*Flashback*
Around 1-2 years ago

Betty is laying on their bed watching TV. Jughead had gone out for shopping. As soon as he came back he noticed an envelope on the front of the door. He opened it and a smile quickly appeared on his face and disappeared at the same moment. His dad was making breakfast and had heard him getting in.
-Hey son.
-Hey dad.
He went closer to the kitchen and removed his jacket. He left the envelope on top of the counter. Fp looked at it and realised what was it. He smiled and hugged Jughead.
-Good job boy.
-Umm...what am I gonna tell Betty? She's going to be very sad.
-Were you talking about me?
She said coming downstairs and going close to him. Hugging him from behind.
-Hey baby.
She said with a smile.
-Hey Betty. Hey little peach. How are you?
Jughead said with a silly voice touching her little belly.
-Stahp! What is that?
She said when she noticed the envelope.
-Can we go upstairs and talk Betty about it?
-Yeah. I guess so. You're scaring me.
-No it's okay. No need to be scared.
He said grabbing her and pulling her with him upstairs. They went to their bedroom and he closed the door. She sat down on their bed and he sat beside her.
-So what is it?
-I'm going to military. And...
-You're what?
-Going to the military baby.
-No you're not.
She says smiling.
-Is this a joke or something?
She says giggling fakely.
-No it's not. Here in the envelope.
He gives her the envelope and she opens it. She reads it and takes a deep breath, trying to not let tears fall. She gets up.
-Excuse me.
She says going in the bathroom, crying. Not loud. She sobs and sits on the floor.
-This can't be happening.
She whispers sobbing. He gently knocks on the door as he is heartbroken to hear her crying.
-Can I please come in?
-Yeah.
She says wiping her tears and trying to get up. He opens the door.
-Let me help you.
He says as he helps her get up. She quickly hugs him.
-I love you.
She says.
-I love you too.
He says hugging her too and kissing her cheek. She quickly wraps her feet around his waist and has her head on his neck.
-Don't leave me.
She says in tears. He's still holding her tightly, close to him.
-It won't be for a long time. I'll always be here for you. I will come visit you and you can come see me. We will get through this.
He whispers the last sentence. She nods and gets off of him.

The days pass and it's time for him to go. She wears a beautiful blue with white flowers dress and has her hair in her signature ponytail. She has her new nude high heels on and some natural makeup. He is wearing some khakis pants and a regular s t-shirt.
-I will come visit you whenever I can and call you. Be careful. I love you.
He says hugging her.
-I love you too. Be careful. And I will come visit you when I'll have the chance. I will be careful and take care of both me and the kid.
She says after kissing him. He kisses her back and they makeout. She then pulls away and he pulls her for yet another hug.
-Alright. Be careful boy. I love you.
-I love you too dad.
-See ya soon.
She says with tears in her eyes, he nods and kisses her once again. He then turns away and pulls his suitcase with him. Fp and Betty stand for a little in the airport. Then they leave and get back home.

*End of flashback*

Betty is in her bedroom looking at old pictures and showing them to Juliet.
-So here's dadda. Can you say dadda baby?
-D..da..da.
-Good job Juliet!
Betty says giggling.
-Betty dinner is ready!
She hears Fp yelling from the kitchen.
-Coming right away.
She yells back and takes Juliet on her arms. She gets downstairs and sets Juliet on her chair. She sits down with Fp and start to eat. They get interrupted by the doorbell.
-I'll go answer it.
She says getting up and going towards the door. She opens it.
-Hey Betty!
She immediately falls on top of him.
-Juggie! I missed you so much.
She says with tears in her eyes. He hugs her tightly and kisses her forehead. She then grabs him and kisses him passionately on the lips. He kisses back and then pulls away but still touching his nose on hers.
-I missed you too. And Juliet.
He says getting in. She closes the door and goes to the dining table. Fp and Jughead hug each other and Jughead sits beside Betty.
-Juliet. Hi baby. Come to dadda!
He says with a silly voice.
-She actually told the word 'dadda' today. When I asked her to.
-Really? Can you say dadda one more time Juliet?
-D...adda.
-She said it. She said it.
Jughead says getting up and hugging Juliet close to her. They had lots of fun. As a family.
