Part 19 - Goodbye

Song for the chapter : Bone + Tissue by Gallant

B E T T Y -

I wake up in a room I've never seen before. Beside me, Veronica is sound asleep. But the only thing I could really focus on was my excruciatingly painful hangover. I definitely drank way too much last night.

I carefully sit up in the bed, trying not to wake V up. I grab my phone off of the nearby nightstand, and scroll through my notifications. One particular notification struck my eye, a text from Archie. My eyes were wide as I read the text.

Archie : had fun last night xo

Oh god, oh no. What did I do? I run my hands through my hair anxiously.

Veronica turns toward me groggily, saying "Mmm you're up"

"PLEASE TELL ME I DIDN'T SLEEP WITH ARCHIE" I shouted.

"Jesus, Betty it's 9 AM and there are other people in this house. You need to shut up" She responded angrily.

"Fine sorry. Please tell me I didn't sleep with Archie" I whisper shouted.

Veronica groaned.

"You didn't sleep with Archie"

"Then why did he-"

"He was probably just trying to get inside your head, you know, mess with ya a little?" She said cutting me off.

I nodded and sighed a sigh of relief.

"But uh, Betty?" She said nervously.

"Yeah?" I asked.

"We kissed...A few times"

Shit, shit, shit.

I have a boyfriend, he'll never trust me after he hears about this. I shouldn't have gone to that stupid party.

"Betty? Earth to Betty?" Veronica said tapping my shoulder.

"I-I have to go" I said getting up and running out of the room.

"Wait Betty! We should talk about this" She yelled.

I hurried out of the house, and drove off in the car. I'm sure Veronica can find another ride.

I really fucked up, I hope I can fix this. I don't want to lose Jughead. He's the perfect guy for me.

I pulled up to Jughead's house and anxiously knocked on the door.

"Betty, hey I wasn't expecting you" he said and I instantly wrapped my arms around him.

"I'm so sorry" I cried into his shoulder.

"What? What're you taking about?" He chuckled nervously.

I finally let go of him.

"I-I got drunk and did something, bad"

"What did you do?" He said furrowing his eyebrows.

"I kissed Veronica" I admitted biting my lip.
