Betty POV
The dance before school was today. I was going to tell jug my feelings and hopefully start something up. V said he didn't hear me and doesn't remember what I said so that's good, but I kinda want him to remember, it was easier saying it drunk for the first time then saying it, and maybe having pain after.

Me, Fangs, Cheryl and V are in my room changing and getting our hair done.
"Okay so I need advice, reg asked me to go with him as friends, I really like him and want to start something up, should I?"
"YES V OMG YES!" Fangs shouts
"Really, is it too soon?"
"No, Cheater deserves everything he gets and you moving on with Reggie is a hit in the face for him!" Cheryl makes clear
"Ill see."

Once our hair is done and dresses/suits on we all go to the dance where the hall is full of music and other people.

I go and get a drink and stand with v, in the centre of the dance floor.
She takes my hand and gives me a reassuring smile.
"It'll be okay B, he wants to be with you, I can see it!"
"I hope so! I've screwed up so many times with us, trusted wrong people, betrayed you."
"And I forgive you every time our friendship means more to me than anything and you should know that!"
"I do and I appreciate you!"
I wait a bit more before Jug enters.
He's not wearing his beanie, and has done his hair in a nice way. His eyes find mine and Reggie and him find their way to me and V.
"Veronica, would you like to dance?"
"I would love to Reg!"
They disappear into the crowds.
"Hey Jug."
"Hey Betts."
Betts he hasn't called me that in a while.
"Would you like to dance?" He asks
"Yes!"
He takes my and and we begin dancing. The songs a slow dance one so it's the best time to talk.
"Jug, I'm just gonna say it and I understand if you don't feel the same, I like you, I love you I want to be with you."
I hold my breath and he places a hand on my cheek and looks into my eyes, "Betty, I love you too and want to be with you."
I smile and he leans in and we kiss.

Veronica POV
I'm dancing with Reggie and I'm a bit tense
"Hey you okay your tense?" He says
"Yeah just hope they end up happy!"
"Me too, but I also want you happy, you just dealt with a heartbreak and you straight away go help Betty, putting your feelings aside, you should be happy Ronnie," Archie called me that. I look into his eyes and kiss him, and he back.
"You make me happy Reg!" I smile and he kisses me again.

After I look over at Betty and Jug and they are in a deep kiss in the centre of the dance floor.
I call over the others and they run over
"AHHH YOU GO GIRL!" Fangs shouts
"YES CUZZZZ!" Cheryl cheers
"YES SERPENT KING AND QUEEN EVERYONE!" Toni shouts
"YES BETTYYYYYY AND JUGGGGIEEEEE!"
They hear the cheers and laugh and look over at us and face each other again dancing.
I smile, bughead, check, veggie, check.
This nights a good night.
But what a surprise I speak too soon.......


I see entering the room an Archie and Abby.
"Guys guess who's here?" I say
"NOOOOOOO OMG ANYTIME THESE TWO ARE HAPPY THEY COME AND RUIN IT IMMA THROW MORE PUNCHES, AHHHHH IMMA KILL SOMEONE TONIGHT!!!" Kev announces and we follow him storming up to them.
"What are you doing here?" Toni yells
"Came for the party, after all I'm the newest student here!" Abby announces
"And you Archie what about you?" I yell furiously and holding Reggie hand
"I'm here to help my girlfriend settle in and I'll be visiting frequently I may just come back! Yeah I will!" He says giving Abby a kiss.
I turn to Reggie whilst the others are arguing, "Reg it's your job to make sure bughead stays together and not let these rat people near them!"
"Will do Ronnie!"
"Ah Ronnie that's what he calls you?" Archie says and I turn around
"Yeah what's it to you?"
"Nothing Ronnie!" He says and Abby giggles
I walk up to her and slap her in the face and Archie moves in front of her as she squeals
As he goes up to me Kev and Fangs go behind me
"I've punched a few people, don't wanna mess with me arch!" Kev warns
"Yeah and I'm a serpent, never wanna mess with one because you'll mess with them all!" Fangs threats
He rolls his eyes and takes Abby to the dance floor.
I run to go and find bughead or reg.
I spot Betty and run as fast as possible to her.

Betty POV
I hear the squeals of our friends and I lol at jug and laugh. I turn back and there gone, weird. I look back at a smiling Jughead and say, "a smile looks good on you."
"Well you make that, this smile, my happiness, you create that!"
"Aww Juggie, and I don't intend on messing us up this time, whatever it is, we'll fight it! That's my promise!"
"I promise that too! Let's seal this promise shall we?" As we are about to kiss I hear a shouting V run up to us.
"Hey V, um what's up?" I say awkwardly
"Just follow me and run!"
I get scared and feel Jugs hand in mine as we run and follow V.
We get to Cheryl's room and V opens it.
"Um V this isn't your or my room, you know that right?" Jug says as confused as I am.
"Look just stay in here all night if you have to just for now, Choni said they crash out somewhere else, we have to keep anything from ruining this relationship!"
"God V just tell us what's happened?"
"Archie and Abby are here and they have just got in as a student."
I feel Jugs hand tighten around mine and I look at v who looks genuinely scared for whatever comes in the future.
