"Fine," Sheryl huffed, sitting upright on the couch. Meanwhile, you walked into the kitchen to grab some snacks. You spot the box of unopened Fruity Pebbles, and grab that, along with a bowl, a spoon, and the carton of milk in your fridge. You smile, remembering the time you went grocery shopping with Taehyung.

Making yourself comfortable on the couch beside Sheryl, you prepared your cereal while listening to Sheryl's story. 

"Where did you two go?" you asked her.

"We went to the carnival nearby. It's really cool, the rides there are awesome," Sheryl gushed. "We went on all the rides!"

You nod, crunching on your cereal. "Carry on, keep talking."

"It was kind of awkward at first, but he kind of broke the ice and we had a great time at the carnival. The only downside was that he had to keep a mask and a cap on all the time, or he'd be recognised. So, he met me outside my house, then we walked to the carnival together. He kept cracking jokes, it was really funny. Then we tried all the scary rides, which we both love. He screamed on one of the roller coasters, though, and it almost made his hat fall off!" Sheryl chuckled. She was clearly happy just recalling what happened - it made you smile, knowing that your best friend was happy. 

"He challenged me to a darts game, by the way."

"He did?" you laughed. "You obviously won, right?" Sheryl was amazing at darts - she never missed the bullseye. 

"Yeah, he was so salty about that, so I gave him the plushie that I won at the booth. It was a pink, fluffy rabbit." 

"Aww," you cooed. "Y'all should have gone on a cruise, so I can say that the Sherkook ship is sailing."

She rolled her eyes and smacked your arm. 

"Now, tell me your story," she said, changing the subject. You narrowed your eyes - what was she hiding, hm? 

"No, hang on. What did you two do after that?"

Cheeks turning red, she covered her face with the blanket. "He walked me home, and then he - he-"

"He what?"

"He kissed m-"

"AHHHH!" you shrieked, kicking your legs up into the air. "OH MY GOSH YASSS! When is your wedding? Please invite me!" 

"He kissed my cheek," Sheryl continued. You stopped celebrating and settled back down. 

"Oh."

Huffing and rearranging the pillows on the couch that you had kicked over, she said, "Now, will you please tell me what you and Taehyung did? I've been dying to hear from you."

So you told her what happened. 

"What? You actually met all of BTS?" she yelled. "Why didn't you invite me! And Taehyung actually stayed overnight? Here?" She made dying whale noises, collapsing on the couch. 

"I also met Tanya," you said darkly. "And she has a lot of explaining to do."

You low-key regretted telling Sheryl about what Tanya supposedly did to BTS, because Sheryl declared lthat "my friendship, or whatever relation I had with her, is officially terminated". 

"Isn't that a bit much?" you asked her. "I mean, we haven't heard her side of the story, or the whole story."

"No! First off, she wasn't even a good friend to me! She was much closer to you, and hardly confided in me unless you were around. Second, she freaking knew BTS personally in high school, and never bothered to open her mouth to say anything!" Sheryl ranted, bashing a fist into the couch cushion. "Third, SHE HURT BTS! ISN'T THAT ENOUGH TO MAKE ME FEEL LIKE THIS?"

"Okay, relax, relax. How about a movie and popcorn? Maybe you'll cool down a little," you said gently, trying to appease the infuriated Sheryl.

"Fine! But just so you know, I feel so betrayed!"

"Same," you shrugged. "I'm just waiting for the whole story before I take any sides." But deep down, you knew who you were already siding with.

"Regina George is two-faced and conniving, just like Tanya!" Sheryl screamed at the television screen. You face palmed, regretting your decision to watch 'Mean Girls' with Sheryl. Almost everything that happened on screen reminded Sheryl of Tanya, and did nothing to calm Sheryl down whatsoever. 

"Okay, stop it, let's watch something else." You stopped 'Mean Girls' and put on 'Kingsman' instead. 

Thankfully, Sheryl managed to calm herself down, although she now despised Tanya.

Monday

You were up early so you could prepare for work. You continued with your morning routine, getting dressed and doing your hair and makeup, then grabbed a pack of biscuits and left the house. 

*ping*

You looked down at your phone.

Jiheon was at work early, as always. This time, she didn't ask you to arrange the shelves neatly, like she always did - because someone was already doing it.

A new employee? You made your way over to her to introduce yourself.

"Hello, I'm-"

"Hey, Y/N," Tanya smiled. "I'm back to work again!"
