Torn (Sweet Pea) [COMPLETED] {1}

Chapter 6

"I need to go meet Ron at Archie's house." "Is that smart? He just pulled a gun on you Em." Sweet Pea said. "I'm okay, he can't do anything with Ron there." He leaned down to kiss me and I left the two boys.

Veronica and I got to Archie's house. I sat on the arm of the chair closet to the door. Reggie came in with the Bulldogs and pizza. He sat down on the chair I was sitting on. We all ate our pizza and had fun. I heard some engines outside. Ronnie and I stood up. "I got this Ron." I told her. I walked outside and shut the door behind me. "The hell are you doing here?" "We did think you'd be here." "I TOLD YOU I WOULD BE HERE." "Emerald is everything okay?" Ron asked though the door. "Yes Ron!" "Open the door Em." "No Sweet Pea." He walked forward and put his hand on my sides. "Dammit." I said softly. "Open the door..." I slowly let go of the knob and Sweet Pea reached behind me and opened the door, "Don't worry Em."

Sweet Pea opened the door and Archie and Veronica looked at the Serpents. "Don't think for a second Andrews that you could stick a gun in Emerald's face and not expect us to have her back." I looked down as Ronnie looked at Archie. "You have Crap timing bro." Reggie said. "A fight is what we'll do." Archie said. Ronnie grabbed my arm and pulled me inside.

The guys went off to the boarder of Riverdale. "He pulled a gun on you?" She asked. "Ron.. yes he did but it was okay." "Okay!?" "What if he shot you?!" "That's exactly what Sweet Pea said." I whispered to myself. "He was there?!" "Yeah...?" "And he didn't do anything?!" "Ron, I was kind of in a mood." "I don't care! If you spend time with him and expect me to keep it a secret from mom and dad I need to make sure he protects you. Even if you're in a mood." "I'm sorry Ron." She sighed, "It's okay." We both hugged. "You should go." "What?" "Go, make sure those boys don't kill each other." "What about you?" "I need to get something." I nodded at Veronica and I left Archie's house.

I got to the border and I saw Archie on the floor and Sweet Pea licking him in the stomach. I winched for Archie and ran down there. I stood right in front of Sweet Pea. "Hey! Cut it out!" "What are you doing here Em?" "Making sure you don't kill anyone!" Everyone stopped fighting. "Em." "Don't." I turned around and looked at Archie. I helped him up and turned back around. "What the hell?!" I shouted at him. "Em, he pulled a gun on you!" "I clearly handled it!" "What were you even doing with them Em?" Reggie asked. "Yeah Em, What were you doing with them?" Archie asked. "Never thought a Lodge could hangout with Serpents." Reggie said again. "Yeah Em and threatening me?" Archie asked. "Excuse me?! Who pulled a freaking gun on me?!" I shouted at him. "And who tagged the Southside? Oh that's right, YOU, Archie, YOU." Sweet Pea grabbed my arm, "Hey probably best not to do this now.." he whispered to me. "I'm fine Sweet Pea.." I turned around to Archie and the Bulldogs. "You don't speak for the Bulldogs Lodge." Reggie said walking forward to Archie. I turned around, "No Reggie I don't speak for the Bulldogs." "What're you doing Em..?" Sweet Pea whispered to me. "Trust me." I whispered back. I leaned in closer and kissed Sweet Pea. I opened my eyes slightly and reached down into his pocket to take his pocket knife, I put it in my pocket. He put his hands on my waist and kissed back.

I could feel all the Bulldogs in utter shock. Along with some of the Serpents. We both pulled away and I looked at the Bulldogs. "No Reggie, Archie, I don't speak for the Bulldogs because.... God we're so privileged, and... and we always demonize the Southside like they aren't one of us. I've listened to Archie for years going on about the Southside and the Serpents. And I'm sick of it. All of you. I'm sick of it because.." "Em don't." Sweet Pea said. "Because I'm not-" Veronica shot a gun into the air and looked at all of us. "Ron.." Sweet Pea grabbed my hand and lead me to his motorcycle. I looked back, "Drive." I whispered to him. He started the motorcycle and drove off with the rest of the Serpents.
