She's moving to Riverdale High?
I don't know if I'm ready for this! I might meet Gemma! I'm.. excited! I'm nervous! My hands are shaking...

southsidetopaz: Cherry, I'm going to be honest. I don't know if I'm ready to know who you are. It scares me, I mean, we've only been talking for a few weeks. Let's stay anon, for now. Okay? I mean, if that's okay with you.

"Effective immediately. Southside High has shut down." I heard from the loudspeakers. I kind of laughed, I found out before anyone else at my school.

"Oh, my god." I heard Midge say under her breath.
I walked out of the girls' locker room, and into the gym. Where I found Veronica Lodge.

"Cheryl.. I want to apologise." She said.
"Go on."
"It wasn't right of me, to look through your messages.. I'm really sorry, Cheryl." She said.
"You didn't tell anyone about it, did you?" I asked.
"I-" She started.
"Veronica!" I yelled.
"I only told Betty.." She confessed. I sighed. I can't believe she'd tell! I out my head down in my hands.
"Can you please give me a minute?" I asked. I heard her heels click against the floor as she walked out.

I think I sat there for 20 minutes, just lost in thought. Then I decided to head down to the hallway. Reggie came up to me just before I walked down the stairs, and told me what was happening.

"Stand down, Eva Peron!" I called from the top of the staircase.
"Cheryl, no one invited Fascist Barbie to the party." She scoffed.
"Wrong, Veronica. No one invited Southside scum to our school. Now listen up, ragamuffins, I will not let our school's above average GPA to suffer because of classrooms that are crowded with.. underachievers." I replied. "So please, do us all a favour and find some other school to debase with your hardscrabble ways."
"Why don't you come over here and say that to my face?"
I noticed this gorgeous, pink-haired serpent, who decided to challenge me. Nobody challenges Cheryl Bombshell.
"Happily, Queen of the Buskers." I called.
After that, I didn't notice anything the redhead next to me was saying. I was too busy focusing on the pink-haired serpent.
I think she was at the Drag Race.

cherry-bomb: Were you there? When Veronica was introducing you all?
