Betty comes back to Riverdale five years after she left and finds Jughead in a state she doesn't expect. Hurt/Comfort. (Plus, Rainystripe has provided a graphic for Chapter 9!) Please Note: This fic was written as a speculative future fic after Season One aired. Also, it can be harsh at times, so please proceed with caution if you are sensitive and stop reading if something is too much for you. Thank you.

---Completed--- Almost five years ago, Betty Cooper took off and fled the town of Riverdale. Rumors were spread and the townspeople whispered about why she might've left, some suspect that her dreams of living in New York were the cause. But those who knew her best, knew that wasn't the case. Now, after she is called in to investigate a recent murder within her home town, she is forced to work with none other than Riverdale's own investigative journalist-Jughead Jones. Betty is hiding huge secrets from her old friend, and the feelings she's locked inside herself are dangerously close to resurfacing. Will she be strong enough to resist Jughead's pull on her even after all these years? Or will she allow her heart to be broken once again by her high school sweetheart? --- "How many times Jug? How many times are we going to push each other away?" "Until it sticks." --- A/N: I don't own the Riverdale characters they are property of the CW.

What happens when the core four is tied together by every strand of hair, unable to move as their claws grow bigger with time, hurting themselves and each other. Riverdale, season 4 episode 17. Alternative ending or something similar.

NO LONGER UPDATING Excerpt: "Oh, that's not what Betty tells me when she calls after one of your guy's "going out together". She calls it dates, right Betty?" Veronica says, clearly wanting to help her friend out. Betty widens her eyes and shakes her head slightly. Jughead grabs her hand underneath the table. Cheryl notices this, as she's been sitting on top of one of the seats and she gasps.
