The English Teacher

Part Eighty

Toni's POV

"How are we gonna do this again?" Cheryl asked. Kevin rolled his eyes.

"We are just gonna sneak over there and quickly talk to her." He said.

"So nobodies getting hurt?" Cheryl asked. He shook his head.

"No, not yet." Cheryl smiled.

"Babe, nobodies getting hurt at all. Other than Betty's pretty little heart." I said.

"Oh, how much I love you." Cheryl said and kissed me. I kissed back.

"Hey, Juliet and Juliet." Jughead said and we looked at him. "Cool it. We're still at school." He said. Cheryl rolled her eyes.

"Oh, shut it, hobo." She said. I smiled and laughed a little.

"All of you shut it!" Kevin said. "Now we have to meet

After school

The school day went on as normal and as if nothing was wrong. But we all knew something was wrong. Betty wasn't at school. Which was weird considering she never misses school.

We all met up at Pop's for a quiet get together. We stayed there until it was about nine-thirty.

"Okay, guys. We've waited long enough. Let's go." Kevin said.

"Won't Betty be there?" I asked.

"Yeah, and since when did you become our boss?" Cheryl asked. Here we go.

"Betty may or may not be there. And at lunch when somebody started to get onto us." He said. Cheryl rolled her eyes. "Now come on. Before it's to late to save her."

"Fine. Let's go." We all got up and left Pop's. We got to Veronica's and it seemed pretty normal on the outside.

"Uhh, guys how are we gonna get in?" Jughead asked and we got out of the car. The door was wide open.

"Guess we don't need to worry about that." I said. We all slowly walked inside.

"Okay, spread around. See if we can find something to get rid of her." Kevin said. I had only one thought on my mind.

"Uhh, guys aren't we worried about how quiet it is?" I asked.

"No, they're probably asleep. So be very quiet." He said and we spread around the house. Cheryl and Kevin went upstairs. Jughead found a basement and went down there. I stayed on the main floor, trying to be as quiet as possible. Jughead came back upstairs. I looked at him.

"Anything?" I asked. He shook his head.

"No, nothing." He said. "Damnit!" Then Cheryl and Kevin came downstairs maybe as loud as possible.

"Hey, be quiet will you?!" I said. Kevin shook his head.

"No need." He said.

"What do you mean?" Jughead asked.

"They're not up there." Cheryl said.

"What do you mean they're not up there?" I asked.

"I mean it's empty. Like nobodies been here." I sighed and over at the table.

"Wait what the hell?" I muttered.

"What is it, TT?" Cheryl asked.

"It's a note. And it's from Betty. I think it was to Veronica." I said.

"Well, what's it say?" Jughead asked. I took a quick glance at him then the note again. "I love you, don't worry about me. - Love Betty" I said.

"What the hell does that mean?" Kevin asked. I shrugged.

"I don't know." Then a phone started ringing. We looked around and Cheryl found it sitting on the couch.

"It's Betty." She said.

"Answer it!" I pushed and she did and put it on speaker.

"Betty!"

"Cheryl? Why the hell do you have Veronica's phone?" She asked.

"No reason. Where the hell are you and Veronica?" Cheryl asked.

"What do you mean where are we? I'm by myself. Veronica should be at the house."

"She's not!" I said.

"Oh, you're there too. Who else is there?"

"Just Kevin and Jughead. Where the hell are you?" Cheryl said.

"I'm somewhere. And what to you mean Veronica's not there?" Betty asked kind of worriedly.

"She's just not here. Do you have any idea on where she could be?" I asked. She sighed and was quiet for a second.

"Meet me by Sweet Water River in ten." She said and quickly hung up. We all looked at each other.

"We better go." Jughead said. We all nodded and left.
