Request : Cheryl asks her best friend (reader) over for a sleepover and while she's spooning the reader she reveals her feelings for them.
In the few years of being best friends with Cheryl Blossom, the two of you have had a countless amount of sleepovers but for some reason this one felt different.
It was around midnight and at some point during your movie marathon in her bedroom Cheryl had curled herself up next to you with her arm around your waist and her head resting against your shoulder.
It wasn't the first time this had happened but it always struck you odd because Cheryl had never exactly been one to enjoy someone being in her personal space.
You weren't complaining though, you knew you had feelings for Cheryl that were more than just a best friend way but didn't want to risk your friendship if she didn't feel the same. Especially after Jason's death, it wasn't fair to her to confront her about it right now.
Despite your current physical closeness, Cheryl had been distant all night. She didn't make her usual satirical comments during any of the movies, she had barely spoken to you at all and you could tell she wasn't even paying attention to the movie that was coming to an end.
"Cheryl?" you asked.
"Yes Y/N."
"Are you alright? You've been spaced out all night."
She took a deep breath clearly determining if she wanted to address the problem or not, "I just have a lot on my mind right now."
"You know you can talk to me about anything right?"
"I know," she said somehow getting even closer to you, "I just don't want to talk about it right now."
You didn't want to push so you just accepted it and started the next movie.
Nearly an hour later Cheryl finally spoke again.
"You know Y/N, you're the only person that's never wanted anything from me."
You were confused by the statement, "what do you mean?"
She looked up at you, "everyone whose ever pretended to be my friend has always only wanted a raise in their popularity status, connections from the Blossom family business or to get closer to Jason. You're the only friend I have that I could do something with like just lay here and watch movies like its no big deal."
"It really isn't a big deal Cheryl," you laughed, "I've never cared about the connections or the popularity. I just like being with you."
Suddenly Cheryl was kissing you and even thought it took you by surprise, it felt like the most natural thing in the world.
When she pulled back she said, "what if I wanted you to be more then just my best friend?"
"What if I've wanted that for a long time," you told her with a new found confidence.
She smiled and put her hand on your face to pull you back in for another kiss and the rest of the night was better then you could have ever imagined.
