Living With My Brother's Bestfriend (choni)

chapter 10

Toni's  POV
1:20 PM

Cheryl's been avoiding me every chance she got, Not gonna lie it hurt. Today was Saturday, School was closed all week due to the electrical problem. I was sitting in the kitchen.

Penelope, my mom, Julia, and Jason, went out and won't be back till later. So it's just me and cheryl. Fuck.

Cheryl hasn't even been out her room, well only to get food. But she quickly runs back upstairs. Jason have been keeping me company, but not today. Him and Julia are gonna go catch up.

I was on my phone minding my own business. Cheryl came down stairs. I looked up from my phone and smiled, A friendly smile. She just looked back down and got what she need and left.

That hit different. It's like when you mom tells you that you can't get the certain toy, you really want. And that hurts.

I just shrugged it off and ran up to my room. I got a notification.

Ronnie🤞🏾: hey tones. I'm having a party at my house. Wanna come?Xx

Well I guess I could use a distraction.

Me:sure why not. Whose gonna be there?Xx

Ronnie🤞🏾: just inner circle only. Well most of the inner circle, ginger and half the cheerleading squad.

Me: oh uh okay I guess. I was bored anyway. What time?

Ronnie🤞🏾: it started already. Cheryl can come along too.

I froze.

Me: uh me and cheryl aren't on talking terms. You text her, more details later.

Ronnie: uh okay I'll text her now. Xx

Me: okay. See ya❤

I quickly showered then got dressed.

Cheryl's POV

I was laying in bed. Just strolling through Instagram. When Veronica's icon popped up on my phone, indicating that she texted me.

Veronica❗: hey cheryl. Party at my house, ya coming. Half of the cheerleading squad and inner circle only.

Me: uh inner circle you mean Toni too?

Veronica❗: nope. Toni says she isn't up for partying at the moment.

Me: oh uh okay. Sure I'm on my way.

Veronica❗: okay cool.

I quickly showered and did my makeup then got dressed. When I walked out Toni was sitting in the living on her phone.

I just kept my head down and walked out thistle house.

Yes, I'm gonna avoid her. I'm not good with expressing my feelings. Especially these feelings.

I got in my car and drive to veronica's house.

2:40 PM. Veronica's house

"Cheryl!" Veronica called me over. I went up to her and betty.

"What's up guys!" I shouted, the music loud through the speakers.

"Nothing much. Just chilling in the kitchen...." Betty trailed off. She was looking towards the door, I snapped my head the direction she was looking at.

Toni Topaz. Of freaking course. I glared at veronica.

"What? She said she wasn't up for it. I-I guess she changed her mind" veronica rambled clearly lying.
