Three days later, the teens were allowed to head home. After the second group of teens arrived, there weren't any more explosions. The scientist was still trying to figure out what caused the exploding in the first place. They were set to start back school in early January./p

Betty was sitting on her bed, waiting for Jughead to arrive. She hadn't told him about the kids not being his, but she was planning on telling him tonight. Her parents were working late, so they had the place to themselves.

She saw Jughead arrive on his motorcycle. It was her first time seeing him on it, and, she won't lie, she found it extremely hot. She ran downstairs in time to open the door for him. "Hey Jug," Betty said.

"Hi," Jughead said. He then entered the house and they went upstairs to her room. Betty sat on her bed, but Jughead opted to stay standing up. "You wanted to talk to me?"

"I had a talk with Toni," she said. "She said that the triplets are definitely aren't yours, but they look a lot like you. Then it hit me: I think Toni cheated on you with your brother, and she fell pregnant with your nephews."

"Oh, I know that," Jughead said.

"You do?" Betty asked.

"They were the ones actually dating during our freshman year," Jughead confessed. "Her parents hate Peter, so she told them we were dating. I actually became the side boy because we were teenagers with hormones, and Peter was at boarding school. We had a few intense make-out sessions, but we never had sex."

"Why haven't you told everyone?" Betty asked.

"Because I find the rumors amusing," Jughead shrugged.

"Did you really burn down that 711?" Betty asked./p

"No, that was my friend Fangs," Jughead said. "I was just there with a few of our friends. We were coming back from a night of partying, and Fangs got the idea. Before we could stop him, he had already set the building on fire."

Betty nodded as it dawned on her. "So you're still a virgin?" Betty asked.

"No, are you?" Jughead asked. Betty shook her head. That summer the people who run the football and cheer camp decided to have them at the same place. Cheryl threw a party the last night. She brought some drugs and her and Reggie Mantle became... close.

"Do you want to lose it?" Betty asked.

"Sure," Jughead said. He sat down, and she kissed him passionately.
