Chapter 63: The Jughead Incident!
I KNOW IT'S BEEN A WHILE, BUT IT WAS SUPER BUSY AT WORK AND SCHOOL GOT TO ME BAD. OH WELL, HERE IS THE NEXT CHAPTER!
WARNING! ADULT CONTENT! I'LL LET YA KNOW WHEN!
*Aria's POV*
School had started again 3 weeks ago, my almost full time work now reduced to part time, babysitting had been reduced as well, and, to top it off, this was my last year in high school. I haven't thought about what I wanted to do, where I wanted to go, nothing. Zip, zero, Nada, nothing. I was frustrated but decided to worry about it a bit later on. For now, it was getting dark, not blistering hot but nice and warm on this Saturday evening. In jeans and my usual top, no gloves but a bunch of bracelets, silver hoop earrings, open toed strapped black heels and my hair up in the usual ponytail with black feathers in my hair, usual angel wing black eye liner with light purple eye shadow and pink lip gloss, I waited outside the theater for Jughead, tapping my foot.
*He's late.* I thought as I looked around. I had purchased tickets for a horror flick and it was going to start soon. I didn't see him at all. I then caught a glimpse of shaggy blonde hair and frowned.
*Oh no* I thought in disdain.
"Well, hello.~ What ya doing out here alone, babe?" The slime ball, Vinnie Wells, asked as he got too close to me.
"Back off, Vinnie." I snarled at him. He had gotten on my nerves and in trouble too for not paying a bill twice. His grandma paid and apologized profusely, which made me feel guilty, but still didn't excuse Vinnie's behavior.
"What?~ I'm just wondering why a lovely thing like you is doing here alone? Date stood ya up?" He asked me in a sickly sweet tone.
"Vinnie, I mean it. Leave. Me. Alone." I snarled at him.
"I'm just asking, babe. I heard you dumped that nerd. Good on ya, but you need to ditch the loser and date a man." He tells me as he got closer. I side stepped away from him.
"So what if I did? Also, Jughead is not a loser and, as for the man part, if you mean you then you're nothing but scum." I tell him with a bit of snap to it. He stepped closer.
"What can I do to get your attention, then?" He asked me suddenly.
"I'm not interested in you at all, but for a start you can shower, shave and brush your darn teeth. They are awful!" I say as I side stepped away again, waving my hand in front of my nose to indicate he stunk.
"If I do that, then you'd date me?" He asked me.
"Hell no, but you'd be a bit more tolerable." I tell him, but then mentally smacked my forehead for opening my mouth. I had a Hagrid, shouldn't have told ya that, moment.
"Why are you always mean to me?" Vinnie suddenly asked me. I shot him a look.
"Why must you, insist on, flirting with me? I'm not interested in you nor will I ever be." I said to him.
"I'm serious! I compliment you, I tell you my honest opinions and you turn me down every time!" He said sternly to me. My glare hardened.
"Your 'compliments' are sexist and lewd, your 'opinions' are you being a bully and a jerk, and I will always turn you down because you're not my type. I might dress like a 'bad girl' but I'm not and I don't fall for the jocks nor the bad boys. Besides, you're nothing but a delinquent who's one step away from prison." I told him my exact thoughts. He grit his teeth at my words while clenching his fist. I decided to be ready just in case he decided to hit me again.
"I'm just honest." He grits out.
"No, you're a jerk. There's a difference." I told him. I now heard his knuckles crack from him clenching his fists so tightly.
"You gonna hit me again? Or maybe you'll try to sneak up on me with a crowbar again?" I said in a tone that said 'do it, I dare ya'.
"You just won't let that go, will ya?" Vinnie says in an angry tone.
"You broke my nose and almost made me blind in one eye. You think I'd forget that? Or even forgive you? Not in your dreams." I told him as I was still on my guard.
"I only did it to teach you a lesson." He said as I saw his face starting to turn red. Yup, he was getting mad.
"A lesson? Wow. I bet your dad used to beat you, then." I said out loud with an eye roll before my eyes widened a bit.
*Did I just say that out loud?* I thought worriedly. I was confirmed of that when Vinnie swung a punch at me. I moved away from him, barely missing the punch, but stumbled backwards and went right into a wall. Vinnie had me pinned, his arms on each side of my head, as he had a wild look in his eyes.
"You really need to learn to shut up and not pry in my life." Vinnie said in a low tone, words full of venom, as he had a wild angry look in his eyes.
*I think I hit a nerve.* I thought as I tried not to show how meek and, truly, scared I felt at this moment.
"D-did he?" I nervously asked. I tried not to be, but it came out. The look in Vinnie's eyes never went away as he formed a smirk.
"Do I get pity points, then?" He asked as he grabbed my chin and held it to keep me looking at him.
"It would explain a lot." I say to him. He gave a small scowl at my words.
"Why does it matter? Once a criminal, always a criminal. That's how everyone sees it, and I'm sure you do too. Right?" He asked as his grip on my chin tightened a bit.
"No, not always. It only matters if they want to change." I told him as I showed a small bit of sympathy. His face went blank at my words. I don't think anyone, other than his grandma, has ever told him that. I saw Jughead from across the street, getting ready to run over.
"Could you please let me go now? My movie is about to start." I asked him kindly. As soon as Jughead came over, Vinnie let me go and backed up 2 steps.
"Goodnight Vinnie. Tell your grandma I said hello." I said before walking to Jughead, grabbing his arm, then hurried inside while Vinnie did nothing but watch me, that same blank look on his face. Once inside I turned and hugged Jughead while shaking.
"Are you alright?" He asked me worriedly as he hugged me back.
"Yeah." I say as my legs nearly gave out on me.
"Did he hurt you? Was he going to?" Jughead asked me worriedly as he had me look at him to make sure I was fine.
"I'm alright, he just scared me was all." I tell him truthfully. Jughead looked at me, ready to ask more, but I cut him off.
"Why were you late?" I suddenly asked.
"Sorry, Jellybean kept wanting to play airplane and I lost track of time." Jughead explained with a sheepish smile. My heart melted at that.
"You're such a sweetheart. Especially to your baby sister." I say as I fluttered my eyes at him. He was amazing with kids. He blushed at this and I giggled from that.
"Let's get some snacks before the movie." I say as I felt better. Jughead gave a big smile.
"Yum, snacks!" He exclaimed happily with a big smile, which made me giggle again.
"You're so adorable." I fawned as we went up to the counter. I smiled when I saw Arnie.
"Tonk'peh Arnie." I greeted with the Spock hand symbol.
"Tonk'peh Aria, Tonk'peh Jughead." Arnie greeted with a small blush but not stuttering like he usually did.
"Still working here?" I asked him.
"Yes, but that's ok. Oh yeah, I wanted to tell you both, I'll be starting a Dungeons and Dragons campaign soon." Arnie tells us.
"Sweet. What about?" Jughead asked.
"A setting with the usual magic stuff but with aliens and mild technology added. Would you two like to join?" Arnie asked us.
"Heck yeah!" Jughead said happily.
"Sure. Sounds interesting." I say with a smile.
"Cool. I'll email you the sheets and we can go from there." Arnie said with a smile.
"Who else is joining?" I asked curiously.
"Well, you two so far. I'm trying to get at least two more people to join in." Arnie tells us.
"Sweet! Can't wait!" Jughead said happily. We ordered popcorn, drinks, nachos, candy and those big soft pretzels before we went in. Whenever Arnie was working, he'd give me and Jughead 10% off everything and put a refill sticker on the drinks for free every time.
Why?
Because we would chat about nerdy things and I even played chess with him once in a blue moon. Plus he had a mild crush on me. Arnie claimed Betty and I were the nerds' princesses because of how smart we were. I thought it was adorable. Plus he was going to be in the math club this year with Betty and Dilton and I was going to join this year to compete. I enjoyed math that much. Any how, Jughead and I watched a horror movie, Cabin Fever, as we snuggled. After the movie I walked with him home.
"That was a freaky one." Jughead admitted as we walked.
"Indeed, and disgusting. I nearly puked at some parts." I admitted to him. He walked me home before pulling me close to him, arms around my waist, and pulled me into a kiss. I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him back until the door opened up.
"Ahem." We both stopped kissing and looked at my dad. We blushed awkwardly.
"Hello, sir." Jughead greeted sheepishly.
"Hi dad." I muttered in embarrassment. My dad gave us both a stern look. Jughead immediately let me go and pulled away from me.
"Um… I'll see you tomorrow, Aria." Jughead said before he bolted away. I went to stop him, but he was off like a rocket.
"Bye." I called out with a frown before looking at my dad.
"Why do you insist on scaring him off?" I asked my dad seriously before walking in.
"I'm looking out for my little girl, that's all." He tells me truthfully.
"Dad, I know it's not just that." I say as I turned and looked at him.
"I haven't properly met him." Dad defended.
"Then why don't you two sit and talk?" I asked him.
"And if I don't like him?" He asked me.
"You will. Jughead is a wonderful guy, everyone likes him… Well, almost." I said as my mind went to Vinnie again.
"I can arrange that so I can see for myself. I just want to make sure he's good enough for you." Dad said to me.
"I get it, but I do care for him. He's amazing and wonderful." I say as I decided to take off my shoes.
"Why not date that Reggie boy? He seems nice and is well off." Dad suggested. I shot up and glared at him.
"No way! Reggie's a huge jerk and, as well off as he is, he's like sour milk after you drink it." I told dad. He then started laughing
"You are funny. Alright, I'll have a sit down with Jughead soon." Dad said after his laughing fit was over. I then went up to bed and wondered what tomorrow would be like, unaware of what was going to happen tomorrow.
*Vinnie's POV after the conflict*
I was still in shock as I watched Aria walk into the theater with that stupid Jones boy.
*What… What just happened?* I thought in shock as I just stood there, like a statue, until I finally decided to walk away.
*How dare she! How dare she act like she cares but keeps rejecting me! Acting like she understands me.* I thought bitterly as I turned down an ally. I huffed and leaned against the wall, pulling out a pack of smokes and a lighter. I lit a cigarette and inhaled before slowly blowing it out. I had just started this nasty habit and couldn't care less. After that puff, clearing my mind and emotions, I had a sudden realization.
*She does know what it's like.* I thought, hint of sadness, as I remembered hearing about her parents, reading the mirror mystery her and Andrews wrote, what her 'mother' had commented on when she first caught me watching her and much more. She was abused like me, by both parents. But hers was different from mine, only by a bit.
*At least her parents weren't criminals.* I thought sourly as I took another long drag. Babe was smart, no objections there, as she inadvertently figured out a bit more of my life.
"Does she know?" I muttered to myself as I tapped the ashes off my cigarette.
"No… I doubt it." I muttered as I lightly shook my head no before taking another drag.
*Still, she might find out sooner or later. That is, if she knows what to look for.* I thought bitterly before finishing my smoke. I dropped it, stepped on it, then started walking back to Gram's house.
"I wonder if she would." I muttered with a frown on my face. If she knew, if anyone knew, then would it matter? Only the adults in this town knew about my folks, about him, my father, while everyone else was left in the dark. I knew the adults thought the worse in me, ever since I was young, while rumors spread on and on. Once I was 11, I decided to give in. If they thought I was a delinquent, then I would act like one. Now, there's no turning back for me.
*But… She didn't think it… Did she? Of course she did! But then… But then why say that? Does she think I'm still capable of changing?* I thought as I got to my door. I scowled at my thoughts.
*Pfft. I'll never change! No one thinks I can, so why the hell bother?!* I thought as I went inside.
"Vincent, is that you?" Grams called out.
"Yeah, it's me." I called back.
"I hope you weren't getting into trouble." She called back to me. I walked down the worn down hall to the back of the one story house where my Gram's room was. This place was falling apart and we both knew it.
"No, just walking around. I ran into someone I knew was all." I told her as I pulled up a chair and sat in it right next to her bed. Gram's wasn't doing to well, I could see it, a lot of people could actually.
"Oh, someone good I hope." She asked, hoping it wasn't anyone bad near here.
"It was Aria. She wanted me to tell you she said hi." I told her as I glanced away.
"Oh, that sweet little red head waitress? Oh, I'm glad you two are friends. She's such a good young lady, and a good influence on you." She said as she gave a bright smile. I'd never admit it, I'd even deny it, but I love my Grams. She's the only one who loves me, who truly cares, who was nothing but good to me. Yeah, I break her heart every time I get caught doing something bad, but she still bailed me out every time. She didn't deserve me as a grandson, but what am I going to do? It's too late to change now. Aria's words echoed in my head and I scowled at that.
"Something wrong, Vincent?" Grams asked, constantly calling my by my full name, which I hated, with a worried look. I shook my head no.
"Naw, just thinking about school is all." I mumbled a piss poor excuse.
"Maybe I could hire a tutor for you? I know last year was tough on you but this year will be better." She assured me. I shook my head no.
"Naw, don't waste money on something stupid. I'll be fine." I told her as I tucked her in. She gave me a look before smiling softly.
"I wish you'd smile more, like when you were younger." She suddenly told me. I blinked before rolling my eyes but showed her a smile. Not my usual demented one, but a genuine one. One I used to show her when I was younger, when we would bake cookies together, go on walks, back when things were better. It took so much force to show her without scowling after. She smiled before hugging me and kissed my cheek. I pulled back before grabbing her dishes.
"Such a good boy you are." She muttered out before dozing off. As soon as she did, my scowl returned and I walked out. I went to the kitchen and washed the little dishes we had as I thought more on what was said from Aria and Grams.
*I'm not a good boy, I can't change. Even if I wanted too, no one would give me a chance, no one would care, and even then why bother? Babe won't ditch Jones to be with me. No, I would never change.* I thought before going to my crummy closet size room, flopped on my old mattress, then pulled out one of my note books.
I opened it and flipped it open to a page I taped in it. A picture of Aria, in her swim suit, from that magazine she was in. I smirked at seeing her like that, the smile on her face, the curve of her body, everything. I flipped to another one to a picture I had taken of her from the first Valentine's day dance she was at, with that sexy dress she wore. She had her arms up as her hips were swayed to the beat of the music. I pulled my mild erection out and began imagining her on me as I flipped the page to another one I took of her in gym class, running on the track, mildly sweating, breast bouncing, legs smooth and exposed. I pumped a bit faster as I flipped to another of her, on all fours at Pop's from behind, grabbing a pen she had dropped, and smirked at how lucky I was to get this one. I slowed down a but pumped harder as I flipped to another picture of her in her swimsuit, an older one, in the back yard of her cousin's place, asleep while tanning, as it also showed her damn dog coming outside as well. If that damn dog hadn't been there, I could've got more. She looked so attractive there, sleeping in the sun. I pumped faster again as I flipped through it to where I was almost caught doing this one. I had, barely, caught a picture of her, in just her panties but back turned, outside her window before she moved to her new home. I had forgotten my flash was on and was almost caught, but thankfully thunder boomed outside and I was hidden. After that, she had made sure her curtain was closed. I was very close now as I felt my member throbbing in my hand. I flipped over more and more pictures of her from school, her job, on dates, everywhere I could, even more photos from the magazine and the school year book, as I got to the last one. The one on her birthday where she got her first car. The pose, the smile, the joy. It was amazing. I looked next to it to where I had taped a picture of her kissing Jones, but ripped him out of it and put me there instead so it looked like I was kissing her.
'Bam'
I released all over myself, as usual, from this picture. I didn't do this every night, but I started to now since she's getting older. I'd purposefully failed just to be in school with her longer, plus I was doing bad anyhow so why bother trying? I grabbed a tissue and cleaned up before getting sleepy.
*Naw, I'll get my reward. Very soon.* I thought before drifting off to sleep.
*Next day, Aria's POV*
I didn't have to work today so I decided to work on my art. I was told to branch out more, explore other forms of art, go out of my comfort zone to try other things. I didn't like it much, but I was also interested as well. I was painting an odd collage of the night sky but it needed something else. I had added calla lilies on the corners and added tiny galaxies as well, but it felt boring. I sat there, looking at the painting I was doing in oil paints, while trying to think of what to do next. After a bit I sighed in frustration before standing up.
*Maybe a walk would help me think. I need more paint anyway.* I thought as I grabbed my wallet and darted out the door. I walked down to the shops when I saw Archie sneaking around.
"What the?" I muttered before heading over to him. He didn't see me so I decided to sneak up behind him.
"Archie!" I called out loudly in his ear. He screamed and jumped away before looking at my smiling face.
"Did you have to do that?" Archie asked me with an attitude while rubbing his, possibly ringing, ear.
"No, but it was too good to pass up." I say with a smile. Archie sighed, knowing he couldn't win, before looking around again.
"What are you doing?" I asked him curiously.
"Well, last night… Um..." Archie started telling be but then paused as if to think about it.
Archie?" I questioned him.
"I'm supposed to keep it secret, but you're my partner with the articles. Ok." Archie contemplated before deciding on the ok. He pulled me close to him to whisper it.
"Keep it between us." He whispered to me.
"Got it." I say to him.
"Ok. Last night I saw a space ship, but couldn't go because of my date with Veronica. Anyway, I ran into two agents, X and Y, and they told me the earth is in danger and I have to find an alien in disguise before the planet gets invaded." He whispered to me.
"Oh geez, not aliens again." I muttered in annoyance.
"Yup." Archie whispered back.
"Well, I'm going to the shops to pick up more paint for my art project. I'll keep an eye open for people out of place, but you should be much more subtle about what you're doing. You are the one that looks suspicious." I say to him before walking off. Archie had looked confused but that was my cousin for ya. Usually dense. I went into an art shop and was looking at oil paints while thinking more on my project rather than the aliens. I had noticed two people in Hawaiian shirts, looking suspicious since they didn't look like they were browsing, but figured they were tourists or the agents in disguise, not aliens.
"Afternoon Aria, finding everything alright?" The shop keeper, Mr. Wilkins, called out to me from the front.
"Yes, just thinking on my project is all." I called back as I picked out a few tubes.
"That reminds me, I have a new set of brushes I wanted to show you. I just got them in and I thought 'Who better to show than my number one customer'?" Mr. Wilkins said. I looked at him, seeing him smile, as I grabbed the final color I needed.
"Oh?" I asked before heading up to the counter. I caught sights of a very big, burly man in an odd coat, too warm for it really, and a hat that seemed to cover his appearance. Odd.
"Well, I know how you like Harry Potter, so I managed to get these in." He said as he showed me different paint brushes in different styled wands from the book series. My eyes lit up at the sight of them.
"Wow!" I awed as I picked one up and examined it.
"They weren't easy to come by, but I knew you'd appreciate them." He said with a smile.
"How much? Is there a limit on how many to buy?" I asked him, some what quickly, as I became eager.
"$60 a set. I'm selling one per customer, but I'll sell you two." He tells me. I opened my wallet and was happy I forgot to take out my last pay.
"That would be amazing!" I say happily and paid him for everything.
"Let me guess, one to use and one to save as a collectors item?" He asked me.
"You know it." I say happily as I took the bag.
"Either way, I'm glad to get them for my best customer." He says with a smile.
"You're the only art shop in town, of course I'm going to come here to get the good art supplies." I say with a smile.
"Anything new you're working on?" He asked me.
"Meh, just a space themed painting with a twist. My teacher wants me to explore and do a type of collage." I say to him.
"Oh? Well, I bet it'll be lovely either way. You're very talented." He commented.
"Not really." I say with a shrug.
"Well, If you bring all your work down here, I'm sure I'd buy at least one to add to my shop." He said as he gestured around to many types of art.
"Mine won't be that good." I commented.
"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. As long as you're proud of it, then it doesn't matter what others think." He comments.
"I suppose. Well, I'll see you next time." I say as I held the bag close to me.
"See you next week." He says and waves goodbye, as I do the same, while I walk out. Yeah, I go in every week or two to but paint or something. I hurry too see if Jughead was at Pop's, so we could eat together, but he was already gone. I chuckled when I saw the bricks, since he told me his plan and I thought it was adorable, so I decided to get a few burgers to go and hurried home. Once home, I sat there, munching on a burger, while thinking of what to put in the center.
*What am I going to do?* I thought to myself. I jumped, loosing my burger in the process, before grumbling and answering it.
"Andrews' residence, Aria speaking." I say over the phone.
"It's Archie, did you see anything?" He asked me over the phone.
"Two people looking extremely suspicious in Hawaiian shirts and a big burly man in a trench coat and hat that hid his features." I told him bluntly.
"The two are the agents, X and Y, but the guy in the coat seems off. You sure?" He asked me.
"Yes Arch, I'm sure." I say and looked at my art. I frowned as my burger and flung onto my artwork, getting ketchup and mustard all over it.
"Ok. Meet at Pop's later?" He asked me. I then had my inspiration.
"Yeah, sure, gotta go." I say and hung up. I cleaned up the mess and began painting. I finished it after a few hours and hurried to put it in my car before driving off to Pop Tate's. I went in all happy but then frowned when I saw a group. The group consisted of X and Y, Archie, and Dilton across the room and Jughead at a booth with an alien, that looked like a dog, eating burgers. I went right over to Archie and Dilton, just as the agents went to attack the alien.
"Um… I'm guessing something bad is happening?" I asked just as the agents went right past us and onto another booth.
"Aliens are gonna destroy earth if we don't stop him." Archie suddenly said to me.
"Wow. I'm not fully involved in a mystery and the planet is doomed. Why do I bother leaving you alone?" I asked Archie suddenly.
"Hey!" Archie pouted out with hands on his hips.
"Aria! I saved you one!" Jughead suddenly called out to me. I sighed but went right over, cautiously of course.
"Who is this human?" The alien asked.
"My girlfriend, and the love of my life who understands me so well." Jughead pointed out. I blushed at his words.
"Really?~ I'm surprised she managed to catch an interesting specimen like yourself." The alien said in a muse of sorts.
"Um… Thank you?" I questioned, feeling like I should be offended. Jughead then pulled me into his lap, making me squeak, before kissing my cheek and showing me a burger.
"Actually, other than one other girl, she's the only one who caught my attention in any way. I'm the lucky one." Jughead pointed out to him.
"So, what would it take to talk you out of destroying our planet?" I questioned the alien.
"Nothing, really." He commented as he ate another burger.
"Oh. Well, I'm guessing our literature, arts and music mean trash to you?" I asked him before scarfing my burger down.
"Exactly." The alien commented.
"Ok, is there any way you could consider giving us a chance to change our ways?" I asked curiously.
"Not much." He said before looking out the window.
"Well, here's my ride." The alien said as he stood up.
"Thanks for the 'hamburgers', Jughead." He said as he stood up.
"Always glad to participate in the bun and beef whip." Jughead said with a smile.
"I guess I should also thank you for postponing long enough for me to be with Jughead a bit longer." I said before giving a small smile.
"Yeah, thanks for that too." Jughead added as he held me tighter.
"Well, thank you two, especially you Jughead, for not holding the destruction of your planet against me." He commented.
"You know me, I have sort of a 'take life as it comes to you' philosophy." Jughead said with a smile.
"A good one he's been teaching me as well." I added as I dared not move, wanting my final moments to be in Jughead's arms.
"Refreshing. If there were more unusual people like you on this planet, then we wouldn't have to be annihilated." He commented to Jughead.
"Well, I'm guessing having a high possibility at reproducing won't help the situation. Oh, Aria, could I see your newest work before things get destroyed?" Jughead commented then asked me. My face went red from Jughead's comment, but I decided to show it off. It was runny, because of the mess earlier, but blended well and the inspiration for the center were atoms, but in the center were Pop Tate's hamburgers.
"Yum! Art I can relate with. Best burgers in the galaxy." Jughead commented happily.
"Hmm. It's better than most I've seen on this planet…" The alien commented.
"Well, since earth will be destroyed, wanna keep it? As a memento of what earth 'Should've' produced?" I questioned him.
"Really? No bribes to save the planet?" He questioned.
"No point, as you said." I said with a shrug. He then took the picture.
"Thank you, too bad your planet couldn't even make better art not to mention tell a good joke." He commented.
"Um, I know a good joke." Jughead commented.
"No, Jughead. Not now. We're about to be destroyed in seconds and no one wants to hear it." Archie commented.
"I'll hear it. I might not understand it, but if it makes Jughead laugh, then its good enough for me." I say with a shrug and a smile. The alien then shoved Archie away before gesturing Jughead to continue.
"Ahem. How many pancakes can you fit into a doghouse, if your mother's a washing machine, and your father's a dryer?" Jughead asked. I tilted my head curiously.
"We're doomed." Archie whined out while holding his hands on each side of his head, on his knees, looking up at the ceiling. The alien tilted his head in thought but showed he wanted the answer.
"None. Doghouses can't fly!" Jughead said happily. My head hurt from that, even if he used different words as codes for others, but gave a small chuckle after to make him happy. The alien looked at him, then around the room at no one laughing, before he broke into a smile and laughed so hard, he fell on the floor.
"That has to be the funniest joke I've heard in over 12 gunkflacks!" The alien commented before calming down and taking a breather.
"You think that's funny?" Archie questioned, now on his feet, while using one finger to scratch the top of his head. The alien was now sitting on the floor with something now in his hand as he put it up to his ear.
"Commander Ceres here. Call off the destruction." He said before standing up and putting the communicator away in a pocket of his belt before looking at everyone.
"Your culture might not be ready to join the galactic empire, but if it can produce an original comic genius like Jughead, and a decent artist and suitable learning mate like Aria, then there may be hope for it in another 100,000 years." Commander Cares said, gesturing to me and Jughead, causing me to turn red at being called a mate, before grabbing the picture and heading outside. Jughead and I got up and all of us followed the commander outside to the other ships, Jughead not once letting me out of his arms.
"I don't believe it. Your joke saved the planet earth." Archie commented on the way out.
"What can I say, Arch? The universe is a mysterious place." Jughead said, smile never fading from his face, as we watched the alien jump up and down over and over until he was levitated into a ship. Dilton was in awe over the anti-gravitation beam, muttering about how amazing it was, while we all just watched the ships fly away. X and Y came over and I decided to slip out of Jughead's arms to talk to Archie to get the story, while they talked to Jughead.
"So… How did this happen?" I asked curiously. Archie explained everything to me in a short sum and I only laughed.
"Figures agents would think Jughead's an alien." I chuckled out as I looked and saw Jughead jumping about, like the commander did, at the already gone ships. The agents left and Archie went to take Dilton home, Pops went back inside, leaving only Jughead and myself. I then went over and kissed Jughead's cheek. "My hero." I said with a smile.
"I was just myself, though." Jughead told me with a smile.
"Yes, and never change." I told him truthfully. He pulled me close to him and kissed me passionately, I kissing him back, before he pulled back and smiled.
"There's a movie marathon on tonight. Wanna watch it?" He asked me.
"We have school, though." I commented.
"So?" Jughead said with a shrug. I blinked but smiled.
"Sure. Dad's out on a business trip with Uncle Fred, so we'll have the place to ourself." I said with a bright smile. Jughead smiled at my comment.
"Cool. Plus, you can work on another picture since that was your project you gave away." Jughead added. I frowned, followed by a groan and a whine, before chuckling.
"Guess so." I say after. I pull my keys out and we headed to my car. I drove us to my place and I made a quick dinner for us, Jughead called his mom and said he was at Archie's again, as I put the plates on the small coffee table, got drinks, the set up my art stuff. Jughead then turned the TV on and we watched and ate as I painted. I hated messing up and, thank goodness I had old clothes on, ended up with paint on me. Jughead chuckled as he came over and saw the base I did.
"Looks good so far." Jughead commented.
"Thanks." I say to him. He then put his finger in some paint before booping my nose. I gasped and looked right at him, his smile being playful and joyful, before I put my hand in some paint and patted his cheek. He gasped as I gave him the same smile.
"Oh yeah?" He questioned before grabbing a tube.
"Jughead? Jughead, wait. Not near the painting!" I said fearfully before he squeezed the tube all on me. I gasped and fell backwards into my art. He laughed a bit before I squeezed a glob of paint into my hand and threw it on him. We both smirked until he mounted on me and started painting me.
"Look, I'm making art." Jughead joked as I laughed.
"Jughead! That tickles!" I laughed out as I began painting him as well. We laughed some more until he leaned down to my face.
"Never change. No matter what, even covered in paint, you're perfect to me." Jughead suddenly whispered to me. I blushed but smiled at his words.
"I love you Aria Andrews." Jughead added softly. My heart felt like it would explode. I then wrapped my arms around his neck, never breaking eye contact, as I felt light as a feather.
"I love you too, Forsythe Jughead Jones. I truly do." I say back to him. That seemed to make him happy because we ended up kissing passionately after this, along with some mild groping and grinding. After feeling like the planet would be destroyed, after feeling bliss knowing I'd die in Jughead's arms, I never wanted to leave him. I did, truly, love him. More than words could say. After a bit we both got up.
"Oh no, your picture." Jughead commented. We both looked at the now collage of colors, fabric patterns and more. I shrugged with a smile.
"The art of love. I'll hand it in as is, I don't care. Right now, I only want to be closer to you." I say before looking back at him. He kissed me again and I kissed him back right away, heat rising in our bodies, tongues fighting for dominance, hands groping anything they could. I pulled back a bit, smile never fading, as he looked a bit confused.
"How about we clean up? Maybe… Share a shower?" I asked him curiously. Jughead blinked in confusion, followed by the realization in his slightly wide eyes, then a blush but ending with a slightly, I suppose lustful, smirk.
"I wouldn't object to that." He said in a low, attractive tone that sent a shiver of delight down my spine. I wasted no time in guiding him to the shower.
WARNING! ADULT MOMENT!
I had 2 towels, turned on the shower, then started stripping. I looked at him, now that my top was off, to see he was rushing, already down to his boxers and hopping on one foot trying to get his sock off. The sight was cute. It seemed we both had the same thought. Waste no time, this felt right, we belonged together. Even, if by some very slim chance, this wasn't true, I knew I'd never regret this. I was now in my panties before testing the water. Just right. I then felt Jughead wrap his arms around me, body against mine, as I felt everything which caused me to blush.
"Doesn't seem fair that you're not undressed yet." He whispered in my ear as I felt him tug my panties. I blushed, letting a very soft moan like sound escape my mouth, while feeling his throbbing member get hard.
"What are you going to do about it?" I asked playfully with a smirk.
Bad idea.
I felt his hand slip in my panties and start rubbing my gem full force. I arched my back, flung my head back and let out a loud cry/moan as I felt my legs start to shake.
"Well, you asked." He whispered huskily in my ear. This was a side of Jughead no one knew about, I'm not even sure if he knew about it at all before we dated. But I knew about this side now and he knew it too.
"I like this side of you." I moan out before letting out a cry from the orgasm I had. Jughead smirked proudly as he stopped rubbing me.
"Now they're dirty." He said before slipping them off me.
"See what you made me do?" I asked with a sexy smirk while turning my head a little bit to look at him.
"Yeah, and?" He asked as he gave me that same smirk.
"Well, it doesn't seem fair to me." I say before turning around to him.
"Oh yeah?" He asked me seductively. I guided him in the shower, semi hot water hitting our already hot flesh, steam building up, as I never took my eyes off him.
"Seems I should even the odds." I say as I let his hands go and rubbed his chest.
"Oh? How so?" He asked me curiously. I leaned in a bit and kissed his lips gently before I was on my knees. Water drenched my head, rinsing paint out of my hair, as I gently started to massage his member. Jughead moaned softly but then yelped in surprise when I licked the head. I giggled at that and did it again and again. He shivered and moaned as I went from licking just the head to replacing my hands with my tongue all over. He shivered and moaned more as I licked every inch.
*He's so big. I wonder if I can.* I thought, stopping for a few seconds to admire the almost 7 inches in front of me, before slipping him in my mouth and bob my head a bit to get used to him. Yes, I knew what blowjobs were because I had heard about them and heard what you do. Jughead gasped, hands immediately clinging to my hair, as I looked up and saw he head was leaned back.
"Oh Aria."He moaned out. I smirked and kept going a nice, slow pace, using my tongue as well, before going deeper and deeper. I was surprise my gag reflex wasn't affecting me as I began swallowing down a small bit of him. Jughead gripped harder before he, most likely instinctively, pushed himself down my throat. My eyes widened as I tried to breath, letting out mild muffles and groans that caused vibration to him, until I adjusted my head enough to breathe through my nose.
"Oh man!" Jughead moaned out in bliss as I caught my breath. His grip loosened and I started the motion again, this time holding his hips with my hands for both support and to prevent him from doing that again. His moans were loud as his fingers trembled. I smirked and sped up, making him start to shake, until I felt him release in my mouth, mostly down my throat, as his grip tightened to hold me there while he groaned in delight over this. I swallowed down his cream, happy about the yummy taste, and sucked clean until he let me go and pulled out of my mouth. I gasped and was very happy about that.
"You tasted delicious." I say to him.
"Aria, I… I want you to make me hard again." He suddenly said to me. I looked up, water getting in my eyes, as I saw his look of hunger, a different kind of hunger than his usual one though. I smiled.
"I want that too." I said with no arguments. He got close to me and I used my hands and tongue to start getting him hard. Once he was half way hard, I put him between my boobs, squeezed them together, and started moving to have him thrust between them as I licked the head again. He moaned out my name, not taking him long to get hard again, as he held my shoulders and made the thrusting motions himself. I moaned as well as my mind was drawn blank to all of the pleasure I felt. It took a bit longer than before, but eventually he let out a small cry as his seeds exploded out of him and all over my face and boobs, between and above, while a small bit landed in my mouth.
"Sorry." Jughead groaned out. I pulled away and began licking the cum off my breasts. He watched before he yanked me up. I yelped, feeling my hot back hit the cool tile wall, before he kissed my hungrily. I kissed him back with as much passion as I felt him get hard again and poke my thigh. He stopped kissing my and began licking down from my neck to my breasts, licking the already rinsed boobs all around until he got to the nipples, licked each one twice, making me gasp and shiver, until he licked his way down more and more. Down to my stomach, then my hips, then stopped at the top of my womanhood. I blushed as I felt him spread my legs a small bit.
"Jughead." I softly moaned out then shivered as he used his fingers to open the lips for a better look.
"So, this is what one looks like." Jughead mused as I felt his hot breath hit the moist warm area. I shivered again from the delight of him being there.
"It looks beautiful." I heard Jughead whisper before he licked my gem. I softly cried out from this and, I guess he liked that because he did it again and got the same reaction. He licked that spot more and more until he saw my orgasm. He smirked and kissed my gem, making me whimper in delight, until he made out with it while slipping a finger deep inside my entrance. I cried out and shook as my legs felt like jell-o. This didn't stop him though, oh no. Instead, he kept going, adding more fingers until he had 4 in there, making my cringe a bit but relax and eventually moan louder and louder from each fast, hard, shaky thrust he gave while never stopping licking, kissing, nipping and sicking my very sensitive gem. I already had 3 orgasms on his fingers and cried out as I released again. My legs gave out as he pulled his fingers out. I thought h was done, but how wrong I was. He put my legs over his shoulders, easy since I was light to him and he was on his knees, and replaced his fingers with his tongue. I cried out his name in surprise as he began his womanhood feast. I gripped his hair, like he did with me, his hand gripped tightly on my hips, like I did with him, as I cried out loud with a red face that mixed between my mouth forming an O and a smile. Jughead then stood up, never stopping this, as I was now higher up the wall and crying out in ecstasy before releasing my juices all over, and in, his then slipped me down, making me yelp again, as I was now at his exact level, legs up on each side of us my knees were hooked over his elbows and hands resting on my butt. We're both panting, blushing and smiling as we gazed at each other.
"Aria." He whispered out as we looked at each other. No other words came out as he asked the silent question. I gently grabbed his erect member, guiding the head to my entrance and nodding at him, eyes never parting for even a second.
"Jughead." I whispered his name, as a blessing of permission, before he nods. He pushed forward and I gasped as his head entered my womanhood. A place never ventured before except by his, and sometime my own, fingers along with his tongue. I released him member and relaxed myself before nodding again to continue. He took a step closer, our bodies close to touching, before giving a small whimper than a small cry of pain as he entered me quickly until his body smashed up against me completely. My arms were around Jughead's neck, nails unintentionally digging into his back, as he groaned in pain, his hands gripping each butt cheek tightly. I had felt my hymen break, felt the blood spill on him, knew it was dripping down his balls and onto the tub floor below us as my eyes watered. Jughead had shook a bit after entering and I felt his breath become shaky like mine as a tear slipped down my cheek.
Then, after a few more seconds, he began pulling out, causing my grip to tighten more, until he was almost all the way out before pushing back inside me. I gasped as he pushed in against my inner barrier before he did it again, causing the same reaction, then again and again while being slow and gentle. I soon felt less and less pain and my whimpers died down more and more while moans increased. He would pick up the pace as each moan got louder until I felt no more pain and he was moving a semi-fast pace. Out, in, out, in, each time hitting my upper barrier.
"J-J-Jughead! H-Harder!" I cried out as I had an orgasm that caused all the pain to go away. He nipped my neck and began leaving a hickey as he obeyed my wishes. I moaned loudly as I tilted my head back in pleasure. I cried louder when he was pulling out only half way but went top speed, hitting my barrier and g-spot more and more at full force. My eyes were now watery with pleasure as I had orgasm after orgasm.
"I'm close, Aria!" Jughead moaned in my ear as I felt his erection throbbing.
"I am too! I want it! I want it!" I cried out loud in delight, each thrust making me lose my senses, breasts bouncing as his erection easily glided in and out of me.
"You got it, baby girl." Jughead said as he pushed even deeper in me. I cried out more, walls clenching tightly around him, as I got closer and closer. He fit perfectly inside me, like a glove that I never wanted to remove. I then screamed out his name as I climaxed all over him. He soon slowed down, still thrusting hard and deep, while shaking until he cried out my name. I then felt hot liquid inside me and cried out again as he slammed fully inside me and released the rest deeper inside me while shaking and groaning. We shook and stayed still as he released everything in me. We then looked at each other, panting with red cheeks, before we kissed each other passionately. We kissed for what felt like eons until we pulled away. I whimpered out a moan as he gently slipped his, now soft, member out of me then gently slid the both of us to the floor of the tub to rest, him laying in the tub like you would when taking a bath, while having me pulled up against him to rest and let the water, now cold, hit us to cool us down.
"Was that paint or blood?" Jughead suddenly asked me once we weren't panting.
"Blood." I said softly to him.
"Oh. Then, you were..." Jughead started asking but didn't know how to ask it.
"Yes, I was a virgin Jughead." I said as I rested happily against his chest.
"I didn't mean to hurt you." He suddenly said to me. I guess he remembered the sex ed course and about the woman parts.
"It's ok. It wasn't intentional. Besides, it felt amazing after." I said as I looked up at him with a smile. He looked down at me and smiled back.
"Good, cause I enjoyed it too." He said happily to me. I leaned up and kissed him and he kissed me back.
"I love you Jughead." I say with content in my voice as I rested my head on his chest again.
"I love you too Aria, more than words could ever tell." He said, same tone as me, as his arms were wrapped protectively around me, as if to shelter me from the world, our chakra in sync as we felt one, whole, completed. Something neither of us had every felt before until now.
ADULT PART OVER!
*One week later, Aria's POV*
I was now at Archie's house, after I finished my shift at work, and was sitting in a chair next to Arch in his room as we were finishing up the article. We didn't do it sooner because he had already published a story and was slightly stumped on a title of the story along with wanting to work on the ending together.
"So, even though there will be no parades or medals, or any public recognition that he saved earth, it doesn't seem to matter to Jughead. I guess that's another reason why he's different from the rest of us. ~Archie. That's my Jughead for you. Such an amazing guy. ~Aria. As for Agent's X and Y, we never heard from them again. ~Archie. But today, Pop Tate received a government check matching the exact amount of Jughead's weekly tab. I know think this will happen every Saturday as a thank you to Jughead. ~Aria. Coincidence? I wouldn't count on it… ~Archie. Not in a little town called Riverdale. ~Archie and Aria!"
We were content with everything before I looked at the time.
"I should get home." I say before getting up.
"Why? It's Saturday." Archie told me.
"I know, I have a date with Jughead." I say with a smile.
"Again?" Archie asked me.
"Yes again, and don't you have a date with Betty?" I asked him. He went wide eyed before jumping up.
"Yes I do, In 10 minutes!" He cried out in a panic. I laughed as I started walking out.
"Bye Arch." I say as I exit his room. I went down the stairs and out the door to my car. I started the car as I smiled.
"Glad I planned ahead." I said as I patted the glove box gently. Jughead and I didn't have sex again after the first time, mainly because we realized we never used protection and didn't want to risk it, so I had gone out and bought some in secret just in case we did it again. You never know. I drove off to pick up Jughead for our date as I thought about everything. It wasn't really sex to us, it was making love for the first time. We were in love, real love, and that was enough for us. To think, besides the world almost ending, we never would've done that if not for that paint fight.
Haha.
I did hand in the project and got a C on it. I was content with that. Also, this whole experience got me to realize I didn't need to stress about college. The time will come soon when I know what to do with my life, what I'm meant for, and I will reach that goal in due time. For now, I'll enjoy what I have. I pulled up and Jughead immediately hopped in before giving me a passionate kiss.
"Ready to go, milady?" He asked me happily as he buckled up.
"You know it, hero." I say with a smile that matched his usual one, before driving off to have our romantic date.
SORRY ARIA WASN'T PART OF THE MYSTERY MUCH! I JUST DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH HER IN THIS ONE! I HOPEFULLY MADE UP FOR IT BY ADDING MORE TO VINNIE'S BACK STORY!
