Office Romance

Summary: Sweet Pea doesn't believe in Valentine's Day, at least he didn't until he met Y/N.

Sweet Pea slipped into the staff room, relieved to be away from his desk for ten minutes and finally grab a much needed coffee only to find his two colleagues, Jughead and Archie, huddled in a corner together.

"What are you pair giggling like school girls over?" He eyed them cautiously, wondering if he really wanted to know.

"We're just doing our office Valentines." Archie grinned, holding up a sealed pink envelope before posting it into an overly decorated box. "Obviously Jughead is sending an anonymous one to Betty again."

"Shut up Arch, at least I'm not sending one to Ronnie while still sleeping with Josie." Jughead shoved Archie out of the way before posting his own envelope. "Who you sending yours to Pea?"

"I'm not." Sweet Pea shrugged, turning to make a beeline for the coffee pot, his distaste for the holiday evident on his face. "I don't do Valentine's Day. It's just another excuse for shops to scam idiots like you two into paying ridiculous prices for chocolates and flowers."

"Well aren't you a ray of sunshine, lighten up Pea." Jughead laughed at his negative outlook, walking past him to grab his lunch before turning back with a smirk. "Besides I'm sure a certain brunette/blonde/red head could change your mind."

"Yeah it's pretty obvious you like her." Archie joined in with the teasing, his eyebrows raising suggestively.

"I don't like Y/N." Sweet Pea grunted in annoyance, his eyes refusing to met either of theirs.

"If you don't like her then how did you know we were talking about Y/N?" Jughead stuck his tongue out, both him and Archie bouncing off each other.

"Remind me how old you two are again?" He jabbed, desperate for them to change the subject.

"Pea's got a crush!" Archie sang, almost as if he'd forgotten they were actually adults now rather than kids back in high school. "I wonder if she'll send you one?"

"Knock it off!" Sweet Pea's anger began to bubble to the surface as he prepared to storm out before Jug hit his arm.

"Here she is now, should we ask her?" Jug grinned as he rushed to hold the door up for you. "Hey Y/N!"

"Uh hey guys." You looked around awkwardly to find all three guys staring back at you.

"We were just wondering if you're sending a Valentine's to anyone this year?" Jughead followed your every move, sneaking a knowing glance at an embarrassed Sweet Pea.

"I guess you caught me in the act." You laughed as you pulled the pink envelope from your pocket, waving it in the air and Sweet Pea felt his heart rate pick up.

"Oh, so are you gonna tell us who the lucky guy is?" Archie peered over your shoulder, desperate to see who's name was scribbled on the front and you couldn't help but laugh as you batted him off. "Or girl?"

"Well actually... since you're here I may as well deliver it in person rather than post it." A light blush coloured your cheeks as you stopped in front of Sweet Pea and handed him the envelope, an excited Jughead and Archie watching in the background. "Happy early Valentine's Day Pea."

"I uh, thank you." He couldn't help but smile as words failed him, unable to say what he really wanted to as you both stared at each other in silence, only looking away when Jug and Archie's whispering became too loud.

"I should get back to work." You shyly ducked out of the room, biting your lower lip as you shared one last look with Sweet Pea.

"Damn Pea, is that a smile I see?" Archie nudged Jughead, pointing over at Sweet Pea as the pair went back to their teasing. Sweet Pea simply gulped as he watched you walk away.

"I think I need your guys help." Sweet Pea groaned as he run a hand through his hair, not believing what he was about to say next. "How do I ask Y/N out?"

You walked into your office two days later to find a bunch a roses and a handful of helium filled balloons covering your desk. You smiled to yourself, a swarm of butterfly's forming in your stomach as you reached for the card.

"Happy Valentine's Day." Sweet Pea's warm voice made you jump and he couldn't help but laugh as you turned to face him, his tall frame leaning against your door.

"You did all this?" You blinked back your surprise, trying to hide your excitement.

"Thought I'd follow in your foot steps and deliver this in person." A small blush swept over his cheeks, the tips of his ears turning red as he held a pink envelope up, identical to the one you'd given him a couple of days prior.

"This is probably the sweetest thing anyone's ever done for me." You confessed with a shy smile, still unable to believe this was happening. You'd formed a crush on Sweet Pea on your very first day at the office, with his big brown eyes and locks of dark hair that had a tendency of falling onto his face. You'd never imagined that maybe he might feel the same.

"Well I kind of had help from Jughead and Archie, I was hoping you'd be free tonight?" He avoided making eye contact, choosing to stare at his hands instead as he rambled on. "I thought this might be too much, is it too much?- It's too much isn't it-"

You couldn't help but laugh at the nervous wreck in front of you, and in the moment you found an ounce of courage to step forward and plant your lips on his, the connection stopping him trailing off. Sweet Pea smiled into the kiss, his hand coming up to cup your cheek before you pressed your forehead to his. "Pick me up at 7? I'll text you my address."

"7 it is." He grinned as he backed away, awkwardly bumping into the door frame, your hand coming up to cover your mouth as you stifled a laugh before he turned to leave.
