Summary
On the eve of her political marriage to Prince Archie of Vale, Lady Betty Cooper of the WinterHollow uncovers her family's betrayal — she is a pawn to bind kingdoms, not a bride of love. Defying fate, she flees under moonlight with Jughead Jones, exiled prince of the South and son of a once-bastard line made royal. Their escape ignites scandal across the realm. Branded a traitor and kidnapper, Jughead becomes the target of war as Betty’s brother Charles and her jilted betrothed rally the Crown’s wrath. But what began as a lovers’ flight sparks a rebellion that will burn through thrones and truth alike.
Inspired loosely by the tragic tale of Lyanna Stark and Rhaegar Targaryen and other GOT & HOD plots, this story weaves love, betrayal, legacy, and fire into a saga of defiance against destiny.

Summary
She gets into the car and sighs out of pure exhaustion. She’s cranks the car and is about to drive off when she gets a phone call from her roommmate. “Hey Pearl,” she answers “what’s up?”
“Hi Gem! So hypothetically,” her roommate starts, never a good thing to start a sentence with, “if I accidentally dropped a candle into our carpet and there is now fire in our apartment, what’s the best way to handle this. Hypothetically, of course.”
“Pearl,” Gem says very carefully, “ please tell me you did not just set the apartment on fire.”
“Okay, maybe it was not hypothetical. Can you call 911?” Pearl asks her.
“You haven’t called 911 yet?!” She shouts.
“…No?”
“PEARL!!”

OR
Another murder looms over the town of Riverdale. Keen on closure, Archie insists the others help him investigate, unknowing that answers are far closer than expected.

Summary
Originally a two-shot, also originally titled "Strangers" - Betty and the rest of the gang are introduced later.
AU - Veronica had no idea who this beautiful blonde knight in shining leather was that was hiding out with her in the freezer of a grungy Southside bar (of all places), but she was absolutely determined to find out— even if her knight doesn't seem half as interested. A Lodge was nothing if not persistent after all.
Then things get complicated.

Summary
He laughs again, leaning back in his chair, stretching his legs out and pulling her more comfortably against him. “Your wish is my command, Ms. Cooper.”
Her head falls to his shoulder. “Soon to be Mrs. Jones.”
The wedding date is set, only weeks away. She’s not big on flashy things, she hasn’t been since she left her mother’s house the night of their high school graduation to move in with him, and together they’ve planned a small, elaborate ceremony near Sweet Water River with his father and their closest friends in attendance. Betty isn’t even wearing white.
“You know,” Sweet Pea drawls, as Fangs returns to the table with two baskets of fries and two cups of coffee to sober them up. “You need one last hurrah, dear girl, one fial adventure before you become a kept woman.”
“Sweet Pea...” Jughead warns.
“How would you feel about going undercover?”

Summary
'There was the thing with Betty. I didn’t know what was going on. She was the person in my life who understood me most, and the only one I could spend indefinite amounts of time with without it ever being overwhelming. But that was before, before I was constantly thinking of when the next kiss would come, or exactly how in love I was expected to behave. Everyone always said these things were instinctual. Well, they weren’t for me. Romantic affection felt like a different language, and I didn’t know how to speak it. Touches should feel electric, kisses like explosions, proximity like a drug. But it didn’t. I had thought these things would come with time, but I had to admit to myself that they didn’t and probably never would. They say you know love when you feel it. But if it wasn’t love what I felt for Betty, then what was? What was wrong with me that I had never been in love that way?'
Basically a rewrite of the first season of Riverdale, in which Jughead Jones is compliant with his version in the Archie comics, which means he likes comics, burgers and is very much aroace, even if he doesn't know it yet.
This can also be read if you haven't watched or ever intend to watch Riverdale. -

Summary
Jughead rolled over, propping his head on his hand as she stared at her.
“What?” she asked quietly, her body becoming painfully aware of their proximity.
“I was just thinking about what you said earlier and I had a thought.”
“Did it get lonely?” she quipped.
“Smartass,” he deadpanned even as he smirked, “Seriously though, I was thinking about what you said earlier and if you wanna break your straight-laced image, what we're doing now is a good start but I know how to speed things along.”
“Oh, yeah? And what exactly do you suggest, oh mighty Serpent Prince?” Betty teased, feeling more confident.
“Well, you could take it a step further and date a Serpent.”
“I’m sorry, what?” Betty squeaked out, staring at him in shock. “And just who do you think is gonna wanna date me, huh?”
“Well, duh. Me, of course.”
“You-u...?” she stuttered, her body screaming at her to say yes, “Did-- Jughead, did you just ask me out?”
“In a sense, yeah,” he said with a smile, tracing his fingers along her arm.
“What’s that even supposed to mean?” she questioned, willingly her body to calm down.
“That means, you pretend to be my girlfriend.”

Summary
“Mom?” Betty calls into the house, peering around the corner.
No response.
As she makes her way into the kitchen and dining room area, Betty sees the door to the backyard has been haphazardly left wide open. The curtain attached to the inward side blows in the evening breeze.
Before doing much else, Betty secures that door, shutting it and locking it. When she’s finished she faces the kitchen.
It’s vacant… except for something unfamiliar left on the kitchen island.
Betty walks over, her head tilting in concern. There’s a piece of paper taped to a rock and… blood pooled under it. She rips the note off of the stone, still confused.
"Your mother says hi."

OR: When Alice gets kidnapped, Betty's taken into protection by the Southside Serpents. She meets Jughead Jones. They do not get along.

Summary
His giddiness wavered and the magical evening came crashing down with a too familiar voice in his ears, “Another one to join the Jones family business?”
Sighing heavily, he turned to look into green eyes of the blonde who has been his arch nemesis for the greater part of last decade. She smirked and batted her eyelashes in an innocent way. Memory of those lashes fluttering softly against his neck and the same voice moaning his name in the dark burnt his ears.
“Who allowed you to enter here, Cooper? Or, you just picked the lock, as always?”

Veronica did not plan to fall for her brother's best friend. She hates clichés like that. But life had other plans. -
