That you even thought to ask is exactly why I like you, Archie Andrews. [The urge for the pet name to slip out instead is there, but there's something that restrains her. Veronica believes in the importance of names, of knowing how significant it is to hold on to that. Once they leave this room, her name—the Lodge of it all—will change and influence every choice they make. Once they leave, Hiram Lodge will throw his name around, and he'll try to smother the Andrews of it all. Knowing him, he has a plan.
And that's assuming it didn't start with Fred's now-permanent limp.
Her hand frees his hand, drawing back to feather over his jaw. She's missed him, and it hurts a little how much she has. It's weird for her, weird to comprehend that, weird to understand how significant this is and how significant she needs it to be.]
Of course you can kiss me. [She leans in close, breath close to his mouth, inviting him in. There's only a second that passes before Veronica herself loses patience and completes the connection there, hips shifting down against his with ease.]
