The next morning Davina woke up and headed off to Pop's for work after placing an extra amount of makeup on to hide her bruises. When she got there she didn't have any customers for quite some time so instead she drowned her time with cleaning. She got lost in a trance while scrubbing the counter tops and thinking when she felt a large hand lightly touch her back causing her to jump.
"Hey Jug," she said looking away from him.
"Hey..." he said pausing suddenly "D, look at me." he said while touching her chin and turning her face towards him, she tried to hold back but failed. "what the hell happened?" he yelled.
"You know, drunk parents." she sounded annoyed "and crappy makeup," she added in trying to lighten the situation.
"Not funny, you need to tell someone! You need to get out of that house." He said placing head in his hands.
After Jughead and Davina argued for about 10 minutes on what to do about her parents, he finally accepted defeat and went to join Betty at the booth. Since it was slow Pops sent her home early. Davina started walking home hoping she'd run into Sweet Pea, but it didn't happen and she also hadn't heard from him either so that must mean everything was one sided.
A week had gone by since her the thing with her parents happened and since she had seen or heard from Sweet Pea. She had been at dinner with Jug head and had gotten back home a few minutes late due to the diner being so busy, she had walked in to hear her parents arguing and there were beer cans everywhere, she tried to walk as calmly and quietly as possible but she never expected what happened, to happen.
Henry her stepfather came up behind her and grabbed onto her ponytail and ripped her head back and threw her to the floor. He started to kick her repeatedly and when she called for her mom to help her mom just joined in. When they finally stopped she was bruised and beaten pretty bad, so she left the house as fast as she could, her adrenaline pumping high allowing her to run through the pain. She was happy she was wearing a hoodie so that she could stay somewhat dry when the rain started coming down. She knew exactly where she was going and that was Sunnyside Trailer Park. When she got to the Jones' trailer there was no answer and she started to feel all the pain and it was almost unbearable. She slowly made her way to the Wyrm, a place she'd never been before, she slowly opened the door and went to the first person she saw, luckily it was dark so she didn't think anyone noticed her condition.
"H-Hello," she said softly "I'm looking for FP Jones." She said to the tall guy older gentleman who just gave her an annoyed look. "My name is Davina, he knows me I am friends with his son." The man looked at her for a moment and then nudged his head pointing at table in the back where FP was talking to someone. She slowly worked her way over there and stood there for a moment before speaking, his back was turned away from her.
"FP..." she said trying to hide the pain in her voice, she saw his back tense and his head turn quickly around.
"Davina! What the hell are you doing here," he said sharply pulling her away from the publics eyes, unfortunately into lighting so she kept her head down.
"I...I went to the trailer and you weren't there. I just wanted to know if I could stay with you for a few days." She said quietly almost terrified of his response.
He grabbed onto her waist to try and escort her out "I don't know, Kid. What about Ro..." he stopped when he noticed the discoloration of her face and the sudden realization his hand was red.
"What the fuck happened?" He said louder than he meant to and that is when Davina broke down in tears and FP grabbed onto her pulling her into a hug "was it Henry? I'll kill him." He said starting to let go of her before she gripped on tighter, she always felt safe with him.
"Not just Henry...Mom too." she said letting out a loud sob.
"You are not going back to that house, Davina. You can stay with us." FP said softly "I can't leave just yet, but I'll have one of my boys take you back to the trailer and keep you company since Jughead wont be there. SWEET PEA!" he shouted and her heart stopped and she turned her back away from both of them trying to hide. "Take her back to my place, and keep her company until I get back." FP said as his kissed the top of her head and walked away.
It wasn't until they got outside that Sweet Pea noticed who it was he was taking to FP's house. Davina had stopped briefly to pause through a sudden wave of nausea from the pain she was in. "Hey, keep up will y...Davina?" he said his eyes widening "what the hell happened?"
"Nothing, can we just go please." She said harsher than she meant to.
"Can you ride?" He asked softly and when she shrugged and climbed onto the bike behind him.
When they got to FP's she fell on the couch and just stared at the wall thinking about everything. She had never felt more weak in her life, she knew she could beat them both if she tried, but why can't she defend herself against them. She closed her eyes and place her head in her hands and cursed herself.
"Take off your shirt," she heard Sweet Pea demand.
"What?" She said suddenly
"Take...off your shirt. I need to patch you up." He said almost annoyed.
She stood up and hesitantly removed her hoodie and shirt, watching a soft smile form on his mouth as it was happening, until she had was left with just her bra on exposing every bruise and every piece of broken and bleeding skin. She saw his eyes close briefly as if to calm himself down. He then walked over to her and began cleaning her wounds and patching her up.
"Who did this?" He asked softly as if she was a scared deer about to run.
"My parents,"she said looking into his eyes "they do it all the time, this time was just the worst." she was now confused as to why she told him because they only other person who knew besides now him and FP was Jughead. "You're not supposed to care, I'm a Northsider...remember?" She said trying to lighten the mood, but instead he just looked straight at her.
"Shut up," he said quickly and she just rolled her eyes.
"I'm honestly surprised you didn't leave me to the wolves in the middle of the Wyrm's parking lot, when you discovered it was a Northsider in distress." she shrugged before putting her shirt back on.
"Shut. Up." He repeated before standing up and walking away and that's when he realized she took his advice and she just sat there.
"I'm going to take a shower," she said before quickly standing up and walking out of the living room.
"I literally just bandaged you up," he growled
"Oh well, maybe i'll go septic or something." She said before walking into the FP's room where the good shower was.
"Shit!" She yelled "Close your eyes!"
"What?" he shouted back at her
"I forgot clothes, close your eyes." She said before sneaking out of FPs room and running to Jugheads where she kept spare clothes, except this time she only had underwear so she grabbed a pair of black laced panties and a pair of Jugheads sweatpants and ran back to FPs room. Sweet Pea opened his eyes and caught a glimpse of Davina putting on one of FPs flannel shirts causing his heart to race.
"I'm sorry," she said softly entering the living room where Sweet Pea was sitting.
"For what?" he said not looking at her.
"Being stuck with me," she sighed "you can go if you want i'll just tell FP that I wanted to be alone and you were annoying me or something. I know you must be tired of seeing me all the time."
"Shut up." He said yet again.
"Can you stop?" She said annoyed "Can you stop responding to me with shut up? I'm trying to give you an out here, I don't want you to dislike me anymore than you already do."
"Why would you think I disliked you?" He sounded sad now and his eyes softened meeting hers.
"Well, aside from the fact that i'm from the North Side?" she said sighing heavily at what she was about to say next "and because you never texted me, so I figured I scared you away."
While Davina was talking all Sweet Pea could think about was a conversation he had with Jughead recently, even though he didn't know who Jughead was at the time.
"Who is that?" Fogarty said staring at Davina "She's hot."
"That's Davina, she doesn't date. So move on while you still can." A voice said from the booth behind them. It was Jugheads.
"What do you mean she doesn't date?" Sweet Pea questioned.
"She isn't the lovey dovey kind of person, she keeps her heart locked in a box. She said she didn't want to put herself through unnecessary pain." Jug smirked at the thought of an angry old Davina.
"So she never wants to be with anyone?" Fogarty said
"Well, she said if she ever found someone she wanted to be with, he'd be her needle in the haystack, her one in a billion, her lightning strikes in the same spot twice." Jughead said while getting out of the boot "I don't think that would be a serpent, no offense."
Sweet Pea suddenly felt his heart stop and a wave of nausea overcome him."No," he said looking at her "I just realized that our worlds are too different and we were walking on a thin line."
She sat there for a moment feeling all the emotions hit her at once. That's when she grabbed his face and kissed him. He froze for a second before returning the kiss and grabbing onto her sides gently pulling her onto his lap. Feeling her split lip against his mouth made him sad knowing she must've been in pain.
"Don't ever think that there is a world so different that I wouldn't want you in it, Sweet Pea." She said looking him in the eyes while holding his face.
Before he could respond the door to the trailer started to open and Sweet Pea pushed her off of him as FP walked through the door and faked a look of annoyance when he saw her.
"Really? Every time." He said watching her shrug and curl up into his flannel.FP went off to bed and Davina was lying on Jugheads while Sweet Pea was looking at all his stuff.
"Can you stay?" She whispered thinking he didn't hear her.
"Is that what you want?" He said smiling at her and she just nodded.
He kicked off his shoes and curled up beside her in the bed as she laid her head on his chest and fell asleep to the sound of his heart beat and the feeling of his chest rising and falling. For the first time in a very long time she slept well.
"I'm never letting you go," He whispered into the air.
