Jughead POV

( I'm not religious at all but I had a conversation with my boyfriend about religion based stuff so if you aren't comfortable reading stuff like that I suggest you skip half this chapter 🖤)

Betty yawns and turns to look at me. I look at her and smile. She kisses me then lays her head on my chest. " Juggie? "
" Yes? "
" Do you believe in God? "
" No not necessarily God but I believe that there is someone that looks after us when we pass. Wherever our souls go to when we do pass. Why do you ask? " she shrugs and looks at me.
" Just wondering. Hoping my mom is somewhere safe now. I hope she's watching over us and I hope she's proud. " I could tell she was sad talking about her mom so I don't say anything and I just wrap my arms around her.

****

It was me, Fangs, Sweet Pea, Toni, Betty, and my dad all in either the living room or kitchen. My dad and Betty we're cooking while I was sat on the couch next to Sweet Pea and on the other couch was Toni and Fangs.

" Here we are on freeway 600 with a shooting that happened. Three people injured and one who we think is dead. She's being put into the - "

I turn off the TV before it could upset Betty anymore. Betty walks off and goes to my room shutting the door. " Hey Toni can you watch the food for a sec please? " my dad ask and Toni nods walking to the kitchen to keep an eye on the food while my dad goes to my room to talk to Betty.

" Hey guys I have a question " I say thinking about me and Betty's conversation we had last night when we couldn't fall asleep.

They all look at me. " What's up " Sweet Pea ask. I stare blankly at the TV. " Do you believe in like God or something like that? "

They all make a odd face probably concerned on why I'm asking a question like that sence I'm not the type of person who ask that. " I do, yeah " Toni says stirring the Mac and cheese.

" I believe in God but I don't believe that he has powers or that he created the world or anything like that. I simply think that the world created itself. I think God watches over us but doesn't have the powers to protect us since he is in fact dead " Fangs says.

" I don't believe in God, or the devil, or heaven or hell. But I believe in ghost, demons, and spirits good and bad. " Sweet Pea says leaning back on the couch. " Why? "

I shrug. " Just wondering I guess " I get up to help Toni put everyones food together since it's finished.

FP POV

Betty was sitting in the bed looking at the ground crying when I walked in after the news about her mother came on the news again. They really need to stop playing that shit like we fucking get it now. I shut the door and walk over sitting next to her. It's quiet for a couple minutes just me holding her trying to comfort her.

" FP I have a question that me and Jughead have been wondering about lately? " I look at her for her to ask the question. " Do you think that there is a God of some sort? "

' wow that is one question I wasn't expecting ' I think. " No. I honestly don't even think the world we live in is real. I think it's just one big dream really. " Betty nods. " Well I'm going to go check on them boys and Toni, come back out when you're ready. " she nods and lays down.
