*Christmas eve*

*narrator's POV*
Betty and Jughead take Olivia to see Santa at the mall. O"mama i wanna see Santa." B"i know bunny but we have to wait in line because all of these other kids want to see him too." O"it feels so long, I can't wait."

*a couple minutes later*
Olivia is siting on Santa's lap. They took pictures. S"what do you want for Christmas?" O"well I have everything that I want, my mama is finally happy and I get to have baby sister or brother soon, I dont know when but mama said, and I finally have a dad, he makes my mama so happy, so maybe some more dollies so I get to play with them with the babies." S"thats so sweet, of course Santa will get you some dollies, I'll make sure of it." O"thank you santa." S"of course darling."

*2pm*
They go home and do some decorating and baking. Betty and Jughead are watching her put some of the ornaments on the tree. B"every year she puts the star on the tree, of course I always had to hold her up so she could do it."

B"its time to put the star up bunny." O"yaay!" Jughead gives her the star and lifts her up and she puts it on. B"perfect."

*3PM*
They are baking cookies and Olivia is siting on the counter helping them. Jughead throws some flour at Betty. B"hey, why did you do that?" Jughead shrugs. Betty then throws flour at Jughead. J"oh ok, so that's how it's gonna be, Olivia." Olivia throws four at Betty. B"bunny you're on daddy side?" Olivia smiles. J"yes because she loves daddy." Jughead takes Olivia of the counter, knowing what Betty was about to do. J"run!" Jughead ran with Olivia. Olivia laughing and giggling. Betty ran after them and caught Olivia. O"daddy help." Jughead smiled and shrugged his shoulders at her. Betty laughs and put Olivia down. O"Daddy why didn't you help?" J"your mama is scary." Betty smiles. O"yeah I know." They finished the cookies. O"santa will love these cookies." B"he sure will because they were made by you." O"i want some cookies mama." Olivia wines. B"first of all thats not how you ask-" O"can I have some cookies pwease?" B"one cookie, because we are going to have dinner soon." O"ok mama." Betty gives her a cookie. O"yuumm!" Olivia says with her mouth full of cookies.

B"its bedtime Olivia." O"but I don't want to go to sleep." B"come on Olivia we are not playing this game tonight." O"i don't want to go to bed." B"Olivia Grace, it's time for bed!" O"no." Betty looks at Jughead in anger. J"if you don't go to bed Santa won't come and you won't have any presents." Olivia just up and goes to her bed, Jughead tucks her in and gives her a kiss. J"good night princess." He says as she falls asleep. Jughead goes to his room to find Betty in bed. B"thank you, she is a pain sometimes and the stress isn't good for the babies." J"you're welcome."
