Rating: Pg-13 at the most I think

She opened the door, hoping that it wasn't Ian, not yet, she needed to brace herself for that. she sighed in relief. "Max, hi, thanks for coming," she said, moving aside so he could move inside.

He gave her a quick kiss on the cheek. "Of course, honey, you know I'd drop everything for you. Luckily there was nothing to drop." He looked into her bedroom, shaking his head at the half empty boxes and stuff being thrown randomly into them. "We need to teach you how to pack, no wonder you called me. Texted me, whatever. What's this about? Breaking up with Ian? What happened?"

She sighed, "yes, I can't pack worth shit, that's why I called you and Jake. You'll like him. He's taken, before you asked," she then went on to explain what had happened the day before, everything from the kidnapping to forgetting something for Ian. "I even got you a bloody pair," she said, grabbing them and shoving them on his head.

"You know I have a pair from Disney World Mars, right?" He chuckled. "They're holographic, really nice, I'll show you them sometime." Leave it to Max to brush past the kidnapping like it was nothing. "So, finally realizing what I figured out the night you showed up with the cutie pie?"

"I'm not leaving him for Owen!" She said, firmly, but a part of her wondered, was she? Was she ending this now so she could be with the guy she'd been fucking since August? She pushed it away. No, Owen and her were just best friends, that's all. Best friends with really awesome benefits.

Max nodded, he knew beter than to press it. She was in one of her moods. And things were probably confusing enough for her. "Let me show you how to really pack, honey." He said, as the door they left ajar opened more, both turning to look.

"I know he is, i real his arse in from hetero land, and that was nearly five years ago. I'm just that good." He said with a little playful smug nod before making a face, looking at Lacey over his shoulder. "God, stop yelling Lace, we're not deaf. You're blind, mind you, but that's a different story that'll just lead to more yelling." He said as he continued to pack for her.

Betty just listened to her friend rant, giving her an odd look. "Right, okay. I get it, i uh, think."

"She's leaving the good boy for the bad boy." Jack whispered at Betty, to the point where he was practically mouthing the words if only not to get Lacey shouting again.

"Oh, right, okay." Betty nodded. "I'm just gonna, you know." She jabbed a thumb in the direction of the living room over her shoulder. "I'll be out there, you know if you need any help...." She shook her head. "Running away." She finished lamely as she hurried out of the room, unable to stop herself from seeing the similarities between what Lacey was doing to Ian and what Archie had done to her.

Jake watched the blonde hurry away before turning to the other two in the room, looking confused. "Okay, one, that was kinda cold. And two, what the hell's her issue? Please don't tell me you have a third and it's her, because one, ew! She's Rose's double and since i see Rose as a sister, it's kinda weird. And two, jealous! Geez, how come you get three?"

Max laughed brightly, "Oh, Jake, you and I are going to get along famously, you pulled him in from Hetero land?" He reached over to give the blond a High Five snickering at the chuckled disguised as a disgusted sound.

She looked up, hearing Jake's words despite him trying to hide it. Oh could he have shoved his foot into his mouth any further, she stood up and slugged him a good one in the arm, glaringn. "Ok one, what the hell do you think I'm doing? I'm breaking up with my boyfriend, and leaving the dorms at the same time because I couldn't bear seeing his face day after day? If that isn't running away, I don't know what is. And Two," she slugged him again, "she moved all the way here from Riverdale to get away from the fact the the guy she loved chose her best friend over her. He chose the bad girl over the good girl. So thank you very much for comparing me to my friend's old flame that she's still not over. Esepcially since to leave Ian for Owen, Owen would have to actually be into me that way," She sat back down, covering her eyes with her hands. There was no use trying to deny how she felt for Owen, not with these two.

Max gave her a look. "Honey, Jake is right, you're blind if you think that," he turned to Jake, "And you did not see them when they came to Mars for take away and Sex after he became not so dead boy."

"Ow ow!" Jake pulled away from her after the second punch. "Okay! Christ, i didn't ask what you were doing, i know that. Secondly, i didn't know that she had been jerked around by some moron. You need to tell me these things before i meet knew people, you know how my foot loves to live in my mouth." He rubbed his arm. "And Max is right, you're insane if you can't see that the bloke it head over heels for you babe." He then shook his head at Max. "Was it that big neon sign obvious? Cause that's them at work."

She just rolled her eyes. "Oh please with the over dramatics, Jake," she said, "I didn't even punch you that hard."

"Yeah, she punched Cutie Pie harder when they trying to deny how they felt about each other, and were both suffering from terminal foot in mouth syndrome," Max said, taping shut the box and labeling it.

"Shut it Max," she said, still looking at Jake. "And because I'm not leaving Ian for Owen. I've said that at least three times. So I don't like us being compared to Archie and Veronica, okies?" She rolled her eyes. "And there is no neon sign. Unless it says Fuck Buddies. I think we've both given up trying to pretend you guys don't know we're fucking."

"Oh honey, that was not fucking you were doing in my apartment that night." He said, giving her a little smirk, "that was two people making love."

"Bite me, Max."

	"Oh come on, i'm delicate and Mickey hates it when i'm all marred." He said with a cheeky mock pout when Lacey called him on his dramatics. "Wait what? You punched Owen and then shagged him?" He then turned to Max. "And you watched?" He arched an eyebrow for a moment before smirking at his new friend. "Was it hot?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Ugh, remind me why invited you guys?" She groaned, throwing herself on the bed very dramatically. "If I wanted this kind of treatment, I would have called Tessa. You're supposed to be on my side."

"We are sweetie, we're also not blind," Max said, turning back to Jake. "Oh, yeah, it was very hot. This was like Harlequin novel level of shagging. And that's to say nothing of the two snogs I caught them in."

"You only caught one, I thought...oh god, you nosy little queen." she groaned, throwing her arms over her face. "And Jake?" She looked up quickly, "If you're so delicate and Mickey hates it when you're all marred, One, why the hell are you working for Torchwood, and two, why the hell after the bad jobs do you two go straight for the hot house. The more battered the faster you two are running in there."

"Yeah, what Max said. We're on your side, even though we give you a hard time about it." He said, plopping down on the bed next to her. "We just want to see you happy." He reminded her before laughing when she asked him about the quick and dirty shagging he and Mickey got up to. "Well one, because we started working for Torchwood before we started shagging. And two, well, there's no better way to get down from a near death high then to get off." He said with a little shrug and a cheeky wiggle of his eyebrows. "You should know that, you are Owen are just as bad." He teased, having a feeling he just might get hit again.

Lacey fixed him with a look, before laughing and smacking him. "Oi! My sensitive ears don't need to know what you two do in the Hot House. And Owen and I are not as bad, mostly because you hog the Hot House, Dad and Tad get the Archives, and that leaves us with what? He won't let me near the weapons, med bay is a bit to public forum, and the cells, well, Janet watches."

Max smirked, "I could stand to hear a little more, good lookin."

Lacey groaned and stood up. "Ok, I'm going to talk to Betty, if you two are about to start swapping conquests." She walked out of the room, seeing Betty sitting on the sofa. "Hey," she said softly, "can we talk?"

"Oh please, there isn't anything about your ears that are sensitive." He said with a playful roll of his eyes. "The cells aren't that bad, it only gets weird if Janet starts to make that weird growling noise. That's a real mood killer. If you'd like, Mickey and I will start a rota for the hot house with you and Owen." He said with a smirk before turning to Max when he spoke up, grinning. "Oh i bet you could." He just nodded when Lacey went walking out of the room.

Betty had been idly flipping through the stations on the tv, looking up when Lacey walked into the room. "Yeah, sure." She said with a little nod, turning the tv off with the remote and putting it down next to her.

"Yes to the Rota!" she called as she left the room, leaving Max and Jake to talk about whatever they wanted to. She waited until Betty had turned the TV. She sat down in one of the arm chairs, and sighed. "first of all, let my apologize for mister foot in mouth in there. He doesn't think before words fall out of his mouth," she sighed, "I know how this must seem. Especially when big mouth over basically told you I'm leaving Ian, the good boy, for Owen, who is apparently the bad boy. Which one, he's a git and a prat and...ok I see their points," she said with a shake of her head, "but they're wrong. I'm not leaving Ian for Owen. I'm leaving Ian because...because I realized I was stringing him along, and that's not fair to him. And I didn't mean for big mouth in there to remind you of everything with Archie and Veronica. They're supposed to be here, like I said, for moral support." She glared at the door, before turning back. "And yeah, I am. I'm running away. I don't think I could face walking out of that room and seeing the guy whose heart I broke every morning. I'm a coward. Always have been."

Betty listened to Lacey talk, a small ghost of a smile on her lips. "It's okay." She shrugged. "I'm sure he didn't mean anything by it, how could he, he didn't know. It was just a bit of a slap in the face guess, the reminder." She chuckled. "I don't mean to make your problems mind, so i'll just shut up now. But -" She paused, shrugging once again. "I just thought you and Ian were doing alright, you were so into each other. But then, i'm not the best judge when it comes to relationships." She chuckled softly. "Obviously." Betty then shook her head, smiling a friendly smile. "And you're not a coward, you're just running away from a room. I ran away from a town and a life, i think i win the cowardly awards." She joked a bit. "Gotta admit though, i'll miss having you around here. Well, when you were here that is." She teased.

Lacey let out a breath she'd been holding, good, no permenant damage to their friendship. "Something happened yesterday. Someone thought they could use me to get money out of my Dad. I'm ok," she said quickly, "Dad isn't a pushover, and they got what they deserved, but during it all, no one thought I was with Ian. I never stopped to think about what Ian must have been thinking, if he were worried about me." She shrugged. "But I made sure to worry about the people I work with, my best friend." Worry about what she should get them from Disney World, but Betty thought she was the Trust fund baby. "I don't think you're a coward for leaving that behind. Obviously," she said, gesturing to what she was doing. "Oh, I'll still be around. I'm not quitting school, just moving back home. Hopefully we can still hang out, yeah?" She chuckled. "Yeah, I didn't really stay here much, did I?"

Betty made a surprise face when Lacey mentioned people trying to use her for money. "Oh my god, are you okay?" She paused, shaking her head at herself wryly. "Of course you are, you just said you were." She chuckled before sobering. "I guess it was a real eye opening moment huh?" She said, speaking about the realization of not thinking about Ian during the whole ordeal. "Oh, we can still hang out for sure." She nodded. "And no, you really didn't stay here much anyways." She giggled softly.

"Yeah," she said chuckling, "worst I got out of this was slightly sprained wrist. They, however, had to deal with the wrath of my father. This is a scary thing, trust me. I almost feel bad for them. Almost," she said with a cheeky grin. "Yeah, it was an eye opening moment." In more ways than one. "We should go out for lunch sometime. My uncle owns the Shark Bait Diner. And believe me, he can cook," she grinned. "I guess I'm too much of a Daddy's girl to stay anywhere other than home."

The distinct sound of someone coughing out bullshit made Lacey groan and throw a pillow at her door. "God you two are the nosiest queens!" She rolled her eyes. "I better go make sure they don't do anything I'll regret. I'll call ya later so we can talk about hanging out." She smiled heading back to her room. "Can't I ever get a moment's peace?!" she said to the two men inside.
