Chapter One

"Chad Dylan Cooper! I cannot BELIEVE you!" Sonny yelled into the phone, "I DO NOT have Diva Issues! You did it AGAIN! You told the press! And guess what? Now, I'm in a Stupid Granma disguise running away from those STUPID IDIOTIC PEOPLE OF THE PRESS!!!"

Chad laughed over the phone, "I told you I'll get you back… And I did! I am Chad Dylan Cooper you know. Hey, remember to take a – "

"Hey, Chad! Dude, who you on the phone with?" A distant and familiar voice greeted.

"James?!" Chad exclaimed.

"JAMES?!" Sonny exclaimed even louder, "Ohmygosh! The Press! I'LL GET YOU BACK CHAD DY – "

"Ay! Sonny! Baby, where are you? I'll come pick you up!" James said into the phone with a voice as though nothing had happened before. Apparently, he'd snatched Chad's phone. Again.

"James! How… nice! Why are you… back?" Sonny said awkwardly into the phone. Well, the shock of his return must have gotten into her head.

"I missed you. You know, I did some thinking, and really Sonny. I regret how I was before. Before, I wanted everything I didn't have. But now, well, I want…" There was hesitation on the line.

"To go back where you came from?" Sonny hoped out loud.

"Oh, C'mon, Sonny. I know I was a jerk – "

"Oh, MAJOR understatement! You're the Mayor of Jerksville! Oh wait, no, that's Chad… You're the Mayor of the Mayor of Jerksville!" Sonny cried. Not this again. Just when she thought she could finally forget how stupid she acted around James, how infatuated she became over just a vase of flowers.

"Sonny, I – "James tried to explain, but Sonny had already cut off the line.

"Sheesh. That girl's got a temper… Nice." James said while handing Chad back his phone.

"Why are you back?" Chad asked, a little too straightforwardly.

"Damn, it seems like I'm not welcome here at all. First Sonny, now you. Dude, you believe me right? I'm really sorry for what I did last time." James said, with those puppy dog eyes of his.

"Why are you back?" Chad asked again, his voice hinting a sense of threat.

James looked at Chad for awhile, realizing that Chad was serious, and then he said in a challenging tone, "I want to win Sonny over."

"What?" Chad asked incredulously.

"You heard me. I'm gonna make Sonny mine." James smirked with confidence.

"You can't." Chad stated menacingly.

"Oh really? Watch me." James laughed and walked away, hands in his pockets and a triumphant smile showing on his face.

XxX

James is back. James Conroy. Her very short-lasting first love. The one that could make her act like a fool over just a stupid vase of assorted flowers.

Sonny shook her head. That wasn't important now. She was safe from the press now, but she had somehow, one way or another gotten lost. In Hollywood. She hesitated over calling Chad for help. He'd probably taunt her about it anyway. Not something that she needed.

Moooo~

An unknown number was calling her phone.

"Hello, Sonny speaking." Sonny answered cheerily. It probably was one of her friends that she had forgotten to add their number.

"Baby, it's me, James. I haven't heard you use that tone since ages ago." James said smoothly on the other line.

"James?! Why…How did you get my number?" Sonny asked.

"Chad. Duh. He gave it to me. He wished me good luck in my chase for you. Isn't he such a great buddy?" James lied.

Well, for one, James could sense the mutual feelings Chad and Sonny had for each other and he didn't like it one bit. He wanted to make Sonny hate Chad. And this was how he was going to start it. To make Sonny believe Chad didn't like her at all.

Sonny was shocked. Chad gave James her number? "Y – Yeah. Great." She replied emotionlessly, "Hey, erm, James? I gotta go. See you later."

"Wait!" James called, "Baby. Where are you? I'll go fetch you."

Sonny thought for a moment. Well, she was lost and he would definitely know Hollywood better than her. So why not? (Besides, Sonny wasn't really thinking right. You know, the whole 'Chad-gave-me-your-number' thing.)

"Yeah, sure. But I'm not sure where I am. All I see is a big red building in front of me… Erm… 'Whisky a Go Go'." She replied.

Even though she couldn't see James, she could guess that he was grinning his signature grin.

"I can't believe you don't know that place. Never mind. I'll go fetch you. Don't go wandering somewhere else. Be there in five." James said, then the line was cut off.

Sonny sighed, relieved yet troubled. She was going to meet James in five minutes. She didn't know how she'd take it.

Waiting outside that quiet red building felt awkward. People that walked past glanced at her, some even laughed. And she didn't know why.

Maybe that was why she felt really relieved when she saw a car pull up beside her and a familiar cute face smiling back at her.

"Gotcha, Sonny. Come on in." James smiled, patting the passenger's seat beside him.

His topless car was sleek white and had black leather seats. The colors contrasted so much, it was a real eye-catcher.

Sonny smiled and got into the car, and looked at James for awhile.

"Hey, James. Why are you back again?" Sonny asked.

"For you." James said and the expression in his eyes softened, "Sonny, I really am sorry for what happened the last time. Just give me a chance. Even Chad's given me his support."

Sonny looked away. "Sorry, James. I… Let me think about it, alright?"

She bent down and massaged her temples. She didn't know what to do.

She knew he was always making her miserable. But this was his best stunt yet. And he probably never planned it in the first place.

Chad really knew how to mess her up.

[A/N: Hehe....Channy is so cute. Anyway, James is back! =) What will happen to Sonny And Chad? Will Sonny really believe Chad had given James her number? ;D]

Please review! Thanks a million!
