Unimaginable love (a bughead story) COMPLETED

Chapter four

"I just couldn't believe you would do that to me."

"Oh, come on. You loved it." I start to laugh maniacally.

Me and Jughead are at Pops right now reminiscing about when we were little, we played dress up and I made him wear a dress and my moms red lipstick. 

"I didn't care at that time though, because you were my best friend and I'd do absolutely anything for you." Jughead says with sincerity in his voice.  

"I'm happy to hear that Jug. And I have to say, I'm very grateful for you being here and making me feel better." I looked down and started to play with my hands, bashful. 

I feel hands join with my own, and I see Jughead grabbed my hands and he's looking me straight in the eyes. "Archie's a fool. He doesn't deserve you. And Veronica doesn't deserve your friendship." 

I look down and smile slightly "Jug."

"No seriously. You deserve the world Betty Cooper." Jughead said with only sincerity in his voice. 

This Jughead is way different than the Jughead who stopped being friends with me because I was annoying. 

"There's something I need to tell you, something I've been holding in for awhile, and it's also the reason I stopped our friendship-"

Before Jug can finish I see two unwanted people walk in through Pop's, them holding hands and looking unbelievably happy. 

What the heck. 

"Jug." I whisper, almost on the verge of crying. This is too much. 

Jug shakes his head, not understanding what I mean. "No, Betty, I need to say this or I may never say it again. Betty I-" 

I cut him off and I point to where the source of my unhappiness lies, Veronica Lodge and Archie Andrews. "No, Jug look." 

He turns around and he sees what I see. "Oh shit." 

I look away from the happy couple as they order and they end up kissing each other for everyone to see. I bow my head so they wouldn't see me. I can't stand the humiliation. It's too much too fast. I'm not strong enough for this. I'm weak. So damn weak. No wonder Archie decided to go with Veronica. She's confident. 

"Betty?" I hear a familiar voice say, a voice I used to adore, now the one I only dread. 

I look up and see Archie walk towards me leaving Veronica alone. She gives me a deadly look. 

Why though? She got my man, what does she have to be angry about? 

Jughead stands up immediately, "Archie." Jughead says with a threatening voice. 

I put my hand on Jughead's chest. "it's okay Juggie. I'll talk to him, let him explain. I'll be okay." I smile at him gratefully for standing up to me and I motion with my head to outside, so me and Archie can talk. 

Archie follows me outside and I turn to him and raise my eyebrows. "Okay Arch. What do you want?" 

He gulps down nervously, looking much more sober now and he says "To explain myself." 

I cross my arms over my chest and say "Fine. Explain then. Explain why you cheated on me with my now ex best friend Archie." 

He looks down, swears under his breath, then says "I'm sorry about that. I really am. But ever since me and Veronica had that kiss awhile ago, there's just been all of this sexual chemistry between us." 

I scoff, "So if there was all this 'sexual chemistry', why go out with me? Why not just pursue Veronica?" 

"I'm going to be honest Betty because I don't want to lie to you. This isn't the first time I've cheated on you with Veronica." 

My eyes bulge out and I can barely believe my ears. "How many times have you cheated on me?" 

"I've lost count." 

I can feel my throat getting stiff and I can tell I'm about to cry. "Jug was right. Cheryl was right. Kevin was right. All you are is a man whore who can't keep it in his pants for five minutes. I can't believe I loved you, that I still love you. I'm so damn stupid." I put my hands in my hair and I start to pull on it hard. 

Archie grabs my hands and looks me in the eye "Calling me names won't solve anything." 

"Shut up Archie. I don't want to hear you talk right now." 

Archie looks like he way offended by my truthful words. I can see a fire brewing in his eyes and I get ready for the explosion. 

"You know what Betty. You're know Miss Perfect either. You never cared to my needs. I'm a teenage boy. I have needs. But you're too much of a prissy ass bitch to even consider to give it up for me. It's no wonder I cheated on you with Veronica. Can you blame me? I mean, look at you? You're nothing." 

I can feel the tears running down my face. I know it's just him talking through a hurt ego but his words hit deep. It's everything I think of myself said out loud by the man I love. 

"Thanks Arch. Glad to know you think so lowly of me." I run away and I can hear the dinging of bells meaning either Archie decided to go in or Jughead is following me out. Hopefully it's the former. I don't think I can deal with company as of right now. 

I hit a slump and I trip and fall on the rocky road. 

"Betty!" I hear Jughead shout. He bends down beside me and searches me up and down to see if their is any injuries. "Are you okay?" 

"Physically or mentally?" I say with a defeated voice. 

"Both." 

"No. I'm such a mess." 

Jughead helps me up and says "Come with me. I'm going to take you to my place, fix you up, and you can spend the night there." 

"Jug you don't have to do that." I deny. 

"but I want to" 

"Okay." 

And then I follow him home.
