"You"

Faint buzzing of her phone woke Y/N up. She doesn't remember when she fell asleep. Her head was pounding as she reached up to rub the sleep off her eyes. She looked to the side and a small genuine smile graced the Y/H/C girls
face on seeing Billy sleep peacefully with his hands haphazardly hanging off the bed.

The buzzing of her phone died down as Y/N reached out to take it. She slowly got up from the bed and peeked through the balcony to see it was dark outside and was amused as to know who would call her this late. After getting a cigarette and running her hands through her hair in order to tame her soft mullet Y/N noticed that her phone was flooded with Cheryls calls and texts.

To be honest Y/ N always had a soft spot for the redhead but she hated when someone other than Billy tallied her all the time. Y/N had trouble opening up to people, she never trusted anyone and she had learned it the hard way . Therefore when Cheryl was ready to take their one night stand relationship to another level Y/N was genuinely confused. She didn't know how to show or express love, even though she had her fair share of women in her past year, the Y/H/C girl never had kissed anyone except Cheryl, she hadn't let anyone see another vulnerable side of her that she had closed and kept inside her tiffany box. But Cheryl....Cheryl was different , Y/N and Cheryl could have been a thing earlier if a certain incident hadn't happened in their life but now she couldn't go back in time , neither could she change herself . But she knew where Cheryl was coming from and she herself had promised to text her so Y/N couldn't blame her now.

Scrolling down she clicked on Cheryl's contact and held the phone to her ear with the help of her right shoulder as she tried to light the cigarette. Within the second ring the girl on the other side of the line picked up "Y/N.....you said you'd text me...where are you now " Cheryl's angelic voice filled Y/N's ears.

" yea.. I ...uh I got busy with Billy so yea..." Y/ N took a deep puff as she exhaled smoke circles through her mouth skilfully. " Uhm... did you eat something?" Y/N awkwardly tried to make a conversation.

Cheryl chuckled at Y/N's failed attempt in making a conversation but it still brought a warm feeling in her chest knowing that Y/N cared enough to ask her that. Cheryl looked at the clock seeing it was 12 in the night as she smiled softly and answered.
" yea I had dinner.. what about you. Don't tell me you are smoking..... wait.....you are.. aren't you ?"

Y/ N could picture Cheryl on the other side of the line with her hand placed on her hip inorder to look intimidating. Cheryl always used to do this even when she was a little kid.
Cheryl always wanted to get the first go in every game they played as little kids as she used to say " my fairy godmother only brings me luck if I play first Y/n/n...."
The memory bought a smile to the taller girls face as she chuckled throwing her half burned cigarette away.
" And I can see YOU standing with your hand on your hip Cher..."
The nickname made Cheryl's heart flutter as she instinctively drew her hand back from her hip. A dark amber colour graced Cheryl's face as she bit the inside of her cheek inorder to not laugh.
" God... you even used to say that your fairy god mother would only bring you luck if you had the first go at every game we played" Y/N chuckled even more as she relived all the moments that they shared together as little children.

" that was because I was 6 Y/n/n... I was little and I had no idea that you'd be teasing me about it now. So shut up." Cheryl shook her head and laughed along with the girl on the other side of the line.

" yea...well I miss all of that. I wish we could've stayed like that for the rest of our lives" Y/N let out a deep sigh as her smile turned into a small frown.

Cheryl on the other hand was happy that Y/N was having a heart to heart conversation with her and she wanted to talk more but that was when Cheryl's mom came in and peeped through the door.

" no phone past 10 Cher. Whoever it is I'm sure they can talk to you in the morning. So off to bed now..." saying this Cheryl's mom went downstairs.

"Uhm..Y/n/n I gotta go, my mom is..." Y/N's voice cut Cheryl off " All cool....get some sleep love...bye " Saying this the line on the other side of Cheryl's phone went dead.

To say Cheryl was disappointed would be an understatement , she secretly wanted Y/N to ask her to stay a little longer which she would have done if Y/N asked but then a real wide smile graced her face as she realised what Y/N just called her.
Cheryl blossom strode back to her bed as she got a glimpse of her in the mirror and lightly traced the marks Y/N had made earlier on her skin. Even though Y/N had one night stands with other girls before she never left her mark on anyone and this was one thing she only did to Cheryl and Cheryl only. The memory of last night brought a deep red blush along with a smile on her beautiful porcelain face as Cheryl laid herself onto her bed. She wanted to cuddle with Y/N, she wanted to hold Y/N close and she wanted to be Y/N's .
But then again this was Y/ N we were talking about, you could never pretend what she would be feeling or thinking the next moment.

Cheryl could and would never blame Y/N. She was there during Y/N's mother's funeral and she still could see the little Y/E/C girl crying and asking her mom to not leave her alone. She still remembers all the letter she had sent to Y/N when she was in therapy. She also remembered how Y/N grabbed the scissors from her art class and aggressively chopped her long Y/H/C hair off. Cheryl's heart still aches for the taller girl and then and there she made it her major priority to make Y/N happy and if that meant meaningless one night stands to Y/N then so be it, at least at that moment she could hold Y/N close...close to her heart, close enough to prove it to her that Cheryl Blossom's heart was beating only for Y/N Reux Ford.
