My friends call me Cherry...

“How do you know all of this?…”

“I’m kinda a dork who knows useless stuff.”

He noticed when she scooted closer to him, but decided not to comment on it. “You know… I really like Kristoff. And his reindeer.”

“He’s pretty awesome and Sven is amazing. disney brought in an actual reindeer to be able to do the movements right but he didn’t do anything. So they got a dog.”

He usually didn’t like people touching him, but he couldn’t help but chuckle. “I am, I am…” he said.

Cherry giggles and scoots a little closer to him. “Good, you should be.”

“Elsa seems happy now…” he said quietly.

“She does, doesn’t she?” Cherry looks at him. She tries to make him smile. “You should smile, it’s a happy part.”

“Well… Thanks..”

“Of course.” She smiles before turning back to the movie in time to sing along to “Let it Go”

He shrugged, feeling guilty. “I don’t know… Just for having a different opinion, I guess..”

“Don’t appolgize for your opinion. It’s how oyu feel.” She says genuinely.

“Sorry…” he grumbled.

“Why? you have nothing to be sorry for.” She gives him a smile.

He just shook his head, not wanting to talk about it anymore. “Look, you can do whatever works for you.. But I want to forget things. It’s already shaped me into who I am, I don’t need to carry that extra weight with me.”

Cherry just shrugs, not feeling the energy to argue about this. She just sticks a piece of candy in her mouth. “I suppose.” She sighs.

“It’s shitty.. And it really fucking hurts…. But.. You really can’t do anything about it… All you can really do is try to forget…”

“Y-you shouldn’t forget you know. The pain of our past helps shape us into who we become.”

“I’m really sorry, Cherry.. Really, I am… I know how shitty that is. It’s awful and it’s not fair, not at all…”

“Yeah,” She whispers, sniffling and whispering her nose. “It’s not. You know, not even a reason as to why...”

“You can…” he said softly, knowing this wasn’t a time for sarcasm. “I mean, you heard all about mine, so…”

“My ex had a daughter, so he knew all about this stuff.” Cherry said, sighing. “Last winter, we went out for a walk and Something lead to me singing the song and he joined in and by the end of the song, people thought we got engaged. That’s when we started dating... And then he just up and left without a word...” Cherry shrugs but blinks and looks down.

“Shit… I’m sorry…”

“It’s okay. It’s the past. I’m not going t bore you with stories of romnace loved and lost.” She smiles softly

He wasn’t stupid. Though he had never seen her upset, it wasn’t too hard to tell. Grayson may be a bullshitter, but he could see right through her bullshit. “No, you’re not. What’s wrong?…”

“Just.. memories.” Sh says with a small nod. “Of.. My ex...”

Grayson rolled his eyes as the first love duet started. He didn’t want to hear about love, he had had enough of that. Cherry began to sing but when she stopped, Grayson turned to look at her. Her eyes looked glassy and she was eating South Patch Kids, almost as if to avoid crying. And her silence contender him because just forty-five minutes ago, she had been so excited about singing along to the movies. “Cherry?.. You alright?…”

Cherry heard her name being called and blinks a couple of times before turning to her companion. “Y-yeah.” She said, her voice cracking. She clears her throat. “I’m fine.” She whispers this time, more telling herself she’d be fine more than telling him.

“Oh, okay…”

Cherry smiles at before Curling more with the pillow, watching, biting her lip, enjoying.

“So… The blonde girl doesn’t want to get close to her sister because she’s afraid that she’ll hurt her?…”

“Yeah, because at the beginning, remember she struck her and she’s afraid to hurt her again. And the Blond is Elsa and the redhead is Anna.”
