Riverdale One Shots and Preferences

Be You//C.B

Something was off with Cheryl. You couldn't figure out what it was, and she wasn't talking to you about it. This upset you because she usually talked to you about everything. You were her girlfriend after all, and right now you felt pretty useless. She had been growing more and more distant from you, and one day she didn't show up for school. So you took off at lunchtime and headed to Thornhill. You noticed that Penelope's vehicle wasn't anywhere to be seen so you just let yourself into the unlocked mansion. You headed up to Cheryl's room and found her lying in her bed, with a pillow hugged against her body, sobbing. You slowly walked into her room and sat down on the edge of her bed.

"Cheryl? Are you okay?" You asked her softly.

"Oh, Y/N, yeah I'm fine." She replied, looking at you with sad eyes.

"You're clearly not." You answered.

She sat up and pulled her knees to her chest, hugging them against her.

"Please, talk to me." You begged her.

"I just, I feel like I'm being pulled a million different directions. I have to be the perfect daughter, and the best cheerleading captain. I have to be enough of a bitch to scare everyone but also be nice sometimes. I don't know who I am anymore, I feel so lost." She told you.

You kicked your shoes off and crawled up her bed, pulling her against you and hugging her tightly as you rubbed her back gently.

"Cheryl, just be you. No one else can. And you are so amazing. I fell in love with you because of who you are. Never let anyone change you or make you feel like you have to be someone different. Because you don't. I don't care if no one else likes you, I always will." You whispered to her as she cried.

She looked up at you, and gave you a small smile.

"Really?" She asked.

"Of course." You smiled.

She then threw her arms around your neck and hugged you tightly, before pressing her lips against your own in a soft kiss.

"I love you." She mumbled against your lips as she pulled away.

"I love you too." You said, leaning back down to capture her lips between yours.
