Bughead Moments in Riverdale that Also Happened in the Comics: Season 1 (Part 1)
Tumblr media
In honor of the series finale of Riverdale, here are some Bughead moments from the show that also (sort of) happened in the comics:
Tumblr media

Tumblr media
♥ Jughead gives Betty a surprise kiss.
Comics: The Ol’ Bawl Game, Betty and Me #14 (1968).
Show: S01E06: Faster, Pussycats! Kill! Kill!, 2017.
Tumblr media
BONUS: While it isn’t technically a “Hey there, Juliet” moment, Jughead was really the Romeo to Betty’s Juliet in a school production of the Shakespeare classic as featured on the cover of Jughead #315 (1981).
Tumblr media
Another thing, in episode 4, Cheryl referred to the gang as “sad Breakfast Club” so here’s an alternative cover for Archie #28 (2018) that was illustrated by Dan Schoening. It that depicts the Riverdale gang as characters from the John Hughes classic (although this one features Reggie instead of Kevin).
Tumblr media
Speaking of pop culture references, Jughead also referred to them as the “Scooby gang” so here’s the core four (and Hot Dog!) dressed up as those meddling kids in Archie’s Weird Mysteries #6 (2000).

I haven’t been watching and I don’t plan to until the shit gets sorted out, but I’ve been lurking and honestly I’m disappointed with the way TBK has been handled. When he’s introduced as part of Betty’s time-skip backstory, it’s clearly a traumatic, horrific experience that she’s had to go through and we see how badly it’s affected her.
Now, from what I’ve picked up from s6, the MO of the killer seems to have completely changed and he’s just out here vibing? It’s being handled so flippantly and I feel like that’s such an insult to what was established in early s5 and what we saw of Betty in that season. In the end, it’s turned into a joke because these writers are fully incapable of carrying a story through and maintaining a consistent tone. This is not at all surprising but I’m really disappointed by it.

I’m sure someone has already caught this parallel but “the lovebirds” being the unofficial code name for both Jopper and Lumax in the finales for s3 and s4 respectively is wild to me especially because neither couple is officially together at the time and also both make plans for when they get out safe but the plans don’t happen bc one of them “dies”

Cole x Reader Jealousy part 1
Warning cussing
Being Coles girlfriend is hard, no one really knows about us everyone thinks him and Lill is dating. He doesn’t want to tell the media so my life isn’t ruined by cameras in my face. So I can finish college.
But it hurts to see them on the covers of magazines as the cutest couple of the year when I’m here in the shadows.
I love this guy but I feel as if I’m nothing to him.
“ look cole is on the cover of people magazine” my bestie said I looked down to see Cole smile with Lill on his arm.
“B/f/n I can’t do this anymore” I said throwing the magazine
“ what do you mean” she asked
“ I love him but I can’t see this stuff anymore” I said
“ tell him how you feel then” she said
“ I have he says it’s just for the show but I hate it” i said I lay down on my bed looking up at the ceiling.
“ well isn’t he coming home for the holidays”she asked
“ no I’m flying to Hawaii to be with him but guess what” i said
“ what” she said
“ Lill is coming” I said
“ what really” she said
“ yeah when ever we do something she has 2 be there so they get their fucking picture taken “ I said
“ that’s so fucked up, should you even go” she asked
“ I’m gonna go and talk to him and try to work things out” I said
* the trip
I make it o Hawaii and I get drive to our hotel, where Cole was waiting for me in out hotel room, which was more like a suite.
“Y/n “ he said as he engulfed me in a hug, he kissed me, we pulled away and I smiled.
When I’m alone with him I forget about our third wheel, it makes me feel like we did when we first meet in college.
“ Hey” I said
“ you wanna go to the beach” he asked
I smiled
“ sure love to” I said
“ I’ll go tell Lill we are going” he said leaving the room
“ of fucking course she’s coming” I said
I got dressed in my
Black bikini with cut outs.
“ you look beautiful” I hear Cole say behind me
“ thank you” I said I turn to see him and her.
White striped bikini.
“ oh hi Lill” I said
“ hi y/n” she said
“ I’ll go get changed” Cole said
The room fell quite
“ so your almost finished school right” she asked
“ yeah a few months and I’ll be finished” I said
Cole came back in red swim trunks.
I hugged him and kissed him, I wanted to remind her he’s mine.
Tumblr media
“ what was that for” he asked
“ I’ve just missed just so much” I said
he smirked and kissed him.
“ umm maybe we should go” she said
“ yeah your right” he said
“ one sec Lill we will catch up to you” I said
She walked out of the room. I turned to Cole.
“ what is it” he asked
I knew she was still at the door listening.
“When we get back cole” I said
“ yes honey” he said
“ I want it to be a night like the Hot tub night last November” I said smirking
I saw him gulp.
“I’d want that to, fuck don’t get me started on how much I want that” he said and kissed me
I kissed him back but pulled away.
Let’s not keep her waiting I said smirking wiggling my butt as I walked away
Tumblr media
We walk to the beach all three of us and of course the paparazzi show up and they have to act like a couple. They held hand and were all lovey dovey .
Tumblr media Tumblr media
“ I think I’m going back to the hotel” I said
“ what why “ cole asked he asked
“ I’m tired I lied” i said
“Then maybe we should all go back” he said
“ no would wanna ruin your photos “ I said then ran off
Cole ran after me. I slammed the hotel door closed.
He soon walked in
“ what was that
“ this Lill thing I can’t,-“ I started to say
“ you know it’s only for the show” he said
“ that may be the case but it hurts me, she’s are third wheel when we go anywhere so y’all get photographed together not us, it’s like you are ashamed of me.” I said he took my hand in his
“ I’m not ashamed, Y/n I love you, I dont want cameras in your face, I want you to have a normal life” he said
“ my life isn’t gonna be fucking normal I’m in love with fucking Cole Sprouse. I want to be the one in the picture with you” I said “ she totally in love with you and I feel As if you guys are in the relationship and I’m the third fucking wheel. “
He kissed me hard and passionately.
“ your my only girl I’m gonna stop this ok I promise you this ok” he said
I kisses him again pulling him close

As we approach the return of the show, I made a wish list of sorts - I’m sure many have their own but this is mine lol
Bughead related things I need in 5B:
A scene in the Blue and Gold - it could be any scene but if one thing led to another and it became that kinda scene I wouldn’t be disappointed 😏
Betty wearing Jughead’s glasses - please ❤️
An explanation of Jughead’s tattoos - at least the one that is clearly over his heart - and preferably this explanation is to Betty and not just in some off handed comment to another character.
More information on Betty’s time in captivity- does she have scars? Will we get an explanation of those if she does? What about her nightmares? Will Jughead be witness to one? I know I’ve written about Jug witnessing her nightmares several times and so many of my favorite fic writers have as well - please let it be canon ❤️
Many scenes of them at school together - maybe even a few whispers from students about said teachers after a few episodes where there are some longing stares and the students are just like “what’s up with Mr. Jones and Ms. Cooper?”
Betty wearing the S shirt again as a call back to so many times - but maybe a specific call back to 5.04 - with a “is that ok?” And him changing the line saying “of course” or “it was always yours anyway”
More information on Jughead’s novel - I need details ie dedication - what is it? I think I’ve written what it could say in three fics now lol
More Toffee Cooper - this cat better be alive.
A hug - like a long, drawn out hug where we get to see both parties reactions
Crying in front of one another - I need tears whether it’s because of the breakup or their shared traumas or for some outside reason, I need the tears and the subsequent comfort afterwards
Line call backs to “I never stopped loving you” ; “hey Juliet” ; “I know you’d be the one to find me” ; “you’re brilliant” ; “stay” ; “also...”

Jughead Jones?🥰🥰🥰
favourite thing about them?
everything? i don’t know this one is so hard since jughead is my favourite lmao. if i had to pick out of everything it’d probably be his loyalty, i guess. jughead is a good person. he’s loyal to betty, the serpents, archie, his dad, etc… even if he’s made some questionable decisions he is a good man. i like good people.
least favourite thing about them?
the weirdo speech was cringe as fuck dude.
favourite line?
since he’s the narrator i’m doing a narrator and a character line.
favourite narrator line;
“those kids in the fairytales who go into the woods… they don’t always come back the same. they’re always changed in some fundamental way. sometimes for the better. more often for the worse. that’s the common misconception about fairytales. they very rarely have a happy ending.”
favourite character line;
honestly everything he says to bret in s4 is gold but here are some highlights.
“yeah because i just killed you” / “i’m sorry, bret, i can’t hear you. because you’re dead.”
“so why don’t you try writing a compelling drama instead of starting it?”
“i’m a better competitor. and i’m a better man.”
but of course the iconic “hey there juliet” as an absolute favourite.
brOTP?
toni. she’s a bro deal with it.
OTP?
betty cooper my beloved.
nOTP?
archie 🤢
random headcanon?
he likes his beanie so much because jellybean gave it to him.
unpopular opinion?
he should have dropped archie as his friend in season one. archie has been a shit friend to him throughout the whole show and he shouldn’t have been putting up with it.
song i associate with them?
the unforgiven iii by metallica.
favourite picture of them?
any of these (but mostly the first)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
send me a character…

Riverdalepromptathon: week one
Red+Pop’s Chock’lit Shoppe
Tumblr media
“Hey Betts, did you pick up Jules from day care?”
“No, I’m in the office and what are you doing there in the middle of the day?”
“The dinner was empty so pops gave me my lunch break earlier, I thought in would visit her” his voice a little frantic now. “She’s not here Betts” he finished in a whisper
“What...what do you mean she’s not there? Did you check properly, maybe she’s in the washroom. Did you check in with mrs.Pierce?”
“No she isn’t here”
“Okay so before we start panicking...”
“Hey mister Jones, Juliet is just over at the ball pool.” She heard the old woman’s voice over the phone.
At the same time she got a notification on the computer screen in front of her with Juliet’s taped up face plaster over it. Her face paled at the sight.
She didn’t notice her partner detective mason who was now beside her and took the phone from her.
“Jughead, you need to come here now”
Jughead rushed over to the FBI headquarters as fast as his legs would take him. He knew something was wrong, Juliet was not at the ball pool.
“Moose where’s betty? Is it Juliet? Is she okay?”
“Jughead, before I let you go in there, I need you to remember this is our job and we will find her.”
“What are you talking about?!” Not waiting for a reply, he rushed into to Betty’s office who was just as pale as when she first got the news.
He ran to her side and pulled her into his arms. She clutched onto his t-shirt and sobbed into his chest.
Pulling her more firmly against him he turned back to Moose “Can someone tell me what the hell is going on?”
“Juliet was kidnapped”
Before Jughead could react, Betty’s phone rang with an ‘unknown’ number. Moose picked it up and put it on speaker.
“Agent Cooper...sorry Jones, I hope my gift reached you?” Came a cocky altered voice
Moose quickly assembled a team to trace the phone call and gestured a now quietened Betty to keep the caller talking.
“Who are you? What do you want?” Her voice desperate
“Ahh not so easily, I want you to come at 83rd street 8pm, come alone and unarmed if you want her back”
“How do I know if she’s even alive?” Her heart pained thinking of the alternative but she knew she had to do this. “I want to talk to her”
“No” the caller replied and cut the call.
“I’m sorry Betty, we couldn’t get the location” Moose said desperate to help his friends
A second later another message came through with the subject line “Proof of life”
The video showed a rundown room with no indication to where it could be and Juliet sat there with the tape still on her face, puffy eyes and a cut on her temple. Betty looked away from the screen, what kind of a person would do this to a 6 year old?
After examining and re-examining the video and multiple failed attempts at trying to get the two Jones to go home, Jughead spoke up “Betts look at her hand”
“Is that Morse code, you taught a 6 year old morse code?” Spoke up one of the agents.
Ignoring her, Betty wrote down the letters that her daughter had spelt out
R-E-D-H-A-I-R
RED HAIR
“It’s Archie.” Archie ‘the red paladin’ Andrews was the most wanted bank robber who’s partner Reggie Mantle she had caught just over a month ago, but unfortunately they didn’t have enough evidence to keep Archie.
“He’s doing this for Reggie” Moose finished for her. Looking at the rest of the group he shouted “I want every file on Archie Andrews and Reggie Mantle and his last location”
Betty shook her head “no, I’ve got a tracker on him.”
“I found him at an art gallery and planted one on him” she explained at everyone’s questioning look “I never stopped working his case” she said relived, they were going to find her baby.
After an exhausting rescue mission which led them to a warehouse behind pop’s, they managed to got Juliet safely back to her parents and got Archie on kidnapping and attempted murder of a federal agent.
Two days later, the family of three sat in Betty’s hospital room with Pop’s takeout. The father and daughter duo were careful of Betty’s injured should which now had a bandage over her bullet wound.
Juliet was not hurt physically other than a few surface scratches, but she had endured severe physiological trauma. After the incident gone was her bubbly personality, she would stick to her parents and woke up with multiple nightmares in the weeks to follow.
Betty and Jughead hated seeing her like this and would rarely leave her side but were happy to have her back with them.
Archie on the other hand was sentenced to life in prison with the help of new found evidence on his involvement in the bank robberies in addition to his other charges.

Sweet Pea//i can't get her off of my brain
Request: Can I request a Sweet Pea/Reader with the song If U Seek Amy by Britney Spears, i can't think of anything plot wise but probably something to do with a party, maybe smut if you're up for it?
hey! enemies to lovers! i repeat, enemies to lovers! is that surprise though? do i know any other tropes? yes. am i going to use them in my writing? no. i hope you like it!! and have a great day everybody!! 
You’re not sure whose party this is. Rebecca’s, Ruby’s? No, it definitely begins with a J. Juliet? Nope. Jade! It’s Jade’s party. It was Juliet’s last night. Although you’re not sure how you can have two separate parties in the same house. Juliet and Jade being twins, they have to share everything, but their parties are separate, or at least thats what they tell people. Most of the time however, they blend into one. 
Its very rare that they have an empty house, but when they do they have weekend long parties. Both insisting that they’re nothing alike. But they both involve a copious amounts of alcohol, loud music, and drama. 
A flash of dark purple hair rushes past you as you walk through the front door and Jade sends you a quick wave and smile as she passes, she’s quickly followed by Juliet, with her pastel purple hair knotted in a braid and almost hitting you in the face as she chases her sister into the kitchen. 
“Give me that back. Its mine!” Juliet shouts angrily. You hear Jade laugh loudly over the music and then they’re both arguing. 
“If you wanted it, you shouldn’t have left it.” Jade replies, her voice teasing as she ignores her sisters tone. 
You’ve known them since you were a kid, and they’ve always argued like this. When it was their birthday, you had to bring the exact same present for both of them otherwise all hell would break lose. Even the box had to be identical.
“You don’t even drink. What do you want with vodka.” 
“I want to annoy you.” She shrugs. 
“Fuck off.” She snatches the bottle back and Jade pouts at her. 
“Someone’s touchy. Have you and Rebecca had a lovers quarrel?” 
“Shut up.” She huffs before storming off. She’s clutching the bottle tight to her chest when she passes you, her head hung low as she stares at the cream carpet and your eyes follow her as she makes her way through the large group of teenagers stood in the living room. 
You feel an arm around your shoulder making you look beside you, and you’re greeted with a very happy Jade. 
“Is she okay?” You ask, pointing in the direction that Juliet slumped off to.
“Yeah.” She glances towards the stairs and you see a slightly worried expression replace her smile. “Her and Rebecca had a very minor argument before the party about something idiotic and she’s been in a foul mood ever since.” 
“Oh.” 
“Anyway.” She changes the subject, the smile reappearing on her face and she greets a few people walking through the door. “Lets get drunk!” 
“You don’t drink.” You laugh, letting her lead you to the kitchen. 
“But you do though, so you’re drinking for the both of us. So, get this down you.” She hands you a shot of something bright red that burns when you drink it and tastes like a mix of fire and soil. “And this.” She shoves another one in your hand and you grimace, but down it anyway. “And take this for the road.” She gives you a red cup with an undisclosed liquid in it and pats you on the back. “I’m gonna go see if Juliet has stopped moping, but I’ll talk to you later.” 
“Have fun.” The two of you walk out of the kitchen and into the crowded living room. In the five minutes you’ve been in the drinking, there seems to be at least twenty more people just in the living room alone and you grimace as you watch the people dance and spill their drinks. 
You honestly have no idea how Jade and Juliet manage to clean up after their parties, and you’re even more confused as to how their parents haven’t found out yet. There’s been a few times where you’ve fallen asleep on the floor (or in the bath) and when you’ve woken up, the house has been spotless. 
Jade walks up the stairs, pushing past the couple’s making out before she disappears. And you’re left standing in the middle of the makeshift dance floor (the lighter patch of the carpet thats usually covered by a very expensive rug) trying to find your friends. 
You instead find Sweet Pea, looking smug as ever while he talks to some girl from your English class. The school year is coming to a close and graduation is looming. For some people, that means studying as hard as they can, getting ready for college and trying to cling on to the last bits of high school before they go off into the big wide world. 
For Sweet Pea however, he’s clinging onto something but its certainly not memories. He’s hooked up with somebody different at every single party you’ve been in the past month, and rumors are spread around the school like wildfire. 
People that have been to several parties in one night have seen him at every single one of them, all with somebody different. And it leaves you wondering what he says to these girls that gets them into bed so quickly or if he just doesn’t last that long when he actually gets to it. You’re favourite theory being the latter. 
He looks away from the girl he’s taking to, feeling eyes on him and before you can look away, the two of you make eye contact. A smirk takes over his appearance and you send him a disgusted stare when he winks at you before going back to flirting. 
The origin behind yours and Sweet Pea’s hatred for each other is unknown to everyone, even the two of you yourselves. But its notorious around Riverdale High. You don’t like him, he doesn’t like you. Its been that way since the serpents started, and even though the hatred between the two sides has long been over, you and Sweet Pea still can’t stand to be in the same room as each other. 
You find him cocky, arrogant and annoying. He finds you stubborn, irritating and very petty. When the two of you are in the same room you can bet that within two minutes there’s going to be an argument. Usually because you like to wind each other up, despite claiming to hate talking to each other. 
If there’s an opportunity to annoy one of you, the others going to take it, no matter the situation. Which has grown increasingly irritating to your friends when they can’t get through a conversation without being interrupted by Sweet Pea throwing something at you or you continuously flicking him in the head until he gets annoyed. And then it ends in name calling until one of you goes to far and the other storms off.  
You pull your gaze away from the tall serpent, now swapping spit with a blonde  and find Betty instead, sat on the sofa with a frown on her face while she holds a full bottle of beer. 
“Hey.” You don’t mean to startle her, but with the volume of the music only getting louder as you approach her, you have to practically shout. She jumps, seemingly being pulled from her thoughts and sends you a small smile as she watches you sit down. “Are you okay?” You lean in, until you’re practically shouting in her ear. It takes a few seconds for her to realize what you’ve said, but when she does she just shrugs and slumps back into the soft furniture. 
“I’m not really in the partying mood.” She replies and you send her a sympathetic smile. 
“Whats up.” 
“Boy trouble.” She huffs and looks out into the crowd. You follow her gaze until you find Jughead leaning against a wall, a drink in his hand as he watches Archie and Veronica dance. 
Large grins are on all of their faces and Betty lets out a deep sigh. The only problem is, you don’t know why one she’s referring to so you have no way to cheer her up. 
Betty’s relationship with Jughead and Archie is almost as complicated as yours and Sweet Pea-Wait. No, thats not right because you and Sweet Pea have the complete opposite of a relationship. You have an, un-relationship. Or, whatever. 
You shake your head, willing that thought and any other like it out of your brain forever, before looking back at Betty and hoping the right words to say will come to you soon. 
“Its okay.” You place a gentle hand on hers and she looks down at it. “I get it. Boys are complicated. But you are far better than any Riverdale High boy. Just think, you’ll be at college in a few months and you’ll have your pick of all the highly educated men that know what to do and how to treat you right.” You nudge her gently and a soft smile twitches at her lips. 
“I suppose so yeah.” She shrugs. 
“But tonight, we’re high schoolers. And do you know what high schoolers do at parties?” 
“What?” 
“They drink and make bad decision that they regret in the morning! So drink that and lets dance.” You say, pushing the bottle towards her. She rolls her eyes, but you can tell she’s suppressing a smile as she takes her first sip. “To peer pressure.” You bump your cup against her bottle before taking a drink. 
“Y/n!” Willow shouts from across the room gaining yours and Betty’s attention. Her red hair bounces as she pushes excitedly through the crowd and by the time she makes it to where you’re stood there’s a bright smile lighting up her entire face. She hugs you and then Betty, complimenting both of your outfits before finally remembering why she came over in the first place. “Have you seen Amy tonight?” 
“Nope.” You shake your head. “But I have only been in here and the kitchen so she could be anywhere.” 
“Damn.” She sighs. 
“She could be in the bathroom.” Betty suggests.
“Or smoking up outside.” You add and she ponders the idea for a minute before nodding. 
“Yeah.” She nods. “Probably. I’ll see you around.” She waves at the two of you before wandering through the house and disappearing out the patio doors. 
“Come on Cooper.” You grab the blondes hand, pulling her off the couch and into the sweaty group of people. She follows reluctantly, keeping her head down as she tries her best not to bump into anybody. 
“Baby, it wasn’t like that.” A guy you pass says desperately to his girlfriend who’s stood with her arms crossed over her chest and a scowl stuck on her face. 
“What is ‘does she take a piece of lime for the drink that I’mma buy her’ mean?” She replies impatiently and you and Betty stop a few feet away from them, wanting to hear more of whatever this conversation is. 
“I was talking about you.” 
“You were talking about me?” She repeats and you and Betty share a look, both of you knowing where this is going. When your question is repeated, you’re in a big trouble. “I have a citrus allergy, you know this.” She shouts and storms off leaving the guy alone and you and Betty holding in laughter. 
“See, we haven’t even started dancing yet and you’re already cheered up.” 
“True.” She shrugs. The song changes to something even more upbeat and the two of you start dancing (jumping around). 
Halfway through though you get distracted by a familiar serpent, passing you and a wicked smile takes over your face. 
You stick your foot out while dancing and the next thing you know Sweet Pea stumbles, spilling his drink over himself and a few other people. You stifle a laugh while he apologizes to the people around him and Betty sends you a disapproving look. 
“What the fuck!” He shouts and looks around, his eyes instantly settling on you and a deep scowl takes over his face. A few people around you stop dancing to watch what is happening, all waiting for the inevitable argument thats about to break out. You however, are unaffected. You just look at him, a sweet smile plastered on your face while you watch him dab at his t-shirt. 
“Oops.” You mumble, looking him up and down as he mutters curse words under his breath. Betty moves closer to you, a part of her worrying that an actual fight is about to break out, and you notice that even Jughead, Archie and Veronica have shuffled a little closer to the three of you. 
Betty exchanges awkward glances with Jughead and Archie before looking down at the floor, and you and Sweet Pea continue the small staring contest you’ve found yourselves in. 
He gives up first, looking down at his now stained shirt and you smirk triumphantly. “I hate you.” He mutters before shoving past you, making sure to bump your shoulder. 
“It was nice bumping in to you Pea.” You tease, watching him storm off and he flips you off over his shoulder. 
“You guys are actually ridiculous.” Betty shakes her head at you. People start dancing again, the moment seeming to have been forgotten already and you just shrug at her. 
Amy rushes past you a second later, distracting you from dancing and your eyes follow her as she runs further away. 
“I found Amy!” You say to nobody in particular making Betty laugh. 
“What do you think Willow wanted Amy for?” She asks and you send her a look. 
“What everybody wants Amy for.” 
“Se-” 
“Weed.” You interrupt, before looking at her confused. “Where you about to say sex?” 
“What? No.” She says quickly and you furrow your eyebrows in confusion. “Did she look upset to you?” She’s changed the subject and you look in the direction she ran off to. 
“I mean maybe. I dunno. Is Willow around?” You ask and the two of you crane your necks to look around. You spot Willow stood by the patio doors. Her arms are wrapped around her, and she’s crying a little. You frown before slowly pushing through the stumbling teens “Are you coming?” You ask Betty, but she’s too distracted staring at Jughead. You sigh, and grab her shoulder, turning her to face you. “I think its clear who you want. Archie may have been the boy next door you had a crush on, but Jughead was your first love. Go talk to him, those college guys can wait.” 
“Are you sure?” She asks, looking at you quickly and you roll your eyes at her. 
“Yes. He looks a little lonely to be honest. If you know what you want, you should go for it.” 
“Maybe you should take your own advice.” She replies and glances at Sweet Pea sulking in the corner. 
“What are you talking about?” You frown. 
“Nothing.” She shakes her head. “Go see whats wrong with Willow.” 
“Have fun!” You smile, she nods before taking a deep breath and slowly approaching Jughead. When you get to the patio doors, Willow is no where to be seen and you let out a frustrated sigh. 
Why do high school parties always have to filled with angst and drama? Why can’t they be light, fun, easy? Why is there always something? Speaking of something...
“Sweet Pea.” You take a deep breath and turn around to face the very angry boy. 
“Y/n.” He says through gritted teeth as he clenches his beer bottle. 
“To what do I owe this pleasure.” You ask, really not caring about the situation. 
You want to know if Amy is okay, when she comes to parties she’s usually in high demand due to the stuff she brings with her, but sometimes that makes her a target. And if you’ve lost her, and now also a very upset Willow, you’re screwed. 
“The pleasure is all mine.” He smirks, looking you up and down. He’s back to his usual self and that only means one thing, he’s planning something. 
“You’re disgusting. Do you know that?” You huff. 
“Yep. You tell me at least once a day.”
“And yet you never listen.” You sigh and lazily pick at your nails. When you don’t get a reply you look back at him to see him watching a game of beer pong. 
“Sorry, what did you say?” He says, suddenly remembering what he was doing. 
“You’re an ass.”
“You also tell me that every day.” 
“I know. It’s a very tedious job but someone has to do it.” You send him a sarcastic smile and go back to looking around the crowded room. 
“What are you looking for? A life?” 
“Wow, I’m so hurt. Seriously what year is this and how old are you?” You roll your eyes. “And if you must know, I’m looking for Amy and/or Willow.” 
“Why?” His face lights up as he also looks around the dark room and you have to admit you’re glad he’s decided to help you. His height certainly gives him an advantage, and if anything does happen, you can just leave him to deal with it while you run away. 
You watch him look around, the way his jaw tightens and the muscles in his neck tense when he thinks he see’s her...oh god. What the hell had Jade given you? 
Your eyes widen as you try to ignore your drunken thoughts and Sweet Pea looks back at you confused as he waves his hand in front of your face. 
“Are you involved in the devils lettuce?” 
“The devils lettuce? Did you seriously just say that?” You snort, whatever lapse of judgement you’ve just had, has definitely passed. 
“Yes, I did. And I’m standing by it.” He huffs, moving to lean against the wall beside you. 
“Well, no. I’m looking for Amy because she looked upset. Willow was looking for her earlier but twenty minutes after they found each other, Amy stormed past me and then Willow was crying.” 
“What’s this got to do with you?” He asks rudely and you send him an annoyed look. 
“They’re my friends. I do have them things you know.” 
“Yeah, yeah. I know. It surprises me really.” He nods along. “Well, Amy told me that she’s going to meet me.” He says and your eyes widen as you turn to look at him. 
“Are you actually about to useful for once in your life?” You say, you’re tone becoming happier as he looks at you smugly. His smirk falters a little when the thought of you being cute crosses his mind, but he just does the same thing he does every time he has a thought like that. He locks it in a box in his brain and shoves it as far away as possible. “Where are you-” 
“I don’t know where or when.” He says and you huff loudly at him, punching him in the arm. “I’ve seen her once or twice around here though and I think she knows my face. I dunno, the person I used to get the dev-that stuff from, got caught and so he had to stop doing it.” 
“Was it Fangs?” 
“It wasn’t Fangs.” 
“It was Fangs wasn’t it?” 
“Yeah...it was Fangs.” He finally admits. 
“And it was Jughead that caught him wasn’t it?” 
“It wasn’t Jughead.” 
“It was Jughead wasn’t it?” 
“Yes fine! It was Jughead.” He huffs making you giggle. The two of you look at each other, a begrudging smile playing on his lips as he watches you laugh. The changing lights dance across your skin and he feels himself getting lost watching you. 
“Its hard to see with all the people standing in my way.” You mutter. “You’re a giant. Have another look.” You interrupt his thoughts and he feels his cheeks heat up at the fact that he was was looking at you like that. “Come on.” You grab his arm and lead him towards the stairs. He looks at your fingers wrapped around his arm and his mind blanks. 
It seems whatever he’s been drinking was stronger than he thought. 
“Wait.” You stop suddenly making him walk right into you. You feel yourself fall but he grabs you just in time, steadying you before the two of you jump away from each other. 
“I found them.” You point to the red head and black haired girls sat on the fourth step making out. “Well, that was short lived.” 
“At least they’re happy.” He shrugs. 
“Very happy it looks like.” You agree, the two of you watch as the kiss gets more heated and then suddenly you feel like you’re intruding. Both of you turn around and make you’re way toward the kitchen, both in desperate need of a drink, maybe not as strong as your others. 
“Damn.” Sweet Pea sighs dramatically as he leans against the counter. You don’t acknowledge him, instead pouring two drink out and handing him one. “I said damn.” He repeats and you suddenly remember why you don’t like hanging out with him. 
“What?” 
“I’m not gonna get any tonight.” 
“How awful. I’m sure your parts can take a day off.” You glance down and he rolls his eyes at you. 
“No, not that.” He shakes his head. “Thats fine, and it never takes a day off.” 
“Thats gross.” 
“I’m talking about weed. If Amy’s busy, where am I gonna get it?” 
“I dunno.” You shrug, now very bored of this conversation. 
“You can get it wherever you like as long as you do it outside.” Jade interrupts, saving you from a very tedious chat with someone that annoys you more and more with each passing second. Or at least thats what you’re trying to tell yourself. Because the five minutes you spent not arguing and actually helping each other, was actually quite pleasant. 
“Of course.” He says. She looks between the two of you and a knowing smile settles on her lips. Her and Sweet Pea seem to have a silent conversation while you just stand and stare at them confused. 
“How was Juliet?” You ask and Sweet Pea lets out a soft breath. 
“She fine. More than fine actually, when I found her she was already making out with Rebecca.” 
“Ohhhh.” You laugh. 
“What about you two. Have you been up to anything exciting?” 
“We watched two girls make out.” Sweet Pea shrugs, not realizing the implications and you and Jade just stare at him. “Not like that.” He blushes. 
“Willow and Amy.” You say, deciding to help him out of the hole he’s dug himself. 
“Ohhh. Aw. Thats cute.” 
“Yeah I know right.” You nod. “I think its been something thats coming for a while though.”
“What is it with everybody boning at my parties.” She wonders. 
“I think it shows how good your parties are. How many people hook up at Juliet’s?” 
“Very true.” She agrees. “Speaking of boning. You’s two seem oddly close.” She looks between the two of you and Sweet Pea and you both look at her disgusted. 
“We were both looking for Amy.” You defend yourself. The tone in your voice makes Sweet Pea’s chest ache. He no longer wants to talk to you, or anyone really, so he stays silent, trying his hardest to blend into the kitchen cabinets and figure out why he’s feeling all of these things all of a sudden. 
He’s been in the same room as you countless of times before, some would say too many times. And all of those times he’s wanted to kill you, but as cheesy as it sounds, the way you said that killed him a little and he can’t quite understand why. 
“Sure you were.” She teases. 
“Shut up.” You grumble.
“Jade, somebody’s thrown up in Aunt Vera’s vase.” Juliet rushes into the kitchen. Jade huffs loudly, placing her drink on the counter before following her sister out, leaving you and Sweet Pea in silence. 
You hum along to the Britney song playing, awkwardly looking around and trying your hardest to think of something to say that isn’t insulting. You haven’t quite realized why you don’t want to insult him yet, but when you try and thing of anything nice to say, you’re mind goes blank. 
He does look good though, even if his t-shirt is stained. And now you feel a little bad about doing that. His hair isn’t styled meticulously like it usually is. Its more hurried, less effort in it but you think he suits it more. He still has the curl at the front and you have a need to brush it away. 
nope. nope. this is not happening. nope.
“So...” You trail off, your lips forming a pout while you stare at the tiles on the floor. 
You can feel him watching you, and a blush creeps up his neck. He’s waiting for you to do something, say something, anything. But nothing happens. There’s no big, magical moment that you’re both apparently desperate for. You just stew in silence, letting the awkwardness fill the room until its almost unbearable.   
“I’m gonna look for Betty.” 
“I’m gonna go find Fangs.” 
Both of you say at the same time and rush out of the room, heading in different directions in search of anyone to talk to. 
You find Betty pretty quickly, but she’s sat on Jughead’s lap making out with him so thats a bust. Jade is busy cleaning vomit up with Juliet and Rebecca  and as much as you’re want a distraction, you’re not that desperate. Willow and Amy have just walked up the stairs so they’ll probably be locked in a bathroom or bedroom somewhere in the next five minutes. 
You’re only option is Veronica and Archie. And to your surprise, they’re not dry humping. They seem to be having an actual conversation. 
“Hey.” 
“Hey.” They reply in sync. It creeps you out but you push past it, sitting down beside them. 
“Have you seen Amy tonight?” Archie asks quickly and you nod your head, not really paying attention to what he’s just said. Its only after a few seconds do you realize whats he’s said that you look at him confused. It seems Archie Andrews is not the boy next door everyone seems to love.
“I have.” You nod. “But any dealings are cancelled for the time being. She’s busy.” 
“Doing what?” 
“Willow.” 
“Ohhhh.”
“What dealings? What are you two on about?” Veronica asks, only now joining in the conversation. She spaced out after saying hi, staring at the lights as they bounce around the room. 
“Nothing V.” You laugh, making eye contact with Archie. “What have you guys been doing?” 
“Drinkinggggg!” She cheers excitedly, lifting her cup up. Liquid spills out the side of it, landing on her shoe and the next thing you know she’s crying uncontrollably. 
“Some of us more than others.” Archie adds. “Come on Ronnie. Lets get you home.” He picks her up easily and she laughs loudly while flopping backwards in his arms. 
Soon its just you, sat on the sofa with half of your drink and nobody to talk to. A part of you kind of wants Sweet Pea back and you suddenly find yourself looking for him in the crowd. 
From across the room, he’s doing exactly the same thing, and when the two of you make eye contact, you find yourself smiling. 
“Why the hell did you do that?” You mumble quietly as you quickly look away. “Oh god, he’s coming over now. Fuc-Hi Sweet Pea.” 
“Er-hi.” He’s nervous. None of the usual confidence he has is in sight. He’s stood in front of you awkwardly, with his hands in his pockets while he thinks of what to say. “Bye.” He says quickly and turns around, whispering curses to himself while he moves through the crowd. 
Okay, maybe being alone isn’t so bad. That was weird. Really weird and you don’t like it. You need it to go back to normal, so you decide to follow him. Managing to catch him just before he goes back into the kitchen. 
“Pea!” You grab his arm, spinning him around. He looks slightly startled and you find yourself staring at him confused, its an unfamiliar expression on him and you feel an unfamiliar feeling stirring in your stomach. “It seems those five minutes we spend helping each other has fucked up our dynamic and I can’t stand it anymore. So I’m giving you permission to insult me.” You know you sound insane, but maybe its something you need. 
“I don’t want to insult you Y/n.” 
“What?” Your jaw drops as you stare at him in utter shock. “Why the hell not? I have plenty of things to insult.” 
“Because I don’t feel like it.” He shakes his head.
“There’s got to be something that you don’t like. What if I start?” You suggest. He just stares at you, eyebrows raised and arms crossed. 
“Why are you doing this?” 
“Because this.” You motion between the two of you. “Us being awkward and weird around each other. Its not normal. We insult and upset and sometimes cause physical pain. Thats our thing. But not knowing how to talk to each other isn’t. And not wanting to say awful things to each other, certainly isn’t. The world doesn’t feel right if we’re not verbally abusing each other.” 
“Have you just made a romantic speech about hating each other?” 
“Yes. And I’d do it all again...for you Sweet Pea.” You say, a smile twitching at the corners of your mouth while you wait for a response. 
“I have been wanting an excuse to tell you that your hair look absolutely awful tonight.” He mumbles making you grin. You move to hug him, but catch yourself in time. Sweet Pea looks at you weirdly and you send him a forced smile, trying to laugh it off. 
“So, where’s the blonde you were sucking face with earlier?” You look around. 
“I dunno.” He shrugs. “Why? Are you jealous?”��
“Yes.” You deadpan. “I’m just so desperate for you that I get jealous of any other girl that so much as looks at you. 
“Aw, babe.” He teases. And odd feeling washes over you when he says babe, a mix of butterflies and breathlessness. “You should have told me sooner. There’s plenty of Sweet Pea to go around.” 
“Have I told you today that you’re disgusting?” 
“Yes, you have in fact.”
“And yet you still don’t do anything about it?” 
“Love me or hate me, its not my fault everyone wants me.” He shrugs and you roll your eyes.
“Please. The only people that want you are either moronic or desperate.”
“Ohhhh, so that explains why you’re constantly flirting with me.” He says cheekily and you look at him offended. 
“I would honestly rather flirt with Reggie than you.”
“Ouch. You’d really chose Mantle over me?” He asks. 
“Definitely.” You nod confidently. 
“Well, thats good because look who’s coming over. Hey Mantle!” He shouts over the music, waving his arms around and your eyes widen when you quickly look around. Reggie is slowly making his way towards the two of you.
“What do you want Sweet Pea?”
“Y/n was just telling me how much she likes you.” Sweet Pea replies and you send him a death glare. He glances at you, sending you a quick wink before looking back him.
“Oh, really?” Reggie asks and turns to look at you. 
“I-”
“Yes. She would not shut up about you. Just constantly, Reggie this, Reggie the-ow! Anyway, gotta go.” Despite hitting him as hard as you could, he seemed relatively unaffected by it, instead walking away and leaving you alone with Reggie.
“So, you like me huh?” 
Yep, Sweet Pea definitely won this round. 
After half an hour of small talk with Reggie, you finally managed to get away. Sending him to get you a drink so you could slip off and hide upstairs for a bit so he could find somebody else. 
You’ve decided to sit in the spare room for a bit. Your thoughts about Sweet Pea are going a million miles a minute in your head and so you need some time to think. To figure out where they’ve come from all of a sudden. Or maybe you’ve been thinking them for a while and you just haven’t paid much attention until now. Until you saw that he could actually be nice, and that you wanted to see more. 
Ever since Sweet Pea left you alone with Mantle, he’s been thinking about you. About the way you look at him when you’re annoyed, or your smile when he says something funny. Or the look you get when you’re about to insult him. You always look so pleased with yourself.
He remembers the way you looked at him when you thought he knew where Amy was, and he remembered the way his chest hurt when he couldn’t help you. 
He then remembers that you gave him a speech as to why the two of you need to insult each other. In a very sad way, its the most romantic thing anybody has ever done for him. 
But he wants more. He wants real moments with you that aren’t just filled with childish name calling and shoving. He wants sweet nicknames, and story sharing and getting to know more about you. But when he thinks about, he knows a lot. He knows you’re favourite film, you’re favourite band. He knows the reason you don’t like that one song from them and why you’re favourite is your favourite. Your memories behind you’re favourite place in Riverdale and he wants to take you there and add to them and oh
He’s the worst. He left you alone with Mantle of all people. He doesn’t mind Reggie now, but he knows what he’s like. And he knows he can get practically anybody in bed. 
“Have you seen Y/n?” He doesn’t care that he’s interrupting Betty and Jughead. He doesn’t even register the way they’re looking at him, annoyed expressions mirroring each other. He’s too busy looking around the dark and busy room, scanning the crowd for you. They shift slightly to look at him properly and a knowing smile appears on each of their lips. 
“Can’t get her off your brain huh?” Jughead teases. 
“Shut up and just tell me if you’ve seen her.” He snaps. 
“She went upstairs.” Jade chimes in as she passes and Sweet Pea sends her a thankful smile as he hurries past her. 
He takes the steps two at a time, narrowly avoiding kicking people in the head and just as he’s about to search every single room, scaring himself in the process when he interrupts couples, he see’s you walking out of one of the rooms. 
“Sweet Pea. Hi.” You say startled. “Thanks for leaving with Reggie by the way.” You grumble angrily. “For twenty minutes he talked about football and girls he’s hooked up with.” 
“Shut up.” He shushes and you stare at him offended. 
“Excuse me?” 
“Y/n. I hate you.” 
“Thanks?” 
“Or at least I thought I did. I thought I hated you more than I hate peas and rich people.” 
“You hate peas?” 
“Yeah.” He nods his head. “Thats not really the point I’m trying to make though.” 
“Sorry.” 
“I thought I hated you, and maybe I did for a bit. But then I think somewhere my hate got confused with a different emotion and I found myself looking forward to seeing you. Even if it was to insult you. And then tonight, we were nice to each other for the first time ever and even though it was only for five minutes, I liked it. Despite how weird and awkward it was. And I want more. I want more of it until it stops being weird and awkward and its just us. Being nice. I want to hate you less Y/n.” 
“I think what you just said was nice.” You say unsure, trying to figure out what exactly he’s trying to say. “But either way I have a need to kiss you so I’m going to do that okay?” 
“Okay.” He nods eagerly and within seconds your lips are on his, your body pushing him into a door as your fingers tangle in his hair. His hands grip your waist tight as he kisses back with just as much desperation.
You pull away first, breathless and panting and he’s looking at like you’re the only person he sees. But the sweet look is soon replaced by his smug smile and you know whats coming next. 
“I thought you’d rather choose Reggie over me.” He teases making you roll your eyes playfully. 
“Yeah, well I guess I’m moronic.” You shrug and his smile grows. 
“You’re only just figuring this out no-” He’s interrupted by you kissing him again. And he figures that whatever insult he had, can wait until afterwards.
