It's 7:15pm. Betty is in the library looking for some book to read. She looks at the clock and sees that it's pretty late and remembers what Jughead told her 3 hours ago about Veronica coming earlier. She still didn't know where the party would take place. She decided she would ask Veronica when she'll see her.
She heads out of the library and takes her phone to send a message to Veronica.
B: Hey. It's Betty. Jughead told me you had to be at the party before it starts.
Veronica doesn't reply immediately so Betty puts her phone in her back pocket and goes outside to look for her. After 10 minutes, she still didn't find her and she starts wondering where she spends all her time.
Her phone vibrates and she takes it to see who it is. Finally! She whispers in an exhale, seeing that it's a text from Veronica.
V: Hey! Yeah I know, he just sent me a message, I'm on my way there. You coming?
B: I'd like to, but nobody told me where it would take place yet.
V: Ouch. Sorry. I thought I had told you. It's at Cheryl's.
V: Also, can you come now? I'd like you to help me. And I could talk?
B: Sure. I'm coming right now. Just send me the address and I'll be there.
Veronica sends her the address and she sees that it's not far from here so she decides to go there walking instead of taking the bus. She would be there in 10 min, anyways.
*****
She arrives at Cheryl's. She's impressed by how big her house is. But she figures a girl 'like her' wouldn't be living in a little apartment, anyways.
She reaches the door and knocks. She waits a while, stressed that Cheryl would be the one to open the door. That's almost unbelievable how much she fears her because of her own childhood whilst she didn't even meet her yet. This thought upsets her so much. The fact that she can't move on. It was only a little part of her life, anyways; and she was very young.
The sound of the door unlocking made her jump and dragged her out of her thoughts. When the door opens, she's relieved to see Veronica. For some reasons, she didn't want Jughead to open it either. Maybe for the awkward little moment they had in front of her room. She was probably embarrassed. She didn't want to end up in the same place as him alone.
Veronica hurried to hug her with her exited look and Betty hugged her back.
"Heyyy! You were quick!" She pulls away, her big smile on her face. Betty is shook. She had never seen anybody being so exited to see her. She doesn't show it though, and just get into the big house when Veronica lets her in.
The inside is even more beautiful than the outside. The walls are a color between light gray and light brown, there are two white and gray dressers on the living room, and the back of it isn't a wall but plate glass, which gives the house a luxurious look. There are two gray couches on her right that are facing an LG 60 smart cinema 3D. On the other side, there are four armchairs that are facing the two couches, twenty feet from them and five feet away from each other. The most impressive though is the pool outside that we can see through the plate glass. It is the biggest pool she had ever seen in someone's house.
She suddenly feels a hand on her shoulder. She turns her head a little and sees Veronica. She first looks at Betty and then through the plate glass in front of them.
"Pretty impressive, isn't it?" She sighs, but more as a content sigh because Betty can see the corner of her lips lifting up a little.
"It sure is." She replies the same way. "How can someone even live in here?" She looks around, amazed by the beauty of this house.
