sabrina living in the bates house is one of the greatest things i have ever seen

Archie: ah,

      ❝   ---- okay ?  i mean, i’m actually waiting for ronnie right now, but i’ll see what i can do with whatever time--  ❞  there’s a chime from his pocket, and his phone is produced with little thought. what the small bright screen shows ( x’s & o’s ) prompts a faint pucker to his brow, before a sigh and a faint sort of smile are loosed.   ❝  -- on second thought, it looks like i’m all yours.  ❞

     fondness & warmth bloom at the simplicity of her statement. a happy pulse in his chest, a constant blush to his cheeks. his is hers and hers is his ---- it’s been like that for as long as he can remember, and he hates that he allowed himself to forget. a hand is drawn up to scratch at his neck, mindful of the bowtie that sits at a crooked angle.   ❝   i actually have a bit of a surprise for you ---- we’re not just going to pop’s.  ❞
