{Chapter 11} Slithering Snakes

Guys do you honestly think I should continue this. I love writing always have I just feel like when I plan it in my mind it's good but when I write it down it's bad.

Toni groaned waking up to sunlight coming through Thistlehouse. She got up not realizing there was someone on top of her until she heard a thud. "Ow"

"Oh! Sorry I forgot you were on me" Toni said stifling a laugh "Not funny TT, help me up please" Cheryl  held out her hand which Toni took right away only to get pulled to the ground.

"Touché Blossom" Toni said whilst Cheryl straddles her lap. "Are you excited to meet The Snake? Cheryl said beaming with joy. "If by snake you mean Ms. Cooper than no, I'm more excited to do this"

Toni smashed her lips onto Cheryl's with force eliciting a moan. Toni took this chance to slip her tongue in the girls mouth. Their tongues battling for dominance. Obviously Toni won.

"Mm" Cheryl moaned in between kisses. The only thing being heard throughout the rooms were occasional moans and mumbles.

Forgetting the fact that they were in the living room they continued with making out until they were interrupted.

"CHERYL MARJORIE BLOSSOM! This is who you've become now?" Alice walked in practically screaming.

"IM UP!" Betty and Kevin said in sync their eyes widening at the sight before them. "Oh snap, Betty get my phone" Kevin remarked not taking his eyes off the situation. "No way I'm not missing this"

Toni's POV

I pushed Cheryl down on the couch and began removing my shirt. I was about to attack her neck when someone bust through the door.

"Aunt Alice!" I got up and started looking where I threw my shirt while Cheryl was trying to calm her down.

It took about 30 minutes for everyone to calm The Snake down and now we were just sitting in silence at the dinner table sharing horrified glances at one another.

I decided to break whatever weird trance we were in to grab a bread roll and stuffed it in my mouth. Alice gave off a disgusted look so I finally decided to stand up for myself.

"Look if you have a problem with me being dating your niece or the fact that I'm a serpent then you have another thing coming. I really like Cheryl and yeah it sucks that I don't have your blessing but frankly I don't need it nor do I want it. As long as she's happy shouldn't that be enough."

I felt Cheryl squeeze my thighs and rest it there as a way to comfort me when really I should be the one comforting her. I did not break contact once but I rested my hand on top of hers to let her know I appreciated it.

"Cheryl dear, I think you all should excuse yourselves, don't you?" I look at Cheryl she gives me an apologetic smile and scurries away along with the rest of them.

"So... you're a serpent." She scans me over no doubt looking for my tattoo "So are you, Snake. I mean does Cheryl and Betty even know why they call you the Snake? Do they know that their precious Mama Cooper used to be a serpent, no actually let me rephrase that, the serpent queen.

I saw a look of terror on her face before she composed herself and sat more straight if that was even possible.

"Look I don't like the fact that you're a serpent, but I can't also deny the fact that I was a serpent. I love Cheryl like she's my own daughter and I just want what's best for her." She said tearing up

"Look-"

"No! You don't understand, you don't know anything! The more Cheryl finds out about her post or the more she gets into gangs the more danger she's in. I won't be able to protect her for long. Which is why you need to promise me you won't get her wrapped up in this."

I took her hand and smiled at her in reassurance. "I promise... I love Cheryl more than anything I just hope she feels the same" I said frowning. She does I can tell by the way she looks at you, but something tells me she still feel guilty about a certain someone"
