Secrets I Hate

Bettys POV
I smiled as I ran and hugged my dad, he laughed holding me saying "oh I've missed you Betty."

I smiled saying "I'm so happy your home..."

He laughed and rubbed my back as my mom said "Hal..."

He smiled and went into his bag and pulled out a bracelet and said "I was coming and I thought of you when I saw this Alice, has your birthstone and all."

She smiled and he clipped it on her wrist and I smiled saying "and I look up to you both for true love..."

My dad smiled and he kissed my mom and she sighed and nodded.

I squealed out "this is gonna be the best weekend ever!"

I jumped up and down like a child and hugged them and smiled.

When we got home he sighed and said "I'm gonna get my stuff in our room Alice."

She said "yeah of course..."

I said "I'll get them upstairs, you two need the alone time."

My mom laughed and my dad smiled as I went upstairs. When I did my phone rang and I answered.

"Hey Juggie..."

He laughed saying "Juggie, cute. So your dads back and you are?"

I said "I'm the happiest girl in the whole entire world."

I sighed and said "I want you to meet him..."

He said "really?"

I gulped and said "I don't know...I just...I have to keep you away..."

He sighed and I said "but when I remember that...it goes all the way down."

I frowned and sat on my parents bed saying "I see my parents and how in love they are...I want that..."

I gulped and said "if I'm gonna be honest...I think I should tell you something..."

Suddenly I saw the door open and I hung up and saw my dad and he said "sweetheart you okay?"

I frowned and he sat down and I said "don't tell mom...I don't want her to be disappointed..."

He sighed and said "what's wrong?"

I sniffled and said "I have been seeing this boy..."

He said "okay..."

I gulped saying "that's all...I just want to be happy like you and mom."

He smiled saying "trust me Elizabeth, when you know he's the one, he's the one...when I met your mother I fell instantly...she did too and we've been strong since High School."

I smiled and he smiled and I gulped saying "I look up to you both so much for everything..."

He said "hey...no sadness. I'm here for my happy beautiful girls."

I laughed and he hugged me, I held him saying "I love mom more."

He laughed saying "not a chance sweetheart."

I smiled and hugged him again. That night as we had family dinner I said "alright so...mom I know you are...not all about me having a boyfriend but I have one."

She gasped and said "really!? Is it Archie?"

I sighed and said "no...but I'm with someone but I'm nervous how you two will react..."
