chapter twelve

   1 month later

    Betty woke up on jugheads bare chest. She smiled up at him as he slept. She started to roll off the bad when Jughead pulled her back into his chest. She giggled, cuddling up closer to him and kissing him. Jughead smiled into her lips, sitting up.
    "Good morning." He whispered.
    "Good morning." She whispered back. "As much as I'd love to stay here and cuddle, I have to go meet Ronnie and Pea."
    "He's back to Pea?"
    "Well, suddenly I'm not so sad about him anymore."
    Jughead smiled, kissing her again. "If you need me, call or text and I'll pick you up."
    "Okay, Betty said with a smile, pulling on a brown jean skirt and tank top.
    "Hey Betts?"
    "Ya?"
    "do you wanna wear my hoodie?"
    Betty's eyebrows drew together as Jughead stared at her chest. "Are you worried about Pea, Juggie?" Betty asked, crawling onto the bed.
    "Maybe a little bit."
    "Aww, baby," Betty said, sitting in his lap. "You don't have anything to worry about. I promise."
    Jughead tilted his head up, kissing her. "Do you have a few minutes?" He asked, gripping her waist.
    "No, " she said jumping off of him. Betty laughed grabbing jugheads jacket and putting it on, not zipping it up. "But I like your energy."
    Jughead groaned, falling back on his pillow as she left.
    Betty sat on Veronica and Sweetpeas bed remembering when it was her room. Veronica stared unblinking at Betty's nails as she painted them and sweetpea quietly observed.
    "So, how are you guys? I haven't seen you in forever." Betty asked.
    "We're good," Sweetpea muttered.
    "So Sweetpea was against me visiting?"
    "Yup," Veronica said. "His have you been? Any boy drama? Or girl drama? Any drama?"
    "Well, Jughead and I started dating like, a month ago."
    "What?!" Veronica screamed getting nail polish all over Betty's hand. "No, Bee!"
    "Why? Is it because he's your brother? Because before you said-"
    "Bee no, he's crazy. He's possessive and protective, and jealous. It's ended all of his relationships and I bet it will end yours too."
    "No, Juggie isn't like that with me."
    "Bee, if you don't believe me I'll prove it. Come to the bar with Pea and me tonight. Bring Cher, Toni and Jug. I'll put you in one of my dresses. One guy will hit on you and jughead will lose his god damned mind. I'd even let Pea hit on you to prove it. I bet right before you came here he tried to cover you up and get you to stay home. That's just who he is."
    "Get me dressed up," Betty said. "I'll text Jug."
