7 parts Complete she's been closed off for as long as she can remember, mostly when it comes to her family. not because she was ashamed- she was scared. no one would understand, she was sure of it.
veronica lodge didn't let people in. and when they got in, they didn't stay. it was this way with archie andrews: the truest love she'd ever felt.
he wanted to protect her but the last thing she needed was him getting hurt. it was all too real and all too possible. and he couldn't- she loved him too much.
so she left riverdale and the love of her life in a trail of dust. the only way to help him was to hurt herself. to lose the only thing she'd ever needed to rely on.
he refuses to move on, throwing himself into everything that can distract him from her but not fix him. items of hers and pictures of her are everywhere and so is the thought of her.
and then she's back, and he doesn't know if he should be happy or sad or angry or all three.
he just knows they both need to heal.
