Betty's POV
Finally. I had just gotten off the bus to New York. I left Riverdale to come here, New York. Riverdale just wasn't the place for me. Almost everyone there has hurt me. Everyone except my Mom. My Mom was always there for me. My dad and sibling left me and her when I was around 5. But anyways, Whenever I would come crying because of people at school or Archie she would always just hug me and if I didn't want to talk about it, she understood and just held me. But, one day after school, I went straight home but she wasn't there. Which was unusual because she was always home when I got home. She got off work at 2:30 everyday and I came home around 3:15 almost everyday. I went upstairs to see if she was in her room and maybe just didn't hear me come in. I went inside her room and all her stuff was gone and I haven't seen her since. It sucks and it still sucks. But all people have to say is that she left and hated me, which I started to believe but I know she's out there somewhere and I know something happened but it's been 2 years.
After I called the police, they decided to put me in a foster home. I was then part of the Mantle family. But then I turned 18 and got kicked out because apparently I was "able to go alone", so once I finished school, they told me I had to find my own place and basically go on my home. So I started working at pop's and at the drive in. I lived in a cheap hotel in Riverdale for about 3 months and then saved up enough money to rent an apartment in New York and that where I am now.
(Back to the real time)
I carried my backpack as I walked down the streets of New York to my new apartment. Most of the stuff I had was delivered to the apartment but the apartment was already furnished. I finally got to the apartment building. It was called "Lodge Brook". The building was huge and I could wait. I walked up to the front desk and I put my phone in my back pocket of my jeans.
"Hello. I'm here to get my key for the Apartment. The lady I talked on the phone with said I could just ask here." I said.
"Yes, yes, of course. Can I your room number please?"
"Umm yea. It's Floor 4 room 28"
"Okay ! Here you go and I hope you like your apartment." She says while handing my the gold key to my room.
"Thank you so much. My I get your name, just incase"
"Oh, of course my name is Hermione Lodge. And yours?"
"Betty. Betty Cooper!"
"Well enjoy, if you need anything, call the front desk and ask for me!"
"Okay, thanks"
I say goodbye and play with the key in my hand. I decide to walk up the stairs to get a full view of the lobby. It was super nice and I was just glad I could afford a big apartment in the huge building. While I am walking up the stairs, I bump into the guys. I drop my key and wallet and he immediately turned around and dropped down to pick my key and wallet up.
"Sorry. I wasn't paying any attention." He says while standing up and handing me my key and wallet. God was he hot!! He had dark hair that was a it curly and messy but it was cute. He had a "S" shirt on and dark black jeans.
"Oh. No.um. It's okay. My fault. I wasn't paying attention either." I say will laughing.
"Sorry again!" He says.
"It's totally fine" I chuckle after.
"Alright" He says chuckling.
"Well I should start heading back upstairs"
"Oh so should I actually"
We both start walking up the stairs together. He was actually really nice but also really hot.
"So do you live here or visiting someone?" He asks.
"I live here. You?" I say.
"Same"
"Just got here today" we both say. We then start chuckling while looking at each other.
"Well this is my stop" as as we take a turn. We stopped in front of room 28.
"Same. Mine in right across 28. It's 29"
"Okay. Well I guess were neighbors sorta" I say chuckling a bit.
"Yup. Well I'll see you around hopefully!"
"Yes. Hopefully" I say while taking the key out of my pocket.
We say goodbye and he goes into his apartment waving at me. I waved back and then turned to face my door and put my key in the door knob and unlock it. I open the door and there are 10 boxes lying on the floor from when the movers come to drop my stuff off. I put my backpack in the kitchen on the counter. I set my key down and start to look around.
(The next chapter or part will probably be a tour of Betty's apartment.
Everything was so nice. I started to take things out of the boxes and putting them into the rooms where they belong. After about an hour almost everything was unpack because I didn't have that much stuff. I decided to go to the boxes in my room that I hadn't unpacked that were full of clothes. I picked out some black nike sweatpants, a oversized maroon t-shirt, and some black comfy socks. I brought the clothes to my bathroom and turned the shower on. After my shower, I wrapped a towel around my body and hair and went up to the sink and brushed my teeth. I already put all my toiletries in my bathroom so it's was all ready. After I brushed my teeth and put my clothes on and started to brush my hair. After I brushed my hair a I just left it down and decided to call it a night. I put my phone on the charger and covered myself with a big comfy blanket I had brought to New York. As I was trying to fall asleep, I couldn't stop thinking about the boy I bumped into while walking up hear and also who lives across from me. I didn't even tell him my name or get his name. I guess I will have to tell him when we see each other again. Maybe even tomorrow.
Heeeeyyyyyy. So I hope you guys enjoyed this first chapter. I probably will end up posting another chapter are two today. If you liked it comment any suggestions you have about the story and yea. Thank you for reading. Byeeee.
