I bet that no one out there is ready this story anymore since I haven't updated in almost a year but the truth is that I got really stuck and didn't know what to wrtie anymore. I ended up taking a break from fanfiction all together and was only occasionally to update my Nikita Fic, but that was only every few months that I updated that too. I had a lot on my plate with school and all the activities that I joined. But I am truly sorry that I just stoped updating this story like it wasn't important. The truth is I was never planning to make a sequel to So Random Reunion and when so many asked me to, I felt obligated. Then once I did start the story I really didn't know where it was going. So I jumped ahead and tried to do the story from what was going on with all of their kids. Sonny with a Chance being cancelled really didn't help me either because that's where I got ideas from. So I stopped updating and I feel really horrible about that. I recently started going on Fanfiction a lot and got hooked on a new fandom and now I have an idea for a story for that fandom and I still the Nikita fic in progress too. And to tell you guys the truth I felt guilty for wanting to start another story without ending this one. So here it is, the final chapter for Everyday Life and probably my last Sonny with a Chace Fanfic. Hope you guys enjoy one last time! (Oh I jumped ahead again too)


Sonny's POV

I've seen a lot since I've first arrived in Hollywood. I've had friends and frenemies. I've found love and I've lost love. I got married in the spot light and I saw my life almost fall apart in it…

I typed as I started to write my memoir, I couldn't believe all that has happened in my life and when Marshall, (Can you believe he's still alive?), called and asked to write one I was shocked but after thinking about it, I realized that it was the best way to tell my story. Not Chad's, not Ari's, Dylan's, or Heidi's but mine. I needed to be able to write everything down and move on from that part of my life. My time in the spot light was over and I was ok with that, I was just enjoying my life as it was. I turned back to the computer and continued.

But through everything that happened to me, whether it was teen drama and having cast fights with Mackenzie Falls to someone out there telling lies about me and my family. I got through it by putting my head up high and remembering what my mother always told me: Stay Strong…

I had to stop after typing that for a little while, thinking about my mom always made me cry. It had to be at least fifteen years now since she passed. She was there for me with everything, my marriage to Chad, every one of my children's births and she was always around for their birthdays. She was always my rock; it takes my breath away every time I remember that she's gone. "Ok Sonny get it together," I told myself as I wiped my tears away and decided to start typing about another part of my life. My editor told me that the best way to write the memoir was to write it in pieces and to skip around otherwise I'd get hung up on a certain part and would never want to continue.

I will always remember my days at Condor Studios and So Random! The show that gave me my big break and the place where my future husband would end up proposing to me. I loved every single day that I spent there and I will be forever grateful to Marshall, So Random's director, for choosing me to be the newest cast member.

Throughout my time on So Random, I learned many things. I learned how to let my guard down and how to move on from something I loved so much. I made many good friends from my time there and I still hang out with all of them today. If it weren't for So Random, I don't think I would have ever made it to Hollywood. I will always remember all the times I had on that show and I will forever be grateful to everyone that helped me when I was there.

Remembering my time on So Random was a hard thing to do, after we the had the reunion back in 2020 and we all started hanging out I again, I was finally ready to move on and get closure, it was hard to remember those days now. My thoughts were interrupted when my phone rang. "Hello," I said.

"Hey mom," Ari started, "David and I were wondering if you would want to come over for dinner tonight? Ali really wants to see you."

"Honey that sounds great," I answered, "What time?"

I could hear Ali saying "Yay" in the background, she sure loved her grandma! "We were thinking around 5," Ari added, "Do you want David to come pick you up? Penelope will also probably be coming, is that a problem?"

"No honey it won't be," I said as I started to get up and walk around, "I don't need a ride; your dad will take me."

"Ok see you guys then!" Ari replied as we both hung up. I put my head in my hands, Penelope was coming to dinner. I've played nice with her ever since the cheating rumors started; I put up a good front during the whole wedding planning fiasco. But I didn't like the fact that she was a part of my life all of these years later. I hate to admit it but I was and am a little jealous. Penelope always wanted Chad when we were younger and I thought that she had moved on. But ever since she confirmed rumors of having an affair with Chad on their movie set, I haven't really trusted her and I don't really like being in the same room as her either.

"Baby who was on the phone," I heard Chad call from the living room.

I walked out into the living room to see him watching an episode of one of our favorite shows on demand. "That was Ari, she invited us to dinner."

"Oh that should be fun," he said as he paused the TV and came over by me, "babe what's the matter."

"Penelope's probably going to be there," I stated as he hugged me.

Chad looked mad at first but he shook it off as he started, "I know that you don't like her but nothing ever happened. Penelope just wanted fifteen more minutes of fame. She had just gotten back into the acting world and her first role was a very minimal one."

"I know, I know," I added, "I just wish that she wouldn't try to ensure that really happened. And I'm sorry for her with Grady cheating on her and all but did she really have to try to ruin our marriage so she could be loved again?"

"I don't know," Chad said, "How's the book coming?"

I shrugged, "Its okay. I'm almost done with the introduction. I think I'm going to work on the whole cheating rumor section since I'm thinking about it right now."

Chad gave me a quick kiss, as he said, "I'm proud of you baby."

"Even if I'm more famous than you?" I asked.

Chad looked shocked just like he did when we were teenagers and I told Mackenzie Falls sucked, "What? Where did you hear this?"

"From Heidi," I stated.

"That's so not far!" Chad exclaimed, "You know she loves you more."

"Relax Chad," I said after kissing him again, "She knows that because People is doing an article."

Chad relaxed a little bit after hearing this, "Oh. Can you still believe that with all our connections in show business, Heidi still picked a career in journalism?"

"I'm proud of her," I stated, "She made her way to the top all on her own just like we did! She is also really turning the celebrity magazines around too."

Chad smiled thinking about it, I know that parents weren't supposed to pick favorites but I knew that Heidi was his. Unlike Ari and Dylan that picked careers that we had connections in, Heidi proved herself. There was even a time when she didn't want anyone to know that she was our daughter and get special treatment for it, she even changed her name from Heidi Cooper to Heidi Anderson. I knew that Chad was glad that she learned to stand on her own two feet and I was proud of her too. "Yeah she really did. I forgot to tell you, Dylan skyped the other night when you were at Tawni's place."

"I really wouldn't call a nursing home Tawni's place," I started, "How's Dylan liking the tour?"

"He's really enjoying it," Chad added, "he said that his manager was getting ready for him to record yet another album. I don't know how you guys do it in the music world with all the press and the touring and then recording; it must be really exhausting!"

"Now you see why I stopped recording after my third album," I said bluntly, "But man Dylan really likes the business. I'm not going to lie; I'm really surprised that Angie hasn't made him give up his dream yet. It can't be fun raising their kids while he's out on the road all the time."

"The twins are only two and most of the time Angie is on tour with him," Chad added, "What time are we going to Ari's?"

"Around 5," I answered.

"Ok then you need to get back in that study and write, write, write," he stated, "If you don't get going pretty soon I'll pick you up and take you in there myself."

"Chad you're 64, that wouldn't work, you'd break a hip!" I explained and then laughed when Chad launched himself at me, "okay, I'm going, I'm going!" I made my way back to the study and when I got ready to type again I decided to type about my family instead of the cheating scandal, I'd have to write about that at one point or another but not today.

Both mine and Chad lives changed when we had Ari. We had no idea how hard raising a child would be, that was half of the reason why we waited so long before having Dylan. Turns out there is no rule book on parenting and no matter how many times you go through being a parent, it never gets easier. What does get easy though is forgetting all about your job, your friends, and all your responsibilities because all you want to do is take your kids and have a fun weekend with them. I am so grateful for all that my kids do for me, when I was going through a rough time with Chad they were there me. They made me realize that they were the best friends that I would ever have. Nothing else matters when you have kids, all that matters is watching them grow up and becoming amazing adults.

When I look at how my children have made names for themselves, I realize that I couldn't be a prouder parent. Ari, our oldest, started acting when she was eighteen and was in a few major movies. She decided though that she didn't want to act all of her life and turned to books, she starting writing one day and hasn't looked back since. When ever I read one of her many award winning books, I feel touched and I become even more proud of her. Even now that she is married and has kids she still finds time to sit down and produce yet another masterpiece.

Chad is as proud as me when it comes to all of our kids but I know when Chad's only son Dylan told us that he didn't want to be an actor that Chad was a little depressed that Dylan wouldn't follow in his footsteps. Instead Dylan followed in mine. At the ripe age of 16, he decided he wanted to be a singer and that is exactly what he did. He recorded an album that went number 1 instantly and his life has been a roller coaster ride ever since. Through the whirlwind ride he found the love of his life and they now have beautiful twins, a boy named after Chad and a girl that they named Kathy after my mother. I couldn't be happier for them.

When both Chad and I think of our youngest, Heidi Anderson Cooper, we both smile. As the youngest Cooper she had big shoes to fill. Both her parents as many people know are very popular and sought after actors. Her sister is an award winning author and her brother is a rock star that's way bigger than Justin Bieber ever was. I could tell when she was about 14 that she wanted to prove herself that she could stand on her own two feet and she didn't need the name Cooper to help her. When she was 24 and freshly out of college she changed her name to Heidi Anderson and started her climb to the top of the Journalism Empire. I am proud of all of my children but I am especially happy of Heidi's fight to get to number one with out any help. Heidi is the Editor in Chief of People magazine and I know that she couldn't be happier with where she is at…

I checked my watch and noticed that it was three thirty; I had a good half hour before I had to start getting ready for Ari's. I took break from talking about my kids, which I could on forever about, and decided to quickly talk about my entire So Random family since most of us weren't in the spotlight anymore; I knew that many people wanted to know what everybody was up too nowadays.

As everyone knows the whole cast of So Random and I are like a family. Even though we are old and gray we still try to hang out as much as possible. A lot has happened since we all sat down and had our reunion.

We ended up losing Nico to cancer a few years ago and Tawni hasn't been the same since. Shortly after Nico's death, it became apparent that Tawni had developed Alzheimer's disease and her children had to make the hard decision of putting her into a nursing home. I still tend to see her from time to time, and it surprises me how much she seems to be just like the old Tawni from our So Random days.

After the reunion, Zora went through a lot. She finally came out about her past of being in a relationship that involved domestic violence. She was becoming one of the most sought after models around. But one of her secrets from her past surfaced and she had to face it head on. I won't reveal too much since it's not my secret to reveal but a face from her past came back into her life and with that many changes happened. She finally got together with Grady and they got married and had a daughter they named Faith. She is now happy just staying home and planting her garden and being with her one true love.

Grady had a lot going on too. He and Penelope ended up deciding to end their marriage after 11 years because it wasn't working out for them. Shortly after that his TV show was canceled and he decided that he was done with show business for good. He went back to school and became one the greatest teachers a kid could ever have. Even though he's as old as the rest of us he still teaches and he loves the new role that he's been given as Grandpa.

We still tend to get together every once and a while but it truly isn't the same with out Nico. No matter when we hung out, Nico always had a joke for us. We all know how much fun he would have had laughing at all of us as our hair got grayer and we all got older. He will forever be missed by all of us.

After I was done, I had to breathe for a little bit. Nico was a great friend and it wasn't fair that the rest of us got to live out our whole lives while he ended up dying of pancreatic cancer. I could see how much it hurt Tawni when ever I saw her and I wish that one day she will be able to reunite with him and be able to finally get rid of her terrible disease.

After reading over what I just written one more time, I got up and got ready for Ari's. When we got there we had a blast. Ali and her little brothers played nice and told me all about their camping trip that David took them on. Penelope decided that she wasn't going to come, and in a way I was grateful for that. It was always so awkward whenever we all got together now.

Besides being a splendid author, Ari can also cook quite well. She treated us to a great ham and many other side dishes. Once dinner was over, I helped her clean up with her complaining that I didn't have too. Chad chatted with David about whether or not he could share any secrets on the new car models going to be sold at David's shop, but as always David said no.

Once the kitchen was cleaned, Ari sat us down with the kids and we all watched a couple episodes of So Random. I still laughed at the fact that at no matter what age, Ari still loved the show. We watched the episode that started it all for me, my very first episode, man I was young then! Before I knew it, we were watching an episode with the Check it out girls and Ari was teaching Ali the dance. Ari made me get up to show them how it was done and we ended up having a dance competition to see which Cooper girl was the best.

Once the night was over I hugged Ari goodbye and her being the good mother she was made us promise that we would call when got home. Chad and I laughed all the whole way back to our little cottage that we had bought right on the beach.

Once we were home I did as I promised and called Ari. After that Chad and I just sat up and talked for hours. We tended to do that ever now and then since we both retired from show business. We both liked retirement, we were hardly recognized anymore and we were happy just living everyday life.
