The Serpent king

chapter 9-have i lost her?

Archie P.O.V
It's been a week 1 week since veronica lied to me and to say I have changed was an understatement I was now fully in with the serpents.no question about it. I still had my soft side it was just fading as the days continued.

Every one in the school was scared of me even some of the serpents were and now jughead and my dad had given me the respect I needed and deserved but one thing I didn't have and would never had was veronica.

The one person who actually liked me for me the person who didn't want me to change but that was all gone now she had lied to me and to add on to that her father hiram lodge killed my father in cold blood. Yes you heard me he killed him now i hated my father entil well a week ago when he started to clean himself up and he stopped drinking all for me and jughead i not saying he was a saint but he was still my dad.

Now without him I just felt like a lost boy who had been given a world of pressure and responsibility that responsibility being the serpents.

It was now a Monday and as I walked into school I got glares from every direction.All of them whispering about what they thought I had done or who they thought I was when they didn't know me the only person who really knew me now was jughead and ..well veronica.

  like I said that friendship or whatever it was is and will always be dead in the water I can't look at her knowing her father killed my dad with his own gun or that she lied to me.

What else was she lying about maybe she knew about my father death who am I kidding of course she did she knows the ins and out of her family she is nothing but a rich bitch.

I just continue to walk through the hallway with my thoughts racing through my brain I then entered the student lounge and saw the Bulldogs in one corner with reggie and veronica flirting.

Should I refraise that reggie flirting and veronica ignoring him.On the other side the serpents along with jughead,Betty and cheryl.My eyes nearly popped out of my head cheryl blossom with the serpents?

I walk over trying to cover my confusion.
"Why is cheryl here"i whisper to Betty and jughead
"I really have no clue"jughead replies as confused as me
"You two are so dumb her and toni are together so she is hanging out with us"betty says emphasising the dumb part as I sit down next to them I get approached by reggie mantle.
"Jones"
"Which one"me and jughead laugh ever since my dads passing me and jughead have grown a new bond the bond that twins are supposed to have
"You archie"
"Yes"i say in a innocence tone
"You little rat you an your snakes robbed my dads business and took all of our money"
"I did nothing of the sort Reginald must have the wrong guy"
"That's it" he says charging at me.

The serpents moving to ethier side to make a clear path for him which he takes and misses me completely falling over in the process
"You ok down there bud you look a little um what's the word" i say with sarcasm running through my voice
"Angry,annoyed..."jughead lists replying to my question
"Oh jug he cant be feeling any of those he just a jock"by the time I finished my sentence reggie was up and was ready to fight me.

However today of all days did not want to fight so I stepped aside again and let the serpents deal with it this earning me dirty looks from every student that attended riverdale high.

  One person I never thought would look disappointed was veronica she had anger and disappointment all in one look and in all honesty it killed me whatever she thought ment the world to me she ment the world to me.

I hate to say it but she was and is my soft underbelly every serpent has one jug has Betty,toni had now found cheryl,fangs was his mum and sweetpea was josie they had a secret relationship.

I had never had one entil I met the raven haired princess standing in front of me.I got up to leave so i could get some space from everyone including the serpents but i never got that piece and quit as i was dragged into a cupboard by and anonymous person who i later found was Veronica .

"What are you doing you idiot"
She says with anger running through her words
In reply i just gave her a dumbfounded look but i knew what she ment i was just scared of what would happen to us.

who am i kidding there isn't and us.

"Oh i dont know maybe you robbing reggie's dad's business,you just taking the serpents on,you told me you wouldn't do that"she says with hurt in her eyes

  How can you say that you said we were friends and last time i checked friendsdont lie to one anotheror does that just imply to others in you world also you hate reggie he abusesyou day and night for the serpentsi took them on as they are my family and unlike others they didn't lie to me"with that i walked out and left her there.

After School:
I was currently in my trailer writing music that would later end up in the bin i couldn't get her of my mind.

She was all i wanted but the more i want her the more i dont she lied and she did so easily yet she paints me as the villain but she is so...perfect i am just mixed i dont know what to do.

My thoughts were interrupted when the door opened with someone walking in but i didn't look up i thought it was jughead
"Archie"

It was her it was veronica
