B POV
I opened the door and Scarlett came in. She hugged me tightly. "I'm not going anywhere munchkin." I whisper. "How long are we gonna be gone?" she asks. "A few days. We're gonna leave after breakfast in the morning so get some rest after you pack." I say. She nods and heads back to her room. I close the door and fall back against it. "Betts. You ok." I hear. I lay my head back and close my eyes. I feel hands on my hips, rubbing my sides. "Betty." he says softly. "Hmmm." I murmur. "Look at me." he whispers, but I don't move. He starts kissing my neck, and I open my eyes slightly. "Juggie." I mumble. "What is it Betts?" he mumbles against my neck. He looks up at me. "You ok love?" he asks. "Yea." I move my arms so they are wrapped around his neck. I kiss his lips and rest my head on his shoulder. 

S POV
I woke up to the smell of pancakes. I walk into the kitchen to see mom sitting on the counter laughing, and dad cooking. "Good morning." I yawn. "Hey munchkin. Did you sleep well." Mom asks and I nod, sitting at the table. Dad set a plate in front of me. "Thanks." I grin. "You're welcome." he kisses my head, and makes more pancakes.

J POV
"How many do you want?" I ask. "I'm not really hungry." she says. "You need to eat Betts." I say and she sighs. "I know. I'm just, so used to barely eating or not eating at all." she replies. "Yea, but now you have a baby, and you gotta eat." I say. "Fine. Make me a couple." she says and I grin. I hand her a plate and she slowly eats. Scarlett sets her plate in the sink and heads to her room. "These are amazing." she grins. I kiss her head. "Thank you." I say. She finishes and I set her plate in the sink. I walk over to her and place my hands on either side of her, trapping her on the counter. She wraps her arms around my neck. "Thank you for breakfast." she mumbles against my lips. "You're welcome now come on. We have to get ready." I say and help her off the counter. "Why are you so tall?" she whines. "Why are you so short?" I retort. "Thats not funny! I'm shorter than mom!" Scarlett complains. We both laugh and go to our room. We get dressed and I grab the suitcase and Betty gets Scarlett to get hers. "I'm driving. I've drove there a few times." she says. "Are you sure? We both know how much you love sleep." I say and she chuckles. "I'm sure. You don't know where the house is and if I'm asleep, you're gonna circle New York City for hours." she says and gets in the driver seat. Scarlett gets in the back and I get in the passenger seat.

S POV
Mom woke me up and I looked out the window to see this two story brick house. "Woah. You lived here?" I exclaim. "Yea. It's........decent." she says with a small smile. We get out and head inside. Mom shows us the entire house. "It's amazing here." I gasp. "Most of the time. The floors have been bleached so many times, I don't know how they are the same color." she says. "What do you mean?" I furrow my eyebrows. "I......I had to clean up blood, a lot." she mumbles. Dad wraps an arm around her, whispering in her ear. "Anyways, let me show you the room you're gonna stay in." She grabs my hand and takes me upstairs. We walk into a room that has pink and grey walls. "This was my old room." she says. "How? This doesn't look like you. Not at all." I say, looking around the room. "I've changed a lot over the years." she chuckles. "I like it." I grin. "I'm glad." she hugs me. "Ok. I'm gonna go show your dad the room we're gonna stay in." she says when we release. I nod and look around the room.

B POV
I found Jughead and led him to my aunt and uncles room. "Are you sure you want to stay here?" he asks, wrapping his arms around me from behind. "I'm sure." I take a deep breath. He rests his head on my shoulder. "I wouldn't mind staying in a different room love." he says. "I'm ok." I say. His grip tightens a little, "I promise. I would tell you if I'm not." "Ok. You should get some rest. You've been driving for a while." he says. "I'm not tired." I say. "You should still get some rest." he says. "I don't wanna." I whine, and his grip tightens a little more. "Don't squeeze me too tight." I whisper. He nods, but his grip doesn't loosen. He kisses my shoulder, and moves his head back. "I love you." I whisper. "I love you too." he whispers back. He rubs my sides, and there's a knock on the door. "Who could that be?" I wonder.

J POV
We get down to the door and Betty opens it. I see her face go white and pull her behind me. "Who are you?" I ask. "Her boyfriend. Who are you?" he says. "Her husband." I growl. "Mom? Dad?" Scarlett asks. "Go to your room." Betty says. She nods and rubs back to her room. "Betts." he says. "No! You don't get to call me that!" she yells. He tries to step closer, but I put my arm up. "I wouldn't if I were you." I snarl. He looks at me, then Betty. "You really gonna let him talk to me like that?" he asks. "I have a restraining order on you. I would leave if I were you." Betty says. He scoffs and turns to leave. "This isn't over." he yells over his shoulder. I close the door and turn to Betty. "Betty?" I say softly. She shakes her head, tears running down her face. "It's ok love." I hug her. She hugs me tightly, sobbing into my chest. "It's ok. You're ok. Shhhhh.  Calm down love." I whisper.
