Previously on 2012:
"What if it was something more...like a neck injury?"
Chad shrugged. "I don't know."
Sonny smiled and took small steps towards Chad. "I do."
"What?"
"I wouldn't have a chance to do this." Sonny leaned in.
Chad grinned and took the small of her back.

(Sonny's POV)
I leaned in towards Chad. He seemed pretty into it, and I could tell he wanted to pucker up.
That's when I smacked him.
"Ouch!" Chad said. He rubbed his cheek (that I fairly left a mark on) and gave me a glare. "What's your problem?"
"You had a bug on your face, and I didn't want a fly to get in the way of our...moment." I explained, giving him a heavenly smile.
"Our moment?" Chad's smile brightened.
I nodded and leaned in again.
We were millimeters apart from each other, but that's when I heard a rumbling so intense, it's no match for the new season of The Secret Life of the American Teenager.
Chad heard it, too. He turned around, curious, and his eyes grew huge. "COME ON, WE HAVE TO GET OUT OF HERE!"
"What, what's happening?"
"No time!" Chad exclaimed, tugging me away from the site.

-Later...

Chad and I rushed to a central airport in the middle of the woods.
His private jet was waiting...of course he had a private jet.
He greeted his pilot, Herman, and explained to him the route...of course he hired a pilot to fly his private jet...Herman. Ellipses.
Chad turned to me. "Sonny, great news! We're flying to the Himalayans!"
I scoffed. "Why? Do you honestly think that a small plane would fly us overseas?"
He paused for a moment. "Er, yes, I do. Only the best fuel for the Chad Dylan Cooper's private jet! Come on, I've flown to Antarctica before."
"That's a lie. You hate penguins."
"Really?" Chad rolled his eyes. "Just trust me."
A tear ran down my cheek. I nodded, and whispered, "OK."
Chad smiled and led me to his jet.
When I actually entered it, I was awed. The interior was awesomeness on a stick. The seats were leather white, shrimp cocktails were being served, and there was a big, OBVIOUS plasma screen in the middle! I love big obvious electronic gadgets.
I took a seat next to Chad and looked out the window.
"Oh crap." I said.
"What?"
"Look out the window."
Chad did as told, and he started freaking out. "Uh, Herman, you might want to start the engines now!"
The plane started moving, but it wasn't fast enough. The elements were picking up on us.
"A wave." I whispered. Then, I looked closer. "A WAVE CARRYING NICO, GRADY, AND ZORA!"
Chad couldn't believe it. "Hey, hey, Herman, unlock the side door!"
"Yes, sir." Herman said over the intercom.
The doors unlatched in a jiffy. Chad was drenched with fear, but he knew this was the right thing to do. The water was rushing. "Nico, Grady, Zora, take my hand! GET IN THE PLANE! IT'S ABOUT TO TAKE OFF!"
I helped. I took Zora's hand, and Chad managed to pull Grady and Nico in.
"Herman, close them NOW! And lift!" Chad ordered.
"Yes, sir." Herman said.

We were now in the air, getting away from the giant wave destroying everything in its path.
Grady breathed heavily. "I thought we were going to drown."
I smiled. "You look hungry and tired."
"I am. Do you know how hard it is to swim to shore when a forceful current is dragging you away into more dangerous territory?"
"...No." I replied.
Grady shrugged. "Well, I do. Do you have any food?"
I pointed at the shrimp cocktail bar, and Grady ran towards it, worshiped it. Bowed down to it. Yeah.
Chad was talking with Nico, who was wiping himself down with a towel. I decided to drop by in their conversation. "Hey guys."
"Hey."
"Hey."
I laid my hand on Nico's shoulder. "You OK?"
"Yeah, but I'm dripping wet, and my muscles are aching." Nico complained.
"Sit on this big comfortable chair then!" Chad insisted.
"And you can play video games, too. We can't watch TV, though. There's no signal." I said.
Nico nodded his head in satisfaction. "Is cheese fondue involved in this?"
We all turned our heads dramatically at Zora who was scarfing down all of the fondue.
"No." Chad said.
"Chicken wings?" Nico asked.
"No." I said. "Sorry."
Nico sighed. "Hamburger?"
"No." Chad said. "Bro's gotta eat."
"Salad?" Nico asked. We all looked at each other...then we cracked up laughing our butts off. "Yeah right! You know, I'll just help myself from whatever's in the bar." He said getting up from the floor, crackling.

Fifteen minutes into the plane ride...
"Chad, how did you have this all planned out? I mean, how did you have this set up at the very moment we needed to get off land?" I just had to ask.
"Herman is always at the airport, 24/7. And I couldn't put me in danger." He scoffed.
"Oh."
"If I were in danger, then you would be in danger, too." Chad said. I looked into his eyes as he took my hand. "I want you by my side all the time. No ifs, ands, and buts about it."
"I don't know if this is the right to time to say this." I looked down on my lap.
"Say what?"
"I love-"
Suddenly, the plane's rear door opened! Grady and Nico were hanging on to the attached stools, Zora was grasping the seat, and Chad was holding on to the cushions. I was rolling down the aisle, screaming for my life!
I slid to the bottom of the plane, hanging on for dear life.
Chad ran down here, looking as scared as ever. "Sonny, take my hand!"
Honestly, I had no energy left. I couldn't. "Chad-"
"SONNY, JUST TAKE MY HAND, NOW!" Chad screamed over the flaring engines. "HERMAN, CLOSE THE REAR DOOR!"
I tried to grab Chad's hand, but I couldn't. It was just too far away, and I was afraid that if I tried too hard, I would fall. "I-I can't."
"Yes, you can!"
I looked into his eyes, and I closed mine. I tried one more time using all my strength, and I got a hold of his hand.
"Ok, good. Now I'm going to pull you up." Chad said. When he did, he wasn't strong enough. "SONNY!"
"I CAN'T DO THIS!"
"YES YOU CAN! You can do anything!" Chad insisted upon me. "HERMAN, CLOSE THE FREAKING DOOR!"
"I can't Mr. Cooper! It's stuck!" Herman said over the intercom.
"HOW DID IT OPEN IN THE FIRST PLACE?" Chad demanded.
"Something struck the lock system. A meteor, an asteroid, a giant rock, or a fat bird."
"Agh! Ok, Sonny." Chad looked at me. "Don't, DON'T, let go!"
"Bye Chad." I told him one last time.

I let go, and I plummeted towards the ground, or sudden death.


Sorry about the long...long...long wait. School (including summer assignments) not to mention a HUGE writer's block :)
Well, here's the question of the chapter!

POP QUIZ!
Do you think Sonny will survive?
