Betty POV

I wake up because my phone's ringing. I grab it off the charger and see its Jughead. I answer it.

"Good morning my little TV star" he smiles.

"Hi you liked it?" My first episode of the show I'm in aired last night.

"Yeah its was amazing turns out Jellybean watches the show, she loved it"

"I'm glad she liked it. Why are you up so early?" I say

"I have a doctors appointment" then Hotdog comes on the camera.

"Hey Hotdog, Hi buddy" I say in my doggie voice.

"How come you don't talk to me like that" he asks when he comes back on camera.

"Because that's the voice I talk to kids and pets"

"What are you doing?"

"Well before you called me I was sleeping" I say.

"Oh I'm sorry I woke you" he says.

"Well it was going to be either you or my sisters." I say.

"How's it been living with your sisters again?"

"I'm the designated babysitter. Yesterday my parents went to some dinner party. And the girls wake me up every morning at 7 am. My parents probably told them not too today." I say.

"I miss waking up next to you every morning" He says.

"Its a good thing you're blind you can't see me without makeup"

"I'm sure you look just as beautiful" he smiles.

"You do know how to make a girl blush" I say.

"Jug come on" I hear Fp say in the background.

"Oh I gotta go talk to you later love you" he says.

"Love you too bye" I say and hang up. I guess I'm going to Jughead's house. After doctor appointments Jughead is always drained and sad. If I'm there he might be a little happier.

I walk into Jugheads house and hear Fp talking to Gladys.

"He complains but then refuses to do it. It pisses me off Glad's" Fp says.

"Just give him time" she says.

"Was this a bad time to come over?" I ask.

"No Betty he's in his bedroom" Fp says.

"Okay thanks" I smile and walk upstairs. When I get to jughead room. He was crying on his bed.

"Juggie what's wrong" I ask and laydown next to him.

"What isn't wrong betty? My life fucking sucks... e-everything's bad I...I just can't do this anymore." He sobs.

"Jug what cant you do anymore?" I ask him.

"Live. I can't live anymore because I'm fucking blind. I can't do what I want. I feel useless...so fucking useless"

"You aren't useless Love" I say and wipe the tears off his face.

"I just wish I could see. I wish I could see you. I wish I could write again. Read again." He says.

"I know Jug, I know" I say and hug him.

"Hey Betty surprised you want to talk to me without Cheryl" Toni says.

"Hi" I smile.

"What's up" She asks.

"I wanted to talk to you about...about a surgery for Jughead. They do it here in New York and it has a-"

"Why don't you just tell Jughead about it" She asks.

"I am going too I just wanted to tell you about it and see if you approve of it maybe" i say.

"Even if I approve of it its still Jugs decision you have to tell him." She says.

"Okay but could you just look it over please" I ask her.

"Fine I will" she smiles and takes the folder and leaves.
