— JUGHEAD'S POV —

I carry Betty to my bike and place her on it. I then sit in front of her.

J: Hold on.

She wraps her arms around me right as Toni speeds off. I then speed off behind her, still trying to be careful not to tear Betty's stitches. 10 minutes later, we get to Toni's trailer. I get off my bike and pick Betty up.

B: Seriously?
J: Yup. Don't argue.
B: *sighs* Fine.

I carry her inside and gently place her onto Toni's couch.

B: Thank you.
J: I thought that you didn't want me to carry you?
B: Shut up.
J: Well, you're welcome.
B: *giggles*
T: How are you?
B: Well, I've felt better, but I think I'm okay.
T: Are you sure? I'm pretty sure that you did a little bit of sudden movement on the way here.
B: True, but I'm okay.

Betty gives us that smile that could light up a room.

J: *sighs*
T: I need to go to Pop's and get some food, anyone want anything?
J: No, I'll go. I owe you, anyways.
T: Ugh. Fine. I'll have a root beer float and cheeseburger with fries.
J: Okay. Betty?
B: Uhhh... I'll have a vanilla milkshake and a grilled cheese with fries.
J: Okay. I'll call them, pick it up, and be right back. Bye
T: Bye
B: Bye Jug.

I then left to go to Pop's and got us dinner.

— TONI'S POV —

When he left, I knew that this was the perfect time to finish our conversation. I open my mouth to speak, but Betty read my mind. She shook her head disapprovingly.

T: Fine. We are going to finish that conversation at some point.
B: I know, just not now. It's been a long day, and I'm exhausted.

When she said that, I realized the amount of exhaustion in her eyes. I sit down next to her on the couch, right next to the arm of the couch, and Betty laid her head on my shoulder.

T: Here.

I grab a small pillow and put it on my lap. She smiles at me and slowly lays her head down on my lap, with her body laying across the couch.

B: Thanks.
T: No problem. You can go to sleep, you look exhausted.

I then see her eyes slowly flutter closed, she sighs, and then a few minutes later, I feel her fully relax, which means that she's asleep. Cute.

- 10 minutes later -

Then, suddenly the door opened. I turn around to see that it's Jug, and give him "the look" to shut the fuck up. I signal to Betty asleep on my lap and he places the food into my fridge and comes around. He looks like he wants that to be him, so I slowly lift the pillow holding her head and let him take my place. She wakes up. Shit.

B: *sleepily* what...?
J: *whispers softly* hey, it's me. It's okay.

She smiles then gets up slowly and he turns so that he's facing her and she snuggles up into him. He wraps his arms around her gently and as Betty's eyes slowly flutter closed he gives me the 'ok' and I leave them alone to be cute, even if I wanted to watch ☹︎.
