Hey guys!

Yup, I'm starting another multi-chap. I know this means it's going to be hectic updating and I barely update as it already is with school and everything, but I'm going to try! A lot. I think the worst of school is over (or at least I've adjusted back… yep, it's taken me two whole months), so I hope to be on here more often. Maybe write another topic too (but don't worry, I'm Channy forever ;D).

Anyways, this might be my entry for MusicChannySkyscraper's Exactly One Year Challenge (it will if you guys find that it has potential!). I figured I'd start on it now as the idea was fresh in my head. Now, I present, the first chapter of 365 Days To Win Sonny Munroe!

~.~.~.~.~.~

It had been approximately two months, a week, and six days since Sonny Munroe had arrived to Condor Studios… not that he was counting or anything. Pfft… that was ridiculous. Completely ridiculous.

As he stared at his reflection, he spent what seemed like forever to sculpt his windswept blonde hair. He straightened his suit, fixed his pink and blue tie until in his opinion he had met perfection face-to-face. It had been a while since this was his usual agenda (two months, three weeks, and three days to be exact) and even if he considered himself to be the greatest actor of our generation, it had been obvious he was trying to impress someone. And for this sudden behavior to start right after the arrival of So Random!'s new cast member? What a coincidence.

The blonde, blue-eyed actor had been so set on his looks, it took him a minute to recognize a voice call out his name, but the second he did realize it, he knew exactly who it was. "Chad!"

"Sonny!" he said in the same tone she had used with him, only he was smirking. He had been expecting her visit all day. It was time for their daily argument. The topic being a "complete mystery" to Chad, but he was ready to argue. He'd probably never admit it, but this was his favorite part of the day. "What'd it do?"

The brunette walked in on the set and stared at him with skeptic eyes. "You know what you did."

Chad raised an eyebrow, "As a matter in fact, I have no idea about this nonsense which I'm guessing you want to tell me."

Sonny scoffed, "Please. Who else would put toilet paper all over the prop house?"

In response, Chad just chuckled, "Don't flatter yourself, Munroe. What makes you think that I have enough time to go all the way over to a place I despise to not talk about myself? That's completely irrational."

She sighed at this remark. "You're being ridiculous. I know you did it."

"You know, maybe you're just so attracted to me that you imagined me running into your little Funny Hut and making a mess. Or you're lying, just so you can come over here and talk to me."

"Oh gosh, Chad… you really are that self-centered," she shook her head, while trying to contain herself from laughing at his thought. She knew that she had better things to do than come to the Falls every five minutes. But that didn't mean she actually did those better things as opposed to going to the Falls. This had been her second trip today, and the first time Chad had been absent, so the visit was brief and pointless.

It was about time for their daily fight anyways.

"Please, you enjoy coming here and you know it," Chad said promptly. "I mean, there's no any other reason why this is a regular thing now," he gestured at the two of them, arguing back and forth.

Sonny smiled, "If I didn't know any better, I'd say you're expecting me to come every day. And you look forward to it."

"Look forward to a visit by a Random? Oh, Munroe, this just shows how much you don't know me."

"Rather be a Random than a drama snob," she pointed out.

"Diva."

"Jerkface."

"Weather forecast."

"Chad!"

"Sonny!"

"Cooper!"

"Munroe!"

"DYLAN!"

"…That's not fair!" Chad complained. "I don't know your middle name."

"HA!" Sonny smirked back. "I win. And because I've won, I'm going to leave because I have better things to do on MY show than hang round in awe of fake grass and plastic trees."

"Fine, then. Go off to your little pathetic excuse for a comedy show! Chuckle City's calling."

"Fine, then I will!" she stuck out her tongue (which was considered expected behavior for someone who belonged on So Random!).

"Fine!"

"Fine!"

"Good!"

"Good!"

"GOOD!" Chad concluded, obviously satisfied with their little encounter today.

He stared as she walked away from him in an attempt to be dramatic, but failed when she almost tripped (luckily she caught herself). As she recollected herself, she gave Chad one more assuring scowl, making it clear that she didn't believe him one bit, and that this conversation wasn't over. It was supposed to be threatening, but he just grinned to himself at how cute it was. Stupid cute, but cute nonetheless. Soon she was out of sight, and only then was the time that her words sank in.

Of course, he had been over at the prop house. Of course, his cast wrapped everything up in toilet paper. Of course, he knew that she wouldn't completely ignore this. And of course, he was looking forward to her visit. It was a long list of "of course's" but it was all very true, and anyone could see it.

But though the details were fuzzy and the truth was pretty well-hidden, it was clear enough that their little daily arguments weren't going to cut it. Sonny and Chad were much more than that. They had an "it" between them. An unclassified "it", to be exact, but definitely an "it". And both of them knew it. Especially Chad.

And Chad knew that it was time to take action.

In his current spare time, he went directly into his dressing room to his laptop and Googled the simple words: how to get a girl to like you. He clicked on the first promising site he saw (wikiHow had never disappointed him in times of need), and looked at the long list, making quick opinions about it.

Intro: Every woman is different; if they were all the same, you wouldn't be interested in this one in particular, now would you? There are as many different ways to attract a woman as there are women, so let's go over some basic rules that will win over any woman worth getting.

Have your own life. Um… what does this have to do with getting a girl? Next.

Make an impression. There's no one-size-fits-all solution here. What impresses one girl might make another roll her eyes. Your best bet is to be yourself. Been there, done that.

Be her friend. Not an option.

Speak to her. Check, Captain Obvious.

Be romantic. Around a Random. Uh-huh. Tell me more.

Look good. Please, this is Chad Dylan Cooper we're talking about. I always look good.

The list dragged on and on and Chad groaned at all the impossibilities. Holding her hand? Making her laugh? Obviously, this was a long-term goal, a very long process, because to even get to the friend level would be a piece of work.

But what other choice did he have? Lie around and do nothing? That was certainly not an option.

Chad suddenly felt so stupid. Why hadn't he thought of this sooner? It was a pretty simple idea in the first place. And even the site said it itself, that every woman is different. This woman happened to be Sonny Munroe. So obviously to win her, he'd need a personalized plan, not just something any idiot could Google in their spare time.

That's when everything snapped together: instead of doing the fifty thousand things WikiHow expected him to magically do on the spot without getting rejected or made fun of, he'd make his own simple, 12-step plan, a step for every month of the year. Brilliant, right? A twelve month plan to essentially capture the heart of Sonny Munroe was exactly what he needed, and being the greatest actor of our generation, he had enough intelligence to come up with one himself.

The goal was set: He'd give himself 365 days to win Sonny Munroe. And he was determined to succeed.
