Fresh start

Chapter 10

Monday

Betty's POV

I walked down the hall of riverdale high scanning the room for a sight of one of my friends. 'Betty' I heard someone say from behind. I turn around and saw Kevin waving at me. I twisted my body and walked towards him. 'Hey Kev, how are you?' I ask leaning on the locker next to his, 'good, but I had a pounding headache yesterday' he chuckled, 'how are you?' He said grabbing a book out of his locker. 'Good, I was just looking for Veronica or You' I smiled, 'Oh by the way do you want to come to the drive-in with me Tomorrow?' He asked as he closed his locker and we walked down the hall, 'Sure, I'll just ask my mum, she'll definitely say yes. She would love you Kev' I giggle but our conversation was cut short from the bell ringing. We both rolled our eyes before walking to our lessons.

Fourth period

This will be awkward. I have the school newspaper to work on this period with Jughead. I twisted the door knob around before pushing the door open and sliding in the room, I closed the door behind me and turned around. It was empty, either he wasn't showing up or he wasn't here yet, I walked over to my chair and sat down placing my laptop on the desk and then began to type away.

After a few minutes of silence the door creaked open and Jughead walked in and sat in the chair opposite me, 'hey Betts' he smiled over the edge of my laptop. 'Hi, where've you been?' I asked slightly closing the laptop, 'with the serpents, we were round the back of the school. How are you?' He replied. 'Good, Im supposed to go to the drive in tomorrow with Kevin but I have no idea what he's going to make me watch,' I giggled to my own comment. 'Sorry again, for the other day, I still feel bad' he shrugged and I gave him a faint smile. 'If you want we can pretend it never happened so you don't feel guilty' I said but he smirked 'I never said I wanted to forget that image princess.' I playfully rolled my eyes and chuckled before going back to what I was writing.

There was only around ten minutes left of this period and I'd already completed my section of the article so I closed my laptop and dropped it into my backpack, Jughead closed his laptop and stood up from his seat, 'want to go round the back of the school and I'll show you what I was doing?' He asked with a smirk, 'depends, will I end up half naked again?' I asked. 'Depends' He smiled, I rolled my eyes and slung my bag over my shoulder, 'Well now I'm curious' I laughed and we walked out the room and walked to the back of the school.

'So now what?' I asked as we turn the corner, 'is this your make out area?' I teased. 'No actually its at the front of the school' he smirked, 'this is where me and my serpents smoke, no one else comes round here' he said pulling out a cigarette and lighting it. He placed it between his lips breathed in the smoke and blew it out as if it was in slow motion. 'Want some?' He asked tilting the cigarette towards me. 'Jug I can't, I want to but I can't, I've got this modelling thing in two weeks so I have to keep healthy' I sighed, I've always been curious about smoking, what does it taste like? Does it really take the stress away? Can it help me? 'You sure, I won't tell, one can't hurt right' he smiled after taking another drag. I smirked and grabbed it out of his hand, I lent against the brick wall and placed it between my soft pink lips, i breathed in letting the deadly smoke fill my lungs before I removed the cigarette and blew the smoke out. I handed it back to jughead and pulled a disgusted face, 'did you like it?' He chuckled, 'the taste was very strong, but god do I want to do it again' I giggled. 'But can't So I'll just stand here watching you act like a bad boy.' 'Princess, I am one. You have to admit leather and smoking is a hot look, definitely when its Me' he smirked. He was right though, watching him puff out smoke with his cigarette between his two fingers, leather jacket with a snake on the back, the one curl of dark raven hair that fell out his hat, it was a fucking hot look. 'Maybe' I said back, 'you'd look great in leather, hair down flowing in the wind on the back of my motorbike, it'd be a sexy look' he grinned in a smug way. 'You wish lover boy' I said making him playfully roll his eyes and then wink at me, I'm hoping I didn't blush but a smirk grew on his face after so I probably did.

Once jughead had put out the cigarette we had walked round the front and as if it was planned the bell rang of meaning it was lunch time. 'I'm going to find V and that, coming?' I asked as we walked down the hallway earning many stares. 'Yeh, let me just put my laptop in my locker' he smiled and we walked to his locker, 'oh mines over there, I'll be right back' I said and walked over to my locker and put the laptop in. I went to walk back to jughead but was blocked by yet again Chuck Clayton. I rolled my eyes and sighed 'oh my god, again. Your like obsessed with me geez.' 'Let's go to the drive-in tomorrow, you me, alone, no distractions, no lights, what's your address Princess' he smirked still blocking my path, 'get it into your thick head Clayton. It's. Never. Gonna. Happen.' I said smugly crossing my arms and shoving past him ,but like always he grabbed my waisted but this time he tugged me against him making me fall on his chest, 'Asshole, let fucking go of me before I make you' I growled trying to tug my wrists back. 'I know you want me, so stop acting hard to get' he smirked back. 'She said let go Chuck' I heard jughead say from behind me, I turnt my body and walked towards Jug but Chuck still gripped my wrist. 'I'm not scared of you Jones, we play the same game, fuck girls then drop them' Chuck stated with a smug look, by now everyone was watching, some even filming. 'Betty's one of my friends, not one of your girl toys ,so go fuck a wall' Jughead smirked shoving chuck against a locker making him let go of my wrist. I ran behind jughead and picked my bag of the floor that I had dropped, 'come on Jug' I smiled tugging him away from Chuck before he snapped his head off. 'Don't waste your time on him' I said giving Chuck the stink eye before I walked of with jughead outside and to our table.

A/N: thanks for reading, sorry if the whole Chuck being a duck plot is repetitive.
