Betty POV

"Hey baby" I smile and sit down next to Dylan's incubator. We named her Dylan Arden Jones. Jughead picked out her middle name.

I put my arm in the incubator and I lay my hand against her head. She looks like Jug. She has his hair and his lips. She also has his appetite. She's too premature to breastfeed so she has a feeding tube. My nurse said that she should be able to breastfeed in a couple of months.

I feel terrible. Like it's my fault she's in here. And it is, if I was healthier she wouldn't have to be in an incubator for three months.

I take a shuddering breath and I squeeze my eyes shut.

"Hey, you okay?" Someone asks. I look up and it's a girl with Brunette hair. She looks like she could be in college.

I sigh "Not really"

"What's wrong?" She asks and sits down next to me.

"What isn't wrong. I had my daughter, Dylan, at twenty-seven weeks. Now she has to be in here for three months of her life. Her father and I aren't together but we're friends. I don't know if that'll make it harder or awkward. I just feel like...like I already failed as a mother" I say.

"I feel the same way. I had my son, Benji, early but not as early as you did. He was eight months in the womb. He has to stay in the NICU until he can breathe on his own. Also, me and his father aren't together. He dumped me when he found out that I like girls. It wasn't like I cheating on him or anything. But a week after that I found out I was pregnant. I never told him. But his sister found out from my Instagram and she told him." She says.

"How did he react?" I ask

"He was pissed we argued a lot. So lucky that we were at his place because I couldn't get another noise complaint. We aren't on good terms. That's why I'm not with Benji right now because he and his mom are looking at him." She says. Thank god jughead was supportive about this.

"Oh my gosh, I just realized I never got your name. I'm Veronica Lodge but you can call me Ronnie" Veronica says.

"I'm Betty Cooper," I say.

"Guess what Betty Cooper?"

"What?"

"We are going to get through motherhood together" Veronica grabs.

"Thanks" I smile and I lay my head on her shoulder.

"So when was little Dylan here born"

"She was born the on the tenth"

"Of this month?" She asks and I nod my head.

"Benji was born on the sixth, oh my gosh they're going be best friends," Ronnie says and I laugh.

Veronica walks into my room. "Hey, your mom let me in."

Ronnie and I have been getting really close during the past weeks

"So this is my room" I smile and she sits on the edge of my bed.

"Gives off teen girl vibes"

"Hey, I like my room," I say.

"I never said I didn't like it" And my phone dings.

"Ooh is that you're hot baby daddy?" veronica asks and raises her brows.

"No it's my sister Polly, shes says she about twenty minutes away." Polly's coming

"How olds your sister?"

"She's thirty-three and has a kid. My nephew Nicky or Nicholas he's three years old"

"Aww that's cute"

"Not really he really fucking energetic. The kid can't sit down. But he's adorable so that evens it out a little"

"Well that's what we're going to be dealing with soon"

"I know" I laugh.
