A/N I think maybe I should stop putting AN in front of everything. Black font=authors writing. Haha. Oh, by the way, I own nothing. Except this new character which will be coming in soon. Anyways- enjoy, review, wash your socks, do whatever you like.
"Chad! We made the second page of the newspaper!" Sonny announced proudly, holding up the paper frantically and practically shoving it in his face.
"Second page?! That wont do." Chad snatched the paper out of her hands and turned to the second page.
Sonny looked around the set while Chad read. The set didnt look different at all. Same set, same director, same snobs. At least So Random! changed up their furniture once in a while.
Chad closed the newspaper and handed it back to Sonny. "If only it was on the front page."
"That would be cool. But us getting married isnt really important enough to make the front page." Sonny admitted. Chad shot her look.
"Anything about Chad Dylan Cooper is important."
"Right, sorry. How could I ever forget?" Sonny asked sarcastically.
"Why you!" Chad picked up Sonny by the waist, spun her around in the air, set her back down, and kissed her lightly on the forehead.
"So what did your parents say when you told them?" Sonny finally asked.
Chad ran his hand through his hair.
Silence.
"Well?"
"I-uh-well...whats that Bob? Yeah, im coming!" Chad tried running away but Sonny grabbed his arm.
"Ok 1, There's no Bob that works for MacKenzie Falls. He works for us. 2, you didnt tell them, did you?" Chad pulled away from Sonny.
"Im waiting for the right moment."
"Mhm. Right."
"Really, I am."
"Oh, I believe you Chad."
"No you dont. I can hear it in your voice." Chad said, proud that he figured something out.
"Chad its sarcasm, your supposed to hear it in my voice!" Sonny yelled obnoxiously. A few people stared, then got bored and went back to work.
"Whatever. But you have to believe me when I say im waiting for the right moment." Chad said seirously.
Sonny sighed and thought about it. Was he really waiting for the right moment? Or was he just too scared to tell his parents he was getting married at age 19?
"Sonny, if were going to get married, you have to learn to trust me." Chad looked her straight in the eye.
Sonny looked away from him. "Fine." She mumbled.
"Huh?" Chad raised an eyebrow.
"I said fine, I believe you. Just tell them soon, please?" Sonny pleaded.
"Alright, I will. Why do you want me to tell them so badly though, Sonny?" Chad questioned.
"Im nervous to know what they'll say. What if they disapprove? I wont be able to be with you, Chad." Sonny looked away from Chad again.
"Look at me, please."
Sonny looked at Chad and sighed loudly.
"No matter what they say, were getting married. Because Chad Dylan Cooper does things his way."
"Hey Tawn." Sonny mumbled as she slammed the door behind her and slinked down on the couch.
"Where were you? You just left all of a sudden without telling me." Tawni grumbled as she put her mascara on. No suprise.
"I told you I was going to see Chad and show him the newspaper, remember? Do you ever listen to me?" Sonny layed down fully on the couch, her feet just barely hanging off the side.
"No, not usually. Hey, your mom called me." Tawni made a weird face along with the comment.
"My mom called you? Why wouldnt she call me?" Sonny sat up and pulled her phone out of her pocket.
1 missed call: Mom.
"Oh, I left my phone on silent!" Sonny laughed in relief. Tawni just shrugged and continued to put on makeup.
"So did you answer when she called?"
"No. Its your mom. She kinda freaks me out. Like how you do."
"Thanks alot Tawni. Youre a true friend." Sonny was getting tired of using so much sarcasm in one day. Tawni just ignored her.
Sonny redialed her mom and went into the closet to talk in privacy.
"Hello?"
"Mom, hey its me." Sonny replied cheerfully.
"Hey sweetie! Hows your day?" Her moms voice cracked from the other line.
"Its fine, I guess. Me and Chad made the newspaper, if you didnt see yet. Hey mom are you sick?" Sonny asked, worried about her moms health. Her voice sounded raspy from the other line.
"No, no im fine. Thanks for worrying though, honey. I did see the newspaper! Im so excited for you two! How did Chads parents react when they heard?" Her mom asked eagerly.
"Well, Chad didnt tell them yet." Sonny explained. She didnt know if she should tell her mom that or not, because she might think Chad was a whimp for not even telling his own parents. But her mom always said to tell the truth. So Sonny did.
"He didnt?" Sonny could hear the confusion in her voice.
"Yeah, he said hes waiting for the right moment." Sonny added. Maybe this would redeem Chad a bit.
"Oh, I see." It worked. "Well, I still havent met his parents."
Danget. Sonny almost forgot about it. It would be really awkward, them meeting for the first time. But, it would get less and less awkward each time. There had to be a first for everything. You cant just not meet your son-in-law's parents.
"Well, I'll ask Chad and we'll get together sometime. Theyre really nice, mom. I met them about 2 weeks ago. Then we had lunch 3 days ago."
"You met them twice, and Chad didnt tell them that youre engaged either of those times? Do they still think youre just dating?"
"Yeah. But he'll tell them mom, I know he will. Or they'll just find out themselves in the paper." Sonny reassured.
"Ok, well I have to go sweetie. I'll talk to you later."
"K bye." Sonny hung up quickly and slid the phone back into her pocket.
"Your mom still hasnt met his parents?" Tawni asked, surpised.
"You eavesdropped!" Sonny whined and walked over to the couch.
"You were talking really loud." Tawni laughed.
Sonny sat down on the couch again.
"No, she hasnt met them yet." Sonny told her. Tawni already knew that though, she was eavesdropping.
"Theyre not nice to the parents of the girlfriend." Tawni explained.
"Im his fionce now, Tawni. And how would you know?"
"I dated him when we were like, six. Remember?" Tawni said, still putting on makeup.
"And his parents werent nice to your parents?" Sonny asked, getting a little scared. She didnt want his parents to ruin everything.
"Nope, not at all. They hated my parents. They never said hello, they just scowled and shook my parent's hands once. Then they never talked to them ever again. So Chad and I broke up."
"Well, that was when he was younger. Maybe they've changed." Sonny hoped.
"If theyre nice to your mom, then I wont wear makeup for 2 weeks." Tawni bet.
Uh oh. Tawni betting she wont wear makeup for 2 weeks? Tawni would never bet such a thing, unless she knew she would win.
So she knew she would win.
