Bughead || Twenty Over

28. "Did you miss me?"

Hey friends so I'm assuming if you read my fic you Stan "jug takes care of Betts" fanfics lol, so since I have found that there are literally no good ones out there (to my knowledge, please lmk if you find them) I've decided that I'll just have to do it myself so my apologies if my story is to much drama from this point on

||| Jughead POV |||

Betty Cooper could not be a more perfect love.

I swear everyday that goes by I thank god that she remains safe and in my arms.

By now, most of the town knows what happened to her and she thinks this is reason enough for me to allow my pregnant girlfriend back into a crusty school of washed up jocks and bitchy cheerleaders.

"Juggie please"
"Betts, please don't make me tell you no again"
"Then tell me yes"

That smile, damn it always gets me

"I've been stuck in this house for to long"
"Betty, your close to 12 weeks pregnant, I'm not gonna allow you to be on your feet for so long in a school where all anyone is gonna do is harass you. Not happening"
"Jug, I'm gonna have to go back eventually. My parents and gone and I haven't spoken to any of my friends, I need my life back"
"Baby I know and I'm sorry, I promise everything will be okay, but you've had a rough couple of weeks and I don't wanna risk putting you in more danger"

She sighed, and then smiled up at me from where she lay in our bed.

"Fine, but only for a few more weeks"
"Thank you Betts, don't worry I'll have Veronica keep bringing your school work and I'll keep saving from my job at pops okay?"

She smiled at me and tilted up for a kiss.

"My god I love you" I whispered
"I love you so much juggie"

3 hours later

I feel asleep with Betty in my arms, exhausted after my relentless pleading with her to avoid Riverdale High. That was, until I heard it.

A gun shot.

Then a scream.

Betty's scream.

In the few moments it took my to fly down the stairs I'd never been so terrified in my life. The thought of my precious angle, a bullet pierced through her skin...
Unbearable.

"Betty! Betts where are you"
I burst into the kitchen calling frantically for my love to tell me she's alright.

"Juggie?" A frail whisper
"Juggie- I'm right here"

I found her slumped into the kitchen corner, hands over her belly. She was crying, but I didn't see blood.

I didn't see blood.

"Betts, wh-what happened?! Are you okay!"
"I don't know juggie, I heard a gun shot then someone banged on the door and then I just dropped, I-I don't know" she cried
"Hey-hey baby you're okay, you're okay" I gather her up in my arms and held her tight.
"I'm gonna go check the front door"
"No juggie please don't, don't leave me"
"I'm going to be right back" I laid a kiss to her forehead and made my way, slowly, to the door.

I cracked it open slightly and glanced around before taking a step onto the porch.

Something crunched.
I looked down.
A letter.
I opened it carefully before glancing around one more time, and stepping back into the house. Betty ran over to me, tears still flowing down her face. I slipped an arm around her before reading the letter aloud.

"The blood of the sin will spill.
Those who escaped me before, will die.
Did you miss me? -B.H"
