Being in love with your best friend isn't easy. It feels like taboo, like it's wrong and unhealthy. You'll lay awake at ungodly hours of the night, wondering, "How did this happen?", you'll replay every moment of every waking minute you spent with them, wondering how in the world you ended up lying on your floor with an empty bowl of ramen beside your head and imagining what it would feel like to kiss them. You'll catch yourself admiring the tiniest insignificant things about them, and every detail of their stupidly cute face, and every indent and curve and freckle on their body, and let me tell you, it sucks.

I was glad he couldn't see my face because he would have seen the blush that spread across my face as fast as a wildfire.

After Jughead left, Veronica scooted over so she was in front of me, and Betty moved to the other side of the booth. I sucked in a deep breath, knowing exactly where this was going.

"No." I spoke immediately, dipping one of my fries in to my shake and popping it in to my mouth.

"Yes." Veronica and Betty both replied in unison. I shook my head, opting to keep my mouth shut this time.

"Come on Y/N! You have to tell him!" Veronica urged, slamming her hand down on the table. I jumped a bit before relaxing back into my seat.
