Mila groaned, rolling over further into Jughead's chest hearing a phone ring. "Turn it off." She grumbled. Suddenly a large thud was heard, she snapped her head up seeing Betty on the ground, grabbing for her phone. Jughead looked up as well, groaning and wrapping his arms around Mila's waist. 

"What the hell's going on?" Mila yawned, running her hands through Jughead's hair. 

"We fell asleep..." Betty mumbled, worry laced in her voice. 

"Obviously, we were exhausted." Jughead stated, eyes still closed. 

"She's gonna kill me, oh my god." 

"Who?" 

"My mom."  Betty whined, "I-i have to go." Betty said, shaking her head and packing up her stuff frantically. "I'll see you guys later." She stated, running out of the trailer. Mila huffed, laying back down. 

"Can we stay like this all day?" Mila asked, eyes closed. 

"I wish, but we do have things to do. Come on." Jughead said, sitting up and pulling her with him. "Coffee?" Mila looked up to him with a knowing look and he laughed, "Forget i asked." 
Mila slid off the couch and started to clean up. She started to stack extra books and extra copy's of the cipher on the table. She noticed a few that weren't hers or Jugheads and she tilted her head. 

"I think Betty left some of her books here." She called out, flipping through them. She shrugged to herself, putting them closer to her, she picked up another and then a piece of paper fluttered out. She picked it up and unfolded it. Her eyes skimmed over the words and her eyes widened. 

"How much did she leave?" He asked, walking into the room with two cups off coffee. "Hey, are you okay?" He asked, noticing her worried expression. "Angel? What is it?"  He grabbed the piece of paper from her hands and his eyes skimmed over it as well. "Holy crap..." He mumbled. 

"This is why she wanted to finish the cipher, We have to help her, the Black Hood's watching her." She said frantically. 

"Okay, okay yeah, come on."  The couple quickly got ready and hurried out of the small trailer.

Mila banged on the door, waiting for the blonde to open the door. She pulled her jacket closer to her as she looked around. Finally the door opened and Betty looked at them with a frown. 

"Hey, what are you guys doing here?" She asked warily, looking around. 

"Can we come in?" Jughead asked with a small smile. Betty nodded, opening the door wider and letting them in. "So uh, when you left this morning, you forgot some of your books." Jughead said handing them back to her. 

"Is that what you guys came all the way over here for? Books?" Betty asked with a small chuckle. 

"No, i read something pretty... strange. Let me read it to you." Mila said, pulling out the paper, "  'Betty, your words at the Jubilee inspired me, the towns sinners must show their contrition. If not, there will be more suffering and bloodshed, enclosed is a cipher. It details where i will punish the next sinner, It's a test. Only you may solve it, Betty.'" Mila read, looking up to the blonde like she had just seen a ghost. "Why didn't you tell us?"
