Chad Dylan Cooper made his way toward the Prop House, tossing a perfectly folded blue piece of paper into the air, catching it every time gravity pulled it back. He whistled happily as he walked, not having a care in the world. Now that the stupid camping trip was over and done with, he didn't have to worry about his hair not looking perfect, spiders sneaking their way into his tent, or spending way too much time with the Randoms. He could visit them on his terms, heading back to his set after annoying them enough. There would be no more team-building activities, tent sharing with two goof-balls, and, perhaps the best perk of the trip coming to an end: Sonny would no longer be jealous of Tawni.

Although Sonny's envious side was not one Chad wanted to deal with every day, he had enjoyed it while it lasted. Sonny couldn't do anything without it being cute (stupid cute!), and that included pretending not to care about Chad and Tawni's friendship. To be honest, Chad had no idea how Sonny jumped to the wrong conclusion. He and Tawni were friends, friends who went back to an early childhood of knowing each other. Yes, they did share a few of the same memories, but that didn't mean Chad had a crush on her. Even thinking about EVER having a crush on a Random was enough to make Chad laugh. Like he would be dumb enough to fall for someone in Chuckle City, even if she did have the prettiest hair he had ever seen and had a smile that could brighten an entire room.

With his thoughts stuck in La La Land, Chad wasn't paying close attention to where he was walking. One second, he was on his feet-

And the next, he was lying on the floor, the body his had collided with tumbling nearby.

"Watch where you're going!" he snapped, not bothering to see who the other person was.

"Chad?" a voice he knew all too well replied. "What are you doing over here at 'So Random!"?"

"Currently I'm getting up after some rude person walked into me."

Sonny rolled her eyes, knowing better than to argue with Chad over which of them was the one not paying attention. The two stars climbed to their feet simultaneously, neither offering to help the other. Chad brushed fake dust from his Mack Falls uniform as Sonny asked another question.

"Are you going to tell me what you're really doing here or should I just assume you're here to bother me like you always do?"

"I was under the impression you wanted me to talk to you more, Munroe. Or do you think you can handle your emotions better now that we're back at the studio and you can understand that even though the ladies need their daily does of CDC…" At this point, Chad placed his hand on Sonny's shoulder. "I'll always have some extra attention set aside for you?"

The way he said his words was in an almost degrading style. Sonny pulled away from Chad tersely, glaring at him all the while.

"Look, if you didn't come here for any particular reason-,"

"Actually, I came to give this-," Chad extracted his blue paper, "To your cast. Shall we proceed to the Prop House so I can do my task and get back to acting?"

He continued on his stroll, barely noticing the way Sonny tensed. Her body was in front of his within seconds, trying to block him from entering the pre-mentioned room.

"There's something you should know before you go in there," she said, smiling nervously. "You see, it's actually a funny little story, but-,"

"You knew I was coming and decided to throw me a surprise party?!"

It was the best guess Chad had as he stood in the doorway, watching the chaotic scene unfolding before his eyes. Looking like they were trying to perform some sort of dance, all four Randoms were on their feet, acting stranger than usual. Nico and Tawni stood on the couch, their backs rubbing together in urgency. Zora bounced around, one hand always staying on her stomach, the other on the top of her head. Grady, who was wrapped in toilet paper for some unknown reason, tried to use a plunger as a back-scratcher.

Chad refused to come inside any further, afraid the craziness may rub off on him.

"It's poison ivy," Sonny explained, her own hand flying to the back of her neck where she could barely reach?. "We all came down with it shortly after getting back. You…might not want to stay here too long. Oh, but before you go, could you scratch my back please? J-just right in the center. I can't reach it!" she grinned tightly for his agreement. Until then, she strained pulling her arm as far back as she could to get the itch.

Already turning to leave, Chad oddly stared at Sonny—debating if it was really worth it.

"No. See ya—wait." Remembering why he had come in the first place, he pulled the blue paper from his pocket.

"I guess you'll have to share this with the rest of your cast mates since they're all…busy…at the moment," he said, struggling to find the correct word.

"What's this?" Sonny demanded, unfolding the paper quickly.

"It's a list," Chad blatantly explained, nodding toward words he and his own cast mates had scrawled across the page. "We came up with reasons our two casts can't be friends, even after that cute little "Let's-go-camping-and-be-friends!" idea," Chad mocked in a falsetto voice, over-exaggerating a smile before he dropped it.

"WHAT?!?"

Her eyes scanning through the list, Sonny saw the most ridiculous reasons in the world to keep a friendship at bay. Chad's list was really simply a bunch of complaints his cast had against the Randoms. For example, one rule stated there could never be a friendship because Sonny would start leading sing-alongs at the worst possible moments. Another said it could never happen because clothes would be stolen while someone took a shower. The list went on and on and on. Chad could had left it at that level of intolerance but no. Flipping over the paper, Sonny found an official bank statement recording anything that was broken or messed with by the Randoms. Shortly glimpsing, Sonny's eyes grew wider as her mouth began to fall a little bit after she saw the multiple zeros apparently the Randoms owed him.

"We didn't even break half of those stuff! Wha-what's this!? Marta's contact lens!? Official MacKenzie Falls guitar!?"

Chad tonelessly shrugged. "Whatever was even seen by you Randoms, we had to burn it. Besides," Chad laughed callously. "That guitar's not worth anything if it's actually been played on. To make the big bucks, you lie and say you did play it when you didn't. Otherwise it's just creepy," Chad shuddered, wondering how many items his magnificent hands had actually touched before some freak fan took possession of it.

Just as Sonny opened her mouth to tell Chad how stupid his list (slash) statement (slash) ideas were, Zora noticed Chad was in the room. She made her way toward the couple, causing Chad to jump away in fear, not wanting her to touch him and spread the poison.

"Oh, calm down! I'm not here to make you sick - although I should be after all the pranks your cast pulled on the trip." She glowered up at him before extending her fist. "Hold out your hand!"

"Don't tell me what to do!"

Taking Chad's wrist and using it to pull his hand forward, Zora handed over whatever she was hiding between her fingers. Chad and Sonny both glanced down at it, their mouths falling open in surprise.

"Is this…It can't be…" Chad stared down at Zora. "Did you just hand me HAIR?!"

Zora smiled proudly as she said, "Yep! Don't worry though. It's just a few strands I took from you and your cast mates."

"You took strands of my hair?!" Chad's hands flew to the top of his head. "You actually TOUCHED CDC's hair?!?"

"I was hoping I could use the hair to get rid of Candy Face. I thought having real human DNA would help change him back to a real person. But since he just ended up being Chastity covered in candy instead of a monster, I have no use for your hair."

Grossed out about the fact he was holding strands of hair, most of which wasn't even from his own head, Chad let everything fall from his palm. Zora opened her mouth like she was going to chide him for it-

But had to stop when Grady ran over, the plunger he was holding before now stuck to his forehead.

"Look at me!" he cried out, putting his hands at his chest so they looked like paws. "I'm a toilet unicorn!"

Sonny buried her face in her hands, Zora shook her head, and Chad started reaching for an itch just out of his reach. Suddenly, there was another itch, followed by several others, until they enveloped his entire body. He couldn't believe it: the poison ivy was all over his body now, just like the Randoms.

"Ugh!" Chad grunted, his hands going in every direction as the rash continued to spread. "Does anyone have any calamine lotion?!"

A hand came from behind his back, offering a tube.

"Thanks, Sonny."

"Thanks Sonny for what?" her eyebrow raised in confusion.

"I try being nice to you and all you're going to do is question me about it?"

"Only because I have no idea what you're thanking me for!"

"I wanted to thank you for being such a huge influence in my life." When Sonny gave him a disbelieving look, Chad went on. "What do you think I'm thanking you for? The calamine lotion you just handed me!"

"Sonny doesn't have any calamine lotion, man!" Nico protested. "We asked her for some over an hour ago!"

"Well apparently she does if she just handed it over to the enemy!!" Grady yelled, nodding his head forward in a way as if he was within moments of head-butting Chad. The boy began to neigh like a bucking horse.

"She doesn't care enough about her so-called friends to help them stay pretty!" Tawni added. "I can't show my face if it gets all red and puffy!"

Not biting at Tawni's bait, Chad let his eyes roam the room. Four out of five Randoms were easily within his sight. Sonny was the only one standing a few inches behind his body, but she had already said she wasn't the one who handed over the calamine lotion. That meant somebody else was behind him.

Slowly, Chad met Sonny's gaze. He could tell by her scared expression she had reached the same conclusion as him. They both turned around at the same time, holding their breath to see whoever was standing there.

A creature stood not even a foot from them, covered in candy from head to foot. Its arm stretched out almost as though it was trying to shake their hands.

"CANDY FACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

The Prop House erupted into screams of terror as everyone took off running in all different directions.


SPOILER!!!

Similarities between the story and episode (not in order): (Numbers 1-4 were just from the promos)

1. Zora's head pops out from her sleeping bag when we had Chad doing that.

2. Some "Chad-Tawni" scenes! And we're only saying this because Chad is by Sonny a FAIR amount of times. And like the episode-sharing a compact mirror whereas it's hair product in our story. And Chad sided with Tawni for the log.

3. A channy hug! In chapter 6, we TOTALLY had that planned in January before we saw the promo!

4. Chad in the episode says "This has "So Random" written all over it!" and in our story, Chad goes "Yes, it IS "So random", isn't it?" when Skylar goes off his on his "Random" rant.

5. It was 3 days long!

6. We had the exact pairing for the scavenger hunt—except for Chastity but she was supposed to be with Grady!!!

7. The blender!

8. The Randoms—well, Sonny—has to replace everything broken!!

9. Nico wanted to eat the candy!!!

10. Everyone sang together around the campfire!!!!

11. They talked about chickens and steak—which is similar to the chickens, hen and turkey talk.

12. Sonny put up the tent!

13. There was a hunt--whether for candy or for berries--a hunt!

14. The tent fell on people!

15. If you switched the way MF was sitting on their log, it would had been nearly exactly like how in our story!

16. Sonny "happily" woke up to the morning!

17. Bernie DID make an entrance--even if he wasn't a snake!

18. We had all the guys minus Grady hurl and...well, in the ep, Nico and Grady threw up!
