Did You Miss Me?

Epilogue

Jughead's POV-

I sit in my room in the trailer with my head in my hands. I can't do this. "Boy! Are you packed? Your gonna be late for the bus!" my dad yells through the house. I'm  leaving Riverdale. I'm going to live with with my mom in Toledo. After my dad found out about everything me and Betty did during the Jason Blossom investigation and the Black Hood, he said he was gonna ship me off. At first, I thought he was joking. Until he bought the bus tickets. I grab my suitcase and backpack and go outside. "I need to see Betty first" I say and sit in the back of his police cruiser.

We pull up to the Cooper house and I try to swallow the lump in my throat. Mrs. Cooper's car wasn't in the driveway, but I knew Betty would be home. I go around and climb up the ladder she keeps for me by the window. I knock on the window and it quickly opens. "Hey Juliet" I sigh. She smiles to me and sits back on her bed with her homework. I sit on her desk chair. "What's wrong" she immediately asks. I scowl slightly. She can read me like an open book. "We need to talk" I say to her. "Ok?" she says hesitantly. "I think we need... to break up. I'm leaving for Toledo today, and I don't think I will be coming back." I tell her, avoiding her broken gaze. "What?" she asks. "I'm so sorry. But really, how much longer were we going to last?" I lie to her. I hate myself for it and I immediately regret my words. "Get out!" she says, firmly. "Betts..." I start she stops me.

"Get. Out. Now. You don't ever get to call me that again. Go, now" she says quietly but sternly. I go out the window and she slams it shut. I hear it lock and the blinds close. Tears start forming in my eyes and I climb down the ladder. When I go back, I quickly wipe away any sign I was crying. I get in the back of the car and slam the door shut in anger. If my dad didn't make me move, me and Betty would still be together. "You ready?" my dad asks and I nod. "Yeah, I'm ready." I sign. Goodbye Riverdale.

Betty's POV-

I slam the window shut and start crying. I never want to see Jughead Jones again. "But really how much longer were we going to last" he said, the words echoing in my mind. That asshole. He left me all alone here. He'll regret leaving Riverdale. He'll regret leaving me. Because I know Jughead Jones. He'll never forget us. He left me alone when I needed him. And he just walked away. Just like everyone else in my life. Just walking away.
