I sat across from Jughead in Pop's, waiting for Veronica and Archie to arrive for our usual Friday Pop's night. I sipped my milkshake quietly and Jughead typed frantically away on his old battered laptop.
My phone pinged to signify a text, making Jughead's head shoot up and his beanie slide slightly off it's usual placement.
'Sorry,' I said, hiding my giggles as I checked my phone.
From: Archie
Ronnie can't come tonight as she's ill and she's asked me and Kevin to look after her. She was going to ask you guys but she thought you too can do some stuff for the Blue and Gold. Have fun. See you tomorrow night for our date ;) - Arch xx
I smiled at his text and sent him a quick reply.
'Who was it?' Jughead asked.
'Uh, Archie,' I answered.
'What did he say?' he asked, tilting his head to the side.
'Veronica isn't feeling well and him and Kevin are with her.'
'OK,' Jug responded, scrunching up his left eye.
'Do you want to do some Blue and Gold stuff?' I asked him and he smiled.
'Whatever the lady requests,' he smiled at me, gesturing with his head at the space next to him in the booth. I got up to move seats when my phone pinged again, another text from Archie. But before I could grab it, Jughead reached for my phone.
'Is that Archie?' he asked, unlocking my phone but pausing when the previous texts came up between me and Archie.
'He-he asked you out?' Jughead asked, looking up at me like a lost puppy.
'Uh, yeah. He said not to tell you though. Something about you already having a lot on your plate,' I said and Jughead's jaw clenched.
'That son of a bitch.'
A/N
If you didn't understand then basically Betty and Jughead were at Pop's and Archie has asked out Betty even though Archie knows Jughead likes Betty. Complicated, I know.
