Veronica's POV:
Jughead sits next to us and waits for the food we ordered for us. He sits opposite Betty with her hands on the table. I can see those looks as they alternate between each other and the pink color that creeps on Betty's cheeks. She looks so happy, just the way I want her to be. She deserved some happiness in her life now that Polly is God knows where, her mother controls her as if she were ten years old and after how things went between her and Archie at the party after the school dance. And don't even get me started on Jason's murder. I admit that New York was messed up but who knew a small idyllic town like Riverdale would be this fucked up? Not me anyway. I thought it would be a little more ... boring and a little less murder in the picture.
"... and then I had to run to make time for the lesson," says Jughead, causing Betty to let out a small giggle. They are made for each other!
He likes nerdy things ... she also likes such things. They must be a couple soon. Because then Betty gets happy and she can stay away from Archie.
"Why were you late to the lesson? You never tell me before we were ... interrupted before" Betty's voice is soft and smooth, a bit like honey or syrup.
Jughead smiles shyly "I'm sorry for that, I didn't think she would actually wait for me. She always promises to arrive on time but usually be late"
"Oh, it's okay Juggie I was just a little surprised to see her. I haven't met her since before the summer break" replies Betty forgiving although I can see she was a little disappointed. Who's talking about them?
"So who are we really talking about?" I interrupt. I should have asked Archie to come with me so that I didn't have to act the third wheel. But Archie has been so absent from me, from everyone. But he has been busy, but both his music and his football's practices.
"My girlfriend Viper" he replies. What the fuck? What nerd is he really with? It is surely the silent girl he is a partner with in the chemistry class. Although I have never heard of any girl with that name.The little bell above the entrance sounds and a girl with a big brown coat over her.
"When you talk about the Devil," Betty whispers under her breath. She marches towards us without showing any feelings.
"You would have been here fifteen minutes ago," says Jughead as a greeting. She undresses her coat and places it beside him. She shows off her short mini skirt and black top.
"Sorry then, I'm a bit late and didn't know it was the north side club meeting either. " she says poisonously.
"Hi, my name is Veronica and you must be Viper" I say as nice as I can only to the obviously upset girl. I stretch my hand towards her but she does not receive it so I let it embarrassed fall to my lap again.
