The day before the Metball 

Betty was at her home when Veronica called her and asked her to meet at pops. She didn't feel like moving even a little bit. Her heart ached from the rejection that Jughead Threw at her face. She didn't want to go anywhere now, just sit in her bed and cry all day long and listen to slow songs that reminded her of how foolish she was to have asked the boy she liked. 

Of course, he didn't like her. who would like little miss perfect. And certainly not a boy like Jughead. He was the southside king (in the process). he rode a badass bike and was surrounded by all of his badass gang. 

Betty was really mad at herself and at Veronica but more at herself for letting herself talked into such a thing. 

When Veronica called Betty, Betty tried to deny her as much as possible but her persuasive skills of Veronica didn't let her. So now, B was getting ready to go to pops. She put her hair in a messy but and some dark clothes so that's he wasn't visible much. 

She went out of her room and thank god her mom wasn't out there to see her like this or she would have freaked out very much. 

When Betty reached pops she sat at the booth where Veronica was sitting with the jock - Moose. Only one thing came to Betty's mind. 

B- V seriously! 

V- yeah B, don't you feel the magic in the air. 

B- No! he is Moose 

V- I know and isn't he lovely ?!

B- No Veronica the fight you had with Archie isn't big enough to just break up. He will get his heart shattered. and that too with MOOSE!? No offense dude (looking at Moose)

M- no worries. 

V- wait what! NO! I am not breaking up with Archie. hell, we are going to the ball together. I invited Moose to set you up with him. at least for the Metball. 

At the mention of the Metball Moose started sobbing a bit. He was missing Midge  

Veronica took Betty aside. 

V- look at yourself B. I can see the puffiness under your eyes. these dark-colored clothes and that messy bun, all this is a cry for help if I have ever heard one. I know you fell for Jughead, hard. and I won't tell you to forget about him Trust me I have a plan to make him your boyfriend. 

As much as Betty didn't want to go to the ball with Moose, she wanted to be with Jughead more. And the sight of Moose sobbing didn't do any good.  Eventually she gave in. 

V- Okay so, Moose I would like you to meet Betty and Betty this is Moose so, I think you have met. 

B- okay V, what do you have in mind, what is the plan 

M- yeah I want to be with my Midge back. 

V - okay, now the plan is that you both will be going to the Metball together. 

Okay said both Betty and Moose at eth same time.
