Betty POV

I'm doing homework which sucks. But I have to graduate. Yes, the schools letting me graduate with the rest of the class. Which doesn't really bother me.

I hear Dylan coming to my room. I look up and see her head peeking in from the crack in the door.

"What are you doing," I say. She smiles at me and crawls into the room. She's holding the teddy bear Jug got her the other day.

Things with Jug are kinda complicated. We're dating but we're not. I didn't want to run back into a relationship because I didn't want it to be forced cause of Dylan. So we have an open relationship type thing. But nobody knows except for me and him. We promised not to tell anyone.

I pick Dylan up. "Hi baby"

"Mmm dada," she says and clutches the bear to her chest.

"I'm not your dada," I say tickle her. She screams and rolls over.

"Where are your clothes you dad's taking us somewhere when he gets here." I pick her up and we walk to her room. I sit her down on the rocking chair and pick up her outfit off the floor.

"Okay time to get dressed" I pick her up and sit her down on the changing table. One thing Dylan hates is clothes. She always takes them off and it's a struggle getting them on. I pull her onesie over her head. She starts to fuss.

" I know, I know but you can't go out naked," I say. I put her shorts on. I'm not gonna even try to do her hair. because one she also hates it and two her is is like Jug's except it's lighter.

I put a headband on her head. She whines and tries to pull it off.

"Baby you look cute" I pick her up.

"What's all this fussing about," Jughead says walking in.

"She doesn't want to be dressed"

"Dylan you look so cute" I give Dylan to him and he kisses her cheeks and she forgets about the headband.

"You ready to go?" He asks me.

"Yeah, but where are we going" we walk out of Dylan's room and downstairs.

"It's a surprise, Betty," he says.

"Fine"

"Why are we at Toni and Sweet Pea's apartment?" I ask. He gives me a look.

"Fine I'll stop with the questions"

"Come on," he says and gets out of the car. He takes Dylan out of her car seat.

"Hi baby" he coos.

"Dada" she smiles. We walk inside the apartment building. We take the elevator to the third floor.

This isn't Toni and Sweet Peas floor. Jughead pulls some keys out of his pocket.

"Wait Jug is this your apartment?" He smirks at me and unlocks the door.

"Welcome to my new home," Jughead says and I walk inside. The place is empty except for a fridge and stove. It has a balcony.

"Wow Jug"

"It's nice right?" He smiles.

"Yeah"

"It's a two-bedroom apartment. I was going to be on the same floor as Toni, Sweet Pea, and Fangs but I couldn't get a two-bedroom."

"It's great Jug" I smile.

"Hey I was thinking...maybe you'd move in with me?" Jug asks.

I sigh "Ronnie beat you to it by a day"

"Doesn't Ronnie live in New York?"

"No, well she was in the process of moving here but then she went into labor and moved back in with her parents for a little. But she's moved in now and asked me to move in with her and be two hot single moms raising kids like badasses. But maybe in a couple of years if your offer still stands?"

"Of course you're always welcome here" he smirks and leans down and kisses me.

"No," Dylan says and pushes my head.

"Hey don't say no to me, I get to kiss mama all I want"

"No" she smiles and Jughead kisses her cheeks.

Jughead POV

Today is graduation day. Yesterday was the last day of school so I'm officially free. I'm fully moved into my apartment which is good. Betty and I have worked out a schedule for which day we can have Dylan. I get her Thursday through Saturday and Betty gets her Sunday through Tuesday and on Wednesday we spend the day together cause Betty says it's good for a child to spend time with both parents.

"Betty hurry up I need pictures!" Alice yells.

"So what are you doing once you graduate?" Archie asks.

"I'm not going to college but your Dad is trying to talk me into publishing my book"

"You should I mean you get money from that. It's could help with Dylan and your apartment"

"I know I'm considering it I just need to finish it what about you? What are you doing after graduation"

"I'm playing football and I'm going to NYU," he says.

"Good for you man" I smile. Dylan squeals and uses the table to help her stand up.

"Hey, why are always wanting to steal the attention huh?" Archie asks her and pokes her neck. She laughs and crawls away.

"I'm ready, now can you stop yelling at me," Betty says. She looks gorgeous in that dress.

"Mmmma...ma" Dylan mumbles and raises her arms at betty.

Betty Picks her up "What's up baby. Were uncle Archie and dada smothering you"

"Hey, I don't smother her," I say and stand up.

"You literally smother her in kisses every day"

"I do it cause I love her"

"Same she's my little niece"

"Come on outside time for pictures," Alice says and we walk outside.

"Elizabeth Cooper" Mr. Weatherbee calls out on the microphone people in the audience clap and Betty smiles and stands up.

I'm really proud of Betty she literally went through a terrible breakup because of me and got pregnant because of me and still graduated. That's amazing, she's amazing and I love her for that.

Mr.Weatherbee calls more names and I start to get hungry. When is this going to be over?

"Forsythe Pendelton Jones the third" He calls and I stand up. I hear my dad start yelling and I internally scream. I take my diploma and take pictures then I walk back to my seat.

"Dada!" I hear Dylan yells and people in the audience laughs.
