With You

Going For a Break

Bettys POV:

   I felt the bed sink in next to me. I knew it must've been Jughead. I was so upset and terrified of my father. I hated him for what he done to me.

    Today when Jughead seen me cutting myself I was overwhelmed with guilt. I didn't want to even open my mouth to speak to anyone. I hated myself now. Even more than I hated my father. I just wanted it to all be over. Jughead started to talk "Baby, I understand if you don't want to talk, but Betty I just"
I interrupted him "I'm s-sorry Juggie, I c-couldn't help it" I sobbed. "Baby come here" he said. I turned and got as close to him as I could. "I hate myself because I done that Jug, I'm scared and I don't
know how to react if he is looking for me" I continued and sobbed

    He didn't do anything other than rub my back and hug me tightly. I sobbed so hard for what seemed like hours. "I love you" I said as I felt myself drift into a deep sleep.

Time Pass

     "Goodmorning baby" i heard Juggie day and soon felt lips against my forehead. I was still upset for what I done to myself. I couldn't keep letting other people effect me like that. I let my eyes use open and seen him staring at me with loving eyes. "Hey" I groaned and shut my eyes again. A few moments later I felt him lift up my arm that was wrapped in a bandage from the cuts. At that I jolted up and looked at him. I seen sadness in his eyes and I felt it to. "Ugh Jug I'm sorry, I shouldn't have done it. I'm just so scared" I said, my word followed by a long yawn. "It's ok baby" jug told me and pulled me into a hug.

Jugheads POV:

      She fell right back asleep while we hugged. I felt so bad for her. I loved her so much and I couldn't bare watching her go through this. I just wanted her to be happy but that seems impossible right now. I laid her down on the bed softly and covered her up again. "Love you Juliet" I whispered and placed a kiss on her forehead again before heading downstairs. "Morning boy, how is she?" Dad asked as I seen him in the kitchen. "Terrified of her dad" I answered. He put his head down in his hands and groaned. "We need to do something about that don't we" dad said. "Yes, soon dad" I told him. I wanted this out of the way as soon as possible.

    "Well, Betty needs something to take her mind off of this" he told me "how about get some friends and go somewhere for fall break, I don't know just. Take her away from here for a couple days at least" he said. "Where?" I asked him curiously. "Uh maybe the lake. Take Sweets camper" he said. At that we agreed that in 3 days we would leave. We got our friends together and Betty seemed excited. Part of me knew she was still very hurt and scared, but she wouldn't admit it to me, or herself for that matter.

3 days
Bettys POV:

   Things have been great these few days...ok well not great but they've been good. Well...the have been better than usual. School hasn't been terrible and now we are out for fall break. Jughead is wanting to go somewhere with our friends this whole week which seems nice. My dad hasn't shown up yet, but I can't stop thinking about it. What if he finds out where I'm at this week and comes for me? What happens if he hurts Jughead? I'm constantly worrying about this. I am just terrified. "Betty! Toni called from in front of me. I jumped away from my thoughts and wiped a tear from my eyes. "Y-yea?" I answered quickly.

    Toni then pointed up the stage where Jughead and Fp were. I had been sitting at the bar with her. Jughead has this look on his face. He seemed upset by something. Everyone was quiet and looking at me. "What is it?" I asked loudly where more people could hear. "Could you come up here?" Fp asked. I was confused as to why everyone seemed so weird. They all just stared at me in silence. I stood up and walked to the stage where I was greeted by Jughead with a small kiss. "We will be back in 4 days, dad is in changes till then" Jughead said I to the microphone. I smiled at him as we exited the stage.

   We all loaded onto the camper and took off towards Riverdales nearest lake. Which wasn't to far from here. It was just in Greendale, but that is also where the ghoulies are. The ghoulies are just a rival gang, but usually they aren't much of a problem is what Jugheads tells me. I sat right beside Juggie on the camper and soon felt myself drifting off to sleep.

35 Mins

    "Right up there on the left" Veronica told sweet Pea who was driving. We pulled into a beautiful log house with the most amazing view of the lake. "Betts" Jughead said and shook me a bit. I had just barely woken up from my lap. I stood up from him and got ready to get off of the camper. I hated being in cars for that long. We all piled out and made our way inside. There were planets of rooms for everyone. Toni and Cheryl would share. Sweet Pea and Veronica would share. And lastly me and Jughead of course. I loved this place don't get me wrong but something still felt off.

    I slumped down on the bed which earned a weird look from Jug. "Baby, what's wrong?" He asked and sat beside me. "I know we are here for a break, but it's hard for me to not worry about him" I told Jug and bit the insides of my mouth. "Hey Betty...I won't let anything happen to you, ok?" He asked and loved some hair out of my face. If I were being honest, I didn't believe him completely, how could I. "I promise everything is going to be ok" he did usher and gave me a hopeful look.

    "Ok" I answered. He smiled at me happily and pulled me up from the bed. "Let's go get our bags then"
