A Bughead Story

Plans

Jugheads POV
I knew I wanted to marry Betty Cooper. She's the love of my life, my soulmate. I just needed permission from her father.

I walked to the Cooper house and knocked. Betty and I have been dating for about 7  years now and we live together in a small house in riverdale. It's very close to our families and Veronica and Archie. I am an author and Betty is a writer for the register. "Hi Mrs. Cooper."

"Hi Jughead. Is there any reason why you're here? And not with Betty?"

"Um yes. I was wondering if I could speak to Mr. Cooper."

"Sure. I'll just call him up. Take a seat on the couch."

"Thank you." I walked in and sat down. Everything looked the same. Same pictures, paint colors, furniture, decorations, everything. Even after 4 years of us graduating high school the house still looked the same. Mr. Cooper walked up into the living room and greeted me. "Hello Mr. Cooper."

"Hello Jughead. What would you like to talk about?"

"I was wondering if I could have you permission to take your daughters hand in marriage." I asked.

"Well Jughead. I know you make her happy and that's all I could ever ask for. Just don't go breaking her heart now. So of course I agree."

"Thank you! Thank you so much."

"Of course. Now run along. Get back to her." I smiled and exited the Cooper house. I got home to see Betty throwing up. (No she's not pregnant ok)

"Omg. Betty are you ok?"

"I'm fine. Just a stomach bug." I got her some water and she took a sip. I led her back to our room and laid her down.

"You need to rest. I'm gonna go get some stuff from the store ok?" She nodded. I gave her a quick kiss and left.

J: hey Veronica can you meet me at pops. I need to talk to you.
V: yeah sure what about?
J: I'm planning on proposing but I need help.
V: omg! Of course. I'll see you there!"
J: ok thanks
V: no problem.

I got to pops and saw Veronica already sitting down. I sat across from her. "Ok. I need to propose but I don't know how!"

"Hmm. Do you not have any ideas?"

"Well I have one but it's not very good."

"Spill."

"Ok so. I was gonna hang fairy lights all over pops and have a few friends and family members. But I would hang pictures of our past memories here at pops. And it'd start from really young at the door and just get older and older and older until you get up to me and I'd propose. And there'd be flower petals everywhere. And everyone would give her a little picture of us."

"That sounds amazing Jug! Just do that! She'll love it."

"What if she says no?!"

"Trust me. She won't." I smiled. I left pops and headed to the store. I got medicine, Powerade, soup, heating pads, and blankets. I got back home to see her taking a nap. I sat at her bedside and stroked her hair. She opened her eyes.

"Juggie! You're gonna get sick!"

"I don't care." I gave her a kiss but she squirmed away.

"Excuse me?!"

"You're gonna get sick!" I rolled my eyes.

"I got you some stuff from the store. Are you hungry?"

"Nope. Thirsty though." I grabbed the Powerade and handed it to her. She took a few sips and set it down. "Thanks juggie."

"Of course." I gave her another kiss and laid beside her.

"No! I'm sick!"

"And? I don't care." She gave up and let me lay beside her. We soon fell asleep.

I woke up the next morning and Betts was laying beside me. She seemed to be getting better. After a few minutes of me watching her she woke up. "Morning princess."

"Morning Juggie."

"Feeling any better?" I asked. She nodded. I smiled at her. "You should still take the medicine though."

"Fine." She groaned. I handed her a pill and she swallowed it with a swig of water. I smiled at her. "Ok. What shall we do today?"

"Watch a movie?"

"Of course." I set up my laptop and we sat on our bed watching some movies. We are some snacks too. Suddenly my phone dinged.

"Hold on a sec Betts I gotta take this." She nodded and I walked out of the room.

V: hey can I tell Archie?
J: sure I guess
V: also when are you planning this?
J: in a few days. Maybe next week.
V: ok. Bye
J: Bye.

I walked back in and sat beside Betty. "What was that about?"

"Oh it was just Veronica."

"What were you guys talking about?"

"She was asking what to get Archie for their anniversary."

"Oh ok." I smiled as Betty cuddled up into my chest. Soon enough she was snoring softly. I smiled at her and drifted off to sleep as well.
