Betty POV. (Whilst fainted)
Betty is getting some flashforwards in her head that won't exactly happen as long as she's there with the baby in it's life.

Flash forward to baby's first birthday

"Hey baby! Your one today! One!" Jug says to a baby, who seems to be one
"Nuuum." The baby reply's back
"Ooo almost you first word, can you say dada. Dada." Jug says trying to get out the baby's first word, this is his baby then
"Mmmmmmm mama mama." The baby says
Jug looks upset now, where's the mum?
"Your mama, Betty," me? Where am I? "She isn't here with us, she's, watching over you though, she's always with us in here baby." He says touching the baby's heart. I died? Did I die at birth?
"Mama. Mama."
"Betty would have been happy."
I notice the room they are in, a trailer, did he not have enough money to provide

Black everything goes black
Then another memory

"Happy 10th birthday Juliet!" Jug says bringing in a cake, a pretty small cake, he's still in the trailer.
"Thanks dad." A girl comes out of a room with a perfect low ponytail and a beanie on.
"Happy birthday to you!!! Happy birthday to you!!! Happy birthday to Juliet! Happy birthday to you! Make a wish!"
She closes her eyes and blows out the candles
"Yay!" Jug says
"How about dad, cake now.... burgers from pops after?" Juliet says excitedly
"You are definitely my child and yea of course!" He takes out two forks and they start eating the cake like that
"Who's my mum and where is she? What happened to her?" Juliet says
"Well this day had to come. Her name was Betty Cooper, love of my life she was. She was great at everything, she even had a signature ponytail like you. She loved Nancy Drew books, also like you and she loved handing lots of fun with her friends. We were really excited to have you, but I was still in college so I was only occasionally around. She was working very hard to support us and I was too, and she had some issues and one night, she felt pain, and passed out. When we got to the hospital she was still passed out and only 20 weeks pregnant with you. After a few hours she slipped into a coma, all the way till they had to cut you out of her at 37 weeks where she grew weak in the coma and she died after that. I dropped out of college, worked a real job, that didn't pay much but was enough for the two of us. Your auntie Veronica was best friends with her and Cher and Toni. Kev and fangs and Reggie two. We were all a what she liked calling it and your uncle fangs, the 'sleepover squad'."
"She sound amazing. Is it my fault she isn't here."
"No of course not, she wanted the best for you and she was amazing. Well burgers now?"
"Yes!"
"I love you always jules!"
"Love you always dad!"

So I slipped into a coma when all that happened, what's gonna happen if I don't wake up?

Black, everything goes black again

"Dad! I can't tell you about it!" Juliet whines on one side of the door
"Why we talk about everything?" Jug says on the other side of a door
" I just wish mum was here to help me!"
Jug looked hurt by that but he eventually understood what it was, "do you want Veronica?"
"Yeah, please dad."
"Okay jules. I love you always you know that right!?"
"I love you too dad, now please get Veronica."

I look at Juliet, red blotches on her trousers, oh. I could have been there to help her. But I'm not.

"Juliet Veronica is here!"
"Hey jules. Ah I see. It's fine, we all go through it." Veronica says, helping jules by giving her supply's.
"Thanks V." That's what I called her
"It's okay, you can call me whenever you know that, I may have Camila, who is still young, but I will always help you too."
"I'll be helping Camila when she gets to 13 then I guess."
"You will be, your like sisters you two are."
"I want a sister. But dad swore to never date after my mum."
"Huh did he now. Well they were what we called it, endgame and they even had their couple name bughead."
"Bughead? That's weird what yours and Reggie's?"
"Veggie. I don't like vegetables but that's our one."
"Hahah yours is named after the worst type of food!" Juliet shouts through the bathroom door
"That it is." Veronica says laughing

Black
This time I know I need to wake up, so Veronica doesn't have to leave her child for mine, so jug lives in that trailer and have the your mums dead talk. So I can be there for Juliet whenever, and jug and me can be a team with this and I don't leave him with a baby.

I open my eyes, "Polly?!"

(After that whole conversation I'm not writing again.)

"It's okay mum." Polly reply's
"Betty! Do you feel faint, any pain are you okay!?" My mum says
"I'm fine mum but please calm a bit, I'm fine, where's  the doctor, I want to speak privately to him."
"Okay." Fp says and they all leave as a doctor comes in
"Ah miss Cooper your up. I was a bit worried."
"Doctor Will the medication hurt my baby?"
"No it won't. Now I can do the scan you were meant to have as a gender scan. Do you want to find out?"
"Could you put it in a envelope and I'll take it for a gender reveal which will probably not happen today but soon."
"Okay."

After he checks my baby, which is healthy, he then gave the envelope to me. I put it on the side and the doctor leaves.

"Hey." A voice says from outside
"Jug!" I reply with
