Stranger than Fiction

Huge thanks to @jandjsalmon who’s the best ever. Without her, this probably would have ended up being a crappy little oneshot. Now, it’s a multi-chapter monster.  Also, thanks to @youbuildmeupbeliever, @it-happened-one-starry-night, and @colesmoles who helped keep me motivated and chatted with me while I wrote. Here’s to you, ladies.

Rated: Explicit

Dom/sub undertones will be frequent throughout this fic so if that’s not your thing, please skipity skip it. 

Summary: With the wine lowering her inhibitions, Betty threw caution to the wind. She clicked the “follow” button up at the top right corner of his blog. For some reason, her fingers were shaking. Following that blog was an extremely uncharacteristic move, however she felt invigorated by her decision. And nervous. She sighed and began reading his latest post, allowing his words to wash over her and calm her nerves. “I am the man of your dreams. Tall, dark, and handsome. I have my hand stretched out towards you. You’re feeling hesitant so I encourage you with a slight nod and a soft smile. Though you know better, you take my hand regardless and we leave this hell-hole of a party. You’re wearing your Little Black Dress and I swear I can see your peaked nipples through the fabric. Your white gold necklace is draped beautifully over your collar bones and I find myself hard at the thought of replacing it with something I’ve given you, when the time is right, of course.“

Chapter 1/6 under the cut. Read on ao3!!!

“Night, Karen,” Betty called out as she turned out the light in her office. She had just finished up a long day at work and all she could think about was getting home, getting a huge glass of wine, and enjoying some Betty-time in her ornate garden tub. Her coworkers who still remained at the office wished her a good night and she made her way to the gated community she called home.

Upon arriving at the main gate, she entered in the passcode and proceeded once the barrier raised. She knew it was probably overkill, considering the fact that what happened had happened so long ago, but it made her feel safe. Every person living within these gates had been interviewed and passed background checks. Part of her felt silly, but then the other part of her felt safe. Safe from the ghost of a terrible memory.

Betty shuddered. She lived a much happier life these days. She worked as a journalist, getting to write in-depth articles about things she found interesting. She liked reading and often chose to interview up-and-coming authors to promote their work. She loved helping people get exposure and she had met many colorful people through her short career. But that was just her day job. She also ran a baking blog which was called cookiesandcupcakes , and though it was not wildly successful, she loved doing it. In fact, it was her outlet. She needed a distraction from her mundane life every once in awhile and baking brought her a joy that she seldom found anywhere else.

After locking her door behind her, Betty walked to the kitchen. From there, she poured herself a decently sized glass of Riesling, sweet but not overly so, and proceeded to her bathroom. As the tub began to fill, Betty added her favorite oils- bergamot and sandalwood- lit a few candles, and grabbed her laptop. There was a neat little set up for it on the tub so she could soak and work, however, tonight she had different plans.

Once fully immersed in her heavenly bathwater, Betty opened her laptop. After checking all of her notifications and messages, she ventured to her most secret guilty pleasure- a blog called wordsbyjughead . She would never admit to reading it to anyone who asked, though, as the words that graced those online pages were pure, unadulterated smut. It was enough fantasy fuel that she didn’t need physical images, his words were enough.

She had been considering following him, but was terrified to do so due to the graphic nature of his blog. Her blog was much more innocent and how would it look if she got hacked? Whoever hacked her would be able to see his scandalous stories right there in black and white littering her dash. But she still checked his blog every day. Plus, she could always send him a nice message thanking him for his writing, no harm done, right?

With the wine lowering her inhibitions, Betty threw caution to the wind. She clicked the “follow” button up at the top right corner of his blog. For some reason, her fingers were shaking. Following that blog was an extremely uncharacteristic move, however she felt invigorated by her decision. And nervous. She sighed and began reading his latest post, allowing his words to wash over her and calm her nerves.

“I am the man of your dreams. Tall, dark, and handsome. I have my hand stretched out towards you. You’re feeling hesitant so I encourage you with a slight nod and a soft smile. Though you know better, you take my hand regardless and we leave this hell-hole of a party. You’re wearing your Little Black Dress and I swear I can see your peaked nipples through the fabric. Your white gold necklace is draped beautifully over your collar bones and I find myself hard at the thought of replacing it with something I’ve given you, when the time is right, of course.

“Until then, I live in the moment. We hail a cab back to your apartment. You tell the cabbie your address while I trail my fingers up the exposed skin of your arm lightly enough to cause an eruption of goosebumps and an uptick in your pulse. I brush your hair to the side, gently of course, exposing the long column of your neck. I long to latch on, to mark your body, to remind you of our night together for days and days to come.

“Your thighs squeeze together. You’re far too turned on to think straight and I’ve barely even touched you. You’re so responsive, such a good girl.”

Betty’s fingers found her own skin as she scrolled through the story. She let his words cleanse her mind and allowed herself to imagine the scene he was setting as if she were this mystery woman. She thought of who would play the part of “tall, dark, and handsome.” Since she had no face to place with the author of the story, she let her mind wander until her thoughts landed on her sexy next-door neighbor. He was tall, he was dark, and he was hot as hell. He also had a confidence about him that she could sense the author was going for when writing his narrator. Yes, Mr. Jones would do just fine for this particular fantasy.

“Our cab approaches your building quickly, and thank fuck for that. I can’t wait to get my hands up your pretty little skirt…”

Betty gulped.

“We pay the cabbie and run inside. As soon as the elevator doors close my mouth is on yours. You eagerly allow my tongue access and we explore one another. You let me have control of the kiss which elicits a soft growl from my chest. This is exactly what I was hoping for. I reach behind you and slowly unzip your dress, letting my fingers trail against your smooth skin as they descend.

“The sound that escapes from your lips is auditory sin. It encourages me. I slip your dress down your body and take you in. No bra, no panties. Just a garter belt holding up your thigh-high stockings and heels. I swear I’m in love with the sight of you.”

Betty sighed, allowing her fingers to explore her body and let her mind escape for a while. She pictures Mr. Jones standing before her in a dark suit, that unruly curl falling in front of his eyes as he drinks her in. She imagines his intense stare, which exposes the deepest parts of her soul. She imagines it would be raw, her and Mr. Jones.

Her eyes close. Behind her eyelids stands Mr. Jones wearing his most perfectly tailored suit; the one that fits him like a goddamned glove. His eyes are dark. She feels her body respond to the look in his eyes. It’s hungry. He looks like he could devour her. She feels as though she would let him.

Beneath the water, Betty’s fingers find her delicate folds. She lets herself play while she imagines Mr. Jones taking a step toward her. She feels herself grow wetter, despite the bathwater, as she remembers Jughead’s story. She’s naked in this fantasy save for a scrap of fabric around her waist. She imagines what Mr. Jones would do once he reached her. Would he grab her breast? Would he taste her neck? Her mouth? Or would he drop to his knees and worship her from her core?

Betty’s breathing was coming faster now. She pictured Mr. Jones grabbing her by the back of the neck and bringing her face to his for a bruising kiss while letting his fingers find her most intimate spot, already eagerly awaiting attention from him. “Fuck, Baby. You’re so wet… Is this all for me?” He’d ask.

She would whimper in response. “Yes, yes Mr. Jones. It’s all for you. Just for you.” He would smirk against her skin, all the while continuing his ministrations.

“Such a good girl, Betty.” She couldn’t help the moan that slipped from her lips. She was so close. “Come for me. Come, now.”

That was all she needed. Release found her instantly. She rode out her climax and slinked down into her bathwater sated and more relaxed than she had been in days.

-

She didn’t know how long she had been zoned out in the bath, but it was long enough that the once steaming water was lukewarm at best. She stood and made to get out of the tub when she noticed a message notification on her blog’s dashboard. She wrapped herself in her plush towel and grabbed the laptop carrying it out to her bedroom.

Once she was dressed for bed and tucked in, she opened her messages. She almost choked on air. The message waiting for her was from none other than the author himself, Jughead. Shit, she thought to herself, calm down. It’s just a damn message Betty, not a marriage proposal .

wordsbyjughead: Forgive me for asking, but did you actually mean to follow me or did you do so by accident?

Betty took a deep breath, tried to calm her nerves, and started typing.

cookiesandcupcakes: You’re forgiven. I followed on purpose. Why, is there an issue with me doing so?

wordsbyjughead: No issue at all. Judging by your blog, you’re not my typical audience is all. It’s actually refreshing to know my stories are being read by more than just porn blogs.

Betty giggled. Embarrassment in doing so clouded her mind and her face flushed.

wordsbyjughead: You know, I really love to eat. Your blog is heavenly. You really make all those recipes yourself?

cookiesandcupcakes: Yep. All mine. Baking is therapeutic, plus I have a really big sweet tooth.

cookiesandcupcakes: I also really enjoy reading, which is why I followed your blog. You’re a really great writer. Have you considered publishing?

wordsbyjughead: I also have a sweet tooth the size of Texas, if we’re being honest.

wordsbyjughead: And yes, I have considered publishing ;)

cookiesandcupcakes: Really? Does that wink mean you already have?

Betty could feel her sleepiness leaving her as she chatted with Jughead. She never would have thought he would be so easy to talk to.

wordsbyjughead: It’s a secret. So, if I may ask, what’s your favorite story on my blog?

She thought through all the stories of his she had read. They were all incredible.

cookiesandcupcakes: They are all great. Are you fishing for compliments, Jughead?

She hit send before she could talk herself out of it.

wordsbyjughead: Maybe I am. But I’m also a firm believer that you can tell a lot about a person by what they read. You’re no exception.

cookiesandcupcakes: Let me think about it and get back to you.

She ended the chat and shut her computer down before she could get herself into any more trouble.
