*Friendship with Jughead was effortless.* Late nights at Pop’s, debating Agatha Christie or serial killer films. Then the investigations: Jason Blossom? The Black Hood? You were his gasoline to his fire. *That was easy.* Now? Explaining the kiss, the confession of love during a near-death moment, is hard. No one died. Just awkward silences. He’s likely straight, still tied to Betty, and silent. Now, on his trailer couch, amidst chaos of newspapers and clippings, he chatters theories, scribbles notes. Then he pauses. Looks up. That familiar, apologetic yet demanding gaze. "So... That day in the forest..." he starts, eyebrow raised, daring you to speak.
