My Love -A Bughead Story

Our First Kiss

Betty's Point Of  View:

I wake up to the noise of a familiar sound, my alarm clock. Its 7:30 am and I hop straight into the shower, washing my body and hair. By 8 am I have gotten my hair dried and put on an outfit for the day, I then put my hair up in a ponytail and put on some makeup. At 9 I go downstairs to have breakfast and then my mom drives me to the doctor's. We wait in the waiting room for a while until a nurse calls "Ms Betty Cooper." I stand up, that's me. They do a couple tests on me and say the will email my mother and I the results. I try to go on normally with my day trying not to think about what the results could possibly be. 

At 3:45 I headed out to Pop's to see Jughead at a booth waiting for me. There are 2 burgers and 2 milkshakes. I walk over to him and sit down. "Hey!" I say with a cheeky smile. "Hey, what's up?" Jughead asks. "Not much." I say and sip my milkshake. "I almost didn't think you would come, considering you never answered my texts.. I wouldn't be mad though, I would have 2 burgers and 2 milkshakes all to myself!" Jughead chuckles. I laugh. We have a really good time and around 6:30 I decide its probably time to start heading home. "Thanks for tonight, Jug" I say with a smile on my face. "Anytime." Jughead says smiling back. "Do you need a ride?" He asks. "What did I say last time?" I laugh. "Sorry but I can't. I will walk." "I'll see you at school on Monday then?" Jughead says putting his helmet on. "Yep!" I exclaim and start walking home. 

Jughead's Point Of  View:

When I got back to the trailer I pull out my phone and text Betty. 

*his phone*

J- Hey Betty, had a really great time tonight, we need to hang out more often! I really want to get to know you!

B- Of course Jughead, I will always love to hang out!

J- Okay, well have a goodnight. Bye.

B- Goodnight Jug. 

I put my phone away and go to sleep. In the morning I wake up to my phone ringing, I check to see who was calling me at 9 am on a Sunday. "Betty" pops up across my screen so I obviously answer it. 

*on call*

B- WAKE UP SLEEPYHEAD!!

J- Ok, ok I'm up now. No need to shout.

B- Sorry I'm just excited!

J- Wait why? What for?

B- I am taking you somewhere.. (laughs)

J- (laughs) Oh no, you better not be kidnapping me

B- You wish, meet me at my house in an hour!

J- Ok, see ya then.

*betty hangs up*

I get shower and have breakfast, get dressed and all that stuff. I leave the trailer at 9:40 and drive my motorcycle to Betty's. I arrive at 9:50, 10 minutes before asked. I see Betty come outside looking amazing in her ripped jeans and floral top she was wearing. "You look stunning." I tell her. "So do you." Betty replies. We both laugh. "So.. where are we going?" I asked. "You'll see... we are walking so better warm your feet up, loser." Betty tells me and laughs. We go for a nice walk, not to long but not short either. She stops at this beautiful viewing area of Sweetwater River down below. "I want to go there with you in the summer" Betty tells me. "Sounds like a plan!" I exclaim.

Betty's Point Of  View:

I am admiring the view when I think its time. Time for an explanation. "Hey jug.." I say. "Yeah betty whats wrong?" He asks me looking concerned. "Oh nothing, nothing's wrong. Actually yes, everything is wrong. I want to start by saying it's finally time for an explanation about the other day. I haven't told anyone this, not Veronica, not Kevin.. no one. Only my mom and I know. I trust you enough that you wont repeat this or tell anyone else." Jug nods. "I- I ." I start. Jughead pulls me closer into his arms. He wraps himself around me making me feel safe and loved. I untangle myself and nod. "Let's sit down over here first." I say, walking towards the bench. We both sit. I take a deep breath in, and blow out. "I am sick. Not like the flu or anything, and it's not contagious." I look over and see Jughead's concerned face. "I have Leukaemia." I start to feel a tear getting ready to leave my eye. "I was diagnosed with it last summer and no one knows about it, just me and my mom, and well.. now you." I say well that tear slowly falls down my cheek. "It was never to much of a problem and I could always pretend to be happy and not sick. I don't tell anyone because I don't want to be known as the 'Sick Girl' I want to be Betty Cooper, no one else. I don't want the cancer to define me and tell me who I have to be." I start to cry even more. Tears are falling down my face every second now. Jughead pulls me in for a hug and hold me there well I calm down. "I- I am so sorry Betty, you don't deserve this." Jughead says. "Thanks Jughead, but that's not it..." I say looking at him. "It's been getting worse, the other day I coughed up blood and the doctor said if that happened again to go see him, so on Saturady my mom took me and they did some tests.. they said they would email me the results today.. I'm to nervous to look at them. So I brought you to help me. They said they would get sent at 11, it's now 10:50 so we have 10 minutes." I say and start to cry again. Jughead is still holding me. It's going to be ok Betty, it will be ok.

-10 MINUTES LATER-

"Are you ready?" Jughead asks me with his arm around my shoulders. "No, but I need to know.." "On 3. 1..,2..,3." Jughead counts down. Jughead opens the email and reads it out loud. "We have looked over the tests and are sadly confirming that you have 4 months left to live. I am very sorry, we have tried all the treatments, and none of them are working. We are very sorry. If you have any other health issues come see us asap. 

All I can think of is my mom. She will be so alone. I feel myself crawl into a ball and start crying. I can't feel anything, I'm so numb. "Jughea-jug. I- I can't be-believe it. I, I am dy-dying." I manage to say over the millions of tears streaming down my face. "Bet-betty. I- I am so- so sorry." I hear Jughead start crying. I look up at him and wipe his tears off his face. "It-it's ok." I say. I look at him and he is looking at me. He wipes my tears and we both lean in closer. "Bet-" Is all Jughead can manage to say before I kiss him. Our lips connect and I feel like a dozen rockets just lit up inside my stomach. For a minute I forget that I'm dying and just live in the moment of the best kiss I've ever had. We pull away. I curl in a ball while Jughead holds me. I cry silently and can feel Jughead is crying too.
