Merry (late) Christmas to all - but especially to @stonerbughead to whom this fic is gifted! I really hope you like this, I think I ticked enough of your boxes! :D Writing this was a LOT of fun and very different to what I’d normally write, so I quite enjoyed creating it!!!
Thankyou @bugheadsecretsanta for running this event! (Please excuse my dodgy collage skills hahahah)
Read “Snowed In With A Stranger” here!
Two complete strangers meet in a run-down diner one snowy Christmas Eve. But their chance meeting may reveal that the two are more connected than they could have ever imagined…
Should Betty and Jughead take fate into their own hands, let go of their haunted pasts, and explore this newfound spark of romance?
(Spoiler alert: yes! This is a Bughead Christmas fic after all 😉)
Shout out to @heytherejulietx and @bugheadsfangirl who helped me find that diner pic!
I was your Secret Santa! I wanted to do a full rockerbilly moment but I will have to save that for the new year when I have more time! But here's what I came up with! After you mentioned wiggle dresses I instantly knew Betty needed one (it's kinda my obsession atm)
But Merry Christmas! Happy holidays whatever y'all celebrate I hope you enjoy today (or I guess tomorrow in the states)
Hey there, Secret Santa again! This time I'm here to ask what your most favourite Christmas tradition is?
Oooh I love Christmas traditions, but my fave one is on Christmas Eve we always go out to see the Christmas lights. Usually we have a Google map to make sure we hit all the best houses, and cause it's usually like a sauna outside (yay Australia) we always stop for a Slurpee. We have done this nearly every year and look forward to it every year. 🎅🎅
in the quiet of winter; betty brings out a cute pink sweater jug gave to her, warm hot chocolates and she loves to curl up in bead with her favourite books
17 days till Christmas !!! And your secret Santa is getting excited. I’m curious are you too ? What do you love most about Christmas time 🎄❤️
The countdown is on huh? The thing I love about Christmas is just the feel of the holiday. The feel of family, the lights, food, the music. It is just a wonderful time of year.
whatever we were tangled in, all of it was music → Jughead Jones x Betty Cooper ‘Baby Driver’ AU.
Jughead Jones, a reluctant criminal and the best getaway driver in the business, after being coerced into working for a crime boss, must face the music when a doomed heist threatens his life, love, and freedom.
“Now, I get absolutely no pleasure in taking hard-earned spoils from a stand-up young man such as yourself, but one must do as one must.”
Jughead nodded, taking the proffered slim stack of cash handed to him out of the hundreds that comprised what had been once his share of the money. Fred’s words rang in his ears — You don’t belong in that world — when he spoke: “One more job, and I’m done.”
“One more job, and we are straight,” corrected Hiram with a pleasant smile and cold eyes. “Now, I must go, but remember—”
“You call, I answer. I know.”

It was a memory that had impelled him to leave the apartment and walk the city streets aimlessly until he found his way into a corner booth of a quaint, quiet diner with its old-fangled furbishing, obsolescent jukebox, and straight-out-of-the-sixties aesthetic, but it was The Girl that had inspired him to stay.
Jughead noticed the girl who would soon become The Girl first by looking outside the window next to which he sat and noticing glimpses of her sharp silhouette through the tilted venetian blinds. He watched, transfixed, as she walked in, cheerful and smiling, a crisp autumn wind at her back and a skip in her step, like she was goddamn Audrey Hepburn on the set of Funny Face, his headphones blasting The Tremeloes’s blithe here she comes now, walking with a love, with a love that’s oh so fine into his eardrums and searing the moment into his memory.
“Hi,” a perky voice chirped above him, pulling Jughead out of his reverie and making him realise that he must have been staring into the distance for some time because she was right here before him, bouncy, blonde ponytail, beatific smile, and all. “What can I get you?”
Merry Christmas, @jemmablossom! This is your @bugheadsecretsanta gift. 🎁 Happy Holiday Season, sweetie!
