*PLEASE NOTE - this is NOT a Bughead fic, while their relationship is mentioned and has existed in the timeline of this story, they are NOT the main relationship pairing or focus and the end game...who knows.*
Betty Coopers heart was shattered not once but twice at the tender age of 18 and she thought she might not ever find a love as strong again. But people aren't always what they seem and sometimes love is found in the most unsuspected places.
The Southside is full of broken men & broken families, but maybe it's not as lost and tarnished as it seems; yes, there is darkness there but maybe all it needed was a ray of light. And for FP Jones, that light shines through in blonde & emeralds.
Five years ago Jughead Jones left Riverdale and the girl he loved to make something of himself, shattering her heart as he went. Now, at 24, the successful writer returns to his home town hoping to catch the one that got away, except a lot has changed. Riverdale is not the town he knew, the people are not the same people he left behind and maybe you can't go back, maybe sometimes it's not what it seems.

The Athlete, the Sweetheart, and the Cynic
In a taunting voice, Reggie added, "Gee, Betty, it must be hard having a crush on some loner who doesn't even like girls." Betty raised her eyebrows, wordlessly commanding him to leave. "Did you hear me, Goldilocks?" "Oh I heard you, I just don't care. Time for you to leave, Reggie, you're not getting anywhere with me." On the outside, Betty Cooper was the perfect girl. A straight A student, sweet and kind, a play-by-the-rules kind of girl. Archie Andrews was her next door neighbor and best friend, athletically inclined, and though somewhat lacking in intellect, he was sincere and devoted. They were the epitome of the perfect couple, and everyone couldn't help but believe that Archie and Betty, young though they were, would someday end up together. But in this group there was another friend, Jughead Jones, a cynical, sardonic aspiring writer. He didn't always feel like he fit it with Betty and Archie. But somehow, he felt like he belonged with them, though he couldn't place why.Complete

"What is going on with you?" she practically yelled. I looked at her and shrugged. "Seriously, Juggie. You're so damn confusing. One minute you act like you hate me the next you are defending me and acting like you love me. You make no sense" she ranted. She glared at me and I chuckled. "I love it when you call me Juggie. It's hot" I said and she continued to glare at me in silence. "I didn't know what I wanted before. I do now" I said casually. "Really? And what is that?" She fumed. "You, baby." I smirked. Betty moved away years ago when her parents divorced. Her mother wanted a fresh start in New York. Everyone promised to keep in touch but, of course, they didn't. Only her cousin. Cheryl stuck by Betty. Betty survived though. She made new friends and her mother remarried making Veronica her sister and best friend. Jughead was broken when Betty left. Losing her changed him. As the years wore on, he became darker and cruel. He joined his Dad in the Serpents and truly loved the gang lifestyle. Archie felt hollow since Betty left.

They both embraced the New York party lifestyle. Betty changed from a sweet, quiet girl to a bit of a wild child but kept her heart of gold. That is, until Betty and Veronica move to Riverdale with their mothers. Jughead and Archie are shocked to see Betty again. One of them view her as a challenge, the other as prey. Betty has other ideas though. Language warning and maybe some violence and dark material.Complete
