Toni woke up with her arms wrapped around a little body. Tommy must have snuck into her bed in the middle of the night, it had gotten less common as he got older but every now and again Toni would wake up with a small body next to hers. She couldn't say she minded though, he was growing up faster then she would like to admit and moments like this made it feel like time had stopped. She untangled herself, careful not to wake up her sleeping son and grabbed her phone from the nightstand to check the time. It was 9am Toni took that as a win and it was definitely a lay in for her. She noticed she had a text message from Cheryl that had been delivered five hours ago. Toni opened it glad she had received a reply from the redhead.
Cheryl Blossom
Hi Toni, sorry for the late reply, I hope it doesn't wake you. Tell Tommy I said goodnight although it's definitely too late now. Also tell him the visit to the park was my pleasure. Goodnight Toni.Toni's heart skipped a beat for reasons she didn't understand, pushing the feeling away she decided it couldn't hurt to reply. Cheryl seemed like a nice enough person and Tommy liked her so maybe they could build at least a friendship. She pondered for a moment wondering what to type, did they even really have anything in common? Long gone were the days of Toni going on a night out with her friends and coming home in the early hours of the morning, she was a mother now and her son came first. Maybe when she had settled into the city more she could find a decent sitter and treat herself every now and again. She was still young wouldn't mind hanging out with some friends in the evening although if it never happened she wouldn't mind either. Leaving her son with a stranger didn't sit right with her. She pulled the phone up to her face again and decided on a casual reply to the redhead.
Toni Topaz
I'll let him know, I'm sure he'll be happy to hear from you, he's still asleep at the moment. How was your night?She thought leaving it with a question would hopefully start a decent conversation between the two. Surprisingly her phone lit up with a notification practically straight away.
Cheryl Blossom
I'm glad somebody's managing to get some sleep, unfortunately for me Veronica kicks in her sleep and there's a good chance my legs are bruised. My night was good, not too much drama so that was a win.Toni Topaz
Yeah at some point in the night he snuck into my bed, I can't bring myself to tell him not to. And are you and Veronica a thing? Not too much drama, what happened?Toni Topaz
Also feel free to tell me to mind my own business, I lack adult conversation after spending all my time with a five year old boy!Cheryl Blossom
It's fine. You're a good mom for letting him stay with you, my parents would never have allowed that with me. And no Veronica and I are best friends, we have been for years, she's as straight as a ruler. And a little unwanted interaction with a person I no longer wanted to communicate with that's all.Toni stopped in her tracks as she read 'She's as straight as a ruler' surely someone that's also straight wouldn't use that phrase but she shook her head not wanting to jump to conclusions. If she was honest with herself though she was surprised that the redhead was interacting with her so much, she seemed a lot more... reserved at the park. It was nice though she hadn't had another adult to talk with for a while.
Toni Topaz
Is that your way of saying you ran into an ex?Cheryl Blossom
Definitely not an ex more like someone I 'spent' time with once or twice. She wanted something serious, I didn't.Toni couldn't help the way her jaw fell when she read 'she' . That was a definite sign the redhead was into women. Cheryl was basically telling Toni that she had an unwanted run in with one of her hook ups. She wasn't exactly sure of what to reply to that.
