I wrinkled my nose in confusion at Chad's hostility. Why did he hate this guy? I mean, this Jason dud doesn't seem all that bad. In fact, he's kind of cute….
Chad scowled as Jason waved us over, but pulled me along anyway. "Why are you here? Didn't the law give you other….. obligations?" Chad seethed.
"Ah, see, that's where you're wrong, Chaddykins. I'll explain when there aren't other…. witnesses in hearing distance." Jason looked pointedly at me.
I looked at them confused again. "I'm so confused!"
Jason laughed. "As well you should be, sweetheart!"
Chad scowled at him, but turned to me with an obviously fake smile on. "Sonny, why don't you go order a large cheese pizza for us? It's your favorite, trust me." I nodded and walked away. Whoever this was obviously wanted to talk to Chad in private, so I guess I could try to keep busy. I walked up to the register.

As soon as Sonny was out of earshot, I turned to Jason, a permanent glare set in place on my face. He smirked. "She doesn't know what happened? Aw, how sweet. You're protecting her! You know, I have to admit, I'm a little disappointed. I never, with a single ounce of my being, would have thought that you'd be whipped."
I scowled again. "I'm not whipped. Now answer my question. Why aren't you in jail?" My voice was low, dangerous. He didn't seem to care.
Jason leaned back in his chair, seeming at ease. "Well, since little miss Sonday was in the hospital, you guys got a bad lawyer. No one came to be her witness, so I was off the hook. I have to admit, this was way too easy. I just might have to have a little more fun with her."
I growled. "I swear, if you lay a finger on her-."
"Too late!" he interrupted.
I rolled my eyes. "Let me rephrase: If you lay a finger on her one more time, I will kill you." Once again, my voice was threateningly low.
He smirked at me. "Look, I'm only gonna say this once. If you even tell her what happened, or forbid her from seeing me, I can't promise that she won't get hurt. And this time, I'll make sure you aren't around to save her. Got it?"
My eyes widened. No. Sonny can't get hurt from all of this! Not again. "Don't touch her! She's only a child! She's so innocent; it's not fair!"
He let out a breath of air. "Then don't tell her, huh, Sherlock?"
I was about to retort, but then Sonny came back with the pizza, and no more could be said. He understood that I loved her too much to let her get hurt, and I understood that he wasn't going to stop. This was a game to him; he found it entertaining. And he would stop at nothing to hurt me. See, it may have started out that he was an abusive boyfriend, but now it was so much more. He knew how I felt, and he was determined to see how far I was willing to go to protect her. He knew I would do anything, and he was counting on that. He was counting on the fact that he was going to take me down. He was just sick.
I glared at him one last time, grabbed the pizza box, and began to tow Sonny out the door. We weren't going to stay with him. Just like he thought, I would stop at nothing to insure Sonny's safety.
His voice stopped Sonny in her tracks. "Hey, Sonshine," He purposely used my nickname for her. "If you ever want to talk, my number's in your phone."
She nodded, and with that, I pushed us both out the door. "Come on, Sonny." My voice was gruff, menacing.
Sonny was silent on the car ride home, but as soon as we got inside the house, she turned to face me. "What the heck was that, Chad? You were being so obnoxious!"
My face turned into one of shock. "You think I was being obnoxious! Well, fine, protect yourself! You know what, just eat your pizza! I've just decided that I'm not hungry!" And, with that, I ran up the stairs, not even looking behind me to see Sonny's confused but angry expression. I didn't need to see it to know it was there.

Chad ran up the stairs, leaving me behind to wonder what the heck he was talking about. Protecting me? From what? I didn't have time to finish my thoughts because my phone rang.
I sighed, coming out of my reverie, but picked up the phone. "Hello?"
"Sonday?" Who was this? "Um, do you have a wrong number?"
The person on the other end laughed. "No, Sonny, it's Jason."
"Oh." I brightened up. "Listen, I'm sorry about Chad, he can be a real jerk sometimes."
Jason laughed again. "Yeah, it's fine. Anyway, I was wondering if you wanted to go on a date tomorrow night?"
I sighed. "Look, I don't know. I don't really remember anything right now, so I'm not really looking for a relationship at the moment."
I could practically hear a smile in his voice. "Come on, Sonny. One date. That's all. If you don't want to go on another, I won't make you. Please?"
I couldn't help but smile. Wow, he must really like me if he's willing to beg. "Okay. One date."
He laughed. "Thanks. I'll pick you up at six tomorrow, okay?"
I grinned. "Okay." Then I hung up. Who knows? This could be fun.
Jason's POV
I smirked as I hung up the phone. Be prepared, Sonday, because this is one date you're never going to forget.
Ooh, drama! Sorry, I wanted to make this longer, but I also wanted to stop it here because it's a good cliffy. You see my dilemma. Anyway, I'd just like to thank xoxtruegryffindorxox for reviewing every single chapter and watermoon12 for completely loving my favorite part! Isn't it funny when Chad gets hurt? Ha, anyway, until next time! Oh, and if I missed anyone awesome, which you all are, but there is only so much room here, I apologize. Check out Camilla Monet's stories! SMILES!
LOL
