Work It Out ~ Bughead

Chapter 26

Betty POV ~ Time Skip Christmas Eve

It was Christmas Eve and me Ryden and Jug where icing Christmas cookies in the kitchen.

"Well done Ryden." I say kissing his forehead and brush the flour that was in his beanie off. He looked so proud off himself for icing the cookie mainly by himself.

"What about me!" Jughead says holding up his cookie I walk over to him and peak him on the lips. "Well done Jug." I say with a smile as he pulls me to his chest and placing a kiss on my head.

"I have a feeling this is going to be the best Christmas ever Betty."

"Why do you say that?"

"Well for starters this out first Christmas as a family because last Christmas you spent it with Veronica and Kevin and wouldn't let me buy you a present.And second this is Rydens first Christmas and I plan on making it special."

"How?"

"That you'll have to wait to find out Betts."

"Fine." I say with a sigh

"Oh Betts I wanted to show you something. It will al make sense tomorrow but look." He says pulling off his Tshirt and pointing to a crown angled on top of where mine and Rydens name is.

"What dose it mean?"

"That Betty is a piece of a puzzle."

I kiss him and then we finish icing the cookies and then have out dinner and change into out festive pyjamas of course Jughead had no top on like always. We where cuddling on the couch with Ryden in between us as we watched Christmas films until he fell asleep. Jughead picks up Ryden and puts him in his crib and then he joins me back on the couch.

"Jug?"

"Yes Betts?"

"What did you do with Josh?"

"Betty I'm not going to lie to you. I beat him half to death and drove him to Greendale threw him on the floor kicked him a couple more times and then warned him. Than left."

"Oh."

"Betty can we stop talking about this please? We should probably get stuff ready for the morning."

"Sure. I love you."

"I love you too." He responds kissing me. We get all the stuff ready for tomorrow and go to bed in each other's arms like always.

Betty POV:Christmas Day!🎄🎁

I wake up and see Jughead at the door with his jacket still with no shirt on he puts something in his jacket pocket and puts it in his sweatpants pocket.

"Merry Christmas." I say still laying in the bed and stretching Jughead walks over to the bed and lays onto off me.

"Merry Christmas." He says kissing me and then Ryden begins to cry. "I think Rye is up." "Do you think so?" I say sarcastically

We get up and walk into his room and pull him out off his crib. "Merry Christmas Ryden." I say kissing his forehead as Jughead wraps his arms around us. "Merry Christmas Ryden." He say kissing his head as well. We walk out into the living room and open the presents.

Jughead POV

We open all the presents Betty got me a bunch off stuff and a Apple Watch as my main present.I hade only given her the perfume and stuff like that I got her. Her main present was the ring and it was time I gave it to her.

She was on the floor playing with Ryden with all his new toys he was happy to say the least. I grab Betty's hand and pull her up so she is standing.

"Betty I think it's time I give you your main present."

"Ooo. What is it?"

"Just know you don't have to say yes to it ok?"

"Ok?"

I take a deep breath and say.

"Betty Cooper you are beautiful smart and kind and so much more. I love you with all my heart and we've been threw so much together and to be honest before you I was a lost cause and than you came along and told me about Ryden that you wanted me and we where going to have a family. Even though I tried to push you away you didn't give up on me.And I thank god everyday I have you and Ryden and even though I can be complicated you still love me. Betty what I'm trying to say is....." I get down on one knee and pull the box out off my pocket and open it to reveal the ring. "Betty Cooper. Will you marry me?"
