My life in Riverdale

Do I have a crush on Archie Andrews?

Pipers p.o.v

I must admit, I am so grateful that Archie had tried to give me that money, but one though had stuck in my head that night, where did he get the money from? He said that he got it from a friend and he was going to pay him back but no teenager is that rich nore would give that sort of money away to some stranger.

I couldn't sleep that night, maybe it was because I was sleeping on the floor, or because I was afraid of going to school, maybe the thought was still in my mind about Archie and the money. He was so sweet, and he's cute too, oh my goodness Piper, are you crushing on him? Nah I'm not, I need to get over this, but I need to figure out where he got that money.....

Several texts came through from Archie that night, and I must admit that I didn't text back, I just left him on seen. I felt bad, what if he turns out to be a great friend and I'm the bitch who ignored him.... Archie- Hey Piper, can we talk? I need to ask you something.....
Archie- Piper please I know your reading these, please answer me.
Archie- okay, I'll leave you alone, I hope you have a good day at school tomorrow, and make lots of friends....

Should I text him back? Yeah I must.... To Archie- Hey Archie, sorry I haven't been in the right mindset lately, moving tough and not having furniture is rough too...
And only a few minutes later, Archie- go to your window. I went to the window to see a topless Archie, I must admit he's cute but I hardly know him, he opened his window followed by me, "are you okay?" He asked with a soft voice, "umm yeah, I could be better but I'm fine..." I lied, tears started to appear but I held them back. "I know your not fine Piper, is it school? Or moving? This whole money situation?" I couldn't hold it in anymore.

"Everything," I said letting the tears flow, when I opened my eyes his window was still open but he wasn't there, 'knock knock' "Piper it's me, let me in..." I opened the door, he didn't put on a shirt but he rushed over just because I was hurt, he doesn't know me, why does he do this? "Piper tell me what's wrong,"

I turned and say beneath my window, he shut the door behind him and sat with me. "What's wrong?"
"I have no friends, I'm scared to go to school tomorrow, I don't have money for anything, I don't have furniture, food... is there anything that's okay at he moment?"
"For the record, I'm here for you..."
"Thanks Archie, but I know your only my friend because you feel bad for me."

"If you think that then your not as smart as I though you were, if I didn't want to be your friend would I have tried to give you thirty thousand dollars? Or have rushed over here with no shirt to make sure you were okay?"
"I guess not," he pulled me into a tight hug, and it wasn't awkward, it was comfortable, warm, his cologne smelt incredible, I cried into his chest for what seemed like hours, but he didn't care.... Do I like Archie Andrews?
