Disclaimer: Sonny with a Chance isn't mine. I think I might cry. *sniffle sniffle* Yeah, I just started acting camp this week. I'm a bit more theatrical than usual.

Hey everybody! I'm here! I'm back and man, let me just say that I'm thrilled for this sequel! So, as most of you know, this is the sequel to Glistening Teardrops. If you didn't understand that, well, you obviously haven't been reading summaries very well. So go read Glistening Teardrops first! Otherwise this will only make minimal sense to you! Anyway, who's as excited as I am? Probably no one! Oh well! I have a special guest star this time. And it's….. *drum roll* Channy! Yep, they're officially together now! Woohoo! Bout time, right? Anyway, hope you enjoy this!

Trickling Soulless

CPOV

My head throbbed, my stomach hurt, and I wanted to die. But it was just a normal day, right?

I groaned, in an even worse mood than usual. Who starts filming at 6:30 in the morning? Oh, that's right, the Falls! Lucky Randoms! They don't start until 9!

I shook my head to clear these thoughts as I marched into the studio, head held high, the traces of the night before gone. But I couldn't erase the swirl of pain lingering in my icy blue eyes.

SPOV (10:00 a.m.)

I sighed, putting down my book. This was hopeless. You know, if Tawni hadn't gotten me sick, I wouldn't have had to miss out on my date with Chad last night. And I wouldn't be at home right now reading a stupid book about monkeys and pineapples! I mean, who cares that they're tropical? Sorry, I get cranky when I'm sick.

I wondered briefly about what Chad was up to right now. I knew he was probably really tired. Mackenzie Falls had had to go in early today because their ratings were dropping. Surprisingly enough, he wasn't mad at So Random! for boosting our ratings.

Ever since we had gotten together three months ago, the feud had ended pretty fast, and everyone had put their best foot forward. Chad, Nico, and Grady even went bowling on Thursday nights. Power to the people, I guess, right?

Suddenly, my phone rang. I smiled. Chad had promised to call me, but I didn't think he would actually remember to. He's not a bad boyfriend, he just becomes more forgetful when he goes into work really early. Twice he almost forgot his script in the Prop House.

I picked up my phone that had been laying on my bedside table. "Hello?"

"Hey Sonshine," Chad voice came through the phone and brought a wide smile to my face.

"Hey, Chad. What's up? Tired?"

He groaned. "Exhausted, Sonny. You don't know the half of it. So, is my girl getting better?"

I frowned. There seemed to be a difference in his voice today, a trace of defeat and helplessness. Plus, I felt like there was a double meaning in his words. "Chad, are you okay?"

He chuckled, but I could tell that it was strained. "That's not answering my question, Sonny."

I sighed. "I'm fine, Chad. Are you?"

I could practically hear a smirk in his voice. "Oh, I am so fine."

I rolled my eyes, even though I knew he couldn't see it. "You're so conceited."

He laughed, this one more relaxed. If he thought I was done questioning him, well, he was in for a surprise. Maybe I'd leave him alone today, but I will bring it up again. "As long as you mean that as a compliment, I'm good."

I sighed dramatically. "Of course, my knight! My conceited love! Oh, Chad, what would I do without you?"

"That's my girl," he replied. "So you're doing okay then? Getting over that cold?"

"Yeah. Thanks for checking up on me, Chad."

"No problem, Sonshine. Hey, I gotta run. Filming matters."

"Okay. Will you stop by tonight?"

There was a pause. "Um, yeah." His voice cracked. "I'll be there."

"O-okay, Chad. Bye, I love you."

"I love you too. Feel better, sweetheart." And he hung up. I'm not really sure when Chad became a softie, but I kind of like it. I mean, four months ago he wouldn't have ever called me sweetheart. Aww, he can be sensitive!

I smiled in serenity as my eyelids fluttered shut. And I knew that most likely, the next time I opened them, Chad would be there.

SPOV (7 p.m.)

I rolled over in bed, looking at the clock. Wow, I had slept for a long time. Wait, Chad should be here by now.

I sat up abruptly and was greeted with an empty house. My mom still lived in Wisconsin, and I had moved back to my house after I had gotten my memory back. To be honest, I kind of missed living with Chad, but I guess all good things have to end, right?

Sighing, I picked up my phone. I felt like a neurotic girlfriend. As the phone rang, it went straight to voice mail. 'CDC here, what it do! Leave a message, and if you're important enough, well, I'll think about calling you back! Peace out suckas!' BEEP!

"Hi, Chad? When you get this message, call me back. Are you stuck at work or something? I really miss you. Well, I guess I'll see you tomorrow then. Bye." I hung up my phone feeling disappointed. Chad always calls before bedtime though, so I guess we'll sort things out then.

CPOV

I sucked in a deep breath, my eyes closed tightly. I couldn't do this anymore. I mean, granted, it just started yesterday, but I just didn't think I could stand it.

Slowly, I moved forward, awaiting all of the possibilities that could await me as I entered.

SPOV (11 p.m.)

I sighed, letting my eyes slowly close, my thoughts drift away. So what if Chad didn't call? I mean, it isn't like he's cheating on me or something. Is it?

I shook my head. Chad was amazing; he wouldn't do that. I loved him and he loved me. He was just busy tonight, that was all.

I sighed again, letting my head fall back onto my pillow. Chad was just busy. And I needed to believe that. If only I had been at work today to notice the changes in Chad's behavior. If only. As I drifted into the world of the dreamers, one thought remained in my head: I needed to talk to Chad tomorrow. Even if it killed me.

And that's chapter 1! I know it was really bad, I just wanted to introduce the changes. So anyway, tell me what you thought! I always love feedback! SMILES!
