Jughead sat at the nicely decorated table hoping for this to all end in the way he hoped it would. He and the girls had spent hours decorated and organizing the beach area; making it a nice mixture of sweet and fancy. Veronica had just got back from betty and now all they could do is sit and wait. By the first hour,, they weren't that worried about her not being there they knew it would take betty time to decide what she wanted so it would just be a little longer and things would pan out. By hour 2 nerves were starting to shake; time was going and it was going fast so everyone was crossing every limb that they could in hope that it just took her a little longer to figure things out. But by 8:30 the disappointment was there and it was odovies; everyone was sad that she didn't show they were hoping that she would like to give this a try but she didn't from what they saw and there was not much they can do about that.
"I'm so sorry jug I tried I did." veronica apologized as they sadly and in a mopy kind of way to their cars. Veronica was angry, but not with betty with the world for not letting her and Jughead just be happy but sometimes things don't go as planned right.
"It's fine ill just have to find a way to tell her later but I know it would probably hurt more for her to just hear about it than see, I know that would hurt me.
"You know I just hope that things end well for you guys ok. You make her happy and the same goes for her. I don't like to see you guys all sad and lonely it hurts."
" tell me about it, I mean I am living it but ill figure something out. After I give her awhile to cool off of course." he answered as Jughead got in his car and starting it. Veronica gave him one last loving smile as he pulled off heading towards his home. The whole ride there jughead surprisingly kept it together. But only on the outside on the inside, he was falling apart his heart was gone simply because he left it with the beautiful blond. His brain just completely shut down so bad he was glad to have made it home on one piece. He walked up to his apartment slower than ever before; it felt like every step he took was heavier and heavier than the last. Eventually, he made it to his door unlocking it just at slow, but the moment the door was open he froze at the sight of the person he thought he wasn't going to be seeing for a long time besides work of course.
His dearest Betty copper was right there sitting on his couch looking him dead in the eye with so much determination that he was sure her head was close to exploding. But Betty was truly panicking she wanted to run out as soon as she saw his face but she had to do this because even if she didn't want to admit it veronica had a point she still loved him with all her heart and even if there is a small chance that she could fix the cracks in their broken love story she had to take it.
"Betty I-" Jughead started but was quickly cut off.
"No Jughead just listen. I still love you and honestly,, I think I always will but the problem is I have no idea if you still love me."
"Of corses I do betty-" jughead started again as he took a step towards her but she quickly put her hands out in front of her stopping him quickly.
"Do you love me because I'm having a hard time believing that Jughead the only way I will ever forgive you is if you tell me the truth right the hell now or I walk out that door and this is over for good no more games to play nothing so please just tell me the truth."?
"Do you really want to know?"
"More then anything." jughead let out a huff be for walking his way up the stairs to the loft part of his apartment going into his drawer grabbing a giant fouled up paper and running back down spreading out the paper out across his island making sure it was perfect for betty to see.
Betty took slow small steps forward almost creating a dramatic effect to ever thing. When she finally got to the paper she was confused on what she was looking at; it was almost like a drawing of a park like area but with a big tarp like thing and cars scattered around the place. But tears threatened to spew from eyes as she looked over in the top right corner reading the words 'Riverdale Drive in' to go with the picture.
"Jughead what is this?" betty asked looking up at him from her eyelashes as he put a cup of water in front of her from the other side of the island.
"Well betty you said that one of your dreams was to bring the old drive in back to life and i want every dream of yours to come true so for the past mouth or two I have been rebuilding it for you as a surprise." he answered with a smile coming to stand next to her while she wiped away her tears. Even though betty was beyond joyed by this it still didn't explain one small part of their relationship problems.
"But you still haven't told me who was that girl that you were meeting with Jug." Jughead just looked her in the eye before bursting out laugh making Betty glare at him in counfushen.
"What, what's so funny."
"Betty the girl I was meeting with that night was my sister Jellybean." Betty eyes went completely wide starting to feel like a slight dumb dumb at the moment.
"WHAT?"
"That was my sister she is going to school to become a professional real estate agent and has meet some high powered people that were helping out with reviving. She came to help me tweak out a couple thing with it." Betty couldn't help but feel like such a bad person. She has been down grading Jughead for days when all he was doing was something sweet and kind for her.
"Oh my god jughead I, I don't even know what to say. I'm sorry for accusing of being unloyal and so much more jug; you are the greatest man that I thing I could ever find please forgive." By this point Bettys face was wet and salty with tears. Jughead couldn't stand the site of it so he quickly reached his hands up wiping away her tears before pulling her into a tight hug say three simple words that guaranteed them that everything was going to be ok.
"I love you."
