Ok so this is my first story ever, so be nice if it sucks.

Disclaimer: I own nothing.

I'm running. Running away from my home, my school, my dad, but really I'm running from all the abuse. My name is Alison "Sonny" Emily Munroe. I live in West Appleton, Wisconsin… or I used to live there, but not anymore. My mother, Connie Munroe died in a robbery when I was nine years old. After that my father, Jack Munroe, kind of went off the deep end. He forgot I was his daughter, started drinking and gambling, then when I would confront him about it he'd beat me. Soon I was getting abused every day. The only safe haven I had was school, not that I had a lot of friends or anyone was particularly nice to me, but I never got hit or hurt there, and I was really good at school. It's August 20th, my 18th birthday and I officially can't take it anymore. The worst part is I love my dad so much, but he doesn't love me. I'm going to L.A. so I can try to start my singing career. I don't even have clothes with me, just $300 I stole from my dad's safe. How will I survive?

I'm running. Running away from a bunch of girls chasing me, sometimes fame is such a burden. My name is Chad Dylan Cooper. I was born and raised in L.A. My parents are Laura Cooper and Jake Cooper. My mom is a pediatrician, the best in her field really, and my dad owns a chain of international hotels called Crown Cooper. (A/N: Sorry couldn't think of a name). But more importantly, me, I am the greatest actor of my generation. I work on a teen drama Mackenzie Falls, it's the number one show. As you might have guessed my family is rich. My parents and I live in the same house, but they're never really home because of work, so really it's like I live alone and they visit. I mean really? I'm 19 years old, I should not actually be living with my parents, especially since I have so much money. Actually today my parents are visiting me again. I duck into the studios and strut to my set, man life is good.

I just got off the bus, and now I'm at a loss… where do I go from here. I see a little Spanish food store and decide to go there. When I get inside a woman is having trouble talking with the clerk so I go and translate because I speak fluent Spanish. I tap her shoulder.

"Hi. Would you like me to translate? I speak fluent Spanish." She smiles showing of her white teeth and says

"Oh, yes please! I love the food but really don't understand them." I laugh a little, she seems really nice.

"What do you need?" She thinks and says

"These almond candy things… I have no idea what they're called." She has a sheepish smile but I know what she's talking about. I turn to the clerk and say

"Disculpe senor, donde esta la turron?" (A/N: sorry if the Spanish is wrong, I got it off google translate). Turron is the name of the almond candy she wants. Realization washes over his face, he smiles jumps up, and goes to get it. He came back and gave the woman the package. She smiled and said

"Thank you so much this is exactly what I wanted!"After she paid she started to leave but then she turned back around and said

"Oh gosh I'm so rude! I didn't introduce myself. Hi, I'm Laura Cooper. You are?" I liked having someone actually smile nicely at me so I grinned back and said

"I'm Sonny Munroe. I just got to L.A." she looked interested in me, I haven't had that in such a long time, I'm really starting to like her.

"Oh wow! So how's everything going so far? Did you find a nice apartment? You here with anyone? Any troubles? Did you find a job yet? Are you in college?" I started to laugh, that was a lot of questions.

"No to all of those, I literally stepped off the bus ten minutes ago." I didn't tell her about wanting to be a singer, my songs are really personal and I don't know her well enough for that.

"Wait! What? You have nowhere to stay? Do you have any money? A friend to stay with? Are you really all alone? You don't know anyone?" She was frantic, like she actually cares what the hell happened to me. I missed that, it felt so nice, I just have to be truthful with her.

"Umm… well you see about money, I don't have any and I also don't know anyone… well there's you but I mean we just started talking two minutes ago." She got a determined look on her face.

"You are going to stay with me." I was so shocked I could barely breathe.

"What! You'd really take me in? I mean it's like another mouth to feed and you don't even know me! I have no money to pay for rent or food or anything! As much as I love this idea and am so grateful for your offer, I can't?" I look down and try to stop my eyes from misting over, I have a way out, and maybe a chance at a normal life but I just have to go and screw it up.

"I don't give a crap about how much money you've got! Your ass is coming to my house and before you even ask, yes I have a husband and son, but if they object to you living with us then they can get the hell out of the house." She had a really determined look on her face and I couldn't help it, I jumped up and hugged her, probably squeezing her half to death. I was going to let go when she hugged me right back.

"Oh My Freaking God! Thank you sooo much, you have no idea how much this means to me. I promise I'll stay out of the way, you won't even know I'm there, hell I could live in your broom closet for all I care!" I looked like an idiot grinning from ear to ear, but I couldn't stop. She started laughing and asked

"Okay sweetheart, now where are your bags?" She started looking around, but I looked down and embarrassedly mumbled

"Oh umm… I don't actually have any." I didn't want to see her face, but I looked up when she put her hand on my shoulder. She looked at me with curious and sad eyes.

"What brought you to L.A.?" She asked me in a really soft voice, like she could tell it was bad. Tears formed in my eyes from memories, I couldn't tell her, it was way too soon, plus she'd probably think there's something wrong with me. In a choked voice I said

"It's c-compl-plicated, and no off-ffence but I just c-can't talk about it." She looked at me with understanding and hugged me, I haven't had someone comfort me since I was nine years old. She was like my personal guardian angel.

"Ok then you don't have to. Come on let's go. We can go shopping later, I've always wanted to have a girl I could spoil." The heavy mood lifted and I smiled at her.

"Thank you, sooo much. You have no idea how much this means to me." We smiled at each other and walked to her car.

"Holy shit! This is your car? Are you rich?" In front of me was a shiny silver Porsche and I had my jaw hanging to the floor. She laughed and said

"Yeah kind of, I'm a pediatrician and my husband owns an international chain of hotels, and my son is an actor." I suddenly felt very plain and below these people, I came from a small town, and the not so great parts of it too. These people are going to realize I don't belong with them. I just smile anyway and say

"Wow! That sounds amazing." She smiles back and we get into her car. I'm on my way to start a new life. God I hope it's better than the last.

Ok so there's my first chapter, sorry it's short but they'll get longer…I think. Ok so review, all reviews are appreciated.
