“I don’t want to be without you, Juggie”
“It is for the best… when you have reached all the things you want, and I get to be free from all the tours and I get my contract done with the publishing, we’ll be together”
“Because we, Betty Copper, are soul mates”
That’s all Betty was able to feel.
It had been some years since she had set a foot in her hometown; the place where she had grew up, where she had met the most important people in her life. In those year she had been away, she had dedicated to create a name in her career, to the point that in her short age she was well known between the people in the field, unfortunately this took a lot of her time, so she was only able to see her family and friends when they visited her in New York, where she moved to when she graduated from high school.
While she was looking outside the taxi’s window, because Riverdale still didn’t have Uber, Lyft or anything like it, she started to think about the people she was going to see after such a long time: Veronica, Archie, Cheryl, Fangs, Toni, and Sweet Pea… Sighing, she took the small portable mirror that was in her bag, to check her makeup, after all she wanted to look perfect… perfect for him.
With only thinking his name she felt like a 17 year-old all over again, even thought it had been 10 years since she was that age, the feelings remained the same. She took a deep breath, trying to make her heart back to normal, the organ starting to run like crazy when she remembered him.
Her eyes threatened to get filled with tears, putting the little mirror and her lipstick back in her bag. She put her hands on her knees, which were covered with the dress she had picked up for the occasion.
