Jughead's pov
Archie Andrews, my best friend since fourth grade has been a total anti- Archie this whole week. I dont watch him all day but I can say when he's upset.
I think I know I reason. That day when he visited the blue and gold which is completely weird he tried to make a uncomfortable conversation with me.
I definitely know he didn't came to see me. So who else will be at our old, not-so-interested school newspaper office.Hmm..yeah, that would be the new girl next door neighbour of our Archie, betty Cooper. He asked me if I liked her. I was shocked I could have shouted at him but he have this dreamy and hurting expression.
I do like betty. We have became really good friends. We have so many things in common. She's smart, good looking and so many things but I don't like her the way Archie likes her. Yes! It's obvious to me that he likes her.. Very much! One thing I didn't understand is why does he have to be so upset about liking her. At Cheryl's party when betty left making an excuse just at the time when she had to kiss Archie is more bemusing. She kissed me. Tbh, she's my first kiss. I was bewildered. The look on Archie's face last night after she rejected him is still running in mind.
So, here I am standing infront of Archie's home door. It's early but I have to make sure he was okay. I wish.*knock knock* "Hi Mr. Andrews, Is Archie home?" He nodded and pointed his finger towards stairs.
"Hii dear" Said Marie Andrews. "Hii, Mrs. Andrews, you look lovely" I headed towards Archie's bedroom.
"Archie!" "Come in" He said with a weak voice. Well, he's clearly not okay.
"Hey" I said. "Hey" He said not looking up. He's room messy. It is always but this time a little more.
"You're up early. You haven't forgotten that it's a weekend right?" I smiled.
"I tried to sleep but it seems like I'm bad at that too" He frowned.
A gasp escaped from my mouth. "Arch, don't tell me you haven't been sleeping" I stepped close.
He didnt answer. "Archie, what's wrong with you?" I asked. No answer again.
What the hell is wrong with him!? "Archie Enough! stop being this desperate person that is so unlike you. What is this all for? a girl!?" I stressed that word.
His eyes shot up to me and again relaxed " girl?" He asked calmly.
"Oh don't play dumb Arch. Even though you think no one noticed I did." I rolled my eyes.
"Jug don't start this. Not to be rude but I'm not in the mood to talk. You should leave." He said.
I'm loosing it. " You're not in the mood to talk? So what do you want to do? Stare at your next door girl's window all day? Or moaning and rolling on your bed thinking about her? Could you be anymore pathetic Arch?"
He's taken aback. He finally got up from the bed.
"What you jealous juggie? Dont be. I don't like her. She's all yours. So you came here this early to fight with me for her. I won't come in between you two. Have fun" He said.
Im not angry at his words but felt pity. "Arch, I told you I don't have any feelings for betts- betty" I quickly corrected.
He scoffed.
"Besides I know you like her-" I was cut off.
"I don't like her!!" He shouted.
"No matter how many times you resist it that's the truth. I know you Arch. Why do you lie to me?" My eyes filled with hurt.
He noticed it. "Because your her friend" He muttered.
"So what? I am your best friend. You mean so much more than her to me."
