"I love taking care of you." - bughead

Betty woke up, her head pounding, her hands clutching her stomach in pain.

Tears jumped in her pierce green eyes as another shot of pain streamed through her stomach. She shook Jughead lightly, who was asleep next to her, while tears ran down her cheeks.

Jughead groaned when his eyes found the daylight. Yet once he saw the teary-eyes, cramping blonde above him, he shot up and wrapped her up in his arms.

"Baby? What's wrong?" He murmured, his voice soft and worried. Betty cried in his chest, her hands still clutching her stomach tightly in pain.

"It hurts." She gruffled out, whimpering in pain once more. With a merciful kiss on her head he started whispering some soft nothings in her ear.

"It's gonna be okay love." He soothed, pressing loving kisses into her blonde hair.

He could feel she was sweaty, but shivering at the same time. "I'm cold." She quivered while nuzzling deeper into her boyfriend.

Jughead smiled weakly and pulled the blankets high over her body. "I'll go get you some water and food." She nodded blankly, clearly being tired and having pain.

"I love you." He told her when he stood up and kissed her head. She grasped the white sheets while her free hand was still pushing pressure on her painful stomach.

"It's probably just my period." She mumbled, feeling another cramp shoot through her.

Jughead quickly went towards the kitchen and took a mug. He made her some tea and grabbed some chocolate.

Within seconds he rushed back to the bedroom only to find an empty bed. He placed the plate quickly on the bed and ran to the bathroom, hearing her vomiting sounds coming from there.

What he saw in the bathroom made his heart crumble. Betty was sitting on her knees, her head over the toilet making terrible sounds while tears rolled down in waves.

Jughead held her hair up while trying to trail circles on her back with his fingers.

Once she finished throwing up she fell back on the floor. Her breathing was heavy, her eyes were closed.

Jughead kneeled next to her and held her against his side. "It's okay." He whispered, hearing soft whimpers come from her mouth.

Again her hands grasped her stomach, feeling the pain shoot right back in to it. "Let's get you tucked under the sheets." Jughead whispered and carefully picked her up from the ground.

She let him carry her while she let a few tears slip down her cheeks. For the first time she felt absolutely horrible.

Like horrible horrible.

The world was turning, her stomach was upside down, her head was pounding and the daylight hurt her eyes. Her muscles were painful and felt like spaghetti.

Jughead placed her underneath the warm blankets and tucked them tightly around her body. His hand felt her forehead, she was flaming hot.

"Sleep tight love, I have to go to the supermarket real quick to get you some tea and good. I'll be back soon." He whispered, kissing her sweaty hair.

She could only nod before drifting away into a sleep.

Jughead quickly left the house and got to the supermarket.

Jughead opened the door of Betty's house, only to be greeted by the sounds of Betty's loud sobs. Clearly she had woken up and was in a lot of pain.

With the food and pads Jughead bought for Betty, he rushed up the stairs. There he found her, curled up in the sheets while unsteadily tossing around the bed.

Her eyes were wide open and filled with tears and pain. Jughead went over to her, put the food on her bedside cabinet before embracing her warmly.

"I got you." He soothed, his voice soft and worried.

Betty hiccupped in his chest, grasping his shirt desperately. "It h-hurts." She whimpered while her tears soaked his clothes.

He didn't care.

All of the sudden Betty jumped up and quickly made her way to the bathroom. She threw up once more, Jughead following behind her and holding her hair up.

His hands supported her back while she vomited. "I'm so disgusting." She choked out once she was finished.

Jughead instantly took her in his arms while shaking his head. "You're not disgusting baby, you'll never be. Even when you're sick and throwing up, you're still the most beautiful person I've seen in my life." His words created a smile on Betty's quivering face.

"Let's get you back to bed and I'll clean this up." Jughead whispered, lifting her up in his arms.

When she was on her feet he quickly went to get her some water and held the glass by her mouth. She took a few sips and let the liquid wash away the disgusting taste of her own vomit.

"I love you." Jughead said and carried the blonde to her bed.

"Go back to sleep love." He demanded, cradling the sheets around her body.

She didn't reply as her eyes were already closed and her body was already asleep. Jughead smiled, kissed her head and headed back to the bathroom.

Silently he started to clean up the mess and threw the paper towels away after. "I love taking care of you." He whispered to the sleeping girl when he got back to he bedroom.

He couldn't seem to stop staring and smiling at her. Carefully he moved towards her and slid under the warm blankets next to her.

His arms wrapped around her body and she instinctively snuggled into them.

He loved taking care of her.
