Worst of You | Choni

chapter 26

Toni walked out of the bedroom with the biggest smirk on her face. Valarie looked at Toni one last time before walking the other way with a smile on her face.

"Thanks for that. It was needed." Valerie admitted as she walked away.

Toni nodded at the new girl and walked away to find her friends. She looked around the room and spotted SweetPea and approached him.

"Hey Sweets." Toni greeted as she reached over the table behind him to pour herself a drink into a plastic cup.

"Hey Tiny.. Where you coming from?" SweetPea asked.

"Oh you know... Same old, same old." Toni admitted.

"Ohhh... So I'm assuming a hookup." SweetPea stated.

"You're assumption is right." Toni confessed with a huge smirk on her face.

SweetPea shook his head at the girl in front of him.

"When are you gonna stop that and realize that there's people out there that you know have actual feelings for you and you're just playing them." SweetPea stated.

Toni shrugged her shoulders.

"I don't know what you're talking about."

"Yeah.. You never do cause when you see that there's a girl that you might actually care about, you push them away even if they care about you too." SweetPea shook his head again as he spoke to the girl.

Toni just looked up at him and had nothing to say because in her mind.. She had thought maybe it was true, come to think about everything.

"Okay... Other than that fact... I saw something interesting just now and I'm hoping it makes you come to your senses." SweetPea confessed.

"Oh yeah? What's that?" Toni asked as she took a sip from her plastic cup.

SweetPea looked at Toni as she took sips of her drink.

"I saw Cheryl and Reggie going up to a room together." SweetPea admitted as he looked down at his friend.

Toni looked back up at SweetPea and gave him a confused look.

"Okay? Why are you telling me this? I don't care." Toni said with a small laugh as she took another sip of her drink.

SweetPea sighed.

"I've seen the way you look at her, Toni. In all the years I've known you... I have never seen you look at a girl the way you look at her." SweetPea admitted.

Toni stopped what she was doing and looked up to him for about a minute before she spoke up again.

"See that is where you're wrong, Pea. I-I don't like Cheryl like that. Really. Trust me she was just another girl." Toni stuttered as she avoided complete eye contact with SweetPea.

"Okay if that's true... Look me in the eye and tell me to my face that you do not have feelings for Cheryl Blossom." SweetPea challenged the smaller girl.

"If you can look into my eyes and tell me that, I will believe you. I'll be able to tell if you're lying because you never like to look people in the eye when you lie." SweetPea added.

Toni cleared her throat and looked down at her drink and took a large sip then looked back up into the eyes of the much taller serpent in front of her

"I... I..." Toni stuttered.

"Go ahead, Tiny. Tell me you don't have feelings for her."

Toni sighed as she continued to look into his eyes.
