As soon as Betty got in the truck Sweet Pea drove out of the trailer park and to Archie's house.
"So, you are going out wit Jughead tonight?" Sweet Pea asked
"Ah sorry Sweets but I broke up with Jughead and I am going out with Archie now."
"Oh, that's fine, you seem happier anyway and that's all that matters."
Betty didn't reply she just sat there smiling, when Sweet Pea pulled up to Archie's driveway Betty gave Sweet Pea a kiss on the cheek.
"Thanks for driving me Sweets, Bye." Betty said
Betty walked up to the front door of the Andrews house as Sweet Pea drove away, she heard someone yell here name.
"Betty! Its Jughead."
"Oh, Hi"
"How are you doing?"
"Sorry Jug I can't talk right now I have a date. See you later bye."

"Arch you got yourself a good one, don't lose her." Reggie said
"I know she's the best thing that has ever happened to me." Archie said
Betty blushed
"Well have a great night guys." Reggie said
"Yah you too" Archie said
They walked out of the speakeasy and back to Pop's, this time Veronica and Jughead spotted them first. Archie lead Betty to a table, they sat on the same side of the booth. Veronica waved at Betty, Betty waved back. Archie kissed her she kissed him back, they broke apart and Betty put her head on his shoulder and cuddled into him.
"Betty?" Archie said
"Yah."
"Would you want to be my girlfriend?"
"I'd love too Arch!" Betty smiled
"I know this is really soon, but are you sure?"
"Of course, I am Arch if I wasn't over Jug would I have slept over at your house or gone on a date with you?"
"No, you wouldn't have."
"Plus, everything with Jug was fake. We are all real" Betty smiles

"I know, its just I really like you and I wanted it to be perfect." Said Betty
"It was perfect, you know why." Said Archie

"Aww Arch you're the sweetest, thanks for driving me home." Said Betty
"Anytime, you wanna come to my football tomorrow night?" Said Archie
"I won't miss it for the world." Said Betty
They pulled up right beside Bettys trailer, Archie parked the car and leaned in to kiss Betty. Betty turned her head and took his face in her hands, it was a soft gentle kiss. Betty opened her door to get out of the car. Archie got out and walked Betty to her door, when they got to the door Betty unlocked it and turned around to give Archie another kiss but this time it was short, Betty spoke up.
"Goodnight Archiekins." Betty said
"I'm not even allowed in." Said Archie
"Nope, maybe another time when we don't have school the next day." Betty said
"Fine, Goodnight Betts." Archie said softly
"Night, Archiekins have a safe drive home." Betty said
Archie opened his arms and Betty went in them for a warming goodnight hug.
"You're the best." Archie whispered in her ear
"Only to you my Archiekins." Betty said
"I'll text you when I get home." Archie said pulling away from the hug
"Ok, Goodnight." Betty said
Archie walked away and jumped into his truck and started the engine, Betty opened her door and went inside. Archie drove off right after Betty was safely inside her trailer. Archie's drive home was quiet mostly because he was the only one in the truck. When Archie got home it was around 10pm and Fred was siting on the couch waiting for him to come home. Archie walked into the house.
"Hey Dad, I'm home." Said Archie
"Hey Arch, how was your date?" Fred said
"It was great but Jughead ruined it." Said Archie
"Why?" Fred asked
"Jug used to date Betty but she choice me and now he's mad about it." Archie said
"I see, just go get some sleep you have school tomorrow." Said Fred
"Ok, love you dad. Night." Archie said
"Night Arch." Fred said
Archie turned away from his dad and walked up the stairs to his bedroom, when Archie reached his room, he texted Betty.
Hey Betts, made it home safely. Have a great sleep!
Night Archiekins
Archie smiled at her response, he liked her and not in any kind of fake way.
