No Turning Back [Archie Andrews]

ELEVEN

Lily walked up to her sister, who was on her phone. Lily looked at Kevin and Betty's concerned faces, and she knew exactly what was going on. "I take it by the looks on your faces, you already found out." Veronica looked up. "Does he not know who I am? I will cut the brakes on his suped-up phallic symbol." Lily held her hands up in a form of panic. "Whoa, easy. There is another way to solve this." Betty nodded. "We can go to Principal Weatherbee." Lily shook her head. "About the coach's son? Who is the captain of the football team, and Riverdale High's resident boy?" Kevin looked at Betty. "Lily's got a point."

Betty thought of an idea. "Or I can expose him in the pages of the Blue and Gold." She gained confidence. "Yeah, I can do that." Veronica shook her head. "No. Spoken like a true good girl who always follows the rules." She slammed her locker door shut. "Well I don't follow rules." She pushed Kevin out of the way and started fast-walking down the hall. "I make them, and when necessary, I break them." Lily grimaced. This was not going to be good.

She followed them into the boy's locker room. "Excuse me, sorry." She noticed Veronica had pushed Archie out of the way, and she looked at him, sighing. She jogged over to where Veronica was confronting Chuck. Chuck looked at the brunette. "Hey, look who it is. I thought you were innocent, but you are just as dirty as your little sister." Lily felt enraged. "And you're a dirty filthy liar who doesn't deserve my sister's attention." He frowned. "At least I'm not a slut who goes into a closet with Andrews." She raised an eyebrow. "Well if you went into a closet with Archie, then you'd be something else." He folded his arms. Lily gestured to Veronica. "Take it down, Clayton." Clayton shook his head.

"Okay, that high-toned bitch attitude may have worked on the betas you dated in New York, but you're in Bulldog territory." They started laughing. "But please, fight back. You'll only make it harder on yourself." Lily rolled her eyes and walked away.

Lily sat on her couch, taking a sip of her water. Veronica walked in and sat next to her. "What do you plan on doing from here?" Veronica sighed. "Betty's over at Pop's, talking to him." Lily grimaced. "I don't know if that's necessarily a good idea." Veronica shrugged. Lily set down her water. "If you need any additional help, I'm here." Veronica chuckled. "Thanks, Lil, but I think we're good."

Hermione Lodge walked over to the two siblings. "Hey, I've been meaning to ask. How was your date last night? I like the looks of that boy." Lily made a gesture for Hermione to stop talking, but Veronica shrugged it off. "The more handsome on the outside, the more rotten on the inside." Hermione folded her arms, intrigued. "What's that supposed to mean?" Lily cut in. "Nothing, just he's not her type." Veronica sighed.

Veronica's phone rang, and Lily raised an eyebrow. She turned to her sister. "Who is it?" Veronica looked at her phone. "This is Betty, can I take it?" Hermione nodded, and left the room. Veronica sighed. "Hello?" Lily didn't hear what Betty said, but she knew it shocked Veronica. "What is it?
