When the heart bleeds ~ Bughead

Chapter 15

"Betty? Are you ready?"

Alice was handing her luggage to FP when she called out to her daughter, who was running down the stairs.

"Yes, here's my bag."

The girl said as she too handed her luggage to her mother's now official boyfriend.

"Good, we need to get going-"

The witch was interrupted by the ringing of the front doorbell.

"I'll get it."

Betty went and opened the door to see a relieved Kevin.

"Thank God. I thought you guys were gone. I wanted to say goodbye to you."

He explained.

The young blonde just hugged him as she heard the hum of the cars and motorcycles.

A few seconds later Cheryl, Jason and Toni got out of one car, Archie and Reggie got out of the other one and Fangs and Sweet Pia got off their bikes.

They all greeted each other. You could tell they were all very tense.

Fangs and Kevin kissed in greeting and Tony and Cheryl hugged Betty tightly.

"We should get ready. The ball is in New York and that's a 2 hour flight."

Explained Betty now, the others just nodded and they all entered the house.

"How nice to have you guys here. Kevin? What are you doing here?"

Alice seemed very surprised by the appearance of the only human of the circle of friends.

"I just wanted to say goodbye to all of you."

Explained the sad looking Kevin.

"We'll be back in a few days."

Fangs assured him, while he took Kevin in his arms.

Every single member of the circle of friends had always been very excited about the relationship between the two.

„Guys we really have to get going otherwise we'll miss our flight."

FP interrupted all of them.

Kevin and Fangs were saying a last goodbye while all the other sat into a total of 4 cars.

Clargson, Elijah, Klaus and Ashton in the first one after a long time fo arguing for Betty to come with them.

Veronica, Cheryl, Toni and Betty decided to get in the second car together as they wanted some girl time.

Jason, Fangs, Sweet Pea and Jughead took the third car while FP, Alice, Hermione, Tall Boy and Hodgeye used the fourth one.

After driving for about an hour they finally arrived at the nearest Airport.

Everybody took their luggage and walked into the building after a long time of preparing to board the plane they finally got to the waiting hall.

All of them were still really tense and nobody really said anything.

Last night they called Mike so he and Jake knew they were coming but they didn't have the chance to tell them they were coming with the serpent pack.

After some time they got to board the plane.

With the money Hermione and Alice had they bought business class tickets for everyone but because of that they couldn't really sit next to each other.

The flight lasted only 2 hours but for Betty it was way too long.

For her the last few days were torture and she can't wait to finally fulfill the plan and get her life back.

As soon they got off the plane they ordert caps and drove to the hotel they were staying in.

Mike told them to stay there as he, Jake and his mate loved it so much and knew the owner.

It was a pretty fancy and expansive hotel but the serpent pack had a lot of money.

Jughead went to the front desk to get the keys to the hotel rooms.

Cheryl and Veronica tried to cheer Betty up, but even they knew it was useless.

They were all very worried about what would happen as long as they were in public.

Jughead joined the rest of the group:

"Here are the keys. A room for Dad and Alice."

He handed his father a key.

"One for Elijah, Ashton, Clargson and Klaus."

He held out the key to the four brothers.

"Cheryl and Toni."

Toni grabbed a key and pulled Cheryl with her.

"Fangs and Sweet Pea."

The two also took a key.

"Archie and Reggie.

Veronica, Hermione and Jason each have their own room.

Hodgeye and Tall Boy.

And me and Betty.

I hope this works out for all of you."

Jughead inquired, putting an arm around Betty.

Everyone nodded and headed for the elevator.

All the rooms were on the 4th floor, so their paths didn't change until they reached the doors.

Betty and Jughead entered their hotel room.

"Are you alright?"

The soon to be Alpha asked the blonde.

"I guees. I just hope it's over soon."

She answered him while sitting down on the huge king-sized bed.

"I hope so too. But we're in New York so let's go and see the city a bit before we have to see Hal."

He tried to make her feel better.

"You know I've lived here for a while."

Betty smiled at her boyfriend.

"Really? You did? Where else did you live?"

Jug asked her to get her mind of the bad things happening.

"Yes. We stayed at a lot of different countries but also New York, California, France, England and a few other places I can't remember because I was so young."

She smiled at the memories.

But she was interrupted by the hotel's phone.

"I'll take it."

The blonde stood up from her comfy position on the bed.

Jughead just nodded while putting the luggage away.

"Mike."

Betty exclaimed happily that's when Jug's head turned around.

He didn't like her talking to him but he had to let her be even though he was madly jealous.
