Archie p.o.v:
We get in the car to go to my house. While we are driving I realize that this weekend is prom. And I'm planning on asking Veronica to go with me, but I have to have to the perfect way of doing it. I decide that I'm gonna sing a song to her.
"Archie we're here." She said to me and I zoned back into reality.
"Oh great." I said jumping out of the car and running straight to the garage.
"Archie what are you doing." She asked me while I was running.
"I gotta do something important." I said while still running. Veronica went inside the house and I finally made it to the garage. I grabbed my guitar quickly and started playing the song that i was gonna sing to her. It was the perfect song.
I finish practicing and go into the house with Veronica. I couldn't find her in the kitchen or the living room so I go upstairs Into my room and see her on my bed on her phone texting someone.
"Who you texting?" I asked sitting next to her. She quickly turned her phone so I couldn't see it.
"Babe, just let me see who you are texting." I said seriously and looking at her.
"It's none of your business who I'm texting." Veronica said to me and turned off her phone. I snatched her phone and luckily I knew her password.
"No archie!" She yelled to me. But I quickly ran into the bathroom and locked me inside. I unlock her phone and go to messages.

"Lol stop cutie!" I said as I read the messages out loud.
"You're the cute one." The guy texted.
"Oml I love you babe." She texted.
"I love you too." He said.
I started to become really sweaty and my palms became really clammy. I shook it off and tried to stay as calm as possible. I calmly opened the bathroom door and walked into my room.
"Arch?" Veronica said standing up from my bed wiping her tears.
"What?" He said throwing her her phone back. She caught it and realized he read the messages with the guy.
"Arch, let me explain." She said to him walking towards him.
"No. It kinda looks like what I think it is. Correct myself, what I KNOW it is." He said walking backwards from her a little.
"Archie, Just please let me explain." She said to him crying and and touching his face with her hands.
"I said no, so it's a no." Archie said lightly pushing her hands off his face.
"Why and how are you so calm about this." Veronica asked.
"Because Veronica, well for one I saw this coming, for two, I'm used to it, and I'm so mad right now that I can't be mad." He said to her lookin away
"Why are you so mad if you saw it coming?" She asked sitting on my bed.
"Because I went to the garage to pick out a song to sing to you for prom and I found it. But now I can't use it." He says to her.
"Arch....no" she said crying again.
"Arch....yes." He said walking out of his room and into the kitchen to get a drink.
Veronica walks down the stairs and opens the front door to reveal Betty outside waiting.
"Wait veronica." I said to her.
"Hold on Betty." Veronica said to her.
"Alright." She said to her.
"Yes Archie?" She said to him with a little hope in her voice.
"If you couldn't figure it out, we're over." Archie said to her. Veronica nodded slightly with a tear rolling down her face and walked out the house, since the door was already open.
"Wait did y'all just break up?" Betty asked Veronica.
"Yea.." She said looking down at the pavement.
"Why?" Betty asked her
"Because I was texting one of my best friends and he asked me to teach him out to flirt so I was helping him and Archie got my phone and read them.."
"And he thinks you were cheating on him," Betty finishes Veronica's sentence.
"It's all my fault." Veronica said to her hugging her and crying in her arms.
"No it's not. It's the guy's" Betty said hugging her back.
"And the worst part was that he was planning on singing to me and ask me to prom." Veronica said crying more
"How do you know." She asked
"He told me. And he was super calm about the whole thing." She said to Betty.
"I don't get why he would be so calm. You were his first ever girlfriend, if I was him I would be pissed."
"Well thanks Betty, that just makes me more upset."
"Sorry Veronica." She said hugging her.
"Can I just go home?" She asked her.
"Sure. I'll walk you there." Betty said

Narrator:
Betty and Veronica Walked to the pembrooke in silence. They finally arrived. They hugged and Veronica went inside. Betty decided to go check on Archie and see how he doing.

Archie's p.o.v:
After Veronica left I went to the room. I layed on my bed and thought about life. I decided to do something that'll change my whole life forever.  I went to the bathroom and opened the medicine cabinet. I grabbed the medicine.

Betty's p.o.v:
I got to Archie's house and knocked on the door but there was no answer. I keep knocking and knocking until I gave up and opened the door. I couldnt find Archie anywhere so the last place I checked was the bathroom. I opened the bathroom door and saw something absolutely horrific.
"ARCH!?" I yelled and ran up to him
