Upon realising what she's going through, Reggie doesn't think it's the right time for them and ends things. They almost get back together, until Veronica suddenly dumps Reggie to reunite with Archie.

After graduation, everyone goes their separate ways. Reggie stays in Riverdale and ends up working for Hiram, who is looking to decimate the town.

 * Archie Andrews

Archie and Veronica have a mutual sexual attraction from the moment they meet. Veronica tries to curtail herself because of her friendship with Betty and as it's only a physical attraction. Despite this, she makes out with Archie, but regrets it and they become friends. Comforting each other over their respective parental issues, they hook up again and slowly start dating. The release of Veronica's mafia father from prison complicates their romance as her father wants to get rid of Archie and eventually causes their break-up. After working with the FBI to get Hiram Lodge put back behind bars, they get back together. They're together through most of their senior year, until Archie cheats on Veronica with Betty. He tells her at prom and they break up, with Veronica going back to him to have sex. 7 years after high school, they're both in a bad place as they return to Riverdale and quickly try to find stability and comfort in each other.

Veronica and Archie then briefly move in together until they realize, now together without obstacles for the first time, that they are not compatible. She moves out and they break up for good.

Chad and Veronica meet and marry, but Chad is fairly shady and Veronica later discovers that he caused a helicopter crash that put her in the hospital, following a huge fight they had at a party. Veronica admits that she stayed with Chad out of pity after the helicopter crash, although she wasn't committed to the marriage anymore, because in that fight she had wished that Chad would die. Chad also silently confirms Veronica's query whether if they had died, he was fine because they would've then been together forever. Despite knowing this, she sleeps with him while they're separating and she's ostensibly dating Archie again.

Chuck and other Bulldogs were suspended for a month for their misogynistic actions. After Chuck returned to school, he took Cheryl up on her request that he join her in crashing the quiet birthday celebration for Jughead at Archie's house.
