OR

I'm bad at summaries, but Cheryl gets drunk and says some shit.

Prompt: "My tongue still remembers the way you taste"

You would think there would be smut in this, but SURPRISE, there isn't.

Cheryl wasn't sure how many drinks she'd had, but some loser at the end of the bar kept buying them for her. Yes, said loser was a man, but Cheryl didn't care. It was free booze. Who could blame her.

Plus, it was a very good distraction from the woman that was behind the bar when she arrived. For some reason, Cheryl thought it would be a great idea to come to the bar that her ex girlfriend owned, in hopes to see her.

However, she didn't know that her ex girlfriend was now dating her baby daddy.

So, here she is, however many drinks deep, thinking about that time they fucked on a table at La Bonne Nuit. Meanwhile, the guy at the end of the bar is undressing her with his eyes. Cheryl Blossom gives no fucks. She'll continue to get free drinks and give the man nothing in return.

"I'm gonna have to cut you off, Red."

Cheryl looked up to find a tall, familiar figure. She smiled at him before slurring her next words, an octave higher than normal. "Sweet Pea! I'm totally fine. So fine!" She motioned him closer with her index finger. "You wanna know a secret?"

Sweet Pea rolled his eyes, but moved closer to the redhead.

"You see that table over there?" Cheryl asked, pointing over her shoulder with her thumb. The man nodded. "In high school, when Veronica owned this place, Toni and I..." Cheryl started giggling.

Sweet Pea backed up with a look of disgust. "Whoa, whoa. Okay, Red. I don't need to know your dirty little secrets. But I do think it's time you called it a night."

Cheryl waved her hand around in the air. "Nonsense. That lovely man at the end of the bar can keep the drinks coming."

Sweet Pea shook his head in annoyance and walked towards the man of the hour.

Cheryl swayed on the barstool she was seated at. She felt happy and carefree. Something she hadn't been in a long time. For the first time since she walked through the door, she no longer had the image of what she walked in on in her head.

The image of Toni being behind the bar and Fangs seated at a barstool, while the two were being disgustingly adorable. If Cheryl wasn't horribly in love with Toni, she probably would have thought it was adorable, but instead, she felt sick to her stomach.

"Cher, c'mon. I'm taking you home." A voice said from beside her.

Cheryl let out a deep sigh, before trying to turn on her Blossom charm. "Oh, TT," she said dreamily. "You would love that, wouldn't you?"

Toni rolled her eyes. "You're drunk. You need to go home." She left out the part about not trusting just anyone, and knowing that Cheryl wouldn't let just anyone take her home.

"Ooooh, do we get to ride on your motorcycle? I do miss that."

"No, but I was hoping you'd give me your keys, so I can drive you."

"And do what? You think you're going to stay at Thornhill? In my house of horrors?" Cheryl pouted.

Yeah, Toni was definitely annoyed. "I just want to make sure you get home safe. Fangs will pick me up later."
