The next day, Veronica was already on her way to school.

It was the first day of snow, and it snowed hard last night.

Veronica was all geared up for the winter. She had a heavy ass jacket, and high boots.

She called an uber, and it came to pick her up.

Meanwhile, Jughead was also getting ready for school.

It was freezing cold in the bunker. A little too cold.

Although, his jacket wasn't warm enough. And the blankets of his bed were too thin.

Atleast his beanie is keeping his ears warm.

After school, Veronica was in her warm, cozy house. While Jughead was in his freezer.

Jughead was fully clothed, and was wrapped up in all the blankets he had. But it was still so cold.

His nose was red from the temperature, and he was almost shivering. Not to mention his undying hunger.

He was too cold to get up, so he had to risk his starvation to keep warm.

Cheryl walked into the well air conditioned house of Veronica Lodge.

"Ooh, it's warm in here." She said, taking off her coat.

"'Course." Veronica smiled.

"Anyways," Cheryl sat down on the couch, "can't find Jughead?"

"I did," Veronica said. "But, he won't come back."

"What do you mean?" asks Cheryl.

"He just moved into the bunker." Veronica answered.

"Oh," Cheryl had thought Jughead died or something.

The two had their playdate, talking, and talking, and talking.

At one point, they had hot chocolate, but other than that, they were just talking.

Another day of school has passed. Another day closer to the weekend.

Veronica was at home, drinking hot chocolate.

She was watching a movie on the television. A romance.

"But Benjamin, it's too dangerous out there!" Olivia cried.

"I know, my love. But I must go out, and fight. For you," Benjamin held Olivia's hand.

Olivia squeezed his hand, "but I've already chosen you."

Benjamin's brows furrowed, "you're father dislikes me, Olivia."

"I know, but I want to be with you. I don't care what my father says!" Olivia shouted.

"I will not marry whoever my father forced me to marry. No matter how much it affects him!" She added.

Benjamin put his hand on her round face, "my dear, you are so fearless, and brave. That's one of the reasons why I love you. And I will never stop loving you, even if I die."

"What?"

Benjamin ran out the house, joining the war outside of it.

"No!" Olivia looked out the window, seeing that her beloved has immediately been beat to a pulp.

"Benjamin's weak," Veronica said, although her vision was blurry, thanks to her tears.

She sniffled, wiping her tears away.

Veronica made herself some popcorn, then continued to watch the corny, yet sad romantic movie.

Meanwhile, Jughead was in the bunker.

He was wrapped in layers of clothes, and thin blankets. He was still very cold.

He couldn't type, either. His hands were numb.

Jughead was shivering, even rubbing his hands together.

Suddenly, the wind outside blew stronger.

Jughead was freezing he felt he was going to freeze.

His body couldn't take the cold, the unexpected happened.
