It does matter. What were you going to say?

idk
more like a thing I guess

What kind of thing?

[ she has her suspicions about what he means, what he's been dancing around. dots are connecting dimly in her head.]

[ God, this is awkward; maybe it's necessary, maybe even overdue, but Reggie has no idea how to have this conversation with her. ]

what kind do u think

Were you guys together-together?

[ because that's what it feels like he's trying to hint at, what he's been dancing around. ]

[ He's had his reasons for the vagueness -- including that this would be so much easier to talk about if all they'd done was bang, somehow -- but it seems like a pointless secret to keep now; if not him, she'd probably find out through Magnus or Ronan eventually anyway. ]

yeahhhh

[ There's a long pause.]

Why didn't you say anything sooner?

well bcuz its weird right
and besides riverdale archies p much the only thing we have in common

If you cared about each other, why is that weird? [ Okay, it's a little weird but this place has taught her that sexuality is a lot more fluid than she realized. She feels weird about it all but she can act supportive while she sorts out her feelings.]
So?

[ It's not even people knowing that he's bi which bothers Reggie (if it did he'd probably make more of an effort to ever bother trying to hide it) but that-- well, it's Archie. Which does make it all a bit weird. ]

idk
weird cuz i didnt know archie ever went 4 dudes
or cuz i suck at dating
or cuz i barely get along with any of his friends
or cuz when i went back home i found out hes got a gf now so it almost def wont ever happen again

& probably some other reasons too
i guess pick ur favorite

[ for all that it's weird for her. betty's a good person, she wants to comfort someone who is obviously upset.]

I'm sorry I didn't know and I'm sorry that you guys thought you needed to keep it a secret from me.

And you know, he could come back.

[ Reggie starts typing and then stops a couple of times, trying to work out his response. Ugh. This is really not his thing, sincere (in the range of "heartfelt") conversations like this.

He ignores her second point, the more sensitive and relevant one, to instead say: ]

well i didnt rly tell anyone if that makes u feel any better

It makes me sad.

?
what why

Because that means you guys felt like it needed to be a secret?

idk if i'd call it a secret exactly
i dont rly keep secrets some shit i just dont talk about as much

anyway relax cooper he was prob getting around to telling u soon
bet on account of me hating jughead and all he just wanted to figure out how to break the news gently or w/e

Well, Archie kept it a secret, at least.

[ Archie was earnest and usually a terrible liar. Later, she'll start to realize the things he'd said that hinted at his relationship with Reggie.]

I'm sorry he's gone, Reggie.
Maybe you and Jug can not be so hard on each other? We've all we got here.

listen ur gonna need to let that part go
not like its always that simple

sorry what

I know that.

[ Archie is her best friend.]

You know what I'm talking about. You are both always at each other's throats.

Edited 2018-03-16 05:19 (UTC)

if u say so
bcuz for sum reason a lot of ppl get keeping secrets and just not knowing sumthing yet confused

and yeah not for nothing
thatd be like asking u to get along with cheryl blossom

Okay, I get what you're saying but when Cheryl was here, I tried to get along with her.

[ she was still the worst.]

and did it work

She wasn't here long.

[ no. ]

so thats a no then

but even if she stayed how exactly did u picture that working out in the long run
