Secrets 2.0 (Peter and Betty/Petty fanfiction)

Chapter 6

"nurse off duty?" Jug climbed into my room "you haven't gone full yellow wallpaper on me yet have you?

I sighed. "they're crazy, my parent are crazy."

"They're parents," he replied "they're all crazy."

"But, but what if Polly is too? The way she was talking to me, the way she looked at me, and now all I am think about is maybe I'm crazy liek they are."

Jughead put his hands on my shoulder. I sighed feeling calmed by his touch.

"We're all crazy, but we are not our parents betty" he said.

I shook head my.

"We're not our families."

I nodded.

"Also,"

"What?" I looked at him. He didn't say anything.

"What?" I asked.

In the background, I heard Alice saying something downstairs, but I didn't hear what.

Jug put his hand on my face and kissed me. I kissed him back and smiled.

"Oh, sorry." A voice said.

Suddenly I remembered something and pulled away from him.

"The car!"

"Wow, that's what your thinking about in the middle of our moment?"

"No, Polly had talked about a car Jason had stashed for them, down route 40, near some sign. If we can find it, we can confirm Polly's story. I need to know Juggie."

"Okay, let's go." We turned to head out.

Peter was standing at the door, looking really confused.

Peters POV
I was on my way over to Betty's house. I was failing English and she had planned to help me study.

"Okay, the white one with the red door." I said to myself. "Should be this one."

I walked towards the door and knocked. Her mom opened the door.

"Hi, I'm Peter, I'm here to see Betty."

"For what reason?" She asked.

"She was going to help me with English." I answered.

"Alright," She opened the door for me to come in. "Betty! Peters here for you! He's coming upstairs now"

Betty didn't answer. I thought she would have called back, but it doesnt matter.

"Just up the stairs and turn right"

"Thank you, Ms. Cooper." I called and went upstairs. "Betty?"

I turned right. There was only one room on that side. There door was open, so I walked to he entrance.

"Oh, sorry" Betty and Jughead were kissing. I don't think they heard me.

I was standing there awkwardly. They hadn't noticed I was there yet. It kind of hurt seeing Jughead and Betty together. I thought Betty and I were getting closer.

They pulled away from each other. They still hadn't noticed.

I just stood there without moving. I didn't know what to do. They were talking about looking for some car. I was really confused.

Betty turned to leave and saw me.

Betty's POV
Peter was standing at the door. Them I remembered.

"Oh my gosh, Peter I'm so sorry, I forgot we planned this." I mentally hit myself in the head.

"Um..we can do this another time if you want?" Peter said.

"No, no, this is my fault, Jug we can go tomorrow."

Jughead left, climbing out the window.

"Is, uhh, what?" I pointed at the window where Jughead had left.

"Parker, if you tell my mom, I will hurt you."

Peter puts his hands up, surrendering.

"Not a word from me."

I laughed and grabbed my stuff form my desk.

"So how what was Queens like?" I asked.

"It was nice. I did a stark internship there." He said.

I looked up from my paper, suddenly more interested.

"Tony Stark right?

"Yeah."

"How is he?" I asked, not realizing what I had said.

"How is he? Do you know him?" Peter asked.

"Oh, no. I meant how is he as a person. " Nice save Betty.

"I've only met him once. But uhh..... So you and Jones?"

"Yeah, yeah I guess so." I replied.

Peter looked disappointed for a second.

"We should hang out more. I would love to get to know you."

"That's sound nice.'

My phone rang.

"Hello?"

"Is this Betty?"

"Yeah. Who is this?"

"Cheryl, duh"  I could picture her rolling her eyes as she said that. "anyways I'm having a pool party on Saturday."

"Um, Cheryl it's November why are you having a pool party, and why am I being invited?'

"Okay, first I checked the weather it's going to be warm, and don't think you're special or something, the whole grade or year is invited, you hobo."

"Okay Ill-" Cheryl hung up.

That's was weird.

"Peter, Cheryl's having a pool party on Saturday, we are supposed to go." I explained.

I helped Peter for another hour. He seemed to be understanding.

When he left, I called Jughead. I met him at pops and we went to find the car.

Peters POV
I was hurt that Betty was with Jughead. Well I mean we are friends, but I thought we always had something more.

As always, PE was terrible. Reggie's always being an ass to me for some reason.

I was pretty excited for the pool party though. I wondered what Betty was wearing.

And so, the week went by quickly. Soon, it was Saturday. It was sunny and warm outside. I threw on a pair of swim trunks and a red and white top. I left the buttons undone because for some reason, it was boiling outside.

I arrived at Cheryl's house.
