Spotted: Another chapter where you have to pay attention to the details! Can A and J come to an understanding about J's past? Is Queen V up to take on the political power that her mother wields? Why, dear Daddikins is just waiting in the wings for his cue to enter stage right. And speaking of our Madam Mayor... What is she doing with the Sherriff?
This is my homage to Gossip Girl! There's not much to say about it without giving too much away. So I'll leave you with this dear readers...
“I just loved your spin piece in the paper,” Jughead shot a murderous glare at his feminine brunette counterpart as the four friends sat down to lunch.
Veronica pressed her fingers to her temple, feeling the headache that had been brewing all morning starting to grow in strength. “Can we not, Jughead?”
“You know,” he started, ignoring her words, “it’s one thing to write about the students of our school; but, it’s a completely other thing when you start pulling in people from the town.” He shook his head in disgust. He thought she understood what was going on in his life. He didn’t open up to people readily but he did with her and now he was beginning to think it was a colossal mistake.
Veronica was on the verge of tears. Her mother had manipulated her… again and she fell right into her mother’s trap. She knew what she was writing was wrong but with everything going on with her father she let her mother convince her that putting the spotlight on someone else was the best option. She didn’t know how to own up to her mistake. To admit that she was weak wasn’t in her vocabulary. So, she did what she did best, turn it back onto the other person. “No one cares.”
“I do!” He retorted.
Bisous, Bisous... Rumor.
