During an assembly Cheryl had announced, you searched round the room for any familiar faces. You were next to a large boy and a giggly girl, and even though you had no interest in Cheryl, it was quite annoying and distracting. While you were looking your eyes landed on Jughead as he sat with his laptop typing away.

"Jug" you caught up to him afterwards.

"What?" He turned around.

"How are you? I saw you in the assembly"

"I'm okay. Just, getting on with life"

"What were you writing?"

"Nothing, just an English assignment" he lied and quickly left you.
