"What has this boy gotten himself into?  Archie Andrews, a young and clearly innocent boy being held on trial for murder!" I sighed and leaned into FP's side more. "We know he didn't do it, but the judge didn't.  Besides Mary is going to get him out of it anyway." He reassured me running his hands down my back.

"I'm just worried...for Elizabeth's sake of course."
"You actually care about red. It's cute."  FP poked my cheek. "He's Fred's boy and...I don't think I couldn't care." I tightened the blanket around us. "I care too.  His trial is tomorrow, you going?"
"Of course I'm going. To support Fred and Betty, well all the kids." I grabbed the glass of the coffee table.

"You want a ride there?" Fp offered. "I would say yes, but I have to drive Betty and I don't think she needs another case to solve." I chuckled. "Ok, but your at least sitting next to me in the court room."

"Ok baby. I'll sit next to you." I chuckled leaving a kiss on his cheek. I grabbed my purse getting ready to leave. "Where are you going?" He questioned jumping up after me. "I have daughters to get home to and...I don't think your son would like to see me straddling his father when he comes home." I whispered into FP's ear. Giving him one last kiss before leaving.

"Mom are you almost ready!" Betty frantically stormed into my room. "I have a whole hour left sweetie. Do you need something to distract you?" I asked leading her to my bathroom. "Yes." She whined and sat down on my vanity chair.

"I will put on a tiny bit of makeup and then you can pick my outfit." I smiled looking through my bag. "You haven't picked an outfit." Betty stressed. "Go and pick it out now." I chuckled and she dashed to my closet. "I love it. Now sit back down." I chuckled and started her makeup again.

"Ok get dressed I made coffee for you, in a to-go cup." Betty rushed down the staircase and out the door. I chuckled following her, grabbing my things on the way out.
~~
"I'm going to wait out here. You can go." I smiled letting Betty catch up with Mary and Fred. I took a deep breath sitting in my car. This poor kid I thought. My thinking was cut off by a knock on my window. "Well you look just gorgeous." Fp smirked and leaned into my window placing a kiss on my cheek.

I smiled and got out. "Don't look to bad yourself Jonesy." I winked grabbing my bag. "Don't know how I'm supposed to act civil in the court room today."  FP shook his head looking me up and down.

"You better learn quick or else I will sit Betty and jughead in between us." I patted his shoulder and walked toward the building. "Wait Al." FP pulled me back and wrapped his arms around my waist. "What?" I chuckled and placed my hands on his shoulders. "I love you." He grinned and placed his lips onto mine.

"I love you too." I smiled placing one last kiss to his lips for awhile. "Let's go." I grabbed his hand walking into the court house. I looked back at him and let his hand go opening the doors. I heard FP let out a growl and I let out a giggle.

"There you two are." Betty huffed and grabbed my hand. "We are coming." I rolled my eyes. Letting myself be drug by Betty into the court room. "Sit down and don't fight!" She warned placing FP and I in seats.

"We are adults right?" I questioned watching the pair walk off. "It's a tuff day, just let her vent." FP rubbed his hand up and down my thigh. "Hands where I can see them." I warned and looked around to find Mary. "I'll be back." I patted his hand leaving to talk to Mary.
~~
I gave FP a warning look as he placed his hand on my knee. He chuckled slightly giving a light squeeze. I pecked over at the kids who were to focused on Archie, thank god. "Knock it off." I whispered pushing his hand away. "I'm not doing anything." He shrugged and inched his hand up higher.

I let out a sigh trying to refocus on the trial. "I'm serious someone can see us!" I harshly whispered knocking FP's hand off. The kids gave us questioning looked before turning back to the trial. I gave FP an 'I told you so' look and he just smirked.

His hand soon found its way up again. I rolled my eyes deciding to ignore him. "FP..." I gasped. "Where is your hand going!" I squirmed trying to stop his hand from moving. "What the hell is your hand doing." I became wide eyed trying not to squeal.

"Just focus on the trial baby." He whispered into my ear. I controlled my breathing the best I could. Finally he quit and removed his hand acting like nothing happened. I sent him a glare and turned my back to him.

Betty sent me a glare for acting like a child, but if only she knew. The trial went on for another 30min before deciding to take a recess. "I'm going to the bathroom." I sighed and left the three behind. I washed my hands and splashed some water on my face trying to cool down.

It was summer with no air conditioning and FP's hand was not helping the situation. I fixed my makeup once more before leaving. I opened the door to see FP standing outside. "Is anyone else in here?" He questioned poking his head inside. "FP not here." I pushed him back, but he barged in.

"I can't wait." He whined and locked the door. "Yes you can." I moved to try and unlock it, but he mirrored my moves. "No I can't." He gritted through his teeth. I peered down and smirked. "That is exactly what you get for your act in their." I chuckled and ran a hand through his hair. "Al please!" He whined and I smirked. "We have...15 minutes. Make it fast."
~~
"Finally, you guess disappeared." Jughead huffed. "We were gone an for..."
"Over an hour." Betty sighed and shook her head. "Why! Please tell me what is more important!"
"Archie is safe and at home. Everything is fine." I tried to change the subject. "Your lucky I'm happy right now." Betty sent me one last glare before dragging jughead off. "We have to be more careful next time." I sighed and slapped FP's shoulder.

"We are off the hook. Plus you know you liked it." He smirked and moved us into another more private hallway. "I always do...but that is not the point." I giggled and FP placed his hand at my eye level. "I say we forget about today...and get Pops take out." He suggested. "That's sounds like a plan." I grinned.
