A/N:
Hello readers of mine. This is my 50th story! YAY! *party* Okay. For my 50th story spectacular (an iCarly reference. Lots of references in this fic.) I am posting a TWO-SHOT! :D Might be a three-shot, but I'm going for two. This is a special day because I rarely write anything more than one chapter. xD That's why I chose this story as my 50th story spectacular. xDD
The idea was my sister's. Let's give a big hand for her! *party* okay. I'm done.
A Lyrical Misinterpretation
by Pwnguin
So Random! Set ; Prop Room: 10:40 AM.
"Guys, guess what?!" Sonny exclaimed as she ran into the prop room to share some exciting (not really) news to her fellow castmates. Nico and Grady were playing Scrabble on the table, Tawni was blowing at her nails, and Zora was probably in the sarcophagus, or maybe in the vent system. Who knew.
Since no one answered to her "Guys, guess what?!", Sonny continued to tell her 'friends' about her exciting news, "I got asked to record a song!" She jumped up and down and squealed in excitement. Her castmates appeared unfazed. "Okay, okay relax, it's not that exciting," she said, more to herself than the dead crowd in the prop room. She took a seat next to Nico on the couch as Tawni strutted over next to Sonny.
"Really, what song? Who asked? Does it involve me?" Tawni asked.
"Umm, 'So Far So Great', some record producer from Hollywood Records, and no, it doesn't involve you," Sonny said.
Tawni frowned, "Then it's not very interesting to me." She stood up and left.
Sonny sighed and turned to Nico and Grady, "You guys think it's interesting, right?"
"YES!" Nico shouted.
Sonny smiled, but then immediately frowned, "ENZYME!" Nico shouted. "New high score, BOOYAH!"
Grady frowned, "No way! How could you — what the heck — .... What's an enzyme?"
Sonny groaned, "Hello, guys, about to record a song here. Anyone wanna tell me how cool that is? Anyone?"
Grady looked to Sonny, "Oh, I'm sorry, Sonny. I'll tell you how great that is once I beat this little CHEATER OVER HERE — "
"You're just mad 'cause I'm winning, you sore loser!"
"I'm not a sore loser! You're just a big, fat, lying, cheat — "
Sonny didn't get to hear the rest of the conversation since she left the prop room at this point to find someone to feel happy for her. Everyone on the So Random! set was either busy, eating, or uninterested. So, with no other options, Sonny decided to go behind enemy lines... to the Mackenzie Falls' set.
Mackenzie Falls Set ; Chad Dylan Cooper's Make Up Table: 10:55 AM.
The three-named-drama-geek was sitting in front of his mirror eating a strange dish that Sonny didn't recognize. She got behind Chad so he could see her in the mirror and said, "Sup, Chad."
"Sonny," Chad said. "What brings you to The Falls?"
"Oh you know," Sonny said, shrugging, "Just thought I'd stop by and let you know that I was asked to record a song for Hollywood Records."
Chad's eyebrows perked up and he smiled, "Really? That's interesting, Sonny. I didn't know you could sing."
"Well," Sonny said innocently, smiling, "You know, there are a lot of things you don't know about me."
Chad got up and turned to Sonny, "Like what?"
"Like... where I'm from!"
"Wisconsin."
"My favorite day of the week."
"Monday."
"What day I got to Los Angeles...?"
Chad scoffed, "Too easy, a Wednesday."
"What, are you some kind of stalker, Chad?" Sonny asked.
Chad laughs, "No. I saw you entering with your mom onto the set for the first time on a Wednesday. I knew it was a Wednesday because I watched Mackenzie Falls later on in the evening."
Sonny rolled her eyes, "Anyway. Back to the song. Isn't it great?"
"Yeah, yeah great," Chad said. "What song are you singing?"
"So Far So Great!" Sonny said. "I'm super excited. It's gonna be released exclusively on iTunes and maybe I'll be in the top 10 songs and — "
"That's great, yeah, nice," Chad said, bored with his own words. "Hey, the Tween Choice Awards are in a month and I like to get my dates early... so I kinda need...."
"Are you asking me?" Sonny asked.
Chad shrugged, "None of my castmates wanted to go so..."
"Oh, so I'm like your fruit cup when they're out of the chocolate pudding," Sonny said.
"What?"
"Never mind."
"So you'll go?" Chad asked hopefully.
Sonny sighed and rolled her eyes, "I guess, since you're Mr. Desperate," she mocked.
Chad rolled his eyes and changed the subject, "So when are you recording the song?"
"Like, in 10 minutes," Sonny said, looking at her watch. "Oh my gosh, I have to be there! I'll talk to later, Chad, wish me luck!" And she scurried off the set quickly.
Chad called out a "Good luck" but she wasn't able to hear it.
Hollywood Records ; Recording Studio: 11:30 AM
Sonny smiled into her microphone and looked over at the song lyrics again. She had run through it five times and felt confident about everything.
"Okay, Sonny," the man behind the glass said. She had forgotten his name, it was hard to pronounce anyway. "Whenever you're ready, just give me the thumbs up."
She took a deep breath and flashed the thumbs up sign. She wondered if she'd win any awards for the song. What if she got nominated for a Tween Choice Award? Tween Choice Award. Hey. I'm going with Chad to that. I'd thank him if I won. "Thank you everyone for this award, but most of all, I'd like to thank my castmates, and the star of Mackenzie Falls, Chad Dylan Cooper! This is such an honor." Hey, what if So Random! beat Mackenzie Falls for the Best Tween Show award? That would be awesome. I could rub it in Chad's face. Chad. Chad. Chad. Chad Dylan Cooper. Chad Dyla—
The instrumental started to play in her headphones. Her mouth was singing the song, but her mind was singing Chad Dylan Cooper. Chad Dylan Cooper.
A/N:
I feel like writing a disclaimer.
If I owned Sonny With A Chance, my fic If I Want To Kiss You, I Will would be how the last scene in Battle/Network played out.
I don't own Scrabble, Hollywood Records, So Far So Great, or iTunes.
I'm incorporating titles of Demi Lovato's songs into the writing. There was 2 in this chapter, one of them being So Far So Great. Can you find the other one?
There's a Hannah Montana reference too... but that one is obvious. Wanna point it out? Let's see how many of you actually read the author's note... just for fun. :D
And as for the "Enzyme" thing, I remember watching an old episode of What I Like About You and Val and her boyfriend were playing Scrabble and that just happened to be worth a lot of points. xP. I suck at Scrabble.
Part Two Coming VERY soon. (:
please do not just favorite. tell me WHY you liked it. (: You're going to get a PM from me anyway, so why not just tell me now?
