Hey everyone!

Sorry for the delay in updating, I've been so busy and I haven't had time to write a thing. Luckily this chapter was done, I just had to quickly edit it.

I only have tonight and tomorrow night to work and then I'm off so I should be able to update at least a couple of times next week.

I hope you're all good and happy bonfire night, stay safe with the fires and fireworks!

Happy reading!

Also I want to add a TW for abusive relationship, this story will most probably involve it going forward so if that's not for you please don't continue with this story.

Saturday.

The car wash was in full swing by 11am, the boys were busy washing the cars whilst the girls collected the money from the cars pulling in. There was music blasting out from Jason's car, the schools parking lot looking much different than it did through the week.

'We're going to raise so much money I don't even think the school dance will be necessary,' Betty said.

'Yeah, but we're still doing it right? I mean we've already put the word out,' Veronica said.

'Of course we are,' Betty said with a nod. 'Archie's already asked me'.

'Interesting'. Veronica looked over to Toni and Cheryl who were chatting a couple of feet away. 'Hey Toni, do you have a date for the dance?'

'What?' Toni said walking over the the blonde and dark haired girl.

'I said do you have a date to the dance?'

'Oh, I haven't really thought about it'.

'What about Sweet Pea? Is he an option?'

'For me?' Toni asked and Veronica nodded her head. 'Absolutely not. He's not my type'.

'Then what is your type?' Betty asked excited to gossip.

'I'm not really interested in anyone right now,' Toni shrugged. 'I'll probably just go as friends with Sweet and Fangs'.

Veronica nodded, but Toni saw something behind her eyes. Did she like Sweet Pea?

'Who are you going with?' Toni asked.

'Oh, no ones asked me yet. Maybe I can join you and the boys?'

'Maybe,' Toni nodded, she was definitely going to talk to Sweet Pea later.

'Are you going with Reggie Cheryl?' Veronica asked.

'Yeah, I guess'.

'You guess? Hasn't he asked you?'

'Well no, but he's my boyfriend so of course we'll go together'.

'Cheryl are you okay?'

'I'm fine. I need to use the bathroom I'll be right back'.

'She's not acting like herself,' Betty said.

'It's probably Reggie, he seems more controlling now than ever,' Veronica said. 'That girl is gorgeous she could be with someone who treats her the way she deserves'.

'Is he really that bad?' Toni asked, she knew he was an ass with her and her friends but would he really treat his girl that way?

'Oh yeah'. Veronica nodded, 'he's very jealous. I personally think he's laid hands on her before'.

'Really?' Toni asked trying to keep her anger at bay. 'Didn't you say anything?'

'She'd only deny it'.
