while we were still in Pops I saw Reggie get more defensive over me. "I would never hurt Victoria." Sweet Pea says and Reggie and Moose laugh. "You are the reason why she cries in the morning every day." Moose says. And Dilton looks down. "She's broken dumbass." He says and I scoff and shake my head. "Guys it's okay." I say and Jughead gets out of the bathroom. I sigh in relief. I just give everyone a weird look and I pay for our food and told Pop to keep any leftover cash. I grabbed Jugheads hand. "What happened in there?" He says and I shrug. "If I knew I would tell you but it made me feel weird." I get into the truck and he gets in and starts it and we drive over to my house. It was Jugheads first time in the house since that breakfast.
He looks around in confusion. "What happened?" He asks looking me concerned. I shrug. "I had a break down." I said. "I didn't realize a break down meant break everything in sight." Jughead says and I smile and I get changed into more comfy stuff and I gave him some of my dads clothes. We both sat on the couch. "So can you be honest with me?" I say to Jughead and he looks at me and nods. "Anything Tori." I sigh. "Did Sweet Pea get a girl pregnant?" He looks at me confused. "I mean he's been going on random hookups with girls in the Wyrm but I don't think it ever went past oral." He says and I cringe not wanting to imagine another girl doing that to Sweet Pea. But I was glad he didn't go that far with a girl and be so careless.
We both sit and watch tv again. I fall asleep resting my head against Jugheads shoulder. But the next morning I woke up in my bed. I had the stuffed animal my mom gave to me next to me and I smiled. Jughead must've took it out. I walk outside and everything looks clean. I look at Jughead and smile. "Jughead you did all this?" I ask and Fangs, Sweet Pea, Toni and Gianna walk to me. "And us too." Gianna says and I smile at her. Sweet Pea kept giving me guilty smiles. I just tried to ignore him. It kinda worked. He'd try to talk me I'd just ignore him. I would've believed him if he didnt act like such a doofus. But here he is.
I was just still confused about why Reggie and his friends got so defensive. I know they wouldn't have gotten like that over me. I don't even talk to Moose or Dilton. So it makes 0 sense.
I was happy everyone helped clean my house though. It was a legit a big pig stye. I can really do damage if I need to. I kept seeing Sweet Pea give me looks. After a bit I grabbed Sweet Peas arm and I made him come in my room. "So? What's up?" I ask annoyed. "Look, that girl I didn't get her pregnant. We hooked up but we didn't have sex." He says. "And that makes everything totally okay." I say with a small laugh. I walk up to him more. "Also why were the northside boys going off? What northside girl did you hook up with?" I ask and he looks down. "Josie." He says and my heart sinks. She would've done that to me? She knew how much I liked Sweet Pea. At this point though I didn't give a shit. It's her funeral. "You disgust me." I say and I start to walk out and he grabs my arm. "Please, just listen okay?" He says and sigh and nod. He lets go and I cross my arms. "I love you Victoria. And only you. I'm sorry I ruined our relationship by freaking out. I should've been more supportive. It wasn't fair to you and I'm sorry." He says and I nod. "So can you forgive me?"
I nodded. "I have forgiven you. I just can't trust you." I say and he sighs. "When can you?" He asks and I shrug. "Trust is earned. I can't just hand it over. Just be honest and don't sneak around and I will trust you okay?" I say and he nods and smiles. "No problem." I nod and walk out. After that everyone hung out. We all watched tv and ate food, you know the norm. I just couldn't stop thinking about Sweet Pea. I want to trust him. I love him more than anything. Just because I lost trust doesn't meant I don't love him. Because I do. He's the love of my life. I don't think I could love anyone as much as I love him. I just wish none of the Ghoulie bullshit happened. He wouldn't have freaked out on me, i wouldn't have freaked out on him. It could've been so simple.
Then again, when is my life simple!

So this is a kinda short chapter but I'm just in an really bad mood and I'm tired bc it's literally 12:13 so love that. I hope you guys enjoy though. Tm I'm probably gonna do a writing spree so expect a few chapters tm.
