A Thing Called Love
Chapter 7
Hit me like a ray of sun
Burning through my darkest night
You're the only one that I want
Think I'm addicted to your light
I swore I'd never fall again
But this don't even feel like falling
Gravity can't begin to pull me back to the ground again
Halo - Beyonce
The moment was beautiful. It was more than anything Sonny had ever hoped for.
She believed it now.
She believed that she really did love him. It was official.
He finally stole the key to her heart.
She hoped he didn't lose it.
He bent in to kiss her again when something interupted him. Sonny's stomach growled.
She started laughing. He joined in hysterically.
Way to ruin a moment.
He stood up and pulled her up as well.
"Let's go. It's getting dark." he chuckled softly. The sun was almost completely down. The atmosphere was now more cool and their surroundings seemed blue. They rollerbladed back to the RENTALS station and took back their shoes. The old man wished them a goodnight as they walked away.
Sonny smiled to herself. Chad was so sweet. It was as if he was Mackenzie.
Only better.
They got into his car and they started to drive. Breath Me by Sia was playing on his CD. It was such a beautiful and romantic song. It made her cry.
He pulled over. Again.
Chad was surprised. Why was she crying now? It was kinda weird...he thought the date went fine. Great, actually.
"Sonny what's wrong?" he asked concerned. She smiled at him through the tears.
"I think I'm in love with you Chad."
That was it? She was crying because she loved him? She made it seem like it was a bad thing. But her smile told him otherwise.
Despite the icy wind blowing harshly against them, him body felt warm and his heart beated faster.
Sonny finally admitted it. She was in love with him.
It started raining. Pouring. She laughed now.
Comedians he thought smiling.
She pulled him close to her and starting kissing him. She'd always wanted to kiss in the rain. Why not now?
The rain drenched the leather seats of his car. Damnit. he thought. The rain is ruining Cher. (Cher was the name of his car. Yes. He named his cars.) But the intensity of Sonny's passionate kiss left him feeling weak and he forgot about Cher.
Sonny was all that mattered to him.
They continued for what seemed like an eternity of bliss but he had to stop the kiss. He broke away and gave her a peck on the lips quickly. He had to get the roof to cover Sonny or else she'd catch a cold. He clicked a button and the roof slid smoothly and blocked them from the pouring rain.
"You're probably hungry. Let's go back to my place. We can cook something together." he suggested.
Sonny looked at him. "You cook? I didn't know you could cook."
"Please Sonny, there are so many things you don't know about me." he smirked at her.
"Suree." she smiled. Then what escaped her was a high pitched sneeze. Then came another sneeze. Chad laughed and took off his jacket, wrapping it around her snuggly. She smiled at him then watched the drops of rain slide down smoothly down th window. Her head rested against the window and her body was turned to face him.
Didn't that position feel awkward? Chad thought gazing at her. His attention turned back to the road.
"Chad?"
"Yeah?"
"Do you like the rain?"
"I'm not sure. It's always so sunny here in LA. I guess I'm not that used to the rain. But every one in a while, it's nice." he smiled and asked, "What about you? Do you like the rain?"
"Mmhmm." she smiled sweetly as her eyelids fell and she went into sleep. Her hair fell into her eyes. And Chad couldn't stop looking at her. Thank god they were at a red light.
Slowly, he pushed her damp hair out of her closed eyes and tucked it behind her ear.
He turned off the music, not wanting to wake her. He drove in silence, the only sound he could hear was the pitter patter of the rain and Sonny's quiet, gentle breathing.
When the reached his home, Chad parked the car and nudged Sonny to wake her up.
"Sonny. Wake up."
"Go away mom. I'm sleeping." she mumbled.
"Sonny we're here."
"Five more minutes."
He tickled her and that woke her up. She started laughing.
"Stop! Stop that!" she laughed and she wiped the sleep out of her eyes. He got out of the car and hurried over to Sonny's side of the door, opening it for her.
He locked Cher and held Sonny close to him. She was cold.
Sonny's eyes were huge at the sight of his house. Woah. It was...so big. So fancy looking.. It looked really expensive.
He smiled at her expression and they walked into his house. They took of their shoes and he looked at her observing every detail of his house.
"C'mon." he pulled her along into the kitchen. "So what do you wanna eat?"
She looked around his kitchen, opening drawers and cabinets.
"Pasta." she smiled. She was big on carbohydrates and they didn't affect her weight that much. He shrugged and they boiled some water.
She took out a box of spaghetti from one of his drawers.
"Let's make the sauce!" she smiled. He was surprised at how energetic considering she slept for the duration of their car ride.
"I have some sauce in the fridge alread-"
"No! It's more fun making it from scratch."
He shrugged and they cut up some vegetables. She opened a can of tomato paste and boiled it in a pot.
Soon they finished cooking and and she spooned the pasta out onto a plate.
"Oh! I forgot something." she exclaimed.
"What'd you forget?" he asked. The fragrance of the homemade spaghetti wafted into his nose. It smelled really good. His mouth was watering and he wanted to eat right away.
She told him to go into the living room first and wait for her. He nodded suspiciously and did as he was told. A few minutes later she entered the dining room with a big bowl of egg salad.
It was, after all, her specialty.
He raised his eyebrows amused.
"Really Sonny? Really?"
She smiled and dug into her spaghetti and egg salad. It tasted delicious, and she was starving. She looked around Chad's house. In every room there was at least on wall that was just a window. The clear pane of glass took up the entire wall.
She turned up the plasma tv and the weather network was on.
"Folks, it is strongly suggested that you stay indoors and do not go out. We are expecting a dangerous storm on the way and it would not be safe for anyone to go out into this weather." the weatherlady said.
Just then there was a thunder and lightning.
A screeching cat jumped on to Chad's lap.
"Aww, Chad you have a cat?" she smiled "It's so cute!"
"Yeah but Fluffy's scared of thunder and lightning." he explained petting the furry cat.
"Fluffy? Really Chad? You couldn't be more creative than that?" she smirked.
"Fluffy's a cute name." he said in defense. They finished their dinner satisfied.
"Weather warning. A mild cyclone is hitting LA. Stay indoors at all times until further notice." the weatherlady said.
Then it hit her. If she couldn't go out she's couldn't go home.
"Chad."
"What?"
"I can't go home in this storm.."
Slowly he realized what she meant. Something inside him screamed with excitement. Sonny would have to stay over at his place.
She sneezed again.
"Here, why don't you go take a hot bath or something to warm yourself up. I have some old clothes I don't wear anymore, you can change into those." he stood up and led her into his room.
She was hesitant to follow. Did she want to stay at Chad's place? The idea made knots in her stormach.
"This is my room" he told her, after walked up a flight of glass stairs.
They walked into his room. She took in every detail of it. It was a really big room. It was almost the size of her apartment. The walls were painted light blue but was tinted with white.
In one part of his room there was a fancy glass desk and a black leather chair. On top of the desk was his MacBook and some other random things.
On the other side of his room and a big sound system and a huge video game station. He had endless stacks of videogames.
By the window/wall was his kind sized bed. He had soft looking blue sheets and right next to his bed was a unique nightstand and next to that was a shelf full of books. She walked to the bookshelf as he went into his huge closet to find her some clean, dry clothes. Most of his books were about philosophy and the meaning of life and living.
That was so not what she expected of Chad. And his room was so...neat.
Of course, on the bottom row there was a row of comic books. On another row there were some other random novels.
Directly across from his bed was a huge tv and there was a fridge next to it. She guessed it held drinks or something.
He emerged from the closet with an oversized t-shirt and some worn out sweats. He pointed to the bathroom in his room.
"That's the bathroom. I'm gonna be downstairs if you need me." he left awkwardly and stumbled down the stairs.
I'm just as nervous as you are. she thought.
His washroom was as big as her kitchen. God she felt so small next to him. There was a marbletop counter with a strange looking sink thing. It also had well, the basics. A toilet, a bathtub, a shower thing.
Everything was really pretty and looked pretty new. Except for his dirty clothes on one pile on the floor.
That kinda threw off the clean look.
She unzipped her still wet dress awkwardly. Was she actually about to take a bath in Chad Dylan Cooper's own personal washroom? That was just bizarre.
Just a day ago they hated each other. (Sort of.) Now she was going to spend the night over at his place.
She stepped into the bathrub and turned on the tap releasing steaming hot water that soon filled the big bathtub. She sank under the water and felt it take over her. It washed away all her thoughts and she was in there relaxed.
Chad flipped channels on his tv bored. He couldn't believe that Sonny was actually going to stay over at his place. It was so unexpected.
8:35 pm
A yawn escaped him and he snuggled next to Fluffy. This was honestly the best date he's ever been on.
