Sorry everyone for the long wait I haven't forgotten. May I present... Tawni's Birthday Party.

disclaimer : i don't own SWAC

CPOV

It was like deja vu. The club was dark with different colored lights rotating. The music blared and I had to yell just to talk to Sonny.

"Well she sure went all out."

"It is Tawny we are talking about." There was a huge banner over the dance floor that said "Welcome to Tawni Town!" And all of the waiters, bartenders and staff wore hot pink shirts that read "happy 19th birthday Tawni". The club was packed with people, it seemed as if she had invited everyone from Condor Studios and then some. The Teen Gladiators were by the food tables, and I even saw a few of my very own cast mates heading to the dance floor.

"Let's go say hi to Tawni." I said and we headed to Tawni's tent. Yes I said tent. There was a pink silk tent set up on the edge of the dance floor. Inside she was sitting on a throne. Again, yes a throne. And she had shirtless male models fanning her.

"Sonny! You came!"

"Of course we came! Wow what a party!" Sonny squealed in delight while taking in the sight of the lavish tent.

"I know..." Tawni said and tossed back her hair. Meanwhile a remix to Selena Gomez's Naturally came on.

"Oh Chad let's Go dance! Could you excuse us Taw-" when Sonny turned from me to Tawni, it was as if she and her groupies had disappeared.

"Weird. Well, Let's go!" Sonny grabbed my hand and led me to the dance floor. She started dancing and I just stood awkwardly.

Then she realized, "What you don't like the song?"

"Its not that."

"Then what?" I was just about to open my mouth and speak but she Figured it out, "oh my! Chad Dylan Cooper doesn't dance !"

"What! No, remember I danced with you at The Falls Party. I can slow dance, the fast stuff I just look stupid-and I don't know what to do."

"A www, well I can teach you." She grabbed my hands," I mean if you want..."

"Go for it."

"Well first off you need to loosen up, this song is fun! And just move to the music." She was still holding both of my hands so I just followed her directions. After about a minute, I just stopped thinking and started having fun. "See Chad! And you don't look stupid dancing!"

"Good to know!" I said and we continued laughing and dancing until the song finished.

"Yay!" She was jumping up and down and clapping,

"Thank you, I know." she just rolled her eyes, "I had a great teacher."

"That you did." We both just laughed in the middle of the dancing crowd as the song quickly changed to 'Fire Burning'.

"Let's put your newly found dance skills to the test."

"Your on!" I put out my hands waiting for hers,

"Uh-uh, that's the test. Your on your own." She began to dance and winked at me.

It actually wasn't that hard dancing on my own, it was fun, and It was well worth it to see Sonny's smiles and her funny dance moves. We were now out of breath and thirsty. We were heading to the bar, when Tawni stopped Sonny, "Having fun?"

"Yes you picked great tunes."

"I know," they continued chatting and I just looked around the place and then up to the balcony that overlooks the dance floor, and there he was. Devon with a pink drink in hand (which I would later learn was called a Mar-tawni). He lifted his drink as if to say cheers to me , chugged it down and mouthed "watch it." And saluted goodbye. What the hell, this guy can sure hold a grudge.

"Chad, Tawny and I are going to the tent, r u coming?" Sonny asked.

"In a minute I'm gunna get us some drinks, meet you there."

-tent-

Tawni had all of the drinks named after her for her party, which was just really confusing. I came back with a pink Mar-Tawnis and a bottle of hot pink champagne. I stopped as soon as I entered the tent, it seemed empty.

"Anyone in here?" I called into the tent as I pulled away the silk opening to enter.

There was no answer so I continued on in, I figured the girls had just gotten sidetracked. I was placing the drinks down on a extremely ornate table just as I heard someone scream "Boo!"

I jumped back- dropping the Mar-Tawni. It was Sonny she was hiding in the corner behind an excess of pink silk. She was laughing so hard she could barely speak, "aw-w… bbb-abe…Iiii…"

"Look I brought you a Mar-Tawni and you repay me by almost terrifying me into a heart attack, wow tisk tisk…." I just stood shaking my head in mock disappointment. Boy was she cute when she had her little laughing fits….

Her laughter was beginning to subside, "Tawni had to go mingle with some movie execs, so I figured I'd stay and surprise you!"

"Surprise me you did, almost to death!"

"Awww I'm sorry , don't worry I'll make it up to you." she began walking past me.

" Yeah? How?" I said raising an eyebrow.

"Hmm I Don't know…" She trailed off. I turned around to see that she had settled with the champagne and was now sitting on one of the many huge floor pillows through out the tent. She poured to glasses, "Want some?"

"Sure" I joined her on the fluffy pillow and took a huge gulp- god the drink even tasted pink.

"Sorry again about scaring you, I was just trying to get you to loosen up. I mean I know you didn't exactly have a smooth first day back at work."

"Thanks."

"I'm sorry, I know CDC doesn't- wow, did you just say thank you to me for SCARING you?"

"yeah," I began laughing about the whole absurdity of her response. My girlfriend thought she had to feel bad about doing stuff like that. I pulled her closer, "Thank you for trying to make me feel better." I kissed her it was just a short innocent sweet kiss. I pulled away, "As my girlfriend you can scare me anytime." Her eyes lit up at the word "girlfriend". I guess I was yet to say it out loud to her, I just sort of assumed we were together since that whole event at the café when I heard her song, and we skipped town together. "I Love you Sonny." and I kissed her again. It was perfect- dare I say it just like they describe in books, as if time stops when your senses come to life and your body buzzes with energy. I repositioned myself to where I was facing her rather than turned to the side. She pulled away ever so slightly to where we were nose to nose looking into each others eyes, "I Love you Chad." Almost instantly I could feel one of those huge joyous smiles forming on my face, and before I knew it we were laying on the floor pillow kissing as if separation would result in death and the end of the world.

Thats it for now folks! I would've kept on but i'm at a stand still on how I should write the next part. Review! Tell me what you liked, what you want in the story's future.
