Bughead : Lost in love

Chpt 40 : Hospital Bed Betty's POV

I was sitting in the hospital writing for the blue and gold when the door opened. "Jug?" I questionned. It was him because the gray crown beanie was a dead give away. "That would be me." He said as he took his bag off his shoulder. He was here pretty early which made me wonder why he left school. "Are you skipping class?" I asked. He just got some papers out of his gray bag. "Ya. The teachers said it was fine. I also got your homework." He said as he handed me some papers.

I honestly didn't feel like doing homework. I was currently attached to the walls of a hospital through an IV. "Thanks but I don't feel good." I responded. My stomach was still killing me both from being punched by Chuck and my baby being sick INSIDE my stomach. It's a lot of pain. "Can I sit with you?" Jughead asked as he motioned towards the space on the bed. I smiled and nodded my head as a moved over to give him more space.

Moving still hurt but not as much. I could probably stand if I tried, but even standing while being pregnant is tiring. Besides, the doctors put me on bed rest for 4 days. Jug sat on the bed and I nuzzled into he crook of his arm. God I've missed doing this.

"Juggie I've been thinking." I said. "When I go back to school in a week on Monday, it'll be hard to keep hiding my bump. I think I need to tell people." I said. I was tired if hiding it. It's been 6 months of me constantly trying to hide my kid and now that I am hurt, I'm going to need people at school to know. "Betty are you sure you're ok with that? People will judge you for sure." Jughead asked as he ran his fingers through my dirty hair. The reason I'm trapped here in this hospital for a while is because I'm carrying a sick baby and they aren't letting my walk, or for that matter stand. It's only laying on my bed. "I don't know jug but I can handle it." I said.

We just sat there in the hospital wondering how the hell we both ended up here. Me, pregnant, hurt, and I'm the hospital. Jug, has a girlfriend pregnant but not with his child, in the southside serpents, and now sitting in bed with me. However we both got into this spot didn't matter to me. All that mattered to me was that fact that him and I were together.

I started dozing off by was interrupted by Jughead. "Want help on your work?" He asked. I needed to do it but I was really tired. All that I've been doing was sleeping. "Maybe just explain stuff. I'm too tired to do work." I said as a yawned. I just sat there with my eyes shut but still paying attention. "You look so tired why don't you just take a nap." He giggled as he brushed my cheek. I just nodded my head and fell asleep into his arms.

After a good long nap I finally woke up. "Hi sleeping beauty." Jughead snarked. I yawned and sat up again. "Hey." I said as I laughed and lightly slapped his identically smiling cheeks. "You should probably go. You shouldn't have to be with me all night." I giggled even though I didn't want him to leave, I still wanted him to go to his house or hang with his friends. "You sure betts?" He asked as he smiled. "Ya. I'll text you if something is up." I said as I kissed his cheek before he walked out the door. "Be safe, don't be stupid." I said as he shut the door and his flannel shirt swayed, nearly missing the wooden door. I flipped on the tv and waited until I fell asleep again, wishing Jughead was by me.
