Alrighty, here's part 5.
Hope you're as excited as I am. :] This is a good'un.
Again, please review. :]
The voice was familiar; more than welcome.
She turned, making sure that her ears weren't deceiving her.
Her breath hitched in her throat when she caught sight of a dripping wet Chad Dylan Cooper, standing no more than just a few yards away.
"Please, don't say anything," he plead as she opened her mouth to speak. "I...I need to get this off my chest," he said to her, moving about two feet closer, still not ready to stand right in front of her when he poured his heart out.
She bit her lip in anticipation; both curious and worried about what he was going to say.
"Look – I...I had this whole long, in depth speech planned out. I knew...exactly what I was going to say, and how I was going to say it. But...well, now that the moment's finally here, I honestly can't remember a single word of it." He had to shout a bit to be heard from that distance over the rain.
In spite of her self, Sonny chuckled a bit.
"I know. The Chad Dylan Cooper forgetting his lines," he replied with a slight laugh.
He fidgeted around a bit before continuing. He let out a breath that he hadn't even realized he'd been holding in. "Wow...this is a lot harder to say than I thought...You know...you're a really difficult person to deal with Munroe...You just don't seem...don't seem to realize how simply...amazing you are." Chad was so encompassed in his rant that he didn't realize that, ever so slowly, Sonny was inching toward him. Now, she was but three feet away from him.
They stood in silence for a few moments. She was taken aback by how well defined his muscles, which she could see through his soaked pastel, cotton shirt, were. She studied his face, wondering what he was going to say next, hoping that this little rambling of his would end with him telling her that he felt the same way that she did.
Meanwhile he watched as the rain came down hard, streaming down her porcelain white skin and her ruby red lips; studying every inch of her peaceful countenance as if, once he spoke his feelings, he'd never see it again.
At that thought, tears began to well up in his eyes. It became difficult for him to speak.
"I-I," he choked out, but was stopped by Sonny's finger on his lips;he hadn't even noticed her move.
"Shh," she silenced him, a comforting expression on her face. "You talk to much."
She laid her right hand gently on his chest as she stood on her toes and leaned in, her lips just barely brushing his as she whispered, "I love you."
She closed the gap, softly kissing him as the rain beat down on them and everything around them.
He deepened the kiss and wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her close with no intention of letting go.
She snaked her arms around his neck and giggled as he suddenly lifted her off the ground and spun her around.
With her feet safely back on the ground, she slowly pulled away to see a grin on his face to match hers.
"I guess Pablo was right," she said softly.
"Hmm?" Chad mumbled, his face buried in her now soaked hair.
"He said," she whispered. "That I deserved to be happy. And that...that I should tell you how I felt."
Chad lifted his head and cupped her face, stroking her cheek with his thumb, whispering to her. "You deserve the world."
She gave a half-smile before he leaned in and gently kissed her plush lips.
As they broke apart, the rain began to fade away until, finally, it halted all-together.
Awww :]
What a sweet ending.
And of course, I just had to go ahead and ruin it with me obnoxious author's note, didn't I?
Shame on me. :P
Anyway, expect bonus chapters eventually. I'll work on those if I get bored or have a good idea for one. But, till then, there's another story I want to work on. You know, along with Blue Line to Wonderland and What About Chad? I owe you guys updates on both of those.
…And everything else I've posted...
Hmmm....Might want to get on that.
I have at least one chapter done for both. I just wanted to finish them both before I start posting them. That way you guys wouldn't have to wait forever between chapters...which is kind of ironic if you think about it.
After that, what of my already started fics do you think I should work on?
Oh, and I began a few other things in my notebook(s). I've started a SWAC-Big Time Rush Crossover (Which you guys probably won't see for a little while), a multi-chap based off of a line from one of the early season 1 episodes, AND (something that you'll actually see soon) I've begun yet another series of one-shots. Just like with Problems and Hum Along, I'm going to have them all under one document. I plan on calling this series of one-shots They're what give her that sunny disposition. If you have any better ideas for names, tell me now. If I like it, and you give me permission to use it, you'll get a shout out in the first one shot. :]
