     As Ivy and her new friend walk and talk about Cheryl. Ivy can see how much Toni likes her, despite all the times that Cheryl has insulted her or ignored her. "I don't know what it is about her. Maybe the fact that she doesn't want me makes me want her even more, but I really like her." Toni says gushing over Cheryl. Ivy lets out some "awws" while Toni was talking. Ivy waves goodbye to Toni as she heads to class. "Is this how you talk about me when I'm not around?" Sweet Pea asked shifting his hand from Ivy's hand to her waist as he turns to face her. "Yeah of course." Ivy says smiling up at her boyfriend.  Sweet Pea smiles at her and kisses her forehead before heading to his class. 

     Ivy walks into her class and rolls her eyes at the sight she sees. Reggie. "Aw, Ivy are you jealous that you don't have my attention anymore?" Reggie asks his ex-girlfriend when she walked by without acknowledging her. Ivy laughed. "I may not have your attention anymore, but it's clear that I still have yours." He laughs and walks closer to her. "Oh honey, you only have my attention when you come in looking like that. You know how much I love those jeans. Just come back to me baby, I miss you. Josie doesn't mean anything to me and she never did." He says backing her into a corner. He grabs her waist and pushes her up against a wall. Ivy would never admit it but she was feeling threatened and a little afraid of what he would do.

     "Reggie, please just leave me alone." Ivy pleaded while wincing. She prayed and hoped that someone would come in the room and help. She just had  to get to school early that day. Reggie removes a piece of hair from her face and tucks it behind her ear. He whispers in her ear. "You will always belong to me." He looks her in the eyes before kissing her on the forehead. He walks away and turns around. Ivy grabs the neck of Reggie's shirt before turning him around and landing a left punch to his left eye. 

     She lunges at him ready to land more punches on him. "Woah baby." Sweet Pea says pulling her off. "No! Let me at him. Pea let go of me!" Ivy yells at him trying as hard as she can to resist her Serpent boyfriend. "Baby calm down. What did he do." He says grabbing her face gently. He notices the tears starting to form on the edges of her eyes. He pulls her into a hug and rubs her back. "Well you knocked him out. You've got hella power behind that punch." He says chuckling trying to lighten the mood. "What are you doing here?" Ivy asks. "I realized that I grabbed your math book instead of my AP Psychology book. Now tell me what he did." He says looking into her eyes. She explained everything that happened just in time for Reggie to wake up. 

     Sweet Pea grabbed Reggie by the collar of his shirt. "If you ever  touch her or go near her again, she will be the least of your problems, because she can clearly handle herself. But I swear to you Reggie Mantle. I will kill you." He finishes shoving him back on the ground. He hugs her one more time. "Okay I'm gonna go to class, I love you." He says kissing her forehead before heading to class. She wipes her tears and sits in the back of the class.

     At the end of the day Sweet Pea and Ivy walk from their last class of the day to the motorcycle. Sweet Pea can tell that Ivy is still shaken up by the events that took place earlier that morning. He knew just what to do to help her cheer up. When they got on the motorcycle they headed home. When they arrived Sweet Pea packed a basket full of Ivy and her favorite snacks. "Babe! Get your bathing suit on we are gonna go somewhere." He says finishing up. He wraps the basket and sets it by the door. "Pea why am I gonna put on my swim suit?" She asked leaning on the doorway. "Just do it. I promise you won't be disappointed." He says smiling. 

   She shrugs her shoulders and walks back into the bedroom. When she comes back out she feeds the dogs and pets them. She grabs her serpent jacket and throws it on over her swim suit. Sweet Pea grabs her hand as they walk out the door. "So where are we going?" Ivy asks putting on his helmet. "It's a surprise." He answers while pushing down the visor on the helmet. He revs the engine before pulling out of the driveway. He drives recklessly down the road heading to Sweetwater River, the place where Ivy had first confessed her love for him. He smiles while hearing Ivy yelling in excitement. 

     When they get there, Ivy smiles and gives him a hug. "You're the best." She says into his chest. He pulls away and sets the basket on the ground just before helping Ivy take her jacket off. He sets both of their jackets on the bike. He turns around just in time for him to see Ivy running off the dock and straight into the water. He chuckles to himself and shakes his head. He follows Ivy into the water. The couple continues to splash each other and enjoy themselves. "Okay princess are you ready to go?" Sweet Pea asks his girlfriend. She nods her head while yawning. They get out and dry off. Ivy checks her phone to see many missed calls from Jughead.

     "Babe, check your phone too." Ivy tells him. He checks his phone but there were no missed calls. "Why the hell is he calling you so much?" He asked, seeming angry. She walks over to him and grabs his hand and rubs small circles on the back of his hand. "I'm not sure honey but it has to be important, so we are gonna go find him and figure this out."
