Hey guys. This one's pretty quick-I'm streching out all of my ideas for the rest of the season, so they peobably will be quite short. I hope you like it all the same.

Chapter 16-I Gotta Find You

Chad's POV

The day after I went to Sonny's I don't hear anything from her. I try to call her, but it says her phone is switched off, so I leave her a message.

I arrive at the prop house to see if she's there. They're all there-Tawni, Grady, Nico, Zora…no Sonny. They haven't noticed I'm here, and are talking about something.

"What does it say?" Nico asks.

"It says not to tell Chad about where she's going." Tawni says.

"Who's going? And should I care?" I ask, and they all jump, noticing me for the first time.

"Chad!" Tawni says, "What are you doing here?"

"Uh, I'm looking for Sonny," I say, "Have you seen her?"

"Uh…yeah," Tawni says, "She went to…uh, Marshall's office."

"Oh, OK," I say, "I'll go and find her." I go to leave, but stop when I remember what Tawni just said. "Who doesn't want me to know where she's going?" I ask.

"Uh…Amber," She says hesitantly, and I think back to the girl who helped to break me and Sonny up. "Yeah, she wanted some time away from you, to think about some stuff."

"OK…" I say, "Um, I'm gonna go look for Sonny now."

"Yeah, you do that." Tawni says, and I head over to Marshall's office. I understand that Sonny doesn't want to date me anymore, but that doesn't mean she wouldn't want to be friends…right?

Tawni's POV

Chad leaves, and I immediately regret what I told him.

"Nice one, Tawni," Zora says, "Now Marshall will tell him the truth."

"Well, did you have a better idea?" I ask, and she shrugs, "Yeah, I thought so."

"I can't believe Sonny has just left us," Nico says.

"Yeah," Grady says, "I didn't know she was one to run from her problems."

"Yeah," Zora sighs, "I hope she comes back soon. She was the one who came up with all the good sketches."

I go to argue, but give up. Its true-Sonny did have some good ideas-Sicky Vicky, half of the Check It Out girls…oh my gosh! Who's gonna be the second check it out girl? Who'll stand next to me saying, "Check it out!"? Exactly. I hate to admit it, but we need Sonny. We can't just let her go…

"Guys," I say, "We have to get Sonny back."

Chad's POV

I arrive at Marshall's office and sigh. What will Sonny say? Will she be nice about the whole "friends" thing? Will she just spit in my face and leave? Will someone see and catch it on camera? Will this be the end of my bad boy rep? OK, calm down Chad, you're overacting. Don't be ridiculous. Sonny wouldn't want to embarrass me…right? I take a big sigh, before opening the door. Huh, weird. Marshall's there, but no Sonny.

"Mr Pike?" I say, and he looks up from his work, smiling.

"Chad," He says, "Good to see you again. To what do I owe this pleasure?"

I sigh, "Was Sonny here earlier? The Randoms told me she came here. Did she say where she was going?"

He sighs a little, looking confused. "Chad, did you not hear about what's going on with Sonny?"

My heart falls. "Is she OK?" I say, panicking. That's right-I do panic sometimes. Like I said before-I am human.

"She's fine," He says, "But she's…"

Suddenly, his phone goes off, and he answers it. "One minute…" He says, and I nod. I look around his office, to where I see pictures of all the Randoms, including Sonny. Ah, Sonny.

I get bored and listen in on his conversation. "…Yes, he's here right now…What? Why? ...OK, if that's what she wants…alright, remember rehearsals later…OK. Bye."

"Um, is everything OK?" I ask, "Was that about me?"

"Um, yes…" He says hesitantly. "Tawni ran into your director, and she wants you to get to the set of Mackenzie Falls right now."

"Why?" I ask, "It's my lunch break."

"Um, yes, but…" He sighs, "Tawni did say she might've heard her wrong. Just go at your normal time."

"OK," I say, "And, uh, how about Sonny? Where is she again?"

"Oh, she said she had to go looking for you because she got a message from you earlier."

"Do you know where she went?" I ask.

"I don't know," He says, "Maybe to your set?"

"I'll go see," I say, leaving the room, and he wishes me luck in finding her.
