"Have you seen jughead?" Betty asked walking in as Veronica and Kevin shook their heads "I haven't seen him since after chucks party" Kevin says as betty let's out a sigh "okay..thanks anyway" betty says and leaves pops and goes to jughead's house
She knocks at the door to see jellybean at the door. "Hey is jughead home?" Betty asked "yea how come?" She asked her "oh it's just..he's been gone for 2 weeks now I was just worried about him" she says as jellybean nods "he's up in his room" she says as betty thanks her and walks up to jugheads room.
She knocks at the door "jug? It's me, betty" she says. She could hear shuffling around in his room. The door unlocked and was pulled open by him. Bags under his eyes, his hair a mess and tears stains on his cheeks. Looks like he hasn't slept in days. "Oh gosh" Betty says pushing open the door and walking in and closing it behind her locking it.
"What happened to you?" She asked him.
He just sat on his bed and looked at her blankly. "Jug?" She says sitting next to him. He now stairs at the wall not wanting to make eye contact with her at all. "Juggie are you okay?" She asked raising her hand up to touch his forehead, her jerks away from her hand making her worried. "What happened?" She asked. He looks at her and swallows down hard. "I-I'm sorry.." he whispers his voice trembling. He looks away. "What do you mean? Why are you sorry?" She asked touching his hand making him Flench "..we promised we'd lose our first time together..I'm sorry.." he repeated as she stands up and looks at him. "Jug..did you..sleep with someone at the party!?" She asked her voice raising a little "no-" "- forget it" she interrupts and reaches for the door.
"She forced herself on me" he says. She froze tears filled her eyes. She slowly turned around and looked at him tears in his eyes. "She drugged me..took me to a room.. tided me down..a-and.." his voice broke. She ran over to him and pulled him into a hug and cried into his hair as he cried in her arms "I-it's all my fault.." he sobbed "no! No don't say that Jug, no none of it was you're fault okay? None of it" she says her voice trembling as she holds him tight and kisses his head. He sobbed loudly. "It's not your fault.." she repeats.
This hurt her, as his girlfriend this hurt her. She's never seen nor heard him cry like this before. It was clear that he was sorry which he never should be. It wasn't his fault it never will be. It was also clear that he was terribly terrified and scarred about what happened that night and her roll as his girlfriend is to protect him.
After awhile he fell asleep in her embrace feeling safe. She carefully laid his head on the pillow and pulled the cover over his shoulders. She kissed his head "I'm sorry I wasn't there..to protect you.." she says and strokes his curl out of his face and cresses his cheek with the back of her hand. For the first time in 2 weeks he had finally had some rest.
2 months go by, the girl that had done it to him has arrested for sexually harassing a minor. Apparently that girl was in her mid 20s in a high schools kids party. Jughead had stared going to therapy to help him recover from what happened that day. Betty hadn't left his side since.
2 year later
"I'm out of conditioner" she says stepping out of the bathroom in just a robe. He set his book down and looked at her "you look beautiful" he says as she smiles "you look beautiful too" she says back to him making him chuckle. She walks over and sat on the bed and kissed him. He pulled her into his lap and kissed her. "I'm ready.." he says as she looks at him "huh?" "I'm ready if you are ready.." he said as she realized what he meant "I am too juggie but I need you to be 100% ready and okay with doing it.." she says as he looks down. "Are you?" She asked as he lets out a sigh "to be completely honest I still get nightmares about that night sometimes but..my body is telling me I'm ready..for you" he says as she gives him a look and he returns an assuring grin before kissing her...
