Archie pov
I just realized I have lost my best friend and probably the love of my life. I started thinking of these feelings while I lay on the bed beside Veronica. I loved Veronica I do but not the way I love Betty Cooper , she's amazing cares about the community wants to save everyone she reminds me of supergirl I smile thinking to myself. I check for the time it's only 4am , I deceide to slip away without her hearing me. I manage to get out without waking her I slowly close her door and start to head for the main door just as I'm about to open it mr lodge pulls me back
"Where do you think your going archie?
""I have to head home sir before my dad catches that I'm not at home
"You can't just make love to my daughter then decide to leave so quickly
"Mr lodge we weren't
"Don't lie to me archie I wouldn't advise that
"Sorry sir
"Stay for breakfast, take a shower I'm sure that I have change of clothes for you and walk her to school like you usually do with Betty
"......
"I'll take that as a yes
Betty Pov
My alarm clock went off I couldn't stop thinking about last night I can't believe archie I'm his best friend he could tell me what's going on
I got changed in clothes then tied my hair up in my ponytail and looked in the mirror wondering why archie did what he did there has to be a logical explanation. My mom enters
"Morning dear
"Mom what are you doing remember before coming into my room you knock?
"Look I'm sorry Elizabeth for what that red headed Andrews did to you I knew that he was bad for you but you still didn't listen but Betty you've seen his true colors now he's hurt you twice now don't let there be a third
"I understand mom I'm ready to leave Archie behind and focus on my school work
Few minutes later I'm at Archie's I ring the doorbell to wait for someone to answer and it's Mr. Andrews
"Mr Andrews hi is Archie still here I didn't want to walk to school without him
"I'm sorry Betty but he hasn't returned home since Veronica's last night
"Veronica?
"Yea he said he was in a rush and that's the last I had heard from him
"So he spent the night there?
"Looks like it do you want me to tell him you stopped by?
"No I'll see him at school thanks Mr. Andrews
"Bye Betty and hey for what it's worth there's gotta be a reason for all this cause I know how much you make him happy
"Yeah it better be a good one too
I walk off to school now when I reach Riverdale High I spot Kevin and go up to him
"Hey kev
"Betty oh my god! Tell me everything about your date with Archie was it everything you imagined as your first date with him
"Not exactly....
I tell him everything
"I'm so sorry Betty he honestly doesn't know what he's loosing
We see Veronica and Archie coming into the school together holding hands Archie kissed her then started to walk up to me and Kevin, I shut Kevin's locker and tell him it's time to go before arch catches up to us or me or whatever.
"Betty wait
I hear Archie but I ignore him and go to biology class. Unlucky of me we are in all of the same classes so it was gonna be hard to avoid him
Mr Hanks our biology teacher paired us up thank god I wasn't put with Archie but with Cheryl and juggie
Archie was with Kevin. We had to dissect a frog eww
Archie pov
"How could you archie!?
Kevin says while digging the scalpel into the frog
"I mean you did it again you broke her heart just when I thought you guys were endgame
"Kevin it's complicated ok
"Then uncomplicateit you love her right
"No
".....
"I'm in love with her Kevin ever since the second grade I was just too blind to see it
"Then work things out I mean why did you do it
"I wanna explain it to her can you just tell her to meet me at pops after school
"She won't come
"Then say it's you
Kevin agreed thank god, next was football practice I was distracted on the field all day
"Come in Andrews where's your head today
"Sorry coach
"Whatever it is make sure you sort it out remember the next game we have there will be college reps out there
Just like in my dream
"As a matter of fact I'm gonna sort it out after school today
"This is about Cooper isn't it
Coach says smiling
"Maybe
Back at the locker room I was changing as fast as I could so I could meet up with Betty just as I'm about to put my leatherman jacket on I'm called out to the office what could this be now?
I go inside Weatherbee office and spot mr lodge
"Archie mr lodge here requested for you specifically so I'll leave you to it mr lodge
"What can I do for you mr lodge
"You and Veronica to pops now
"Oh but I was just about to meet bet......
"Archie have I not made myself clear you just revealed her location to me so I could easily tell my men to march over to pops and make her disappear
"Ok pops it is
Betty Pov
The door to pops the bell rings I check for Kevin but it's not him it's just Archie and Veronica I text Kevin that I'm leaving cause I can't be in the same room as him anymore archie heads over to the bathroom before he does we make eye contact then it breaks and I decide to leave and greet Veronica before I leave
"Hey v
"Betty hey do you wanna join us
"Emmm no but just tell Archie hi
"Okay bye
