Betty: STOP!!! PLEASE!!!
JUGHEAD POV
Betty was crying and yelling.
They were hitting me. Which I was okay with. Really.
They went back to hitting Betty.
And they lost it.
A few seconds later Betty was unconious.
Jughead: STOP SHE UNCONIOUS.
They finally stopped.
Hal: What. You think I care.
Jughead: Normally I would say yea. But in this moment. No.
He walked towards me.
I couldn't help but smirk.
Then they finally left.
I thought for sure they would hit me again.
I rushed over to Betty who was on the floor. I picked her up, and set her on the bed. I went to release my grip. When she woke up, flinched, and froze, and tried to fight me off her.
I backed away.
Jughead: Sorry Betts.
Betty: I'm sorry. What happened?
Jughead: Your parents happened.
Betty: I'm sorry. For everything.
Jughead: Don't apologize. It's fine Bett-
Betty: Jug your face. What did they do?
Jughead: It's nothing Betts, but I have one question.
Betty: Okay?
Jughead:Well you were unconious, you were on the floor. So I picked you up and tried to set you on the bed. When I went to release my grip. You woke up and you tried to fight me off of you. Why?
Betty: It's my father.
Jughead: Wait Betts, did he-
Betty: Yea Jug.
Betty said looking down, trying not to cry. She somehow knew exactly what I was going to say.
Jughead: Hey bets, it's okay. I'm sorry.
Betty: It's fine you didn't know.
Jughead: That's why when he walked in, you got even more scared, and almost froze? If that's even possible.
BETTY POV
I nodded. Jughead, just found out everything.
I told him about what THEY did. Not my dad.
He looked at me, took my hands, pulled me into a hug and gave me a kiss.
Betty: I'm sorry you got dragged into this. Mess I shouldn't have told you.
Jughead: It's fine. Betts, you should have.just one more question.
I nodded.
Jughead: How often? Never mind it's a stupid question I'm sorry.
Betty: At least twice.....everyday.
He hugged me tighter.
JUGHEAD POV
I felt terrible and I was angry. That it happened. To her, this beautiful young, independent, woman. Who doesn't deserve anything like this. This treatment. The abuse I couldn't take, but finding out what her dad did to her, I feel like she never got close to anyone and she doesn't trust anyone.
Betty: Jug, are you okay?
Jughead: I'm not sure, but I know for sure, I'm- words can't describe it.
Betty: I understand.
Jughead: I'm so sorry. Betty I can't say that enough.
Betty: It's fine Jug. What did happen after I went out?
Jughead: They left. I can't believe they would do something like this. To their own daughter. I mean that's low.
How long has ALL of this been going on?
