Chapter 3 (Cheerleading)

"Hmm, Ladies. where's the heat? The sizzle?" Cheryl asked watching Veronica and Betty

"Well you haven't seen our big finish yet," Veronica said as she kissed an awkward Betty while I watched in amusement

"Check you sell-by date ladies, because faux lesbian kissing hasn't been taboo since 1994, Let's see if you can do better in the interview portion," she stated

"Why hurry for the interview there's still something left," I said walking up to the girls as I took off my jacket revealing the cheerleading outfit

"But that was all we planned to show for the tryouts" Veronica whispered

"Relax Ronnie, I know what Cheryl wants, get Betty, we're going to perform our routine," I whispered as she followed with a smirk

I handed one of Cheryl's minions Tina my phone to play Tik Tok by Kesha, after our routine Cheryl was impressed

"Betty, how is your sister doing?" She asked

"Um, Polly's fine. Thanks for asking" Betty answered

"And how is your sister Katherine?" After Betty, she decided to play with me but she was playing with the wrong person

"She's great" I replied bluntly

"Veronica, has Betty told you about her sister?"

"Uh no," Veronica said looking between us all

"Go ahead Betty, tell Veronica about your sister and my dear brother" she demanded as I shot her a glare knowing exactly what she was up to

"Um Polly and Jason dated, and it didn't end well," Betty said as I looked at her

"In fact, Jason's probably why your sister had a nervous breakdown and is in a group home isn't it?" Cheryl snapped

"That's what our parents think," Betty said lowering her gaze as I felt like punching the guts out of Cheryl

"What do you have to say about that Betty?" Cheryl asked leaning forward "Go ahead, the floor is yours, whatever you've been dying to spew about Jason and how he treated Polly. Unleash it, destroy me, tear me a new one, rip me to shreds, Annihilate me" she demanded as I could see Betty just standing there with her fists tightly closed, she does this when she has a lot to say but she's scarred and it bleeds her

"Nothing," Betty said as Cheryl sighed sitting back

"You know what Cheryl, Betty might not have something to say, but I do. You think you're rich so have the right to gossip about people's lives and nothing will happen. But guess what you yourself are a perfect gossip for not only them but the whole school. And it just shows how lonely you are after Jason's death. You're angry that your so-called lover/brother is no longer there to clean up after your mess that you've gone crazy. I'm gonna give you a little friendly advice here though, quit cheerleading and mourn your lover brother, because that's the only thing you're capable of!" I slammed my hand on the table towering over her as she leaned back scarred

"Katherine, Veronica, welcome to River Vixens. Betty better luck next time" she said

"What? Why?" Veronica asked "Because you couldn't bully Betty into being a bitch" she said

"I need girls with fire on my team" she stated

"I know what you need Cheryl because We know who you are" Veronica snapped

"You would rather people fear than like you, so you traffic in tear and intimidation, You're rich so you've never been held accountable, but I am a living proof of that certainty, that entitlement that you wear on your head like a crown, it won't last. Eventually, there will be a reckoning or maybe that reckoning is now" Veronica said walking to the table" Or maybe that reckoning is me and Katherine," she completed
