Archie's POV

Jaylynn being pregnant was a shock for sure, but I still love her and I want her to know that. Though she doesnt love me at all she made that pretty clear the night we... Well I guess the night after we made our child.

"Archie you okay? You havent eaten." My mom says.

"Sorry just alot on my mind." I say.

"Like a certain serpent girl who is pregnant with your child?" She questions.

"Yeah. We didnt end every well." I say.

"You know I saw how you two were together. Like when you two thought I wasnt around and just did couple things around the house. You two seemed so together, but I dont understand what happened after that." She says.

"I told Jaylynn I loved her and she freaked out. She acted all weird and then I might of said something stupid. She got mad, hit me, said she hated me, and left. She didnt speak to me until I heard the news about the baby." I say.

"Well to me it looked like she cared about you too, but she's a Jones. They are very stubborn people. FP and Gladys are both stubborn especially when it comes to love. So its no surprise that one of their kids acts the same. Though Jaylynn did get hurt by SweetPea who she loved. So maybe she was just scared that it would happen again." She says.

"Or she doesnt love me and hates me for putting a child in her." I say.

"Theres only one way to find out." She says.

I noticed my phone was flashing Jaylynn's name and when I answered it she said she was hungry and Jughead wouldnt bring her any food. So I went to Pop's got the food and headed over to Jaylynn's.

"This is the Southside. No Northsiders allowed." SweetPea says.

"Thats not a rule. Now if you'll excuse me Jaylynn needs me." I say.

"No she doesnt. She needs someone who is more on her alley. Not some one night stand." He says.

"Enough you two. SweetPea go away before I put you on suspension from the serpents. Andrews my daughter is waiting for you." FP says.

I didnt say another word I just went inside and heard FP saying things to SweetPea, but I wasnt sure what. I mostly heard him say he should of ended SweetPea when he hurt Jaylynn. That I can agree with.

"Hey Jaylynn, heres your food." I say.

"Wow your late." Jaylynn says.

"SweetPea had some choice words for me. So how are you today?" I ask.

"Well I've been alittle ill this morning, but Im fine now." She says.

"You sure?" I ask.

"Yeah it was the egg smell this morning that made me sick. But my mom and dad cleared out the smell as Jellybean held my hair back for me. Jughead however just wrote his book instead." She says.

"Look can we talk about..." I start but she cuts me off.

"Where our child will be raised? Cause thats a major thing for me right now. I mean look at where we are both from? Southside and Northside. I mean how do we even do this?" She asks eating her food.

"Well we will cross that bridge when we get closer to our baby coming." I say.

"Yeah I guess, but... Why are you staring at me?" She asks.

"You have alittle.... Here let me." I say.

I used a napkin and wiped the food off her face.

"Thanks. Hey can I ask you something?" She asks.

"Sure. I guess." I say.

"Our child is a serpent by blood. My parents, my brother, and I are serpents does that bother you? Does it bother you that our child might be a serpent one day?" She asks.

"Well no that doesnt bother me at all. I dont have anything against Serpents. Does it bother you that one day our child might be a serpent?" I ask.

"Actually yes. Dont get me wrong I love being a serpent and I love my family and I love my fellow serpents, but its not a life I would want for our child. Its scary and dangerous. If our child chooses to be a serpent then I'll be okay with it. I just hope he or she chooses it for the right reasons." She says.

"Well we wont have to worry about that for a long time." I say.

"Yeah your right." She says.

She placed her head on my shoulder and I kissed the top of her head. Maybe right now isnt the best time to tell her that I still want to be with her. Even if I did tell her she would think its about the baby and push me away again. Maybe all we will ever be are friends with a child.
