Warnings: fluff, Y/N and Jughead are out of high school my dudes so it's cute
A/N: I really liked this request, someone requested I do one where they are out of high school. I'm pretty sure they wanted them to have kids and such but hey, what's the rush. I made them right out of high school and I think it's adorable


     Light poured into the room through the curtains and shined on the bed, illuminating Jughead and Y/Ns faces. Jughead groaned, tightening his hold on Y/Ns waist, pulling her closer to him. She slowly opened her eyes, stretching slightly and looked around for her phone to check the time. When it was no where to be found, she relaxed back into the bed. Judging by the orangey tones of light lighting up the room, she assumed it must have been early in the morning.
"Juggie?" Y/Ns voice softly sang, trying to wake the raven haired boy next to her. He took his hand that was wrapped around her waist and slowly started running his fingers through her hair.
"Are you trying to put me back to sleep?" Y/N giggled, and Jughead opened one eye, a small smirk taking shape on his face.
"Depends, is it working?" he asked, his voice low and raspy. Y/N rolled her eyes and cupped his cheek.
"Nope. Sorry Jones." she teased, and his eyes fluttered shut once more. His hand flew from her hair back to her waist and he pulled her into him once again.
"Well you should go back to sleep." he mumbled, sleep slowly taking him away from the conscious world once again. "Or at least lay in bed with me."
"We have things we have to do today, there's no time to just lay in bed." she murmured, doing her best not to let sleep take her too. Between the cozy white sheets that were drowning her and Jughead, the lack of sleep she had gotten that night, and the warmth and closeness of Jugheads body that she adored so much, she almost fell asleep right then and there, but the responsibilities of that day were nagging her.
"Come on Juggie, let's get up." she said, sitting up and throwing the covers off them. Jughead grabbed hold of her arm and pulled her down onto the mattress again, she bounced against it with a laugh. Before she could get up and escape, he quickly climbed on top of her, and laid on her.
"Juggie! Get off of me!" she laughed, trying her best to move him.
"Not until you agree to lay in bed with me..." he said, and she sighed.
     "We can't though, trust me I wish we could." she whispered, drawing lazy circles on his back. "But you've got your interview for your new novel today-"
     "I can do it another time." Jughead interrupted, dead set on laying in bed with Y/N for the rest of the day.
     "No you can't." she chuckled. "You're a big time writer now, you've got to get used to these interviews and such. We aren't in high school anymore, our days of laying in bed, watching old movies all day every day are behind us."
     "We graduated a few months ago, I don't think we have to jump right into adulthood." he teasingly argued, lifting his head to look at Y/N.
     "Oh I definitely agree, one hundred percent." she giggled, nodding her head. "I don't think I'll ever be ready to fully jump into adulthood, all I'm saying is that we've got some responsibilities to take care of today, and then after wards we can lay in bed and watch movies all we want." she smiled up at the messy haired boy beaming down at her, and he rolled his eyes and kissed her.
     "Fine. Will you be coming to my interview?" he asked. "I mean you are a very important character in my novel, being the narrators love interest and all." he said, leaning his forehead against hers.
     "Id love to, but-" she was cut off by a kiss, and when Jughead pulled away, she was met with pleading eyes.
     "No buts, please come watch. I'd feel a lot better if you'd come, I mean you helped me through all of this. You were the only one who totally believed in me." he begged, and Y/N sighed.
     "I'll have to call Betty and Veronica and ask if I can switch our brunch plans to just normal lunch plans." she said, and Jugheads face lit up.
     "Anyways won't it be fun to see your man brag about how he solved the Jason Blossom murder case and wrote a book all at the same time." he whispered in her ear, earning a giggle from Y/N.
     "Oh definitely, and then I can swoop in and tell them that all the actual solving of the case was done by me." she joked, grabbing his face and pulling him down for another kiss.
     "So not true though," he said in between kisses, one hand on the bed next to her head to stabilize himself and the other running through her hair. She pulled away and stared lovingly up into his eyes.
     "A little true, it was like half and half." she said and he rolled his eyes. "Oh come on, you know that's true! You even wrote it in your book." she laughed.
     "Okay okay, you got me there." he said, laying back down next to her. She turned on her side so she was facing him, and she stared up at the boy she loved so much.
     "I can't believe high school is over." she whispered, and he looked down at her.
     "Yeah, its crazy. I mean, we both decided college was a no go, which means, we are done with school. We are now adults..." he trailed off, staring at the ceiling. For a few minutes, they sat in silence, thinking and enjoying each others company. "We moved out, and we are starting a new chapter of our life." he said.
     "There's no one Id rather start my new chapter with." Y/N said softly, and Jughead pulled her up so her head was laying on his chest.
     "There's no one I'd rather start with either. As long as I have you, I know that I can get through anything that life throws at me. I mean hell, look at what you've helped me with already. I was a misunderstood, bullied, homeless, damages kid, and then you came around and you did things no one else would. You loved me, you took care of me, you stood up for me, you believed in me, and now I have a published book, a book tour, a house...." he trailed off again, holding Y/N tighter. "I have a life I'm proud of, and I owe it to you." he whispered, and Y/N sat up and kissed him.
     "You've helped me too, Juggie. In more ways than you know. I love you." she said, pulling away. Jughead opened his his mouth to respond, but just then Y/Ns phone went off, making them both jump. Y/N scrambled to the edge of the bed, and reached under it patting around until she touched cold glass. She pulled it up, and realized it was just an alarm. She turned it off, and looked at the time, jumping out of bed.
     "Oh god, Juggie, you're going to be late! It's 8:30 and you're supposed to be there in an hour!" she yelled, running to the closet to look for something to wear.
     "So, we have an hour." he said, dragging himself out of bed.
     "It takes about 45 minutes to get there, plus it's downtown so we have to find parking!" She ran out of the closet with a white button up and a tie, and she threw them at him. "Get dressed." she yelled as she started back for the closet. Jughead grabbed her wrist and pulled her to him, and kissed her head.
     "Relax, if I miss this one then so be it." he smiled. "There's no need to rush, we've still got the rest of our lives."
