I know...I'm very slow at uploading...I'll try to get better, but I can't guarantee anything... I'm sorry! But if you stick with the story, you won't be disappointed!


"So, when you write out proofs, first make a T-Chart..."

"What's a T-Chart?"

Chad sighed, "Really, Sonny? Really?"

"Yes, really!"

Chad took the pencil from her hand. "Like this. See? A T-Chart." And handed it back. "We've been calling it that since first grade!" He mumbled to himself.

Sonny rolled her eyes. "How did I get stuck with you?"

"How did I get stuck with YOU? This is basic stuff!"

Sonny stood up out of her seat. "I know I'm not good at this stuff...that's why I asked for a tutor! Now...tutor!"

"You don't need a tutor...you need to go back several grades!" Chad was just as tired as Sonny. He was convinced that she had been trying to give him a hard time on purpose. "You know what I think? I think that you planned this!"

"What?"

"Yeah. That's right! You planned this, just to make my life miserable. You're just jealous because Mackenzie Falls came in first on Tween Weekly's Top 5 Most Popular Shows survey."

Sonny smirked. "Right. Like I would fail a couple of my tests on purpose just so I could bother you. Makes perfect sense."

"You know, I don't have to be here. I am sacrificing valuable time here. For what? A Random? Pft, pft!"

"No. You don't have to be here!" Sonny spit back.

"Good! 'Cuz I'm leaving." Chad turned toward the door.

"Good! 'Cuz I don't need you."

"Fine!"

"Fine!"

"Good." Chad walked out.

"Great!" Sonny yelled out.


'This is so not great' Sonny thought. She was sitting with her geometry book opened, trying to understand the gibberish on the page. Her mom was sitting in the living room, watching a new episode of Mackenzie Falls. Sonny tried to concentrate on reading the words on the page, but it was only giving her a headache. Finally, she slammed the book shut in surrender.

"I give up!"

"Shhh! Honey! This is an intense moment!"

Sonny walked into the living room to find out what was going on. Chad's face filled the screen. Sonny was mesmerized. Mackenzie was so sensitive and kind. He would have helped Chloe with her geometry any day... and would have had the patients of a snail! Why couldn't Chad be more like Mackenzie? Sonny found that she had drifted over to sit next to her mom. Both their eyes were glued to the T.V.

and they both jumped ten feet in the air the door bell rang.

"I guess I'll get it." Sonny offered.

"Hey!" Chad pushed through the door. "What's happening?"

Sonny put her hands on her hips. "What are you doing here?"

"What do you mean, what am I doing here?" Chad ran his fingers through his hair. "Don't I have a student to tutor?"

"I thought we already established the fact that I don't need a tutor."

"Oh, really? Then I guess I can just tell Miss. B. that you're ready for the test tomorrow."

"Ok. Ineedyourhelp." Sonny gave in.

Chad smirked. "Course you do." He grabbed Sonny by the hand. "Come with me."

"Where are we going?" Sonny hesitated.

"On a field trip." Chad smiled mischievously.

Sonny blushed. She couldn't help but get carried away when Chad looked at her that way. His eyes sparkled, locking their gaze. She felt her heart start to pound heavily. Her stomach was overturned with butterflies. Electricity passed through their hands. They both stood there, in a trance.

"Chad Dylan Cooper? In my house? No Way!" Sonny's mom fainted, pulling Sonny from her thoughts.

Sonny tried to hide the disappointment when Chad let go of her hand to check on her mom. Her hand felt comfortable in his, as if it were meant to be. 'Hold on. Did I just think that?'
