Veronicas POV:

We went to the door and I rang. We waited until my Friend Shawn opened and said:"Hey Veronica and?", he looked questionable. "Betty, Betty Cooper."  I said and linked our arms together. „Oh Yeah, come in." he said and hugged me. He just shook Betty's hand and told her that his name is Shawn. „Okay, Feel like Home and have fun." Shawn said and left into the kitchen.

There was way more people than I expected and I just knew like five of them, most of them were already utterly drunk or high. The house smelled like alcohol and weed and there were some people making out or dancing and almost everyone had a drink in their hand.

Betty took my hand, so I looked at her. She looked a little bit afraid so I whispered to her, well I tried, because the music was to loud, „Do you wanna stay or should we go B?". „It's gonna be okay, here are just so many people. But let's stay" she said back. I smiled and led her into the very huge living room.

A guy came up to us and hugged me. „You're here? It's so good to see you again Veronica!" he said. I hugged back and said, "Good to see you too David." Betty looked confused. „That's my bestie, Betty." I pointed at her and he looked over to her, then he hugged her and now she looked even more confused, but she hugged back and I giggled. „Nice to meet you. If you two want a drink, it's in the kitchen. Have fun girls!" He almost screamed, after that he walked away to a girl he instantly made out with.

„Okay, if he says so, let's go." i said to Betty with a smirk plastered on my face. You could feel she still wasn't really comfortable, but she took my hand and we went to the kitchen. Shawn saw us and gave us two shoots. „Here, you're welcome." we just smiled. „Okay, let the party get started." I said, then I drank it. She drank it right after me, it was very strong, so she made a funny grimace and I laughed at her, she gave me a light hit on the shoulder.

We drank a few more drinks and danced together and with some others, well I did, Betty not. The only person she wanted to dance with was me, that's really cute actually. So I tried to dance with her all the time. Betty drank way to much, at some point she ran to the bathroom and I followed her.
——————————
And now we're sitting on the bathroom floor and Betty is throwing up in the toilet. „Betts, Are you okay?" i say clearly drunk but still caring. „Yeah, it's better now." she says embarrassed. „It's okay, everyone throws up from alcohol at least ones in their life." I say, „Here a glass of water and a gum." she drinks the whole glass quickly and puts the gum in her mouth. „Thank you V, I don't know what I would do without you...but sorry you had to see this."

„Hey it's okay." I say as I lift her head so that she looks at me and rest my hand on her cheek, „really B." For a moment we just stare at each others eyes, both completely drunk, she quickly looks at my lips and then comes up to my eyes again. Then my lips again and she comes closer to me. I start to lean in, until our lips almost touch.

But exactly now a drunk girl comes in and throws up in the toilet. I remember her, It's the girl who earlier made out with David.

I was deep in my thoughts now, Betty too I think, well I don't really know what to think."Why did that happen. Was she really going to kiss me, or was it just me hallucinating? Ehm, should I say something or should I just stay quiet?" But I can't stay quiet.

"Betty, can we talk, like- eh...outside?" I say to her as the girl continues to throw up. "Of course." Betty says self-confident, like nothing has happened. I stand up and take her hand, to help her up,"thanks". Never letting go of her hand, I take her to the back door, where people are smoking, some of them cigarettes or weed. But I led us away from them so we have the possibility to talk alone.

"I uh... think we should talk, about that almost, you know, in the bathroom after you threw up.", i say with many stutters. "I don't know what you mean.", she says and smirks. "You know what I mean Betty", I look annoyed. "No, I don't think so.", okay she is so drunk. "Yes, you do. You wanted to kiss me."

"Really? I don't remember." She says and steps closer to me. "No! Betty stop! Don't do that!" I yell. "Do what?" She says and the smirk disappears. "Don't"*sigh*," just don't fuck with my feelings Betty Cooper... You're totally drunk and, and you are probably not even gonna remember a thing, but I will Betty, I will. And you're broken hearted, I now that, but don't break mine more, than it already is. And... just don't." I know I shouldn't have said that, because Betty doesn't answer, she just looks at me.

"Please, don't make this so weird now B..." I say a little bit sad. "I am sorry V." She says. "Sorry for what?" I ask her. "Trying to um, well kiss you and play with your feeling. I truly didn't want to do that.", B says. "It's okay. But why did you actually wanna kiss me?", I ask unsure. "I don't now, I just think I wanted to."

"A-and what do you think now B?". "I am not really sure, but I still think this...I think. If that makes sense.", she says stuttering. "Actually it does make sense, because I think the same way, it's just so crazy. I mean we're best friends and we, we just broke up with our boyfriends today and I don't think it's okay. Or is it, because they broke up-" I say but Betty stops me by putting a finger on my mouth, so I look at her.

„You always think to much Veronica." She says with a giggle. „No, normally you're the person who thinks to much Betty. But now you're totally drunk and can't even think right anymore." I say with an evil smirk. „Do you remember...?" She say but stop after the word remember. „Remember what?" I say after a short silence. „Do you remember... the cheerleading tryouts?", she ask me.

„Of course I do B." I say and giggle. „Yeah, um- but do you remember that you, well kissed me?", she asks and I just look at her confused. „Yeah, why?" i ask unsure. „It was my first kiss ever, well my first real kiss.", she says. "Wait, what really?" I say and she just nods. „Well, did you like it then?", I ask smirking. „Actually I did. Don't tell Jughead but you're the better kisser." she says and we both start to laugh.

She stops suddenly, so I stop too. „I really wanna kiss you right now." She spills out. I look at her and say nothing, it felt like forever until she talked again. „I'm sorry V, I didn't mean to say that." she says embarrassed and sad. „It's okay B, it's just that your to drunk, because sober you'd never say something like that."

„That's probably right, I would never say that, but I thought about it, many times actually. But sober I am a coward and now I'm not." she says a little proud. I don't know what to say but then I can get a sentence out, „Y-you thought about kissing me again?". She smirks and says, "Yup and I'm not gonna be ashamed of it anymore! well maybe tomorrow I will be again, but eh not today."

We stand there a little bit until I speak again. „Maybe we should get in again?". She takes my hand and goes to the house again, we go inside and she takes a drink. „No no no, you're not gonna drink more, you already threw up!" I say to her and she looks pissed at me, then I take her drink out of her hand and drink all of it at ones. Now she looks even more mad and I smirk at her. „We should go home soon, you can sleep at my place, just tell your mom you went out sooner in the morning so you could go to the library or something, if she asks." I say, she is so drunk that she almost can't stand anymore. „Okay, thanks." she says and hugs me suddenly. „Eh, no Problem."

„Can we go, like now?" she asks then. „Of course we can." I say and take her hand to go outside. „Shouldn't we say goodbye or something?" she asks me. „No B, that's a party, we don't have to. I can just write him a message tomorrow. But if you want to..." I say to her and she replies, "N-no it's fine, I wanna go home now.", and I smile.
