I walk across the hall to Betty's room where Hershey is laying on his bed. Betty is nowhere to be seen. I walk down the hall and into her room. A young girl is sitting on her bed watching a movie while she does some work on her computer. After we all graduated I went back to my house, got my stuff and brought it back, finally moving here permanently. It's mine and Bettys tap year anniversary today but we decided to just stay in tonight. Who the kid is...still a mystery.
"Hey, Betts. Who is this one?"
She slightly jumps and turns around. I see she's working on her schedule for next week. She started working at Riverdale high as an English and Art teacher last year.
"My niece, Maya. Charles's daughter. Juniper and Dagwood, Polly's kids, are being dropped off later." She stands up. "I'm sorry, I know tonight was supposed to be just us, but Polly and Charles are both stumped, between her nursing and his work with the FBI, they just both needed a night off and I told them that they could just drop the kids off here."
"Can I talk to you outside?"
She nods and we walk into her living room. Hershey's head pops up.
"Betty, if you just got the kids to avoid being intimate that's fine. I understand."
She smiles at me. "Juggie, that's not it at all...well kind of. I was going to take to you, but I have a group chat with Polly and Charles and they actually are both off on Sunday so I thought you could come and meet my family, which basically just consists of Polly, Charles and my dad."
"Not that I'm...upset or anything but when do you think you will be ready?"
"I don't know, soon, I promise."
"It doesn't have to be soon, it's completely up to you and how comfortable you are."
"Thank you, Juggie. I know guys don't like to take things as slow as we are. I really appreciate it."
"Anything for you, Betty." I turn and walk to the door.
"Juggie."
"Yeah?"
I turn around to face her.
"I love you."
I feel a smile spread across my face and I run over to her, lifting her onto my waist and kissing her. "I love you too. More than anything in this entire universe. I love you some much Betty."
She giggles and cups my face, kissing me. "Good, because you're kind of stuck with me now."
"There is nobody I would rather be stuck with."
