Canon

 * Heather

When Cheryl was in junior high, she had a best friend named Heather. Cheryl and Heather were really close and eventually fell in love, but Cheryl's mother, Penelope, a homophobe (who's closeted), found them in bed together and excised Heather from Cheryl's life. Cheryl, already lonely and suffering from parental abuse and neglect, hid away this huge part of herself and internalised her mother's self-hatred. 15 years later, now in their mid-20s, Cheryl learns that Heather wrote letters to her after they were separated, which Penelope intercepted. To make amends, Penelope gives Cheryl the letters and, after readng them, Cheryl decides to try to contact Heather. She learns that Heather lives in Greendale where she works as a librarian. After sending an e-mail and not hearing back for a bit, Cheryl is overwhelmed and happy to suddenly find Heather knocking on her door. Heather helps Cheryl out with the old Blossom family library and eventually admits it was a pretext to keep Heather around. Heather is glad to stick around and Cheryl confides in Heather about her pyrokinetic abilities as Heather reveals she is a witch. They continue to flirt and spend time together until they finally kiss and spend the night together. They start dating and really care about each other, but when Cheryl has to give her body temporarily to Abigail to have sex with Thomasina in Toni’s body, Heather breaks up with Cheryl, telling a heartbroken Cheryl that Cheryl and Toni are destined. Cheryl tearfully thanks Heather for opening and healing Cheryl’s heart and they part ways as Heather returns to Greendale.

 * Toni Topaz


 * Moose Mason

Cheryl and Moose make out on the dance floor, after crashing Jughead's birthday party at Archie's house. A year later, they coincidentally turn out to both have been struggling with their sexual identities and have come out. Cheryl, albeit well-intentioned, all but outs Moose in a school-wide announcement. She seeks him out at Pop's and offers her sincere apologies for taking his choice away and not understanding how wrong that was. Moose forgives her and shares with her that he and Kevin are getting together for the first time. It's a moment shared between two formerly lost and tortured people, who have trodden similar paths, and are free to finally be themselves.


 * Archie Andrews

With his red hair and well-meaning approach to people, Cheryl possibly sees someone she might get the affection her brother gave her, in her time of grief. She is flirtatious and shows interest in Archie, but is mean to his friends. When the Blossoms implore Archie to escort Cheryl to various maple syrup related events at Thornhill, Cheryl lets up on her eternally plotting behavior and lets Archie see how vulnerable she is, which leads him to defend her to the Blossom board of directors and supporting her. Cheryl's crush on Archie only grows, with him blissfully unaware, and she also puts her need for someone to care for her on him, resulting in a kiss. Archie reciprocates, but breaks it off and tells her it's not going to be.

Fanon

 * Veronica Lodge

Cheryl welcomes Veronica into her world once the latter arrives at Riverdale High, but is startled when Veronica returns Cheryl's mean tactics with interest, positioning Veronica as a clear rival to Cheryl's high school imperialism. Although they square off on many occasions, Veronica comforts Cheryl over Jason's death, which culminates in Veronica sleeping over at Thornhill to support Cheryl the day before the funeral. While Veronica is there for Cheryl, their relationship remains semi-antagonistic, especially with both of them nursing feelings for Archie, although this reason is never vocalized.
