The serpents returned to the white wrym after prom. Sweet Pea was running the bar. Fangs was playing pool against a young serpent. Besides them, no one else was in the bar.
"Soooo, how was Prom?" He got them all whiskeys.
"Archie almost killed a guy who called us offensive slurs." Toni chugged the entire glass the second she finished talking.
"Holy shit. Did he get expelled?" Sweet Pea tried not to smile. He just had to admire that northsider's fire.
"I'm going to bed." Jughead yawned. Cheryl waited until he was out of earshot.
"Can you two keep a secret?" She asked.
"Of course" Sweet Pea and Toni said at the exact same time. Toni took her hand and Cheryl squeezed it.
"Jason's death was probably a suicide." Their was an awkward silence in the room. "But FP and some other serpents were hired to get him to that point."
"Oh my god." Toni pulled Cheryl into a hug. When Cheryl let go, Toni reached for the entire whiskey bottle.
"That can't be true." Sweet Pea stared at her in disbelief.
"It is. I got FP to confess to it." Cheryl promised. Sweet Pea's eyes grew wide.
"What are you going to do?" Toni asked. She filled her glass up to the tippy top.
"I don't know yet. He ruined my life, though." Cheryl glanced around the bar. "I'm going to ruin his."
