The life - A bughead story

Cat is out if the bag

Betty's been in surgery a while and I can't do anything but wait. Eventually Alice and my mom show up and Betty's friend Cheryl that she met.
Alice was in tears and shook up more than I was, which I found weird.

"What's happening did they give an update?" Alice asks.

No I sit there and try not to fall apart but I can't really help it.

A few hours later a doctor and two nurses approach us.

My mind went blank. In movies don't they send most the staff to apologize for our loss. I get really
scared and they say they have good and bad news.

"Well the good news is they were able to realign her ribs but they still remain broken and she needs her kidneys removed, a bullet fragment spiked it, causing a major bleeding. We can remove her kidney but she has lost a lot of blood and we don't have her type she's rare, o-.

Alice Point of view

My secretes finally going to come out I think to myself.
18 years ago I was so broken to the point that I couldn't take it anymore. My husband Hal beat the hell out of me every chance he got and I didn't want to live that life anymore, I got pregnant with Hal's babies and than I fell in love with someone else. I was 3 months pregnant when he beat me to the point of me being on the bridge of death. So my high school best friend Tom was the sherif saw my pain and helped me fake my death. I had to give up one thing though, my babies. When I gave birth to my Elizabeth and Archie it was either we all stay and suffer an abusive life, or we separate and live happy ones and I made the call. I left my babies in the trust of Tom Keller and he kept an eye out for her while I moved to Ohio and I thought he did, but he didn't even call me to tell me betty left riverdale.
I knew I had to say something, I knew I was the same blood type as Betty because when she was born I had to give some of my blood to her than because her immune system wasn't strong enough.

"I'm the same blood type as Betty." I say hesitantly
Jughead looks at me in amazement.

But Gladys's looks at me scared because she already knows my secret  I told her the day I met Betty, I knew it was her because of the name, and the fact she wore a south-side serpent jacket. The same gang I was in, in high school, when I met Hal. Part of me always resented the serpents after I left because Thats what started all my pain, when I heard Betty joined I wanted to die but when I met her. I was just great full that my old family looked out for her.

The next night
Betty was in recovery

I was done giving blood and the surgeon said Betty did good. I had just gotten jug to leave her side to go eat something, he is so sweet. Betty was lying there and I couldn't stop tears from coming to my eyes so I just grabbed her hand to hold it and her gown lifts up just a little bit, enough for me to see the outline of it, I wanted to know.
I lifted up her gown more and saw it..
It was just like mine..
I start uncontrollably crying but I eventually got myself together.

"Betty I know FP did this tattoo.. because it's the same one I have on my self.. I love you so much when Tom told me I had no choice but to give you and your brother up and fake my death to save us both. I didn't want to but I knew you would've both had a better life if we weren't always in hiding and I'm so sorry this happened to you and I hope one day I'll get the courage to tell you the truth, but for now, I'll have to wait..
Betty opened her eyes
"You just did" she said, tearing up and grabbing my hand.
