Jughead: how is she doing like actually?
Nurse: Hon she's doing much better, that's actually why I came
Jughead*looks at her*
Nurse: they want to start physical therapy with her
Jughead: really? Last night she couldn't even stand
Nurse: it's gonna be a lot of work
Jughead: what about her memory? Is she getting better?
Nurse: well whenever she's with you, she seems to have unusually high brain function, has she told you about anything? Memories?
Jughead: no, but she never wants me to leave
Nurse*smiles* if someone cared about me like you do about her, I wouldn't want you to leave
Jughead: thanks
Nurse*wakes Betty up* hey sweetie
Betty: hi
Nurse: I'm just checking up on you, after all you are my favorite patient. Don't tell the others *smiles*
*nurse leaves*

Jughead: Betty can I ask you a question?
Betty*nods*
Jughead: have you had any memories?
Betty: what's a mem-or-ies?
Jughead: a memory is like remembering something that happened, good or bad
Betty: umm maybe
Jughead: why didn't you tell me?
Betty: cause I didn't know too
Jughead: so what did you remember?
Betty: I remember Cheryl and Toni, we were at this place talking and then we had to go to something called class. Oh and one about you
Jughead: me?
Betty: yeah I was in someplace, called the blue and gold. I locked the door and said I couldn't trust you
Jughead*grimaces*
Betty: can I trust you?
Jughead: yes Betty you can, I promise. We just had a fight that time, that's all
Betty: okay

Betty: Hey Jug
Jughead: I need to talk to you about that kiss
Betty*stays quiet*
Jughead: I love you betty, I never ever stopped. I've watched you create a amazing life and I thought maybe you were better off but I'm wrong. I know so, we are soulmates and I found my way back to you. Just like I promised *comes over and kisses her head* so there's my confession. It's up to you now, but I never for one moment didn't want you *walk away*
