Sorry for the really long delay. I've been plagued with graduation practice and I've been pretty busy lately. I know you're all probably leering for the continuation of the last chapter so I'm not going to go on ranting. On to the chapter!

Disclaimer: I don't own SWAC. If I did, Sonny Get your Goat would never have happened. (Srsly, wtf?)

"I-I don't know how." Her expression was of pure virtue, and to Chad, it seemed almost a sin to corrupt it with what he was going to do next.

"Just show me what you got."

For some reason, unknown even to her, she trusted him. She trusted him enough to know he wouldn't take advantage of her, trusted him enough to believe it was the friendly thing to do.

Sonny pulled him down a feather-light kiss. The sensation was like a burning fuse, slow and trickling, but leading to a potentially lethal explosion of emotion. It was enough to take Chad Dylan Cooper's breath away. Chad lingered, trailing her soft kiss with many of his own.

Eyes shut in a gentle allure, the couple lay down on the couch, barely being able to support themselves amidst the flurry of hormones.

Sonny raised her hand, unsure as to what to do. What did girls do with their hands when guys kissed them? She was too embarrassed to move.

Chad ceased his ministrations to capture her gaze, transfixed by the confused expression on her face. He traced the outline of her jaw gently. "What's wrong?"

"I- I just don't know what to-" Chad sealed her lips with a touch from his thumb, silencing her.

"Think of this as practice. For future reference." He replaced his thumb with his lips, savoring the feeling of her lips against his. "You'll thank me later, inexperienced one." He smiled as he felt Sonny lean into the kiss.

"You place your hand on the back of his neck, gently, but firmly." He took her hand in his and raised it to his nape. "You pull him down, you make him want to kiss you." The inexperienced Sonny complied.

He brought lips to her ear, breath ragged and strained. "He'll whisper sweet nothings."

Sonny's breath hitched.

"It'll make you want to kiss him, but you have to make him work for it." Chad leaned back to study Sonny's expression. A look of determination mixed with an unknown emotion layered her porcelain countenance.

"Like this?" She trailed her fingers along the sharp contour of his face, leaving burning sensations as her touch left. Chad's brows furrowed.

"Yeah, exactly." He had to take control of his emotions. He was being schooled by the immaculate mother of Condor Studios.

"You capture his lips in yours, soft kisses, firm ones. Don't do the expected. Don't be predictable. Leave him wanting mo-" Sonny didn't let him speak another word. She did as she was told, planting soft kisses on his lips, pulling him closer, crashing them down, grazing them ever so lightly with her teeth. Chad shivered at her beginner's prowess.

Two could play this game.

He trailed his tongue against her lips soliciting a gasp from the unprepared pupil, granting him the permission he was dying to have. Sonny moaned into the kiss, the vibrations echoing her need in the most enticing way possible.

Sonny's hand hiked up Chad's nape, resting itself firmly on the back of his head. She wrung her fingers around his soft hair, pulling him closer. Chad's hands had found their way down Sonny's back, resting right on her waist.

Kissing Sonny Monroe was his release – a sensation never felt before. Slowly, the fuse ignited as it drew closer to the inevitable bang. Her soft lips on his fit more perfectly than any girl he had kissed. Her taste, her smell, her everything, it was perfect. And then he realized –

He had lost the game.

He had lost even way before Sonny had committed the dense mistake of saying she had never kissed a boy. He had lost when he had lied, downright lied, not about watching an episode of So Random, but everything else – his feelings, the denial, everything. He had fallen in love. He was in love. From the very beginning. The realization hit him hard, deer-caught-in-headlights hard.

The feelings were overwhelming him. Chad pulled away at once.

"Wow." Sonny breathed, barely able to sit up.

"Uh, yeah. Wow." Chad could only agree. He was still bothered by his sudden realization. "You sure you've never kissed a guy before Sonny?" Chad laughed, trying to push away the feelings.

Sonny smiled. "Never in my life, but that was good practice." She looked down to the floor, touching her lips with her fingers. The impression of Chad's lips on hers still lingered. She sat up and turned her eyes to the actor, whose eyes were now clouded with emotion. "Thanks Chad."

Chad snapped out of his brief zone-out and turned to her with a small smile. "For what?" Hope had filled his heart. Had she realized she loved him as well?

"If there was anybody in the world I'd want to learn this from, it'd be you." She smiled her genuine, blameless smile, "You're a great teacher."

Chad's smile faded. "That was your first kiss, right? You're not mad that you didn't get to share it with Nico?" He was digging for any semblance of faith left.

Sonny leaned back. "Nico's already had his first kiss." She grabbed a pillow and pulled it close to her. "And my mom always said that a first kiss is when you want it to be. When I find someone I love, and share that special moment with him, then that'll be my first kiss."

That stung.

"At least I know I won't be disappointing Nico, right?" She smiled and laughed playfully.

Chad couldn't laugh along with her.

"Is he the one you love?" He didn't turn to look at her as he asked; his gaze was lost in another dimension.

"I don't know yet." Sonny smiled sadly. "I'll find out soon, hopefully. Hopefully I won't have to search for long."

"Sonny?" Fueled with new purpose, he leaned back into the sofa, playing with his fingers. "Thanks."

"For what?"

"Will you stop stealing my lines?" Chad laughed.

Chad had just realized probably the deepest feelings he had harbored for anybody, and that was reason enough to thank the clueless brunette. "Just because."

Sonny laughed at his vagueness. "We should do this more often."

Chad raised his brow, surprised. "Are you serious? You're take- We're both taken." He had to remember he was still playing a role.

"Well, maybe we can hike up our relationship status to friends with benefits then." Sonny's smile widened, "If I'm going to survive the dating scene, I'm going to need all the help I can get."

Chad thought deeply before he replied. She was asking him to stretch the boundaries of friendship, to live a life of secrecy, to toy with his own emotions, to potentially get himself hurt.

He looked up at her. For her, he'd do anything. "When's the next class then?" They both laughed.

Right then and there the lights flickered back to life, the sound of the microwave very well confirming the power was back. The TV had turned back on, the same station playing out its latest featurette on Nico's grand proposal.

Chad stared at the screen. Nico may still be her boyfriend, but he didn't have what he had with Sonny. He was far more determined to change the course of the future.

"I can't believe they're still airing that." Sonny stood up to salvage the popcorn lying limply in the microwave.

"They'll get tired of it soon enough." Chad encouraged. "Still up for that movie?"

Sonny popped her head out of the kitchen door. "You betcha."

This is still T-rated, right? :D

So that was a short chapter because in the previous chapter I mentioned there'd be a bonus chapter on this one, and I wasn't lying. It's not very plot related, but at the same time it's sort of supplementary to what's going to happen in the future. If you're still a little bit on edge you can satisfy your little urges with the Bonus Chapter, if you aren't then you don't have to force yourselves. If you're stopping here, leave a comment about what you thought of the steamy chapter. :D

Additional notes: I have a few ideas for some new fanfics, a one-shot and a mult-chapter Alternate Universe type fanfiction. A lot of people aren't really into alternate universe fics for SWAC, but I'm hoping to change your minds with my fic (I'm very adept at writing AU fics, so you won't be disappointed). Don't worry; they're still going be in character. I have almost everything planned out.

Without further delay, Bonus Chapter 2

Tawni and Josh: Undercover

Chad and Sonny had left the studio at exactly o-fourteen-hundred hours on CDC's infamous black convertible and Tawni and Josh were hot on their trail, If by hot on their trail you mean trailing very far behind in Josh's beat-up old hippy van.

"I can't believe I'm letting you drive me in public in this beat up old hearse." Tawni was sanitizing her seat with spray sanitizer, covering her nose as the back seats smelled strongly of dead squirrel carcass.

"Don't talk about Lizzy like that, she's had a tough day." Josh frowned as stroked his dashboard lovingly.

"You named your van Lizzy?" Tawni looked at him, disgusted, "That is so tacky. At least name her something suitable like beat up old hag."

Josh glared at her as Lizzy spat up a large cloud of black smoke out her muffler before it sputtered into a pitiful stop along a deserted boulevard.

"She heard you."

"Oh shut up, we're walking from here." Tawni got out, taking her purse and clutching it tightly against her, shifting her eyes to check if someone was out to mug her.

"We can't just leave her out here!" Josh got out around back to check the damage.

"I'll call the towing service. It's not that big of a deal." Tawni shrugged as she made her way the sidewalk.

"How are we going to follow them now? We don't even know where they are." Josh sat down on the curb, lamenting the death of the only thing he called a friend.

"I'm tracking Sonny on her cell, duh." Tawni flashed her phone at the poor boy, "It's called the twenty-first century, ever tried living in it?"

"You and you're snooty rich gadget-y things. You're better off at The Falls." Josh scoffed as he got up to look at the tracker.

"I'll pretend I didn't hear you." Tawni traced her fingers along her touch screen, calculating Sonny's coordinates. "They're only a few blocks from here. We can still catch them. Come on!"

She pulled the mumbling boy by the shirt collar as if he were an accessory. He followed sheepishly, bidding his van goodbye.

They made their way down a few blocks before realizing where they were. "Rodeo Drive!?" Tawni looked around her, taking in the rich and posh atmosphere around her. "Why the heck would they be going to Rodeo Drive!?"

"Wow." Josh breathed as a woman who seemed to be a model walked past him.

"I can't believe Sonny went shopping without me." Tawni pouted.

"I thought you were mad at her." Josh popped up behind her, causing the blonde to jump in surprise.

"I am! And now that I've found out she's on a shopping spree with Pooper I'm even madder!" She stomped her high heels against the hard pavement.

"Woah now, we're not sure if they're here for shopping at all, Ms. Hart" Josh tried to calm her down.

"It's Rodeo Drive Josh, what else would they be here for?" Tawni scanned her app once more to see where they were exactly. "They should be here somewhe-"

She spotted them leaving a shop. Ducking behind a blue pickup, she pulled the clueless mail boy down with her in effort to remain incognito.

"I see them." Tawni narrowed her eyes at the two. You could hardly recognize them; they were clad heavily in clothes they wouldn't usually be caught wearing and darkly tinted shades. Sonny skipped happily along the street as Chad smiled along with her, carrying with him bags from the store they had just left. "Why are they dressed like that?"

"Uh, I think I know." Josh tugged on her sleeve as he stared at hoard of paparazzi and fans behind them.

"Ms. Tawni Hart?" A photographer asked quite timidly, suppressing the urge to just maul them. They looked like they were about to pounce.

Tawni bounced up to life and waved sweetly. "My fans!"

"Tawni, I don't think that's such a good ide-" Before Josh could get another word out the paparazzi errupted into a frenzy of flashes and a mix of oddly shallow and deeply personal questions.

"Ms. Hart! We heard you go shooting poor little furry animals to cater to your wardrobe! What's your take on this?"

"Ms. Hart, who's the new man!?"

"Tawni, what's your favorite brand of underwear?"

"Ms. Hart, what's your natural hair color!?"

"Ms. Hart, is it true? Did you really used to be a man?"

The questions were unending as the paparazzi got closer than they needed to be.

"Personal bubble!" The rabid mass of paparazzi drowned out her screams as it engulfed her. She began reciting her last words out loud, only to be pulled abruptly out of the crowd by a clammy hand.

"Tawni! Run!" Josh pulled her out of the frenzied mob and urged her to start running. They left the rabid photographers, confused in their own little abyss.

They ran, and ran, and ran some more. For someone so pudgy, Josh seemed to do pretty well with cardio.

It was almost half an hour before they decided they were safe. They took refuge in an empty convenience store. Josh took the liberty of sifting through the cheap glasses on a rack as Tawni sat herself down on a side table.

Tawni was out of breath and somewhere along the way she had lost one of her heels. "I can't believe you made me run like that! How could you?"

"Hey, I'm not the one dense enough not to wear a disguise before she goes in public. You should be thanking me for even getting you out of that mess." Josh defended himself. He held out a pair of sunglasses to the perspiring actress. "Here, put these on."

"Tawni Hart does not wear dollar shades." She turned away from him defiantly and crossed her legs, adamant.

"Well, unless you can cough up a few hundred bucks and we take a trip to the nearest Oakley store, you'll have to deal with this." He pushed them against her and she held them as they were drenched in radioactive muck.

"Ick. I'll just have my personal stylist come over and bring me a pair of my own, thank you." She turned around to fumble for her purse, only to find it missing. "My purse! M-my cell! My Coco Moco Coco!"

Tawni sobbed.

"H-hey." Josh prodded her on the shoulder as tears boarded the rim of her eyes. A prod or two later the water show had begun. "Will you stop it already?"

"Nothing's going to bring my Coco Moco Coco back." The tears continued flowing.

Josh fumbled in his pocket for something. Tawni guised her interest with a few sniffles and sobs. He took out something which looked to be a beat up tube or cylinder.

"Here." He held the tube in front of her. "Take it."

"What is it?" Tawni sniffed as she took a tentative look at the old-looking tube.

"It's your Coco Moco Coco. It's a few months old but it'll do." Josh looked around the store, trying to seem disinterested.

Tawni grabbed the tube and examined it. She recognized the scratched-up label. Eyes wide in realization, she held it against her cheek, caressing it tenderly. "Where did you get this? It's even in its old packaging!"

"I-I I took it from your dressing room a few months ago." He looked down, guilt-filled and bashful.

Tawni eyed him pointedly. "Why?"

"I just thought I'd grab a memento of you is all." He started fumbling with his fingers. No way was he admitting that he had a crush on her from the start. It was really the only reason he had given his consent to something as crazy as stalking her best friend.

"Clepto." Tawni taunted.

Josh frowned and sat down, defeated. He knew she was a diva, but her anger was somewhat warranted. He was borederlining creepy stalker dude.

"But thanks." Tawni smiled as she reapplied her lipstick and modeled it to her accomplice. "How do I look?"

"Perfect." Josh said lamely, still a bit hurt at her allegation. All the hurt in the world would not have prepared him for what was to come, because right at that moment, Tawni Hart had given him his first kiss.

On the cheek.

The light mauve tint of her lipstick stained his cheek as he held his hand up to touch the patch of skin the comedienne's lips had just left.

"Perfect." Tawni smiled as she finished off her ice cream and kicked her legs childishly.

So, what did you guys think? Leave me some reviews :D And watch out for my new one-shot and multi-chapter, coming soon :D
