a/n: Thanks to everyone who reviewed! This chapter was originally two seperate chapters, but I realised it kinda worked better as one. And it's longer, so that's cool for you guys I guess, haha. Hope you like it!

"I come from a land down under! Where women glowww and men plunder." Break stopped and looked thoughtful. "Grey, why exactly do the women glow?"

Greyson, one of the Teen Gladiator reps, shrugged. "I dunno. There's a lot of sun in Australia. Maybe they're like, reflective or something."

Break seemed to consider this for a moment. "Huh, I guess you're right. Yeah, that's probably it." He took in a deep breath. "I come from a land down under!"

"We're stuck with them for two weeks?" Chad moaned and started digging around in his backpack for something.

"He's an idiot." Anna had taken up a seat next to Sonny. "But he's really hot while he's being one."

"Chad?" Sonny turned to her with a confused face.

"No." Anna giggled. "Everyone knows Chad is yours. I meant Break Tony, he's just so… and the muscles… I have every episode of Teen Gladiator he's in on Tivo."

"Oh." Sonny tried to ignore the comment she made about Chad, and the fact that it made her face heat up in a wildly inappropriate way. Well, it was appropriate for when she was mad at Chad and arguing with him (which was always) but for any other fashion. Just… no. Instead she drew her attention to the tall, bulky teenager still belting out the same two lines of the cheesy song about Australia. He had short, blonde hair, and dark eyes that had a glimmer to them. She shrugged. "I suppose. He's not really my type."

He must have felt her stare because next thing she knew he looked in her direction and gave her a big grin, and if she wasn't mistaken, the slightest hint of a wink. Next to her Anna sighed girlishly. Sonny gave him a smile back and turned to Anna.

"Yeah ok… maybe he's a little hot."

Anna narrowed her eyes playfully. "Back off. He's mine."

"Pretty sure he winked at me." Sonny tossed her hair over her shoulder casually. "Nah, he's all yours."

"And Chad's all yours." She whispered. "Don't look now, but he's looking at you."

So naturally, Sonny peeked a glance at the boy next to her. He was staring at her intensely, his head slightly tilted. There was something about the stare that made Sonny's face heat up in that inappropriate way again and she hated herself for having that reaction. She gave him her best 'what are you looking at?' stare. She was about to say it, but realised he had headphones in.

His eyes went wide at being caught and… Sonny was sure he blushed a little. He shook his head and rolled his eyes, before quickly turning his attention to his iPod.

Sonny decided to ignore him. They weren't even on the plane yet, and she was already sick to death of the blonde haired drama king.

"Anna." Rebecca approached them. "We're going to be boarding soon. So here." She handed her a small bag with two pills in it. "Remember to take these as soon as you find your seat."

"Oh I won't forget. Not after the LA to Nashville disaster of 2004." Anna took the pills from Rebecca and smiled at her gratefully.

"Anna…" Sonny started. "Um, can I ask… if so much makes you feel sick by just the smell of it and that… uh, how do you work on a show that is about food?" The questions had been bugging her since Rebecca had rattled off the list of things that made Anna feel nauseous, finishing it with 'and other things'.

The girl shrugged. "Most of the time the food is fake, and when it's not they try to give me as few lines as possible, so I just try and not breathe in. Once they tried to get me to wear nose plugs, but then I sounded like I was really sick, and it's like 'what's a sick person doing in a kitchen?' and it was too unrealistic. I mean, I know a fifteen-year-old professional chef is already unrealistic… but… it's television. Have you seen Mackenzie Falls?"

For a moment Sonny wasn't actually sure if Anna was genuinely asking and changing the topic, or if it was part of her 'television is unrealistic' point. But with the way she didn't seem to be expecting any sort of answer, it was probably the latter.

"Right." Sonny nodded, she glanced at Chad whose face was fixed in a glare on Break Tony.

"Alright kids. Make sure you have your boarding passes and passports on you or else you're not getting on the plane, you'll stay here at LAX and I will lose my job." Jamie announced loudly, waving around his own passport and plane ticket as if they needed an example of what it was they needed to be holding in their hands.

Sonny quickly fished through her bag looking for her passport, which in a hurry to get Starbucks she'd thrown carelessly into her bag. The boarding pass placed carefully inside had crinkled after being shoved amongst her purse, phone and the book she was currently reading.

"Line up over here guys. Come on, quickly." Rebecca held the door open.

After pushing and shoving, Break loudly complaining that Greyson kept stepping on his feet and Roxy and Chad having to take photo's with one of the flight attendants, they were finally getting onto the plane and finding their seats.

"Where are you sitting?"

Anna glanced down at her ticket. "Seven B. You?"

"Eight A. Bummer. I was hoping we'd be next to each other."

"Don't worry, I'm going to be sleeping the whole time anyway, it's not like I'd be the best company anyway."

"Sonny, here." Rebecca waved her over. Sonny squeezed her way past an older couple putting luggage in the overhead and met Rebecca halfway down the business section. "Try not to kill each other, ok?" She whispered to Sonny.

Sonny frowned, but it was quickly forgotten when he eyes fell upon the window seat she had. She clapped her hands excitedly and quickly slid into the seat, moving around a little to get comfortable.

"This is so cool." She said to herself.

"Howdy neighbour."

"Ahhh!" She jumped in surprise, her heartbeat quickened momentarily, until she just saw Break Tony's face peeking between the two chairs. "Oh my gosh, you scared me."

"Sorry about that. 'Grats on the window seat." His hand appeared out of nowhere.

"Uh… yeah…" Sonny obliged him the high-five.

"If you get bored at all during the flight, just ask Grey here to swap with ya for a while, and I'll entertain you." He wriggled his eyebrows, and Sonny couldn't quite work out if he was being comical or suggestive. She was thankfully saved from a response when someone slid into the seat next to her.

"Hi, I'm Cha- oh. It's you."

"Oh, goodie, my dream come true. Sitting next to Chad Dylan Cooper, the greatest actor of our generation, for fifteen hours. Whoopee." Sonny said in a deadpan voice.

Chad gave her an award-winning smile (no, really, Tween Weekly's 'most charming smile' three years in a row). "That's exactly right." He turned to Break and his eyes narrowed. "What are you doing?" he asked.

"Offering our Miss Sonny here a way out from having to suffer next to you." He said with a smirk.

Sonny had to bite her lip to stop herself from laughing at the look on Chad's face. "Please, Sonny and I are friends."

"You are?" Break asked at the same time Sonny said,

"We are?"

"Well, let's see… I saved you from being humiliated on national television, in front of your shows entire three viewers, I let you hang out at the falls, I went on a fake date with you, I helped you break up-"

"Alright." Sonny cut in. "I get it."

"Actually, now that I think about it, I've done a lot for you. And you have done very little for me. I think you owe me one Munroe."

"I've knocked your ego down a few notches. You're welcome Cooper."

"Alright, well, I'm going to leave you two at that… and see what movies are playing." Break shrunk back into his own seat, leaving Sonny and Chad glaring at each other. "Oh! The new Twilight is playing!"

Chad raised his eyebrows and mouthed "Wow."

Sonny let out a little giggle and turned to her own screen at her seat. She settled back into the seat, knowing any comfort was going to be temporary. Two hours in and her back would be killing. But it was going to be worth it. She couldn't wait to get to Australia.

Sonny shifted in her seat again. She wriggled her butt, flexed her feet and twisted her back and settled back into her seat.

No. It hadn't helped. Her lower back now had a dull ache, and she could feel the kinks in her neck and shoulder's. She already watched her way through two movies, and several episodes of Friends and was officially bored. She glanced at the boy next to her. His earphones were in an his eyes were closed, he'd been like that for a while and she was pretty sure he was asleep.

Maybe she should try that too…

She started digging around for her iPod, when a piece of paper fell in her lap. She frowned and opened it up.

Sonny I'm bored.

It read.

Slowly she glanced around. It wasn't from Chad because it wasn't his handwri- well, he was asleep. She peeked through the gap between her and Chad's seats and as she did Break Tony grinned and waved at her. She smiled back.

She managed to find a pen (and her iPod while she was at it) and wrote a reply.

How was Twilight?

She tossed it back to him.

Moments later it returned.

Nikki Reed is a freaking babe.

I'm more of a Taylor Lautner fan myself.

That dudes a pansy. What are you doing now?

Was going to try and get some sleep before we land

I'll leave you to it then. Night ;)

Sonny smiled to herself and folded the note before putting it in her pocket carefully. She put her earphones in and picked out some easy listening music and let it lull her to sleep.

OoOoO

Her pillow was warm. Really warm. And cosy and… she just… well, it just fit. She smiled to herself and hugged it tighter, nuzzling her head into it a little more. It hugged her back and she…

Wait.

Her eyes snapped open.

Her pillow hugged her back?

She opened her eyes to see a whole lot of blue, and quickly became aware of the fact that her 'pillow' was rising a falling, kind of like… breathing.

"Ahh!" She let out a scream and quickly pushed herself back into her own seat, getting as close to the edge of it as possible.

Chad's eyes snapped open at her scream, his head darting around in all directions. "What? What?" He asked. "Where's the spider?" His eyes fell on Sonny who was looking at him with her eyes wide, her face flushed completely read. He suddenly remembered… being woken up by a weight pressing against his chest. He'd looked down to find Sonny leaning on him, lying practically right across her seat. She'd flung one arm over his chest and in that moment he'd forgotten how to breathe. He wanted to wake her up… knew it was what he should do. But then she'd sighed happily and his heart fluttered. So, the logical thing to do had been to wrap an arm around her and pull her closer to him and fall back asleep.

That must have been how she woke up.

"Oh." He said. He scratched his awkwardly not sure what else to do. "Well uh…"

"Never happened?" She asked.

He nodded his head. "Never happened."

She sighed in relief. She'd been sure he was going to taunt her. Say how in love she was with him and how much she just couldn't resist him. And that it would go on and on and on for the rest of the trip. That it would be like the kissing thing all over again.

"Good." She said.

Chad rolled his eyes. "Good."

A grin slowly spread across her face. "Fine."

"Fine. Now, excuse me, I'm going to the bathroom."

Determined to not think about what had just happened Sonny turned to her screen and started playing around with it. They only had about two hours before they would be landing. She tried to look for a movie to watch, when someone suddenly slipped into the seat next to her.

"You two looked cosy."

She turned to find Greyson sitting next to her grinning.

She felt herself going red. "It was completely unintentional. I probably would have done it to anyone sitting next to me. I'm… a hugger."

"But he looked just as cosy as you. In fact, I'd go as far as saying he didn't seem to have any issue at all with you being all over him."

"I wasn't all over him! And, it's not like that. Chad and I are just…"

"Just what?" He asked, his brown eyes gleaming.

"Frenemies…"

"There's nothing going on between you two?" His raised an eyebrow sceptically.

"Ew, no. There's nothing… and never will be anything going on between Chad and I."

"Ok…" He still sounded like he doubted her. "Break will be happy to hear that."

"Break?" Sonny didn't bother to hide her surprised. "What does he have to do with anything?"

"Well, in case you didn't realise he-"

"Hey, buddy, you're sitting in my seat." Chad was suddenly standing over Greyson.

"Right, sorry." He looked back at Sonny for a moment. "Nice talking to you." He gave her a wink and got up to return to his own seat.

Chad sat himself down heavily with a huff. Before Sonny had a chance to say anything at all to him, he pulled on his headphones and put a movie on, practically glaring at the screen as he did so. She couldn't help but wonder if he was even looking at the screen properly at all. Or else he might have realised he was watching The Princess Diaries.
