towards her. I forced a small smile when she held out her hand.

"I'm Sonny," I said quietly and shook her hand. The smile reappeared on her face.

"Yeah, Chad talks about you all the time. I'm such a big fan of your show." she said. He did? She is? I looked over at Chad and he blushed looking at the floor. A small smile was on his lips. I looked up at Ella. Who is she and what's going on?

I looked back up at Sonny. She looked confused. She eyed Ella like she was someone she had met before and she was trying to remember where. Then she looked at me and our eyes locked. There was something hidden behind those chocolate brown eyes and I was determined to find out what. "Um, would you like to go watch the sunset," I asked. I broke our gaze and looked at Ella. "If you don't mind."

"Not at all," she said and smiled walking away. I looked back at Sonny and held out my hand. She looked at my hand for a second before taking it. I smiled and walked to the stairs. We went up to the third floor and sat on the seats by the side of the boat. I looked at Sonny. Her hair blew in the wind as she stared out at the sunset.

"Sonny?" She looked at me and I could have sworn I saw tears in her eyes. Emotions spread throughout me. Then I said the stupidest thing that came to my mind. "Are you having a good time?" A small smile appeared on her lips, but I knew her well enough to know it was completely fake.

"Yeah," she almost whispered. I took hold of her hand and stared straight in her eyes. Her eyes stared back and glistened in the setting sunlight.

"What's wrong Sunshine?" She looked down and opened her mouth about to talk. My phone vibrated in my pocket, but I ignored it.

"I, well- It's just…" My phone vibrated five more times. I surrendered and took it out of my pocket. Unknown Number. I clicked the screen. Chad-Come over by me. I need you to do something- Mr. Condor I looked up at Sonny, she looked at me. Her eyes full of tears, threatening to fall down her cheeks at any moment. Mr. Condor can wait. My phone vibrated again. I clicked the screen. Chad-Now!-Mr. Condor.

"I-I'm sorry, I have to go." I got up and let her hand slide out of mine.
