Penelope opens the closet doors to find darkness. Penelope looks around while Toni is trying to be as still as possible. Penelope sees the many dresses hanging up with shelves storing hand bags too expensive to accessorized with any outfit. Underneath are racks of shoes, some that have never been worn, others that have been worn 0once, but never more than two times in a week. Penelope closes the door and heads back out of Cheryl's room to let her get ready. Both Toni and Cheryl wait until Penelope is downstairs before Toni comes out of the closet. Cheryl locks her bedroom door and brings Toni back into her lavish closet, in there they start kissing passionately again. Toni pulls away a little while longer.
"You have to get ready or else your Mom will think something is up." says Toni as she's almost out of breath.
"I have an idea." says Cheryl.
Cheryl takes Toni out of her closet and into her bathroom straight across, Cheryl then turns on the shower.
"We're going to shower together!" says Cheryl in an excited but hushed voice.
"Sounds good to me." replies Toni in a hushed voice getting the catch so that Penelope doesn't hear them.
Cheryl check the temperature of the water and brings Toni in, the bathroom already quite steamy. In the shower, Cheryl and Toni kiss some more and clean themselves from last night in between breaths. Cheryl and Toni can't get enough of each other, they stay in the shower for so long that Penelope yells at Cheryl for taking too long. They get out of the shower and get dressed.
"Wait here until I know what we're doing today, so I can try and sneak you out, I don't want my Mom knowing about us just yet." whispers Cheryl.
Toni nods and Cheryl leaves the room closing the door behind her. Toni can hear conversation from downstairs, then Toni hears footsteps coming up the stairs and she dashes back into the closet before Cheryl enters the room. When Cheryl clarifies it her, Toni comes out.
"Mommy is going out again, we can go out to Pop's and then we'll part ways from there." says Cheryl with a planning look on her face.
"Ok, sounds good, besides, when will we tell people about us?" asks Toni looking for an answer.
"This will have to take time, my Mom, and the rest of the town will not take this as nothing when they know about us." says Cheryl looking slightly worried.
Cheryl and Toni wait until Penelope leaves, Cheryl checking her window every so often and checking the door every once and awhile. Once they made sure Penelope left, Cheryl and Toni left for Pop's Diner, holding hands where it was more private to hold them. When they got to Pop's, Cheryl came in first, then Toni. They sat in separate spots and Toni left a little while later giving Cheryl a little flirty look before heading out the door
Two Days Later
Toni gets a message on her phone from Cheryl.
Hey, do you want to come over and have more fun?
Toni thinks about it, she hasn't been able to get her mind off of Cheryl for the past two days.
Yeah sure, what time do you want me there?
Cheryl replies
I'm not sure, my Mom is about to leave again so i'll let you know when you can head over.
Toni replies back for the last time
Sure that works, can't wait to see you again.
Cheryl leaves her a heart emoji before signing off. Toni waits at Pop's Diner with Jughead, not long after she gets the text message and all clear from Cheryl that she can come over. Toni gets to Cheryl's house in 5 minutes, with Cheryl waiting at the front door rushing Toni in as soon as she gets to the front door. Toni and Cheryl rush upstairs and start kissing passionately once again, stripping each other's clothes off like it's the end of the world. They make their way to the shower that is already running, the bathroom already full of steam. They kiss each other not wanting to let go, kissing each other all over each other's bodies as the shower rains water down on them. They last all throughout the night and Penelope doesn't return the next morning, so they head off to school together. Once they get on school grounds, they separate from each other, Toni going to the Serpents and Cheryl going her way to her locker. The bell rings and both girls head off to class, the day ends up going by in a blur.
The weekend comes around and Cheryl and Toni hang out this time, except they're out on their first official date at Pop's Diner. When the girls got to the diner, there were few people there so it wasn't a big deal. The girls shared a milkshake, they each got themselves a burger, and they shared a basket of onion rings. Later they went back to Cheryl's house and Toni stayed the night again, keeping Cheryl company as Cheryl's Mom had so many clients these days. The night came and went, faster than usual, but you know what they say, time flies when you're having fun. The next morning...
Penelope opens the door to her house, exhausted from her little side job. She goes upstairs expecting Cheryl to still be in bed. Penelope walks up the stairs and walks to the end of the hallway to Cheryl's room, she turns the doorknob and opens the door. When Penelope finds what's lying beside her daughter in the same bed with a just a bra and underwear on, all Penelope can do is stare in horror.
