Veronica's p.o.v:

I continue to hear the beeping of the Heart machine. I look at Archie then back at the machine. I feel drips drops of wetness start running down my face. I run out of the room and into the waiting room. Where everyone looks at me.
"Veronica, what's wrong." Betty asks.
"Arch..Archie..he..he is" I try saying I break down into more tears.
"Go check." I finally am able to say. Betty goes and checks on Archie. She comes back all happy and stuff.
"What about him? He's fine." She says.
"But he wasn't just a second ago." I say confused. I go back into the room and sure enough Betty was right as always, he's fine.
"Arch what happened?" I say sitting down and holiness his hand.
"What do you mean, Ronnie?" He says.
"Never mind." I say not wanting to explain to him.
"The doctor came in a few minutes ago and he said I'm about to get out in about an hour." He says.
"What's so wrong about that?" I question.
"Nothing. I'm so happy to get out. But this feeling in me it's telling me that it's not safe. That we're not safe. None of us." He says. I hold his hand and kiss him on the cheek.
"Archiekins, we're going to be safe. We have each other right now and that's all that matters." I say smiling. He smiles back at me. Then just hear the room door open and see the doctor.
"You're ready to leave." Doctor said. I leave to tell everyone the good news.
"Hey everyone, Archie's getting out." I say walking in. Everyone started cheering and applauding. We see Archie walk out. He was fine but had wraps around his chest area, a cast for his leg and arm, and a few cuts and bruises on his face. One by one we go up to him and hug him.
"Ronnie, you wanna go to my place?" He says to me.
"Oh Archiekins, we can't do it your hurt. I don't wanna hurt you more." I say.
"That's not what I meant. Are we even dating?" He asked.
"Do you wanna be?" I ask getting closer or him forgetting that everyone else was still here.
"Yes." He says kissing me.
"Good. Me too. And I would love to go to your place to hang out. Until you feel better, then i can do more than hang out." I whisper the last part on his ear. He looks at me winks and smiles.

                                        *At Archie's*

We walk into his house and run upstairs.
"Ronnie, I want to talk to you about what happened between us, then the following action." He says sitting on his bed.
"Okay, what about it?" I ask.
"What I said to you, Ronnie, none of it was true. I never thought that you were using me and you were a hoe. I just didn't want to accept the fact that I MIGHT be getting used a girl I really like. It would've literally broke my heart." He says.
"Archie, what I said, that you were ugly and no one likes you, I said it out of angerment. I didn't want to hurt your feelings or lose your feelings for me.  I seriously don't know why I said that and I'm sorry for it. And you aren't ugly you're HOT AS HELL!" I say giggling at the last part.
"Thanks Ronnie, I know it wasnt true right when you came running towards me when I got shot." He says holding my hand.
"And about the accident I sorry I had to put you through that. I wanted to risk my life for something that I care about." He says kissing me.
"Archie, this is all my fault, If I had never called you ugly and whatever, you probably wouldn't have ever broke up with me, I wouldn't have been sadly looking out the window, you wouldn't have gotten distracted by me, and you wouldn't have ever hurt yourself saving me." I say looking down.
"Ronnie, it's not your fault. I decided to save you. Even if we never broke up I would've saved you. You mean a lot to me Ronnie and I wouldn't let anything or anyone hurt you unless they hurt me as well." He says smiling. I smile back to him. He breaks the happiness and went back to a serious but questioning face.
"What you thinking 'bout, babe?" I say to him.
"Veroncia, don't get mad at what I'm about to ask you but, we're you ever using me? Please tell the truth." He asks looking at me with a pleading face.
"Honestly, at first i was but when we had sex I honestly want even sure what I was doing. But I had my answer when you got shot. I know that sounds bad but it put me in a risk of losing you. It showed me that I like you a lot Archie. Almost falling in love with you. I'm so sorry Archie." I say hoping he won't be mad at me.
"Ronnie, no need to be sorry, I'm not mad. I have you know and that is a lot that matters to me right now." He kisses me and I kiss back. He kisses back and I sit on his lap( like in "The Lost Weekend" episode when they make out.) He pulls me closer to him and I stop kissing him.
"Archie should we really be making out with your ribs like that?" I ask concerned.
"Ronnie, I really don't care. I just want you. But not like sex at least not right now at least." He says winking at me.
We continue to make out for a while.
"Archie can we just lie down and fall asleep your arm over me. Me resting my head on your chest. Please." I say to him.
"I'll love that, babe" he says smiling his beautiful smile.
