Whispered something in your ear It was a perverted thing to say But I said it anyway Made you smile and look away
Nothing’s Gonna Hurt You Baby // Cigarettes After Sex
Hour 14
Quickly the sky faded as they passed through Indiana into Illinois and found themselves in Chicago at 2 am. The doors of the truck began to cool and darkness of the sky filled the windows. The scene left Betty calm and content as she leaned her head against the window. The vastness of black made her mind slow down and let her for once focus on her surroundings. The headlights would follow the objects in close distance and trace over the road lines. There was something about nighttime that made Betty happy. Streetlights reflected on the paint of the old mint pickup truck and the winds cooled her eyes as she let down the window. She laid her head out into the air listening to the rush of the tires against the concrete road.
Jughead felt the weight of his eyelids even more the minute. Betty noticed his sluggishness and wondered if she should drive, knowing that he would refuse anyway.
“Juggie, it’s 2 am.”
“Yeah, maybe we should look for a motel.”
Betty pulled out her phone and searched for the nearest motel finding one just a few minutes away. Betty directed Jughead before they finally pulled up in the parking lot.
Jughead let out an exhausted breath and fell into his seat as he pulled the key out of the ignition. The lights in the truck dimmed and Betty moved over until one of her legs snaked on top of his. She laid her head against his and pulled one his dark strands of hair from his face –twisting it around her pointer finger.
“You know you didn’t have to drive the whole time. I could have taken a shift, let you rest.”
Jughead’s eyes fluttered at her touch. Her fingers traced his hairline following the curve of his jaw only to come back up and brush over his eyebrow.
“Betts…”
“Yes?” Betty smiled through the question with her mouth parted open and her eyes gleaming.
“I always drive.”
“Yeah but what’s the fun in that if you’re always tired during the trip? There’s not a lot I can do with you when you’re practically falling asleep.” Betty egged on as her eyes for a moment held desire. It sent a chill down his spine.
“You’re killing me here.”
“C’mon. Let’s go get a room.” Betty said as she pulled herself up. She reached for her door and looked back at Jughead. His eyebrows were raised in response.
Betty grumbled as he clicked open the door.
“Why do you always have to make everything dirty?”
Jughead smirked at that.
“Cause I know you.”
Betty pouted and scrunched up her nose.
“Oh don’t fret Betty, it’s only going to get dirtier.”
Betty squinted her eyes as she skeptically eyed the raven-haired boy as he grabbed their bags.
“Why do I get the feeling that I have no idea what I signed up for?”
“Cause you don’t.” He uttered with a wink.
Betty watched him walk away towards the motel entrance.
And she asked herself: Since when did he get so hot?
---
Jughead had managed to convince the manager of the motel to let them book a room for the night. It was sixty bucks and there was only bed and the bathroom wasn’t the best but they were only staying to sleep. As soon as Jughead got through the door with their bags he swan dived onto the bed in a huff.
“Sleepy?”
“Mhhmmmm”
Betty giggled as she opened up their bags. She unzipped his duffel looking for his toothbrush and paste. After sifting through Jughead’s clothes she found them. She grabbed them and walked over to the bed and sat on the bed beside his head with her knees tucked under her. She smoothed down his curls on the back of his head and ran her hand along his shoulder blades through his shirt. Her nails slightly brushed against his bone causing him to let out a growl and moan as she continued.
“You gotta brush your teeth Juggie.” She whispered softly in a voice that made a wave of heat run down his body.
“Mhmmmmm”
Betty giggled and tried to shove him slightly so his face would face her.
“Juggie!”
“Mhmmmmm”
“Ugh you are the worst. Now come one and get off your ass and brush your teeth like an adult!”
A smile spread over his face as the frustration in her voice grew and he turned to her to see her eyes wide and a pout that sent shivers down his spine. He caught her eyes and slowly took her in. His eyes trailed over her body before returning up to her eyes. He tucked his bottom lip under his teeth as he watched her blush heighten and spread to the tops of her ears popping out with her ponytail loosening slightly so that her waves fell down her neck.
“Stop looking at me like that.”
“Like what?”
“Like you love me.”
Jughead frowned as he grabbed his toothbrush and paste from her hands. But then a slow smile spread over his face and as he got up to go the bathroom he turned to her and uttered the words:
“Oh but I do, Betty Cooper.”
---
“Remember that night when I…When I…” Betty felt her cheeks redden as she tried to say the words and wondering why all of a sudden she found it hard now.
Jughead watched as the girl flustered while sitting crisscrossed on top of mattress across from him with the cards in her hand. She looked down at the deck with her mouth parted open, speechless; she scrambled to find the words. As he realized why she was being so evasive his lip began to curl up and the more he smiled at her embarrassment, the redder Betty grew.
“When you helped me out? So to speak.” Jughead’s smile grew wider.
“Yeah.”
“What about it Betts?” Jughead said innocently as he egged her on. He was definitely going to hell he thought. 
Betty rolled her eyes and sighed as her face fell in her hands. She began to get up and collect the cards as she chickened out.
“Never mind.”
 Jughead frowned as he saw her retreat. He grabbed her hand and dropped the act as he scooted closer to her side of the bed.
“No, not never mind. C’mon what is it Betts?”
Betty hesitated for a few moments before she finally opened her mouth again.
“We just, we haven’t done anything since then. I’d like to try something?”
“Well what did you have in mind?”
“I made the first move. So now it’s your turn.” Betty looked up at him with her big green eyes watching his reaction. His face was blank and his eyes searched her face for any clue that she was being serious until they reached her lips. She could see him swallow air as his Adam’s apple bobbed and as his eyes filled with uncertainty.
Her other hand tightened around his grip and she uncurled his fingers. Their fingers interlocked as their wrists waved back and forth and their elbows rested on their thighs. She smiled at the touch and pulled his hand closer and placed it above her knee. She looked up and caught him still watching their hands. She waited for him to look back at her. Her throat coiled as she tried to gather up any ounce of courage left in her body. Her mouth parted and she tried to focus on the little filaments of dark blue that wrapped around the soft hue that pooled in his eyes.
God he was beautiful.
She took in a breath and she softly said the words:
“Kiss me.”

Wicked Games - Chapter Seven
A few things I’d like to say before we start!
-First off! This little chapter is dedicated to @vintagelovestories. I hope you’re feeling better, sweetness. <3 and to @vehronicalodge, I hope this chapter is worth chugging coffee over! ;) 
- My good friend, @itstenafterfour, sent me a video to help me out while writing the training scenes with Betty and Jughead. It’s a really helpful video in case you’re ever in a situation where you have to protect yourself against sexual assault. I encourage everyone to watch the video, which you can find here.
-Also thank you to @itstenafterfour for proofreading this for me and for giving me so many great ideas and making this chapter better! You’re the greatest beta. <3
-We have also made Every Breath You Take by Chase Holfelder the official theme song of Wicked Games. Seriously. Go listen to this song on YouTube. It’s hella creepy. And a good song to go with this chapter is Run by Elsa & Emilie.
-I may or may not have given Betty a fucking praise kink, lmao. So like… I’m sorry I’m like this.
-The commercial that Betty does in this chapter is based off of the Dolce and Gabbana Light Blue fragrance commercial.
-There’s a lot of freaking pining and scheming starting now and these two losers in love being really dumb. :)
ALSO! It mentions that there’s an article about Betty’s bodyguard being the one who saved her from Nathan. The article does NOT mention who her bodyguard is, therefore no one knows who Jughead actually is to her. 
This chapter is kind of long (the longest so far at over 7,000 words) so if it cuts off or crashes, you can also read it over on my AO3.
Jughead straddles her waist, her hands are pinned to the floor by his larger ones and he’s panting in her ear. If she focuses, she can feel the way his chest contracts against hers, and how heavy his breathing is. She can feel his heartbeat against her own. She tries not to focus on it, but she can’t help it.
“You’re unfocused,” he pants in her ear. He’s so close to her, his lips are grazing her ear and she wants to scream at him to get off and pull him closer against her at the same time. He tilts his head closer towards her, his lips are near her neck now and she wonders if he’s doing this on purpose. There’s no way he doesn’t notice what he’s doing, but he’s the one who said he didn’t have feelings for her. She’s confused; confused and slightly turned on. “What’s got you so unfocused? This is really serious stuff.”
The fact that if I pick up my hips, I’m pretty sure I’ll be able to feel your dick against me.
“Nothing,” she grunts out instead. “You’re crushing me!”
“That’s the point, Elizabeth.” She glares at the use of her full name. “I’m supposed to be crushing you. You’re the one who needs to make sure that we don’t get to this point.”
“This isn’t fair! I’m a beginner.” They’re starting their self-defense classes and Betty’s taking it as seriously as possible, but she would be lying if she said that she doesn’t sometimes purposely mess that one move up so that way she and Jughead end up in the exact position they’re in right now. She said she’d move on from him and the little crush she’s harboring, and she will, but for now, she’s kind of content pining.
“Do you think your attacker is going to go easy on you because you’re a beginner?” He tosses back at her, sounding pretty annoyed actually and Betty blushes in embarrassment. She closes her eyes and sighs in disappointment. He can feel her breath on him and tries to ignore the shivers he can feel go up his spine.
“No,” she whispers.
“Exactly. Look, when sexual assault happens, the assailant is usually like this.” Jughead puts his hands on her shoulders and leans up against her chest. “Usually touching really inappropriately and whatnot.” She should not be thinking of Jughead touching her inappropriately but she is. He then climbs off of her and she has to stop herself from pouting. She sits up, placing her hands on the ground but Jughead puts the tip of his Nike shoe on her chest and pushes her back down gently. “Did I say for you to get up?”
“What?” She asks, bewildered. “I thought we were done here.”
“Not just yet. Lay back down.”
She would be embarrassed about how quickly she does as he says, but she isn’t. She’s sure she’s not the only woman out there who would gladly lay down if Jughead told them to.
“You with me?” He asks her and she just nods silently. Hell yes, I’m with you. “Okay, we’re going to do the shrimp technique again and then we’ll call it a day.”
The shrimp technique. It had been the first move Jughead had shown her and she had mastered it pretty easy. Jughead kneels back onto the floor in front of her and she widens her legs for him. She tries to ignore the throb she feels just looking at Jughead position himself between her legs. She’s never been the one for kinky stuff during sex, but Jughead is so much bigger than her and he completely covers her as he leans over her; she can’t help but think what he’d be like in bed. Kevin had said that he looked like he was into kinky shit. Would he hold her down, make her beg for it? Would he make her beg for it and bring her to the edge only to pull away at the last minute? Was he slow and sensual or rough and dominant?
“Betty?” He questions out.
“Uh huh?”
“You just moaned.”
Her eyes snap open and she looks at him in horror. She hadn’t realized where her mind had been spiraling off to, and she definitely didn’t want to admit it.
“Am I hurting you?” He asks her and she notices that he looks worried instead of freaked out. “I’m trying not to put too much pressure on you.”
“No!” She reassures him. “Sorry, I got a cramp. You can put more pressure on me!” Way to be subtle, Betty. She feels anxiety bubble in the bottom of her stomach, thinking her comment made her sound way too easy. “It’s what an attacker would do, right?” She added rapidly, hoping to diffuse the possibility of him misconstruing her voice.
“Okay, let’s do it quick. I’m going to act like I’m actually your attacker, okay? Show me you can defend yourself.” His voice practically growled at her. It’s funny, she thinks to herself, the way she feels an undeniable need to impress Jughead. She’s supposed to be learning all this stuff for herself, and she is, but she loves the praise he gives her when she does something right. She’s used to people praising her because she has a pretty face or a nice body, but Jughead does it because she’s done something good, because she’s impressed him. It’s a feeling like no other.
“Okay.”
It’s quick, but she’s expecting it. He bucks into her a bit roughly and brings his chest down to put all his weight on her and hold her down. Betty extends her arms out, completely straight, and pushes him up and off of her. When she pushes up, he slides back a little away from her and she picks up her right leg and places it onto his thigh, pushing him as hard as she can, clearly throwing him a bit off balance. When she pushes him far enough, she brings up her left leg and positions it on the side of his body and uses both legs to push him off of her. She puts her legs into a kicking position and acts like she’s about to kick him in the face. Jughead grabs her by the ankle and smirks at her, more out of pride than anything else.
“Good,” he tells her. “That was really good.”
She bites her lip as she tries to hide her cool, but she’s beaming on the inside.
“Proud?” She asks him with a smirk.
He smiles and squeezes her ankle. “Always.” He then lets go of her ankle and stands up, holding out a hand for her to grab onto as he helps her up. Jughead puts his hand on her waist as he helps her to her feet, making her feel like she could practically melt into his arms. Even though they were practicing self-defense to prevent a rape of all horrible things, she felt strangely turned on by the whole practice, and more than a little hot and bothered. He had been pressed against her chest and hips, could you blame her? He moves his hand off of her waist, and she tries not to show her disappointment on her face.
“Cheryl’s coming by today,” she informs him. “I think she said she found a new shoot for me to do.”
“Any idea what it is?” Jughead always seems wary when she tells him she has to do photoshoots. He’s been on edge lately and Betty can completely understand why. She likes how protective he seems to be over her. She just wishes it was for other reasons besides just being her bodyguard.
“No, but I hope it’s good.”
“You’re joking.”
“I’m not.”
“Please tell me you’re playing a really sick game on me right now.”
“No. You said you wanted to get into commercials. This is the perfect time for that.”
“I thought you said this was a photoshoot! And I didn’t know this was what I’d be getting!”
Betty is not being dramatic, she’s not. Anyone else would be acting the exact same way if they have just gotten told the news she did. Or well, maybe not actually. She’s sure there were a lot of girls out there who’d kill to be in her place right now.
Shooting a Dolce and Gabbana commercial was kind of a dream. It was something that she had only ever dreamed of doing as a kid and then as a rising model. But now that the opportunity had presented itself to her, she wanted absolutely no part of it.
“He’s not that bad,” Cheryl tries, but the grimace on her face shows that not even she believes her own words.
“Right, he’s a freaking nightmare, Cher!”
Chuck Clayton was the point guard for the Los Angeles Clippers and he was one of those guys who acted like and pretty much swore he was God’s gift to women just because he was semi-good-looking and knew how to shoot a basketball. Betty had had the misfortune of meeting him once, two years ago and she was still trying to get the overpowering stench of his cologne out of her head.
“It’s Dolce and Gabbana, Betty. Do you think you can get over your annoyance of him for a couple of hours? If you don’t want to do it, I won’t make you, but I think you’d be missing out on something great here.”
Betty groans. She knows that Cheryl is right, as much as she wishes she wasn’t. She’d be an idiot to turn this down. She supposed she could get over the sketchy vibes Chuck gave her in order to film the commercial.
“When are we filming?” She sighs and Cheryl grins, knowing she’s officially caved in.  
“This Saturday. You’ll need to be on site by ten so I’ll set up James for you.” Cheryl begins tapping away at her phone and Betty just rolls her eyes, taking another bite of her pancakes and regretting the idea already.
“Can you ask James to get me a cinnamon and raisin bagel before he picks me up?” James is her personal driver. She doesn’t really use him that much these days, because Jughead’s usually driving her everywhere, or she just won’t leave home. James is a really good guy. He’s been with Betty since the beginning of her career, and although they don’t talk much at all, he’s always comfortable to be around during long drives.
“Looks like you have enough sweets, don’t you think?” Cheryl raises an eyebrow at the gift basket that’s sitting on her counter. “Who sent you that? Who even knows where you live?”
“Officer Matthews.” Cheryl gives her a confused look. “He was on duty each time my uh, stalker decided to grace us with gifts. He was one of the officers who came over here when Nathan attacked me. He’s nice.”
“Nice, huh?” Cheryl smirks at her. “Is he cute?”
“Oh, my God.”
“It’s a serious question! He’s cute, isn’t he?”
“Well, he’s not… ugly.” And he wasn’t. He was a tall blonde haired Adonis if truth be told, but Betty didn’t get that sort of vibe from him. He was kind when he talked to her and he never so much as hinted at trying to flirt with her. He was always more interested in if she was okay or if there was anything he could do to help her out. Although he was a cop, so that was kind of his job. It was nice though, and she appreciated any bit of consistent kindness these days. Everything with Jughead had been hot or cold.
“So he’s totally hot.”
“Maybe,” Betty shrugs. “But it’s not like I’m going to go after him. He’s a cop! And he’s not my type.”
“What is your type?” she questions teasingly.
Betty just shrugs again. She could tell Cheryl exactly who her type was, but she’s sure the redhead wouldn’t exactly be all for the idea. Her dating history’s been less than discreet, and there are some obvious patterns Betty had picked up on over the years. And god, her type lived with her 24 hours a day and she did not want to bring it up again.
“I can set him up with you,” she jokes, trying to get the subject off of herself. “I’m sure he’d be your type.”
Cheryl just rolls her eyes before standing up from where they’d been sitting at the bar.
“I’ll let them know that you’re in for the commercial.” She must notice the way Betty’s face contorts because she gives her a small smile. “It’s just one day of shooting. You can do this and then you’ll never have to see Chuck Clayton again.”
Betty doubts that but she nods anyway and watches as Cheryl walks out of the apartment. She should be over the moon about the commercial, but she isn’t. She really does not want to work with Chuck. He has a reputation and Betty hates having to play nice with people she knows are no good.
“Dolce and Gabbana, huh?”
She jumps as Jughead walks out of his room and into their living room. He sits on the couch and grabs one of the pillows on it, placing it onto his lap.
“You were listening?”
“Just towards the end. Chuck Clayton, huh?” The look on his face is unreadable and Betty just nods. “I didn’t know that Officer Matthews was the one who sent you that gift basket.”
“Well, you never asked. Did you assume I just decided to go out and buy myself a gift basket for the hell of it?”
Jughead shoots her a glare. “You shouldn’t eat anything in it. You can’t trust anyone.”
“Are you serious? He’s a cop, Jughead!”
“A young cop that just so happened to be on every scene with you so far? That’s kind of suspicious, don’t you think?”
Betty just looks at him, annoyed, before rolling her eyes and standing up from her chair.
“Where are you going?” He yells at her retreating back.
She ignores him as she goes into her room and closes the door behind herself, throwing her body onto her bed. She’s trying not to be annoyed. She knows that she doesn’t have any reason to be annoyed with Jughead at all. He’s just doing his job, but she’s annoyed by the fact that he’s telling her not to eat a gift basket that a police officer (of all people) gave her. That’s going a little too far. She wishes that he was doing it because he was jealous and he felt something for her, but she knows that’s not it. He’s made it abundantly clear that he doesn’t feel anything for her.
There’s a knock at her door and she doesn’t even answer before Jughead walks inside quietly.
“I upset you.” He doesn’t ask her, he’s stating it as a fact. “I’m sorry. I know we’ve talked about me being a little too much about this stuff. I don’t know why I got so worked up over a gift basket. You’re right, Officer Matthews has been more than helpful.”
“It’s fine.” The whole conversation is stupid to her and she’d rather not have it. “I don’t want to do this commercial with Chuck Clayton.”
“Then why are you?” He sits on the end of her bed away from her, but she still smiles at the sight of him on her bed.
“Cheryl’s right. It’s a really good opportunity. I’ve been wanting to get into commercials and this is kind of the best way and a dream come true. I just wish it wasn’t with him.” Her dislike for Chuck might be a little too extreme, but she doesn’t care. She has a good judge of character. “Will you come with me?”
Jughead gives her a funny look. “Do you even have to ask? Haven’t I gone to all your shoots so far?”
“Don’t you ever get bored? I wouldn’t mind if you didn’t want to go, you know.”
“Trust me when I say that bored is the last thing I feel with you.” He smiles at her and squeezes her leg gently before standing up and leaving her room. She’s so happy with his words that she doesn’t think to ask him what all he feels around her.
Saturday seems to come too quickly and she doesn’t feel any less annoyed than she had when she first found out about the shoot. She knows she should feel happy, she’s living the dream of countless models who fight tooth-and-nail to get even this chance.
She and Jughead are sat in the back of the black Lincoln Continental. Jughead’s been glaring at James the entire time and Betty has no idea why.
“How have you been?” Betty asks James as she tears a piece of the bagel he’d gotten her. “It’s been a while.”
“I’ve been good, Miss Cooper.” James was always professional with her, refusing to call her Betty even though she’d told him several times that it was okay. “Is everything okay with you?”
She doesn’t think that James knows about her stalker. Betty doesn’t want him to. She sure hasn’t said anything so unless Cheryl’s said anything then he’d be clueless. Although he’d probably know about Nathan. She didn’t want to talk about that either.
“I’m good,” she tells him. “I’m getting better. Mr. Jones here has been teaching me some self defense.” She smiles at Jughead, finding it funny that she’s referred to him as ‘Mr. Jones’, however, he doesn’t smile back at her. He just stays stoic as he stares ahead at James.
“That’s good,” James says but he sounds a bit sarcastic about it. Betty has no idea what the hell is going on so she just stays quiet. He’s never acted like this, in all the years of driving her around, he’s been warm and welcoming, and now his even, slight coldness is enough to make her shiver.
She tears off another piece of the bagel and offers it to Jughead. He just shakes his head, but he doesn’t look her way. She frowns and eats it herself.
They finally arrive at the location and she’s never been more happy to get out of a car before.
“Thank you, James,” she says as Jughead gets out of the car.
“Anything for you, Miss Cooper.”
“Betty,” Jughead says in the smuggest tone she’s ever heard before. She turns towards him and he’s holding the door open for her while extending his hand out to her for her to grasp onto. She gives him a funny look but she can’t help the way she swoons at the sweet gesture. He may have been joking, but she couldn’t help but think of how he’d treat any girl lucky enough to date him.
She grabs onto his hand and gets out of the car. Jughead slams the door behind them, but Betty just ignores him. He must be in a mood.
“If you wanted breakfast you should have told me,” Jughead grumbles. “I would have gone out before we left and gotten you some.” Is he really bitter about not getting me a bagel?
“Oh, no. Don’t worry about it!” Betty says with a smile. “James knows this place that has the best bagels around. He always goes for me.”
“Doesn’t he have a wife or something to get bagels for?”
“No?” Betty says, giving him a weird look. “He’s single.”
She doesn’t understand why he’s single. James is a very attractive guy and he’s only in his mid to late thirties. He’s really handsome too in a very serious sort of way. He’s muscled, a bit more than Jughead, and has a military haircut with dark green eyes. He’s definitely a looker if you’re into the whole serious clean-cut look.
“Of course he is. So where are we going?”
She ignores his attitude and leads him inside of the building. Although she’s in front of him, his hand stays pressed against her lower back as if he’s making sure she doesn’t get lost or something. Everyone is already on set by the time they get there. People are running around acting like they’re doomed to run out of time before the world blows up. She spots Chuck sitting in front of a mirror as his makeup is done. He’s naked except for a tiny towel covering his private areas. He spots Betty in the reflection of the mirror and sends her a smirk. It gives her a strange feeling of disgust and discomfort.
“Betty Cooper, it’s about time! Come sit with me.” She’s about to act like she never heard him, but another makeup artist sees her and drags her over to the empty chair next to him. “How have you been? I heard about what happened to you with, you know,” he looks at her and she expects to see pity on his face, but she doesn’t. Instead, he looks genuinely sorry. It’s a look she isn’t used to seeing on him and it confuses her. “Are you okay?”
“I’m fine,” she tells him, meaning it. “Nothing happened. It was just scary to think of what could have happened.”
“I heard your bodyguard was the one who stopped it. That’s good.” He nods like he’s accepting something. “And I heard what happened to the guy… are you okay about that?” It’s a question no one has asked her and it takes her off guard.
“I don’t know,” she answers him honestly. “I didn’t want that to happen. I never wanted that to happen.”
“I know you didn’t. Most people would preach about how he got what he deserved but not you.” Chuck smiles warmly at her. “You’re different from everyone else.”
Betty tries to gather her thoughts together. The Chuck in front of her is so different from the Chuck she met two years ago. He’s different from the things she’s heard about him. He’s being kinder in this one conversation than he’s been in the past two years she’d worked with and heard about him. And she doesn’t know what to think. Has something happened in the past few years to make him change? She’s always believed that people could change if they really wanted to, she just didn’t think Chuck Clayton would be one of those people. He wasn’t incapable of change, Betty just didn’t think he’d want to.
“Thank you,” is all she says. She looks into the mirror in front of her. Her stylist is wetting her hair. Her makeup artist is pulling out an eyeshadow palette to use on her. She catches Jughead’s eye in the mirror and his reflection sinks into a frown, just like he has been all day. She gives him a forced smile, hoping he’ll smile back, but he just turns away.
The commercial is just as sexy as she thought it would be. She’s currently standing in a pool of heated water in a tiny white bikini. She would feel a little embarrassed but she’s used to this by now and Chuck’s sporting what can only be called fashionable tighty-whities so she feels fine.
“I want to get one more shot of you coming out of the water,” the director yells over to her. She gives him a thumbs up and waits for the okay to start. For what seems like the hundredth time, she goes underneath the water and emerges in a way that rivals Ariel’s in The Little Mermaid.
“Cut!” The director yells out. “That was beautiful, Elizabeth! Absolutely stunning! I told my people that I would work with no one else but you.”
“She does have that certain poise in her that you can’t find anywhere else,” Chuck says from where he’s sitting on the makeshift pier. Betty just smiles at both of them and makes to get out of the water.
“You know,” Chuck says as she nears the pier, holding a hand out for her, “I’m having a party tonight. A lot of people are going to be there. You’re invited. You can bring whoever you want with you.” He glances behind her at something before turning his attention back to her. “You don’t have to come, but I thought I’d invite you. I understand if you don’t, though especially after everything you’ve been through.”
She knows the last place she needs to be is at a party, but it sounds inviting. She remembers back to the last time she decided to do something fun, though and how that had worked out for her. Tonight will be different. If she goes, she’s not going to drink and she’ll be in better control of herself. She just needs a change of scenery from her apartment.
“I’ll be there,” she tells him.
They say their goodbyes and he gives her his address before leaving. She walks over to Jughead who has been standing in the corner of the room all day.
“What’s wrong?” She asks him, concerned. She doesn’t know what’s bothering him, but it’s starting to bother her. “You’ve been in a mood all day. Are you okay?”
“It’s nothing.”
“Don’t do that,” she tells him and he looks at her in question. “Remember when you told me that you wanted to be here for me? I want to be here for you, too. You’re my friend, Jughead. You can talk to me.”
He’s quiet as he just stares at her. Finally, he sighs out and slouches a little, losing the tense stance he’d been in all day. She smiles inwardly, having finally broken today’s cold exterior.
“It’s just one of those days,” he tells her vaguely. It doesn’t answer anything and it leaves her just as clueless, but she’ll take it. Everyone’s entitled to have their own off days. “I know I’ve been rude. To you. Everyone. I’m sorry.”
“It’s okay,” she shrugs as she links their arms together in a comfortable fashion as they begin to walk outside. “I got invited to a party Chuck is throwing tonight.”
“Did you?”
“Mhm, you don’t have to go with me.”
Jughead stops in his tracks, making Betty come to a halt as well. She looks up at him confused and he’s staring down at her in disbelief.
“Are you serious?”
“Well… yeah,” she shrugs. “I know you’re probably sick of having to hang around me 24/7 and after my whole confession to you the other night–.”
“Betty,” Jughead cuts her off, “I’m not sick of you, and we don’t have to talk about this.”
“We do. It happened and that’s that, but I’m not really trying to bring it back up. I’m trying to say that going to this party might be just the thing I need to get over the whole thing, you know? I can meet someone there. I’m sure tons of eligible guys will be at his party.” She doesn’t know why she’s saying this, okay yes, she does know why.
Half of her is telling him this so that he knows she’s trying to move past her crush on him, she doesn’t want him to have to worry about her or hurting her feelings. The other half is pure pettiness and she’s telling him in the hopes that he miraculously gets jealous at the news, and fights for her. She wants that to happen, as silly as it sounds.
Whatever he feels, he doesn’t show it. He just stays serious as he starts walking again, dragging her along with him as their arms are still linked.
“I’m going with you,” he tells her. Her heart races at that. Could it be because he’s jealous of the idea of her trying to find someone else? “You never know who could be there,” the next part of the sentence sounds rushed and fake, like the kind recited from a script. “For all we know, your stalker could be someone just as famous as you.”
Her entire mood deflates like a popped balloon.
“Right,” she says. “Of course.”
Chuck Clayton has a huge house just like everyone else Jughead has met so far. It’s located in Beverly Hills and he would laugh at the complete pretentiousness of it all, but he just bites his lip and decides not to make any snarky comments. His face must say it all though, as Betty and him get dropped off in front of the house, because the tiny blonde is looking at him uneasy.
“He’s a decent guy,” she says as if Jughead even cares, as if that’s somehow going to make him want to be here. It doesn’t. But I need to make sure she’s safe.
“Didn’t you say he was an asshole just this morning?”
He hasn’t known Betty that long, just about two months but he knows that she’s a girl who trusts people way too easily. If he had his way, he’d leave her in the apartment all day where he knew she’d be out of harm’s way. He has this undeniable need to protect her. He’s fully aware that it’s technically his job, but it feels like more that that these days. Less-than-innocent ideas shouldn’t be blooming in his stupidly unprofessional mind when he’s practically pressed against her every day, teaching her to fight. The way she’d lied down for him in a split second, and the sound she made the other day had still been replaying in his mind like the most sensual soundtrack to an otherwise bland day in the life of a 24-hour bodyguard.
Betty’s not the first woman he’s had to step in and protect. He’s been a bodyguard for actresses, models, personalities, and he’d felt never felt this protective over any of them before. He blames it on the fact that her situation is a bit more serious and she doesn’t seem to realize just how serious it all is. Going out to concerts and parties while her life was quite literally on the line? It was reckless and stupid, something Jughead would never allow had she been his, but she isn’t his. She’s just the girl he’s paid to protect. It’s what he repeats to himself constantly, branding it into his brain.
“He was nice during the shoot,” she defends but he sees the way her cheeks redden. She does that a lot around him. He wonders if it’s because she’s embarrassed or if it’s something more.
“Just because he’s nice once doesn’t mean he’s a nice guy.” Betty doesn’t knock as they reach the front door and he wonders if that’s just common around here; people just letting themselves into other’s homes. Is that how things work with celebrities? He doesn’t know, he wouldn’t know. He doesn’t necessarily like it though.
Betty ignores his words as they enter. She does that sometimes, he’s noticed. When she knows he’s right she just won’t answer him. It annoys him to no end, but he’s not about to bring it up to her. He has no reason to be annoyed at the fact that she doesn’t answer him sometimes. He had never talked this much to any of the other people he worked for, but Betty had been insistent that they be friends. It was ridiculous. He had tried to be cold towards her, to show her that he has no interest in being her friend, but Betty Cooper seemed like the type of girl who always got her away. That’s what happened with him at least.
Jughead had his days with Betty. Some days it seemed like they were truly friends and they’d laugh and joke about things and he’d forget he’s being paid to guard her life. Other days things seem tense between them and he knows that he’s being closed off with her. He’s not trying to, he doesn’t want to act like that around her, but he can’t help it. He’s aware what things look like in the public eye and the last thing he needs is her getting hurt over him because they were a little too close.
As soon as they get through the front door, Jughead wants to walk right back out. He could hear the music from outside, but now that they were inside of the house, it was so much louder and ringing in his ears. It was something that he’d never listen to if he had a choice and he grimaces at it.
“Oh, I like this song!” Betty tells him, a grin on her face. “My friend’s the one singing!”
Of course he is, Jughead wants to say. He doesn’t though. He just nods and gives her a smile that he’s sure makes him look like he’s ready to die.
“Hey, man!” Some guy yells from behind him. “So glad you could make it!” The guy brings Jughead in for a hug and Betty gives him a confused look, while he’s sure his face mirrors her own.
“Uh, thanks,” he says back uneasily but the guy has already ran off to someone else. “I’ve never seen that man before in my life.” His voice speaks right into her ear, so she could hear him over the music.
Betty laughs and he has to admit, it’s kind of funny.
“Welcome to Beverly Hills,” she says with a smile and Jughead smiles back at her. “We should find Chuck and say hi. It’s his party after all.”
The idea doesn’t sound appealing to him at all. This house is big enough that he could probably live here and never run into Chuck, so why do they have to go search him out willingly? This would be the one custom that these people decide to stick with. At least they’re polite, he thinks with a snort.
“And I’m kind of thirsty,” she tells him. “Could you get me a drink?”
He looks at her with a frown. Betty’s been better about drinking especially after what happened the last time and the talk they had. He doesn’t want this party to be something that sets her back.
“A Coca-Cola, please, I’m not going to drink tonight,” she confirms for him but she looks a little bummed out now and he realizes that she probably noticed the way he was looking at her. He doesn’t want to treat her like she’s a kid and he’s not trying to. It’s something he needs to work on and he knows it.
There’s a full bar inside of the house because of course there is. Betty walks over to it with him and stands by as he gets her a coke.
“Give me the can,” he tells the bartender. He’ll be damned if he lets this man pour the drink into the glass himself. “I’ll pour it for her.” The bartender gives him an ugly look, clearly offended, but Jughead couldn’t care less. When it comes to her, he isn’t taking any chances. He pours the drink himself and hands it over to Betty who takes it with a gracious smile. It was the little things, like an appreciative smile, that made it all worth it.
“He might be out by the pool,” she says randomly and it takes Jughead a minute to realize she’s still talking about Chuck.
“Okay.” He follows her outside, thoughts racing the entire time. He doesn’t trust Chuck at all. He’d only just met him today at the shoot and even then he hadn’t actually met him at all. He’d only seen him from a distance, but something about him was off. The way he stared at Betty was nearly predatory. His eyes would linger on her like an animal stalking its prey and he had made more than enough comments about her “poise” and “grace” all damn day. It had been exhausting to listen to and Jughead had wanted to yell at him to shut the fuck up several times. Why couldn’t the guy just do his damn job and keep his trap shut without hitting on Betty? It was obnoxious and it annoyed Jughead that Betty seemed to be falling for it.
Sure enough, Betty was right. As soon as they get outside they spot Chuck. He’s standing by the pool in white pants with no shirt on. He looks like a douchebag. It’s not even hot outside to be swimming so why the hell is he shirtless? Jughead gives Betty a sympathetic look she doesn’t catch, when she shudders from the chill in the air.
Jughead’s wearing a black long-sleeve shirt and black jeans with boots because it’s cold outside. Even Betty is wearing a pair of white jeans with a blue sweater on. He decides that Chuck is an idiot and it’s a wonder how no one else seems to see it.
“Betty!” Chuck yells out as he sees her, walking over to them and leaving the girl he had been talking to before. The girl looks annoyed and Jughead wonders if he’s wearing the same expression she is.
“Look at us,” he says as he nears them, “Matching pants! It was meant to be.” Betty laughs at his words as she looks down at their jeans. Jughead has to refrain from getting her Coke and throwing it on Chuck’s jeans.
“I’m so glad you could make it.” He brings her in for a hug and his hand rests a little too closely to her ass. Jughead glares at him. Chuck smirks back, to his annoyance.
“Thank you for inviting me,” she tells him. “I brought a friend.”
“Hey, man,” Chuck says offhandedly, not even looking at Jughead as he says it. Jughead doubts he would have even said anything if Betty hadn’t mentioned she’d brought him along. Jughead doesn’t say anything back, he just nods in acknowledgement.
“Come on, Betty,” Chuck says as he grabs Betty’s wrist rather tightly and leads her over to a group of people standing by a bar. “I have some friends I want you to meet.”
Jughead follows behind them, suddenly feeling like a third wheel although he knows that he has no right to. He’s Betty’s bodyguard, this is how things are supposed to be; him in the back, following and watching, but never actually being a part of anything. He’s not supposed to want her to hold his hand, or drag him off places to do indecent things…..
Chuck introduces her to some guys that are on the same team with him. In any other world, in any other scenario, Jughead would probably be freaking out over standing in front of NBA players, but not now. Now he just feels annoyance as they all fawn over Betty, talking about how much they love her work and how she’s even more beautiful in person. No shit, he thinks to himself. He’s told her that before, how beautiful she is, but he doesn’t say it the way these guys do. He says it and he means it. He means that she’s beautiful on the inside, even more so than she is on the outside. She’s different than anyone he’s ever met before, with a kind heart and eyes to match. She’s the type of girl who would do anything for the people she cares about and that’s what makes her beautiful. These guys though? They tell her she’s beautiful as they stare her up and down. They don’t mean it, Jughead thinks bitterly.
A couple of the guys have girlfriends with them and they still smile a bit too much and for a bit too long at Betty. They don’t seem to see the way their boyfriends are looking at her. Jughead wonders if he’s the only who here who can actually see what’s going on.
They’ve been there for a while, Jughead’s just off to the side and Betty’s talking to one of the girls that had introduced herself as Marisol. He’s bored. He doesn’t get bored easily, but right now he is so bored that the pool looks really inviting to him. He’s clocked out on all the conversation around him and is taken by surprise when Marisol puts a hand on his arm.
“What’s your name?” She asks him, seeming genuinely curious. “You didn’t introduce yourself.”
“No,” he says blandly, “I didn’t.” Just as he’s about to turn away from her, Betty stumbles over to him.
“This is Jughead!” She waves a bit on her feet and her words are slow. Jughead looks at her in confusion. She’s drinking a Coke, what the hell? There’s no way she’s drunk.
“Jughead?” It’s Chuck who says his name, sounding like an asshole as he snorts. “That’s an interesting name.” He places his hand around Betty’s waist and brings her closer to him. She falls into his chest, but the action looks weird. She smiles and lets out a delirious laugh. Something’s wrong.
“Betty, are you okay?” He moves forward, ignoring Chuck as his focus turns back towards Betty.
“She’s fine, man,” Chuck says, pulling Betty back and stepping away from Jughead. “Aren’t you, Betty?”
Her eyes close slowly and she opens her mouth twice, moving it but no sound comes out. “J–j–…”
“What the fuck?” Jughead yells out. He looks around and sees Betty’s drink, half empty and left alone on the bar top. His entire body feels hot in anger as he realizes what’s going on. “What the fuck did you do to her?”
She sways in Chuck’s arms and now his friends turn their attention towards them as they hear Jughead’s words.
“I didn’t do anything to her,” Chuck says, anger growing. “She’s fine!”
Jughead ignores him as he reaches forward and grabs Betty’s arm. “Come on, we’re going home.”
“Home?” Chuck says. “What are you? Her boyfriend?” He says it so sarcastically and the look on his face is so smug that the words come flying out of Jughead’s mouth before he can even stop himself.
“Actually I am, asshole.”
Chuck looks taken aback before he smirks again. “Funny. She didn’t seem to think to mention that to me. You must not be that important, giving the way she’s hanging on me right now.”
Betty tries to talk again, but nothing comes out and her head drops to one side, her eyes half-lidded.
“What did you do to her?”
“It’s not what I did to her,” Chuck laughs. “It’s what I’m going to do to her. She doesn’t look like she’s complaining, does she?”
Jughead doesn’t think after that. He pulls Betty away from Chuck and hands her to Marisol who looks completely shocked.
“What the fu–?” Chuck doesn’t have time to finish his sentence before Jughead lunges towards him, punching him right in the face. He staggers backwards, but doesn’t go down. “You’re going to fucking pay for that,” he spits out and lands a punch to Jughead’s cheekbone.
Jughead tackles him to the ground and begins to punch him in the face repeatedly. They both roll around on the ground, gaining power over the other before losing it again. He can’t feel his face or his knuckles, he doesn’t know how long he’s been fighting with Chuck for. All he can focus on is making sure that Chuck pays for whatever he did to Betty.
“Hey, Betty, stay awake! Come on! What happened?” Marisol screeches.
“Betty?” He yells out to her, taking his attention off of Chuck as he runs over to Betty. He’s scared to touch her and he watches in horror as her eyes roll back and her legs stop supporting her weight. She drops to the floor, as people stare and take pictures.
“You roofied her? Are you fucking kidding me?” As much as he’d love to pound Chuck’s face in, Jughead turns to Betty instead, and drops to his knees next to Betty on the ground. There are tears falling down his face as he starts crying. He doesn’t know what to do. He’s supposed to protect Betty, but he doesn’t know what to do. He feels for a pulse, but it’s faint.
“Betty? Betty, you’re going to be okay. I swear to God, you’re going to be okay.” It falls on deaf ears though, she’s too far gone to understand a single word of anything he’s said. Color had drained from her face as air rushed in and out from her parted lips. He’s never felt so desperate to see her blink, at least.
“Betty?” He yells. “Hey, hey! No, wake up!” He touches her face, she’s sweating and her hair is damp. He places his hands on her chest. He wipes at his face again, ignoring Chuck’s snickers behind his back.
“Please stay with me, wake up,” he whispers out desperately. She won’t react but he’d do anything to hear a single word.
He knew roofies usually weren’t dangerous. Chances are, since it wasn’t mixed with alcohol, she’d likely recover just fine after being sick for a while. But part of him couldn’t bear to imagine the what if.
I’m so sorry, Betty…please, I just need you with me.

Woah, I cannot believe the reaction to this fic! Honestly, I don't know what came over me when I started to write Who She Was, How She Loved. Clearly something very depressing. Honestly I can't thank everyone who has read and responded enough! I know it's a bit unconventional but I'm so happy with the response. I wish I could reply to every single one of you personally but there's quite a few and it might get repetitive. But I am so motivated to keep writing, thanks for letting me make you feel something :) Also if you haven't read it and want to commit emotional suicide, it's here: https://allskynostars.tumblr.com/post/162529001783/who-she-was-how-she-loved Love you all!!!!

The Rear Window by @jugandbettsdetectiveagency​ (4/?)WIP / Rating TSummary: Rear Window AU. When injured photojournalist Jughead Jones thinks he sees a man murder his wife from the window of his apartment it’s up to him to convince the police, and socialite-cum-girlfriend Betty Cooper, that what he saw actually happened, and what starts out as an investigation may just be the key to unlocking a few of their own skeletons in the closet.
27 Dresses (Bughead Edition) by vintagelovestories (3/?)WIP / Rating: TSummary: Betty Cooper discovered her love for weddings at a young age. She has worn a lot of dresses, but she hasn’t gotten to be a bride yet.

When Betty confides in Jughead that she’s worried her secret crush will think her too inexperienced a kisser, Jughead offers to help her practice, even though he knows that her crush is Archie and thinks that those two are endgame. Basically, he thinks he’s doomed. Loosely inspired by fabulous 80s teen romance Some Kind of Wonderful.
The Edge of Forever by @createandconstruct (2/?)WIP / Rating: TSummary: The macaroni tilts from Jughead’s fork matching the angle of his curving brows. “A teenage… excursion?”Two perfectly polished fingers snap nearly an inch from the boy’s nose. “Keep those foreboding floodgates closed Cameron Frye.” The red velvet nails retreat to move a black strand away from their owner’s particularly smug smile. “I’m not your average Ferris Bueller – I actually have a plan.”

“Definitely.”
Jughead turned to Betty. He had a smile creeping up on his face as the sunlight fell over his face as they headed home. A warmth spread through her shoulders, seeping into her skin and travelling all the way down to her toes. She was nervous and excited and fucking terrified. But in that moment as Jughead took a left down to Brooklyn for their apartment and she watched as his hands cut the wheel, and she realized she was happy. She was happy for the first time in awhile.
They reached their apartment and Betty waited behind him as he shook the keys into the lock before hearing the click.
“I just need to clean up and then we could get some food?”
“I actually have a shift at Pop’s but we can still go. You can watch me and my amazing serving skills.”
“As much as I would love to see that, maybe I’ll call Archie. See if he hasn’t disowned me yet.” Betty joked as she bit her lip between her teeth.
“Archie can’t stay mad at you, he’s just worried about you.”
“Archie can’t stay mad at anyone.”
“Yeah, he’s such a dork isn’t he?”
“Totally.”
Betty walked to the bathroom but before she could close the door, Jughead was in the doorway. A smirk spread all over his face with his arm leaning into the side of the doorframe.
“You know, we should give Archie more credit. I mean he is rooting for us.”
Jughead quirked his eyebrow at the blonde as she turned on the shower. Betty rolled her eyes as she watched him mock her for her slip up earlier in the truck. Why did he have to be so good it though? She asked herself as her eyes raked over the boy in the doorway.
“Deciding whether or not you want me to join you? I mean yes, we do have another shower, but you know it’s not fair that you get to use up all the hot water first. I mean, that’s not any way how to repay me for my many wonderful qualities.”
Jughead read off his speech as he used hand gestures and his eyes lit up. Betty giggled as she walked over to the door grabbing onto the doorknob.
“You know I think you can handle the cold water. I mean just from common sense, I’m guessing you’ve had to take a couple cold showers in your life.”
Jughead’s jaw dropped a little as he had a face of fake betrayal watching her as she closed the door on him.
Why is she always winning our battles and why does it always end with her escaping it by taking a shower?
---
“Wow I’m sorry to hear that Arch.”
“It’s okay, I think we had been trying so long to keep our relationship together that I think we forgot the reasons why we were even in it. I love her. But I don’t think we’re in love with each other anymore.”
Archie finished his drink as he watched Jughead taking orders from an old couple down the aisle behind him. When he turned his head back to Betty he saw her looking in the same direction. Her eyes were bright and her lower lip was hiding under her front teeth.
“Someone looks hungry.” Archie teased as Betty jerked out of her drooling session.
“Ye-aah a, uhm I was thinking about getting pancakes.”
“Yeah mhhhm that’s what you were thinking about eating.” Archie slowly brought the menu up, failing at hiding the grin on his face.
Betty’s eyes narrowed as her cheeks flushed at the insinuation.
“Shuuut uuuppp.” Betty sang in a whisper as she pretended to read over her menu, slowly flipping the laminated pages.
“Fine. So can I ask about what happened last night? I’m sorry I called Jughead but you-“
“Archie, I’m not mad.”
Archie let out a sigh in relief.
“In fact, even though I hate that this is where I am now. I think calling Jug was the best thing that you could have done for me in that situation.”
“How are you doing? Did you and him talk when you got home? In fact why are you up this early? I mean I don’t pass down any time to hang out with my favorite blonde for breakfast but I thought you would still be downing advils at this hour.”
That made Betty laugh.
“Well he didn’t take me home actually.”
Archie sent a humorous look her way. Eyebrows raised and confusion written all over his face.
“I’m not exactly sure where he drove around for the four hours in-between, but I woke up in the parking lot of a rehabilitation center on West Broadway.”
Archie was shocked by the news. He couldn’t help but to think the words Wow, Jughead actually listened to me for once.
“So you guys talked then.”
“Oh yeah, we talked.” Betty rolled her yes as she exaggerated the previous line.
“But I think for the first time in awhile we’re not lying to each other. He needed to yell at me, it was about time. It wasn’t good for any of us ignoring the situation and I think if he didn’t I would have started to drag him down with me.” Betty’s eyes softened as she gazed at Jughead running over to the counter to give Pop the table’s order he had just taken.
Archie noticed a little sadness in her look, she was definitely afraid of hurting him he realized.
“I wouldn’t have let that happen. I would have kicked your ass before you took my beanie boy away from me.” Archie joked as his voice got higher by the end of his threat.
“I’m sorry did you just say beanie boy?”
“Yes.”
“Oh my god you guys seriously need to get a room.”
“Uhm I think that’s your job.”
“What’s your job?”
Betty jumped as Jughead appeared at the end of the table with his pad and pen in hand. A little strand was falling over his face and his grin widened as he turned to her. God, the apron looked good on him she thought to herself.
“Uh-uhhh…”
“Betty was just talking about how she was thinking of taking the week off.”
Archie interjected while receiving a panicked look from the blonde. What. The. Hell.
“Really?” Jughead said in a soft tone as his voice lined with hope. Her chest warmed at the glimmer in Jughead’s eyes as he asked the question. Oh, fuck it.
“Well yeah, I thought, I thought maybe we could go on that road trip down to California that you’ve always wanted to do. But, but you’re probably busy and have work and responsibilities and don’t want to-“
“I’m there. Count me in, Betts.” Her heart fell to her stomach. “But we’re taking the truck. No buts!”
“But the Camaro! It’s California! Juggie!” Archie shrieked as the girl whined the nickname and he observed the pair bickering in front of him.
“You can’t drive across the country in that. And there’s no legroom. Betts the truck is the best option.”
“But what’s the point of having a convertible if I don’t even use it when this opportunity appears?”
“You’re seriously saying that you’d seriously spend 50 hours cramped up in that car just for the sake of preserving you’re aesthetic?”
“Ye-“
“Betty, Jughead’s right. Trust me, you want all the room you can get for that drive.” Archie wiggled his eyebrows as he said the words ‘all the room you can get’. The top of Betty’s ears reddened and suddenly Jughead felt nervous. Archie was getting way too much out of witnessing this. Way too much.
An awkward silence filled the table until Jughead asked their orders.
“I’ll have some eggs and sausage please, and a slice of that chocolate cake.”
“Chocolate cake at 8:00 am Archie? Really?”
“What? Can’t a guy enjoy some chocolate cake? Gosh you can be so judgmental sometimes Jug-gie.” Archie said as he faked being sad and held the most ridiculous pout Betty had ever seen.
“How am I still friends with you guys?”
“Cauuuse you love us.” Both Jughead and Archie said in unison. Betty was thoroughly not amused by the sight.
“I think you guys have mistaken adoration for pure aversion.”
“Whatever, Elizabeth. Didn’t you say you wanted pancakes earlier hmmm?”
Archibald why must you be like this? Betty asked herself as her face fell into her hands.
“What’s wrong with her?” Jughead asked innocently.
“Oh she just really wants some pancakes.”
“All righty then.”
