Too Young to Burn

TRIGGER WARNING: MAJOR CHARACTER DEATH

Jughead: Loser, loner, freak. He's used to the names, he brought them onto himself. Part of him always considered changing, make new names for himself, but he would never get the chance. Not when he finds out what's been haunting him for the past month. So how do you reinvent yourself when your time left is minimal?

Betty: Everyone's best friend, sun, perfect. The outside her was great, inside her had too many conflicts for her brain to process. Her best friends weren't really her friends, and it took her too long to realize the fact. They didn't care for her and had only hung around her because she hid the scent of how evil and disgusting they really were.

Jughead needs to change himself. Betty needs to fix past mistakes. The two old friends reconcile, but not after she pushes him to the point where he can't say no. It's not always easy and most of the time, they want to give up. They want to go home and forget things that happened. But they don't. They don't stop and as Jughead ails, the relationship between the two of them becomes stronger than ever. A dangerous game, really, but neither want to stop playing.
