After a senior prank goes wrong, River Vixen Betty Cooper is forced to complete community service at the Riverdale Public Library with high school outcast, Jughead Jones. Romance ensues. AU/OOC/Slow Burn/Sexy stuffs way later on (more story than smut. This is not 50 Shades of Grey), hence the slow burn

"They fell apart together like a perfect storm- electric and reckless, forceful and beautiful, illuminating and powerful..."- Jughead catches Betty changing, and things get heated! Part of The Perfect Engima series, but posted here so I didn't have to up the rating :)

There are different kinds of homelessness. Jughead finds a kindred spirit in the most unsuspecting of places, and together they work to find answers about Jason's murder and their own uncertain futures. We're all a little broken, and if you put enough stress on those cracks, we'll shatter.

Jughead is not interested in girls, ironically this seems to make a lot of them interested in him. Except for Betty, and it drives him crazy when she won't show any interest in him after spending so many late nights together working on The Blue and Gold. (Bughead)

I'd like to answer the biggest question left by the Riverdale season 1 cliffhanger. No, not "Will Fred Andrews live?" but "Did Betty and Jughead ever have sex?" Spoiler, this story is rated M.

"Beautiful," she says. "Yeah," he agrees, eyes never leaving her face. - 5 times Jughead's feelings for Betty were totally (not) platonic (at all). And one time his feelings were a lot more than that.

Five encounters that begin with a subtle realization. Inspired by great chemistry between the actors portraying Jughead and Betty, and the spoilers for future episodes. Rated M for later chapters.
