"Oh god guys. I have no idea what to do now." I cry, tears filling my blue eyes. Veronica puts her hand on my back, "B, this is going to pass." I have never felt so worthless, or used. How could I think that Jughead was a good man? How could I let myself live in his control? And how could I be so fucking naive? "Wait, What about Cheryl? Isn't Toni her girlfriend?" I whisper, eyes widening. "Shit Betty, your right." She realizes, heading for the door.
In no time we arrive at Thistlehouse. The huge mansion that's owned by the Blossoms. Cheryl!" I scream, knocking loudly on their bright red door. I hear quiet footsteps, ascending into loud ones as she struts closer to the entrance. "Betty, Veronica, what brings you here?" Asks a bright Cheryl. "Toni was cheating on you with Jughead. I just found out today." I say, with several voice cracks. "TT? Oh my goodness." She says, her glare facing the wooden planks. Tears run down her face, which now is the same colour as her door. "How could she do this to me?" Cheryl sobs, falling onto the ground, holding her cherry face with her pale hands. "I'm so sorry.." Veronica and I both say, pulling the weeping girl into our embrace.
After everyone had shed tears, we had gone to the living room, were we talked about our sorrow. V was helpful, giving meaningful advice. "I just can't believe it. I loved Jug with all my heart, and just like that he shattered it in pieces." I say, holding a fluffy pillow in my hands. "Me too. Toni was my life. With her, I felt complete. I could finally be who I was." Cheryl confessed. "I say fuck them. Obviously, they couldn't appreciate your kindness, positivity, and love. So you have to be strong. Go to school tomorrow, and don't give an absolute shit." Says Veronica. I could see the emotion in her eyes. It was extremely sweet how she cared for us. We agreed, had a deep hug, and went back home.
After showering, I just lay on my queen bed, thinking about tomorrow. How I'm going to react when I see him, what to do if he speaks to me, etc. But I reminded myself that I have the greatest friends on Earth. Soon enough, I fell into a light sleep.
That night I had several nightmares. Most about Jug and Toni, some just about Jug. I woke up in tears. I thought about just staying in bed all day, but decided it would be best to face my fears and go to school.
I got dressed in a white dress with some beautiful pastel flowers placed randomly around the cotton. My pink flats matched perfectly, and light makeup and long braid finished it off.
I called Veronica to ask her if she wanted to walk to school together. I saw the raven haired girl arrive in front of my house in no time. "Hey, V." I greet, hugging her. "Hi! How are you feeling today?" She asks, looking at me with curiosity. "I had nightmares. Ended up crying." I confess, staring at the clear, light blue sky. "Oh. It'll be okay soon. I promise." I nod, and we begin our route. As we walk into the older school, I spot Cheryl. "Hey." I say, hugging her as well. "Hi. How was your night? Mine was terrible."
"So was mine." I agree.
That's when I spot the breaker of my heart, Jughead Jones. He looks me straight in the eyes. "Fuck, fuck, fuck." I whisper, moving backwards. He runs towards me, and I freeze. I could feel everyone staring at me. "Betty." He says. "I'm so so so sorry. It was a huge mistake. Please forgive me! I love you with all my heart." He begs. I hear a few "aw's" in the crowd of students watching us. "Jughead, if you love me, you wouldn't have cheated on me." I sob, voice cracking. I feel anger overpowering the sadness in my body, and with all the power I have left, I slap his pleading face. "Go fuck yourself." I scream, before walking away. I've never felt so happy in my entire life. "B! That was amazing!" Claps Veronica, patting my back. "Got to say cuz, that was incredible." Laughs Cheryl, who was walking on the right side of me.
"Shit guys, I don't feel so good." Says Veronica. I look over to her green face. She sprints to the washroom, which luckily was close by. We run after her. I hold her hair up while Cheryl gets a napkin ready, to clean her face. "I've felt nauseous a lot lately." She confesses, wiping her mouth. Cheryl pulls out a pregnancy stick out of her purse. We stare at her in confusion. "What? She might be pregnant, and it's always handy to carry one around." Veronica shrugs, and heads to the stall with the stick. After she finishes, we wait two minutes. "Two lines.." I whisper. "Fuck guys I'm pregnant." Says Veronica quietly. "Do you know who's the father?" Asks Cheryl, brows furrowed. "Oh my god.. It's Reggie!"
