Believer ➵ Bughead

Chapter 18

"You got everything, lindo?" Julieta asked Jughead as they walked inside her front door.

"I think so." He replied back, chuckling.

The two had just came back from Riverdale High. They cleaned out Jug's locker together, as doing the job as a duo would be faster. Nobody really talked to him, surprisingly. In fact, no one was in the halls, and were rather outside. He just assumed it was some sort of fight, so he left once he finished cleaning everything up.

He dropped his backpack on the couch and walked to the kitchen. Julieta followed  and wrapped her arms around his waist.

"You hungry?" He asked, flinching a bit.

"Not for food." She whispered back in his ear.

His eyes widened. Where the hell did that come from? They had only been together for a week. He wasn't even used to the touching yet!

"Juliet..." He said slowly.

She scoffed and looked back at Jug.

"Jughead..." She mimicked, wrapping her arms around his neck.

He kissed her on the cheek, before removing her arms manually and going to the fridge.

She huffed impatiently.

"Come on!"

"Not right now, I'm hungry." 

He heard her walking away, up to her room.

He looked back. Once knowing that she was gone, he sighed loudly.

The girl was going to kill him, emotionally and physically. Candy had no idea what they were doing, and if she found, he's pretty sure he'd be disowned.

Digging his sweaty palms into the ice box, he grabbed the box of milk and downed it.

"What the hell am I going to do?" He spoke to himself.

Once he closed the box, he took out his phone and went back on Instagram. Flipping through the multiple posts, he noticed a picture of him and Betty. They were laying down on his car, looking out at the sunset.

For some odd reason, that picture sent him waves of nostalgia.

He remembered the day he took it. The gang had come back from the mall, and he had asked Archie to take a pic of them. But that wasn't what made him hit home. It was what Betty told him.

"And they all lived happily ever after. Right, Juggie?"

After that, it took him no time whatsoever to go to his contacts and call Betty.

But, before he could so, he had felt someone push him down and grab the phone from his hands.

"I'm not taking no for an answer, Jones." Julieta gushed before kissing him.

He  had hesitated, but just admitted defeat and let her kiss him.

Her breath smelled of bubblegum, and she wore nothing but a tank top and shorts.

She bit his lip, and Jughead opened his mouth slightly, letting her tongue roam in.

He pushed herself back and went down to kiss her neck, and she returned the favor, by slowly grabbing his belt and undoing it.

A quiet moan, which was then muffled by Jughead's hand, left the girl's mouth.

Candy was still home, she could've walked in on them any second.

He began to panic, as his belt was slowly falling down to his ankles. He didn't think he was even ready for what was to come. 

He silently prayed for a distraction so that he could rethink his options.
