Betty POV
I take a crying Juliet off polly and rock her back and forth.
"Dad what the hell is he talking about?" Jug says
"Mum is there something me and jug should know?" I say still trying g to calm Juliet down
"Charles.... is it really you? I'm so sorry." My mum says hugging him
"Yeah Alice who is this guy, look just be honest I won't be mad." His dad says
"Erm everyone needs to sit for this."
Jug takes Juliet off me and stands with her rocking her whilst I sit down.

"When me and Fp where in high school, we dated and some things happened between us. I became pregnant and I gave my baby up for adoption only telling your father Betty. I named him Charles, and he came back. It's no coincidence you took this case then." My mum explains
"Alice, he's mine then......" Fp says
"Yeah I'm really sorry Charles for abandoning you, I was young and stupid. And you Fp for never telling you."
"It's okay Alice." He hugs her
"Well I'm glad that didn't add any unnecessary drama, I'm sorry for bursting this in you guys though." Charles says
"It's okay..." I say
"Oh congrats Betty and jug on your baby by the way." He says
"Thanks." Jug says shaking his hand

"Hold up guys!" Jelly says over all our voices
"What?!" We all say
"Am I the only one seeing this?" Jelly yells
"No I know what she's thinking." Polly says
"What?!" Our parents and me and jug say
"Oh you guys are so dumb. If Charles is Betty's half brother and my half brother who is also jugs half brother......"
"Oh sh*t. Jug this is weird." I say
"Erm.... wow uhhhh....." jug says speechless
"Guys it's fine I had my 3rd cousins babies." Polly says
"Third cousins Polly, not half brother!" I point out to her
"It's fine guys, it's just weird thinking about. Look don't break up this family for it. It's not illegal or anything." Charles says
"Okay I mean it's still weird." Fp says

"No we won't break up or anything but what I really want to know is about my dad, will you catch him?" I ask
"We are looking into it. I understand he visited you at you gender reveal?"
"Yeah he said he wanted to visit his grandchild when she's born. So we should be expecting to see him soon. There's something else...." jug explains
"Well every detail helps what is it?" Charles says
"He's working with an ex of mines who's completely obsessed with me. She visited Betty touched her stomach and said, 'so innocent' we didn't know what to think of it." Jug reply's
"Wait you didn't tell me this Betty!" My mum yells
"I didn't think much of it and you would have worried too much!"
"Because I want to protect you!" My mum says sitting next to me and I rest my head in my mother's embrace.
"What the hell does that mean Charles?" Fp asks
"Well we will look into her what is her name?"
"Abby greener. She may have just dropped out of Yale." Jug informs
"Thanks I will assign some agents to station here and where are you both staying?"
"In the Pembroke." I answer
"Okay I'll send some and we'll be in town for a while till he's caught."
"Thank you Charles." My mum says.
"Well mum I'll probably move back in, dad may visit me." Polly says
"That's probably best, unfortunately Betty and jug you can't move back, he'll get suspicious."
"That's okay, this house won't hold all of us." Jug says placing Juliet back in her carrier as she sleeps

"Charles why don't you stay for dinner, talk about yourself, betty and jug too." Fp says
"Dad we can't stay we have to get back but Charles you could come over another day to the Pembroke, I'd like to know you better." Jug says picking up our bags

I hug my mum, Polly, jelly and Fp goodbye. I say bye to Charles then me and jug head back before it gets dark.

"Well uh that was a weird trip. Wasn't expecting to have even more secret siblings but I have two secret siblings and one biological related one. I'm not even gonna consider you and jelly like that, we are a family through Juliet and soon marriage." I say locking my arm in his ad he pushes the pram.
"Yeah it's weird. But yes, you and Juliet are my family, my dad and jelly too, but I love you guys and do everything for you both. Wait till v and reg heard this, that'll prob laugh. Betty your family really likes to have kids with each other." I say laughing
"Yeah well me and Polly didn't know to be fair, and shush about that. I pretend we aren't related, except through Juliet."
"Me too Betts.

We get back and set Juliet down in her nursery for her first night and ours. We go to the living room and reggie and Veronica are there watching tv.

"Hey guys so today was a weird day." Betty says and we explain what happened with Charles.

"Dude! Screwing your half sister! Well done!" Reg says giving jug a high five and he unenthusiastically returning it
"Reg we're not gonna think of it like that." I say
"Okay B your day was more hectic then ours. But we came up a name for our baby boy and we aren't telling till he's here, which should be in about 12 weeks ish."
"Ooo exciting! Well I thought after you have baby we have to have a sleepover, the others are on holiday now."
"Okay yes! That is a great idea. But my parents are coming to Riverdale a week before I have baby which they have booked to induce me early because this boy is a big boy!" V says touching her belly
"Reg, you scared!" Jug says laughing
"Shhhhh he can hear I've already told you he can hear us!" Reg says whispering
"Calm Reginald, I doubt that and if so he'll add in a few cameras." Veronica says smirking
"Ohh I'm gonna die!" Reg says scared
