Broken Arm-Veronica x Jughead

Jughead and Veronica were laying in bed together, Veronica reading a book and Jughead typing a paper on his laptop. Closing her book with a sigh, Veronica got out of bed and went into the bathroom. There was a clunk of the toilet seat, then a loud, terrifying thud, and a cry of pain.

Alarmed, Jughead sprang out of bed and rushed into the bathroom to find Veronica laying on the floor, clutching her arm.

"Oh my god!" Jughead exclaimed in horror, kneeling down beside his wife, "What happened?"

Veronica grimaced. "I was standing on the toilet, trying to kill a spider that was on the ceiling," She explained, "But I lost my balance and fell and landed really hard on my arm, and I think it's broken."

"Okay, okay," Jughead said frantically, "We need to get you to the hospital." Veronica nodded, her face scrunched up in pain, and with Jughead's help she pushed herself into a sitting position, then stood up.

The rest of the night went by in a bit of a blur for the husband and wife. They waited for almost an hour in the waiting room of the E.R., then they were in the E.R. for a couple more hours while Veronica got x-rays and was checked by multiple doctors before finally getting a cast put on.

Finally, they arrived home, with Jughead exhausted and Veronica high and loopy on pain medication. They walked into the house with Jughead's arm anchored firmly around Veronica's waist as he steered his wife to their bedroom.

"Okay, I'm gonna go to the bathroom," Jughead told her, "Try and get comfortable in bed with your arm, okay?"

Veronica nodded, then giggled, "Don't fall off the toilet!" Jughead grimaced and muttered under his breath about no more pain meds, "You giggling, loopy idiot."

It didn't take long for Veronica to be out like a light, and Jughead fell asleep soon after.

The next day was a nightmare for both Jughead and Veronica. Veronica was in horrible pain, laying on the couch, downing pain medication. Jughead hated seeing Veronica so miserable, and was being driven crazy by the effects the medicine had on Veronica. She was giggly and silly, and kept singing Madonna and then talking in Lady Gaga lyrics.

"Hey Jug!" Veronica called from the couch. Jughead was in the kitchen, making waffles.

"What?!" He yelled back, already anticipating the Lady Gaga.

"Jug, I'm your biggest fan, I'll follow you until you love me."

"Great." Jughead replied, trying not to laugh. "But you don't have to follow me, I already love you."

Veronica's medication-induced giggles began again, and Jughead rolled his eyes, before entering the living room with a plateful of waffles.
