"I promise I'll get you out of here." - bughead

"Miss Cooper, you need to behave!" I heard the stern words from the old lady in front of me echo through the room.

I was sitting, curled up into myself against the wall behind my tiny bed. My hair was tied up into a ponytail.

"I'm sorry ma'am." I choked the words out of my throat. Tears were pressing up underneath my eyes.

"Don't let this happen again, there will be consequences young lady." She pressed the words on me before she left the room and locked the door behind her.

Being here was like a prison. Locked up into a small room, no friends, no family. It seems like a good place from the outside, but it's cruel.

It makes me have even less self-esteem than before. They ruined me, my thoughts are getting more desperate.

The only thing that is keeping me busy is trying to find a way to get out of here. Trying to reconcile with Jughead, with mom and Polly.

I gazed at the stray of sunshine that gleamed through the high window. I heard the bell ring.

Movie time.

The door of my room was opened and a lady took me outside, towards the movie room. I sat down in the dark room where everyone was already sitting.

The movie started and it caught my concentration.

A sudden loud bang startled me, like a door that got slammed. All of our faces turned towards the direction where the sound just came from.

I recognised the grey hat and the green eyes.

"Jug!" I exclaimed, my eyes brightening.

I jumped up from my chair and ran straight into his arms.

He lifted me up and held me while I pressed my lips against his. God how I've missed that.

He kissed me back tenderly. I felt all the eyes on us, but couldn't care less. I broke away from the kiss, his arms circling around me and taking me into a warm embrace until I was rudely torn away from him.

One of the nurses held me back while Jughead was pulled back by one of the male guards. I started screaming in desperation.

"Jughead! No! Don't leave! Let me go!" I yelled from the bottom of my throat. I tried to wrestle my way out of the nurses arms, and managed to eventually get loose.

As quick as I could I ran back to Jughead and wrapped my arms around his body. He got loose as well from the guard and held me close.

"I promise I'll get you out of here," he whispered in hurry, "I promise." His grip on me loosened and he was pulled away by the angry guard.

"I promise." He repeated himself quietly before he disappeared behind the crowd of women and guards.

I cried uncontrollably while I fell onto the ground. My hands covered my eyes, but I felt all the eyes burn through my skin.

Two nurses picked me up from the ground and dragged me inside my room, me still crying heavily.

They rudely threw me on the bed. "We told you to behave young lady!" One of the two said before they left my room and slammed the door shut.
