Sparks

9. Reunion

I had a lot of fun writing this chapter! There's not much for angst in this chapter, mostly some good laughs and cuteness overloads. Nana Rose is also in most of this chapter, so get ready for that <3

Cheryl finally gets to reunite with her family. Meanwhile, Toni, FP, Sweet Pea and Jason work on coming up with a plan to get Nick St. Clair to come to Riverdale. Little do they know, two people are meeting with Clifford and Penelope Blossom to come up with a plan to get Cheryl.

Once we were dressed, I grabbed her hand and walked over to the bed. "Please don't leave me, Toni." I whispered, pulling the comforter back and both of us climbing into the bed. I laid my head on her chest, listening to her heart beat.

"I wouldn't dream of it, Bombshell."

Sunday 11am

Jason, Amber, William, Nana Rose and Sweet Pea all piled into Jason's car, headed to the Smith-Jones household, where Cheryl and Toni would be meeting them. Jason arrived an hour before Toni and Cheryl were expected, so it would be easier to surprise his sister with Nana Rose.

Everyone got out of Jason's car. It was like watching clowns get out of a clown car. Jason and Sweet Pea were in the front, while Nana and the twins were in the back. They all walked up the house, Jason knocking on the door.

They were greeted by FP, "Hey, everyone! Come on in! Good to see ya, Rose. You haven't aged a day over sixty." He chuckled.

Nana greeted him with a kiss on the cheek, "You're too sweet, dear boy." Everyone else walked in behind her. Sweet Pea took a seat in a chair, assuming Betty would be down soon. The twins ran inside looking for Alice, who was in the kitchen working on lunch. Nana joined Alice in the kitchen, trying to not get trampled by the twins.

"FP, Sweets, there's something I need to talk to you both about, as well as Toni when she gets here." He paused for a bit, thinking about his words, "Nick called my dad Friday night asking about Cheryl. Nick said he hasn't seen her since Monday morning, which is true. I'm afraid my dad thinks I had something to do with her disappearance, but I told him I haven't heard from her either. And that I never went to see her."

"That is quite the predicament. But, as Toni's right hand, I am obligated to tell her right now." Sweet Pea spoke up while FP took a seat on the couch.

"What? Right now? She'll be here in less than an hour." Jason asked, almost surprised.

"Yes, right now. If we are to see or hear anything regarding Nick, we're supposed to tell her. You should have told her as soon as you found out. I'm going to text her." Jason sat on the couch, head in his heads.

Sweets: We're at FP's. Red just gave us some interesting news. I guess Nick called their dear ole dad Friday night asking if he had seen Cheryl.

Tiny: Fuck, seriously?!

Sweets: Yup. Jason told him he doesn't know anything and was never in Chicago.

Tiny: Ok, good. I might have a plan.

It was 9am when Toni's alarm started going off, but she didn't hear it. Instead, Cheryl woke up to it. She was going to reach over and hit snooze when she realized Toni's arms were wrapped tightly around her. Cheryl laid back down and started gently tapping Toni's arm, "TT, wake up...your alarm is going off." She said tiredly.

Toni only groaned in response, nuzzling more into Cheryl's back.. "Babe..." Cheryl said a little louder, knowing it would get Toni's attention. "Hmm?"
