Betty and Jughead, Veronica and Archie, and Josie and Reggie all sit on stage together to answer questions about their administration plans for Riverdale High.
"Just a quick reminder, that this school hall is a PTA sponsored event." Mrs.Cooper says. Sweet Pea stands up next to me and she notices him. "Oh, looks like we have our first question."
"Yeah, no offence to the uh, current administration, but it doesn't feel like anyone's looking out for the kids who are being bussed in from the Southside. Is that gonna change?" He asks.
"Absolutely, Sweet Pea, that's our priority. And no one should feel marginalized or excluded here." Jughead says and Sweet Pea and Fangs roll their eyes.
"Jughead and I will be representing all students, North and Southside alike." Betty says.
"Next question?" Mrs.Cooper says quickly. Sweet Pea sits back down and I put a hand on his knee. "Yes, Midge?"
"My question is for Archie and Veronica. Rumor has it that your parents will be on opposite sides of the Mayoral election. Won't that negatively affect your working relationship?" She asks.
"Archie and I adhere to the old maxim that 'politics are never discussed' at the dinner or cafeteria table." Veronica answers and the crowd laughs.
"Veronica and I are on the same page about everything, including her family's plans for a prison on the Southside." Archie adds.
I roll my eyes and some of the Southside students throw out a few boos.
"In the meantime, however, we're committed to improving the quality of life here at Riverdale High, which means more extracurriculars-"
Josie cuts her off, "Reggie and I agree. Except add, the fact that we can and will deliver results."
"And we're chill, unlike these guys." Reggie says and the crowd laughs.

Sweet Pea and I walk out of the auditorium after the debate and I let out a big yawn.
"You okay? You've been really tired these past few days." He asks and slings an arm around my shoulder.
"I haven't been getting much sleep. I love Betty, I really do and it's great to have another girl in the house but I can't share a bed with her anymore. She never stops moving in her sleep. And I swear if I see another blonde hair in the shower I'm gonna scream." I say.
Sweet Pea chuckles and pulls me into his chest, "Maybe you should sleep in my bed then."
"Yeah, like I'd get any sleep there either." I tease.
Fangs runs up to us,"Hey, we're gonna hit up the Wyrm, you guys coming?"
"I really gotta catch up on some homework. Go, I'll see you tomorrow." I say and kiss Sweet Pea quickly before walking off to find my Dad.
