His girl next door

Truth in darkness

As we sit in the blue and gold looking at the murder board we set up ourselves with the help of Kevin after someone broke into sherif keller's house and stole all the evidence "this is how dad set up his Jason Blossom murder board before it was trashed" Kevin says "any leads on who did that? Or what they were looking for?" Kevin shakes his head as I play with the hem of a shirt Toni let me borrow for school "nope.. no fingerprints. But they stole a bunch of files and background checks and all the audio tapes and videos from the interviews" all of a sudden the door opens "hi Betty" a boy says while smiling at her "Trev hi" she smiles back and stands quickly catching Jugheads attention quickly as I roll my eyes at his possessiveness over a girl whkk on doesn't even know who or what she wants

"Sorry to interrupt.." Trev says "oh no it's uh. It's ok" she reassured him "we are just working on.." Jughead cuts her off being rude to Trev "our murder board" he says quite rudely while glaring over her shoulder at the poor boy as Betty nods not knowing how to recover the conversation after that "well I just wanted to make sure we're still on for tomorrow?" Betty nods enthusiastically "absolutely it's a date" that sentence gets everyone's attention quickly and making Jughead sitting up straighter as the room stays quiet and I scoff "I mean I'll.. I'll see you there bye" she says awkwardly as they say their goodbyes I roll my eyes "goin on a date with Trev? Does mamma cooper know about that?" Kevin asks "I'm not on house arrest kev" I stand up suddenly "but she sure doesn't know which boy to pick" I walk out not looking back hearing footsteps behind me

I look to my side seeing Jughead beside me looking serious "okay what was that about?" He asks with a slight attitude "oh I'm the one who deserves this conversation? What about you jug?!" I say my eyes going wide "what are you talking about?" I scoff "you tell me you like me and you want to be with me because you don't know how things will work out with this "other girl" and to find out the other girl is Betty. You're here leading me on while waiting for the sweet girl next door to make her fucking choice jug" I say my voice slightly rising with each sentence. His face goes soft realizing what he's done "I haven't chosen Betty I told you I like you and I want to be with-" I put my hand up to stop him "it's not about what you say it's about how you act when she's around you hardly look at me and when the word 'date' was mentioned between her and that dude Trev you got all... territorial like you're actually dating her... Jughead I may be new here but I'm not blind and I'm not stupid I can see your feelings for her growing the more you guys hang out and that's amazing for you but I don't want to be a second choice for anyone now if you'll excuse me.." I walk away before he can respond walking out of the school walking until I found myself outside the wyrm without realizing it

As I walk in it goes a bit quiet and Toni walks up to me "should you be in school good girl?" She jokes while hugging me "I could ask you the same thing" I say with a soft voice she pulls back still holding me a bit "what happened?" I look around for the boys "they aren't here they actually went to school shocking enough" she pulls me to a private area and we sit down as I tell her everything with Jughead and Betty

~3rd person pov~ (switching it up for this part)

Back at Riverdale high Betty, Veronica, Jughead, and Kevin are walking in the bleachers towards Archie talking about anything and everything
"Betty, you're positively radiating Nicholas Sparks. Tel me everything about this Trev" Veronica says "oh, there's nothing to tell just one of Betty's sources there's nothing romantic in the offing" Veronica turns to face Kevin as he finishes talking "why is everything weird here by cant a date just be a date" she asks sitting down and Jughead remains quiet not wanting to chime in on the conversation or his jealousy would show "what about you Archie? How's life in a PG world?" Everyone looks at Veronica confused "PG. Post-Grundy. What too soon?" She jokes eating a fry "coach Clayton says I have a shot at being varsity captain. So I'm not thinking of anything else right now" he says looking at his cards "and you're back to being boring" Veronica says and Betty leans forward "are you maybe throwing yourself into football as a way to avoid your feelings?" She asks Archie "I'm not avoiding anything Betty I'm trying to get my life back on track" Archie says looking at her

~back to y/n pov~

As I take a deep breath my phone dinging soon after "hold on it's Veronica.." I say annoyed because if the rant I went on with Toni and she still looks like she's processing it

~Texts~
V: hey we are going to Cheryl's for s sleep over on the night before the memorial.

Y: okay couldn't that have waited till we got home?

V: we'll I was going to tell you in school but you disappeared and no one knows to where.

I roll my eyes

Y: fine but let's get one thing straight I know you act like you care but you told me your truth the night we saw the movie so don't pretend now.

V: look I was angry and I said things I shouldn't have and I have done things in the past to hurt you.. let me make it up to you. Tonight. Please.

Y: possibly I'll let you at pop's around 8pm

V: see you there

~Texts end~

I place my phone in my bag on silent and Toni looks at me "okay let me see if I got this correct you like Jones- sorry Jughead and he said he likes you but when this Betty girl is around he acts different?" I nod "and I feel like he's leading me on and when Betty finally says she wants him I'll be left in the dust like a pile of nothing.." I say looking down Toni sighs "well you didn't hear this from me but I know a serpent who has eyes for you. And has already talked to FP and the others about having you join us." My head snaps up "wait what?!" Suddenly the doors of the wyrm bust open and Jughead storms inside and his eyes scan they wyrm until they lan on me "of course you're here. Let's go everyone is worried since you disappeared" he grabs my bag motioning for me to get up

I roll my eyes "why are you PRETENDING to care jug? I know the truth and you don't want to admit it to yourself you're just trying to use me as a distraction until Betty finally gets out of her slutty ways and picks you or makes you think she will but you know what?! I'm not waiting around for you to try and fall back on me because she chose yet another person over you" I snatch my bag from him "I'm staying then getting a ride back by anyone but you" I glare and Toni looks to the door as it opens again my eyes not leaving Jughead who has a hurt look on his face suddenly I feel someone standing behind me "what's going on here Jones?" Says the voice belonging to sweet pea he drapes a arm over my shoulder and I look to Toni who just nods her head once smiling at me and I look down blushing "I was taking y/n home to her family who can't get ahold of her" he snaps as he grabs my wrist "maybe I don't want to talk to them!" I yank my arm away "my so called father is a criminal. My 'mother' takes care of his dirty work and tries to drag us into it and my sister" I laugh dryly "where do I start with her. She has hated me since day 1 when I was taken in and given a new life I finally thought things would get better Veronica would bully the shit out of me and make my life a living hell and nobody cared. not one fucking bit. I ended up dating the son of one of the most wealthy man in town and she couldn't stand it so she did what she does best seduced and stole him. Turned him against me and when I thought he dumped her and was taking me back. She got him to beat me and drug me to the point where I still can't remember shit so her parents would throw me out for being on drugs and staying out late. So their attention would be all hers.. but then her father got arrested and we moved to riverdale I was happy because I thought the abuse.. the games and the lies would stop but you know I guess they follow my family wherever they go" I feel tears streaming down my face as the wyrm went quiet listening to me "so let them be worried I don't care anymore Veronica knows where to meet me at 8 now leave me alone jug go be with Betty, worry about her" I walk away with the others following close behind me to sit in our area we normally sit in as Jughead leaves

I sit by sweet pea who puts an arm around me as I lean my head against him not wanting to cry in front of everyone soon things go back to normal in the wyrm and everyone is doing their own thing. The younger serpents are talking about something I'm not listening to but I slowly drift to sleep while sweet pea rubs my arm.

(A/n okay I'm getting more into my ideas now please don't hate me!!!! This is going to get a bit more dramatic ya know how riverdale is but I hope you're all liking it so far ilyyyy)
