Archie and Jughead- Archie hurts his ankle
rchie threw the basketball into the hoop again. He smiled.
"Hey Arch!" Jughead said, eating a hamburger as he came up behind Archie.
"Hey Jug! What's up?" Archie said, looking at his best friend.
"Nothing. Hey, want to play one-on-one?" Jughead asked, finishing his burger. Archie nodded.
"Sure!" Archie agreed, and threw the ball to Jughead to start it off. Jughead started it off, then dribbled the basketball. Archie blocked Jughead from scoring a point, then dribbled it back and jumped up to score a point. Jughead blocked him, and Archie came back down to the ground, hard, on his ankle.
"OW!" Archie screamed in pain, falling to the ground. He looked at his ankle, and saw it at a weird angle.
"I think it may be broken, Arch.." Jughead said. Archie nodded in agreement.
"Can you take me to the hospital?" Archie asked Jughead. Jughead nodded.
"Sure. I'm sorry about getting you hurt." Jughead said, helping Archie up so he wouldn't put any weight on his ankle. Archie shook his head.
"Its fine. Not your fault." Archie said through gritted teeth, trying to get through the pain. Jughead helped him to his car and got him in. Jughead drove to the hospital, telling jokes to try and get Archie's mind off of the pain. He pulled in to the emergency room and helped Archie out. He helped him get checked in and to call his parents. The doctor finally called Archie back and got x-rays done. His ankle was, indeed, broken.
"So, Mr. Andrews, what color cast do you want?" The doctor asked. Archie smiled.
"I would like red, please." Archie said. The doctor smiled and began to put a red cast on Archie. The nurse helped fit Archie with his crutches, then they sent him on his way.
"Thanks for helping me today, Jug. It means a lot." Archie said. Jughead smiled.
"No problem. Wanna go to Pop's?" Jughead asked.
"Yeah! Let's go!" Archie said, hopping along on his crutches. Jughead smirked. His friend would probably get hurt with those crutches, seeing how clumsy he is. But he wouldn't trade Archie for anyone else.
AN: Hope it was good! This is my first Archie fanfic ever!
