Serendipity - A Bughead Fanfiction

twenty one - reconcile

♥betty♥

"Hi Jug." I smile as he begins walking down the narrow hall towards me, Toni disappearing into the bar.

He looks confused. "Betty, what are you doing here?"

"Toni called, said that something was wrong. I came as fast as I could, are you okay?" I say, cupping his face to make sure he wasn't injured.

He moves away from my hand, making me put it down. "Yes. I'm fine."

I try to ignore the awkward tension that he'd created, tucking a baby hair behind my ear. "Did you get into a fight?"

"A small one." he says sheepishly.

"What happened?" 

"Why does it matter, you aren't my girlfriend anymore." he says, looking away.

"Jug... I thought we left things on a good page." 

"We did... we did, I'm sorry. I'm drunk and I'm taking my anger out on you."

"Why are you angry?" 

"Because I'm a fucking mess without you, Betty! There, I said it." 

"So it is my fault. Take the anger out on me then. I can handle it."

He shakes his head. "No, I can't."

"Take it out on me! I'm the reason you're upset, it'll feel good to say it to my face." I push.

"Stop, Betty. You don't know what I'm capable of when I'm drunk, I could hurt you. If I do, I could never forgive myself."

I take his hand, searching for his eyes until he looks at me. "You won't. I know you won't."

"Now, go ahead. Say what you are bottling up inside. Me of all people know what hiding your feelings can do."

"I'm loosing my fucking mind!" he yells, throwing his beanie to the floor. "You. You are the only damn thing that was keeping me from this and I know you say everything is gonna be okay, but it won't. I know it won't because I'm southside scum! Sweet Pea said so himself, I don't belong here, not with you, not with the serpents. I'm an outsider. Soon enough, you'll find a fancy jock who can give you all the love and happiness you deserve, and though it'd break me to pieces, I want that for you! I want you to be happy and coming to terms with the fact that I can't be the one to give you that is breaking me!" he sighs. "Because you were the last thing. The last thing, Betty, that gave me a reason to stay."

"Jug.." I whimper, stepping towards him and holding his jacket with teary eyes.

He steps back, "Don't."

He hovers over me, taking slow steps until I hit my back against the metal emergency door. I look up at him with wide eyes. 

"Don't you fucking dare touch me because I won't be able to keep my hands off of you. I don't know where I belong or what I am to you, all I know is that I want to rip your clothes off right here, right now and kiss every square inch of your body, letting every person in this bar listen and wish they were us and tell you the thing I've been holding in for so damn long... but that's a bad idea, right?"

My chest heaves from his sexual words until I manage to nod. I gulp, "Right."

We stand like that for a moment before I can't take it anymore. I pull him with two hands on his neck, kissing him like we never had before. Once I let go, I search for what his reaction is. To me, it seems like he's fighting himself, thinking he's wrong for me but wanting me at the same time.

"Do it." I say, looking into his eyes. "Do everything you just said."

Suddenly, his hand comes to my neck, his thumb rubbing my jawline and kissing me so deeply that my head is pushing against the door. With his thumb, he pushes up on my chin, lifting my head for access to my neck, kissing until he reaches my collarbone. 

Of course I was wearing 3 layers right now. 

He begins to unbutton my pink coat, throwing it on the floor after I help him take it off. I need another kiss before he pulls my sweater over my head, a tank top underneath. He pulls it off as well, leaving me in my bra. 

"How are you so fucking perfect?" he says, biting his lip as he looks at me.

I can't help but giggle before he begins pecking my arm, going down it. A wide smile is plastered on my face, my eyes shut in pleasure. 

His lips move to my stomach next, my hands going into his hair as he lays heavy kisses on my delicate skin. 

"Jug." I let out.

I call him up with a finger on his chin, him complying and coming up. I kiss him again, my arm going around his neck to deepen it. He lets go, pushing me harshly against the door, the cold metal making goosebumps on my skin. He kisses my neck, but I remember the last part of his confession earlier. What words did he want to say?"

"Juggie." I say to make sure he is listening to me. 

He kisses lower, down to valley of my chest, slowing down and laying longer kisses to show me I had his attention.

"Tell me." I say with heavy breath, knowing he knew what I meant. His teeth sink into the bottom of my neck before becoming lighter as he travels up the left side of my face, my hand on the back of his head as I lean back in satisfaction. 

His lips come to my ear, a small whisper erupting.

"I love you."
