(Sweetpea's POV)

Blue and purple lights made the stage seem like a galaxy. I couldn't move.
Betty was wearing black lingerie which barely covered her body.
She walked to the pole and quickly turned her head around so she wouldn't look at anyone in the audience. Including me. I was desperate. I wanted her to go off that stage and give her my jacket, so that no one could see her beautiful body. But at the same time, I couldn't help but get nervous because she was so hot. Betty danced to a very sex appealing song and her movements were slow and soft.
Some people in the audience were cheering. The guys she played with earlier were staring at her and I heard one whisper: "Dang, she can play and dance? Ain't no complaints." My blood started boiling. I didn't want anyone else to look at her for another second but then the song ended.
For the first time she looked right at me and I turned my head away. I was so mad at her but also so extremely attracted to her.

Jughead Jones, the son of our leader, got on stage and gave Betty a jacket. "Welcome our newest member, Betty." Everyone cheered except for me. I tilted my head around because I felt her eyes on me. She was smiling. And for a second I forgot how mad I was and how I told her that we were just friends. In that moment I looked at her and I never wanted that smile to vanish again. And if the Serpents were the group that gave her that smile then for God's sake, she needed this. After a few minutes she came down the stage and everyone focused on their games again.
She came to me but we didn't say anything. We looked at each other.
"I think you should get changed," I said with a rough voice that indicated how turned on I was.
She grinned at me and then hugged me. Her cute little arms then pulled me into what would’ve been a really uncomfortable position if she wasn’t so warm that I enjoyed it.

Betty decided to get changed and then we left the Whyte Wyrm together. We weren't talking much until we arrived at Betty's house.
"I'm glad we're friends, Sweetpea," Betty said and I smiled at her. "Me too. And I enjoyed tonight. Although maybe you could do this dance thing just for me?" I laughed but if I was being honest, it was what I wanted. She blushed and chuckled as well.
"We'll see about that." And then once again she wrapped her arms around me. Around her I felt safe and loved and I tried to fight that urgent feeling coming in me. I slowly got out of her hug and put my hands on her cheek.
"Betty, I-" she put her finger on my mouth. "Shhhh. Don't talk or think about it. Just kiss me, please." And I did. Our lips connected in a longing kiss, finally reunited after a week. My blood was boiling, there were explosions of emotions in my body. I shivered as her hand reached for my neck to get me even closer to her and also control the kiss a little. Our tongues were dancing with each other.
I removed my hands from her cheeks and put them on her waist to pull her close. Our lips separated and I just hugged her. Our bodies were shaking.

For a few minutes we just stood there, hugging. She smelled like vanilla and butterflies. Like spring and summer. Like roses and daisies. Like the perfect girl would smell.

I let go of her and smiled at her once more before she went back into the house, leaving me outside. It was cold but my heart was warm. All because of her.
