Betty (x Archie)

Hi, I'm back. Updates are still going to be slow but I will try to work through it. 

⚠️Beware of Suicide attempt, mentions of rape and abuse. ⚠️

Betty was always seen to be perfect. She had the perfect life, the perfect body, the perfect hair, the perfect record and the perfect boyfriend. Chuck Clayton, captain of the football team, was Betty coopers boyfriend and has been for 2 years. Everyone thinks that she got her life given to her on a silver platter, but in reality Betty hates her life.

Behind the closed doors, Betty's mum hits her and verbally abuses her. Chuck raped her and beats her. Her father is a drunk abusive man. Her sister is unsupportive. Betty's friends, Ginger and Valerie are both fake and only use her to be in the cheerleading team. Betty and Cheryl run the cheer team together. Cheryl will send subtle mean comments to Betty. Veronica is too busy on anything else. All Betty truly had was Archie, but even he recently had been distant. 

Betty was on her way to Chucks house per request. She had an idea of what was to come, but never did she imagine it would become so brutal. She never thought that all her scars would be revealed to the world in just one night. 

⚠️ Carefully, she knocked on the door. It swung open to reveal Chuck, her boyfriend. He hugged her and then put a blindfold over her eyes. Usually, if someones boyfriend would do this it would be cute, but betty thought the opposite. "Chuck," she rasped. "Shh, it's okay baby," He said as he closed the door and then grabbed her wrist forcefully. He dragged her down to what she assumed was the basement. Before she knew it, she was chained to the wall. Her arms handcuffed to two posts. He quickly stripped her of her clothes and did things she would never have imagined to cause so much pain. She felt like her insides were tearing apart. Every-time she cried out in pain, he would hit her with what seemed to be a whip. She could feel blood oozing down her body. 

She finally thought he was done. She finally thought the pain was over. Just as she was about to sigh in relief, she felt his foot collide with her abdomen, then her already sensitive spot. She screamed in pain. He continued to kick her. She finally passed out when she heard a crack. Her body cracking. ⚠️

A couple hours later she awoke to her cold bare body screaming in pain. She managed to wriggle the blindfold off her face. When she could see the glisten of the moon in the room, she figured there would be something she could use to get out of the handcuffs. She managed to moved around and pull a bobby-pin out of her hair. After minutes of fiddling, she managed to release the first hand and then the second hand. She took no time to stand up, but then fell back down feeling the rush in her head. 

The second time it was the adrenaline which had now kicked in. She ran over to her clothes and threw them on in a messy state. She slowly walked up the stairs, listening for any signal that Chuck was awake. She heard the snores of chuck coming from upstairs. She opened the basement door fully and then ran towards the front door. Once she was through the front door, she ran and didn't stop until she was at the bridge. 

She sat there and listened to the quiet rush of water, the whispers of the trees and her own racing heart. Now was the time. She would be free from everything. She pulled out her phone. Pulled up Archie's contact and waited. Suddenly a rush of wind gave her confidence to finish it. To say the final goodbye. She pressed dial. 

"Betty?" Archie's groggy voice said. "It's 2 am, what are you doing up at this time?" he asked with worry in his voice. 

"Sorry Arch, didn't mean to wake you. I have to go soon anyway. I just wanted to tell you that I love you and you are the only person that I truly feel real with. The only person that i could rely on. I love you. Goodbye." Betty replied in a soft tone. She didn't feel anything. She couldn't feel the guilt, she couldn't feel the pain, she couldn't feel the cold. All she could feel was freedom.
