"Well are you going to dance or not??" Tawni asked as she got down with her bad self in the middle of the dance floor.
Sonny stood there for awhile debating whether to just let loose for this one night and have fun or just be her usual innocent self.
"You know what, I'm going to just let go and be free. I'm not going to let anything or anyone stop me!" Sonny said out loud, mostly to herself.
Tawni through her hands up in the air and let out a wild "Woo!" and danced along side Sonny.
They were at The Silver Pineapple dance club. It was the newest hottest celebrity hangout in town. Tonight it was ladies night. Tawni suggested it at the last minute after rehearsal. Sonny was kind of hesitant about it at first, but Tawni never really invited her to places like this. So you really couldn't blame her for going with.
Music was blaring all around them. The heat from all the bodies moving around the two was getting unbearable.
"Tawni!" Sonny shouted above the music to get her friend's attention, "I'm going to go get some drinks!"
Tawni gave her a thumbs up, and then continued dancing by herself.
Sonny pushed and shoved her way through the crowd, hoping she was going in the right direction to the bar. After about what seemed like 10 minutes, Sonny finally escaped the huge mob of people. She spotted the bar and made her way over. When she reached the bartender, she gave him her order of two bottles of water. She leaned her head on her hand and looked out over the mass of people thrashing throughout the dance floor.
"Hey, you come here often?"
She turned around abruptly to her left to find Chad Dylan Cooper standing beside her with a smirk perfectly placed on his face.
"What do you want, Chad?" Sonny asked with annoyance.
The bartender placed the two water bottles on the counter in front of Sonny as she gave him the money for them. As she reached for them, Chad quickly snatched one of them. He untwisted the cap and brought the bottle to his lips.
"Hey! What the hell? That wasn't for you! I got these for Tawni and I!" Sonny shouted at him.
He dropped it from his lips and looked at the now half empty bottle.
"Huh…Anyways I came over here to see what you were doing here. You usually don't find a So Random! hanging out in a club like this," he replied with a-matter-of-fact tone.
"Well, for your information, Tawni invited me to come-"
"Ah, should have known she would've dragged you into doing something like this," Chad replied with taking another swig from the water bottle he still had not returned to Sonny.
Sonny suddenly grabbed the water out of Chad's hand and retorted "Well for your information, it was half my idea to come, so she didn't drag me here."
"Was it, Sonny, was it really?" He asked, trying to put his charm on Sonny.
Sonny just stood there with an annoyed look on her face and crossed her arms over her chest. "Yeah, I'm going."
She turned to leave to return back to Tawni. But that turn was never completed due to the fact that a hand positioned itself on her arm, stopping her in her tracks. She turned around to face Chad, who had an adorable grin on his face. Sonny's stomach couldn't help but do a little flip. Curse you stomach, she thought to herself.
"Wait, why don't I buy you a drink?" Chad said, still trying to use his charm on her.
"Um, yeah, no. I don't drink. But thanks!" She replied with a fake smile and sarcasm dripping from her last sentence. "Besides, I've got to get this water bottle to Tawni. She's probably wondering what's taking me so long."
"I think that's the least of her worries," he said as he nodded toward a table in the back. "Don't worry about Tawni. It looks like she'll be alright."
Sure enough, Tawni was in a deep make-out session with some random guy. Her hair was on the near brink of total disaster. She must've been drinking without me knowing, Sonny thought disappointed.
"So how about that drink?" Chad said, snapping Sonny back to reality.
Sonny turned around to face Chad. He still had that adorable- er, stupid- grin on his face. Again, Sonny's stomach did a little flip.
"Chad, we can't drink. We're not of age," she replied.
"That's never stopped me before. Come on, just one little drink."
Sonny looked back over at Tawni and the random guy, who were both still all over each other. One little drink never hurt anybody, did it? She questioned herself. She looked back over at Chad. He smiled.
"Fine, but only one!" She demanded.
"Yes, ma'am." Chad smiled in a triumphant way.
He took Sonny's hand and lead her in the opposite direction of Tawni. She could have sworn she felt all eyes were on her. Even the glares from the jealous girls. Sonny couldn't help but blush. She looked over up at Chad, trying to see if he noticed the people staring at them. He actually looked oblivious to all the stares. Of course, he's probably used to being stared at all the time, like he feeds off of it.
Chad looked down over at Sonny and smirked at her blushing. "New to all the people? This is what it feels like to have your show as number one."
Yep, that was Chad for ya. For a second, Sonny believed he was actually being nice until this remark. Chad noticed the change in Sonny's face, so he winked at her. Or maybe he was being nice.
Weird.
"Chad, where are you even taking me?" she asked, a little worried.
"Just to my VIP room, so we can get a little privacy," he winked.
Sonny couldn't help but blush twice as much, which made Chad release a little laugh. She couldn't believe how Chad was acting tonight. He must've been drinking a little before coming here, just like Tawni had done. However, she couldn't lie. She liked this Chad a lot more.
When they finally reached their destination, Sonny realized they stopped at a door. It had Mackenzie Falls inscribed on a golden plaque, placed in the middle of the door. Chad pulled a key out of his pocket and stuck it in the keyhole. He twisted it and pushed the door open. Chad placed his hand on Sonny's back and guided her into the room. Sonny took in her sights. The whole cast of Mackenzie Falls occupied the large room. There was a bar in the far corner. Booths bordered the walls. Then there was a stage in the middle of the room, which held a small band playing some rock song. The lights were slightly dim, with few candles lit.
Chad led her to the bar in the corner. On their way there, Sonny felt the glares from the entire cast upon her back.
"Don't worry about them," Chad said reassuringly. When they reached the bar, Chad asked her, "So what will it be?"
"Um, I'm not sure if I should be drinking. I mean, I'm going to be driving Tawni home." Sonny babbled.
"Oh, come on. Besides, it looks like she'll be going home with that one guy tonight." Chad winked.
Sonny debated within her head. Come on, what's one drink? Um, disaster! Well, no not really. It's not like I'll be having 20 drinks. But what if Chad pressures you to have more? You know, I believe I know how to say NO. Fine, but don't come crying to me when it happens. Whatever.
"I guess I'll be having whatever you get," Sonny gave in, "But only one, Chad."
Chad smiled, "Yes, yes. I know." Then ordered their drinks.
When the bartender gave Chad the drinks, he led Sonny to a booth that seemed secluded from the rest of the room. Sonny slid in on one side and Chad on the other side. She took a sip from her glass and had to admit, it wasn't that bad. When she glanced over at Chad, she noticed his was almost half gone already.
"Chad, you really shouldn't drink that much." Sonny sighed.
"Hey, don't worry about me. I'm Chad Dylan Cooper. I can do anything." He smirked.
"Chad, seriously. I'm not kidding." She tried.
Chad took his glass and drank the rest of his drink in one swig. "Yeah, neither am I."
Chad raised his hand and motioned to the bartender for another one. A random waiter come over with two drinks instead.
"Chad." Sonny said with sternness this time.
"Sonny." Chad mocked after drinking the second one dry.
"I'm sorry, but I can't sit here and watch as you drink yourself to complete wastefulness." Sonny said as she began to stand up.
"Sonny, wait! I'm not going to become drunk." Chad followed suit, but not without stumbling a little, catching himself on Sonny's arm.
Sonny glared up at Chad.
"Well maybe I am a little, but thats never really hurt anyone, has it?" he asked.
"I guess not, but-"
"Then what's the problem?" he smiled.
"The problem? The problem is you, Chad! You and your uncontrollable thirsts for alcohol!" Sonny yelled, causing a few people to stare.
Chad noticed the stares, realizing he couldn't have a Random yell at him like he was a child. So he decided to act cool about it.
"Sonny, babe. Look, I know you like me, and that you really care about my beings, but I'm a big boy and can take care of myself. Okay?" he smirked.
Sonny's face went red with anger and embarrassment, with a little shock, all at once.
"Chad Dylan Cooper!"
"That's my name, don't-"
"Now you listen here!"
Chad went silent.
"There is no possible way that I could ever like someone like you! You are a rude, selfish, little brat! You think the whole world revolves around you. Well news check, it doesn't."
Chad was speechless. No one has ever talked to him like that before in his life.
Since he didn't say anything, Sonny stormed away. She opened the door and slammed it right behind her. Chad stood there for awhile, then sat down at his seat in the booth. He noticed he still had one drink remaining. He picked it up, stared at it for a few, then chugged it away.
