Sorry this is another short one

Bughead x Spoby 

----------General POV----------

" I can't believe they didn't let you go to your own graduation" Jughead said "Or even prom. Your dad escaping custody and leaving on the run was not your fault"

"Juggie it's fine." Betty sighed sitting down on the couch in the trailer. "The only thing that bothers me is that I wasted my time writing that stupid valedictorian speech that I didn't even want to write in the first place" 

"What was your speech about'' Jughead asked her 

"Oh my god" Betty answered leaning back on the couch. I don't even want to talk about it" 

"Please Betts" Jughead pleaded taking a seat next to her. 

"I wrote it about what it's like to support someone unconditionally" she finally gave in

~~~

"There's this darkness in me that I don't understand. It makes me do crazy things like" she stopped talking and opened her palms revealing her scars. 

Jughead looked down at her palms and sighed. He closed her hands with his and brought them up to his lips before kissing them. 

Betty smiled up at him. Once he was done he looked up at her. She smiled a little before leaning in and kissing him. 

They pulled away and leaned her head in Jughead's shoulder while Jughead rubbed her shoulder. 

~~~ 

 "Even when they haven't been entirely honest with you"

~~~

"Why didn't you tell me Jughead" Betty screamed at him 

"Because Betty I knew you were going to freak out and " He stopped 

"Because what Jughead" Betty yelled hoping to get an answer from him. 

"Betts if I join the serpents I'll be able to protect you"  Jughead tried explaining. 

"No Jughead." Betty shook her head. "Just take what's yours and leave" 

"Fine" he said walking towards her

He scooped her up and walked out of her room

"Jughead put me down" Betty yelled 

"No Betty" he yelled back "You told me to take what's mine so that's what I'm doing" 

Betty started to cry. That's when Jughead put her down. 

"I'm sorry Juggie" she cried 

"It's ok Betts. We're going to figure this out together" he said hugging her 

"Together" she whispered back.

~~~

 And how everybody needs someone to be inspired by. Somebody who sets the bar really high. Somebody who will set their needs before their own and not resent them for it. Someone who always expects you to do the right thing and then forgives you when you don't" 

"Wow" Jughead sighed sitting down next to her. "I think your mother would be pretty moved by that" 

"Yeah she might be" Betty said sitting on his lap "But I wrote it about you"

Jughead smiled and pulled her into a long passionate kiss.
