No One's POV

Jordan stomps ahead of Fangs as they travel the woods around the cabin with snow covering their boots but melting soon after from the heat radiating from the sun

"Jordan wait....please I'm not that in shape man" Fangs says as he tries to keep up with his friend, the boy leans down as he tries to catch his breath

Jordan sighs and stops in her place as she too is trying to collect herself, Archie's words hit more than he or anyone knew especially given Jordan's life since she turned 10

"Sorry for the outburst Fangs...just...tired of him and his smug attitude, he so fucking entitled and bitchy....he thinks he can be this golden boy when really he's no better what everyone sees me as" Jordan says angrily as she look around at the mountain scenery

"I know J, look Archie was out of line last night and just now...but Jordan, we know what's going on...sort of" Fangs says causing Jordan to look at him confused

"What....nothing is going on" Jordan says knowing what exactly is going on but can't admit to it

"Jordan....we know Betty and Archie are into each other still....and I think you know too" Fangs says causing Jordan to sigh as she puts her hands on her waist and look at her friend defeatedly 

Meanwhile at the local mall

Veronica and Kevin excitedly look around large H&M like children in a toy store while Josie, Betty and Cheryl laugh at their best friends

"Veronica...do you think that Fangs will like these jeans, he said he needed some more" Kevin says as the girls walk over to their nervous friend

"He'll love those, and I bet you'll like them on him" Veronica teases causing Kevin to blush and roll his eyes, but grab the jeans in Fangs size nonetheless

"Girls I really need to head to Victoria secret...anyone need to as well" Veronica says and they girls and Kevin just shrug before paying for their clothes

The cousins of the bunch stand awkwardly next to each other in line for the register, they both hold clothes for their loves, Betty looks at the clothes in Cheryl's hands and frowns in confusion

"Cheryl...when did Toni like that kind of style" Betty asks as she looks the clothes in her cousin hands over

Cheryl is holding cargo pants with lots of strap as well as a band tee shirt, with a bag from hot topic that is full of things for her lover

"Toni is diverse" Is all Cheryl said, not making eye contact with Betty whatsoever, which doesn't go unnoticed by Veronica, Josie and Kevin

The friends pay for their things before heading to Victoria secret, Kevin, Josie and Veronica talk about a set that Veronica plans on getting for Archie while the cousin remain quiet around each other

"So...when did you and Toni get together" Betty asks Cheryl who sighs mentally but smiles towards her cousin convincingly

"A few weeks ago....she's really cool" Cheryl says causing Betty to raise and eyebrow, when did Cheryl ever say cool when describing someone

"That's good, I'm happy your happy Cher" Betty says and Cheryl nods before walking off towards the bras and panties with someone in mind as she looks at the red sets and green sets of lingerie

"Oh these are to die for....Betty, Jordan would go insane if you wore this" Veronica says to her best friend as she pulls out a lingerie set that is colored blue

Betty smiles and takes the set from her best friend who winks and turn to grab a black set and purple set that she has her eyes on

"Cher..did you find anything to make Toni drool for you because I found this amazing light blue set that Chuck will love"Josie says and Cheryl smirks as she holds up the steps she grabbed
