how you two met -2-

Cheryl

You were nervously waiting for your turn as you watched other girls doing their routine, all of you wanting to please the Queen of the River Vixens, Cheryl Blossom. You have been trying for 2 years now, but each year you never got in as you never nailed your last pose properly; which was a perfect slit after coming down from a handstand.

Your brother, Archie, had asked his best friend Betty to help you whenever you were training to keep you company. As he was in the football team this year, he thought it would be a great idea if you got into the River Vixens, so after 1 intense week of training, you were confident enough that you would at least be qualified into the semi finalists.

Cheryl sat on her throne-like-chair as you made your way towards her and her friends, smiling at her shyly; only to have her raise an eyebrow coldly over at you. "Well, Y/N, show us what you've got." She said simply, but as you have had a crush on her for 1 year now, that simple phrase from her almost made you forget your moves. But when someone sneezed, you snapped back into reality and took a deep breath, before you started.

You followed a cheer that your brother help write, doing a few of your moves in between before flipping backwards; managing to nail your split perfectly as you raised your arms up with a wide smile. For once, Cheryl watched you with interest and gave you a warm smile. "My, my Y/N....that was really cool. You're in."

Jason

You hummed to yourself as you walked down the hallway towards your locker, waving at a few people who greeted you as you stopped in front of your locker and starts to unlock it. You were generally a nice person, and everyone liked you - even the jocks. 

But you wanted someone in particular to finally notice you - and that is Jason, the football captain in school. He was always with his group of friends, laughing and talking along the halls as they grew the eyes of every person in sight; which makes you feel even more insecure as there are so many more girls who were prettier than you trying to get his attention as well. 

Letting out a soft sigh, you grabbed your history textbook from your neatly arranged locker before closing the metal door; only to be met by Jason Blossom. He was leaning against the locker, his hands in his pockets and his right shoulder against the neighboring locker, a warm smile on his lips. "You're Y/N right? Cheryl seems very fond of you."

A warm blush traveled up your cheeks as you nodded, your mouth falling open a little in awe at the sight of the man you've been crushing hard on for awhile now. "You know, you are really good at Biology. I'm a little bit behind the class, so why don't we meet up at Pop's after school for a study date?" He asked with a light chuckle, rubbing the back of his neck as you nodded in reply, before he smiles widely and nods at you before walking away, leaving you speechless next to your locker; smiling to himself.

Reggie

Your father was visiting a friend of his in a town name Riverdale, and decided to bring you along. Your mother and father were divorced, and you weren't very fond of your mother, so you agreed and sat in a plate for 6 hours to get to your destination. After hours in the plane with crying kids and a child shoving his feet against the gap of your chair, you finally made it down and went to the terminal to get your bags.

"Dad, what was the man's name again?" You asked your dad with a raised eyebrow as you leaned against the trolley, watching your father as he grabbed the bags from the conveyor belt. "Just call her Mrs. Mantle, honey. And don't worry, she has a son name Reggie who is around your age." Your father replied with a smile, kissing you on the head before you started to push the cart, nodding softly. "If you said so."

After pushing past other people, your father led you towards a kind looking woman who was standing next to a handsome teenage boy. "Melinda!" Your father greeted with a warm smile, before he hugs the woman with a smile as the teen boy smirked over at you; making a warm blush travel up your neck to your cheeks. "It has been awhile! And this fine man must be Reggie?"

"Hello sir." He greeted with a warm smile, before he turned to face you with a mischievous glint in his eyes as your father wrapped an arm around your shoulders obliviously. "Nice to meet you again, boy. Do you remember Y/N? You two used to see each other a lot." He said with a smile, while Reggie just shrugs with a soft smirk on his face. "Well, I guess I have to just rebuild our relationship."
