"Glad you like this, doll." Reggie said.
"Thanks, Reggie."
They were sitting in the café, eating and drinking. Veronica wondered what had become of her plan to win Archie over Betty. She did love him; she actually went with Reggie only to get out of the situation at the movies.
"Well, so what should we do tomorrow?"
"Sorry, Reg. I have to do some Calculus and Physics homework tomorrow." Veronica lied. She was actually planning on doing some shopping the next day.
"Oh, then call me up whenever you want to hang out with a guy other than Carrot-top."
"See you later, Reg."
"Bye, doll."
Veronica walked out of the café, looking all elegant and fashionable in a black leather skirt with a designer turquoise top. I really love Archie, but Betty has him too. I guess I should let them be together, since she's my best friend and all. She's like a sister to me, since I don't have any siblings...Veronica didn't know Betty had already broken up with Archie.
Saturday, January 31– At the mall
"Betty, that looks so cute on you!" Veronica exclaimed as Betty tried on some accessories. They had gone shopping together to the mall. Veronica was going for the expensive clothes; Betty for the more sporty ones.
"Really? It's definitely chic, but I think I'll try this on. Hey, did you hear about Archie and me?"
"What happened?"
Betty sighed. "He's all yours, Ronnie. I broke up with him yesterday at the movies. He didn't say anything, and so we went in to watch the movie. After that, nothing happened."
Veronica was shocked. She thought Betty would always love Archie. What's the matter with her? I thought she was going to follow Archie around all the time..
"Well, Veronica," Betty began in an implacable tone. "Juggie also told me something that I thought was funny at first, but now I realize it was funny only on his part. You, Veronica Lodge, tried bribing Jughead to take me out just so you could be with Archie."
Veronica just stood there, like a statue. But her mind was racing. Forsythe Pendleton Jones, I could kill you…Why the heck did you tell them? In reality, she was beginning to see light. She realized how she had manipulated Jughead into her plan. But, on the other hand, it shows how much I love Archie…
"Well, Ronnie," Betty said. "It seems that you can be with Archie, and since he loves you, it should be fine between you…unless...you don't love him.."
"I don't know, Betty," Veronica said in a tired voice. "I guess so. Listen, let's go home, since I really need to think things over. Besides, Daddy would melt all my credit cards if I bought any more things."
Coming up - What happens when Veronica goes home? This story will have a lot of twists and turns... do I get a review on this chap?
I can't believe I've been updating everyday since I spend only an hour or two at this. I guess the words just flow right out easily…and my chaps are really short..
