Archie and Jughead

The relationship between Archie Andrews and Jughead Jones is complicated and pre-dates the series. They were best friends up until a falling-out in the summer of 2017 after Archie canceled their road trip at the last minute. Which Jughead later on in season one found out he ditched him for hooking up with Geraldine Grundy, the school music teacher. Their relationship improves over the course of the first season until Archie admits to investigating FP's trailer.

History
Archie and Jughead were best friends since childhood. Fred recalled Archie sneaking out at night to go to Jughead's treehouse.

They were supposed to go on a road trip over the weekend of July 4th, but Archie cancelled at the last minute to hook up with Geraldine Grundy, with whom he was having an affair. Sometime afterwards, Jughead and Archie got into a serious fight that disrupted their friendship. They lost touch and never attempted to make up, and their first conversation since the fight is a tense encounter after Archie runs into him at the Chock'lit Shoppe while looking for Betty.

Season 2
After Archie's father was shot, Jughead, Betty, and Veronica joined Archie at Riverdale General Hospital to support and comfort him during his time of need.

Archie texted Jughead at Southside High, and told him to meet him now, in a rather urgent tone. Jughead, meanwhile, was still in conversation with Robert Phillips about the article he just wrote for the Red and Black, and Jughead excused himself out of the room. Once he exited the room, Archie confronted him and told Jughead they have to leave now, as a raid of the school was happening. As if on cue, Mayor McCoy and Sheriff Keller barge into the school, and they point left and right, towards anyone who has the logo of the Southside Serpents and arresting them. Jughead tugs against Archie, as he sees Toni in danger of arrest. Archie said that Jughead won't be able to save her when he's in jail, and they both leave.

During the tenure of Riverdale Drag Race, Archie was Jughead's companion in the competition against the Ghoulies. Archie was later to blame for all that happened, with the police catching the Ghoulies they were racing, Malachai (the leader), and an unnamed Ghoulie, and the rounding up of the gang, which angered Jughead, and is later the subject of Archie and Fred Andrews's conversation at the Andrews house.
