Veronica woke up to Sweet Pea shaking behind her, she turned around, his face was pale and he looked sick.

"Guys." Veronica whispered to everyone there, most of them got up, Veronica stands up so they could see Sweet Pea.

"He looks terrible.." Lily mumbled, her voice cracking slightly, Sweet Pea whined, a noise no one thought they would hear from him.

"Please.." He whispered jerking slightly, "I need something anything." Sweet Pea's eyes were closed and he was seating and shivering at the same time.

Fangs slowly walked over crouching down and looking at Jughead, "Hey Pea, open your eyes, look at me." Fangs said patting Sweet Pea's shoulder.

"No." Sweet Pea mumbled his body jerking again, this wasn't a regular drug withdraw, something else was wrong, or maybe JJ has this effects.

No one has really gone through withdraw of JJ it's to addictive, yet here Sweet Pea was trying his best.

"It hurt Fangs, it hurts." Sweet Pea sobbed gripping Fang hard enough to bruise him, "You're doing so good Pea just two more days tops, mkay? You're going to be." Fangs told him, "I need something." Sweet Pea finally opened his eyes.

They were red and his pupils were blown like crazy, "Fangs get be something, FUCK!" Sweet Pea yelled his fist banging on Fangs shoulder, fangs winced and jerking away from him.

Everyone looked at each other having a silent conversation, "Get him some water." Jughead said, Fangs nodded and walked away while Toni walked over to Sweet Pea.

"Please leave me alone, just leave, leave, fuck leave." Sweet Pea demanded, they looked at each other, "We'll be back in 20." Toni mumbled, they all walked out.

--

They got back and Sweet Pea was dressed in something different, his hair was wet and he had a bottle of whiskey in his hands, "AYE!" Lily screamed pointing at the bottle, Fangs rushed over snatching it.

"It's not drugs dammit give the shit back." Sweet Pea reached up to grab it, "Stop Sweets, drink the water." Veronica said sitting next to him, he shoved his head back, his body was still shaking, not as bad but visible none the less.

"I'm sorry guys, you should've just left me here to die, not come check up on me, it's not like I'm important." Sweet Pea chuckled the last part, he looked so out of it.

"That is not true!" Toni screamed slightly, Fangs, Jughead, Veronica and, Lily agreeing.

"You're all liars, you left me when I was a baby." Sweet Pea started pointing to his mother, "You left me for Cheryl and you left me for Kevin." He said again pointing to Toni and Fangs.

"You never even liked me." Sweet Pea groaned pointing at Jughead, "And you, hell do you even listen when I talk or am I just your friend, a friend that inly listens to you and your problems?" Sweet Pea asked looking at Veronica.

All of them were lost for words, they never realized how they had all let him down, how they all knew what he said about them was true.

Jughead shook his head, "I do like you Sweet Pea, I like you, there's just something your mom and my dad don't want you to know." Jughead said looking down.

Lily snapped his eyes towards Jughead shaking her head, "Don't do this Jughead." She warned him, Sweet Pea was confused, beyond annoyed at this point, "For fucks sake spit it out Jones." 

Jughead sighed, "FP or my dad is also your dad.." Sweet Pea's eyes shot wide before he chuckled, "You're a fucking liar my mom would've told mem y dad was still alive, righ-" 

Sweet Pea's eyes landed on his mothers horrified face, 'WHAT THE HELL?! I'VE BEEN IN THE SERPENTS SINCE I WAS A KID AND FP NEVER NOT ONCE THOUGHT HE SHOULD TELL ME?" Sweet Pea screamed, he was in pain mentally and physically now.

"Call your fucking dad, Jones." Sweet Pea growled not taking his eyes off of his mother, "NOW!" Sweet Pea barked once Jughead didn't move.

Jughead toke his phone out and hit his dad's contact, "Hey uh dad, get to Sweet Pea's trailer, I'll tell you when you get here.." Jughead started, there was silence for a second, "Love you two bye." Jughead hung up and nodded at Sweet Pea.

"Ew wait, you're my brother?" Sweet Pea asked shaking his head and looked at Jughead, "Why'd you say 'ew'?" Jughead asked offended.

Fangs and Toni snicker, "He use to have a crush on you." Fangs said bursting out into laughter, "I'm going to throw up." Sweet Pea mumbled, "I feel like Cheryl fucking Blossom." He said again.

Everyone in the room laughed besides Toni, "Not funny dude." Toni said rolling her eyes.

--

Finally FP got to the trailer and opened the door and saw Jughead, Veronica, Lily, Fangs, Toni, and Sweet Pea talking, Veronica and Lily sitting on the couch.

"What's up everyone?" FP asked, than his eyes landed on Sweet Pea, who was sweating and shaking slightly but he also looked angry.

No one said anything but sweet Pea stood up and walked over to FP grabbing the collar of his jacket, "Boy get you're hands off of me, this isn't how you treat your king." FP growled.

"Why not.. dad?" Sweet Pea asked tilting his head slightly, FP's gaze landed on Jughead and than Lily before going back to Sweet Pea, "Look I can expl-", "I don't want to fucking hear it." Sweet Pea growled letting go of FP.

"I always use to come to you FP, crying and telling you I wish someone cared about me, wishing that I had a fucking family and all along you were my dad, my fucking dad FP." Sweet Pea shook his head, his body jerking again.

He rushed down the hallway into the bathroom throwing up, Everyone ran after him in the small hallway, "What's wrong with him?" FP asked, "He's going through JJ withdraw, aka the drug." Fangs whispered.

FP looked back at Sweet Pea's shaking form, harder than before, "Please." Sweet Pea whispered putting his knee's into his chest, "Fangs." Sweet Pea whispered again looking up, Fangs walked in and shut the door on the others.

"Hey man, you're alright, you're strong, you got this, you're doing so well already." Fangs smiled while patting his shoulder.

They w ere glad that they had each other to lean on, everyone needed a strong friendship, even if earlier Sweet Pea told them all his insecurities about them not caring about him, it didn't change the fact that he loved them all.
