This story starts on the first episode of season 2

I ran, as fast as I possibly could. I ran to Riverdale General Hospital after hearing the news. My uncle. Fred Andrews. He was shot. I approached the front door of the Hospital and without even slowing down I busted the door open and ran inside. Jughead, Betty, Veronica, and Archie were all sitting together. Jughead immediately ran up to me and pulled me into a hug.

"Is he okay?" I sobbed into his chest.

"Hey, shhh it's okay calm down." He said to me.

Jughead had been my best friend since before him and Archie even knew each other.

"Let's go outside, okay Y/n," Jughead said as he helped me outside.

I sat with Jughead for a while until I was ready to go back inside. The whole gang sat together in the lobby. They were talking but I wasn't listening. Eventually, Archie and Ronnie left. Betty and Jughead were...somewhere in the hospital and I was alone. I wasn't going to leave this hospital for a second. After everyone came back my uncle's doctor came out and told us he had come out of surgery and would be in a room soon. Jughead and Betty had come back and Jughead quickly came to my side.

"Hey Y/n, have you been here by yourself." He said. I nodded and he pulled me into a hug. "Y/n, you're tired. Go to sleep." I nodded again. "Betty and I are gonna go to Pops and look for Fred's wallet. Do you want me to see if Pop Tate will make you something?"

"No, I'm good Juggie. Thank you." I muttered.

With that Jughead and Betty left and I laid down and slowly drifted asleep.

I woke up quickly when I heard Jughead come in. It was him and Betty and Pop who had brought food for everyone waiting for Fred.

"Did you see your uncle yet?" Jughead asked me.

"What?" I had no idea what he was talking about.

"They have him set up in a room."

"Nobody told me!" I yelled then ran back to my uncle.

There he was.

Unconscious in a bed my uncle lay quietly. I didn't know what to say.

"Thank you." I cried again. "You took me in, god that was almost ten years ago. Fred, when my dad left I didn't know what was happening and when I realized I-I was crushed and you treated me like I was your daughter."

At that moment it all became too much. I stood up and headed to the bathroom to try to calm down. I looked at myself in the mirror. My eyes were puffy my whole face was red. I had to get out of here. I left quickly to see Archie heading out to see his dad.

"Archie, I have to go home. Text me if he wakes up."

"Okay Y/n, feed Vegas while you're there," Archie said as he hugged me and with that, I left the hospital and went home.

Eventually, Fred came home. My aunt had come back into town. Things were as normal as they could be. Pop's was going out of business due to Fred being shot. Betty held a fundraiser to save Pops but I stayed home with my uncle.

Today Juggy had his first day at Southside High and his teacher reopened the Red and Black so, I was heading over to the school of 'thugs and criminals' to help Jughead set the room up. I made my way through the halls past the metal detectors and vandalized posters about avoiding drugs and followed the directions that Jug gave me.
