Bughead : Lost in love

Chpt 1 : Betty's Introduction

     I'm Betty Cooper. My family and my life is pretty much captured as perfect, by little does anyone know that life is falling apart little by little in our family. My older sister Polly got pregnant by her boyfriend when she was 17 and moved away with her boyfriend, practically forgetting our family. Polly was all I had left, considering both my parent aren't supportive at all.

     My parents, especially my dad, yell at me and scream at me saying how I disappoint their family. They also hit me, they say it's to protect me but they practically abuse me. It's understandable because I also abuse myself.
     (Trigger warning)

     I've been cutting myself lately, I know it seems dumb but it feels good to me. Just watching as my own blood drip out of me almost makes me feel like I'm doing my parents a favor. I don't like hurting myself but it's almost automatic. The one thing that really keeps me from hurting myself is the only one that cares about me, my boyfriend Jughead.

     Jughead has been here for me even before we were dating. He actually cares about me, unlike the rest of the world. We spend a lot of time together, laughing, smiling, or just talking. We've been together for two months. I'm in love with him. I also haven't told Juggie about my cuts. I don't want to hurt him by having him know how I hurt myself

     Anyways, still think life is perfect for the coopers? It's anything but perfect. The perfect things in my life are my grades, which I force myself to keep up because who knows what my dad will do if I have one B+. I also write for the blue and gold at our school. Writing just takes stress off me and it's also how jughead and I met eachother. Jughead is a very talented writer and we work well together.

My life isn't all dark, but the dark parts of my life is what consumes me. I have a great group of friends including Jughead. Kevin Keller is one of them, he is my gay best friend. Then I'm friends with Archie and Veronica. I've known Archie for a long time I can't even remember when we met. Veronica came to the school this year and we're now best friends. Jughead Archie Veronica and I all call ourselves the core four.
