( WORK FOR IT )
by writing-in-riverdale
it was just another pep rally for the river vixens but for cheryl blossom it meant that there was another opportunity to be in the spotlight, being the captain and all.
you smile over to your red headed best friend, she was nervous like always. her parents had attended every single bulldog/vixen event but after jason's death they had stopped because the memories flooded back each time they sat in those bleachers.
tonight was different though, tonight both blossom parents were here to support the teenage girl, so we had practice every damn day for at least a few hours.
we had to make this rally perfect so cheryl could show her parents what they've been missing.
"you know this routine inside and out cheryl, you could do it in your sleep" you reassure her placing a comforting hand on her shoulder.
"thank you" she smiles softly at you "what are best friends for?" you giggle bumping her hip with your own as you apply your last coat of mascara to your eyelashes.
it was our fifth and final period and cheryl had ordered an emergency practice which resulted us being forced out to practice on the field with the jocks because the gym was being occupied by freshman gym class.
"5 minute break" cheryl yells allowing us to rest and hydrate.
you wonder over to the drinks table pouring yourself a cup a icy water from the cooler they leave there for the jocks.
"drinking our water i see?" you jump at the sudden voice almost covering yourself in water "god you scared me" you mumble wiping your mouth of the fallen liquid.
it was the one and only reggie mantle, it was common knowledge to all the kids at riverdale high that the raven haired jock had a thing for you. you flirted back and fourth tension building between the two of you.
he'd asked you out multiple times as well as half the other guys on the team but you refused to date anyone of them. the girls on your squad were puzzled at your decision to turn down only the best of riverdale high but you just shrugged it off.
you didn't want to fall into the stereo type of an 'easy' cheerleader.
its not that you weren't attracted to him because god, you were. he was tall, strong one of the best bodies in your year but he was more than that. you were the only one who'd seen past his bad boy jock facade.
he had everybody fooled, except you.
"can't a hard working vixen get herself some cold water?"
he smirks "depends" he steps closer continuing to flirt
"will this working hard-gorgeous vixen want to go on a date with this beautiful specimen of a bulldog"
you roll your eyes placing the cup back down on the table
"you know what I'm actually not that thirsty" you turn and walk back toward your squad, swinging your hips as you know his eyes are watching your every agonising move.
"your going to have to try harder than that reg" you yell to the boy
he bites his clenched fist before jogging over to his jock friends.
you begin to stretch when cheryl approach you a smirk evident on her face. you grab her shoulder to stabilise yourself as you tuck one foot up.
"what are you doing?" she questions you, looking you up and down then behind you were you know reggie is staring based on the voice of coach clayton yelling at the poor boy.
