CHERYL'S POV

"Now, I will be leaving to New York for our maple syrup business. I expect you two, especially Cheryl to be on both of your best behavior. I will come back no later than Monday night. Goodbye" Our dad said before he pulled out of the drive way

I make my way to my room to get ready for school, but I hear doorbell ring.

"Who is at the door, JJ"

"Betty and Veronica, they want you to take them to school" Jason laughs

I roll my eyes, why can't they drive themselves, or get Veronica's limo driver to drive them.

"Hey Cheryl" Betty said

"Hey cousin and Veronica, can't you two drive yourselves to school"

they both look at each other before Veronica talks

"Good morning to you too, Bombshell, we haven't hung out in a while and we thought why not go to Cheryl's house"

"Oh yeah, ever since you two became a thing, I have been left out" I sigh

"I am sorry cousin, I didn't realize we left you out so often. We'll make it up to you! After school let's go to Pop's! Our treat" Betty exclaimed

I see Betty and Veronica beg me with their big puppy eyes begging me and I couldn't resist

"Okay fine, I'll go. But if I realize I'm 3rd wheeling, I'm leaving" I state

"Don't worry you won't, now lets get to school. You know Betty doesn't like to be late" Veronica said

I nod and we all walk downstairs, JJ is staying because he caught the flu. As we are walking, I see the way Betty and Veronica hold their hands and close together... I wish I was able to do that. Be free with TT, if she still liked me. I wish my parents accepted me for who I was instead of doing the things there doing right now.

"Hey you okay" Veronica asked

"Uh yeah, of course why wouldn't I" I say putting on a fake smile

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Great, we're late" I sigh

"I'm sorry, but I wanted a milkshake from Pop's and they didn't open until 9" Betty said

"We just missed one class, Bombshell. This will look good for your new rep" Veronica walked heading to the restroom

"Oooo let's take pics" Betty said

I rolled my eyes at them and walked inside the restroom

While we were taking pictures, I hear someone come in

"Hey Betty, I got your text. Whats up?" I see Toni, she doesn't see me.

"What's going on cousin" I look at Betty, Toni's head goes up fast as soon as she hears my voice

Her eyes look so dull, theres bags under her eyes. Why hasn't be she be sleeping right? Did I do this to her?

"You need to fix this, Cheryl. AND we won't up this door until you two have" Veronica said as her and Betty run out before we can leave

"There's nothing to fix," I yell

"I have a better idea, why don't you tell me whats bothering because clearly you're in a lot of pain" TT says as she puts her hand on my arm. I jump at the touch ever since the incident of Nick, I haven't been handling people touching me too well

"Get your sapphic, serpent hand OFF my body" I push her hand and start to walk away

"Please Cheryl, Jason told me he heard you saying how you need to protect me. Who is threatening you, Cheryl I care about you"
