Don't Say That You Need Me
A/N: This is my first Sonny With A chance fic, but I am addicted, haha. I love the show and the relationship between Chad and Sonny. So, enjoy!
"SONNY!" Tawni Hart storms through the hallway outside her dressing room and bangs furiously on the door. A simple black tie is wrapped around the doorknob, indicating the fact that Chad Dylan Cooper is currently occupying the room. Tawni rolls her eyes at the clothing and continues to pound on the door. "Give it a rest! I have to do my hair!" Tawni kicks the door and then whimpers as pain fills her toes. "Ugh, Sonny!" The door is flung open and Chad Dylan Cooper steps out, smoothing his white button-up shirt. He grabs his tie and smirks at Tawni before sauntering away. Tawni rolls her eyes again and steps inside the dressing room. Her co-star, Sonny Monroe is stretched out on the sofa, humming happily.
"Hi, Tawni!" Sonny sings, standing up and walking over to the mirror. She smoothes her long brown hair and then checks her watch. "We're on set in five minutes," she reminds Tawni and leaves the room.
"Really, Sonny, he's not good enough for you!" Tawni calls after her. She shakes her head and grabs her brush before running it through her blonde curls. The chrorus to Miley Cyrus's latest song fills the room and Tawni pulls her cell phone out of her pocket and looks at the screen. With a sigh, she presses the ignore button and returns her phone to her pocket. After making sure that she looks okay, she leaves the room and heads to set. Nico, Grady, Zora, and Sonny are already in costume. They're doing a fifties sketch today, so Sonny and Zora are in poodle skirts, Nico is in a leather jacket and jeans, Grady is a football player, and Chad is---Hold up. Chad? Tawni's mouth drops open at the sight of Chad, hair greased back, dressed in a white t-shirt, leather jacket, and light-wash, faded torn jeans. But Tawni's not in shock about his looks, she's wondering why the heck he's on her set. The use of her was a reflex by now, she thought of everything as her's. But that didn't matter. What mattered was that CHAD-FREAKING-DYLAN-FREAKING-COOPER! was on her set. His hand was lightly resting on Sonny's arm and he was laughing at something she was saying. If the other members and crew of So Random found this odd, they didn't show it. A crew member walks over to Tawni and told her to go to wardrobe and make-up. With a huff, Tawni follows the woman to set where she dresses in a pair of black jeans, red heels, a red shirt, and leather jacket. After going through make-up, she rushes back to the set and gets ready to run lines. While Nico and Grady talk smack to each other, Tawni walks over to Sonny and leans in like she tripped. "What is Chad doing here?" Tawni hisses, straightning back up and fluffing her hair.
"It wasn't my idea," Sonny whispers back.
"Then whose was it?"
"Marshall's."
"Marshall's?"
"Yes!"
"Is he out of his mind?" Tawni sneaks a glance at Marshall who is chatting with the director.
"Action!"
"Like, ohmygosh, look, it's little miss preppy," Tawni sneers at Sonny, snapping into character. "Hey, Jess, check out her skirt!"
"Poodle skirts are so last year," Chad says, walking up to Sonny and grabbing her arm.
Tawni scrunches her face up as she watches Sonny melt from his touch. What does she see in him anyway?
"Wear some jeans," Chad says. Sonny opens her mouth to say her line, but freezes, her eyes locking onto Chad's.
"Cut!" the director yells. "Everyone, we'll re-group after lunch." Chad and Sonny rush off the set. No one sees them but Tawni and she groans in frusturation. It is so obvious what was going on! Why is she the only one who can see it?
Sonny grabs Chad's hand as soon as they're off set and they run to his dressing room. Chad locks the door and presses Sonny against the wall, his lips crashing onto hers. His hands tangle in her hair as his hips grind against her. Heat courses through Sonny's veins and she moans into his mouth and grabs the bottom of his shirt, untucking it from his jeans and shoving his leather jacket off. Then his shirt is off and her hands are roaming his toned torso and he's groaning. His tongue parts her lips and explores her mouth hungrily as one hand slips from her hair to rest at her left hipbone.
"Chad," Sonny pants, pulling away from him and taking a gulp of air. "We don't have time."
"We have all the time in the world," Chad replies before kissing her again. He removes her shirt and tosses it to the floor before his hand travels down between her legs. It's just like the first time he ever touched her. She sees stars and her heart starts racing so fast she's scared that it will explode out of her chest. She vaguely wonders how this happened, how she got to be involved with Chad Dylan Cooper, her enemy. But he's not her enemy anymore. At least not by much.
He undoes the button on her skirt and drags the zipper down, so slowly that she knows that he's doing it to torture her. He still is Chad Dylan Cooper after all. When her skirt is lying in a heap on the floor, Chad kneels down in front of her and kisses the inside of her thigh. Sonny squirms impatiently and he smirks as he looks up at her, his normally ice-blue eyes darkened with lust. His thumbs hook around the waistband of her underwear and then----"Will Sonny Monroe and Chad Cooper report to set." It's an order rather than a question and it makes Chad growl in annoyance. He mumbles a few cusses under his breath as he pulls his shirt and jacket back on and then helps Sonny to re-dress. Chad starts to leave, but Sonny grabs his arm. She looks so innocent, standing there in a pink poodle skirt, her dark hair falling in curls around her shoulders, eyes bright and hopeful. He could shoot himself in the knee for taking her innocence away from her. But he couldn't help it. She was like a drug to him, once he had a taste, he couldn't stop.
"Chad." He loves the way she says his name. As if she really needs him to protect her from the world. But she's stronger than she thinks.
"What?"
"Kiss me." He pulls her into his arms and presses his lips to hers. The kiss is brief, but it will be enough to last them until the skit is over. Chad leaves first and then Sonny does a few minutes later. They can't let anyone know they're together. The only person who knows is Tawni and she figured it out on her own. But Sonny had sworn her to secrecy. Nobody could find out they were dating. It would mean the end of everything for the both of them.
