Will's POV

After leaving the cemetery, Sweet Pea and I headed back to my trailer. I don't remember if Sweet Pea left or when, but I was exhausted and crashed on my bed as soon as I got home.

I woke up the next morning in my clothes from yesterday. I went out my room and on my way to the bathroom I saw Sweet Pea asleep on my couch. I looked at him for a few minutes, his raven black hair swept across his forehead and his feet rested on the armrest as he was too tall for my tiny couch. I went in the bathroom to shower, brush my hair and apply light makeup. I got dressed into a pair of black jeans, a white t-shirt, my black combat boots and my serpent jacket. When I was completely ready I went out into my kitchen to have breakfast.

"Sweet Pea. Sweet Pea wake up." I said as I gently shook Sweet Pea awake. "We're going to be late for school." He eventually woke up, and sat up. "Hey, morning." I said. "Morning." he replied. "I made us breakfast." I said and I handed him a plate of toast with butter. "Thanks." he said. We sat at the small dining table eating breakfast before we would set off for school. 

"I want to ask you something." I said to Sweet Pea. He looked up at me with his dark eyes. "What?" he replied. "This might be a bit fast but..." I trailed off. "Do you want to be my boyfriend? Like offically." I asked nervously. He smiled at me. "I'd love to." he said. He put his had under the table and I took it. He then leaned over the table and kissed me.

We sat at the serpent table at lunch in the cafetorium. We were laughing and joking and I suddenly realised, where's Toni? "Do any of you know where Toni is?" I asked Sweet Pea and Fangs. "Giving a tour to the new kid." said Fangs. "Since when does Toni give tours?" I asked. "Since it's FP Jones' kid." said Sweet Pea. "Jughead Jones is at Southside High." I said, "Everything's changing." "Yeah." Sweet Pea said, and he took my hand. I smiled at him.

After school, we headed to the Red and Black room to get Toni to come to the quarry with us. "Topaz, lets bounce." said Sweet Pea when we entered the room. "Jones, you wanna come with. We're going down to the quarry." "I don't have my beach bod yet." Jughead said.

 "What? You'll ask for help from the serpents when you need it, but you won't hang with us?" Sweet Pea replied. "Don't come crawling to us, hat in hand, when some Ghoulie decides to earn his stripes by taking out FP Jones' kid." "Duly noted. Thank you, Sweet Pea. I appreciate what you and the Serpents have done for me and my dad. I do. But I'm done. Okay?" Jughead responded. "No more favors coming your way." 

Sweet Pea stepped forward as if he was about to punch him. "Hey, hey, he made up his mind, okay?" I said putting my hand to his chest to stop him. "Take the hint, Sweet Pea. He's just not that into you." said Toni. "Let's motor." Sweet Pea didn't stop looking at Jughead in the eye until we were out the door. "Catch you later, Jones." we heard Toni say and then she came out the room.

That night, all the teen serpents were at the quarry, partying. Everyone was dancing and drinking and music was blaring. 

"Why are we even having a party?" I asked Sweet Pea. I was sitting on his lap on an old armchair that had been dumped years ago. "I can't remember." he replied. "Toni mentioned that you left abruptly in english class after lunch. What happened?" I asked. "Well, I left because a Ghoulie was annoying me. Don't worry about it." he replied. "Okay."

I leaned in to kiss him, but he caught on quickly and kissed me passionately first. We sat there making out not caring who was watching. "Do you want to take this back to my trailer?" I whispered in his ear. 

Sweet Pea and I went to my trailer and I unlocked it. I locked the door behind us so not to be interupted. I turned to face him, and looked in his eyes. I leaned in and kissed him passionately. I jumped up and wrapped my legs around his waist. He pushed me against the wall and I hungrily pulled his jacket, then shirt off. I dumped my jacket on the floor, and Sweet Pea pulled my t-shirt off to reveal my scars. Sweet Pea noticed my scars and broke the kiss. 

"What happened?" he asked me. "My mom pushed me through a window." I replied. Sweet Pea rubbed his hands over them. I pulled him towards me and kissed him. I ran my fingers through his soft hair, and we each removed our jeans, then he carried me into the bedroom. 

He put me on the bed, and climbed on top of me. He kissed down my neck, then across my shoulder blades, and then my lips passionately.

Let's just say, we had a great time if you know what I mean.
