When The Blossom Falls

Chapter 19 + RECAP

Recap: Choni are hanging out at Toni's trailer. They tried baking a cake but putting it lightly..didn't end well. However, while they were all giggly and enjoying each other's presence, Cindy came and ended their fun night after she told Toni she'll be taking her on a date. That leaves Cheryl extremely pissed due to several reasons but she masks it all by smiling.  Next day at School is where we will pick up from.

Tuesday.

Yet another dreadful day. 3 days till a short break. Second day of the school week. Whatever it was, Cheryl hated it.

Cheryl used to love school. 

She excels in every single one of her subjects, leaving her with an exceptional 4.0 GPA. But now that's just numbers and statistics.

And Cheryl knows that's a bad mentality to have. She knows. And she still tries but, school is her number one fucking enemy right now. Or second..

One reason for that?

Cindy Johnson.

Ever since the girl joined the school, she had her eyes set on Toni. She would stare at the girl for the whole of Maths, until she got the courage to ask her out, and to Cindy's surprise, Toni said yes.

Since then the two have stuck together, leaving Cheryl not only third wheeling but jealous as fuck. That was supposed to be her. She fucking hates it.

But it was inescapable. And that's how she found herself walking along with the couple in silence.

Cheryl's POV

"Hey Tones are you-" 

"Oh my god babe look at this!" Cindy grinned, turning her phone to Toni to show her something. Only to Toni.

This has been happening numerous times in the past few days. I've been completely shunned. There is no possible way that I could speak to Toni, because wherever she is, Cindy is. Following her girlfriend around like a lost puppy. 

I scoff, rolling my eyes and walked ahead of them before walking in my favourite lesson. Art.

I sit down at the back table by myself, not because I don't have friends in this class, but because I just want to be alone right now.

Cindy ruined the whole mood for me. Again.

"Okay class please open your books and complete the starter on the board. Thank you!" The teacher exclaimed and I sighed deeply, taking my theory book out before I felt a tap on my shoulder, and I jumped a little before I turned to look around at the person who did with a raised eyebrow.

But as soon as I saw who was standing in front of me, my eyes widened and the little hairs on the back of my neck stood up on end. 

Woah.

"Um hey..I saw there's a free space next to you. Can I sit here please?" The girl asked, giving me an awkward smile and as soon as she spoke, I broke out of my trance and quickly nodded.

I'm such an idiot.

"Of course." I smiled, mentally kicking myself for being so awkward. Good thing I didn't drool.

But who wouldn't?

She was so gorgeous. With her ocean blue eyes, blonde wavy hair, with two blond strands sticking out at the sides. Her cute, tiny nose and rosy soft lips. She was utterly gorgeous.

The girl was blond from root to tip. And those soulful blue eyes as bright as any glacier yet so very warm. Eyes you get easily lost in.

Fuck I'm staring again.
