THE DEAL

Chapter 29.

Betty's POV

Everything has been fine so far, Jughead and I have been great but Veronica and I not so much, she betrayed my trust.

I understand that she wanted what's best for me but she didn't ask me about what I wanted.

It's best if we stayed apart for a while because I need to gather my thoughts.

I am at work and Jughead took a day off, it's weird actaully, it's the first time he actually takes a day off.

Our relationship was very complicated at first but now it's stable, and I really hope it stays that way.

The company still doesn't know about us dating so it's for the best, I am actually job hunting so I can quit it here and finally we don't have to keep our relationship a secret.

Suddenly someone opened the door and I stood up as quick as possible, when I looked up I saw that it was Justin, I exhaled and said "what do you want now?"

He took a deep breath and said, "I'm sorry Betty but I'm afraid that I have to fire you for not following the rules."

I was shocked, how did he know?

"W-what do you mean?" I said trying to hold in my anger, "You know what I mean, dating one of your coworkers is prohibited, and all of the company got an email of you and Jughead kissing, I can't keep you nor Jughead here anymore, I am sorry, please pack your things and leave."

I stood in silence, shocked from what I am hearing, but at the same time I understood that I broke the rules and now I am paying for my actions.

I smiled at Justin and thanked him for letting me work here even though it was hell.

When I started to pack my things Jughead came into the office and hugged me, I was startled but I hugged him back and giggled.

"What are you doing?" I asked, he took a deep breath and pulled away stroking my head and answered "I just came to check up on you after hearing that we are both fired."

I chuckled and said, "Don't worry, I am much better when I saw you."

He smiled and kissed my forehead, he slowly took a few steps away from me and put his hands in the pocket and said, "I actually found a job."

I was surprised and excited and hugged him as quickly as possible.

He chuckled and then said, "There is a person who wants to see you."

I turned around and my face instantly changed expressions, it was Veronica.

She was slightly smiling and waved, "Hey....", Jughead kissed my cheek and said that he will be packing his things.

I crossed my arms across my chest and took a deep breath and asked her what she was doing here.

She looked at the ground and said, "I am really sorry betty, I know that what I did is horrible and I hope you forgive, I just want us to stop fighting."

I took another deep breath and quickly hugged her, after all she is my only friend who cares about me.

She hugged back and said, "I hope you forgive me."

I lauged and said, "Well I can't stay mad at my best friend forver."

A FEW HOURS LATER

"So yeah I got fired for that."I said and looked at Veronica who clearly was irritated about the rules and said, "Why the hell does this company care about the two of you dating?!"

"I bet Justin is jealous thats why-" I cut her off and sat down next to her, "Actually I agree with you with the first part, but not the jealous one."
