Tell me a lie

For days it had been the same thing they would go to school Nick would make strange comments about any guy who came near Charlotte including Archie and jughead. They would go home, ambrose would leave to do something, Sabrina would come and spend some time with them and then at night Nick and her would have sex and he would get so rough she would be covered in bruises.
Friday night was different though Betty had asked about a girls night and Charlotte was more than happy to be without Nick for the night she practically jumped at the thought.
"So Charlotte come on. What's bothering you? Too much time with Nick?" Betty gave Veronica a harsh look and Charlotte huffed.
"It's been a week and he has not stopped with the sex."
"Sounds like heaven."
"Trust me it's far from it. Normally I can take whatever he throws at me but lately..."
"Charlotte, you need to talk to him. I'm sure if you tell him how you feel he'll calm down." She sat down finally taking a breath.
"Yeah you're right Betty." She thought for a moment before Veronica spoke up.
"Archie can be kinda rough if something is bothering him. Has Nick said anything about that? When did he start acting like this?" Charlotte frowned sitting up to look at her friends.
"Since my sister came to stay..." Betty looked up from her phone.
"Does he not like you're sister?" Charlotte got up shoving her jumper on looking for her shoes.
"Oh quite the opposite. He admitted he loved her while we were together."
"Where are you going?" She opened the bedroom door grabbing her bag.
"To tear Nick a new asshole." The girls looked at eachother and grabbed their stuff following her friend.

Nick was sat in the armchair reading a book that he was quite engrossed in, so engrossed in fact he didn't notice Sabrina sitting on the couch looking at him until he reached for his drink finally looking up.
"Shit- Sabrina. You scared me half to death." He closed his book as she gave him a sly smile. "What?" He threw the book on the table raising an eyebrow.
"Nothing, I just missed you Nick." He gave a short smile.
"I missed you too." She smiled again and stood up.
"How much did you miss me?" He looked down placing his glass to the side huffing.
"Sabrina-"
"Come on Nick... she's not here..." slowly she sat down straddling his lap. "I hear you you know... every night... I know you do it to get me out of your head Nick..." he was looking up at the ceiling trying everything to not focus on her. That when he finally huffed pushing her off his lap.
"I am in love with your sister Brina. Now please. Leave it alone." She got up with a sad look on her face.
"But you told me you loved me... the day I died. I held onto that memory Nick. I didn't want to die without kissing you again. And I did... you know I died because you took to long." He frowned looking up at her with devastation in his eyes.
"What." She let a tear fall and nodded.
"You took to long in the void... maybe if you had just been a little more quick." He stood up inches away from her.
"Stop it Sabrina! You know I did everything I could! And when you died I wanted to be gone to! That's why I- I-"
"You lied to her?" He recoiled a little and Sabrina scoffed.
"I knew it. I knew she wasn't the one written on your heart. Come on Nick. Get rid of her. Then we can be together." Nick was so wrapped up in his head and trying to process his emotions when she kissed him that he didn't even notice. He pushed her away still close to his face but this time he was angry.
"You're wrong Sabrina. It wasn't you. It never was. I loved you. But it would never and will never compare to her.
The was a bang as the front do burst open. Nick turned around still holding Sabrina by the shoulders as Charlotte walked in. She took one looked at him and her jaw tightened.
"You've got to be fucking kidding me!" Veronica and Betty walked in behind her and saw the lipstick on nicks lips.
"Betty go and call jughead I think we might need both boys here before Charlotte kills someone." Betty nodded rushing back outside to call the boys and Nick gave a smile letting go of Sabrina.
"Lottie you're back-" he was bought to a stop by a harsh slap across the face.
"Don't lottie me."
"Char-" she looked at her sister with a face of disgust.
"Don't! Don't you dare! I was so fucking happy you were back! Do you have any idea what a living hell it has been without you! I would've sooner handed myself over to our father than live that again! Was it not enough for you Sabrina?! I ask one thing of you! That you let me be happy! But yet again I walk in to find you two! Couldn't you let me have him this once!"
"Lottie..." Nick reached for her arm and she stepped back yanking her arm away.
"DONT TOUCH ME!" She looked at Sabrina. "Leave! I don't want to see your face! You leave this house and you never come back!" Sabrina was quick to walk out of the house receiving a dirty look from Veronica on the way out. Nick stood looking at her with tears in her eyes.
"Please... lottie I'm begging you." She shook her head looking away.
"I'm sick of the sight of you Nick." She walked up the stairs and Nick huffed chasing her as Veronica chased him.
"Really Charlotte?! That's it! You're doing this again! The great Charlotte can never stick around when the going gets tough." They got to the bedroom and she started throwing his things at him.
"This isn't getting tough Nick! You kissed her! Again!" He looking at her in pure anger as she ripped the locket from her neck throwing it at him, Veronica ran downstairs to get help when Nick caught the locket stepping forward with quick steps grabbing Charlotte by the face. He got inches away from her and screamed in her face so close that she could feel his breath on her face.
"I DIDNT KISS HER." She let her tears fall as he pushed her roughly against the wall opting to hold her throat instead. She punched his chest as he screamed in her face finally she allowed the fear to become apparent and Nick was suddenly torn away from her and she coughed looking up to see jughead stood in front of her and Archie shoving Nick against the wall.
"Hey! Call your shit!" Archie shouted at the boy who then started laughing.
"Ohhhhh so that's it. You're so desperate to get rid of me so he can take my place!" Charlotte kept herself pressed against the wall now she hadn't noticed Betty and Veronica attempting to make her look away. She was fixated on the bloodthirsty look in nicks eyes and he laughed. "Hey Betty you know he still wants to fuck her right?" Jughead lost himself in anger and stepped forward.
"Shut the fuck up." He went to hit him but was stopped by Archie who now held both the boys apart.
"Betty get jughead downstairs! Now!" He shouted and the blonde did as asked. Archie then turned to Nick who was laughing to himself in hysteria. "Stop it man. Look. You're scaring her." Nick didn't stop until Archie called for Ronnie to get Charlotte out of the room. She took her across the hall to the bathroom and Archie pushed Nick to sit on the bed. "Now me and you are gonna talk about what the fuck just happened."
