Archie was a man of many ladies and many men.

But, amongst his many exes, there was one that he was always hung up about. Veronica was a great girlfriend and the sex banged but there was someone he longed for more, a spark he vaguely remembers and the pouring rain that puts out his blazing fire.

He longed for you.

You and he were the It couple, before Veronica, before Jason's murder. It was a strong relationship, have their ups and downs, someone who loved him for his personality and looks because he wasn't as ripped as he was before summer. You were his everything as he was with you. But, news travels fast that you were moving across seas and living in France, you didn't know when you were coming back and you knew that the distance would eventually break you two apart.

"If things are still there, maybe we are meant to be, Arch," You softly spoke, running your hand through his hair.

"I don't want you to leave, (Y/n)."

"I know, babe, I don't want to go."

No one spoke of you when school started, people missed your stupid grins and loud proclamation that you adored Archie Andrews. They missed you, the ball of energy, the person that screams the loudest during a football game or clap the biggest during music performances.

Everyone just made no effort to mention you because your presence was missing, the atmosphere was quiet.

When Archie got with Veronica, most people knew it wasn't going to last because Archie still takes a moment to look at the trophy winners cabinet to look at your smiling face, a victorious win for the water polo team.

Archie smiled when he was with Veronica, but he grinned when he was with you.

Archie often looks to Betty and Jug's relationship, remembering the adventures you and him would venture off to. Archie often stays awake at night remembering small details, he hides photos and love notes away from Veronica.

"You have to move on, Archie," Betty spoke with their windows open and they spoke across.

"I miss him,"

"But, what about Veronica?"

Archie's favourite moment with you, or at least the one that stood out to him the most. The one that repeats over and over again in his head. Was the night before you left to live across the pond, a night you last shared as a couple.

You were lying on his shoulder, the midnight moon looming over you and shining through the small parting of the curtains. Your arm was slowly coming numb as it comfortably wraps over Archie's shoulders, at your hand was held by his hand.

His head rested on your shoulder as you both stare at the ceiling, the silence was calming as the only noise to be heard was the soft breathing that matched the occupants of the bedroom.

"With you, I'm comfortable. I know I can talk about anything or sit by your side in complete silence. You see me at my worst but only talk about my best. I can be happy about my biggest achievements, while you know my deepest insecurities. I'm comfortable with you, and you should know that means everything to me."
