Mafia (bughead)

Part 18

Jughead POV

'What the hell Jughead?' I thought to myself as I was walking back inside. 'That was so stupid!' J-"damnit" I whispered. C-"damnit? Is she okay?" J-"oh uh... yeah, she was just feeling a little claustrophobic." I said accidentally running into Charlie near the tables. M-"Charlie come here!" Mara yelled to him, so he turned away from me and went to his wife. I let out a breath before walking back over to the table near the wall and sat down again.

B-"hey" Betty muttered as she sat down next to me.
J-"hey" I said back not looking back up from my phone. This place was boring as hell, and I had been sitting alone for about ten minutes. B-"where'd Mara and Charlie go?" J-"don't know, they went off a while ago." B-"oh." I slightly looked up to see the gorgeous blonde looking around the room again. Her eyes were filled with curiosity and sadness. I put my phone back in my pocket and carefully placed my hand on her shoulder while she was looking the other way. J-"you okay?" B-"oh uh yeah, why wouldn't I be?" She asked flipping her head towards me. J-"you look upset." B-"I'm okay." She said while picking my hand off of her shoulder. J-"okay"

After a few more minutes of silence between us, a guy walked up to Betty. ?-"hey gorgeous, wanna dance over there?" He pointed over to the corner where many people were sensually dancing with there partners to the music played throughout the room. B-"uh-" J-"sorry but she's with me." I cut in before she could answer. She looked over at me weirdly as the guy awkwardly walked away. B-"what was that?" J-"nothing" I grumbled while leaning back in my chair with my arms crossed.

Betty POV

After some random guy had made a long speech about how he's so grateful for this life or some shit, Jughead and I went back to sitting quietly on our phones. I looked over and saw that somebody was sending him multiple texts. B-"who's that?" I asked curiously. J-"Tabitha." B-"oh. Are you two a thing-"
J-"no" he said cutting me off. I didn't want to aggravate him even more than he already seemed to be, so I just left it alone. I went back to mindlessly scrolling through Instagram, and I noticed Jughead let out a small sigh before typing something on his phone.

M-"hey you two!" Mara said coming over to our table. M-"you both have looked pretty glum all night. Everything okay?" B-"oh yeah, just had a long day before this." M-"mmh I get it. Charlie and I are actually leaving right now and I wanted to say goodbye." B-"oh goodbye. I hope to see you two again." I said standing up, brushing off my dress, and then giving her a hug. B-"we'll probably leave soon too. Be safe on your way back." I said happily to her as we pulled away from the hug. M-"you too. It was nice to meet you guys." I smiled brightly before Mara walked away and met up with Charlie.

I turned around and saw Jughead also standing up behind me. I jumped and let out a little yip. B-"you okay?" J-"you're so hot" he grumbled before pulling me in and passionately kissing me.
