Disclaimer: My mom said I don't own Sonny with a Chance. So I guess I don't.
Hola, amigos! I had to update, because I had no homework and I'm so excited for where this story is leading. I think you'll be pleased with this chapter!
SPOV
I woke up smiling. Tonight I would be Chad's date! As stalkerish as that sounds, I was that excited. It's funny, I hadn't realized how much I really liked Chad until Jason started hurting me. Interesting….. ugh, I'm just glad he's gone for the week.
Anyway, I hopped out of bed and winced. My ankle still hurt from a sprain Jason had given me a week ago. I slowly made my way over to the bathroom and showered.
When I was done with that, I dressed in a yellow tshirt with a sun on it and blue skinny jeans with my black boots and left the house. I had left my things for the party at the studio since Tawni was going to help me get ready.
You know, I'm sure Chad's just going to ignore me the whole night. I shouldn't even be excited. But I am. That's the problem.
I sighed as I pulled into the parking lot. Chad was leaning against the hood of his convertible, waiting. For me? I was about to find out.
I got out of my truck. "Hey, Chad."
He grinned and put on his sunglasses. "Ah, Monroe, you're sonniness burns me!"
I grinned at him, unable to help it. "That was really cheesy, you know."
He grinned. "I know." Then he took off his sunglasses. "I just couldn't resist."
I laughed. "You know, you're supposed to learn self control between the ages of 1 and 3."
Now it was his turn to laugh. "Yeah, but I thought we've established that I'm somewhere between 4 and 7."
I smiled. "So, what's got you in such a great mood?"
He shrugged, looking down. "I dunno."
I smiled. "I thought we were fighting. Or at least we were two days ago."
He looked at me seriously. "Things change."
I nodded, deciding to change the subject. "Well, I hope you party better than you act."
He gasped mockingly. "You take that back!"
I smirked. "Make me!" And I ran inside and to my dressing room.
When I got into my dressing room, Tawni was doing her nails. "Okay, Sonny, do you want your hair curled more or straightened?"
I rolled my eyes. "Tawni, it's nine in the morning. The party doesn't start until eight! In fact, I bet you Chad won't even pick me up until eight ten! You know how he is! 'Fashionably late is fashionably great.'"
She laughed. "I know, but I need to make preparations!"
I gave her a look. "How many preparations do you need to-"
"Sonny! Just answer me!"
"Fine," I agreed. "I want-"
I was cut off. "Wait, I have the perfect idea! Never mind! I'll be back!" Tawni ran out of the room faster than I would have thought possible. Her and her beauty.
After rehearsal, I went to the cafeteria for lunch. Chad wasn't there, though the rest of his cast was. That's weird.
Suddenly he walked in with his ear pressed to the phone. "No! They have to be lavender! Because…. It has a meaning you know! It only fits that they're purple! Yes, I'm aware of what it means! I'm Chad Dylan Cooper, and I want my… oh, hi Sonny." He grinned. "Just send them to me." And he slid his phone shut.
\I looked at him, confused. "Hi Chad. What was that all about?"
He laughed nervously. "Oh, you know, just preparations for tonight." Then he cleared his throat awkwardly. "Excuse me." And he walked away.
Well, that was weird. Well, guess I can't worry about that now. I still have to write a sketch and then Tawni's going to smother me with makeup.
By the time six o' clock came around and Tawni dragged me over to her vanity, I was bored out of my mind. So I was glad for the distraction of wondering what Tawni was doing as she worked on me. I guess I shouldn't complain; Tawn does a good job with her makeup.
When she had finished, it was about 7:30 and I put on my dress. Then I finally looked in the mirror. Wow. Was that really me?
She had given my eyes a smoky look, made sure my eyelashes were full, put on gorgeous red lipstick, just a hint of blush, and put my wavy hair up into a bun. The makeup was appealing; not too much. It was incredible, and my look really complimented my dress. "Wow, Tawni, it's amazing! I love you!"
She grinned but didn't let me hug her. "Sonny, I'm not a hugger. Besides, you'll ruin the makeup I just spent hours working on! It's eight, I'm leaving, tell me what Chad's reaction is. Okay, bye!" She had gotten ready while I was getting dressed.
Five minutes later there was knock at the door. I grinned and opened it. Chad was smirking, but when he saw me his eyes bugged. "Wow. You look….. amazing, Sonny."
I grinned. "Thank you. You're looking pretty spiffy yourself." It was true. Chad had on a suit, but not a weird kind; it looked good on him.
He smiled again. "These are for you." He held out a bouquet of lavender roses.
I smiled. "Aw, thanks Chad!" I was touched. "This is really sweet of you."
He smiled and put his arm through mine. "Shall we?"
I nodded. "We shall."
We walked there, Chad talking about Mackenzie Falls the whole time. I didn't really mind. He was in a great mood, and that's what mattered to me. When we got to the entrance of the party, he turned to me. "Okay, we wait here until they announce us. You'll do great. By the way, Sonny, you look beautiful. I knew you would."
I beamed. "Wow, Chad? Two compliments in one night? I think you're right, things do change."
He was about to reply, but then we heard the DJ. "And now, the moment you've all been waiting for, Chad Dylan Cooper and his date, Sonny Monroe!"
He grinned. "That's our cue. Ready?"
I nodded, and we began to walk down the stairs to the party. All heads were turned our way, and some people were clapping. Wow. I feel like a princess. No wonder Chad's head is so big!
I laughed to myself as we made it down the stairs. "What's so funny?' Chad wanted to know.
I grinned. "Nothing."
He rolled his eyes jokingly and went to mingle, pulling me along. Hmm. I had assumed he would ditch me to go flirt. Well, this was a nice surprise.
After about 20 minutes, the DJ spoke again. "Okay, guys. For this first dance Chad and Sonny are going to start us off. You guys ready?"
I laughed as Chad shrugged and pulled me to the dance floor. Suddenly Crazier by Taylor Swift started playing, and Chad put his arms around my waist tentatively. I smiled, reassuring him, and put my arms around his neck as we began to dance.
I'd never gone with the wind,
Just let it flow,
Let it take me where it wants to go
Then you open the door,
There's so much more,
I never seen it before
I was trying to fly but I couldn't find my wings,
Then you came along and you changed everything
Chad looked into my eyes, as I looked into his. We slowly danced to the music, wordlessly, just enjoying the moment.
You lift my feet off the ground,
You spin me around,
You make me crazier, crazier
Feels like I'm fallin and I,
I'm lost in your eyes,
You make me crazier, crazier, crazier, ohhh
I watched from a distance as you, made life your own,
Every sky was your own kind of blue,
And I wanted to know,
How that would feel,
And you made it so real,
You showed me something that I couldn't see,
You opened my eyes and you made me believe
You lift my feet off the ground,
you spin me around, you make me crazier, crazier
Feels like I'm fallin and I,
I'm lost in your eyes,
You make me crazier, crazier, crazier, ohhhh
Baby you showed me what livin is for,
Don't wanna hide anymore!
You lift my feet off the ground, you spin me around,
You make me crazier, craier,
Feels like I'm fallin and I,
I'm lost in your eyes,
You make me crazier,
Crazier,
Crazier…
By now we had really gotten into the music and our steps were bigger. As the song ended, the crowd erupted into cheers and Chad rested his forehead against mine, breathing heavily like I was.
We were both grinning like idiots as he led me out to the patio and other people started dancing.
We were alone as we sat down at one table. I grinned. "You know, that was nice. What made you honestly decide you forgave me?"
"Honestly?" he asked. "Sonny, I'm not going to lie anymore. I really like you."
Ha, I love to leave things at cliffhangers! It's fun! Don't worry, I'll update tomorrow or possibly later tonight. I have big plans! Now, why don't you click the little review button? You know you want to yell at me.
LOL
