The Boy Next Door

The Boy Next Door (Chapter 7)

A/N this might be my favourite chapter so far or the serpent talk between Jughead and Juliet. Xx

Lunch

It was lunch and Juliet felt nauseous. She wasn't eating her lunch that her friends kept pushing in front of her.
"Come on Jules you need to eat." Violet whined.
"Yeah, you're eating for two." Amahlia said quietly.
"I have been told that already today by the queen herself." Juliet once again pushed her tray away from her.  
"Where are Mike and Liam?" Amahlia asked.
"They're in the gym training." Violet said as she poked around in her salad.

Suddenly the three girls heard a voice behind them, a voice they hated hearing.
Charlie Clayton. He was the definition of toxic masculinity and takes after his father in the area of thinking women are objects.
"Hello girls." He said and sat next to them, flashing his white smile. They all rolled their eyes. Juliet could not be dealing with this moron today, she was not in the mood.
"Charlie just leave! You know none of us want you here or want to 'ride the Clayton wagon' so just stop asking and GO!"
"God, Serpent Slut. What's got your panties in a twist? You really think you can walk in to a Northside school, with your shitty 'serpent' jacket on and act like you own the place." Amahlia and Violet looked at each other with wide eyes then at their best friend, who was clenching her jaw, trying not to scream at him again. "My dad told me all about your mom, she was a serpent slut too. Sleeping with a serpent, she could have done so much better than your dad, he was from the wrong side of the tracks, has an alcoholic father," people were starting to watch now, "I heard she stripped on stage and did a pole dance in front of a bunch of creepy men, don't your mom and dad share a brother? Isn't that like incest or something, but I'm not surprised it is Jughead Jones after all, and what type of name is that anyway Jughead, his mom and dad were probably high when they named him. Your mom has probably slept with all of the serpents and your dad probably watched he is a creep after all and your mom is just a serpent slut! Take off the damn jacket you slut!" He grabbed the collar of her jacket and that's when she saw her father running over to them.
"Get your damn hands of my daughter!" Jughead shouted at the boy.
"Why she's just a serpent slut, like mother like daughter!" The dark skinned boy laughed to everyone around him.
Everyone knew that Charlie was pushing his luck here but they didn't dare interfere.
"You like serpent sluts don't you Mr Jones? I heard that you slept with Amahlia's mom?" Both Jughead and Amahlia went pale. "Are you sure Amahlia isn't your daughter?" Juliet looked to Amahlia who was on the verge of tears.
"Listen boy, let go of my daughter and stop insulting my family." Charlie just laughed at that.
"I'm not one of your trashy serpents you can't tell me what to do."
"No, you're not one of my serpents, I'd never in a million years let you into them, you're not honourable enough to join them."
Just then Juliet elbowed Charlie in the ribs so he would let go of her.
"Dad, go home, please."
"Only if your okay."
"I'm fine, I promise." He then turned to Charlie who was starting to get up.
"Touch my daughter again and there will be hell to pay." And with that Jughead left.

"Jules are you alright." Violet ran up to Juliet and hugged her. Juliet nodded and looked over Violets shoulder, she saw Amahlia with tears streaming her face.
"A, are you okay?" Juliet asked with concern, "you know Charlie was only saying that to get under my dads skin."
"Yeah, I know Jules. But sometimes I do wonder who my dad is or as my moms refer to him "sperm donor""
"A, that's what he is though he's not a part of your life, you have two amazing moms that love you. Don't ruin that by asking questions that don't need to be asked." Violet said to their sad friend.
