Betty p.o.v
As soon as I heard the loud snores coming from the bedroom, I sprung up. I sprinted towards Bekha's room. I saw her sleeping soundly on her bed and smiled a little. It felt like she was my only light in this dark world I'm living in.¹

I walked to the side of her bed and shook her awake. she opened her eyes and looked at but closed them again and went back to sleep. I let her sleep a few more minutes as I packed all our things. 

Soon I was done and I walked back over to her, I put my hand softly on her cheek, and stroke it a little, "baby we need to go" I whispered to her, my voice shaking a little. And I don't know if It's from fear or relief.

She opened her eyes and yawned, rubbing her eyes. I picked her up and carried her downstairs before going back up to get the rest of our stuff. 

I grab both our coats, and put hers on. I see her looking at me, with questioning eyes but she is too tired to ask anything now. When I was in my coat, I lifted her back in my arms and I felt her head resting against my chest. her eyes falling close again as she fell asleep in my arms.

I walked outside with all our luggage and closed the door quietly behind me. I locked it and then started down the road. The bus station wasn’t too far away but it was a little more difficult carrying a child and a bunch of suitcases. 

Soon I arrived at the station. And I let out a breath of relief when I saw that the bus is almost empty. I walked up to the bus and climbed with difficulty into it, I gave my two tickets to the grumpy looking chauffeur and walked down the small path. I take a seat almost at the end of the bus, and place Bekha down at the seat next to me.

After about 10 minutes the bus started to move. I finally felt like I could breathe again. I sat back in my seat and sighed. I looked to my side where my beautiful daughter was slowly falling back asleep. I stroked her head a few times until she fully fell back asleep again. 

I gave her head a kiss, before turning a little and resting my head against the cold window. As the bus drove away I tought about every memory I had here, I tought about how nice Chuck was in the beginning. About how he bought me flowers, and took care of me when I was pregnant.

Then my mind wanders back, how I saw him changing every day. I saw his eyes getting darker, until the last light totally disappeared. And the only thing left was a cold and cruel man.

I can’t believe after all these years I'm finally going back to Riverdale. back to how I was before, when I was with all my old friends and with Jughead. I miss him and all my other friends. I don’t know how everyone will feel about me coming back after so long. 

I don't even know if he's still there, if any of them are still there. I could still see the disappointment in his eyes, when I told him that I couldn't go with him to new york. I can still feel the emptiness in my heart, I loved Chuck but the empty feeling Jughead gave me when he left was never filled.

I could feel the bus slowing down. I grabbed the luggage that was lying by my feet and got ready to get off. As soon as the bus doors opened, I stood, picked Bekha up and walked stepped on the Riverdale pavement for the first time in years. 

The sky is still dark, and the moon is the only light sores on this path. I make my way over, and I surprise myself a little with still knowing the whole way. It doesn't feel like coming back to a strange town. It feels like finally coming home.

I could hear Bekha’s snores as I walked along the path. It was silent, there weren't any cars passing or people walking, it was just quiet. My arms felt really sore from carrying Bekha and our suitcases but I kept going. 

Soon I stopped in front of the house, I was walking towards. My breathing stopped for a second and I stared at the familiar house that stands in front of me. I doubt he still lives here tho, but I need to try. He is my only chance left.

I raised my fist to the door but I didn’t knock. I stood there for almost a minute before I finally gathered the courage to knock. I waited a few more seconds before I heard movement from the other side. 

And before I knew it, the door opened and I heard myself gasp a little. In Front of me, is the boy who broke my heart three years ago, the boy who decided that New York was more important than me. I stare at him, and take in his features, he has gotten older but for me he's still the same weirdo as he was 3 and a half years ago.

He looked just as shocked as I probably did. I knew I was sort of expecting him to be here but now I know he is and it feels sort of strange seeing him after all this time. 

I see him staring at me, before his eyes wander off towards the sleeping girl in my arms. His eyes held so many questions, as he stared at the girl that was obviously not his. 

“Hi Jug.”

"Hey Betts"
