Bughead: opposites attract

Chapter 62

4 weeks til the wedding:

The wedding was finally all planned, they had decorations for the bar, jughead had sorted out the food, Betty had her dress and bridesmaid dresses, jug had his suit, they had done the cake, sent out invitations, finalised the flower arrangements and sorted out the rings. To say they were relieved that it was finally sorted was an understatement; Jug was finally happy that Betty seemed less stressed and looking after herself again.

Jug was in the bedroom, folding laundry that he said he would do while Betty was doing the dishes, when Betty came in, phone in hand. "Juggie?" She said and he looked up at her. "Polly said she can come to the wedding! But is there any chance we can babysit the twins overnight tonight while she had a meeting in Greendale?" Betty asked, apprehensively. "Sure betts" Jug smiled and watched as she squealed excitedly into the phone to Polly. When she had finished her phone call she joined him in the bedroom and sat on the bed. "Thank you juggie I'm sure you'd rather spend your night doing something else" she said with a grateful smile. Jug put the laundry away and sat on the bed next to her pulling her onto his lap. "Baby, I'm happy to help babysit, these are going to be my new Niece and nephew" he smiled.

Later that day Polly had dropped the twins off with and after saying how thankful she was to the couple she left for her meeting. Betty and jughead spent a few hours with juniper and Dagwood who's nicknames were June and Dag. While Betty was putting them in their high chairs to feed them jughead got a message saying he was needed to sign some paperwork down in the bar. "Babe. They need me in the bar will you be alright for a little while?" He asked. "Of course! They're good babies we'll be fine. Won't we, Yes we will" she said, aiming the last bit to the twins she was feeding. Jug grinned at the sight and left to go down to the bar.

About half an hour later jughead was holding a meeting with the Serpents when the shrill cry of a baby filled the room. "What is that?" Toni asked confused. "Were babysitting Betty's niece and nephew overnight" jug said. Suddenly Betty came bounding down the stairs with a baby on each hip; she had food baby food in her hair and sick down her top. "Oh my god betts!" Jug said as he rushed over and took a baby from her "what happened?". "They were so cute and then they just snapped and started throwing their dinner so I picked up June and she vomited all over me and I Couldn't clean it because I couldn't leave them" she sighed and jug and the serpents tried to stifle their laughter. "I'm glad you think it's funny forsythe! Now please take these demon babies" she huffed as she passed them over to Jug and went back upstairs to clean up.

That night they had managed to put them in the bath and down to sleep without trouble. "What do you want for dinner betts?" Jug called from the kitchen. "Can we order pizza?" She asked. "Always" he laughed and pulled out his phone to place an order. When the pizza arrived Jug payed the delivery guy and went to put the pizza onto plates. "Ew what is that smell?" Betty asked when she walked over to the counter, scrunching up her nose. "Erm I have anchovies on my pizza?" He said, not knowing what was making her feel like this, it was nothing new. "Ew! Can you move it away from me, it's making me feel sick" she moaned and went back to sit on the couch, after picking off his anchovies he joined her and they cuddled up on the Couch.

The next morning they were woken up by the twins crying, Jug got up to go and give them each a bottle and once they'd eaten they'd fallen asleep again. He walked back to the bedroom to cuddle his girlfriend but she wasn't their, he looked round and then he heard reaching coming from the bathroom. "Betts?" He called out. No response so he went in to see Betty being sick in the toilet. "Oh baby" he said and held her hair back while rubbing her back. "Let it out baby" he said as he continued to comfort her. "Are you okay? Are you done?" He asked once she sat up. He handed her a glass of water and wiped her face with a damp cloth. "Sorry you had to see that" she sighed. "I don't care betts, are you okay?" He smiled. "Yeah, I think I've caught some bug, I wasn't feeling well last night after we ordered pizza either" she said. "Come on, let's get you some rest, I'll look after the twins" he said and helped her back to bed where he tucked her under the duvet and placed a kiss on her head. "Do you need anything honey?" He asked her. "No thank you, I'm okay, I'm just going to get some more sleep" and yawned, Laying back down while Jughead went to check on the twins.
