"I mean... YOU can't punch your mom, Jug. No one ever said anything about me doing it." I say to Jug as he, Sweet pea, Betty and I sit in the bunker, recapping over the past few weeks.
"No, Nova. You're not punching my mom. She'd stab you." Jug chuckles.
"Hey, I've been stabbed before. I lived once, I'll probably live again." I say.
"You were stabbed?" Sweet pea asks.
"Oh, yeah. Joaquin's little brother took to Arch and I with a knife." I say with a chuckle.
"Nova you frighten me how casual you are with these things." Betty shakes her head.
"So, let us recap." Jughead begins. "Fangs told Evelyn literally all of Nova's traumas."
"You and Betty set fire to the trailer because your drug lord mother stole it to do her dirty work." I add.
"Literally half of Riverdale including Kevin and Mr Weatherbee joined the farm" Sweet pea says.
"About that... Sweet pea, I don't know how to tell you this." Betty says gently.
"Tell me what?" He asks.
Betty sighs, taking a blue folder out of her bag, sliding it over to Sweet pea. He takes the photos out to reveal Fangs being initiated into the farm with Kevin.
"What am I looking at?" Sweet pea asks.
"We think Fangs' is getting involved in the farm..." Betty says softly.
"A- Are you sure?" He asks sadly, I take his hand. Fangs' is his best friend so to watch him get caught up in this cult shit must crush him.
"I'm sorry, Sweet pea." Betty hums.
"Well that's just another thing to add to our list of problems." Sweet pea huffs.
"I'm sorry Pea." I sigh. "Maybe we can talk to him before it's too late."
"Yeah, maybe." Sweet pea sighs, rubbing his thumb over my hand.
"At least we can cross you two off the list of problems." Jughead chuckles, pointing at Sweet pea and I.
"Finally." Betty agrees.
"Hey, we got there in the end." I laugh
"How did everyone react?" Betty asks.
"No one was surprised, Archie and Fred were relieved." I hum.
"We haven't been too PDA about it, still getting used to actually being back together." Sweet pea admits.
"If we know anything about breaking up, you'll be stronger in the long run for it." Betty admits.
"I think so too." I say, Sweet pea nods in agreement.
"So, Betty's going to a farm open night tonight, that should be... Interesting." Jughead informs us.
"Call me if you need saving, B." I say.
"I think V's going to accompany me, I'll be fine." Betty chuckles.
"Ahh, B & V back at it, huh?" I smile, it's been a while since those two had time together.
"You know it." She chuckles.
"So, my question is, do I get to be in the deputy team?" I ask Jughead. "I know you guys have training later."
"I dunno, Nova. You'd be the only girl-"
"When has that ever bothered me, or you, Jug?" I ask. "Plus, I'm probably more put together than half of them."
