See You Again - A Choni Story

Chapter 13

Toni's POV

I was taken to the drawing room. I took my usual seat. Then I looked at the seat next to me. It was empty. Cheryl was no longer going to sit there. I read over Cheryl's letter again, then hid it in my pocket as I heard someone sit next to me.

"So she's gone then?" I felt a bit more relaxed when I recognised the voice as Fangs'.

"Yeah..."

"That really sucks. I'm really gonna miss red..." He paused and I noticed his face make a confused frown. Hey what was that thing you were just reading?" He asked.

"Just a little note from Cheryl...she says it's something to remember her by." I frowned.

"Cute...but look I know you're sad that she's gone, but at least you got to say goodbye."

"That's true." I thought back to the moment she left and the moment she kissed me. I felt so confused. Does she like me? Who am I kidding? As if she likes me. Did she do it because she thought it was what I wanted? Maybe it was a spring of the moment thing. I don't know. The only thing I can say is that I liked it, but I'm scared it may never happen again.

"So are you gonna draw something or what?" Fangs questioned. I could tell he was making an effort to to change the conversation, but we both knew it wouldn't work.

"I don't know what to draw. Cheryl and I would always come up with this sort of thing together." I exclaimed as I picked up a pencil, hoping I would think of something to draw. Fangs took the pencil from me before I could do anything.

"Okay you know what, Tiny? Forget this. What you need is a ditraction." Fangs stated as he got up. "Come with me." He added, waiting for me to grab his hand. I was curious but also nervous about where he was going to take me. I trust him, I thought and I gladly grabbed his hand.

"Where are we going?"

"Outside." He replied.

"But why?" I asked him and he looked back at me, with a large and cheeky grin on his face. He didn't answer my question. I followed him out of the building and then watched him point in a direction. I realised what his plan was.

"Nope. No way. Never gonna happen."

"Don't be a baby...and trust me...football works as a great distraction. I've tried it. Then, if you really want we can talk about Cheryl after...hell I'll even let you cry on my shoulders." He explained. Maybe it would be worth a go. No harm in trying it. Who knows, maybe it will become my new hobby.

"Fine. I'll play. But won't the other boys try and stop me playing...you know...because I'm a girl?"

"And if they do they'll have me to deal with." Fangs' protective attitude always made me smile and it made me feel as though I had a brother of my own. I had always wondered what having a sibling would feel like and this was probably the closest it was ever going to get.
