Backstory: 2 months ago, Heather (Cheryl's ex lover) moved back to Riverdale, due to her mom getting a job working for FP at the police station. Heather and Cheryl have been starting to become close again and Toni doesn't like that. She's starting to get mad at them both. Heather has also been hanging out with Archie and Veronica too as she used to be Archie's friend back in Junior High and she is singing some nights at La Bonne Nuit for Veronica.

Heather's POV

Heather: (Playing guitar) 🎶...I miss you. And I know you miss me too. So just say the words, baby, and I'll come back to you....🎶

Archie: (Smiles at Heather) That was really good, Heather. Those lyrics were beautiful. What inspired you to write that song?

I put my guitar down on Archie's bed and faced him. His question rang through my head. I sighed.

Heather: It's about...someone special to me that I miss. A lot.

Archie: (Winking) Awww Heather. You shouldn't have.

I gave Archie a playful punch on the arm and he laughed.

Archie: Let me guess, it's about Cheryl.

Heather: (Smirking) ....Possibly.

I put my guitar back in its case.

Archie: Well, why don't you tell her that you still like her?

Heather: (Zipping guitar case) Like her?! Arch, I freaking love her!...but she's with Toni now.

I sighed again.

Heather: She's moved on. Maybe I should too.

Archie: Look, if you don't tell her, I'm gonna have to sit here for the rest of my life listening to you mope that you still love her, blah blah blah.

I rolled my eyes at Archie's comment.

Heather: (Rolls eyes) You're no help.

Archie: I am helping! I'm tryna help you gain the confidence to tell her how you feel about her!

I stood up and Archie faced me, holding my hands.

Archie: Remember that time in Junior High when you told our Geography teacher you hated her? To her face! (Heather giggles) What the hell has happened to that Heather?

I smiled. I thought a lot about what he said. If I didn't wanna be depressed my whole life regretting that I didn't confess my love for Cheryl, I had to say something to her, and I don't care what Toni thinks.

Heather: (Smiles) That Heather is still here.

Archie: Prove it. You go over to Thornhill and tell Cheryl that you love the pants off of her. Tell her that she will be the other mother to your future kids and then sing "Treat You Better" by Shawn Mendes to her. Then she will definitely come back to you.

I bursted our laughing.

Heather: (Laughing) I love you Archie.

Archie hugged me.

Archie: (Hugging Heather) I love you too. (Pulling away from the hug) Now go get your Blossom.
