a/n: this story doesn't have a quote to go along with it, because i found an idea on pinterest that was originally on tumblr. it also doesn't really have a viewpoint so, yeah i really love it, so let me know if i should a part 2! :)
betty got dressed in her beautiful soft colored pink dress her boyfriend archie had gotten her last week. she then slips her white wedges on her small feet, then does a little twirl in the mirror. she smiles at herself, feeling extra beautiful for their date tonight. her golden blonde hair was curled and draping just on her shoulders. she had done her makeup in a neutral tone.
she wasn't one for having the need to be the center of attention.
after she was dressed and ready, she grabs her nude coat and puts it on. she then grabs her nude clutch to match, and grabs her phone and car keys from the small kitchen counter. she was finally ready for archie to ask her to move in with him. and she was finally ready to say yes. she quickly fixed a few golden flyaways, before happily skipping out the door to go to the restaurant she had picked for their date.
betty arrived at the restaurant and looked around. she was surprised that she didn't see archie there already. she just shrugged her shoulders and slipped off her coat as she sat in their usual booth. she then got out her phone and left him a text just to let him know she was here. [ just got here. can't wait to see you :) ] she hit send then patiently started to wait for him.
she then went ahead and ordered their usually drinks: a sweet tea with lemon for her, and large coke for him. about 20 minutes passed, and he hasn't shown up yet. she wasn't worried, but she was starting to get a little nervous. of course he would show up.
he's never blew off one of their special date nights, and betty eventually started to get nervous.
another 30 minutes have passed, and now she's starting to feel more upset than worried. she was on her third sweet tea, and she could practically feel the people giving her apologetic looks. she sighed then picked her phone back up, about to text him that she was heading back to her apartment, until she saw that someone had just taken the empty seat in front of her.
"sorry i'm late, babe, traffic was awful." the man explains quite loudly as he sits across from her.
he then quietly adds, leaning a little closer to her so
no one would hear, "i'm jughead. just go with it, okay? whoever didn't bother to show up is a huge jerk."
betty was undecided, but made the choice to just go with what he said. he seemed like a really sweet guy, and it was so nice of him to sit here with her and save her from the embarrassing looks. plus, he was actually really cute. his ocean blue eyes were practically shining as they talked about the most random topics. she could also see some dark curls peek out of his crown shaped beanie which she thought was odd, but extremely adorable at the same time. and she couldn't bare to forget his smile. it was just so happy. and also adorable. his laugh too. gosh, she really needs to focus on the conversation.
afterwards, he paid the check for the two drinks she ordered and the fries he also ordered because he just had to have something to eat. he even walked her back to her car, and she was smiling like a 16 year old girl again. this was actually an amazing non-planned, on the spot date. once they reached betty's car, he smiled at her like a cute little goofball, then decided to ask her a question.
"so betty, would you like to go on a date with me? maybe planned this time?" he asks with the smile still plastered on his face along with a small laugh.
she thought about for a second before remembering everything she loved about him. his dark curls under his crown shaped beanie, his humorous personality, and of course his smile and laugh. she cojldnever forget that. then her mind lingered to archie for a second. what kind of guy screws a girl over and doesn't even bother to show up for their 1 year anniversary? "screw archie andrews." she thought to herself. then she smiled a soft smile looking up at the handsome boy.
"sounds like a plan, jughead."
