CHAPTER TWENTY-NINE
"She's joking right?"

"I hope you guys haven't made my daughter a polygamist," Alice Cooper asked Jughead and Marley. Gina agreed to helping them pick up FP but oddly enough Alice volunteered to come too.

"No, uh. But can I ask a quick question, why are you here? I don't recall you and my aunt ever being friends," Marley asked and Alice rolled her eyes before shrugging.

"Gina is a friend, and we just want to make sure FP and his offspring, don't inspire you and Betty to join the Serpents," Alice said and Jughead rolled his eyes.

"And that's the only reason you're here? And Aunt Gina since when was she your friend?" Marley asked her aunt and Gina sighed before looking at Alice.

"Now, Marley. Alice has always been to me what Cheryl is to you. Somewhat friends. Even more so now, since she got me a interview at Carson college," Gina said and Alice nodded before looking at Marley.

"Besides. We were Serpent buddies. Your aunt used to be fun," Alice said and Gina glared at her and before Marley could question her further they pulled up outside the jail. Jughead quickly got out of the car, Marley following behind him.

Alice and Gina waited next to the car and Marley and Jughead waited by the gate. After a few minutes FP was escorted out of the prison and Marley smiled Jughead grinned as he hugged his dad.

"Hello, Marley," FP greeted her once he pulled away from Jughead and Marley smiled.

"Hi, Mr Jones," Marley said politely and FP turned to look at Gina and Alice.

"Alice, Gina," FP said acknowledging them and Gina nodded at him and Alice smirked.

"Is it true what they say about men, who have just been released from prison, FP?" Alice asked and FP shook his head.

"What do they say?" FP asked and Alice smirked before crossing her arms over her chest and Jughead wrapped his arm around Marley.

"That they're incredibly sexually frustrated," Alice said before pushing herself off the car and walking towards the passenger seat. Gina playfully rolled her eyes before getting into the car and FP chuckled before doing the same.

"Wow," Jughead said and Marley laughed before getting into the car, next to FP because Jughead likes having the window seat and Jughead slid in next to her.

"You gonna teach me how to flirt like that Mrs Cooper?" Marley asked with a smile and Alice just smirked and Jughead playfully rolled his eyes at his girlfriend. FP looked at Gina as she drove.

"Still giving me the silent treatment, Gigi?" FP asked Gina and Gina just rolled her eyes and FP chuckled.

"You and I both know that never lasts long," FP said and Gina glanced at him through the rearview mirror.

Marley, Jughead, FP and Gina were sitting in a booth at Pop's. Alice told Gina to drop her home.

Gina stirred her coffee with a spoon and FP just watched her before raising an eyebrow and Jughead and Marley looked at each other in confusion.

"Gigi," FP said and Gina frowned before looking up at him.

"Don't call me that," Gina said and FP smirked and Gina rolled her eyes.

"So, you're done being childish? You going to tell me what's been going on in this town?" FP asked and Gina sipped her coffee.
