{General POV}

7 years ago, Betty and Jughead broke up, Jughead wanted to stay in Riverdale, while Betty wanted to move to New York, far away from home. In the end, they broke up, it didn't end on a good note. A few weeks after they had broken up, Betty found out she was pregnant. She didn't want to just barge back into Jughead's life, so she decided she would keep it a secret. 

"Mommy" Juliet called out, "I'm hungry"

"JJ, you just ate thirty minutes ago" Betty said walking into her daughter's small bedroom 

"I know" Juliet shrugged 

She has the same appetite as her father, Betty thought

"Ok come on" Betty smiled as Juliet got up and ran towards the kitchen

She never told Jughead about her, the only people who knew were her mom, Polly, Archie, and Veronica. Juliet occasionally asked for her father, Betty usually said that he was there when she was born but was too busy to ever be home, so far she always believed it, but Betty knew she would eventually need to tell her the truth. 

"I miss daddy" Juliet said with her mouth full of cereal

Betty's head snapped in her direction, this was the first time that she had said that in a few months "I know baby, I do too" 

"Will he come back soon" Juliet asked hopefully

Betty sighed, giving her a sad smile "I don't know JJ"

"I hope he does, I want to see him" Juliet said going back to eat her cereal 

This is becoming a really hard secret to keep from her, Betty thought.

"Hey sweetie, how was school" Betty asked as Juliet got to their car after school 

"Horrible" Juliet cried 

"Why, what happened" Betty asked concerned 

"Sara smacked me with a jump rope" Juliet said rubbing her neck 

Betty looked at her through the rearview mirror with wide eyes. "Why"

"Because Mr. Jones spent more time playing me than her, so she was jealous" Juliet explained

"Who's Mr. Jones" Betty asked 

"He picks Sara up everyday, and sometimes he plays with all of us for a little while " Juliet told her 

"Is he her father" Betty asked

"I think so" Juliet shrugged 

"I'll talk to your teacher tomorrow" Betty said driving back to her apartment

Juliet nodded. Betty wanted to know who Mr. Jones was, hopefully she would meet him tomorrow.

"Mrs. Montgomery" Betty called out walking to the front of the classroom after school, towards her. Juliet was with her. 

"Ms. Cooper, to what do I owe this pleasure" Juliet's teacher smiled 

"Juliet told me that she was having some problems with another student" Betty said 

"Yes, I think your referring to Sara" Mrs. Montgomery started "We are taking it into account"

"You're clearly not, my daughter came back with a red mark because Sara smacked her in the neck with a jump rope" Betty argued 

Jughead who was going to ask Mrs. Montgomery something, stopped when he heard a very familiar voice. He walked into the classroom and saw a blonde arguing with the teacher, with a raven haired Juliet with her, something about Sara
