After the couple's moment at Pop's, they head to Reggie's house. Ivy had been quiet the whole way home. She couldn't get the tall serpent off her mind. Sweet pea. He's named after my favorite flower. My name is Ivy. Like that plant. That's kinda- "Babe?" Reggie says, snapping Ivy out of her thoughts. "Huh?" "You alright? You seem out of it. Was it those serpents? I swear I will fuck them up if they torment you again." He says in all seriousness. "No, no honey I'm okay. Just sad I guess."
Reggie places his right hand on her left thigh in comfort. "I miss my dad Reg, & I hate being alone. Do you think you can stay the night tonight?" Ivy asks. "Of course. You know my parents won't care. They love you so much." He says with a smile. Ivy feels the heat rise to her cheeks. They pull up to Reggie's house & he goes into the house. No more than ten minutes later her exits the house with a bag of clothes. Reggie gets in the car & the couple head back to Ivy's house.
When they get in, they are greeted by Ivy's two dogs, Dahlia & Rose. Rose is a golden doodle puppy & Dahlia is a black boxer. "Hi my babies I missed you!" Ivy says in a baby voice. She gets down to their level & hugs & kisses them both. Reggie goes upstairs to put his stuff in Ivy's room.
Suddenly, Ivy's phone starts to ring. "Hello?" She answers. "S.O.S." Veronica says on the other end of the line. "Ronnie I'm busy right now. I have to make dinner & do some laundry. What's the problem?" Ivy questions. "Bee needs to talk. About Jug." Ivy groans at her friends words. "Tell her that you guys will have to catch me up. I'm exhausted." "Whatever you say princess." Veronica hangs up afterwards. Ivy groans & lays on the floor.
"What did I miss?" Reggie asks. "Girl drama." Ivy answers rolling her eyes. "Okay I'm gonna make dinner & then I'm gonna do laundry. Then afterwards, I'm gonna study." Ivy could feel herself start to stress out as she rambled off a list of things she needed to do. She starting picking at her nails as she does when she gets stressed. "Okay Ivy, calm down. I'm gonna make dinner for the both of us & do your laundry. All you need to do is study & stay in bed. I got this." Reggie says with a wink. Ivy can't help but smile. "Do you even know how to do laundry?" She asks. "I'm sure I can figure it out." He replies kissing her lips.

Reggie plops down into Ivy's bed & snuggles up next to her. He lays his head on her chest & she plays with his hair. "You're acting like a big baby right now Reg." Ivy chuckles. "You act like a baby all the time. It's my turn." He pouts. "Fair enough she says." Soon enough the two of them pass out.
Ivy is awoken by the annoying sound of her alarm. "Ughh Reggie get off of me. We have school." She whines. "Just a few more minutes." He pleads. She rolls her eyes & pushes him off of her. Ivy starts to get ready for the day. She curls her already wavy hair & puts it into a half up half down. Puts on some clothes & gets her bag, just to realize that Reggie was still sleeping. She walks over to her shirtless boyfriend & kisses his muscular back. He slightly moans & Ivy chuckles. "Is school even important? We can just stay home all day." Reggie suggests. "Now you know we can't do that Reg." He groans & gets up.

The couple arrives at school & Reggie kisses Ivy before walking over to his friends. Ivy walks in the school soon enough to hear the announcement. "Students of Riverdale High, this is your principal speaking. E-mails have been sent to your parents, but effective immediately, Southside High School is shut down. & it's students will be transferred to other schools in the district, including this one. I'm sure you have many questions. But it goes without saying, we are welcoming these students with open minds, hearts, & arms. Thank you. That is all." Principal Weatherbee says through the intercom.
Ivy walks down the hallway with a million thoughts in her head. What the hell is gonna happen now? Is Sweet Pea gonna come here? Who even knows. She continues walking down the hall & hears someone yelling her name. "Ivy!" She turns around to see Reggie running towards her. "Did you hear that?" He says in disbelief. "Of course I heard it." She chuckles.
"How can you laugh at a time like this? Thugs are gonna infiltrate this school. I can't let that happen!" Reggie says as they walk side by side to math. "Reggie, they're just people. It's gonna be fine, I promise. No need to stress out sweet heart." She says giving him a kiss & calming Reggie down before they walk into the math class.
A/N: Okay so I know the story is moving quite fast but I'm gonna slow it down & try to make more sense out of it :)
