Betty got off on her floor, fishing around in her purse for the card key Ronnie had handed her earlier. She put the card in the reader, and it turned green to let her in. She had only opened the door a crack however, when she heard noises. She stayed put in the hall and listened.
“Ahhh.... Archie. Archie... yes....” It was Veronica's voice, and it sounded breathless.
“Ronnie, I want you.” Archie's voice came next. “Yes, take your shirt off for me, baby.”
She heard the shush of fabric falling, then the smacking noises of kissing. But then she heard shuffling and the kiss breaking.
“Wait, Archiekins. I treated your wounds without asking questions, but you have a black eye! What in the world were you and Jughead fighting about?”
Betty had to smirk. The black eye was her handiwork after all. He's just lucky his nose is intact. A realization set in that made her almost sick. Veronica was Archie's favorite because she put out. Betty never did. Not with Archie. She didn't want to until she knew that he was her steady boyfriend. But Ronnie on the other hand was sexing him up. It all made sense. But she couldn't hate Ronnie for that, just Archie for choosing that way.
“Oh, it was nothing.” Betty heard a step of him coming closer.
“Tell me, or else I am kicking you out right now, and the shirt is going back on.” She imagined Ronnie pointing her finger at him dangerously.
“Well. I went out to the courtyard and you'll never believe what I saw. Jughead was forcing himself on poor Betty! He was trying to kiss her and she was telling him to stop... so I just got mad and confronted him. Then he started to hit me, I couldn't just let him hit me could I?” He recited that lie so masterfully it made Betty think of all the lies he told her to stand her up. She gritted her teeth in anger. How dare he slander Jughead that way!
“You dear man. I am so glad you defended Betty! That gross Jughead doesn't deserve her. She is totally out of his league!”
Betty had had enough. She walked into the room. It feel silent, as both Ronnie and Archie turned to look at her. Archie's eyes grew wide at the sight of her and he knew she was furious. With angry stomps, she advanced on him and slapped him right across a bruise Jughead had given him on his cheek.
“You know why I did that.” She growled. Then she turned to Veronica, who was only in her bra and handed her the discarded shirt.
“Just so you know, Ronnie, Archie came out furious and claimed that Jughead stole his girl. Then when Jughead argued with him, Archie started hitting him. He deserved everything he got, and he's a dirty lying rat fink. Worse than Reggie Mantel. You'd do better without him too.” She grabbed her overnight back from the floor and started to leave. Before she did, she turned around to face them. “And I love Jughead Jones, so don't you ever slander him like that again.”
And she was out of the door. She left before she could even hear what transpired between Ronnie and Archie. It was the most curious liberating feeling. She truly loved Jughead. And now that she admitted it, a weight was lifted off of her. She was done with Archie for good.
New doors were opening in her life. She was no longer 'Archie's girl'. She was 'Betty Cooper'. And she suspected, deep down, Betty had always loved Jughead. Because he was a safe place she could go to when she felt overwhelmed or sad or scared. He was her rock, and no matter what she could depend on him. Just like she needed to depend on him now, because she was out of a place to stay.
She pulled out her phone and pressed 5, his speed-dial. It rang a few times before an exhausted 'hello?' came from the other line.
“Juggie? It's Betty. Do you have room for one more?” She bit her lip hopefully.
“Yeah. What's up? Something happen with Ronnie?” He seemed suddenly more at attention.
“No. Not really. Archie was there when I arrived, and I may or may not have slapped him.”
A laugh sounded from the other side of the line and she smiled. “You'll have to tell me this one personally. Come on up. I'm in room 305.”
They disconnected and she took the elevator up to his room. She knocked on the door, and it was answered promptly. She was greeted with the sight of Jughead in his boxers once more, this time green plaid, and her heart sped up.
“You know, if you started going out in public that way, you'd have a hard time keeping the ladies off of you.” She walked past him and into the suite.
“Like I want ladies on me.” He grumbled, closing the door. She started pulling out hair pins, letting her hair fall down her back. Her dress was beautiful, but stiff. She wanted the thing off, but she'd have to wait for a minute.
“Whatever you say, Casanova.” She joked, using her fingers to muss her hair around. It formed a sexy mane around her head, and Jughead was tempted to tell her to stop.
“So, what happened?” He asked, flopping back down on the bed and flipping through channels on the TV.
“Well, I started to open my door and I heard noises. Voices soon joined and I realized that I was walking into some hot and heavy pre-sex foreplay.”
“Oh no. He didn't.” Jughead sat back up and searched her face worriedly. “You seem awfully unphased.”
“Well, it just made me realize why Archie always preferred Ronnie to me. I never put out.” She shrugged. “Mystery solved, and I don't regret it one bit. I wasn't about to give myself to some guy who didn't go steady with me, not even Archie.”
Relief seemed to soften his features. “Good. I'm glad. You deserve better than that for your first time.”
She blushed. “Anyways. Veronica wanted to know why you two fought and he tried to avoid the subject. Finally she threatened to put her shirt back on, and he relented. You'll never believe what he told her!”
“Try me.” Jughead raised a brow.
“He told her that you tried to force yourself on me and he was defending me! That you threw the first punch! I got so mad that I stormed in there, slapped him, and told Ronnie the truth. Then I grabbed my bag and left, and here we are.” She shrugged. I'd rather be here anyways.
“Ouch.” Jughead ran a hand over his face. “Talk about betrayal. I didn't think Archie would say that. And to the biggest gossip in the school.”
“I know, Juggie.” She patted his arm comfortingly. “But look at the bright side, he probably lost Ronnie too! I told her that she was better off without him and that he was a bigger rat fink than Reggie Mantel.”
“Double Ouch. I doubt he's that bad.” He grinned, feeling a little better knowing that Betty defended him so much.
Quiet entered the room, and they both allowed the silence to carry for a while before one of them spoke up. It was Betty. “Jughead. What did you mean earlier?”
“What? What did I mean by what?” He asked, his stomach hallowing out.
“When you said that Archie stole your girl.” Betty tilted her head at him, wanting him to clarify. Needing him to clarify.
“It's not really important, Bets.” He tried to brush it off by clicking through more channels.
“It is. Tell me.” She leaned over towards him, her cleavage unintentionally coaxing him. He swallowed then squeezed his eyes shut.
“It's....” He sighed. “Don't blame me if this ruins our friendship, Betty.”
“Nothing could ruin our friendship.” She replied, deadpan.
“Try this: I loved you since we were kids, okay? But not like a friend. Like a boyfriend. I would always look forward to the nights when you'd come to my room and we'd talk and I would just love you more. Then along came Archie, and all of a sudden you were more interested in him then you were talking to me about the things that frightened you, and things that made you happy. But you both were so dear to me I didn't want to ruin it with how I felt. I wanted you guys to work out... but he just treated you so badly...” Realizing he was rambling, the threw up his hands in exasperation. “I am Fanny. Okay? I've always loved you and I was willing to let you be happy with someone else for your sake.”
