Angel's POV
I walk out of the school relived, Midge kept giving me looks, Reggie and Archie glared while Veronica kept staring holes into my head as well
She and I haven't talked since the dinner and she's still pissed with me and our mother I would guess too
I look around till I, met with my girl standing with her arms crossed as she stands at the edge of the stairs
"So....let's talk" She says and I sigh
"Baby......look I have a lot on my plate right now and I'm just handling it and while I want to spend time with you...I can't do it as much as I used to anymore...for now" I say and Cheryl scoffs
"Tell me the real reason Angel...because you may be busy but you don't have to be out with friends everyday or be at baseball practice everyday...I know your schedule for work at the Wyrm so don't lie to me this time" Cheryl says and I gulp
Oh shit...damn her being a good girlfriend...well unofficial girlfriend
"I uh....I" I stutter out
"Are you bored....is it someone else....am I clingly" Cheryl says sadly as I walk closer to her to comfort her by grabbing onto her arms and pulling her a little bit closer
As I do this, I hear the door behind us open and Toni, Sweetpea, Fangs and Midge walk out, Midge winks at me before latching onto Sweetpea
I see Toni give me a look and I wave them off before turning to a sad looking Cheryl
"Baby I-
"Tell me the truth Angel" She demands
"Cheryl we......we've been spending so much time together and I.....I want time away" I say and immediately regret as Cheryl detaches from me immediately
No no no no I didn't mean it like that
"You wanna break up...well....stop seeing each other" Cheryl says and I immediately shake my head
"No no that's not what I'm saying babe....I'm saying that we've been spending so much time together and I just wanna branch out and spend time with friends too" I say and Cheryl shakes her head
"I'm too clingy....I understand Angel it's ok....you should have just said that the first time" She says before taking off to her car, I immediately run after her as she gets into her car
"Baby please don't be mad...I love spending time with you I just....I wanna see friends too" I say as I see tears coming down her face but Cheryl ignores me
"I'll give you some space Angel.....a lot of space" She says before takin off down the road, I yell out in frustration as I drop to my knees
Fuck! What did I just do
—————————
I sit in Pops with my mother as I move my fork back and forth in my food, I let out a sad breath as Cheryl hasn't left my mind for the last few hours
I could see the hurt in her eyes and this is exactly what I wanted to avoid with her because I know she needs people but she barely has any friends besides me and some of the serpents
"So....how is everything Angel" My mom asks as she eats and my gaze remains in the table
"Good...fantastic even" I say in a low voice, I hear her fork hit the plate causing my eyes to move to her
"What's going on Angel....I know we're...not on the best of terms but I can tell your upset and while I am not entitled to know things...I don't want to see you so sad" She says and I sigh as I put my fork down and sit back
"I- I messed up with Cheryl.....she...she and I have been spending so much time together and while I love it....I wanna spend time with my friends and she just doesn't understand...I have other responsibilities too and....she wants all of my attention" I rant as I see my mother nodding
"I see....from what I know....she's going through a lot Angel and she's relying in you to keep her company which isn't bad but...she needs to branch out...does she have friends" My mom asks and I shake my head
"Not outside of me and the serpents" I say as I take a sip from my Coca-Cola bottle
"Ok...why doesn't she hang out with them" She suggests
"She hates going to the Whyte Wyrm...men hit in her repeatedly and she doesn't like bars...she only knows the Northside" I say and my mother sighs heavily
"Angel....looks like you have to be brutally honest...in relationships you need honesty even if it hurts the other person, it shows care and respect as well as companionship...learn from me and my husband" My Mother says as she looks down a sadly and I awkwardly adjust in my seat
"That's easier said than done.....how do I even do this...I can't stand seeing her upset" I say and my mother carefully take my hand and I don't stop her
"Go to her house and talk to her...tell her straight that you care about her and while you love spending time with her and won't stop....sometimes it better you both do things apart" She says and I smile a bit
"Thanks...mom" I say and my mother smiles
"Anytime...now...I do want to address the whole....telling our sister thing with you" She starts and I sigh
"I know and while I'm sorry abo-
"You did the right thing" My Mother cuts off and I frown at her
"What" I say confused and she looks at me with shame
"You were right to tell your sister...and while I wish it wasn't before the dinner, I can't blame you...I should have told her months ago especially after she disrespected you...I will handle your sister so don't worry about her from now on regarding her behavior" Hermione says and I nod
"Oh...ok...thank you" I say and she gives me a weak smile
"No need to thank me sweetheart, it's the right thing to do" She says before picking up her cup of water and taking a drink as I start to eat my food, I smile a little as I feel a bit of weight being lifted off me
Maybe making up will be good...baby steps
A/n awww Hermione is starting actually be a parent lmao, let me stop because I'm literally writing this so obviously I'm making things happen
Enjoy:)
