The group sat around lazily as they where coming down from their highs. They sat on the floor backs against the stacked bookshelves. Betty and Jughead sat across from eachother, archie next to Jug and Veronica and Kevin on either side of Betty.

They just looked at eachother as they where all too lazy and tired from coming out from their high.

Kevin was the first to speak out of the group. "You know? I actually had fun today with you guys" "yeah. Who would of thought that I'd have fun with all you losers" Jughead said with a laugh and a smile, then they all started chuckling and giggling for a little bit.

"Betty what did you get detention for?" Archie asked "I skipped school to go to the mall" she replied "why'd you go to the mall?" Kevin asked "well I couldn't be assed with school and I didn't want to be at home, so I thought why not the mall" she replied honestly "why are you here Kevin" betty asked "because Mr. Honey caught me with a flask of scotch in my locker" Kevin replied "why? Where you trying to get drunk at school?" Veronica asked in confusion "yeah, I had it to take the edge off. Why are you here Veronica?" Kevin finished "I didn't do anything. I was bored and had nothing better to do" she said with a shy yet almost smug smile "Your crazy" Betty points out with a giggle and everyone starts to as well.

"What about you Jughead, what did you do this time?" Veronica queried "I'm here because I set a trash can on fire at the back of the school" he said shamelessly "why" Betty said looking him in the eye "I was bored and I wanted to throw away my texts books that are not needed like at all" he said chuckling at the last few words if his sentence.

"But what I wanna know is why Riverdale's Golden boy is in detention" Jughead said "I'm here 'cause I got into a fight with Chuck" he replied "why'd you get into a fight with Chuck?" Betty asked confused "because he was shit talking an old friend, it was disgusting and I couldn't let him carry on. I tried to tell him to shut up, but, he wouldn't listen so I punched him" Archie replied honestly "who was he shit talking" Kevin asked "does it matter?" Archie snapped "why won't you tell us" Jughead pondered "leave him alone, if he doesn't want to tell us, then he doesn't have too" Veronica established "come on, Arch just tell us" Betty pipped in. Jughead couldn't help the twinge of jealousy that ran through his veins when she called Archie by a nickname. "fine!! It was YOU Betty OK, it was you. He kept telling some of us about how you slept with him after your date and how, he was gonna make you his 'little sex slave' or whatever and I couldn't let him talk like that about you" 

every one turned to Betty, who's eyes where pricked with tears, treating to spill over her dark lashes. She got up from the floor as some tears rolled down her cheeks.

She started to walk away from the people who where still sat on the floor.
"Betty wait" Jughead called after her as she walked away. She didn't listen and just kept walking until, Jughead caught up to her and grabbed her wrist, stopping her from leaving. Betty turned around to face him, light pink cheeks, that where stained with her tears and a little amount of mascara "what?!" she shouted "you don't have to run from us" He said softly "I just want to be alone can't you do that, please?" she pleaded "I don't think that's a good idea" he replied "but I don't wanna go back there, OK. It's humiliating" "I understand that but-" he got cut off by Betty "NO! No you don't understand OK. Being a girl in high school sucks, you know that?! It's like I'm set up in a trap. If I say that I've never had sex then I'm a prude!!. But if I have I get called a slut.!!And what do the boys get?! They get praised, congratulated, celabrated!! And then you get guys like Chuck, who think it's OK to degrade us like it's no big deal, like we just expect it or take it because there's nothing better to do!!" she ranted and Jughead just stood there and let her.

Then she broke down into tears and collapsed. But before she could fall to the floor, she felt two strong arms wrapped around her and slowly lowered her to the floor to sit in Jughead's lap. He let her cry into his shirt, whispering calming things into her ear while stroking her golden locks.

After about five minutes of crying into Jughead's shirt, Betty stopped and looked up at him. "thank you Juggie" she choked out he internally screamed in happiness at the nickname she called him"No problem betts" he replied holding her chin so she could look him in the eye.

They where just looking into each other's eyes for awhile, then they both started to lean in. Their lips brushed slightly before Jughead leaned in closer so their lips where locked together in a moment of passion.

Betty quickly maneuvered herself so she was standing Jug. His hands around her waist, hers around his neck.

They pulled apart for a breath and rested their foreheads together, breathing heavily.
