*****************************************
The temperatures were dropping with the sun as Toni sped through the streets of Riverdale in a desperate attempt to find her girlfriend. Speed limits weren't a thing in her mind. If any cop were to see her she'd surely get a ticket. But she could care less about that.
Toni finally pulled up to the walkway that led down to Sweetwater River when it was nearing 4. She left her bike and ran down the walkway calling Cheryl's name while trying not to cry. Crying wouldn't get her anywhere. The pathway was long and by the time Toni reached the end of it she was out of breath from running. She scanned the shore for Cheryl's red hair and breathed a sigh of relief when she spotted the girl sitting on a large rock by the water's edge. Toni jogged over to the spot.
"Cher?" Toni asked gently. Cheryl jumped lightly. She hadn't heard Toni. She turned to look at her, and Toni felt her heart break. Cheryl's eyes were red and puffy, and there were tear tracks streaming down her cheeks. She had her knees tucked up to her chest and her whole body seemed to be shaking.
"Oh my god," Toni mumbled, slipping her Serpent jacket off and placing it on Cheryl's shoulders. She helped Cheryl up and led her back to her bike. Toni brought her to Fangs's trailer where she had been living and sat her down on her bed. It took around n30 minutes for Cheryl's body temperature to return to normal.
"They found out," Cheryl mumbled quietly. Toni ceased her pointless Instagram scrolling when she heard Cheryl speak.
"Who found out what?" the serpent asked. Cheryl looked up from her hands. She was crying again.
"My parents, they found out about us," she cried.
"What happened?" Toni questioned.
"They-they screamed at me a-and said that I-I was a disappointment a-and that if they e-ver saw us together t-they would kill y-you and then me," Cheryl sobbed. Toni immediately pulled Cheryl in and Cheryl clung to Toni with everything she had. Cheryl cried for a while before she was finally able to pull herself away from Toni.
"I'm sorry I'm such a mess," Cheryl sighed. Toni reached up and gently wiped the remainder of Cheryl's tears away with her thumb.
"You're not a mess," she reassured.
"I don't want my parents to hurt you," the red head continued. Toni could see the worry in her girlfriend's eyes.
"I'm a Serpent, remember? I can handle it. And if they try to hurt you, they'll have to get through me first," Toni said. Cheryl gave her a small smile before laying down with her head in Toni's lap.
"You're my hero," was the last thing Cheryl mumbled before she fell asleep. Toni kissed the red head's forehead before responding to the many texts she had received from her friends.
