||| Narrator POV |||

 "Hey, guys look whose back! It's little Betty Cooper, the anorexic", it was Reggie Mantle, captain of the football team. Jughead and Archie immediately shot up out of their chairs and Betty froze, not knowing what to do "What the hell did you just call her?" Jughead spat "Oh sorry Jughead did I just insult your girlfriend" Anger was pulsing through Jug's veins "Back the hell of Reggie before I do something we both regret" Archie called back. Veronica made her way over to Betty from the other couch and helped her stand, she knew she needed to get Betty out of there before something bad happened. "And where do you think you're going" Reggie turned to the two girls, "Get away from them" Jughead growled, clearly about to snap. Betty inched away from Veronica and towards her boyfriend from behind as Archie held Reggie of, "please don't do anything that we'll regret okay?" she whispered from behind, Betty kissed the back of his neck as he grabbed her hand "Go with V, I love you" he whispered back. "Aw how cute" Reggie said nudging Archie out of the way, Betty came to Jughead's side and he stuck his arm out as a barrier, "Touch her and you're dead," Jug hissed at Reggie. She knew she had to do something before this got out of hand, Veronica ran to Archie's side as Betty stepped in front of Jughead knowing he wouldn't push her back because of her state of fragileness. She wrapped an arm around Jughead from behind as he struggled (as gently as possible) to get back in front of Betty. "Wow, finally stopped letting your boyfriend fight your battles have you Cooper?" – "Why don't you leave now, Reggie, before you regret ever waking up this morning" Betty said calmly, Jug then made to move forward but in doing so he nudged Betty making her wince as he stiffened, afraid to move knowing he could hurt her again. "Why don't you watch your attitude Cooper before I stick you right back in the hospital" Betty had to almost push Jughead back as Archie and Veronica were grabbed by Reggie's minions, "Touch her and I swear I will kill you" Jughead was getting angrier and angrier by the second, he couldn't let Betty get hurt because of him. "Well why don't we test that theory" Reggie spat back, it all went by in a flash Archie punched the guy that was holding him, causing Veronica to get thrown against the wall, while Reggie made to punch Betty but she was pushed down by her boyfriend causing Jughead to get punched in the face while betty gasped in pain as she hit the floor. At that moment the bell rang, "Well we've had our fun" Reggie called as he and the rest of his little 'gang' strolled out of the room like nothing had happened.
