"This is disgusting," Betty said scrunching up her nose at the taste of vodka while pushing the cup away from her and Owen rolled his eyes.

"Ignore the taste. It will start to taste like water after a while," Owen said pushing the cup towards her and Betty rolled her eyes before quickly downing the drink and Owen cheered.

"Atta girl Betts," Owen said and Betty hiccuped before rolling her eyes.

"I still can't believe you done this, for me ," Betty said looking at the campsite and Owen rolled his eyes.

"Yeah, me neither. I did it for Veronica but she declined, then I asked Cheryl and she said no. You're my third choice," Owen joked and Betty frowned before nudging him.

"I'm always someone's third or second choice," Betty said and Owen shook his head before scooting closer to her.

"I was joking, Betty. If Veronica was my first choice do you really think I would be here camping, you think she would've walked down her in her Jimmy Choos? If Cheryl was my second choice do you really think we would be eating the meat lovers special pizza? Isn't she ,like, on a all carbs diet?" Owen said and Betty chuckled.

"She isn't Regina George. She's a vegan," Betty said and Owen shrugged not giving a shit.

"My point is. I planned this for you, Coops. I remember when you used to be super outdoorsy. You were the only girl on the boy scouts team, how you managed to get in is beyond me but you did it, Betts. Besides, you haven't really had it easy have you? Your sister gets checked into an asylum, her unborn babies belong to her cousin. Archie wasn't interested, Jughead wasn't interested, you deal with Alice Cooper on a daily-" Owen said but stopped when Betty nudged him.

"Don't disrespect my mother." Betty said defensively and Owen just shrugged.

"You have to admit, she's a little bit crazy," Owen said and Betty sighed before nodding in agreement.

"Okay, Pops. I'll see you tomorrow, good luck with the night shift," River said as she clocked out and Pop Tate just smiled at her.

"Try not to be late tomorrow," Pop Tate said and River shrugged.

"I'll try my hardest, but I'll probably still be late," River said and Pop laughed. River smiled at him before waving goodbye to Archie and Jughead who were sitting in a booth before leaving Pop's.

She walked to her car and saw Veronica standing besides her car wearing her signature black cape and River couldn't help but smile.

"How long have you been waiting?" River asked her and Veronica shrugged.
