"Get out of here before we actually kill you." I couldn't get up. Everything hurt. The kicks that collided with my stomach and chest made it hard to even breathe. "NOW!" Penny yelled furiously. It took all my strength to push myself up off the ground. I blocked out all of the pain and stood up quickly, running away. The pain was getting to me again after a few seconds of running so I stopped. I turned around afraid they were all staring at me but they were back to their normal lives, laughing at each other and heading back into the ghoulie hangout like nothing had happened. I turned back around and continued to walk away. Within seconds of walking away, I felt a hot burning liquid going down my face in streaks. I was crying. Something I rarely did. I thought the ghoulies were my family. They were there for me when my parents died and I had nowhere else to go. I guess they really aren't my real family and friends. I do one stupid mission and fail at it and this is what I get after everything I've done for them. I just kept walking trying to forget about everything that was happening. Why was I such an idiot. I knew the ghoulies weren't my friends or a family to me, I lost the only real friends and family I had because of this stupid mission. I stopped walking when I felt cold droplets of water hit my head. Great it was raining. I lifted my head and saw bright lights that read out "Whyte Wyrm." I shouldn't go in there. I shouldn't. Betty don't do it. I have to go. I don't wanna die. Not yet at least. I can fix this can't I. Without realizing, I was already heading for the door to the bar. I grabbed the handle and pushed the door open holding my right side because the pain was starting to hurt even more. I was limping, struggling to get inside. Once I got in, the door shut with a loud slam, the music turned off, I looked up and all eyes were on me. I shifted my head left and right and all I could see were faces of disgust. "Please, help me." I managed to whisper out. Nothing. No one moved."Please." I was so close to falling on the ground until I saw Toni walking towards me with worry written all over her face. "Please." I said one last time letting out a loud sob. "SWEET PEA GET OVER HERE." Toni yelled looking at me. I just looked down, I didn't wanna see her face if there was any sign of disappointment. Next thing I knew I was being lifted by someone. That's when I passed out.

When I woke up, I was in a room. I was laying on a bed with a blanket over top of me. I got up slowly and saw Toni and Sweet pea sitting at the edge of the bed. I let out a cough and both of them shot their head towards me. When I saw their faces I wanted to cry. All I saw was hatred. I couldn't bare to look at their faces so I looked down. "Uh, how long was I out?" I said, still looking down. "For about two hours." Sweet pea replied coldly. "Thank you. For helping me, I don't know what I would've-" "Cut the crap Betty." Toni said. I looked up. "We didn't help you because we forgave you. We helped you because we didn't want death on our hands. We could've let the other serpents kill you." Sweet Pea said not looking at me. I looked at Toni and all she did was shake her head. "Why'd you do it Betty. Why did you betray me. Betray Jughead. Why'd you betray all of us? You know you were my best friend. I trusted you with so much and then one day I come into the bar and find out you were using all of us. How you were just spying on us. You know how fucked up that is." Toni said starting to cry. I had tears in my eyes. I sat there for a couple seconds, thinking of what to say first. "I did it for money. I was at a low point in my life. I know it's no excuse but I was. My parents had just died and I had nowhere to go. I found the ghoulies one day and they took me in. They gave me food and they helped me. A week after that, they told me I had my first "mission". I was supposed to join the serpents and figure out all of your secrets and basically spy on you guys for them. They told me that if I completed this mission they would pay me a lot and that I could get out of this place and start a new life and that's all I wanted. A new start. That's the only reason why I accepted it. And then I actually met you guys and jughead and had a real conversation with you. I realized you guys were nice people and that I was so fucked up to be doing this to you. So I stopped the spying but I still wanted to be friends with you and I still wanted the relationship I had with jughead. I realized that I loved him and that you guys were more of a family than anyone else was to me and that I couldn't keep doing this. I tried to tell you guys for weeks but I was to afraid. I was scared. And then the day I was actually going to tell you guys, Jughead found out about it by one of the ghoulies. I felt numb. I didn't know what to do. And then you guys kicked me out and I never got a chance to explain. You guys said you hated me." By this point I was full on crying. I didn't mean to hurt them. I looked over at Sweet pea and Toni and they both had tears in their eyes. "Well how'd you end up here." Sweets asked, sniffling. "A week after you guys found out, I didn't go back to the ghoulies. I was scared. They trusted me and I let them down. But you guys also trusted me and I let you down. I was gonna run away but I felt like they would find me. So today I went back to the ghoulies hangout. I walked in and said I was done and said that I failed my task. I told them how I wasn't hurting anybody anymore and that i wanted out of this stupid gang. They didn't like that, so they beat me. I was crying so hard and I kept screaming. Then they told me to go before they killed me. So I got up and ran. And I ended up here." I said, finally letting out a sob at the end. I heard Toni let out a sob too. I looked up and saw Sweets looking back at me. "I know that what I did was unforgivable but I want to be friends again. If you want me out of here, I'll go. I understand. I just want you guys to know that I'm sorry and I didn't mean to let what happen, happen. I know it's gonna take a lot of time to trust me again but if you could let me be your friends again, I would be so happy." I said, showing nervous smile. "Betty....." Toni said, looking at me and wiping her tears away. I looked down. I knew they were gonna say no. But it was worth a shot I guess. "I understand. Just know that I'm sorry. And can you tell jughead that I'm sorry and that I love him, so so much." I stood up and set the blanket down on the bed. I started to limp to the door but was stopped by Sweets and Toni. "Betty stop." I turned around and they came running towards me, pulling me into a hug. We were all crying. "I'm sorry." I said one last time. Sweets was the first to pull away, then me and Toni. I looked at both of them and saw a smile on their faces. "You know cooper you're a tough one." Toni said giving me a smirk. "I mean I get it from the best Toni." I laughed wiping a tear away. "We love you and all but, well you've given us an apology and we accepted it. But now I think you should apologize to Jughead. He deserves it. He's a mess." Sweets said. "Yea I should do that. Do you know where he is?" I said looking down, I was nervous. "He's in his office, and I don't think he could never stay mad at you." Toni said giving me one last hug and a comforting smile. "Okay, wish me luck and thank you for giving me another chance." I spoke with a smile. I gave them each a hug and started heading towards jugheads office which was difficult since my whole body still hurt. I was walking until I got to the door that leads into his office. I took a deep breath and knocked. I heard a deep "Come in" so I grabbed the door knob and opened the door slowly. I walked in and jugheads head was still looking down at his laptop. "Juggie can we talk?"
