Betty's POV

'Because despite everything that has happened, the worst thing was losing you, Betty'; he said walking to me, grabbing my hands and holding them. 'I don't deserve this, you, your forgiveness, hell I'm a depressed mother, that isn't good for a child'; I said looking down. 'Betts, you are an amazing mother, Juliet is an amazing, polite, sweet little girl like you, and your right, you don't deserve this'; he said looking at me. 'You deserve so much more, Betty Cooper, will you do the honor and be my girlfriend again'; he asked going down on one knee. 'Of course jug, god I love you'; I said and kissed him, he kissed back and pulled away slowly. 'Betty, was it true what Brett said, that Juliet is the only thing stopping you to you know'; jug asked. I just nodded and looked down. 'Then I am happy you were pregnant, I couldn't bear the thought of loosing you'; he said caressing my cheek. 'Jug'; I whispered leaning against his hand. I couldn't handle the tears anymore and let them fall. 'Oh Betty'; he whispered hugging me, kissing my head. After all these years I didn't have anyone to help me deal with this and now, here I am in the arms of someone who loves me. 'Betts, what's wrong, talk to me'; he said pulling away looking at me concerned. 'I-'....

Jughead's POV

Betty was crying in my arms my heart just broke. I asked her what's wrong and before she could answer, her phone started ringing. She grabbed it and answered. 'Hey Kev....what...omg we will meet you right there' ; she said and hang up. 'Betts, what's wrong' ; I asked. 'It's Juliet, she and Sam were playing in the park and someone pushed her, on purpose, but before Fangs could grab him or her, he left, they are at the hospital right now, because Juliet hurt her ankle, come jug we need to go' ;  she said grabbing her purse and we left.

When we arrived, we both ran trough the hospital doors. 'Where is Juliet Jones'; Betty said. 'What's your relationship with her'; the receptionist asked while checking me out. I felt disgusted. 'We are her god damn parents, now tell me in which room is my daughter'; Betty said annoyed with the receptionist. 'Room 201'; the receptionist said. We both ran to the room. We saw Fangs, Kevin and I assume Sam sitting outside the room. 'Kev'; Betty said, both Kevin and Fangs turned their head looking at us. 'Betty what took you so long'; Kevin asked. 'We would've been here sooner, but the receptionist was to busy checking out Jughead'; Betty said annoyed. I chuckled and Fang and Kevin smirked. 'How is Juliet'; I asked changing subject. 'She's fine, she has a small crack in her ankle, so she will have a cast for 2 weeks, she is sleeping right now, she was worn out'; Fangs said. We both sat down until we heard a familiar voice: 'please help her, she was shot during our show'. Me and Betty both looked at each other and saw a familiar red head. 'Archie'; we both said. He turned his head and looked at us. Before he could say something we heard a familiar voice yell. 'She's my god damn goddaughter, she has my name as middle name for god sake so stop eye-fucking my fiancé and tell me where Juliet's room is'. 'Veronica'; Betty said walking to her hugging her. 'God can you stop eye-fucking fiancé's and fathers and do your damn job'; Betty said and the receptionist scoffed and walked away. I smirked and Reggie did the same. That's my girl. 'Thank you for coming V'; Betty said. 'Archibald'; Veronica said. 'Look Veronica, I'm sorry for what happened, but I can't handle any drama right now'; Archie said. 'Alright, I have more important things to attend to'; Veronica said and walked away. I sighed, walking towards Archie. 'Look, I am incredibly angry, you have no idea, but what happened'; I asked, not wanting to admit that I still cared for this man. 'Jughead I am so sorry'; he started but I cut him off. 'I didn't ask if you were sorry, we are not having this conversation, I asked what happend'. 'You know that Josie and I had a relationship, back in high school'; he asked. I nodded. 'Well, we met in New York and started working together, after a few months we kissed and started dating again, I proposed to her yesterday and we had a performance in Riverdale today, but during rehearsal she was shot'; Archie said and a tear slipped down his face. I sighed. 'Look man, it's gonna be okay, Josie is strong, she will make it, have you called her mother and Kevin's dad and maybe you should tell Kevin, he is also in the hospital right now'; I said. 'I will and why are you, Betty, Veronica, Reggie, Fangs and Kevin in the hospital anyway'; he asked. Before I could answer a nurse came in the hallway: 'Juliet Jones is awake, where are her parents'. 'Look I have to go, Kevin will tell you the details and tell him about Josie'; I said and left.

When I opened the door, I saw Betty sitting in a chair next to the bed, Juliet had a Nancy Drew book. I chuckled, just like her mother. 'Hey Betts'; I said. 'Hey jug'; she said looking at me. I motioned her to come. When we were in the corner of the room she asked: 'what's wrong'. 'How are we gonna explain why I am here'; I asked hoping she would say that we would tell Juliet that I am her father. 'Well, we could tell her who you are, if you are up to that'; she said looking at me with her big green eyes. I smiled kissed her and said: 'let's tell her'. We walked to Juliet and she looked up to us. 'Mommy who is that, I've never seen you with a boy other then uncle Kev and Fangs'; she said. We both sat down. 'I am your mother's friend, Jughead'; I said and Juliet giggled. I could tell that Betty was nervous so I held and squeezed her hand. She smiled at me and said: 'honey, you know how you always ask why you don't have a daddy'. Juliet nodded. 'Baby, this is your daddy'; Betty said.
