Serpent By Blood

Bettys Pov:
I walked away from sweet pea to go join Toni, Emma and her boyfriend James, they were my best friends two years ago and it's crazy how quickly people can loose touch. "Hey guys." They all turned around and their faces lit up. "Betty!" They all said in unison before surrounding me in hugs. "Betts, what do you say about coming to the white wyrm and drinking all night long to catch up?" James asked. "Well if it's water then yes." I mentally slammed my head through a wall because I forgot to tell them about the babies. Their eyebrows furrowed and Emma spoke up. "What is it, are you suddenly sober all the time now?" I took a deep breath. "No, but I kind of have to be for 6 months." Emma looked up at me stunned. "Your three months pregnant?!?" I nodded slowly, not sure about how her reaction would be. "Who the hell with?" Had I really not talked to them whatsoever after I came here? "Jughead Jones, the one in a beanie behind me." They were all shocked because I had always been so careful with Sweet pea, I was religiously on the pill, I ALWAYS had a condom and we were both so careful but somewhere in the middle of me being with Jughead I just became careless, I was forgetting about the pill and half of the time we didn't use any form of protection, I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner. I guess the real reason behind why I was so careful with sweet pea was because I didn't love him and I definitely didn't want a baby with him and with Jughead, it's just so different, I love him with everything in me and I wasn't wanting a baby with him, especially since I'm only 18 but it wasn't something I was completely opposed to. "How many people have you been with?" Toni asked.
"Two, him and sweet pea." Toni's smile grew ten times wider. "Who's better in bed?" My mouth flew open. "I-I, sweet pea VS Jughead, it doesn't..." I was trying to figure out a way to say that Jughead was better without really saying it...but instead I was brutal. "Jughead, completely Jughead, sweet pea was just..,he couldn't you know." This was officially the most awkward conversation I had ever had. To make matters worse I brought up a secret relationship between Toni and Cheryl in an attempt to change the subject. "How are you and... I mean anyone new?" She shot me a look. "No." She said it bluntly even though I knew it wasn't true. "Well I should get going." I walked away from it, always walk away before you let something slip. I walked to class alone, just me and my thoughts. It's not good when I'm alone, things get in my head. I was thinking about how I could deal with Alexis and Sophie, how on earth will I be able to deal with them?

I know, I know short chapter but it had to be because I was speed writing this, the Vacation has been moved to the second of August so I could still write but I honestly don't think I can write this fast for a week. I probably won't publish anything until the August 10-13 because I have no other chapters to publish. The time that I'll be away I'll pre-write several chapters and that shouldn't be too hard because there's not much to do when your in a car without data/internet for 12 hours. So there's that and I really hope you've liked the book so far, stay tuned! Also thank you all for 1k reads means a lot!!!
