Saving Her Innocence

11

Bettys POV
I sighed as I stared at a Jughead saying "so...are you gonna go?"

He said "I...you're joking right?"

I gulped and my mom said "get out."

I said "mom calm down..."

I looked at Jughead saying "no...his name is Tyler...he was born June 29th...of this year..."

He scoffed lightly and I said "you can go..."

He started going to the door and I frowned as he stepped out of my house.

He turned around saying "Betty..."

I said "you left...goodnight."

I shut the door and held Tyler tightly as I began crying and held him tighter as my mom hugged me and held me tightly.

I held her as she said "I know it's hard...I know it hurts you...but you had to..."

I said "I didnt..."

She said "Betty...what would've you done? Waited four more months? Than argue about why did you lie for so much longer."

I cried as Tyler began waking up. He began crying and I went to my room. I was in my room as I breastfed Tyler.

I asked him "I had too no? If he wasn't gonna accept you...then I have to be the mature adult. Your mother."

I sniffled saying "but it sucks so much..."

I cried and he stopped to look at me. I held his hand and rubbed his tiny belly. I set him down in his crib and began crying into my arms on my desk as I held my head. Later around 11 PM I was eating some food as my mom worked on her computer and the doorbell rang. She was confused and I gulped as I held Tyler's small bassinet as she walked over and opened the door and I saw Jughead. I got up and he walked inside and came up to me.

"We should talk..." he told me.

I gulped and nodded as I said "we can go up to my room if you'd like?"

He nodded and I smiled and I walked over grabbing Tyler and went ahead. I set Tyler down in his crib in my room.

He said "woah..."

I gulped and he said "sorry..."

I shook my head as he sat on my bed.

I sat on my desk as I said "ask me anything..."

He said "where's the kids father? Aren't you...did he leave you?"

I said "oh how I wish..."

He was confused and I said "October 31st of last year...I was followed...and I was kidnapped... and than I was raped..."

He looked at me saying "and that's why you..."

I nodded and he said "and you kept the kid!?"
