Bughead :: Aftermath {Slow Updates!}

Age 2

Jughead called his daughters name through the doorstep. "Juliet? Jules? You here?"  As if on cue his daughter came down in a serpent Jacket. Jughead gasped. "Juliet Forsythia Jones you take that jacket off." He said trying to stay calm. "Make Me!" She replied trying to push past him. "Juliet your mother and I did not raise you to be this way! Go to your room now!"
"Mom left years ago cause you became FP! Take a look around dad! Mom moved to Toledo just like Uncle Archie's mom did!! Now look around at this dusty old trailer! This is the life you gave me! Living in a beer bottle scattered trailer on the southside!" She rambled. He looked around and before his eyes the house he lived in with the two most precious people in his life faded. It dripped in melted into a different version of his fathers trailer. Juliet finally pushed him out of the way. "I'm going out. Expect me back at 1." "What no!" The door slammed and with that Jughead woke up.

Narrator POV

Jughead woke up in a cold sweat. He looked around. He saw Betty sleeping peacefully beside him and toys scattered around the room. He sighed. Everything was ok. Then he heard a scream. Betty immediately woke up and started to get out of bed, but He pushes he back "I'll go." He said she nodded and kissed her cheek. When he went down he saw the kitchen light on and the sound of sniffing. He was confused to say the least. When he walked in the kitchen he saw none other than his daughter, on the ground staring at the cookie jar she had knocked down. She saw her father at the doorway and stood in front of the broken jar and looked down. "I sawwy dada! I dint mean too!" She said when she saw his face. "It's okay princess.. But tell me why you're down here in the middle of the night?" He chuckled. He picked her up and she simply replied "I wanned Cookie!" Jughead laughed at her and smiled. He looked out the window and said "Okay let's make a deal. I'll clean this up and I won't tell mommy, and you have to promise not to sneak down and break things again. You could get hurt. Deal?" He said sticking his hand out. She put her small hand in his and gave him a kiss on the cheek. "I love you daddy!" She said before trotting up the stairs back to her room. Jughead sweepers up the remains of the cookie jar and thought.  What if my dream comes true? I can't let Juliet become a serpent! Ugh. This is my debt for being associated with those goons. He finished sweeping the broken jar and went upstairs. He promised himself he would never let his baby see that jacket. He saw the clock when he went into the room where he saw Betty asleep. 5:12 am. He groaned and went back to bed. He placed an arm around Betty and fell back to sleep. When he woke up he forgot he was no longer in the hoodie he fell asleep in and went downstairs in a tank top. (You'll see😣) He groggily walked down the steps where he saw his daughter at the family table watching Sesame Street on the IPad. "Morning Juggie." Betty greeted from her position near the stove. He kissed her cheek and bid her good morning. He walked over to his daughter and kissed her head. "Shhhh remember mommy doesn't know." He whispered. She laughed and nodded. Betty smiled at the two and placed the usual Saturday breakfast of  pancakes and bacon before them. The family ate and Juliet kept laughing. "What's so funny sweetie?" Betty asked. "Nothinnnggg" the little girl snickered. Betty ruffled her hair and Jughead smiled. Juliet looked at her fathers arm when he poured her a glass of milk. "Daddy why is there a snake on your arm? Is it your favorite animal?" Jughead put down the milk and looked at Betty in hopes for an answer. Her eyes were wide and she smiled. "It's something Jughead let Auntie Jellybean do before she worked at the tattoo shop with Auntie Toni." Betty replied. "If it's not your favorite animal.. then why isn't it your favorite thing?" Juliet said clearly confused. Jughead laughed and said "I don't know Jules. I don't eve know." After breakfast Jughead washed the dishes and Betty went up to get Juliet ready. "I'll tell her when she's older. She'll understand then." He thought. But he couldn't help but fear a little that his little princess will grow up to be him.
