Mila, Jughead and Betty arrived at FP's trailer. Jughead had begged Mila to come with them, She had no idea why but he was her best friend and she loved him, So she'd do anything for them. Jughead opened the door to FP's trailer and Mila could see the bottle of beer and liquor that littered the floor. "Jughead, Mila.... And friend." FP greeted as they walked through the door.

"Hey FP." Mila smiled. 

"I'm surprised to see you two here."

"Uh, Dad, Betty Cooper, Betty this is my dad." Jughead said nervously. 

"Nice to meet you Mr. Jones, Officially." Betty smiled politely. 

"And you, So your Betty, Jughead's girlfriend?" FP asked, He watched as Mila shifted uncomfortably. 

"Dad..." Jughead warned. Betty smiled slightly at Jughead not denying it. 

"Mm, Why don't you all sit down?" FP said moving some pillows and cleaning up some bottles. Mila laughed shaking her head. 

"This isn't really a social call." Jughead stated. Jughead watched as Mila grabbed a trash bag, Picking up bottles. Jughead smiled slightly remembering when him and Mila would clean the house so FP wouldn't be mad at Jughead for not doing it.

"No, I didn't think this was. After Archie showed up at the bar and Mila over here had to keep a couple of Serpents from kicking his ass."  Fp laughed looking over at Mila, "M, You don't have to do that." He chuckled. 

"Oh shut it and tell then what they need to know." She smiled. He laughed and saluted. 

"Uh, We know the serpents had some drug thing going on with Jason Blossom." Jughead stated, Leaning up against the wall. 

"What? Where'd you hear that?" FP asked.

"Jason's girl, Betty's sister." Mila said from the kitchen, "Damn FP, I would've thought you drank the whole Wrym already."  Fp laughed at Mila's comment shaking his head.

"Of course you'd think that, Anyways. The kid needed money. A clean-cut Northsider like that, Nobody would suspect a thing. We helped him, He helped us."  FP shrugged.

"Jeez dad, Did you tell the cops?" 

"Really? What do you think?" FP chuckled.

"Well they know now, Polly, She's a rat. She told them." Mila said placing the bag down. Fp looked around the trailer, Shocked at how clean it now looked. 

"Polly is not a rat, Angel. But if they haven't been here yet, They will be." Jughead said, Looking at Mila who now sat down in the chair across from FP.

"Did you speak to Jason personally?"  Betty asked.

"My guys gave him some product, When it wasn't delivered we figured he we took off with our stuff, Until-"

"Until Jason's body was found at Sweetwater." Mila whispered. Jughead looked at Mila sighing and then back to his dad, He wanted to ask a certain question, But didn't know if he should. FP and Mila noticed and sighed, Mila shook her head at Jughead knowing what he wanted to ask.

"Anything else?" Fp asked, Looking to Mila and then to Jughead. 

"Did you have anything to do with the murder of Jason Blossom." Jughead asked, Mila sucked in a breathe closing her eyes and a look of disbelief took over his face. 

"Do you really believe that i could do that?" Fp asked, He looked to Jughead and then Mila, A girl who was like his daughter, Someone he knew he could depend on no matter what and he knew would be able to run the Serpents when he was gone. Mila looked at him and shook her head and he relaxed a little. 

"It's the dark ages dad, I don't really know what to think anymore." Jughead explained. He looked over to Mila who looked sad, He wanted to ask why but he knew why. It was because he questioned Fp. 

"Look, I know i haven't been the best father Jughead. No getting around it. But i'm no killer."  FP said, Locking eyes with Jughead.

"What about bec?" Betty asked, Mila stood up, FP standing as well. Jughead pushed Betty behind him. 

"What did you say?"

"It was just a q-question, I have to make sure... F-for Polly." Betty stuttered.

"Bring my brother up like that again, And i swear, You won't have Jughead to be your shield. He didn't even know the kid." She stated. Betty nodded and Mila opened the door to the trailer and walked across the small dirt path to her trailer. She stomped up the steps, Throwing open the door and sitting on the couch next to her brother. 

"Woah, What's got you all riled up?" 

"Stupid Northside with their 'We just have to make sure' bullshit, And there perfect faces and stupid blonde hair and ponytails that make then look like a horse." She said crossing her arms. 

"It sounds like your talking about someone specific.... Are you?" Bec asked, She huffed and stared at the small wall in front of them for a minute.

"Maybe." He laughed a little bit and she gave him a moppy look, "It's not funny."

"I know, Come here, Tell me what's wrong." He said patting the cushion next to him. She scooted over to his side and laid her head on his shoulder.

"I have this feeling and i don't know what it is, I feel like i'm breaking from the inside and i don't even think there's a word for whatever that is." She said frustrated. 

"Actually there is a word for that, It's love, M. Your in love with Jughead. Okay? If your looking for the word that means caring about someone beyond all rationality and wanting him to have everything he wants, No matter how much it kills you. It's love. You love him Mila, Just admit it." he said shaking his head, Holding her head in his hands. 

"I love my best friend..."
