TW:Sexual assault. Please don't read if you're uncomfortable.
Jughead had just arrived at school. He had his earphones on as usual trying to avoid everyone. The only person he couldn't avoid was Reggie. It felt like he was watching him 24/7 and Jughead hated it. Everyday after the bell rang,while he walked to class Reggie would grab him by the waist,arm,jacket and pull him into the music room,bathroom or sometimes the student lounge if everyone was in class. He'd press Jughead against the wall and start kissing him. Always trying to remove his clothes. Jughead didn't let Reggie go any further than just kissing. Except for this one time. Reggie went down to Jugheads neck trying to leave hickeys. Once he tried pushing him off Reggie grabbed his neck. And every time Jughead wouldn't cooperate he would grip on tighter leaving bruises. He'd bang him into the wall,punch him,Slap him. Anything to make Jughead feel like shit. Reggie and Jughead weren't even dating. Reggie sill hated him and bullied him. He just wanted to let out his sexual frustration and anger on jughead. Well it was 9am and the same old was happening. Jughead and Reggie were 'making out' in the music room until someone walked in. Jugheads best friend,
Archie Andrews. "What the hell?!" He shouted making Reggie let go of Jughead allowing him to breathe properly while tears slowly fell down his face. "Get the fuck away from him" Archie walked up to him and grabbed Reggie by the jacket, throwing him out the room. Then went over to Jughead who was sitting on the floor having a literal panic attack. "Jug,you okay?" He asks. all Jughead did was lean against Archie and close his eyes. Archie pulled him into his chest for comfort and stroked through his raven hair. "How long has this been going on?" "A f-few weeks...I-I don't
w-want t-to be with h-him arch"
"I know,it's okay juggie. I'm here,I promise he won't hurt you ever again" Archie places a kiss on Jugheads head. "Do you wanna go back to mine? Missing one day of school won't hurt" "y-yeah" Archie helped Jughead up and put his hand on his waist which was quickly pushed off,since Reggie would always grab his waist and pin him down "sorry" he takes Jughead to his house and luckily mr.Andrews wasn't home. Jughead and Archie both sat on the couch "do you need anything?" He asks "no,I'm okay now" "I wished you would've told me Jug" "it's not easy when your crushes best friend is doing something like that" Archie's eyes widen "did you just call me your crush?" "No,I didn't. I did but I didn't mean in like that" he try's to explain "I am so glad you said that,now I don't have to confess" "what?" "You didn't think I liked you just as a friend right? Did you not get any of the signs" "well,I did but I thought you were just joking" "No idiot. I like you,I've liked you since we were 9" "seriously?" He asks in shock as Archie moves closer to Jughead,
looking down at his lips. Jughead put his hands on Archie's jaw and pulled him in for a kiss. He was nervous to kiss him in fear of rejection or the fear of Archie acting like Reggie but Archie didn't touch Jughead inappropriately or be rough with him. He just let Jughead be comfortable. When Jughead straddled his lap Archie held Jugheads hips,rubbing them gently.
"is this okay?" He asks slightly out of breath "yeah"
Without warning the door swings open making Jughead get off his lap "uh,dad-" "don't tell me you two skipped school just to make out" "what,no..Jughead needed somewhere quite so I took him here" "okay,well don't be doing anything inappropriate on the couch" "uhm,okay" Fred then goes upstairs without saying anything "that was...weird" Jughead laughs "god,he's so embarrassing" "don't get shy on me now Andrews" "I'm not!"
"Are we like..a thing now"
"do you wanna be a thing"
"will you be my boyfriend?" "Of course I'll be your boyfriend,took you long enough" they both smile and kiss again before getting interrupted by a knock on the door "can we not just kiss in peace!" He whines then stands up to answer the door. "Heyyyy" Kevin says "why weren't you in maths?" Veronica asks "and have you seen Jughead,I can't find him" Jughead walks up behind Archie "oh my god...were you two-?"
"No,we weren't doing anything"
"Kevin..has our ship sailed?!" She exclaims smiling
"are you two together?!" Archie looks Back at Jughead who just shrugs his shoulders "yes.." "oh my god we called it! My life is complete"
"just don't go telling everyone,please. I don't mind people knowing I just don't want to make it a big thing" "big thing? Archie we didn't even know you were gay! Of course we're gonna be exited but we won't tell anyone" Veronica assured him "And also Jughead,never just disappear from school! We thought you died!" Kevin says dramatically "I'll try" he smiles "well,we will let you get on with your very important business" "bye" Archie says rolling his eyes and closes the door. When he turns around he sees that Jughead is a blushing mess "don't go shy on me now Jughead" he laughs making Jughead blush more "shut up" he covers his face trying to hide the fact that Archie was right. He was incredibly shy. "You definitely weren't shy a few minutes ago" he teases removing Jugheads hands "Archie! Shut it,I don't know your friends that well!" He blushed even more "I think I'm having gay panic" he says making them both laugh.Sorry I haven't been updating. I'd make excuses but they'd be shitty ones so I'm not going to bother
