Lovers will be lovers: a choni story

Part 5

Toni's POV

We walked into the house and I instantly knew my brother was going to tell Fangs and Sweetpea because he can't keep a secret for dear lord.

I sighed and walked upstairs.

"Tiny, is it true?" Fangs asked "Yes, we did see dad at the store today" I said and huffed, "well we've gotta tell mom" "I pushed them all into my room and locked the door. "No. We can't. She finally happy here, I actually heard her talking to one of her new friends about a guy she met, if she has to move mom will never be happy"

"Fine, we won't tell her, but eventually you will"

I sighed and kicked them all out of my room. I laid on my bed with my many thoughts and emotions.

  ~~~~~~~~~Later in the day~~~~~~~~~

Me and my family were about to sit down for dinner, my mom doesn't like us going anywhere else but this table for dinner, anyways we were about to eat dinner when a huge knock was heard on the door.

"That doesn't sound like a 'friendly welcome to the neighborhood' knock, Fangs take you and your sibling upstairs" my mom said worried.

"No way we're leaving you down here alone what if it's a killer or something" I shouted "if it is and he tries to kill you he'll have to get through me first, no ones getting in between me and my kids, now go upstairs"

We all went upstairs like we were told but we secretly standing at the top of the stair case to see who was at the door. "Hello Jennifer, I just wanted to let you know I'm in town, and I've just been missing my kids so much, may I come inside" a familiar voice I described as my father said "you will not step into this house, or see MY kids ever again, now leave" all of a sudden a hand was around my mothers neck, and soon enough we all were racing to the rescue, sweet pea punched him in the face, while I grabbed the closest thing to me which was a large vase that I crashed over his head making him pass right out.

We heard sirens, I'm guessing my little brother called the cops, I soon realized what I had just done. I may have just killed my father.

Cheryl's POV

I sat in bed and thought about my date with Toni tomorrow. I didn't know what to wear and I was already in desperate need of some new clothes so I called up Roni so we could go shopping.

Call between Veronica and Cheryl

V- Hey Cheryl what's up
C- Hey, I was just wondering if you wanted to go shopping, I need some new clothes
V- sure, swing by mines in 20?
C- sure, I'll be on my way.

                                 ~~~
Me and Veronica were in the mall, it wasn't a lot of people here considering it was 8:00 pm and we have school tomorrow. Our first stop was the pretzel shop because who doesn't love a good pretzel, as we were waiting for our snack, Veronica decided to bring up Toni.

"So, Topaz girl, what's been happening with her?" "Well, were going on a date tomorrow that she planned, so that's why I need new outfits, and I couldn't be more excited" "awwww, that's adorable. What are your feelings about her like" "I don't even know man, I feel so safe, and free, and I feel like she's the one I'm going to start my life with, I just know that she's going to be the one I marry. All I wanna do is protect her, and Cherish her, and treat her like a queen, she deserves the world. Oh my gosh and she's so perfect" "did you know I helped her with getting ready for her date with you, and the only makeup she used was mascara, an eyebrow pencil, and lipgloss. If you don't hop on that, I will" "like you would ever go gay, you the straightest girl I know" "um what about Betty, I'm pretty sure she's so straight that she can't even take a left turn." Veronica said offended "yeah but I've seen the way she looked after that kiss you guys did for tryouts" "whatever, get your pretzel and let's go"

I just dropped Roni back at home. I was driving back home to decide my outfit for tomorrow when I got a text from Toni

"Hey Cher, I'm very very sick so we'll have to schedule the date for another time, I also won't be at school, so don't be worried❤️"

I felt really bad that she was sick, so I decided to swing by pops and the grocery store to get her a chocolate milkshake, some candy, and a card that said "get well soon!xx- Cheryl"

I was on my way when the police and ambulance zoomed passed me, the same direction I was going. I soon got worried and started going the same pace as the cops and we got there at the same time. I left Toni's gifts in the car and waited outside to see what had happened.

A man was put into the ambulance and driven away, and who I'm guessing was her mom and little brother we're hugging each other, while fangs tried to calm down sweet pea, I saw no sign of Toni.

I walked closer to the scene. "Excuse me who are you" her mother asked "oh um in the girl from the other night, Cheryl" "oh, could you please go inside and calm Toni down" I nodded my head "sorry about what happened" I said even though I have no idea what they just experienced.

I walked inside the house and there Toni was balling her eyes out sitting on the stairs. "C-Cheryl? What're y-you doing here?" "I came and brought you some goods because I thought you were sick, what happened" "I think I killed him Cher, I just wanted to help my mom" I went over to her and hugged her tightly, as she put her arms on my shoulders and I rubbed her back to sooth her, she broke down more. "Shh, shh, it's ok"

I helped Toni upstairs to her room so she could go to sleep. I was about to leave when she spoke up "c-could you stay, and maybe cuddle with me, I don't want to be alone right now" I nodded my head, and slipped my shoes off before getting into bed on the side of her. She put her head on my chest and cuddled closer to me, soon drifting off to sleep.

Her mom came and stopped by the door to check on her. "How's she doing" "she stopped crying, a while ago and has been sleep ever since, I'll be on my way in a minute" "no, no it's ok, we've been trying to get her to stop crying until you got here, you can stay the night if that's alright with your mother" "yeah trust me she won't mind" "goodnight Ms. Topaz" "goodnight Cheryl" Toni's mom said as she walked out and closed the door.

I looked down at Toni and kissed her on the top of her head, I soon then drifted off to sleep, with the thought if I would be in the liking of a murderer.
