Tossing. Turning. Whispering. Moaning. Anger. Fear. Sadness. Jughead screaming. Nightmare. Hot. Cold. Need Jughead.

That's about all that went through Archie's mind while he was trying to figure out his nightmare and why they all ended with Jughead screaming. Archie looked at the clock and groaned. 2 am. Sighing, Archie got up, threw on some clothes, and drove to Pop's where he knew Jughead would be. He walked in and quickly scanned the room. He shot Pop a scared look and he just pointed to the table where they always sat. Archie raised his eyebrow but walked over to find Jughead sleeping on his computer. Sighing with relief, he paid Pop for Jughead's meal and picked up Jughead. He carried him into his car and when he got home, brought him to his room.

'Hmm. Do I risk waking him up and him leaving by blowing up the air mattress? Or do I let him sleep with me?' He wondered

'The bed's big enough. We'll be fine.' He reasoned

He carefully took off Jughead's beanie and leather jacket so that he wasn't too warm before lying him down on his bed. Sighing, he stripped of his clothes once more and lied down next to Jughead.

'He looks so cute without his beanie.' He thought

'Wait'


'WHAT???'

'DID I JUST THINK THAT MY BEST FRIEND WAS CUTE????'

'It's just exhaustion messing with my mind.' He reasoned with himself. Once he calmed down he turned away from Jughead and drifted off into a peaceful sleep.

*Time Skip to around 4 am.* (Jughead's POV)

'It's warm. When did Pop's get so warm?'

'Wait.... this isn't Pop's!'

Jughead opened his eyes to see a shirtless Archie cuddling him.

'How did I get here???' He thought tiredly

'Wait a minute.'

He looked over at the ground where Archie's clothes and his beanie and leather jacket lied.

'IS THAT MY BEANIE???'

Jughead looked down at himself to find that he had lost his leather jacket and that the warm feeling on his head was in fact, Archie's chin.

'Oh my god I am going to kill you for this Archibald.' He thought angrily

'Well,' He reasoned, 'At least it's warm.'

Jughead nestled back into Archie and found that in his sleep, Archie somehow managed to wrap his arms around him.

'When did those get there?' Jughead thought, blushing lightly

'Oh well. Better than sleeping alone at Pop's.' He thought. The corners of his mouth lifted a little as he cuddled back into Archie, smelling the comforting scent of his body wash and cologne.

Jughead always knew that he was gay so, deep down, he knew that he shouldn't do this. Especially since he had yet to come out to anyone besides Kevin, whom he had sworn to secrecy. But the comforting feeling of being held combined with the feeling of being this close to his best friend just made him want to stay. Closing his eyes, Jughead fell into a peaceful sleep, not worrying about what the morning would bring.
