Noncanon OTP Prompt Collection Challenge (2/40 innocent)
Take a Prompt, Leave a Prompt (board game)
"You cheated!"
Toni leans back in her chair, a small smile on her lips. "Moi? Cheat?" she asks sweetly, savoring the dusty pink that creeps into Cheryl's cheeks. "I would never."
Cheryl leans forward, tapping a perfectly manicured nail against the Monopoly board. "Don't try to play innocent. Serpents cheat."
"Yeah. We cheat people," Toni concedes. "We don't cheat at board games. Well, Tall Boy, maybe. Gotta watch him."
Her girlfriend lets out an irritated groan. "I always win at Monopoly," she insists. "Every time JJ and I would play, I would always win!"
Toni raises a brow, a smirk on her lips. Of course Cheryl would win. If this is how she reacts to losing, Toni imagines everyone would deliberately throw the game to avoid a meltdown. Toni, on the other hand, doesn't care. She doesn't mind indulging Cheryl's little whims from time to time; given Cheryl's privileged upbringing, Toni often finds herself having to give in. However, Toni doesn't mess around when it comes to board games.
"Suck it up, princess," she chuckles. "I won fair and square. Deal."
Cheryl huffs. The soft pink in her face darkens, but she remains silent. By now, she has learned that Toni isn't like her little mindless drones. She has a spine and isn't afraid of upsetting anyone, even those she loves. "Fine. But I will win the next one. Got it?"
"If you can beat me," Toni laughs, gathering the pieces and putting them away before folding the board and returning it to its box. "How about a game of Clue?"
"You cheat at that too."
Toni rolls her eyes, putting the box away. She doesn't bother to correct her girlfriend. "Whatever you say, dear," she says, a teasing lilt in her voice. "So, not Clue. Sorry? Battleship?"
"I'm tired of board games." Cheryl rests her legs on the coffee table, crossing them at the ankles. "I think another type of game might be better."
Toni grins, crossing the room and capturing Cheryl's lips in a quick kiss. "I can play those games too."
