Chapter 6-Packing
Chad's POV
The next few days go by like a blur.
Dad and Melanie are packing to go to Wisconsin, to get everything sorted, and I pack for moving in to live with my Sonshine.
I love Sonny. I love her for doing this for me…even though I kind of forced her to. Oh well, I'm still grateful.
I sit watching Abby play with her dolls while I pack her little clothes into a Teletubbies suitcase. Josh sits on his Nintendo DSi, and I sigh.
"Josh, don't you wanna help pack?"
"No." He groans, and I sigh.
"Don't you wanna go see Sonny?" I ask.
"It's not Sonny," He says, "That'll be cool…how come you got her a better house than you got us?"
I sigh. "She's my girlfriend."
"And you love her!" He laughs, making a kissy face, and I groan. He chuckles a little.
"So…why are you upset?" I ask, and he sighs.
"It's just…Dad and Melanie…"
I sigh, "I get it."
"It's just…everything's moving so fast between them." He says, "I don't want Dad to do this so quick…move on from Mom, get married so quick…"
"I know." I say, "I feel the same. But…maybe we should just trust Dad and his decision. Melanie's cool, isn't she?"
"Yeah, she's alright." Josh says, looking into the kitchen where Melanie stands, hovering. Why she's doing so, I have no idea.
"Exactly." I smile, "Don't worry, everything will be fine."
It's a good thing I'm an actor, because to be honest, I don't believe what I just told my poor little brother. I really need to stop lying. I don't think either of us really believe that Melanie and Dad are made for each other, but then, that's what I thought about Sonny and me, and now look at us. I sigh, sometimes the most unlikely things work out right, and maybe this will be one of them.
"Chad?" I hear a voice say, and turn to see Dad stood with his and Melanie's suitcases by his side. "Ready?"
"One sec…" I say, before heading up to my room and grabbing my box full of mine and Sonny's memories together. Yeah, I'm sad like that. But Sonny thinks it's sweet, so what the heck?
I run downstairs with the box in my hands, my suitcase trailing behind me. I smile.
"Ready."
We leave the house, locked, knowing that mail will pile up with no-one there, so I promise Dad I'll come and collect the mail every few days just in case there's something important. We drive off, a note on the door saying 'holiday', and I sigh. Goodbye, house. Yes, even Chad Dylan Cooper cares about things like houses and homes and all that sentimental stuff. All thanks to Sonny Munroe.
"Chad!"
Sonny flings her arms around me and I laugh.
"You missed me?"
"It's only been a day or so." She smiles, and I smirk.
"What's your point?"
She rolls her eyes and I laugh. She loves me really.
"Bye!" She waves to Melanie and Dad in the car as Josh gets the last suitcase out of the car and they drive off. "Can't wait for the wedding!"
"You and me both!" Melanie laughs as I roll my eyes, and Sonny smiles at Abby.
"Ready to see your room?"
Abby grins a happy grin, hugging Sonny, and I smile. Like I've said before, nice for Abby to have a good mother. I don't really know if I want Melanie to be Abby's mother. Surely, it would be better to just have my own Mom taking care of her?
I need to wake up though and realise-Mom's dead, and she's not coming back. I sure still love her, but she can't love me back, and it breaks my heart by I have to move on.
"Chad?"
I feel a hand rest on my shoulder and I smile. Sonny.
"You OK?"
I sigh, smiling a sad smile, "I'm fine. Thanks Sonny."
She smiles, "Good."
"Good." Couldn't resist that.
"Fine." She giggles along with Abby.
"Fine."
"Hey, lovebirds." Josh says, "I wanna see my room!"
He runs up the driveway to where Sonny's Mom stands in the door, and I laugh.
OK, so Abby has no proper Mom. I have no proper Mom. But I do have the next best thing…Sonny Munroe.
