Mafia (bughead)

Part 20

Betty POV

B-"this is terrible! I've fucked up!" I say, pacing back and fourth in front of Veronica and Cheryl in Veronicas room. C-"I don't understand why it's such a big deal. I thought you both liked each other but just pretended to hate each other." B-"oh fuck no. Even if I wanted anything to do with him I can because of our families." I muttered the last part more quietly, but they both still heard me. V-"b, you know that it's like the best thing if you two are together. One, you'd be a HOT ass couple, two, it would solve a lot of problems." B-"me fucking Jughead would not solve any problems!" I yelled and fell down on the bed in front of Cheryl and Veronica.

Barely a second later my mom bursts into the door.
A-"you did not! I told you to get along not have sex with him!" I sat up instantly B-"I didn't!" Just then we heard the front door open and close. V-"who's that?" A-"oh your mom went out to get something I think. Elizabeth we will talk about this later." she turned around and started walking back out the door. Before she was out of earshot I yelled B-"I didn't do anything!" I sighed again and dropped my body back on the bed.

Alice POV

A-"hey hun." I said with a smile as I walk out into the kitchen, where Hermione was. She jumped a little and turned towards me. H-"oh hi love." She said clearly forcing a smile. A-"are you okay? You seem a little on edge." H-"yeah I'm fine. Just...tired." She says yawning and walking past me to our bedroom. I raise my eyebrow as I watch her walk away. A-"what the fuck." I muttered to myself.

Betty POV

I lie in my bed watching the Bo Burnham special again when I heard a soft knock on my door. I pause it, and I call a 'yes?' to whoever was at my door.
B-"mom I didn't do anything with Jughead." I said as I saw my mother walk in and sit at my vanity desk chair, facing herself towards me. A-"yeah...I believe that. I'm worried about Hermione. I think maybe there's something happening with the gang that she's not telling me." B-"what? What do you mean?"
A-"well she's been leaving more frequently and she's jumped almost every time I walk into the room."
B-"huh. Can I let V know about this?" A-"uh yeah I guess." B-"I'll have her ask about it. She might be able to get something out of her." A-"that's smart. Thanks honey, I know I can always trust you to help."

I gave a fake-ish toothless smile as she comes over and hugs me. She walks out of my room and goes who knows where. I get out of my bed and go over to Veronicas room, but just before I knock I hear her moan loudly. B-"who the fuck" I say under my breath before going back to my room and just leaving a text message instead.
B-when ur done come to my room. P.s. ur being v loud.

A few minutes later Veronica walks into my room in a silk robe and holding a plastic water bottle. V-"omg I'm so sorry B! What's up?" B-"uh well mom was saying that she think Hermione might be hiding something from her and I was thinking you might be able to get it out of her." V-"oh. Well I'll talk to her later about it." Just before Veronica left I quickly called her name. B-"this is weird but who was that?"
V-"who was what?" I raised my eyebrows and she just laughed before going back to her room after closing my door.
