8 Months Later (yes there will be pt.3)
A V E R Y
Schools out and we graduated and bought a little apartment, my due date is soon. Me and jughead broke up when I was 4 months pregnant, not because one of us fucked up and especially not because we stopped loving each other but because we weren't IN love with each other anymore I still love him and much as he still loves me we just aren't in love anymore. We had a pretty healthy break up, he still comes a visit everyday he is still the one who buys me my pregnancy craving snacks. And he assured me all the time that I'm not doing this alone and he's there when I need him. He's like my best friend that knocked me up and got me pregnant, their are friends like that. He tells me about betty the ✨heather✨ of Riverdale high. He's head over heals for her and I'm living for it.
"So did you ask her to the dance!? Or not!?" I asked him as he was rubbing my swollen pregnant feet and fed him some ice cream, "well no.." he said as I threw my head back "UGHh!! You are in love with her! So ask her out already!!!!!" I said sitting up as he laughed, "do it" I said, "but-" "no but's just do it!!" I said taking a bite out of my ice cream, "I'm not asking her because I want to take baby mama to her last school dance before baby pops out" he said as I laughed "oh juggie I wouldn't be able to go anyway.." I said

"Why not?!" I whined putting my hand on the bed sheet next to her and felt the bed soak up "because my water just broke.." she said and began to let out hisses of pain. As I began to laugh making her look at me "don't laugh!! Im in pain!!" She said throwing a pillow at me as I laughed "I'm sorry it's just so perfect timing!" I said and walked over to grab the baby bag and her bag and my bag, "how far are your contractions from one another?" I asked grabbing my keys "Uh.. 6 minutes- OW!" She screams "okay okay I'm gonna go out these in the car, I'll help you change out of your pants and I'll be back okay" I said Beginning to panic because now I just realized how real this is gonna be, I'm gonna be a dad! I ran out to the car and threw the stuff in and then ran back to the house and helped Change Avery into some new clothes I just threw on a comfy dress on her and carried her out.
As soon as we arrived we were out in a room and a few doctors came in and began hooking her up to some IVs. They came back and left constantly to see if she's dilated. I felt useless, I called her parents and my parents already and they are on their way. "Hey breath" I said as squeezes her eyes shut and took in a few deep breaths. "Okay we are gonna do another ultrasound to check up on baby" the doctor said and put some cold gel on her belly, "okay let see, okay I see head.. two arms..two legs..and I-" the doctor stop making me panic "what!? What is it!?" I asked worried the doctor turned to the side to the intern and whispered, the interns face dropped and he looked dead he then nod his head and ran out making me even more worried "WHAT IS IT!?" I asked my heart racing, "sir can I talk to you out side please" the doctor said as I looked down at Avery in tears as she was also worried, I kneeled down besides her and kissed her head "everything is gonna be okay, okay? You are gonna be okay" I whispered to her our forehead against each other's, she nod her head while sobbing. I walked out with the doctor.
"Avery is not being dilated at all there isn't any progress down their, she also has an internal bleeding in her stomach which is building up and the cord is around the babies neck which is suffocating the baby so we have to do an emergency c section.." the doctor said as looked away and looked back at her with tears "what if we don't do it?" I asked her she gave me a look. As I bit down on my bottom lip knowing what the look meant.."and if we do?" I asked her "50/50" she said as I turned to the wall and laid my hands flat on the wall and looked down at my feet and sobbed. "I know it's hard-" "-do it, do the c-suction" I said as she nodded her head. I wiped away my tears so that I don't panic Avery.
We walked back in, I kneed besides her and held her hand and the more I looked at her the more I couldn't hold back the tears. "Okay mama we have to do a c-suction..okay?" The doctor said as Avery groaned in pain "I don't care what you have to do just make it stop!" She sobbed in pain. I went up and stroked her hair, and cried, "w-what?" Avery asked "nothing.. you got this mama.. I love you okay" I said as she nod her head.
The scrub her in. I wasn't aloud to go in. It scares me.. that after this their is a chance only one of them will come back to me and if I'm lucky.. both of them comes back to me..

They put Avery under so that she was unconscious and wouldn't feel any pain.
"10 in blade" the doctor said began to cut.
Jughead walked back and forth in the waiting room. He wasn't religious but he prayed god he prayed. He was in tears Fp tried everything to calm him down but he wouldn't. Averys parents sat and tried to stay positive but jughead couldn't he knew the risk and he wouldn't be able to stay positive he's scared for dear life afraid to lose the both of them.
"Okay..oh here's baby..it's a beautiful girl!" the doctor said and handed the baby over to the PEDS doctor as they tried to make the baby cry. "Hurry up over there I need to here baby cry" the doctor said calmly as he began to close her up for their, the Peds tried and tried to make the baby cry, one of the doctor picked up the baby and hit the baby's back as she let out a shrieking cry, making all the doctors in that O.R and the gallery cheer. "Okay 10 blade" the doctor said and cut averys stomach again but from a different area to take care of the internal bleeding.
Jughead was finally sitting down, his head is in his hands as he continued to pray and sob as Fp tried his best to comfort jughead.
"DAMNIT!" The doctor shout walking out of the o.r and into the scrubbing room and threw his cap on to the floor and looked at the O.R.
The nurses turned off the monitor as the flat line stops "time of death 3:37 am" the other doctor said. That death made everyone silent. A teen mom who was told to have a healthy pregnancy until due date.. she didn't even get to see or hold her baby or to tell the man she loves or the man that loves her that she loves him.

"Jughead.." the doctor said as my head shot up. I ran over to he doctor with hope in my eyes, "you've got a health baby girl" he said as i let out a breath of relief "Avery.. what about Avery?" I asked as he looked at me "..no..I'm sorry.." he said as my heart shattered, my legs felt like jello, I feel week on my knees as averys mom began to sob loudly as well as her dad. My dad ran over to me and held me as I sob, I never sobbed so hard in my whole life until this moment..the moment I found out that my best friend, baby mama and first love.. wasn't coming home..ever again.
After awhile I got back on my feet, "can I..can I see my daughter.." I asked him as he nod his head and brought me to the room that the 3 of us were in last night but then only 2 came back. "Here she is" he said and handed me her, I sat down on the chair and held her tight. She had her nose.. I could see Avery in her.. "do you have a name?" The doctor asked as I looked up at him in tears " Ali Julie Jones... Avery loved that name.." I said and looked back at my beautiful baby girl.

We were able to go home. I unlocked the door to our apartment we bought a few weeks after we graduated. I walked in with the cart set and saw the furnitures were left the same, the dishes are in the sink everything that she had touched was left the same like nothing had happened..like she was still here. But everything changed.. she wasn't here anymore. I took Ali out of her cartset and held her in my embrace as she squirmed around a little before falling back asleep. I walked over to her room that Averys mom had decorated and had forbidden us to open until she was born, me and Avery were supposed to open this door together.. we were supposed to be surprised by the nursery together she was supposed to run around the nursery and scream in excitement freaking out over the little socks and hats. I turned on the lights and looked around.. "welcome home Ali Julie Jones" I said and walked in and walked around the room "your mommy would've loved this" I said and sat down on the chair held her close and looked back down at her.
