This combines multiple episodes of season 2 and doesn’t exactly follow the plot. As for all, it can be read as stand-alone or as part of the series. My masterlist has links to the rest of the series HERE . I hope you enjoy and as always feedback is both welcomed and encouraged.  Tags: @l4life @ahoy-ladies-67

The Black Hood. That is what the town was calling him thanks to Alice Cooper. The man who had shot Mr. Andrews, Moose and Midge, killed Ms. Grundy, and had been psychologically terrorizing your friends. He had been on the loose for three weeks and that was all the time it took to change everything. There was a curfew instated,everyone was on edge, and that is only scratching the surface as you were sure more had transpired that you were merely unaware of.

Out of everyone, Archie had taken it the worst. While his dad was okay and back to work, he still wasn’t sleeping. He was constantly on edge and had even tried to take matters into his own hands by creating the red circle. You loved how fiercely he wanted to protect the people he loved, however, you were starting to fear that he was losing himself in the process.

You tried to be there for him, but it was harder now that you lived and went to school on the Southside. Speaking of Southside, Jughead was supposed to be your friend there, but he had started to hang out with the Serpents. He had become a kingpin in a matter of weeks. Little did you know that his involvement had gone further and included a deal with the snake handler. Something both he and Archie had swore to never speak of again. You didn’t blame him for becoming a serpent as he probably wouldn’t survive otherwise with the ghoulies around. You just hoped that he knew what he was doing.

As for the rest of the gang, you haven’t heard much from Veronica, who has been preoccupied with her father’s return. She desperately needed to know whether or not her dad had any connection to the Black Hood. Betty was trying to keep Jughead on the straight and narrow and manage her parents never-ending drama. Unbeknownst to you, she was also struggling through torturous communications with the Black Hood who had dedicated his work to her.

Your group had been separated just when they could benefit most from being together.

You were supposed to be hanging out with Archie. Instead, you were forced at gunpoint to go to the cemetery. Trying to stay calm you called Archie as directed through tears. You hoped with every ring that he wouldn’t answer. Maybe you would be able to keep him out of this mess. But that was not the case.

“Hey Y/n, I’ve been waiting for you. Is everything okay?” Archie asked.

“Archie, I-” you started but the Black Hood pushed the gun into the back of your head causing you to whimper.

“Y/n?”

“I am in the cemetery with a friend of yours. Come alone and don’t call the police or I will be dead when you arrive” you read. 

“I’m on my way. Everything will be okay, just hold on. I lo-” he said frantically before the Black Hood ended the call. 

“So what is the plan here? Killing us in the cemetery is a little cliche isn’t it?” you taunted.

“Shut up and sit still!” he demanded.

You sat and looked around trying to come up with a plan, any plan. You hoped that Archie wasn’t dumb enough to come alone, but you knew that he would. He would do anything to protect the people he loved.

When he arrived he went for you but was stopped by the Black Hood. He directed you and Archie further into the cemetery where there was a shallow grave with an empty coffin. You were confused, but then realized with horror what was about to happen. 

“Get in the Coffin” the Black Hood ordered.

“No way!” Archie replied.

“Get in the Coffin or I’ll shoot her in the head,” the Black Hood threatened. 

“Okay,” Archie surrendered doing as told.

“Shut the coffin and start to fill in the grave,” he ordered you.

You hesitated, how were you supposed to do this? 

“Y/n, do it now. Shut the coffin,” he yelled.

“It’s okay.” Archie tried.

“I’m so sorry, I love you,” you cried as you closed the lid. 

“Pick up the shovel. Fill in the grave.” the Black Hood demanded still pointing the gun at your head. 

You did as told careful to throw the dirt at Archie’s feet. You were racking your brain for an escape scenario that would get both of you out alive and alternatively a plan that ensured Archie got out alive. It was a minute later when the police sirens were heard. 

You took advantage of this temporary distraction and used to shovel to knock out the Black hood which caused him to drop his gun. When you turned back and he was fleeing the scene. You immediately went for Archie pulling open the coffin and helping him out.

“Where did he go?” Archie asked frantically.

“Through there, towards the bridge,” you answered.

Archie wasted no time in grabbing the gun and sprinting after the Black Hood. You were close behind. When Archie and you did catch up, the hooded figure was about to jump over the bridge. 

“Stop!” Archie yelled, “I said stop or I’ll shoot you. I swear to god that I will do it!” 

There was a pause. How far was Archie really winning to go? You knew that whatever happened next would change everything.

“You tried to kill my father and my friends. You are going to pay for your crimes. This ends tonight.” Archie struggled. 

It was then that the Black Hood had decided to jump. “Stop!” Archie screamed. And then the gunshot fired by Sheriff Keller. 

What happened next was all a bit of a blur. The moral of the story was that the man behind the mask was none other than Mr. Spenson?  Everyone met up at Pop’s to celebrate if that was even the right word. Something didn’t feel right, the pieces seemed to fit together too well. But you definitely were not going to be the one to say anything.

The Black Hood was dead, right?

Everything was over now and could go back to normal, right?

Could it be that easy, just once?

Sweet Pea x Reader

Warnings: Swearing

A/N: Wow I'm rusty at writing fics oh my days, please let me know what you think regardless.

--------------------------------

3rd person pov

It has been a long time since you had last walked the halls of Riverdale High. The place where dreams go to die and promiscuity is to be expected. It was a second home, obvious issues handling student mental health aside. The halls appeared smaller than they did a year ago, the boom of Serpent population not a subtle change.

"Welcome back nerd!!!" your redheaded best friend threw his arm around you before taking your bag and placing it on his own shoulder. You had missed a year of school, your parents opting for homeschooling whilst traveling around southern America

"Arch no need for the shouting, Greendale don't need to know I'm back as well" you bumped him with your hip, taking your bag back to your own shoulder. As you do this your water slipped from its holster, hitting the grimey floor and cracking open. A small flood following suit. The river of chilled water rushed down the gently sloping floor of a building suffering subsidence.

You stifled a laugh as Archie hurried to the nearby supply closet for a mop. The river coarsed on and into the path of a serpent, sending him sailing across the hall to land square on his back. You flushed red in embarrassment as the boy flushed red with anger. Laughter filled the halls, his serpent cohorts creating most of the noise. Your eyes met those of the fallen as Archie returned and busied himself cleaning. The tower of a boy walked towards you both, the laughter dying out.

"You dropped your bottle" the words were spoken through gritted teeth as he handed you the cracked bottle after collecting it from the floor bitterly.

"I uhh uhhh" you hurriedly tried to take it from his scarred hands, his grip not releasing. His knuckles turned white as more pressure was applied to the already damaged plastic, deepening its wounds.

"Sweet Pea, c'mon let's get you a towel or something" Fangs laid a hand on his best friends shoulder, gently trying to pull Sweet Peas gaze from yours. You couldn't keep it in any longer, a laugh rising from deep within and out into the halls. Sweet Pea couldn't hide his surprise and Fangs his shock.

"Oh God Sweet Potato sorry for laughing but you were just completely taken out" you managed through the laughter while patting his chest and taking your bottle.

"Anyway dude sorry about that, Arch c'mon let's head to home room" you gave a little wave and smile to the two Serpents and carrying yourself off with your best friend.

"Sweet Potato? Sweet Potato?!"

"You have to admit Sweet Potato, it's pretty funny" Sweet Pea shoved his friend away from the door of the chemistry lab. Through the laughter Fangs waved his best friend off as he left for his next class. Sweet Pea rolled his eyes on turning into the lab and crashing straight into you sending your scalding coffee into your chest.

"HOLY FUCKING SHIT HOT! HOT! FUCKING HELL YOU MORON!" you'll pulled the steaming cloth from your boiler skin, cursing loudly as the chemistry teacher came to the incident from down the hall. Sweet Pea attempting to help and failing.

"YN! LANGUAGE! DETENTION!"

"Oh yeah students are openly taking drugs in the hallways and you're sending her to detention" Sweet Peas best intentions were tainted as the dragon lady chemistry teacher turned her fire to him, damning him with the same fate as you.

The both of you sat in sour silence, eyes on a black board that had seen better days. A week for you both in this hell. Your supervisor swung back in his chair, sound asleep, the clock deafening the room aided by the 60 year olds sleepy snoring.

"Yanno I know you're salty about your little swim this morning but I don't think 3rd degree burns is an equal trade" you whispered towards the back of the Serpents head, gently kicking his chair.

"Listen here Starbucks, I didn't mean to do that you, you clearly are accident prone and hell bent on drag down whoever you can with you" you scoff at him causing him to turn around to give you his full attention. His brow raised at you and all you could do was bat your eyelashes.

"I'm just saying I don't think a Serpent should be preaching the path of not taking anyone down for something they didn't do"

"Oh Starbucks that's cold" the boy with the jet black hair grabbed his chest in fake pain. A practically loud gargle from the supervisor caused you both to snap back forward. Sweet Pea rolled his eyes at the mess of a man before rising to his feet quietly.

"C'mon Starbucks I'm bored of this shit, we should just leave and come back before the end"

"What Sweet Potato? Do you want to go get coffee?" You gestured to your stained top gaining a smirk from the Serpent.

You didn't mind the motorcycle, a quicker way to reach the lookout point on one of Riverdales many mountains. Neither of you knew where to go with your time and landed here after getting lost. It being the happiest of accidents.

For the rest of the week you both went to detention for half an hour, left for the rest and returned before the old lump woke up. During this time you both found so many similarities it was hard to imagine any other kind of ending to the week. The world was allowed to flow on by you both on that mountain without ever disrupting you both.

"So like I guess this is the end" a somber tune rang through Sweet Peas voice as ye walked to the car park after your final detention. You gave a small sad smile to the towering boy before exchanging a brief hug and heading to walk away only to be stopped by a weathered hand grabbing yours.

"YN...emm… do you want to maybe go get that coffee?"

"Ehh I'd prefer a water" you winked at the Serpent you were maddeningly falling for.

"I think that can be arranged" he laughed, throwing an arm around your shoulders and guiding you to his motorbike

Fic Recs (Both Supernatural and Riverdale) 

Prompt List I use - Angst/Fluff/Misc. Send # and Person if you want :) 

AN: This is a new series that I have been working on. It will eventually be Archie x reader. It both follows and improvises from the tv series with added plots for the reader’s character. Part 2    Part 3    Part 4

Riverdale, the town of secrets. It was once such a simple and harmless place to live. You, Jughead, and his dad would go to the Andrew’s house for barbecues. There the two of you would play with Archie and Betty. The four of you became the best of friends. But then high school came and everyone started to go their separate ways. 

Archie Andrews, the boy next door. He no longer went out of his way to talk to you. In fact, he had hardly talked to you at all since his falling out with Jughead. He spent his summer working with his Dad on their construction business. He came back with a love of music and plans to play football. He would soon be one of the star players on the Varsity team. 

Betty Cooper, the perfect girl next door. Betty and you were also good friends before the falling out. But where Archie went, Betty followed. With exception of Betty, you had never cared for the Coopers. They made everyone else’s business their business. Betty tried not to play into the stereotypes. She tried to see the best in people, that is just who she was. At least who she tried to convince everyone that she was. Betty was the girl who had a secret crush on her neighbor. A crush that she was preparing to act on.

Jughead Jones, the first detective. He had a way around words and the page. If there was a mystery in town, he was going to get to the bottom of it no matter the cost. He is one of your best friends, and has been since day one. He was selfless and brilliant, with emotional baggage that could fill a closet. But that was okay. He may not have fit in at Riverdale, but he and his beanie would prove to be one of its’ greatest defenders.

Veronica Lodge, newcomer and daddy’s girl. There is not much that you know about Veronica yet. She came from the city and is the daughter of the infamous Hiram Lodge. She was here less than a day before she started changing things. She has caught Archie’s eye and befriended Betty. The two of them are now part of the vixen's cheer squad. 

And finally there is you, the outlier. For those who don’t know, an outlier is a math term that is used to describe a point of data that throws off all of the other data. It is part of the set, but doesn’t seem to belong there. You were born on the South-side, your parents were serpents. They died in a mysterious accident, and now you were on your own. You slept on a hammock, occasionally crashing with Jughead if the weather was bad enough. You didn’t want to be a part of the serpents and Jughead felt the same way. The two of you stuck together, he was the closest thing you had to family.

Hello, welcome back to Deadly Definitions. Find the first 11.5 parts here:  Part 1    Part 2    Part 3    Part 4   Part 5   Part 6   Part 7  Part 8   Part 9   Part 9.5   Part 10   Part 11  Tags: @l4life @ahoy-ladies-67 

Four days had gone by since you found the video and handed it over to the Sheriff. Four days since Clifford Blossom hung himself. Four days since the Blossom’s drug run came out into the open. And now, everyone was condemned to face the aftermath.

On Monday, Betty post an article to the Blue and Gold webpage that shed truth on all that had been going on in Riverdale and in defense of FP. It was some of her best work. Meanwhile, the Sheriff was drilling FP trying to get names of the Serpent drug runners. At the same time, Veronica’s mother was starting to prepare for her husband’s return. You and Jughead were trying to figure out your next move.

On Tuesday, you, Archie, and Betty had been called down to the Principal’s office. You and Archie still hadn’t really talked and the truth was that he was worried about you. His worry only grew when he found that you weren’t at school. The purpose of the meeting was simple. Principal Weatherbee and Mayor McCoy wanted you and Archie to perform at the 75th anniversary Jubilee with Josie and the Pussy cats. They also wanted Betty to give a speech to inspire town unity. Betty asked why Jughead was being left out, after all, he did the most in solving Jason’s murder. The mayor gave a very political answer and then dismissed both Archie and Betty.

As they left, Archie asked Betty if she had seen you or if she had any clue where you were. She didn’t, but she noted that she hadn’t seen Jughead either. Archie wondered where the two of you were.

The answer to that question was at the police station. FP was technically your guardian and seeing as he was looking at being in prison for a long period of time, you and Jughead would have to find a new guardian or be placed in the foster system. You immediately called Archie’s dad in tears. 

When he showed up he talked to Keller and offered to take you and Jughead in. The problem was that social workers were already involved and everything had to be official. He didn’t meet the requirements to host one of you let alone both of you. There were two foster families on the southside that agreed to take one of you in, that not only meant that the two of you would be split up, but you would both have to attend Southside High. Upon hearing this you had enough and ran out of the station.

Why was this happening? You didn’t want to leave, this was your home. You had already lost so much, you didn’t want to lose Archie too. You knew that if you went to the Southside that everything would change. You wanted to scream, to punch something, to hide away from everything. And so, you started walking towards the river. 

Meanwhile back at school, Cheryl was being odd even for Cheryl. She was giving away things and saying goodbyes. Veronica confronted her and told her that everything would get better. But Cheryl wasn’t sad, she was at peace, which completely threw Veronica off. Betty had called Jughead and discovered what had happened that morning. He informed her that he would be arriving back at school any minute. 

Archie called you for what seemed like the hundredth time. At this point you either didn’t have your phone, it was dead, or you were purposefully ignoring him. He went to send you a text but Veronica pulled him away along with Jughead.

“Veronica, what’s going on?” he asked.

“It’s Betty” was all she said before they got to the crowded hall. They pushed their way through and saw that someone had vandalized her locker. There were many copies of her article along with a hanging voodoo doll. The whole thing was covered in blood that read ‘Go To HELL SERPENT SLUT’. Jughead quickly stepped in between her and the scene. 

“Betty,” he whispered.

She ran into his arms trying to rip the papers down, “It’s just some jerk with a can of spray paint” he cried.

“Betty,” he said as he held her firmly, “I don’t think that’s spray paint,” he said as he forced her away. 

The entire group locked themselves in the blue and gold office and comforted her. After a while, Archie asked Jug if he knew where you were. That is when Jug informed everyone about what had happened at the Sheriff’s station that morning. They were all in shock over the news. Betty and Veronica called their mom’s about taking you in. Veronica’s said no because of Hiram's return and Betty’s said they couldn’t with Polly and the babies. Everything was happening so fast. 

Archie was going to leave and look for you so you wouldn’t have to go through all of this alone. But before he could, Veronica received a text from Cheryl. ‘Thanks for trying, I’m going to be with JJ’ it read.

“Om my god” she gasped showing the message to her friends.

“Where would Cheryl go to be with Jason?” Betty questioned.

“Sweetwater River” Archie realized and they all raced there.

------------------Meanwhile-----------------------

Sweetwater River had always been the place you came when you needed to clear your head. There was something so serene about it, especially in the wintertime. You walked around for a while, trudging through the snow, your only regret was that you weren’t wearing warmer clothes. You went to the lookout and noticed that there was someone on the ice. You quickly realized that it was Cheryl Blossom. You made your way down to the bank and called out to her. She simply ignored you and started pounding on the ice.

You had no choice and carefully walked out to her. “Cheryl, what are you doing out here?” you asked.

She was absolutely distraught, “I’m going to be with JJ.”

“Come on Cheryl, let’s go back to the bank and we can talk about this,” you instructed calmly.

“I don’t want to go back, I just want this to be over,” she cried.

“It’s okay Cheryl it’s all going to be okay, we just have to get off the ice” 

“No, it’s never going to be okay again,” she sobbed.

“Cheryl I understand what you're going through, I was thinking the same thing when I lost my parents, but it gets better I promise.”

“It can’t” she cried.

You were going to continue, but you felt the ice shift ever-so-slightly under your feet. At this time you could hear Archie and the gang calling out for Cheryl. This was scary as you didn’t know how it would force her to react. 

You refocused your attention on her, “Come on Cheryl, let’s go” you tried ignoring your friends.

“I can’t go back,” she whispered.

“Yes, you can. Jason would want you to. He would want you to live your life. Please come with me, do it for Jason,” you tried starting to get desperate. 

Cheryl paused for a moment, it felt like an eternity, before she nodded her head in agreement. You sighed in relief and put your arms around her guiding her back when you heard the cracking.

There was no time to react before both you and Cheryl were underwater. It was so dark and cold. You had an arm around Cheryl and worked against the current to force her back to the surface. It was all happening so fast. You tried to focus on the light was coming from the hole where the two of you fell in. You pushed her up as someone was pulling her out of the water. It was a struggle as the current felt like it was getting stronger, or maybe your body was just starting to go numb. You tried to fight your way back over to the surface but it was becoming too hard. All you could focus on was how cold it was. And then you couldn’t focus at all.

-----

“Oh my god, Cheryl’s on the ice” Betty said as they got to the shoreline where they could see.

“Who is that with her?” Veronica asked.

“It’s Y/n” Archie whispered fear sinking in.

“Shouldn’t we go get them?” Veronica asked wondering why they were just standing there.

“We can’t V, it’s not safe” Betty answered.

“She’s right, we don’t want to risk putting too much weight on the ice,” Jughead agreed. 

They watched in utter silence as the scene unfolded before them, only able to hear fragments of sentences. 

“Okay, they’re coming back,” Veronica acknowledged. 

They were relieved momentarily, but then they watched in horror as the ice cracked submerging both of you. 

Archie sprinted out to the hole and laid on his stomach shoving his hand through to grab Cheryl. He ignored how cold it was and how his muscles ached from the action. Jughead was soon by his side helping him pull her out. As soon as she was, she was coughing and freaking out. Jughead ordered Betty and Veronica to take her back to the shore, wanting to minimize the weight on the ice. Archie went back for you but the current was starting to pull you away. He scooted himself forward and reached again desperately, just barely managing to grab your jacket. It was enough though and he was able to pull you closer and get a better grip before pulling you out.

As he got you out of the water he was freaking out. You were unconscious and so cold. He lowered his ear over your mouth, listening to see if you were breathing. You weren’t. He didn’t hesitate to start CPR, terrified of screwing it up. Jughead had no choice but to stand there and watch.

“Come on, Y/n!” Archie cried out as he started doing chest compressions again. This wasn’t happening. Jughead turned away, he couldn’t watch. But suddenly he heard you start coughing up water and gasping for air before passing out again. 

As you started to come to, you were freezing and very confused. You faintly remember being picked up and carried. You remember hearing Archie apologize repeatedly as he stripped off your wet clothes and slipped one of his shirts over your head. He went downstairs grabbed a space heater, blankets, and hot cocoa. When he returned, he took his shirt off and put some sweatpants on before joining you. He was holding you tightly and you were thankful for the warmth that radiated off of him.

“Archie?” you sniffled.

“Y/n, hey, how are you feeling?” he asked rubbing his hands over your arms.

“Cold” you tried to joke.

“I’m so glad that you’re okay,” he replied.

“You saved my life,” you whispered.

“And you saved Cheryls” he reminded.

“Is she okay?” 

“Yeah, she’s with Veronica now.”

You wrapped yourself around him and he readjusted the blankets around the two of you. 

“Thank you,” you smiled.

“Here, I made you hot chocolate,” he said as he handed you a mug. 

You took it and sipped it slowly. Before handing it back to him to set down. You cuddled back into his side mesmerized by him. 

“I love you Archie,” you whispered as you were being lulled back to sleep allowing the exhaustion take over. 

“I love you too Y/n,” he said kissing the top of your head.

Hello, welcome back to Deadly Definitions. Find the first 10 parts here:  Part 1    Part 2    Part 3    Part 4   Part 5   Part 6   Part 7  Part 8   Part 9   Part 9.5   Part 10     Tags: @l4life @ahoy-ladies-67

“Jug, Jug wait up,” you called after him running as fast as you could in heels. 

“Y/n I can’t do this, not right now,” he replied brushing you off.

“Listen to me Jug, he didn’t do this, we’ll figure it out”

“But what if he did? He was trying to leave town. He’s a serpent it’s not like this would be the first time he committed a crime.”

“I think you know deep down that he didn’t. There is more at play here than we are seeing,”

“I don’t want to deal with any of this right now, I just want to go to Toledo with my mom and JB” he said.

“Okay, let’s go to the bus station,” you answered.

When the two of you arrived, Jug called his mother to see what would be the best time for him to come. She told him that it wasn’t a good idea for him to come at all. He decided not to tell her about everything that was going on. As he hung up, he struggled against his emotion. He felt so lost, like no one wanted him. 

Seeing this, you hugged him tightly. That is when a woman came up to you and informed you that the station closed in 10 minutes and wouldn’t reopen until the next morning at 5:30 am.

“Okay, so we go to Pop’s and wait it out. If you’re sure this is what you really want?” you questioned.

He simply nodded. It wasn’t long after the two of you arrived that the rest of the gang appeared.

“Jug, Y/n” Archie said with relief.

“Jug we are so sorry about everything,” Betty apologized.

“Jug, breaking into your Dad’s trailer was wrong, but at least some good came out of it,” Archie added.

“I’m pretty sure my Dad was just arrested for murder” Jughead returned.

“But the gun wasn’t there when we searched the trailer, it had to be planted after we left.” Veronica replied.

“What are you guys talking about?” Jughead asked.

So they proceeded to fill the two of you in. All of you went to the Sheriff’s station. You had to tell Sheriff Keller the truth before it was too late. But when you arrived, he informed you that Jughead’s dad confessed.

After that, everything started going really fast. First, Jughead went to apologize to Cheryl and got kicked out of school. Then Betty’s dad broke into their house and was caught with Sheriff Keller’s missing case files. He then went on to explain that he didn’t know why Jughead’s dad confessed to taking them because he was the one who did. This is when her dad explained that the Cooper’s were actually Blossom’s. Betty quickly pieced it together that if her dad was willing to steal evidence to cover up the incest in the family, what would Clifford or Penelope Blossom do? This lead them to Thornhill in the middle of the night to collect Polly and the babies.

That same night Archie’s mom sat with Jughead’s dad trying to find out the truth. This was to no avail as he stuck to his original story. So, Jughead went to confront him. That is when he knew that his father was lying. The entire gang went to talk to Joquin to see if he knew anything. He admitted to helping clean up the blood and storing the body in the freezer. From here, you, Betty, and Jughead went back to the Blue and Gold. The goal was to review the evidence and try to see what it was that you were missing. Meanwhile, Archie and Veronica went to interrogate Mustang who was the only other person to know about the cover-up.

When they arrived, they found him dead. It appeared to be an overdose. They called the police and shortly after they arrived they came out with a bag of money with the initials H.L. Veronica was shaken, had her father really been behind this? 

You got a text from Kevin that Joquin had revealed to him the location of a secret contingency plan that would either prove FP’s innocence or guilt. You, Betty, and Jughead went to find it. What you found was Jason’s varsity jacket stuffed in a bag. The three of you brought it back to Archie’s garage where the others were waiting. Everyone looked it over and were starting to give up. You glanced at Jug who was starting to lose hope. That is when you took the jacket.

“Archie, stand up,” you ordered.

“What, why?” he asked as he stood.

“Put this on,” you said as you held the jacket up.

“Y/n, this is weird,” he replied

“Put it on,” you repeated.

You then proceeded to pat him down and search the pockets. That is when you noticed a small hole.

“There’s a hole in the pocket,” you announced.

“Come on Y/n, you’re just grasping at straws” Veronica spoke.

“Think about it V, when you have a hole in your pocket what happens to your lipgloss?” you asked.

“It’s goes to the liner” Betty answered in amazement.

You worked your way around the liner and found something. You carefully pulled it out through the pocket of the jacket and held it up. It was a small USB.

“What the hell?” Veronica asked.

“You amaze me,” Archie said as he discarded the jacket.

You pulled out your computer and got ready to see what was on the flash drive as Betty spoke, “Maybe you shouldn’t watch this Jug,”

“I have to Betty, it’s my dad,” he replied.

“Okay, so we all watch it together,” Archie said. 

You were hesitant to start the video. You knew that it was one of those moments that would change everything. You looked around and reluctantly hit start.

And you all watched. There was Jason Blossom tied to a chair, alive. You saw as Mustang beat him. And then you watched as Clifford Blossom entered the frame. He took the wedding ring from his son and then pulled out a gun and shot him. 

Immediately as the video ended, Betty stood up making a call “Betty, who are you calling?” Archie asked. 

“You have to get out of the house now. We have undeniable proof that your Dad killed Jason. He’s dangerous Cheryl.” She spoke before hanging up. You made a copy of the video and decided that Alice Cooper was the best one to take it to the Sheriff. 

It was later revealed that Jughead’s father only confessed because Clifford threatened to kill Jughead the same way he killed Jason. Regardless of the threats, he was still going to be in jail for a long time. Veronica’s mother informed her that her father was coming home to Riverdale. Betty’s family was reunited and acted as if nothing had ever happened. Archie’s mother was going back to Chicago, and he was staying with his dad. And you were alone again, starting to question everything. 

A/N: I have to warn you this is was going to be super angsty, but it kinda turned into a fluff piece. So yeah. @l4life​

When Veronica told you that the video was a big set- up, it all made sense. Cheryl was totally the person to pull something like that. Especially if Archie wasn’t giving into her games. You knew that Archie would never intentionally hurt you. You felt bad for doubting him. You needed to go see him, to make this all right.

So at 1:32 a.m. Friday morning while you were supposed to be on bed-rest, you got Veronica to get Smithers to give you a ride to the Andrews home. You were not surprised to see that the light was still on in Archie’s room.

If your shoulder was not still in a sling, you totally would have climbed the tree outside his window as you had many times before just for the romantic value of it. However you were forced to be lame and just use the front door. You made your way upstairs quietly to avoid waking his Dad.

You peeked in his room to see him sitting on his bed messing around with his laptop. You entered which caught his attention and he bolted up catching you in the doorway.

“Y/n, I am so sorry. I shouldn’t have… I’m done with the Blossoms. I didn’t know she was going to kiss me. I broke it off right away I swear. It meant nothing to me. I came here to tell you, I didn’t want to do it over the phone. I didn’t know about the video. I love you so much and I would never do that to you. Please give me a chance to make it up to you” he pleaded.

“Archie, you don’t have to apologize. I should have stayed here to confront you and let you explain instead of running away to Veronica’s. I believe you, and if you say that it was a set-up then it was. I’m sorry that I doubted you. I love you.” you said and then proceeded to kiss him yourself.

It was so passionate that the two of you got lost in it. He pushed your back against the door frame and you ignored the subtle pain it caused your shoulder. It was like fireworks brighter than you ever felt before. There was no uncertainty, just trust. It was like everything bad in life disappeared and it was just you and Archie. There was no past or future just now.

When you did finally pull away you were momentarily unable to open your eyes and a smile was already forming on your mouth. You looked to Archie who was also smiling. The two of you stayed there like that just staring at each other in adoration for a moment. Neither of you needed to say anything.

He loved that you came back. He loved that you trusted him and believed in him. He loved you. He loved that you were always there for him no matter what. He loved how you always stood up for people. He loved the way you went out of your way to make people smile and to help people. He loved everything about you.

The next day would be one of the most important of this story. Because it was on this day that apologies would be made and friendships reborn. It all started in the common room before school. Two girls, neither of which you recognized had approached Cheryl harassing her about lying to the police. 

Then Reggie spoke up “You don’t have to worry about Cheryl. It is never the popular ones. It always the loner outcasts. The nobodies in the background who have a weird obsession with murder. One of the freaks like Jughead or Y/n.” 

“That’s enough Reggie” Betty called.

“What was it like Suicide Squad? When you shot Jason, you didn’t do stuff to the body, did you? like after?” he added.

“It’s called necrophilia Reggie, can you spell it?” Jughead shot back. 

Reggie got up and went for Jughead, but Archie stepped in the way. “Shut the hell up Reggie”,

“What do you care Andrews?” Reggie questioned.

“Nothing. Just leave them alone” Archie answered turning back to the vending machine. 

“Come on Jughead, let’s get out of here.” you said dragging him out of the room.  

“Doesn’t surprise me though, that little bitch of yours has experience? With her parents.” Reggie called after the two of you.

“That’s it” Archie said before punching Reggie. Jughead stopped in his place. He couldn’t believe that he said that. To mess with him was one thing, but to say that about you. When he registered the fight (which had earned Archie a black eye) and turned back to make sure you were okay, you were already gone. He went to look for you, but was dragged off by the principal along with Reggie and Archie. 

“Who and what the hell was that?” Veronica asked.

“Y/n, Jughead, Archie and I were best friends until Archie and Jughead had a huge falling out. I chose Archie’s side and Y/n said that she had to be there for Jughead. She and I tried to make it work, and she wasn’t mad at Archie. But then a month later her parents died in this really suspicious accident. Anyways, Archie and I went to the funeral, but since then the four of us have hardly spoke.” Betty explained.

“Wow. Were her and Archie ever a thing?”

“No, he was like her brother. She always knew how to get to him and bring him back down to earth. I think that is why he took it so hard when she went with Jughead. Obviously, he understood, but at the same time he thought she would have his back.” Betty continued.

“Old habits die hard” Veronica continued and the conversation took off to her date and Betty’s plans for the pep assemble.

---

To say that you were upset would be the understatement of the year. See there are very few people who knew the details of you parents death. Even though they had been ruled freak accidents, you had always believed there had been foul play involved. You had blamed yourself because you didn’t see any signs. You couldn’t even remember the last conversation you had with them. Back then you spent the majority of your time with your friends. You had assumed you had more time. Whatever. Reggie was an idiot who was probably high. You tried to calm yourself down and to think logically. But it was no use, so instead you decided to let it all out, which was exhausting. 

---

Archie had made it home and was icing his eye when his dad showed up. “Please tell me that you weren’t in another fight with Jughead.” he halfheartedly joked.

“Actually it was with Reggie” Archie said.

“Am I allowed to know what it was over?”

“It was about Y/n. Reggie said something about her parents. He took it too far Dad.” 

“Well, as far as reasons go, I guess that is a good one.” Mr. Andrews answered, “is she okay?” 

“I don’t know, Jug and I were forced to go to the Principal's office. He’s out looking for her now.”

“You know this is the most we have talked in a long time” 

“Well, can I ask you something else? Completely unrelated.” Archie asked

“Sure Son, what’s on your mind?” 

“There is this girl that I have been seeing. And something happened. I want to do the right thing, but this girl says that it will ruin everything. And it could mess things up, but how am I supposed to pretend that not doing the thing that I know I need to do is the right thing when it isn’t?” he asked.

Mr. Andrews returned a blank stare trying to follow what Archie had just said. 

“Never mind,” Archie replied, “I know that didn’t make any sense.” 

“Listen. You will do the right thing, even if it is the hard thing because that is who you are Archie. And if this girl is trying to talk you out of doing what you know is right, maybe she is the wrong girl to be worried about” Mr. Andrews answered.

“Thanks Dad, I have to go get ready for the Pep Assembly.”  he said as he went upstairs.

‘Have you heard anything yet?’ he text Jughead.

‘No, you?’ Jug sent back.

‘No, I hope she’s okay’ 

‘Me too, I keep you posted’

It was at the Pep assembly that he saw Miss Grundy and informed her that he would be going to Sheriff Keller in the morning and would keep her name out of it if at all possible. He was then waved over by Jughead who informed him that you had sent him a text that you were okay, just needed to clear your head, and would be at Pop’s later that night. Archie was so grateful to know that you were okay.

-----

You were sitting at Pop’s drinking a milkshake and snacking on fries when Veronica and Betty came in and asked to join you.

“I don’t believe we’ve actually met, my name is Veronica Lodge.” she greeted offering her hand. 

“Y/f/N Y/l/n. It’s a pleasure to meet you” you answer shaking hands.

“I’m sorry about what Reggie said earlier. Are you okay?” Betty asked.

“Yeah I’m fine, I just overreacted earlier.”

“Okay, I know I don’t know you, but you had every right to react like that. Reggie was a complete ass. If it were me, I probably wouldn’t have been able to walk away that easy.” Veronica added.

“Thanks Veronica, that means a lot” you say smiling up at her. 

“Is it just me or are the three of us going to be best friends now?” She asked.

And the three of you spent the next ten minutes getting to know each other and making plans to continue to get to know each other. Then two people walked into the dinner looking around for someone. 

“Looked what the cats’ dragged in” Veronica laughed.

“Are you guys going to join us?” Betty asked.

So Jughead sat next to you and Archie pulled a chair up to the end of the table. The five of you talked for hours. Telling embarrassing stories from your past, discussing classes and teachers, being normal teenagers for one night. By the end of the night, any dissonance between Jughead and Archie had completely disappeared. It was like the good old days, but with a new and interesting addition.

Jughead had went home and Veronica and Betty left together shortly after. So it was just you and Archie. The two of you had decided to start walking to his house, where he insisted you crash until morning. After all, there was a killer on the loose and his Dad missed you, etc. 

“I’m telling Sheriff Keller tomorrow. About Miss Grundy.  You and my Dad convinced me.” he said.

“I’m glad Archie, I knew you would do the right thing.” 

“Thank you for that” 

“For what?” 

“For always believing in me, even when nobody else does. For being there for me, and listening to me, and reminding me of who I am when I forget. I was such a shitty friend to you. After that fight with Jughead and you didn’t deserve it. I should have been there for you more with your parents. I-” he started.

“Archie it’s okay. Your here now” you interrupt. 

“I am. So if you ever want to talk about anything. Or if you need literally anything, I’m here and I’m not going anywhere.” he said as he opened the door to his house.

“Archie it’s almost 1 am on a school night, where have you been? I’ve called you like four times” his dad lectured from the kitchen.

“Sorry Mr. Andrews, that is my bad. We were at Pop’s catching up and lost track of time” you answered. 

“Oh Y/n, it’s great to see you.- Archie go grab some blankets and a pillow for Y/n.- How have you been?” he asked redirecting his attention to you. 

You were about to answer when you were nearly tackled to the ground with love. “Hey Vegas” you cooed. 

“I’m good Mr. Andrews, we can catch up tomorrow. I don’t want to keep you up when you have work. Plus it has been a long day” you yawn. 

“Okay kiddo, get some rest” he said. 

You nodded and went to the couch were Archie laid out a blanket, pillow, and a pair of pjs that you had left there almost a year and a half ago. Seeing that he still had them made you smile.

You changed into them and went back to the couch looking through your phone before going to bed. You sent Jughead a text telling him where you were. Then you received a text from Archie asking if you were okay or if you needed anything. 

Truth be told, you wanted to talk to him about your meltdown earlier. But this wasn’t the time. And it was probably better to just bury it and allow everyone to move forward. Things were finally good again.
