Baby project: a bughead story

The last five months and now

5 months later

Jughead POV

It's Christmas time. 'The most wonderful time of year!'

It's been five months now, since all babies had been born, since we last heard anything important about the case of Abby and Hal.

In these last five months some important things have happened:

-both Juliet and Lucas have eaten soft, baby food and liked it
-Archie has been allowed back and we are all really close
-jelly finally told Ricky her feelings and they are dating (I gave him a hell of a talk)
-Charles has grown closer to the family

Yeah so some positive things have happened to us all. But still no word on Abby or Hal.

"Jug! Jughead!" Betty calls
"Yeah!" I say running into the nursery
"Look!" Betty says pointing at Juliet trying to stand up in her cot with the help of the bars
"Oh wow. Cmon jules you can do it!"
And......
She does it!!
"Yay!! You did it jules!" We both beam and praise her

"What's happening here?" Reg says coming in
"Juliet stood up for the first time!" I say
"Wow! Next she'll be rejecting a guy!" Reg says
I glare at him, "she better be!"

"Well I'm gonna go and get my Christmas shopping in and then meet V at pops later after she's had her meeting." Betty says
"Okay we'll be safe, you taking Juliet?"
"Yeah why not, she can help me."

Betty picks up Juliet and gives me a hug and kiss them leaves.

"Hey so Archie's coming over now to watch football, you wanna join jug?" Reggie asks
"Nah I've got to meet with Charles I'm helping him with something."
"Ah okay."

I go to meet Charles, I'm helping with the case. I guess you could say I have a good eye for noticing things that are weird and I was the person who spent most time with Abby.

Betty POV

I took Juliet out today for Christmas shopping. These first 6months of her life then especially these last five she's grown up so much, I mean she's not talking but she's sitting up on her own, standing, eating baby food not just milk.

I go first to buy the girls some little bits with mini personalisation on them. Polly and the twins I get some outfits and gift cards and some personalised sets for her.
Then the boys, reg, Kev, fangs and Archie. Hmmm what to get them?

I get Kev and fangs a tv show box set, Archie a new football and some expensive drinks.
Reggie a mini football set for him to play with Lucas and a personalised jumper with bulldogs on it, and I get Lucas a personalised bulldogs outfit.

Now Jughead, what do I get him. He likes:
-writing
-me
-drink, no I'm not getting him a drink

Writing it is, what can I get him though, he's been wanting to get back into writing and he's old fashioned. Maybe.....a.......type writer. That could work! Yeah!

Jughead POV
After helping Charles I go shopping myself for Betty's gift, she said she'll shop for the others gifts for both of us asking as I buy family gifts.

First JB, erm. Well she likes a good joke so I'll first get a bag of jellybeans. Wait, that's actually a good idea. I get her a hamper of sweets. Lots of just junk and crappy food. I have another idea which I add to her gift, there's a new edition of mincraft so I'll buy her that too

Okay jelly is done next Alice and my dad. Maybe some wine or whatever parents like, rum? Ugh this is hard.

I buy lots of random expensive drinks for them and some chocolate for Alice and a set of mini guy gifts for my dad.

I decide to get Charles something too, he's been really good and helpful and I consider him family. I get him a gift card and some drinks and junk food.

I'm gonna get Juliet a little something too. It took a while but I got her a big teddy bear with her name on it, not too big but it'll be like a comfort for her in the night.

Now Betty. I was thinking something special, like jewellery. It took even longer because it had to be perfect. I found a locket, I asked for a picture of Juliet and me and her inside and a message,

Our little family

I think she'll like it.

I leave and go back to reggie and Archie watching the football game.

"Hey guys! How's the score?"
"We're winning so far a couple more minutes." Archie reply's
"Nice. Well I'm gonna go and wrap some gifts I have, for family only, Betty had your guys gifts."
"Thanks jug!" They both say

I go and start wrapping or set up nicely in jelly's case.

Once I'm done I put them all back in the car and drive over to the house to drop them of a week early from Christmas

"Hello! I bring gifts!" I say entering
"Gifts!?" Is all I hear and jelly comes running down with Ricky following
"Well here jelly, merry early Christmas!"
"Omg thank you jug I love this so much! Wait! You didn't! The new mincraft special edition! AHH THANK YOU SO MUCH AHHH!" She squeals and hugs me and her and Ricky rush back up stairs

"Is that gift giving I hear?" My dad says coming in
I give them their gifts then go back home waiting for Betty to come back from her shopping day then with dinner for me from pops.

Veronica POV
Betty's late. She haven't texted of anything, Reggie has got Lucas now so I can look for her quicker if somethings happened and she has Juliet which isn't good.

I run out of pops and run up and down different streets till I hear a baby cry.

I run over and see Juliet, in her stroller, gifs hanging on the handle but no Betty just her phone on the floor. What's happened to her?!

Just as I calm jules down, I see her phone ring and the user id reads,
