Queen of the Serpents- [Sweet Pea] // Riverdale

*Natalie's POV

"Hey Pop," I greeted the older man.

"Good morning Natalie," he smiled. "What brings you here?"

"I actually came to order some breakfast." I smiled at him.

"Well geez, Natalie. You haven't came by for breakfast in ages."

"Yeah, I know. I'm sorry. I've just been busy."

"Now let's see if I can remember your order." He scratched his head making me laugh. "2 strawberry pancakes with whip, scrambled eggs, sausage, and a hash brown."

"Yup, that's the one." I laughed. "But let's double that order." I said remembering that Sweet Pea was back at my trailer sleeping.

"You got it Natalie. It'll be out soon."

"Thank you, Pop." I nodded and looked around the diner for a place to sit.

"What the fuck," I muttered to myself as I walked to the end of the diner.

"What the hell is going on here," I crossed my arms.

"I'll see you later, Jughead." She got up from the table. "Natalie." She smirked and walked away.

"What the hell were you doing with Peabody?" I slid into the booth across from him.

"Nothing, alright." Jughead avoided eye contact with me.

"Jug," I breathed out. "I told you to stay away from her."

"What was I supposed to do, Nat? It's my fault they hurt him." I looked at him confused.

"Jug, what are you talking about?" I leaned onto the table.

"She said that he got into some trouble with a few ghoulies." He spilled. "It's my fault Natalie. I should have never got Archie involved."

"Hey Juggie," I placed my hand over his. "Don't blame yourself. We'll figure this out. I promise." But he had this look of guilt written across his face.

"I need to do this delivery for her." He rushed. I put my head in my hands and exhaled loudly. How many times? How many times do I have to keep saving Jughead's ass? "She said it was a one time delivery." He tried to lighten the situation. "My dad, he ca-"

"Just shut the hell up," I slammed my hand on the table. "Just let me think," I sighed. "Where's the drop off?"

"Greendale. She said I needed a car. I was gonna ask Archie or maybe even Kevin if I could borr-"

"No," I shook my head. "Ask Archie. Asking Kevin is like asking Sheriff Keller. Besides Archie owes us for that little stunt he pulled."

"Yeah okay." He replied.

"Okay well then it's settled. I'll meet you at your trailer and then we could head out."

"What? No. I'm not tak-"

"Natalie." I looked over Jughead's shoulder. "Your order is ready." I gave Pop a smile and a small wave.

"I didn't ask for your permission. End of." I got out of the booth and made my way over to Pop.

"Thank you Pop." I smiled and grabbed the bag of food.

"Pea," I whispered shaking him a bit, but he wouldn't budge. "Pea," but I got nothing in return. I smirked to myself and decided to straddle him. I began to leave small kisses down his neck.

"I could get used to this," I looked up at him.

"Oh shut up," I hit his bare chest. "Now come on," I started to get off of him but he firmly placed his hands on my sides.
