[ avoided each other for a while and then had sex again...]
It's not "easy" for me to say. Archie has been my best friend longer than you guys were friends.
Our situation was different but we talked about it. [ that is true.] He internalizes things. It's better if you talk to him or he'll start to find a way to blame himself.
so what do u rly expect me to believe that neither of u have ever even THOUGHT about it? like not even once? esp if u've been best friends forever like cmon I dont buy it
but I know archies never thought about doing a guy b4 he even told me that
[ Er... uh. He follows that up quickly so maybe Betty comment on that: ]
look fine I'll talk to him next time I see him
[ Because Archie blaming himself also hadn't even occurred to Reggie... because how? Reggie's been more worried Archie might have felt taken advantage of, aside from the obvious awkwardness already inherent to the situation, but-- well, maybe Betty still has some kind of point. They need to talk sometime. ]
That doesn't make it any less awkward for us.[ There's that whole being in love with Jughead thing, you know. And Jughead being Archie's other best friend.]
Whenever you're ready but make it sooner rather than later, okay?
[ Big though that may be... Reggie can't tell if Betty's underestimating his capability, or if she's delegating him responsibility over Archie. Or maybe both. ]
cuz like ftr I can handle this sort of thing, yknow
I'm not talking about just like, a group of guys at the park real football u need a real team a field a circuit a coach other teams to play against itd be like if I told u to just go cheerlead again
u think? rly? maybe ur right about that archie 4 sure & I could probably round up at least a couple other guys 4 it too but getting space and equipment will be the hard part
