Okay so this chapter is a little dark, but I hope you like it. I'll try and update as much as possible. Also, sorry the chapter is short, I just wanted this one to end so that I could create the next one in Betty's POV. Another thing, if you are triggered by self harm, this chapter contains mentions of it, so read at your own risk.
Jughead's POV:
I used to be strong, but now I am weak. I used to not care, but now I do. I used to have someone who loved me, but now I do not. The day Betty Cooper broke up with me I snapped. I didn't leave the house. I drank away my sorrows, just like my father had done all those years ago. I dropped out of school. I lost contact with my foster family. I didn't speak to anyone, not even Archie. After not attending my father's trial, I told the serpents that I wanted out. I started piercing my skin every single day. The scarlet blood that trickled down my wrists was comforting. For some reason I liked doing it. It comforted me, and hell, back then I really needed comforting.
On July 11th, I lost everything. I had left the trailer to go get food at a time that I thought no one would recognise me, when I saw them. Betty Cooper, the love of my life, sitting in a booth at Pop's kissing some raven haired, teenager. She had moved on. She wasn't sad, or alone like I was. She was just fine. I couldn't take it. I turned to leave the diner, the neon lights suddenly too bright and flashy, when I heard a voice from behind me call, "Jughead. Is that you?". I couldn't bring myself to turn round so I simply nodded, suddenly aware that I wasn't even wearing my beanie. I didn't deserve to wear that crown, but I felt lost without it. "Oh my god. What happened to you?". In that moment I wished more than anything to be able to answer the question, but the thing is, I didn't know that answer. So I left. I went to the trailer and cried. I cried on the way there. I cried until I couldn't cry anymore. I was no longer hungry. I was no longer anything.
