Jughead and I danced and fooled around the whole time. We danced a couple times and we sat down and talked and then the topic of dances came to talk.

"Dances aren't my thing." He said looking at me.

"But they are quite fun when you go with someone that's nice." He complimented.

"Yeah I hate dances. There just not as interesting as reading or writing. Bet you agree?" He nodded. Soon Cheryl started her speech so we both turned our attention to her.

"Good evening friends. Are you all having a good time?" She spoke into the mic

People cheered and clapped.

"As honerary chair person and de facto queen of tonights semi-formal...it is my great plesure to introduce this evenings main entertainment. To know them is to be obsessesd with them. They usually perform there own material, tonight they're making an exception...and debuting a cover of a song my parents listend to...the night Jason and I were conceived. This ones for you JJ. I give you Josie and the Pussy Cats."

People cheered. Jughead looked at me.

"Wanna dance?" He asked raising a brow and extending his hand.

"Sure." I answered and took his hand.

He lead me to the dance floor.

We danced to the infamous band.

"This is my first good dance." I said.

"It's not bad. Better then the other ones." He smiled.

The dance ended, Jughead and I headed to Pops. We entered he went to a booth and I went to the bathroom to change into sweatpants and a t-shirt, I put my dress in a bag. I went back to the booth and sat beside him. He was drinking a coffee and typing. I sat there and watched. He looked at me and raised a brow.

"Sorry if I'm invading." He shakes his head and continues typing. I look at the time, Midnight, my parents aren't ones to worry I told them I'd be home later. Archie walked in looking for something. I looked at Jughead. We both looked at Archie. He walked over to Pops then us.

"Can I sit?" He asked. Jughead looked at me then Archie.

"If you want."

"What are you working on?"

"My novel."

I decided to keep quiet and just listen in.

"Its about this summer, and Jason Blossom."

"Seventeen years old and how will he be remembered? As captain of the water polo team?"

"-The Aquaholics? Considering how he died, probably not."

"No what I mean is...was he doing everything he was supposed to do? Everything he wanted.I mean,did he even know what that was?"

I looked at the time again.

"I gotta go see you guys at school?"

"Sure." Jughead said.

"See you Y/N."

I got up and walked out with my bag on my (prominent(right or left)) arm. I made my way home. I got home all the lights were on. I walked in and my dad was on the couch. He turned to me and raised a brow. My mom must've not told him I'd be back later.

"Where have you been?"

"The dance then Jughead and I went to Pops."

"Oh and did you talk to your mother or I before doing thing?"

"Yes I called mom. Did she not tell you?"

"No. Whatever." He walked over and gave me a hug.

"Go to bed sweetpea you got school tomorrow."

"Alright, goodnight Dad." I said. Then walked upstairs to my room. I went over to my bed and continued reading (favorite book). As I was reading I heard my door creek open, I looked up and saw Hannah my little sister, she looked sad. I gesture for her to come lay down.

"More nightmares?" I whisper.

She nodded in response.

"You can stay in here tonight."

She nodded again before snuggling into my covers. She fell asleep quickly, I drew on her shoulder and soon enough I fell asleep.

I woke up to see Hannah still sleeping. I got up trying and climbed over her, I picked her up bridle style and brought her to her room. I put her in her bed and tucked her in. I walked downstairs and got some toast and put it in the toaster. As I waited for it to finish I got a text from Jughead.

Hey

Hey Jug, Whats up??

Nothing much. What are you doing tonight?

Nothing, you?

Going to the movies with you.

I have no choice?

Nope. See you at 7.

See you.

That was the end of the conversation as I was thinking about it the sound of the toast going off went, I walked over and put the toast on a plate. I put butter and (favorite flavor) jam on it. I brought the plate upstairs and ate it while I read my book. As I was reading my sister came back in. She looked at the other piece of toast I had. I looked at it then at her.

"If you want it you can have it."

"Thanks Y/N. What are you doing?"

"Just reading and thinking."

"About?"

"This guy....He texted saying we're going to the movies, I don't know if its a date or just a friend thing."

"Is this the same guy who took you to the dance?"

"Yeah."

"He likes you...I think."

I looked at Hannah and smiled.

"Your older then Mom and Dad let on you know."

She smiled and gave me a hug. She left my room going to do God know's what. I read a few more chapters before getting up and getting dressed.
I looked at the time and went to get dressed.
I got dressed and went to school. Everyone had these... Sad, upset, angry, horrifed looks on there faces.
I see Betty and walk over to her.
"Whats going on? Are you okey?" I asked her. Her cheeks were stained with dry tears.
"I confessed to Archie. He doesn't like me back and him and Veronica.... Don't worry about me." She smiled them continued.
"Jason was found with a bullet in his head in the river last night by Moose and Kevin."
My eyes widened. Poor Kev' must be tramatized.
I nodded and we continued on with our day.
