Just The Two Of Us <Sweet Pea FF>

13. Nuevo

~Monday
My first day at the new school. I should dress nice because in contrast to my boyfriend and the other serpents I'm excited to meet new people, especially Jugheads friends.
Choose your outfit:

"Ready?" I hear sweet pea calling from the kitchen. I walk through the trailer and as he sees me he looks me up and down "showing some skin today, huh?" but I'm not gonna respond to that now. "Let's go" i badger. "Alright" he takes my Hand as response and we walk outside.

After a short drive we arrive at Riverdale high our new school. I have to say it looks pretty good, not at all what I'm used to though. "Ah look there are the others" I point at a group of people standing about 200 feet away from us.

"Hey Julia, hi sweet pea" they greet us. "Shall we get inside?" Jughead proposes and he starts walking. Next to him fangs and Sweet Pea and behind them Toni and I join them behind us the other serpents. It feels weird, like we're walking in slow motion and I can see everyone staring at us.

We approach a small table with some students standing behind it.
"Friends" a dark haired girl welcomes us with a warm smile "on behalf of the students and faculty at Riverdale High, welcome to your new school" she looks at us and folds her hands. "To ease this transition, I've set up a registration desk where you can get locker assignments, schedules and a list of sports and extracurriculars." She explains while pointing at each pile of papers. "We encourage each and every one of you to drink deeply from the cup that is fair Riverdale." Ok now she lost me.

Now she is looking at me and I smile back at her when suddenly a loud voice sounds down the hall "stand down, Eva Peron." A redhaired girl in a beautiful red dress comes down the stairs with a guy next to her and a whole group of cheerleaders and football players following them.

Wow this is dramatic, I can see the girl who just explained everything to us rolling her eyes as she turns around to look who is coming.
And I'm not the only one who sensed the tention "there's the school spirit I so fondly remember" Jughead states and I can see most of the serpents tensing up and crossing their arms.

They come closer "Cheryl, no one invited Fascist Barbie to the party" the raven haired girl fires back at her.
"Wrong, Veronica. No one invited Southside scum to our school" the girl who appears to be Cheryl snaps back "listen up, ragamuffins. I will not allow Riverdale High's above average GPA to suffer because of classrooms overcrowded with underachievers" ok rude "so, please, do us all a favour and find some other school to debase with your hardscrabble ways." She smiles with her full red lips. I already feel welcomed and so does Toni "Why don't you come over here and say that to my face?" She steps forward and Cheryl does it the same way "Happily, Queen of the Buskers." But before this situation could get any more uncomfortable a tall redheaded guy steps between them "Okay, guys. Everyone. Can we just put our Northside-Southside differences apart and start over? We are one school and we should help each other out"
The guy who accompanied Cheryl now steps forward and touches my shoulder "Right, I'm Reggie how about I show you the school" he flirts tilting his head and smirking at me. But I don't even get to say anything because sweet pea walks in front of me "I don't think so" he hisses into Reggies face and pushes his hand off my shoulder. "Watch it serpent scum" Reggie spits out. "Ok enough guys" Jughead and his redheaded friend said simultaneously and stand between sweet pea and Reggie.

The situation calms down and Jughead pulls me aside behind the table. I now stand in front of some people who I assume are his friends. "Guys this is Julia my best friend" why did he has to say that tho. "Its so Nice to finally meet you all, Jughead told me so much about you guys. I'm Julia Monroe" "Julia Sofia Monroe" jug adds because he knows I don't like my full name. "Nice to meet you I'm Kevin Keller and that is a gorgeous name" a guy smiles at me nicely. "I'm betty Cooper its so good to meet you too jughead told us about you too" a pretty girl with green eyes and a high blonde ponytail shakes my hand. She is the stripper, omg. That means she is Jugheads ex girlfriend. Realisation.
"I'm veronica lodge it's a pleasure to meet you, can I call you J? Btw what a magnificent bag" "sure and thank you" I laugh at her. And now the last guy "Archie, Archie Andrews" he has a warm and kind smile. "And the girl was Cheryl she can b..." "she can be a bitch" veronica completes his sentence. "Well she can be nice" betty defends her. " I have not seen that side of her yet" everybody laughs at my comment. "Oh and the guy who was hitting on you is Reggie, well he is just Reggie" Kevin declares "single or taken?" He questions with an interested smirk. "Taken" I grin back. I already know he is into guys because Jughead told me. "And who is the lucky guy" veronica leans closer to me. "Sweet pea" Jughead answered for me. Everybody seems a bit shook.
But the bell rings and breaks the silence. "So J how about we all meet at pops after school and we get to know each other and you tell us about sweet pea" she winks at me "sounds great" I laugh and head to my class with Jughead.

"So how do you like them?" Jug wonders
"They are all so nice"
"I knew you would get along with them." He jokingly punches me.

Wow the biology teacher is great. She is blonde has glasses and is maybe in the beginning of her 30s.
"So can anyone tell me why the obstruction of gene expression is a biological practical procedure is? Julia?" Mrs. Cohen asks.
"Ehm because not too much unneeded energy or material is used." I suggest
"That's right, it would harm the bacteria on long terms" she explains
And I have to admit that I'm really interested in this. Next to me Jughead is imitating me with a high pitched voice so I kick him under the table.

It's 3.15 and Jughead and I are waiting in front of the school for the others to come so that we could grab something to eat at pops. Sweet pea, fangs and other serpents come outside and stand with us. "How was your day babe?" I give sweet pea a small peck on the lips. "This Reggie was pissing me off all day" he exhales annoyed "anyway we're going to the whyte whyrm, let's go" he takes my hand but I don't start walking. He turns around and waits for my explanation
