I couldn't sleep, I tossed and turned, tried to count sheep, sang every lullaby I knew but I just couldn't sleep, It wasn't a new thing, I had been sleepless for a couple of days thinking about Jason's murder and more importantly a certain raven haired boy who I had been looking at for quite a while now.

I stood up from my bed and put on a black hoodie (don't be so surprised, I don't only wear pink) which I didn't zip up, over my sports bra and shorts, which I had been wearing while I tried to sleep due to the summer heat, I also put on a pair of running shoes.I climbed down from my window via a ladder, which was oh so cleverly hidden courtesy of moi, after which I carefully and quietly hid the ladder before starting my run.

It was about 1 am when I got to Pop's, I had come in to order a coffee to go (because if I couldn't sleep then why force myself to). As I waited for my order, I spotted a familiar beanie clad boy, slightly slouched over a laptop. I contemplated whether not to or to go but the heart wants what it wants.

"Hi Jughead, what are you doing here?" I asked as I sat in the booth opposite him.

"Um... Betty hi, well as you can see I am working on my book." he replied, tearing his eyes away from his laptop.

I almost face palmed myself, like seriously, "what are you doing here?" obviously I could see, I felt so stupid even though he didn't reply with sarcasm or anger. We both sat in an uncomfortable silence and after what seemed like forever, my order was finally called.

"Well Juggie, it was nice talking to you but I have to go." I said standing up.

Jughead looked at me and I suddenly felt exposed at the amount of skin I was showing and I could feel my face turn red.

"I was about leaving, let me walk you home." he finally said.

"Sure." I replied with a smile.

Since Jughead was currently staying with Archie, because his dad was on a business trip, he stopped at the Andrew's porch and bid me good night. As I was about to keep walking and go home, I realized that I didn't want to leave Jughead.

"Actually," I said making Jughead turn and look at me surprisedly, "Can I stay with you? I am not ready to go back home." I continued.

"Sure come in, Archie isn't home, he is probably with Veronica and Mr. Andrews is on a trip." he replied after a while.

I was starting to feel sleepy around 3 am and it didn't help that I was on a super comfy bed while Jughead kept typing away beside me, not looking tired at all.

"Hey Juggie, can I read your story?" I asked while trying to stifle a yawn.

"Sure." he said handing me the laptop.

"Betts, can I ask you something?" he asked while I read his book which was really good.

I raised my head to notice he was really close to me, like few centimeters away from me, I was finding it really hard to respond(I mean like who would? Especially when it was an extremely cute boy who happened to be my crush was just few centimeters away from me).

"S-sure." I said stuttering.

"Well, I like this really cute girl but I don't know if she likes me back, how can I tell if she also likes me."

I felt my heart drop when he said that but I wasn't going to let a random girl take the boy I just started liking, It was not going to be the same sad story as Archie. Gathering courage from my bad girl side, I dropped his laptop carefully.

"Well, she would do this, " I replied and leaned in and nibbled his ear, "And this,"I continued and kissed his jawline. Before I knew it, I was flat on the bed, I looked up and was met with beautiful bluish-green eyes.

" And then I would do this." Jughead said and leaned in to kiss me.

When we kissed, sparks erupted and I suddenly felt awake, it was like I had drank two full cups of coffee right there. His hand whether accidentally or intentional grazed my still exposed tummy, which made me feel flames while I played with the hem of his shirt. We both pulled out for air and after a few seconds, we were kissing again, it felt so good that I didn't want to stop. I didn't know when my hoodie got on the floor. I suddenly pulled away, the bad girl part of me still wanted to continue while the good girl part of me felt bad for the girl that Jughead liked.

"As much as I love this, I can't help but feel bad for the girl you like, what if she likes you back?" I asked.

"Well, I know she likes me." He replied.

"How do you know?" I asked.

"Well, we just kissed now." he replied.

I leaned in and gave him another kiss. Before I started to climb down.

"Betty, you know you don't have to do that? The front door is open." Jughead said.

"There is no fun in that and by the way, to be continued." I said before smiling at him and climbing down.

It wasn't until I got to my room, I realized I left my hoodie and coffee with Jughead.
