*not my gif*
Your phone vibrates on the bedside table next to you, waking you up from your peaceful and restful slumber. Your head started to reel from what happened and the headache from all of the shots of whiskey you took from last night finally caught up to you.
The feeling of Betty’s arms wrapped around you making you feel a feeling of comfort and safety. Her bare chest pressed up against your back as you felt her hot breath on your neck. You sigh in contentment and you feel your eyes slowly start to get heavy once again. Until your phone vibrates once again.
“Hello?” you whisper not wanting to wake up Betty.
“Y/N Y/L/N! Where are you young lady? The Wallace’s are coming over lunch and you need to look in tip top shape for Brett. We have a big deal with their family you know this!” Your mom yells at you over the phone and you look at the time.
12:40 PM
Oh shit! “Yes I’m coming Mom. I’ll be right there! I’m sorry Betty and I got caught up in homework, once we were finished it was too late and I crashed at her house. I’m sorry again.” I whisper.
“You better be home in 10 minutes or you will be hearing from your father!” you nod even though she can’t see you and then she hung up. You groaned softly annoyed with your mother and disappointed that you have to leave this heaven on Earth of being in Betty’s arms.
Luckily for you Betty rolled and her body was facing the other side so you could slip out easily. As much as you didn’t want to, you had to. You put on your clothes from last night and just smiled at her sleeping figure. Before leaving the room you gave her a small little kiss on her head and brush the hair away from her face. She smiled softly and you thought for a second her eyes would open but they didn’t.
You left and embarked on your cool walk home. It’s not even your own home, you live in an apartment away from the house. You convinced your parents to let you stay there since the house is for “dinner and business meetings”. It’ll allow them to keep the house in picture perfect shape and it’ll allow you to not be around them as often. It’s not like they’re around enough anyway.
You enter your “home” before heading straight your room to change, but your mom stopped you on the way up, “Thank you for joining us. Now hurry and get ready the Wallace’s will be here soon.”
“Yes Mom.” you respond solemnly.
You get changed into your formal clothes and come down just in time for lunch. The Wallace’s door belled and you finally answered the door. The one and only Brett Weston Wallace was leaning against the doorframe, his snobbish parents not too far behind.
“Y/N, always a pleasure to see you.” he smiles at you and you cringe ever so lightly, but he doesn’t notice.
The Wallace’s or well the Weston Wallace’s if you want to be super formal. My parents and his parents are great business partners and “friends”. They call themselves friends, but all they ever talk about is business or you and their son Brett dating. It wasn’t your choice. Your heart has been set on Betty for as long as you can remember. It’s something to keep their business deals alive because without this, their whole deal could fall apart.
Brett attends Stonewall Prep, a prestigious boarding school, and just because he goes to this fancy place he believes he’s better than everyone. Yet he still has feelings for you, why? Because it’s just your luck. And if you break up with him, there goes your parents’ deals and they’ll lose a value partner.
Brett kisses you lightly and all you can think about is Betty. You got to kiss Elizabeth Cooper last night. It felt safe and comforting, all it felt like was coming home from a long trip and finally getting to sleep in your own bed. While Brett feels wrong and disgusting. Something you don’t ever want to feel again.
Betty’s POV
I turn in my sleep and try to reach out for Y/N, but she wasn’t there. She was gone. All I felt was a cold bed. I sat up quickly and looked around for any note or explanation on why she left me alone, but there was nothing.
Was that all I was to her? Just a simple one nightstand? That can’t be. Not after what Kevin told me. Kevin told me that she really liked me and has since kindergarten that just couldn’t go away. That couldn’t have been a lie, right?
I attempted to call her and text her, but I just ended up with straight to voicemail or no response. Maybe she’s busy right now. That has to be it, right? I got my hopes up for this girl. I really really like her and now she just pulled the rug from underneath me.
I went back to my house and the hours went by. Still nothing from her. Maybe she’s doesn’t like me like that. Maybe this was just a one night stand, but I decided to call her anyway because that’s how pathetic I am.
“Hey Y/N, i just wanted to check up on you and make sure I didn’t ruin our friendship or anything by what happened yesterday. Please give me a call back so we can just talk about this please.” I say after the ding for voicemail.
Another hour went by and still nothing. So I decided to do the only logical thing and call Kevin.
“Kevin! You won’t believe what happened!” I yell into the phone when he picks up.
“What?” he asks getting excited.
“So Y/N and I may or may not have hooked up yesterday after Veronica’s party-” I start to say before Kevin cuts me off.
“Didn’t I tell you that?! What did I tell you?! She likes you!! She really likes you!! I told you so!” Kevin yells and I can tell they’re he’s doing a happy dance.
“Before you get too excited Kevin, she’s now not responding to my text and left without a note and now I’m confused!” I yell out in frustration.
“Well easy Betty, just go to her house and talk to her. I’m sure there has to be a reasonable explanation for this. Trust me the way she talked about you Betty. She got the brightest smile ever when she would. Her whole face would light up.” he responded.
“Okay! Okay! I will!” Betty responded before hanging up.
Your POV
The time with the Wallace’s was really thrilling. You were sitting here playing charades. Couples against couples. Great. Just a great time. When there was a knock at the door.
You took this as an opportunity to escape this horrible nightmare, “I got it!” you yell taking everybody by surprise.
“Do you want me to come with you sweetheart?” Brett asks getting prepared to stand up.
“No!” you answer a little too quickly and loudly, “It’s okay. You just stay and relax I’ll be right back.” you kiss his cheek tensely before walking to the doors.
You opened the door and saw Betty pacing back and forth on your porch. Your eyes widened quickly before you closed the door behind you softly. Her head snaps towards you.
“Hi.” Betty says nervously and you smile at her nervousness.
“Hey.” you respond still smiling and she smiles back finally relaxing, “What are you doing here?”
“I wanted to talk to you about last night because I really like you Y/N. I don’t want this to be a one time thing. I want there to actually be an us Y/N. I’ve liked you for as long as I can remember.” she grabs your cheek in her hand and caresses it lightly with the pad of her thumb, “But if you don’t feel the same way I don’t want to ruin our friendship.”
“I like you too Betty. I’ve liked you since kindergarten and trust me being with you last night has been a dream. A dream that finally came true.” you whisper softly and she started to lean in when the door swung open.
“Hey Babe!” Brett says and you pull away from Betty quickly. Luckily he was looking down at the old fashioned your dad made him, “Who’s here?” he finally looks up and sees Betty.
“Uh oh this is Betty Cooper, my friend. Betty this is Brett Weston Wallace, my boyfriend...” you mumble the last part, but Betty hears it. She hears everything that you say because that’s all she can focus on. You.
“Boyfriend?” Betty whispers staring at you in agape.
