Summary
In some other godforsaken universe, they could have been roommates in New York or snowed in a damn cabin with only one bed to witness everything they'd have to say to each other. Maybe they would have met in a coffee shop on a rainy day and debate for hours on about their shitty jobs or even better, be co-workers who savagely make out during breaks on a regular basis. Maybe they could have been fake dating or trapped under the mistletoe, so he would’ve had a nice pretext to put his lips on hers.
But his reality was fucked up, and he had to remind himself over and over again not to drown in her like the forlorn castaway he was.

Summary
Hidden in Miami as a waitress under witness protection, Betty is startled to see a familiar face on Table 8 - a face she's not supposed to see.
But the draw of Jughead Jones is too powerful. And her longing will prove to be too much to resist.
Tonight, the risk is worth it. Tonight, she longs to live.
(Inspired by the music video for Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello's "Señorita".)

Summary
Betty can feel her breath high and tight in her chest, pulse thrumming quick in her wrist with a dizzying sort of anticipation. She watches from backstage as the band tunes up their instruments- Fangs and Sweet Pea tossing guitar picks at one another and talking shit, Toni swigging from a bottle of whiskey. There’s something building in the anxious stirring of the audience, like thunder from a distant storm, and Betty has her pencil pressed to her notepad hard enough to leave an indent, ready to scribble frantic notes.
The music starts like the first crack of lightning, like a giant turning in its sleep, and the blistering throb of it knocks the air clean out of Betty’s lungs, shock running through her fingers.

Summary
Most days, Betty Cooper rose before the sun, dressing herself for farm work and getting breakfast ready for her two farm hands, Farmer John and Kevin. ...
This farm life was a dream come true. She reminded herself often that this was what she always wanted, and it was the truth. Only thing was that she never thought she’d be alone doing it. She had always thought she’s have someone by her side.
...
He had not expected Betty Cooper to look the way she did. When he booked this Bed & Breakfast as his writing getaway, he had been told that it was a quiet, out of the way place, with an accommodating owner/hostess who cooked divine spreads, offered great conversation, and made her guests feel right at home.
He had been expecting a more matronly figure, gray haired perhaps, stately, maybe, the way those baby boomer, Hampton-living, ladies carried themselves. She had, after all, been described by his editor as a cross between Martha Stewart, Ina Garten, and Ree Drummond of Pioneer Woman fame. None of those ladies were leggy, in their twenties, smelled like sweet lilacs, and was gorgeous as hell. And none of them had that long blonde hair...
