My Everything ~ Jarchie

Thirty-Four

It's the day before the wedding, and I am scared out of my fucking mind, I am scared, not about marrying him, I'm excited about that, maybe it's just wedding nerves. Archie already left for is a party with the guys, he and the football team are going to some bar god knows where Archie promised that he wouldn't get too drunk. But the church part about the wedding is at one so if he ends up drunk he will be fine. Now me on the other hand, I am currently going to the White Wyrm, dad said tonight he would stay at the trailer because he knows me and the Serpents are going to trash the bar.

I walked into the bar, I could hear everyone cheer, "okay enough you guys" I turn my head, I can't believe it, there I see Betty and Veronica, Toni, and Cheryl. I'm not really surprised they came honestly, it will be better with them of course. Sweet Pea already looks like he had one too many, but is that going to stop him from drinking more? Absolutely not. Fangs on up on the stage, "alright everyone shut up for a second, just wanted to say I am so happy for Jughead that he and the ginger are finally tying the knot" I laughed along with many others, "but aside from that, let's get this party going!" Everyone cheered as the bartender started serving drinks, and eventually the bartender was just letting people take bottles. Fangs decided it would be funny to bring over two bottles of whiskey, oh no. Me, Betty, Veronica, Cheryl, Sweet Pea, and Fangs were sat around the table. Fangs placed down the bottles and shot glasses, he poured everyone a shot, "to a fun night that we won't remember because will be too drunk" everyone laughed and nodded, we all took the shot.

We shared funny jokes that night, Cheryl and Toni talked about the Poisons how were going to have a very good peace treaty, Betty and Veronica sharing hilarious moments from high school. Altogether it was fun, I didn't get drunk, at least that drunk where I can't remember anything like Sweet Pea and Fangs did, me and Veronica laughed as we watched the bartender barely being able to stand because clearly, he had too much fun as much as the rest of us.

But eventually, the fun had to end sadly, so at one I headed to the trailer, Archie and I agreed that if we both were too drunk we would stay somewhere, Archie would stay at whoever's house was closest and I had already planned on staying here. My dad laughed as I walked through the door a little wobbly. Dad smiled at me, "so how was it?" I smiled, "it was fun, really" "well you should get to bed, your special day is tomorrow."

I looked up at him, "hey dad?" He looked up at me, "do you think I'm too young to be getting married?" He nodded in disagreement, "normally, if you were marrying somebody that wasn't Archie, yes. But you too have dated since you were sixteen, you too knew each other when you were little. I mean if you love him and I mean you really love him then don't worry about age, it's a number. I'm not saying it doesn't matter, but with you and him, you two have wanted this since nineteen, it's your dream, so go live it."

I nodded, "thanks dad" I teared up, he started to as well, "dad don't cry" he laughed, "I'm sorry, it's just that sometimes I still see that four year old with a stuffed dog in is hand, I forget that you aren't a kid anymore" "I haven't really grown up though dad not really, I still see myself as sixteen."

Dad smiled as he wiped a tear, "I still see that boy who would sleep with Hot Dog, play cards with Jelly Belly, still carefree" I smiled, "thanks dad."

After a few minutes when he went to bed I walked down the hall into his old bedroom, he still threw his used clothes on the desk, place his phone next to the TV, been doing that since he was fourteen, then, I began to tear up as I looked in his arms was Hot Dog, cuddling with Jughead.

I swear I saw him as a little boy, it's hard knowing that your baby isn't really a baby anymore, but always will be to you. Will always be your son, always will see that little boy who played cards with his sister, played with Hot Dog, and was so carefree.
