Dakota's hair ^
///////////////////////////


Dakota scroller through her phone. A earbud in her ear the other hanging off her other ear. While listing to her music. She didn't want to hear Archie and Betty's awkward conversation but at the same time she wanted to hear what was about to happen between the two.

Dakota knew that Betty likes Archie. And she knows that Archie likes Betty but only as a friend. And she had no clue why. In her mind Betty would be wonderful girlfriend for Archie or Jughead or maybe someone else out there they never met. But definitely no one else in river-dale.

Dakota heard the ending of Betty's rant "One summer can change everything"

Dakota was bitter at that quote "Sadly sometime to much"

Archie quickly looked at her. Worried it got her upset. But knew that she would just say nothing as to what got her upset.

Betty liked at her sadly. Right away regretting what she said. But knew if she asked she would be either more pissed or leave. Neither of which she wanted her to do.

The leaving part may be a little bit only because she wanted to confess her feeling for  Archie. And she knew that Archie was like a second brother to her.

All three stayed quite for minute. Not knowing what to say. Dakota feeling like she ruined everything. Which she feels like all the time. Was about to get up until Archie continued the conversation:

"Wow that's so true"

His words seems like he knew it. But Dakota quickly dismissed it as the cause being Jason's death.

"So how's working for your dad?"

Dakota quickly typed in her phone to ask Archie if his dad could give her a job. She needed one. Even more now then ever.

"It was pouring concrete everyday all day long to pass time I would start to compose these poems in my head and when I got home-"

Dakota quickly jumped at the chance to say something about Archie "But you don't even like reading poems. How could you make them?"

Archie quickly covered himself shaking his head at her "They weren't poems. They are song lyrics."

Archie took a deep breath before turning his head to the side for a second.

"And working on them made me feel like...."

Betty quickly interested in the story put her chin in between her first and set of knuckles.

"What Archie?"

Archie picked up whew he left off.

"It made me feel like I'd finally broken though something real"

Betty shook her head 'yes' as to say 'keep going'

Archie to set on music continued "about my life and what I should be trying to do with it"

Dakota looked at him before taking a deep breath thinking what should I do with my life?

Archie smiled before tapping his hand in the table
"Music  starting this year. Tomorrow"

Betty happy for her friend congratulated him"amazing"

"Would you ask Ms.Grundy to tutor you? What about football can you do both?"

"I'm not sure. I'll try out"

Betty quickly asked "Well have you told your dad?"

"No"

Dakota raised from her seat "OK so now that it seems Archie is in an interrogation, I'm going....god knows where"

Archie and Betty laughed a little. As Betty got up letting Dakota leave.

"Oh and Dakota you two are the only people I told so....just don't tell anyone yet."

Dakota shook her head smiling already knowing what to say

"You got it Troy Bolton or do you prefer Justin ginger lake?"She smirked before walking away

She smirked before walking away

Archie shook his head,smiling.

Dakota turned around her silvery hair moving at the fast movement. As Dakota approaches the door she turns to see them still talking.

Dakota opens the door to leave only for a raven haired girl to walk in. Dakota slightly moved out of the way. Eyes following her I gotta keep an eye on her.

The girl stopped walking immediately turning around.

"I'm sorry but I just got here and if you could-"

Dakota stuck her hands in her pocket.

"I would go with a chocolate milkshake. There the best, unless you like strawberry. You should also taste either his pie or cheeseburgers and the onion rings "

"I'm Veronica"

The raven haired girl raised her hand at the silver haired one.

Dakota tongue quickly swept over her lips before taking her hand out of her pocket and shaking Veronica's hand.

"Dakota"

They let go off the hand shake. Dakota let her hand fall back to her side but Veronica raised her hand up more,pointing to the girl's hair "I like your hair"

Veronica turned the other way,walking to find a table. Dakota tilted her head for second saying "Maybe she not as bad as I thought"

Dakota looked over to Archie's table to see he was already looking her way. But his eyes kept shifting from Veronica to her.

Dakota looked at Betty seeing her look down poor Betty. Archie already as his eyes on Veronica.

Archie's eyes flew back to Dakota,as she walked out the door. His eyes kept following her until he couldn't see her anymore.

Betty looked out the window seeing Dakota. She wasn't jealous of the way Archie looked at he because he already said that Dakota was like a sister to him. And she knows Archie is like a brother to Dakota. So all she had to worry about was how Archie was looking at the new girl.
