"god i'm so nervous". you mutter pulling on your fingers as you wait in the green room with your boyfriend cole and co-star kj. we were about to endure a joint interview and it was your first lot of press you've done for riverdale.
but it wasn't that factor that made you nervous, it was that people were becoming more and more aware of your romantic relationship with cole.
you'd been able to keep it under wraps for the whole two years you've been dating but now that you were both sharing the small screen people had caught on.
so you had to control yourselves whenever you were out. refraining yourselves from snap chatting each other or posting photos all over your instagrams.
you had to be strictly platonic. you didn't need any sort of bad press if you two were to break up. so for now you weren't a couple, you were just a couple of besties.
or atleast that's what you thought. you thought were pulling it off. but more and more accounts for your 'ship name' with cole had popped up on both twitter and instagram and not to mention the constant questions when meeting fans in the flesh.
especially when they caught you out mid-date. when you two had to coyly pretend that you were waiting on other friends to excuse the fact that you were out together without the rest of the cast.
and to be quite frank you were getting sick of all the pretending and running around. sometimes you just wanted kiss your boyfriend or hold his hand whilst you walked down the streets.
not that you really had the opportunity to take a leisurely stroll down the road, being famous disney stars and all.
"you'll be fine", cole whispers walking toward you making sure no one was staring at the two of you. he placed a soft hand on your shoulder, instantly filling you with comfort.
"just breathe okay? if they ask don't say yes but don't say no, yeah? that way we aren't lying or avoiding the question" you nod smiling to the boy as a young women calls you over to the interview room.
the three of you file in, sitting down on a huge plush couch, each boy on either side of you as the interviewer sits in her own seperate lounge chair.
the interviewer starts her intro off strong turning toward the three of you. "kj apa as archie andrews, y/n l/n as c/n c/l/n and cole sprouse as jughead jones on the cw's riverdale!"
the three of you all smile greeting the interviewer, and the camera crew, as you settle into the interview, talking about the upcoming season and possible plot.
you were too busy worrying to even pay attention to half the stuff that was spewing from the ladies mouth, that you barely noticed her turn to you and begin to engage in conversation until kj smoothly nudged you.
