When the heart bleeds ~ Bughead

Chapter 17

A few minutes passed when the 5 finally heard the hiss of the elevator.

A few seconds later, Betty's cousins came running.

"Mike, Jake, oh my God, I missed you guys so much!"

Veronica basically jumped into Jake's arms while Cheyl was hugging Mike.

Cheryl then went up to Jake to hug him while Veronica ran to Mike.

Betty stood by laughing while Jughead was still jealous and Ellie just smiled at the boys.

Then as V and C introduced themselves to Ellie, Reggie, Archie, Jason, Toni, Sweet Pea, and Fangs came in as well.

"It's nice to finally meet you guys, the girls have talked a lot about you."

Fangs said as he shook hands with the other two werewolves.

Sweet Pea on the other hand just nodded, he too didn't know what to make of Mike and Jake.

He did notice that Jughead was very skeptical of them though, so Sweet Pea distanced himself as well.

Reggie and Archie didn't really know what to do, while Jason joined Cheryl.

Toni, on the other hand, put her arm around Cheryl and introduced herself.

Mike and Jake were quite surprised that so many new people were there, but tried not to show it.

Betty got a strange feeling, so she looked around the lobby.

She was standing with her friends near the lobby where a rather rich-looking man was checking into the hotel.

There were also 5 red velvet chairs in the room.

It was quite empty which worried her a bit, because without people around the danger was greater.

"Let's go, we still have to show the others our favorite place."

Now the blonde suggested.

"Of course, darling. Shall we do some shopping first? I know you like the stores here so much. It's on me."

Now replied Mike.

"I'd love to, but the girls and I can pay on our own."

The 17 year old smiled at the werewolf.

"We'll see."

He explained and winked at Betty.

Jughead had to hold back a lot from attacking him, his anger growing.

But a fight would not be a good start for an alliance between the packs.

He just nodded and put an arm around Betty.

"Let's go shopping."

Veronica noticed how tense the mood was, so she tried to distract everybody from the two of them.

She knew Betty loved Jughead without Matebond or with.

But Veronica was also sure that Mike didn't make the best impression on Jughead and there were reasons for that.

Betty and MIke had always been very good friends, but there was more.

For a few months the two were a couple and very happy.

V herself didn't really know why the two broke up, but Betty only said she didn't want to stand in the way of his future mate.

Veronica didn't ask then, Betty would talk to her if she wanted, besides she was sure that everything was fine.
