Jughead & Betty Jones The Start since Middle School

Chapter 2

Betty's Perspective (Hand Written)

Dear Dairy, Its the weekend and I have no idea how I didn't notice before but  I should've figured I mean my parents are always fighting they try not to fight in from of me as I am still in middle school and they think I don't understand anything but I am a lot smarter than they think. I see them bickering in the corner I hear them in the middle of the night and I see the glares they send one another I don't know what its about but I know its there I also don't really like my dad especially right now all he does is drink and hit my mom one time he almost hit me but my mom was there to keep him away even if it meant that she was going to get hit. So I was glad when they told me that they were getting a divorce and my dad was moving out of the house I pretended to be hurt but understanding when they told me but in reality I was overjoyed. My dad is going to be moving out next week and will be moving to Los Angles with his new girlfriend who happens to be 2 months pregnant with his baby. Which now that I think about it is probably why they are fighting.

Jughead's Perspective (Typed Out)

I would be lying if I said I wasn't nervous me and my dad move to Riverdale tomorrow Sunday morning and I have to go to school Monday which I am terrified about but also excited to see if I can make friends. My school if called South Side High they teach grades 6th-12th since I am in 8th grade I will be going there. I did a lot of research on the town of Riverdale and the school I found out that the South side of the town is the poor side of town they have 1 school and that is South side High any grade lower than the ones they teach they have to go to the other side of town to Riverdale Elementary. The other side of town is much nicer it has a High school Middle school and Elementary and the houses are nice but expensive which is why I think my dad choose to live on the South side its cheap and ruined I don't think I am going to like living there but maybe I can make friends so I will give it a chance. 

It's Sunday and we are on our way to Riverdale I am nervous but i'm happy to get a fresh start me and my dad are going to be living in a trailer park near the school so I can walk to and from school with no problem.

Jughead I know that the Southside of town is bad and broken down but its the only thing I can offered right now I am going to look for a good job and try my best to move into the North Side but its expensive but I will try my best

I know dad Its fine as long as I know your trying its not like mom ever really cared. How do you know about this town anyways its so small.

I grew up here I know every inch of this town like the back of my hand it brings back a lot of good and bad memorize from the past mostly good but you know everyone's childhood has a flaw. Hopefully some old friends can get me a job somewhere.

Lets hope dad and please try you best to not drink please I don't like it when you do

Jughead I promise to not drink anymore I am starting to sober up boy

I know dad I just want you keep it up   

I fell asleep the rest of the way and wake woke up when the car came to a stop. I look out the window and see a trailer. I get out of the car and get my gym bag that has my laptop and a bunch of clothes in it I go walk inside but the door is locked I look up to my dad and see him getting the bigger bags out of the trunk he looks at me and throws the key like if he know what I was going to say I unlock the door and see that it is small but big enough for me and my dad but there is only one room which is concerning cause I do not want to share with him. I also notice that it is full of picture of my dad when he was younger and this other girl which looks like they are about the same age. In some they look like a couple and in some they look like best friends. They are not kissing or anything they are just hugging and cuddling  and look close so  I was just guessing it seems like a place my dad knew very well like if he lived here before. I hear my dad walk into the already furnished trailer and look around smiling.

Dad did you live here

Yeah me and Alice Cooper god I miss her I think she still lives here with her family and I think she owns the Riverdale Register 

Like you and her together where you guys dating 

No we where best friends in high school we both got jobs and moved out of our parents places and got our own she stayed while I left Riverdale and meet your mom.   

Oh so you guys are best friends nothing romantic ever happened between you too or are there stories

no nothing romantic she is like my sister I would protect her with my life and she would protect me with hers 

ok but there is only one room did you guys share 

no she had the room while slept on the pull out couch like we are you will take the room while I sleep on the couch until we move to the North Side when ever that is 

oh ok 

yeah so get your stuff and get ready for tomorrow cause you have school I will try to get in contact with old friend to find a job ok 

ok dad good night I think im just going to unpack tomorrow after school if that ok 

that's fine good night

I walked into the bedroom and see a bed and pass out right before setting my alarm for 6:00 am for school tomorrow.
