Chughead

Juryl is the het ship between Jughead Jones and Cheryl Blossom on CW teen mystery drama Riverdale.

Canon
Cheryl is especially venomous towards Jughead, whom she considers the opposite of her own riches, while Jughead mostly eschews contact with her, but of course takes offense to her reprehensible behaviour. However, Jughead is altruistic and knows her behaviour is also marred by her twin brother's shocking death. Their contact is mostly peripheral through Betty, Veronica or Archie, such as when Jughead attends Jason's funeral at Thornhill Mansion or when Cheryl drops by the Andrews' to gift Archie an expensive guitar, an instance Cheryl largely ignores Jughead's presence.

Basically they're enemies, but not actively out to get one another. This changes when Jughead's father is accused of Jason's murder and subsequently arrested. Jughead takes it upon himself to apologise to Cheryl, who starts hitting him in anguish and Jughead kinda lets her, until Archie pulls her away. The following day Cheryl seeks out Jughead and apologises for hitting him, offering him her expensive brooch as a token, which confuses Jughead. Once Veronica realises that Cheryl has lost all hope and attempts to jump into the frozen river, along with the others Jughead is there to help save her life.

Following the revelation of Jason's killer, Cheryl resumes her facade towards Jughead and Betty as a cold, name-calling, superficial girl. As Jughead transfers to Southside High, they barely spend time together, but they are in the same 'Secret Santa' group arranged by Kevin at Christmas 2017.
