Fire and Flames

48(s4e13)

I got up early to go eat breakfast with my parents

As dad picked up his coffee his hand started shaking. He ended up dropping it

He jumped up "damn it" he yells

"Oh daddy let me get that for you" v says

"I'll grab you a rag" I say standing up

"I got it" he says "I don't need your help"

"No of course not, which is why I'll never offer it to you again" v says and storms off

"I'm sorry dad, she didn't mean that" I say and I kiss his cheek

"I'll see you guys later imma be late for school" I say and leave

V was still mad when we got to school

I went straight to sweet pea. That night we went to v's night club and started dancing.

The next day I went to the gym and worked out there even with my dad there. We started bonding over working out.

The next day I sat next to Archie

Kev sighed "that test was brutal why does anybody need to know what primogenitor is?" Kev asks

"Wait that was one of the questions?" V asks

The principal then walked in "ms lodge, Veronica during a routine search I found this flask of rum in your locker" mr honey says

"Excuse me? Since when did riverdale high become a fascist police state, principal Mussolini?" V asks sitting up off of Archie

"It is my responsibility to look after my students well being. How do you think Barnard will react when they hear about this incident?" Mr honey asks

"The recruiter already saw me drinking at my speakeasy. They're not a bunch of prissy power tripping asshats" v says standing up

"V please pick your next words carefully" I say
"Veronica stop" Archie says standing up next to her "you don't have to do this. You don't have to protect me." Archie says everyone just stares at him

"Principal honey I'm so sorry the lock on my locker broke, and I know Veronica la combination so...I stashed that flask my flask in there before the test" Archie says

"So this is your liquor mr Andrews?" Mr honey asks

"It's been a rough year, sir as you know. Sometimes I just need to take the edge off" Archie says

"Archie" v whispers and holds his hand

"You'll have a week's detention and I'm gonna call your mother about this" he says

"I understand sir" Archie says and mr honey leaves

V hugs Archie

I could see v was handling our dads illness horribly.

She ended up provoking him

I ended up getting invited to a stonewall prep party the next night.

"So your going to this party I thought you hated those kids?" Sweets asks
"Oh my sweets I'm going because I hate them plus this is most likely the last party I will go to with the four of them. I will text yo when I'm on my way back" I say and kiss him
"Have fun I love you" he says
"I love you too" I say before heading out the door

I get to the party and can't find my friends anywhere. I stand next to the fire with my drink and send sweets a picture of me.

I go and find v and Archie

"Hey have you guys seen Betty and Jughead?" V asks the other two that were close to jug

"I think they went that way, into the clearing behind those trees" Joan says

"Thanks" v says and we go off to find them.

We get into the woods and see Betty standing over jug

"Oh my god Betty what happened?" V asks

"Jug is he breathing?" Archie asks as we run to them

"Holy fuck Betty" I say

We look down at Jughead head body Archie touches him to see if he's dead.

"There's no pulse" Archie says
"He's dead" Archie says "what did you do Betty?" Archie asks
I look over at Betty

She looks down at her hands then back at Jughead
