Break Up

What would you say a break-up is, chances are you would say the separation of a couple, right? Well this wasn’t the case for me at all, our break-up was heart wrenching, our break-up was caused by my own negligence. I haven't talked to her in months, then one day she walked into my trailer then walked out of my life. It broke me, shattered who I was and who I was going to be, I no longer talked to Archie, why? Memories of a blonde, redhead, and a raven haired boy who were inseparable as kids, I didn’t talk to Veronica either, I couldn’t deal with her nagging as well as the memories that came with it. I sometimes wish I could go blind, everything I see reminds me of her, scratch that, everything I see, taste, touch, and feel reminds me of her. I remember once I would walk the halls of Riverdale high seemingly alone, but now I am completely. For weeks it was on and off crying and anger, but not at her, never at her. No matter what I do I can’t help but love her. I stopped writing, I stopped reading unless for school, I stopped the Blue and Gold, I stopped going to Pop’s as much as I did, I stopped eating as much as I did, I just stopped. I hated and loved seeing her around school and town, I loved it because I got to see her, I hated it because I was so broken and I still loved her.

Everything hurt until one day it turned back into the love I felt and the joy, and the excitement. I was sulking around my trailer, at this point it was daily, a normal day I guess. Then there was fantic knock on my door, I answered reluctantly afraid if it was Archie, checking in on me, or Veronica, coming to yell and rant at me again. I opened the door to be suddenly hugged, I looked down to see the normally nicely put ponytail all messy, her eyes were red and puffy, she wasn’t wearing her normal sweater but one of my sweat shirts instead, there wasn’t a pair of jeans on her legs but instead one of her workout tights, she looked like a beautiful mess. I hugged her back while she bursted out crying, I was so worried, what was happening and why, I soon cried with her, I missed her so much.

“Betts why are you crying?” I asked a few tears falling off of my face and onto her head.

“I just can’t do it anymore Juggie” she sobbed

“Do what Betts? Do what?”

“I can’t do it without you, I just can’t”

I nodded and brought her inside and laid her down on the couch. I tried to move away from her to get her a water but she wouldn’t let go, in that moment I had a newfound hope that she might want me back. I was still scared, what if this was just the closure that she needed in order to move on. I held her close just in case this all was just a sick and twisted dream.

“Betty are you okay?”

She nodded, she was still crying and it broke me further. I hated seeing her cry, no matter what caused it, well, unless they were happy tears.

“Please tell me whats wrong”

“Everything just went to hell after we broke up, a-a-and I couldn’t do it so I started th-the n-nail thing again-n” she cried even harder.

“What are you saying Betty?”

“I c-can’t do it without you! I j-just want to be us again Juggie, it's so so hard without you-u”

That's all it really took for me to kiss her, the sparks were there, like they always are. I vowed to myself since that day that I will never hurt or neglect her again, cause if I did we would both break.
