From Different Worlds

Chapter 18

Cheryl got to her foster parent's house, angry with them. When she walked in they greeted her, and she walked to "her room" and put the clothes in the drawer, then she sat on the counter. "Mr.Weatherbee told me something very interesting today." She said.

"Really? What did he say?" Mrs. Reager asked.

"That there was a special english class for people with dyslexia, but I never told him I had it...and the only other people who know are..." She trailed off.

"Look, it accidentally slipped." Mr. Reager said. "And where's your brother?"

"He's on a road trip with a couple of his buddies. Anyways how did it 'slip' because that's not something that just falls out of your mouth."

"How about you just think about it. I mean that way you can learn at your own pace, and you can be with kids you have dyslexia too."

"I don't want to be. I'm fine in my own english class-"

"Cher, you have an F. You are failing that class miserably."

"Yeah, but all my other classes are bad too."

"We would much rather you have a C than an F." Mrs. Reager informed. "Are you hungry, I'm making sushi."

"No thanks. I'm okay..." Cheryl didn't like fish that much. "I have to get to the hospital."

"What? Why?"

"My girlfriend is there. Gotta go."

"Okay, bye hun." Although they said they were only doing it for the money, they seemed like they would be good parents.

"Bye." Cheryl got on her motor bike, and went to the hospital.

Once she got to the hospital room, Toni's eyes lit up. "Cheryl!" She squealed.

"Someone's happy." Cheryl laughed, and sat next to her girlfriend.

"I missed you." Toni leaned up as best she could, and pecked her girlfriend's lips.

"I missed you too."

Toni and Cheryl, were together a lot, but didn't have a chance to have that much alone time. Times like these Toni appreciated the most, just her and her girlfriend. "So, anything exciting happen at school today?"

"No, just the basic boring stuff." Cheryl sighed. "What about you? Anything exciting happen?"

"Not really...just nurses being assholes."

"Oh, I'm sorry. Hey, wasn't today your first day at speech? How did you like it?"

"Hated it. It was dumb, and the doctor was treating me like a child. It was annoying." Toni huffed. "When I'm out he'll probably start coming to my house, and that will be a nightmare. Especially with my mom around. Or I'm might just not go at all."

"Oh! Speaking of parents. My foster parents totally betrayed me."

"How did they do that?"

"They told Wheatherbee about my dyslexia. He wants me to go to a special english class. I immediately said no."

"You don't wanna try it first, and see how you like it?"

"Hmm, I don't know..."

"Maybe think about it."

Then Violet walked in, and both the girls sighed. "Hey, girls. Cheryl how was school?"

"Good." Cheryl responded.

It has been a few weeks, and Toni was getting out of the hospital. She was excited to be home, but not excited to go to school. She couldn't do cheer practice, basically anything she likes to do on a daily basis. Cheryl on the other hand, was doing her own thing. Serpent meetings were keeping her busy, the Ghoulies are back in town, and it had the Serpents prepared to fight if anything happened. Because of the meetings, Cheryl and Toni weren't able to spend anytime together. Both girls were mad about this.

"I can't stay, I have a Serpent meeting to get to, then have to go to my foster parents house because my social worker will be there." Cheryl huffed.

"Okay." Toni pouted. "I'll see you tomorrow?"

"Yeah." Cheryl kissed Toni, and walked out of her bedroom.

In Greendale...

"How about I just go to the school, and black mail her. I heard she with this new cheerleader. All I gotta do is threaten her, and she'll be all mine." Heather laughed.

"No, to risky, Veronica and Betty might be there too, and I haven't forgotten when they beat your ass last time." Malcom sighed.

"That was only because they walked in on us making love." Heather smirked. It wasn't "making love" to Cheryl though.

"Yeah, yeah, whatever. Not yet, we still have somethings to take care of first."
