All this time how could

Alicent glances up from her book to see a sheet of silver blonde hair go flying into the air. As always her heart stops painfully as Rhaenyra poses atop the human pyramid. Rhaenyra shoots her a cocky glance before falling backward into the waiting arms of her fellow cheerleaders.Alicent’s eyes rove over her best friend. Alicent has never confronted that side of herself, the part that enjoys looking at Rhaenyra’s legs in that skirt more than a girl should. It’s the part of her she has known to hide since she was six years old when her father drove past two women on the street holding hands and called them a slur.--- A high school AU that is self-indulgent. Cheer captain Rhaenyra and nerdy Alicent, for flavor.
