Bughead One Shots!

Miserable

3rd POV

The whole of Riverdale seemed to be in a depressed slump. No one had smiles on their faces or spent late nights laughing at Pop's as usual.

There was a specific reason everyone was upset. Bughead was no more. The Iconic couple broke things off a few weeks ago. No one knew why, not even Archie Andrews or Veronica Lodge, the best friends of said ex-couple. Betty Cooper nor Jughead Jones left their houses for weeks on end. Their friends had tried and tried to talk to them, to get them to open up, but alas, no one could pry open the crate of emotions bottled up inside each of them.

Betty had allowed one person to come and see her. Archie Andrews glanced out of his bedroom window and was truly shocked to see Toni Topaz sitting on Betty's bed, talking with broken blonde.

Betty's POV

"I don't understand it, Toni! He tells me he loves me one day, then breaks up with me the next. What did I do?" I cried out, Toni was the only person I had let in my room in two weeks.

"Nothing Betty, it's a douche move that I honestly never saw coming from him." Toni comforted me.

"I just want to know why. I thought everything was going fine, but no he texts me saying it's over! Honestly, if he's going to break up with me at least do it in person." I say, sniffling slightly.

"I totally agree with you. Maybe Veronica will too if you let her in?"

"No Toni, she'll pry and pry until I break and I can't go through that right now."

"I get it Betty but she's really concerned about you."

"I know... I hate that she's concerned but I'm too afraid I'll shatter."

"I know Betts, I know. Come here" She outstretched her arms and I collapsed in them, crying less than the day prior.

Jughead's POV

I was miserable. I didn't want to break up with Betty. I wanted to marry the beautiful blonde and start a family with her. I know what you're asking, Jughead why are you such an asshole? Well, my dad is forcing me to move to Toledo with him to move back in with my mom and Jellybean. 

I want to explain to her but I don't think I can without breaking down at the thought of losing her. My plan is to just leave and not tell anyone. Everyone is mad at me anyway so they wouldn't care. I leave in two days so I can put up with it until then.

3rd POV

The next day was a Monday, no one expected Betty Cooper or Jughead Jones to come to school. Nevertheless, the blonde was sat in her first block class, and the beanie-wearing boy was still in bed, crying about his tragic heartbreak. Little did anyone know, Jughead was leaving the next day and would never return to Riverdale for his beloved blonde. The day dragged on and on until it was over. Everyone gave Betty looks of pity and she held her head up high and kept a tear-free face.

As soon as Betty got home, she was expecting the normal routine as the past few days. She was expecting Alice to ask if she was okay, Polly to offer advice and the twins crying. Even the babies had felt the sudden depressed mood. She was expecting to cry as soon as she was sheltered from the public eye. She wasn't expecting a neatly folded note on her bed with Jughead's iconic beanie folded just as neatly on top of it. Even though every fiber in Betty's body told her not to open the note, she did.
