Not in that scene.
A/N:
Hi! This is my contribution to ohhMOONshoesPOTTER's
"Green Eggs and Ham" Challenge. As she said, "In the episode
Battle
of the Networks' Stars,
Sonny lists all
the places she wouldn't
kiss Chad.
It is our
job, as authors,
to make sure
they kiss in all
those places." Please enjoy! :D

Really, guys? Really?
"Alright," Selena said as she and Sonny walked onto the fake Mack Falls set. "We're about to do the scene when you barge onto the set of 'Mackenzie Falls.' Now, when this really happened, do you remember how you felt?" The makeup artist touched up her face and she thanked her before turning back to Sonny.
"Ooh, probably mad 'cause I'm always mad when I have to go see Chad." Sonny rolled her eyes just thinking about it.
Selena nodded. "Right, but really you're mad at yourself because of how much you like him." She grinned.
Sonny agreed absently with a little smile. "Right…what?" Selena shot her a look. "Uh, I don't like Chad! I mean…" she lowered her voice register, realizing her voice was high pitched, like whenever she was in denial, "I don't like Chad."
Selena smiled and held out the script. "Sure you do! It's right here in the script."
"Wha-? Give me that." Sonny grabbed the script and scanned it, making a noise of disdain. "All it says is 'Fine!' 'Fine!' 'Good!' 'Good!' 'Fine!' 'Fine!'"
Selena smiled knowingly, crossing her arms. "It's not what the lines say, it's what's between the lines."
Sonny made a face. "Pff. Pff. There is nothing between those lines, trust me." Selena took out her voice recorder, and Sonny grabbed it. "Hear this. I am not in denial, okay? Which, I know, makes it sound like I am in denial, but I'm not. So, uh...we're good!" Awkwardly she handed the recorder back to Selena. "Here you go."
Just then, the three-named jerkthrob entered the Mackenzie Falls set and started yelling into his megaphone. " Okay, people. Here we go. 'Chad Dylan Cooper: The Chad Dylan Cooper Story.' Sonny barges onto Mack Falls set. Take one!" Looking at Selena, he took the megaphone away from his mouth. "Miss Gomez, on your mark, if you please. Thank you!" Seeing Sonny, he put the megaphone back up to his mouth and added, "No extras on set."
Sonny stared at him in disbelief, and when he didn't move, she curled her lip. "Ugh!" She turned on her heel and marched off the set.
Okay, people," Chad said into his megaphone as he prepared for the scene. "I want to see real energy and real emotion...And Action!" He handed his megaphone, beret, and scarf to his assistant and got into character as Mackenzie Falls. "Look, Portlyn, Summer's almost over and once fall comes back to the Falls, I need to be free. Shh! Time for talking's over."
Selena as Sonny marched up behind him. "What's the matter with you?"
Still talking to Portlyn, Chad shot back, "What's the matter with me? What the matter with—" He realized that wasn't Portlyn. "Wait, those words didn't come out of your mouth." He turned around, and there was 'Sonny.'
Selena as Sonny curled her lip at Portlyn. "You've got great legs, Portlyn," she sneered. "Let's see how they move." She stage-punched Portlyn in the face, and Portlyn fell back into a chair.
Sonny's mouth dropped in shock. "Uh!...Hey, I never punched her!"
The director shushed her and Sonny shot him a glare, but shushed.
"What do you think you're doing?" Chad asked 'Sonny,' highly affronted. "You can't just barge in here and interrupt Chad Dylan Cooper when he's in the middle of making 'Mackenzie Falls' magic!"
"I think I've made my point!" Selena as Sonny shot back.
"Good!"
"Good!"
"Fine!"
"Fine!"
" Good."
That's when Selena jumped Chad, throwing her arms and legs around him as they toppled over backwards, Chad's eyes widening and letting out a weak "Whoa!"
Sonny's mouth dropped open in horror and she yanked the megaphone out of the director's hands and leaped up, yelling, "Cut! Cut!" Her voice cracked. "Cut it out!"
She ran onto the set, yanking Selena and her lips off of Chad. "What are you doing?" she yelled.
Selena brushed herself off and helped Chad to his feet. "Reading between the lines, Sonny," she said in exasperation. "The tension between the two of you is so obvious."
Sonny could only stutter. She turned to Chad, who was…blushing. Chad Dylan Cooper was blushing? "Tension? There is no tension! No tension!"
Chad, too, was making noises of dissent.
Selena groaned. "Okay, fine. You do the scene, then. Show me."
"Fine!" Sonny retorted.
"No." Selena snorted. "I'm not starting that with you."
Sonny's lips twitched. "Good! I mean…okay."
Selena rolled her eyes. "And action."
"What do you think you're doing?" Chad asked Sonny, starting the scene again. "You can't just barge in here and interrupt Chad Dylan Cooper when he's in the middle of making 'Mackenzie Falls' magic!"
"I think I've made my point!" Sonny yelled back.
"Good!"
"Good!"
"Fine!"
"Fine!"
" Good."
Somewhere in the middle of this, Sonny realized she and Chad had walked closer to each other and were now only a few inches apart. "Uh…good."
Chad suddenly seemed to notice their nearness too. "Fine."
"Very fine."
Sonny didn't know what came over her, but she was suddenly feeling very drawn to Chad and his stupid gorgeous hair and stupid sparkly blue eyes.
Chad wasn't sure how it started, but he was suddenly falling headfirst into Sonny's chocolate-colored eyes and before he really realized what he was doing he was kissing her.
Against her better judgment Sonny's eyes fluttered shut and she kissed him back.
Suddenly they both realized what they were doing and jumped apart, putting their backs to each other. "Um." Sonny attempted to improv the rest of the scene, blushing furiously. "So. We're, uh, good?"
Chad swallowed. "We're so good."
Selena stifled her laughter.
