Stuck With You

002- Stuck

  Betty walked into her house, she just left Archie's to pack her bags. When she walked in, she immediately spotted her mom.

"Elizabeth." Alice stated blankly.

"Yeah?" Betty asks confused. Her mother had no reason to be mad at her.

"The Andrews? Really?" Alice asks.

"Mom, it's not my fault. How was I supposed to know I have to stay there for two months? You're the one staying at FP's." Betty says back.

Alice just stares at her. "Okay, you're right. I'm sorry." Alice says. Betty recoils her head in shock.

  "Oh. Okay. I'm gonna go pack my bags." Betty says while going up the stairs. She gets to her room and collects the things she decided she needs, (clothes, makeup, toothbrush, etc.) and decided that's enough. Suddenly she gets a text from Archie.

Arch: Betty, you comin soon?
Betty: Yea. I'm going downstairs soon.
Arch: K. What movie are we watching?
Betty smiles.
Betty: Haha. We'll see when I get there. Okay?
Arch: Ugh. Whatever. See you soon.
Betty: See ya soon!
To be honest, Betty's a little nervous to be spending two months at Archie's. Of course, nothings really ever awkward between them, but it's gonna be a little weird. I mean, living in the same house. Using the same bathroom. Yeah, Betty's nervous. She shakes out of her thoughts and heads downstairs.

  "Betty, I'll miss you!" Alice says while giving Betty a hug.

  "I'll miss you too mom." Betty says while hugging her back. "Hey, remember, we have phones. It's only two months." She says trying to calm Alice.

"I know, I know." Alice starts while backing away.
Alice looks like she's about to say something.

"Betty?" Alice asks.

"Yeah?" Betty questions. She sees Alice crack a smile.

"Be..safe." Alice says. Betty's confused until she sees her mom grin at her.

"Mom! You're so gross!" Betty says while laughing. Alice starts laughing as well, but stop eventually. They say their goodbyes and Betty heads over to Archie. When she gets there, Archie's already opening the front door.

  "Hey." Betty breathes out. She's still extremely nervous for this. It's not like she's never spent the night at Archie's before, but that was when they were kids. When they didn't have problems. Weird problems.

"Hey. Uh- you gonna come inside or.." Archie trails off. Betty nods her head haphazardly, and pasts Archie so she could come inside. She set her bags down and turned to him

"What's for dinner?" Betty asked, trying to stop the obvious tension.

"Mm.. what about spaghetti? I don't have anything else if I'm being honest." Archie admits. Betty smiles.

"Yeah. Yeah sure um- what room am I sleeping in?" Betty asked. She can see Archie's eyes grow wide. He gulped.

"My room." He said, not looking at her. Betty's eyes widen.

"Oh um I'm not sleeping with you I'm sleeping down here on the pull out couch-" He tries to explain, but Betty cuts him off.

"Archie Andrews, always the gentleman." Betty laughs. "I'll take the pull-out couch. You live here, it's only fair." Betty explains.

"Hell no! I will sleep on the pull-out. You sleep in my bed. That's fair." Archie said with a grin on his face. Betty gulped.

"What if we just both sleep in the bed?" Betty spit out. She instantly regretted it.

"You know what, nevermind you wouldn't wanna-"

"Okay." Archie says nonchalantly. Betty looks at him.

"What?" She questions.

"Ok. If you're comfortable with it I mean..sure." He says. Betty smiles at him. Yeah. She's got it bad.
