Bad boys bring heaven to you

[Ten]

"I'm pregnant and I think it might be yours"
"I'm sorry you're what?"
"I'm pregnant"
"And it might be mine?"
"Yes" the tension in the room got really weird "so does anyone want some tea cause I can make some?" Becky looked at me and nodded so I left them alone and started making tea. I couldn't hear what they were saying but it didn't matter. All I could concentrate on right now was that my, boyfriend? Was he even my boyfriend? Anyways, all I could concentrate on now was that Archie maybe had made Becky pregnant. What would happen to us? Was I just going to pretend like it was nothing, like I didn't care? Like I was okay with it, them having a baby. Cause I wasn't but at the same time I didn't want to get mad at Archie before he knew what to do. Also the baby maybe wasn't even his, I had no idea how many guys she had slept with. Maybe she also liked sleeping around, after all she had said 'I think it might be yours' not 'it is yours' so until she takes a paternity test nothing is sure. I walked back to them with the tea and sat down with them. I saw that whatever they had been talking about it had made Archie upset and Becky sad. She was crying and he's face was red, I had never seen him this mad. I didn't get why he was mad, I mean it takes two to tango. It wasn't just her fault, it was his fault too. I gave Becky her cup of tea and she sipped some of it "so how far along are you?" both her and Archie looked at me like I was an idiot for asking when in reality I was just trying to break the tension between them "I'm 12 weeks"
"Have you been to the doctor?"
"Yes I have"
"Did everything look okay?"
"Yes, why are you doing this Veronica?"
"I'm just trying to make something good out of a really bad situation. When can you find out the sex?"
"Not yet and please stop!"
"So when is the birth date?"
"I said stop Veronica, this is not your situation to solve!"
"But it is!"
"No it's not!" that's when I snapped. I stood up so aggressively that I knocked out the tea "It is my situation, Archie is my boyfriend. I am the one who's in love with him not you. This is my situation, I'm in the middle of this. You're pregnant, maybe with my boyfriends baby and I'm supposed to not care. That's stupid and silly"
"You're stupid and silly for thinking that Archie is your boyfriend, that he really wants to be with you. This is what he does, he has sex with you and then dumps you. Unfortunately I got knocked up, hopefully you won't after he's done with you" I looked at Archie to get some sort of confirmation but he just looked away "I'm sorry, I need some air. I'll be right back" I walked out of the room and to the porch. There was a porch swing there so I sat down on it. When I had been sitting on it for a few minutes Archie came out and sat down next to me "why didn't you defend me?"
"Because on some level she's right" I stared at him, was he being serious? Had he been playing me this whole time? I saw his mouth crack into a smile "I'm just kidding with you" I lightly punched him on his arm "fuck you, that was not a funny joke at all" he smiled at me and I smiled back. He then leaned down and kissed me "I am sorry for not defending you, I just didn't know what to say"
"Maybe that you loved me back?"
"I do I was just in shock I mean I'm maybe having a baby for god's sake"
"Where does it leave us"
"What do you mean?"
"Am I supposed to become a step mom or what?"
"We'll figure it out like we always do"
"I don't want to figure it out. If that baby is yours, then I don't know if we can be together"
"Ronnie, you can't be serious"
"I am. I've already called Toni and Cheryl, they are coming to pick me up soon. Until this all is figured out we shouldn't be together" Archie looked at me with sad eyes. I had never seen him that broken before and worse was, it was because of me. But it didn't matter, I had to leave. It hurt me to leave him but it hurt me more to stay with him knowing that he maybe had knocked someone else up. I couldn't be together with him and become some sort of step mom to his baby. When Cheryl and Toni arrived I was standing with Archie waiting outside of the cabbin. Becky was waiting inside for Archie to come back in so that they could leave for an ultrasound they had to attend at 5pm. I started walking to the car but Archie took my arm and pulled me back into a hug. I looked up at him and I saw tears fall from his eyes "I'm not leaving forever you know"
"I know Ronnie but it feels like I'm losing you forever. If this is my baby you will never come back to me"
"Archie don't say that, you know I love you"
"I love you too" he leaned down and kissed me and he was right. Even though I was just leaving to go back to Riverdale it felt like this was the end of something. I pulled away before the kiss got to heated and ran to the car. I sat down in the backseat and asked Cheryl to drive. She leaved the cabbin and when I looked back I saw Archie standing there crying. I felt the tears that I had been keeping in start to roll down my cheeks. Not that it mattered but now I at least knew that he really loved me.
