Half

Chapter 35:

The next morning, the day of the war. I woke up and looked at my phone; 9:00 AM, which wasn't that bad. I looked at my left ring to see the dazzling ring that was still shining brightly. It was real life, not a dream.

I looked over at the person in bed beside me, him and his beauty, he wasn't my boyfriend anymore but my fiancee, and it was amazing to call him by his new title. I rolled to the side, laying half of my front on his back, his warmth beneath me like I was laying on a heating pad. I wrapped my arms around his middle and rested my head on his right shoulder blade. He groaned as he felt the weight added to his sleepy body.

I got off of him and laid down on my designated side of the bed.

"Good morning, my bride." Jughead chuckled.

"Good morning, Jug." He kissed my cheek as we looked at each other for several moments.

"Today's the day." I sighed, the reminder adding more weight to my shoulders.

"Sadly, we better win." I said, slipping on Jughead's hoodie and a pair of my baggy sweatpants that I left in one of Jughead's drawers. 

"With you, I'm sure we will." He smirked, classic Jughead.

I put my pants on and walked into my own room where Pea stood in front of the mirror and was putting in his hair gel that gave him his signature hair style.

"You ready for the big day?" Pea asked while still combing his now gelled hair.

"As ready as I'll ever be." I said, sitting at my vanity and starting to apply my signature makeup look. I put on my hot pink, dark brown and black eyeshadow on my eyes and put some foundation and powder all over my face in an even manner. Lastly, I put on my mascara and I was ready to go on for the day. I went to my closet and put on a navy blue mesh top with my black bralette underneath. I slid on my black ripped mesh tights on with my black high waisted shorts on with my black studded belt on top. I put on my black heels, the one with the spikes in case I needed an extra weapon. I put my hair up into a tight ponytail that hung high from my head, I looked at my reflection, thinking about the events that won't be too far from now. Thinking about each of the people fighting with us.

Cheryl Blossom- The archery master. She never misses when she has her bow and arrow with her. 

Toni Topaz- She's more of a smack talker, rather than a fighter. However she is one of the few girls I know who aren't afraid of getting her hands dirty.

Sweet Pea- A male version of myself, he fights, he yells and is overall intimidating.

Fangs Fogerty- He didn't get his name because he isn't a biter. He is not afraid to bite anyone who gets within a few feet of him. 

Jughead Jones- The bystander. He's not much of a fighter, though he does get involved but mostly he likes to pick up details for his novel and future sleuthing opportunities.

Archie Andrews- The boy next door, wholesome Riverdale citizen through and through. He hardly has fighting experience, but he joined the school's wrestling team just to try to impress Hiram Lodge.

Reggie Mantle- The biggest douchebag in Riverdale. One of the stars of the Bulldog football team, he's tall, and surely can knock out the smaller Ghoulies.

Kevin Keller- Everyone's best friend. He has some built up aggression from his nasty breakups with Joaquin- an MIA Serpent turned Ghoulie. He does fight better than Archie, who would've thought?

Lastly, Veronica Lodge, the Bulldog queen who is no match to my Serpent queen. She doesn't like getting her hands dirty simply because it'll damage her expensive clothes. She has the money, and it's important she's on our side because her arrogant asshole of a father is on the other side.
