oh no, she realized she didn't get to answer archie's calls because amie ate all the food.

she shakes in fear, her phone almost falling out of her hands but was caught by jug.
"Juliet, are you okay?"

snapping out of her trance, she looks at the boy so oblivious of the situation she's in. jughead takes the phone and looks at the caller

"i'm just gonna answer this for you" when the words leave his mouth, Juliet tries to get her phone back but he keeps on stepping back.

he's raising his hand in the air so the blonde can't get it.

he presses the answer button but before he speaks, Juliet covers jug's mouth and grabs his wrist so that she can talk.

she knows if she tries to take the phone from him, he'll just take it away again

"betts, why did you leave?" Juliet hears archie's voice and hangs up on him.

she removes both hands and takes the phone with the risk of it getting taken away from her again.

"who's "betts" ?" is what jug says when the hand from his mouth was removed.

Juliet scrambles for an answer in her head, then quickly says:
"i-it's just a......" as she tries to look for an answer she thinks of the obvious one

"-a nickname a-ar-archie calls me" betty lets out a breath and looks down, not even knowing that she was holding one.

he chuckles, "who's archie?"

shit, i actually forgot to tell him who archie is she thinks and looks up at him. "ummmm- he's the- he's-umm" and once again, Juliet scrambles.

"your fiancée?" he asks, even though he knows the answer.
"yea-" she gets interrupted by the police sirens behind her.

she turns around and expects the police to question her, for her husband's crimes but no, they just arrested a man for public urinating. sigh

"well, i have to go. wait- when do i start again?" betty say, turning around to talk to him.

"oh! um, at Saturday 8am"
betty smiles and hugs jug while grinning. jug just patted her back.

"well, i'm gonna need your number" betty said and jug lifted an eyebrow

"o-okay" he took out his phone, opened it with a passcode, and gave it to her in one minute.

she typed her number in his phone while multitasking and opening her phone and giving it to him

they waved goodbye and left each other with the knowledge of them meeting each other again.

it's been a day since betty left and archie has been angry since. what if betty found out? she can testify against him because they're not married.

it was his plan all along, to marry rich girl and when he actually does, he tells her about the crimes he did and blackmails her into not getting divorced, ever.

he clutches the phone so strong that maybe he could break the electronic. before he could do such a thing, veronica goes inside his office and puts down a glass of vodka on his desk

"i said tequila, how the hell did i get vodka, Ronnie?!" archie said while some steam was coming out of his ears, which were smaller than the average human.

"i'm so sorry, i'll get you tequila" ronnie said as she took the glass filled with vodka and drank the whole thing in one go.

not changing any face gestures, and getting out of the office.

as you would know, archie is a businessman of some sorts. he gives what he has with a price.

mostly it's gems and cash but one thing caught his eye, a girl names Elizabeth Cooper.

their parents came knocking down his door asking for bombs to blow up their nemesis.

when they didn't
have anything to spare, Hal Cooper gave away something precious, his daughter.

of course, her mother scolded Hal for being such an idiot but time was running out and they had no choice, they had to give Elizabeth away

not entirely away, just give her hand at marriage, archie so generously agreed at the two parents and they shook it off.

"here's your tequila, Arch"
ronnie sets down a glass of tequila.

"thank you, you may leave" archie shoos veronica away from his office.

veronica left and archie was left there, with a glass of tequila and an urge to fill

she actually forgot to call arch for some reason, the reason being her need for a little bit of Chloe Decker.

and also amie took the food
she thought as she plopped down into the couch, face first she groaned into it as amie woke up from her beauty sleep

"elizabeth! what are you doing up so early?" amie said as she walked down the stairs and sat down to the the tired and sleepy blonde

"got a job" betty said, turning her head to face amie, she was wearing a pink robe and her hair was down in waves.

"we don't need a job! i'm loaded!" amie spoke too loudly and stood up just to look at the empty fridge with memories flooding back to her that they just moved in yesterday.

betty's eyes widened and her face fell onto the couch again, realizing her mistake. she was so caught up in the moment because-

"where is it?" amie asked

betty told her it was from jug and amie knew it was coming
"did you get the job because a little cutie was there?" amie said

"he left for a month" this time, amie's eyes widened and hit betty with a pillow. she groaned in pain, took a pillow and fought back

"the only reason to go to the bar is gone" amie dropped the pillow and put her head in her hands.

betty took her in an embrace and await for the next catastrophe.
