Faked Rivalry (Choni)

25. Lovely

Previously (Cheryl's Phone Call POV): Either we let you and your friends free and keep her here or vice-versa. But on one condition with the second one."
"Let Toni free-" I interrupted
"Hold on. You didn't hear the condition yet."
"I don't need it."
"I think you do!"
"Fine! Just tell me!" I snapped
"She'll be surrounded by Ghoulies, you'll be surrounded by nuns. You have to break up with her. If you don't, you'll both be killed. And you are to have no attempt to resolve this at school. I'll be watching."
"You wouldn't" I began crying
"You know I would."
"Whatever! I've caused her nothing but pain! Just let her free and I'll agree to your stupid terms" I broke down.

Toni's POV:

Playing Now: Lovely by Billie Eilish ft. Khalid

I woke up in a dark basement with my arms and legs tied to a chair and my mouth duck taped. I looked around and saw Kevin and Archie. They had mumbled something but it was too hard to understand. Then I remembered.. my switchblade. What idiots! And they had forgotten to take it off me! I reached my hand inside my pocket and began cutting at the ropes. I ripped the duck tape off my mouth and went over to do the same to Kevin and Archie before I was grabbed by one of the Ghoulies.

Thought I found a way.

They put more ducktape on my mouth and stuffed me in a bag and were taking me somewhere.

Thought I found a way out.

"We're taking you to your girlfriend Pinky." One of them said

But you never go away.

Why would they be taking me to her?

So I guess I gotta stay now.

Cheryl's POV:
"Come on child, let's go." Sister Woodhouse held a gun to my head instructing me where to walk

Oh, I hope some day I'll make it out of here

"This isn't right."

Even if it takes all night or a hundred years

I looked around the forest she was leading me into, but it was off-road and I had no idea of the area.

Need a place to hide, but I can't find one near

Toni's POV:
I felt myself being dragged across a dirty path, and soon being released and untied. When I saw Cheryl approaching. I ran up to her and hugged her, then kissing her.

Wanna feel alive outside

"Cheryl!" I smiled

Cheryl's POV:
"Toni.." I frowned

I can't fight my fear

"Yeah babe?" She looked worried
"I- I can't be with you." I cried

Isn't it lovely

"Why.. I can fix things! What happened? Did I do something wrong? Was it something I said? I promise I'll make it up to you! Don't do this.." she franticly said
"I'm sorry."

All alone

Toni's POV:
I broke down crying on the floor as the Ghoulies backed away with smirks on their faces

Heart made of glass

Sweetpea and Fangs immediately came to confront me, assuming they had heard everything. I just remained still appreciating the embrace.

My mind of stone

I had just gotten her back..

Tear me to pieces

And then she just leaves me?

Skin and bone

I won't give up.

Hello, welcome home.

Fangs' POV:

Pea🤘:

Pea🤘:
Meet at the Wyrm bro. We need your help. Cheryl just broke up with Toni and disappeared into the shadows.

What the hell? On my way with the girls.

I was going to kill Cheryl. Toni loved her. She wasn't going to break up with her unexplained leaving her heartbroken in pain!

Toni's POV:
"I just don't understand Pea.." I said
"Toni, if she doesn't see what she just left she's a complete idiot. She's probably just stressed over the Sisters, maybe something bad happened." Sweetpea reasoned
"But that's a maybe! Maybe she broke up with me! Oh wait.. SHE DID!" I yelled back
Just then the door burst open and Veronica Lodge made a fake trumpet noise.
"Unexplained pity party into action!" She announced
"Alright so where'd this bitch go." Fangs said
"Fangs.." Sweetpea explained

Cheryl's POV:
I was left on my own, I had made the wrong decision. I had nowhere to go but back to my mother. Kevin was still missing and I was out in a forest with nothing but the cell phone which was returned to me.

Flashback:
"Now who'd you actually want to suggest?" I replied.
"You caught me. I was going to say you could always stay with me." Toni said
"Oh. I wasn't considering that. But thank you anyways" I replied.
End of Flashback

So I called Betty, the one we had the sleepover with.

"Cousin?"
"Cheryl I heard what you did to Toni. What the hell!"
"Betty I promise you I need help."
"Only this once cousin, where are you."

Jughead's POV:
"You're going to help Cheryl?" I questioned
"She is my cousin. She'll explain." Betty responded
"Be safe, I love you." I kissed her on the cheek
"I will be" Betty kissed me back
I told nobody to tell me anything, when Sweetpea called me I told him I wanted to work it out myself. And that I would be there for Toni. So I headed off to the Wyrm to join the others.
