And, you thought that was all from me!
Wow! Three updates of one story in one day? That's a record for me! :D Although, this is a short one...oh well
Anyway, new chapter, let's read :)
Chapter 20-Something About My Sonshine
Sonny's POV
"GOAL!"
Me and the girls toast to the winning team using our soda cans as the timer reaches zero, grinning. Callum's team won! I'm so proud of him! So proud of the whole team – they were really good.
We run down to where the team comes out of the changing room, trying not to act like crazed fans at a Jonas Brothers concert, but we're all so proud! It was a real nail-biter of a match, but they won right at the last second! All I can say is, bravo.
"This has been fun." Annie says to me, and I smile.
"It has."
"Things really aren't the same without you," She continues, "We realised that when you came back – it's been lame without ya."
"Aw, thanks." I smile, joining all my friends together in a group hug.
"Hey?" We hear a voice say, and turn to see a sweaty Callum. "Forgetting someone?"
"Of course not!" I say, hugging him. I then get a sneaky suspicion someone's looking at me, but ignore it. It's just me being silly.
"We should so celebrate!" Maisie says.
"Totally!" Jessie agrees, but I sigh. I promised Chad I'd be home at lunch. I look at the clock, half twelve.
"Sorry, guys." I say, "But I've gotta get going."
"Please?"
They all give me pouty faces, and I sigh.
"Lemme just ask Chad…"
I call Chad's number, and wait. I hear a faint ringing, but ignore it again. I'm being stupid, Chad wouldn't be here. He'll probably be with Abby playing with her dolls, or trying to thrash Josh on bowling. He doesn't even know where the hockey pitch is anyway.
Hmm, no answer.
I send him a text, saying, sorry Chad, gonna have lunch out too with my friends. Hope you and the kids are having fun! ttyl! ;)
I put away my phone and smile at my friends.
"Let's go."
Chad's POV
I arrive at the hockey pitch, hoping, praying, that everything is fine.
Everything is fine, everything is fine, everything is fine, everything is…
…
Everything's sure fine between Sonny and her friends. I hide behind a curtain, watching them hug. Then I see Callum come out of a changing room and Sonny hugs him tight, making my stomach churn.
I don't hear much, but I do see Sonny get out her phone and call someone. Then my phone starts ringing. Caller ID: Sonny.
I ignore it and send it to voicemail. I don't think I want to talk to her right now. She probably just wants to tell me that she's going out with her friends and Callum. Callum. How I hate the feel of that name on my tongue.
My phone then gets a text, also from Sonny.
Sorry Chad, gonna have lunch out too with my friends. Hope you and the kids are having fun! ttyl! ;)
I read through the text, fed up. I don't care Sonny, do what you want.
I was right, the whole time. Sonny wanted to come to Wisconsin, to see her friends, her ex, and maybe, if she's lucky, to stay in Wisconsin after Dad and Melanie's wedding.
Fine by me. Not that I care anymore.
I leave the hockey pitch, getting in my car. Shall I talk to Sonny? Tell her I saw her hugging her ex and tell her that she needs to explain? Well, what is there to explain? I know it all anyway.
Sonny came here to get away from California for a while, then when she was having too much fun she decided that she was enjoying life back in Wisconsin and wants to come back. It's clear now, it's why she came. It's obvious after what she did today.
Fine, I don't need her. Maybe I should go straight back to California? Steal away Abby and Josh and make a break for it?
Then I remember the wedding. Its tomorrow, and I don't want to ruin my Dad's special day all because of Alison Munroe. I'll just wait till the wedding is over tomorrow, then leave. If I just stow away, it saves all the drama. I'm not up for drama at the moment. I'm not up for anything.
Yes, I'll leave it one more day, and then I'm out.
I call Sara, my cousin, the cute one (I un-slap myself for thinking she's cute. I am single now anyway. Then I remember, she's gonna be family…slap myself mentally once again), and ask her if she wants to swap beds, as in, so I can be as far from Sonny as possible.
I'll make up some excuse to get away Saturday morning, taking Abby and Josh away with me. All I know is, I can't stay in this state. Not anymore…all because of my Sonshine, I mean…Alison Munroe.
:'( So sad! :'(
WEDDING NEXT CHAPTER! It will be split into two chapters, coz so much will happen. Next chapter will be the night before and just before, the second will be the reception (coz the actual wedding may be boring) and that night...
So, review! :)
