Part 12

Jughead pov

[a month later]
Betty hasn't been herself lately. I can feel how filled with worries she is. B-"juggie" I stopped what I was doing in the kitchen and quickly turned on my heels. J-"hey, take it easy." Her eyes were red and her chest raised quickly and uncomfortably. I moved her to the couch and sat with her. J-"breathe betts, just breath." B-"it's hurts" she cried out. J-"I know, I know. Just try for me." J-"we'll do it together." J-"look at me." I got her to forced on my eyes. J-"good now just one breath in and out." She kept following my breath and I continued to keep eye contact with her. I made sure to calm her down before bringing it up again. She leaned into my chest and her sobs grew quite. J-"it'll be okay," I whispered holding her tightly. B-"i-I'm s-sorry" J-"no, no no, don't be." B-"I couldn't- I couldn't control it." J-"sssh I know, don't work yourself up love. Remember to breathe properly" she nodded, still holding her close to my chest. I crashed her back for a few minutes and she stopped crying. B-"I'm scared," she spoke up. J-"of what love?" B-"what if-" she hold her hand to her pregnant belly and tear rolled down her cheek. I whipped it away. J-"take you time," I whispered. B-"what if- I can't feel them moving jug. What if they aren't okay." She cries out, J-"betts of course the baby is okay. I know you're worried but look at how you are already maybe- just maybe it would help to find out the gender and just get a check up. So we can ease your mind a little." I bought her head up to look at me again. B-"i- what if." J-"No. No what if's, it'll be okay. I promise you." I took her hand in mine and kissed it a few times. J-"Listen this is what we're going to do. I'll bring you something to drink and a nice warm blanket, then I'll call up to the doctors office and make sure she can make time for you today because I think that's  what you need." She took a moment to breath. J-"okay?" B-"yeah, t-thank you." I stood and was about to leave. B-"jug.." I stopped up and turned to face her. She got up and hugged me. B-"I love you, thank you for- for always being there and knowing what to say." J-"of course honey." I kissed her head. J-"go sit down, I'll be right there." I kissed her lightly on the lips and walked away.

J-"Betty." She turned her head around to look at me. B-"hm?" J-"we have coke." I told her knowing how much she love it. She crepes a smile on her lips and a light giggle. J-"you're so weird." I sat down besides her being my arms around her, pulling her into me. B-"I love you." I looked down at her. J-" I love you too." I kissed her afterwards and she reached out for her coke, took a sip and asked if I wanted some. J-"No thanks love." She snuggled into me more and signed. B-"I already feel better." J-"I'm glad. I still think you need to stop worrying so much about our little baby. I mean look at you and your beautiful belly." She giggled and I kissed her belly. B-" I know, and I get what you're saying. Maybe we should find out the gender when we're going to the doctor. I've just been so unsure. You know? I didn't wanna get to excited if-if I were to lose it." J-"oh betts," my heart sank to my stomach. J-"I know, I know it's hard but you're so strong and we just gotta hope for the best. I'm nervous too because we're new to this but I believe in us."

She hugged me tightly and blinked away her tears. B-"you're right, you're so right. God you're annoying with your perfect word sometimes." J-"whoops can't help it," I laughed as she giggled.
She took a deep breath as we got called in after waiting a few minutes. J-"I'm right here," I whispered quietly as the doctor got ready. She nodded and I kissed her hand that I was holding tightly while I sat besides her. D-"Okay Betty this will be quick, so I won't be keeping you here for too long." Betty smiled weakly and nodded.  D-"okay great, first off let me look after the heartbeat." She didn't scran for more than a few seconds before it appeared loudly. Betty looked at me and smiled. J-"told you there wasn't anything to worry about." I smirked, B-"thank god," she signed relieved. D-"I understand you want me to tell you the gender, right?" B-"yes," I kept looking at the screen hoping I could see it clear. D-"well well, congratulations on your little boy." The doctor smiled and Betty let a tear slip. J-"wow, we're having a boy?!" My eyes widened as I relished. B-"we are jug!" Betty giggled tearfully and sat up after whipped the gel of her stomach. The doctor handed us some pictures of our little baby's boy. J-"my own little son," I looked at Betty. She threw herself into my arms. J-"careful love," I chuckled. B-"thank you jug. Thank you for making me go even though I was nervous." J-"that's what I'm here for," I kissed her cheek and we drove home.

B-"Juggie, come to bed!" Betty yelled, already laying there in the big bed waiting for her husband to appear in the doorframe. J-"would you relax pregnant woman." Jughead laughed while he finally walked through and dropped his clothing on the floor. B-"took you long enough." He glared at her. B-"okay okay grumpy," Jughead playful rolled his eyes at Betty and moved under the durvet to snuggle into his wife who was carrying his son. J-"you okay? After everything today." He asked out of concern for his love. B-"I think so, I mean I'm happy that we're having a baby boy, It was just  a lot... with my panic attack earlier.." Jughead looked at her and listened to every word she spoke. J-"I totally get that. I'm proud of you, you handled it so well." He assured her as he kissed Betty's forehead. B-"I'm glad you were there." J-"me too," Jughead agreed and kissed Betty before she drifted off to a much needed sleep.
