“A what?” Toni asked, eyebrow raised and lip curled.
“A road trip.” Cheryl said with a grin.
“No.”
Cheryl’s mouth dropped open in surprise and Toni just folded her arms.
“What do you mean ‘no’?” Cheryl asked.
“I’m not going on a roadtrip with you.” Toni replied simply. Cheryl squeaks and puts her hands on her hips with a frown.
“Why not?”
“Oh come on Cher, it’s totally cliche during the summer.” Toni laughed.
They’d been relaxing, just totally chilling out in the first week of summer vacation after a stressful year in Riverdale high school. Toni’s trailer may not have had the same air conditioning as Thistle House but it had less psychotic family members.
So naturally Cheryl barely went home.
Now, however, she was questioning why she spent so much time with Toni.
“How can you not want to spend a couple weeks with me, and only me, driving away from Riverdale and with a new motel every night?” Cheryl asked.
Toni scoffed and shook her head.
“And hear you complaining about having a numb ass from being on a bike all day? No thanks babe.” Toni snorted.
Cheryl rolled her eyes, her hand catching Toni’s as she walked past, their fingers tangling as Cheryl tugged her back towards her. Toni couldn’t help but smile softly as Cheryl pulled her down to sit next to her on the sofa.
Toni sighed and let her arm fall along the back of the sofa as Cheryl shuffled closer, her fingertips skating over Toni’s collarbone where her shirt had slipped down. Cheryl bit her lip and curled her fingers over Toni’s shoulder, palm pushing flat against warm skin, her other arm slipping around Toni’s neck.
“Are you sure?” Cheryl purred. Toni swallowed roughly, her arm on the back of the sofa slipping down to Cheryl’s waist, her other hand landing on Cheryl’s thigh.
“Um.. uh- sure of, sure of what?” Toni stuttered.
Cheryl leaned closer, a sly smile sliding over her lips as Toni’s eyes grew wider and her cheeks dusted pink.
“Are you sure… you don’t want to go on a roadtrip with me?” Cheryl asked softly, her lips brushing the shell of Toni’s ear, smirking when she felt Toni’s grip tighten on her waist.
“We.. don’t have a car.” Toni squeaked.
“I can find one.” Cheryl said airly, leaning back to look at Toni’s face.
“You… can find… a car?” Toni asked, blinking heavily as she licked her lips.
“I have my ways.” Cheryl murmured.
“We’re still talking about the car right?” Toni asked with a smirk.

Toni was barely awake, wrapped up in her sheets and pink hair strewn across the pillow when Cheryl came bounding into the bedroom.
“Babe. Up. Let’s go.” Cheryl said with a clap of her hands.
Toni groaned and pushed her face further into the pillow.
“No.” Toni grumbled.
“You don’t even know what I’ve got planned.” Cheryl huffed, rummaging around in Toni’s closet.
