gangsta - riverdale sweet pea

my still tied hands, pushed jughead over onto his back. my blood mixed with his as i tried to push his body up, making sure he didn't choke on his own blood.

i was done crying, and you might think that i sound heartless for not. but this was the last straw, the last thing that would make me snap. i was no longer that weak innocent ally that got terrorised by bulldogs. i will never be the same after this.

blood poured from his mouth and i could sense him shivering underneath me. i desperately hit the cable tie on my knees, praying that the so called 'life hack' that i'd spent hours watching for no reason on youtube would help. it did, and the ties fell off my hands with a click.

i pulled the jacket from my bare body and wrapped it round it's true owner delicately. he groaned under my touch and all i could do was wait. i was too physically weak to carry him, or walk away for that matter, so i waited. i rested his head on my legs, his pulse echoing through my skin which reassured me that he was still living.

"jughead!?" i heard fps chalky voice call through the forest loudly.

"fp!" my voice croaked and cracked when i shouted, but i could tell he heard me.

"ally!?" sweet pea shouted.

sudden footsteps appeared, getting louder as they neared. they were finally in my view, two small men growing as they got closer to my covering frame over the almost dead boy.

"oh my god ally, i'm so sorry princess" i cringed at the name, thinking back to martin and the scene which unfolded in the van.

"don't call me that please" i begged, my eyes broken and pained.

"i'm sorry, come on" he said, pulling his shirt of his torso and helping me into it, wrapping his jacket around my body and picking me up. i snuggled into his chest, fp not even noticing as he fell to his knees next to jugheads body.

"you're okay now ally" he sighed.

"i love you sweet pea, i'm so sorry. i stayed in the wyrm like you said but they caught me there" i said, gazing up at him.

"what did they do to you alana?" he asked me worriedly.

"urm can we talk about it later i'm not ready" i winced as my arm brushed the leather underneath the sleeve.

"sure don't rush anything" he breathed kissing my forehead.

we ended up at an opening where the whole gang stood.

"oh my god ally!" betty cried rushing over to my broken body. sweet pea set me down and betty engulfed me into a tight squeeze, and i didn't care about the pain.

archie and ronnie joined in, tightly hugging my frame as the serpent boy stood awkwardly behind. when they broke away i rushed over to him, giving him the tightest hug that he deserved for saving me and jug. i pulled him into a passionate kiss and he hugged my waist tighter than ever, probably scared of losing me again.

"i'm so happy i found you" he sighed.

"me too, but i should probably go to the hospital.." i mentioned.

"why what's hurting?" he asked worriedly, scanning my body for marks.

he rubbed his thumb over the small heart on my cheek, and i pulled off the jacket to reveal the bruises and cuts that he hadn't noticed before.

i gulped, knowing that confessing the truth now would be easier for me than bringing back the memories later.

"martin was here. and all of them- him, malachi and a few other ghoulies- they.." i started.

"they raped you didn't they?" he growled.

i nodded, not one tear slipping from my eyes.

"i will kill every single one of those rapist scum" he shoved passed me lightly, but my hand pulled back his arm before he did anything stupid.

"no! this does not get out. but i need to make sure that nothing happened..." i signalled, hoping he got the picture.

"if it did. then they're dead" he said gruffly.

"andrews will you be able to take her home? i only have my bike" sweet pea commented.

"sure man yeah, come on guys" he motioned for us all to go.

"wait- jug?" betty asked, her face dropped in shock and as i turned around i caught a glimpse of the corpse like human fp held in his arms.

it wasn't anything i hadn't seen before, but the reality of it was too much to handle. i walked backwards to archie's truck, only turning around when i reaches the door, which i opened and hopped in.

i snuggled into a ball, hands clasping each other around my knees and i just waited. remembering the night over and over like a broken repeating record.

they all got in the car and we drove away, betty crying furiously as veronica comforted her. archie kept gazing to the seat next to his, staring at me and making sure i was okay.

"i'm fine archie" i sighed after a few good glances.

"no you're not ally, it's okay to be vulnerable sometimes, i'll take you home and you can get changed then go straight to the hospital okay?" he ordered, but i knew it was because he cared about me so i didn't argue, just gave him a slight nod.
