" We all got those eviction notices but I swear to you no one is going anywhere!— but the heat has been on us since Pickens day and they are using that damn statue as an excuse to turn it up." FP announces throughout the bar, causing many to bicker and cheer.

As I walk passed the crowd and over to my friends, I then watch Sweets grab my hand and pull me into his arms causing me to look up in his chocolate eyes and smile.

"But if we're going to fix this then I gotta ask, is anyone in this room responsible for cutting off Pickens head? " FP continues to announce throughout the bar, until Tall boy interrupts.

" Why don't you ask your son what he has to say?" Tall boy asks FP clearly pissed off about the young Jones boy.
" What is your problem with me Tallboy?" Jughead asks, clearly getting hot headed from the older mans presence.
" You wrote the article that started this mess! —You and your posse via the opening shot at Pickens day." Tall boy slays back at us, causing all of us to stand up straight and glare at the man.

" It was a peaceful protest!" Toni yelled at the man defending her and the whole protest.
" —Which accomplished nothing!" Tall boy interrupts her mid sentence from his demonic yelling.
" I'm supposed to say that you and your boyfriend didn't go back that night with a ladder and hacksaw." Tall boy adds causing Jughead to get up in his face, and us walking up behind him, backing Jughead up.
" We didn't do it!" Jughead tells the man as he poked his chest.

"Hell Tallboy, your the tallest guy in this room you wouldn't even need a ladder!" I point out as Tall boy stare down at me, while Jughead looks up at him and back at me as if I solved something.

" Hey! The last thing we need is to turn on each other! We will find a way out of this!" FP announces as he eyes down Jughead and I.

After the whole incident with Tallboy at the bar, Sweets was trying to keep me busy with a pool game while chatting about Basketball. I appreciated it, but nothing was going to help if I stayed here, especially when Tallboy was staring me down the whole time.

So after the game of pool, I texted Betty about hanging out at her place, and when she agreed I zoomed right over.

As I pulled my car up in the driveway, she was just getting out of her own car.

" You look like you want to tear your hair out of your skull." She comments as I locked my car causing me to chuckle a bit under my breathe.
" You could say that." I say as she smiles and open up her front door.
" Well spill the tea, cause I got time."She tells me causing us both to laugh until a random kid walks down her stairs.

" Oh, who are you? Where's Chick?" Betty asks in a nice tone.
" I'm Ben, Chic will be right down. See yah." He says awkwardly before walking out of the house. As we are about to question one another, Choc walks down in a blue robe, with a glass jug of milk.

I don't know how some could just drink milk like that, I found it always disgusting. And it's not because I'm lactose either.

" Hey what's going on? I thought you had a job interview today?" Betty asks her brother.
" I did that was Ben, he works concessions at the Bijou. I'm pretty sure I got the job. —And Hey Danny, finally you show up." He answer to Betty before smiling over at me, and giving me a side hug.
" Uh yeah, I've been really busy lately. I'm glad your adjusting to everything." I say before smiling back at Chic.
" Dan, could you put these groceries in the fridge?" Betty asks me, as I nod and gladly take the bags before walking in their kitchen.

As I set the condiments and frozen food in the correct place, I could hear the two chatting but I try to ignore half because listening into others conversations is rude.

As I close the fridge, I hear the siblings walk into the kitchen. As I turn, I see Betty take a seat on the stool and sigh while Chic continues to drink his milk while leaning on the counter.

" So what's up Danny?" Betty asks with a small smile playing on her lips.
" Yeah, what's been keeping you so busy from visiting." Chic asks smirking while taking another sip of his milk.
" Well There's been Serpent drama, and dad drama." I say as Betty raises her eyebrows surprised to hear about the Serpents.
" I thought we were the only ones with daddy issues." Chic comments causing me to smile a bit but it soon falls.

" Are the Serpents alright?" Betty asks as I shrug my shoulder a bit.
" Kinda; I'm sure Jughead will tell you more about it, he's running out ideas." I tell the girl as a phone goes off in the living room, causing her to get up to answer, leaving Chic and I in the kitchen.

It was awkward for a minute, so I pulled out my phone noticing a text from Sweets.

From: Sweet Pea😍
You okay?

" I never got to ask, are you currently courting? —In a relationship?" I heard Chic ask as I look up and see him staring a me almost curious what my answer would be.
" Uh, well. It's complicated." I say chuckling a bit as I look down at my phone before sliding it back into my back pocket.
" How So?" He asks, clearly not caring about how long we known each other.
" Well, we both like each other but—"
" You aren't in love with the guy." He answers for me as I nod.

" Well I'm unsure and he hasn't said it either." I say as he nods and walks over to me, causing me to get goosebumps all over, as he gets closer.
" Id say dump him, hook up with other people, and if you both feel like nothings working out with those people then start the relationship." He tells me causing me to furrow my eyebrows in confusion.

"Well what if we don't get back together? I can't risk that." I say not liking the idea of sharing him around these girls in Riverdale. I watch Chic shrug and sigh out before leaning in beside my ear.
" Love is about taking risks." He whispers before walking passed me causing my hairs to stand up on my body. Right as he opens the fridge to search for some food, Betty then walks back in.

What the hell just happened?
