Jughead, Veronica, Archie, Cheryl, and Toni strolled back down the hallways, satisfied and victorious.

They arrived in front of Betty's hospital door, and knocked.

"Come in!" Betty shouted.

Jughead opened the door, and all of them walked in.

"Jughead, thank god you're okay," Betty said as she hugged and kissed him, "Oh my god, what happened to your face? You're bleeding and you have a black eye."

Betty put her hand on his cheek and rubbed her finger lightly over the blood on his face and Jughead answered, "Nick St. Claire punched me in the face, but we literally beat and broke him up and he's getting arrested as we speak."

Betty smiled and she asked, "Is everyone else okay?"

Everyone nodded and Betty told them, "I can't thank you guys enough. You guys are literally the best friends I could ever ask for."

"B, you didn't deserve to be taken advantage of by that jerk or to be kidnapped and be abused. You've been through so much and this is the least we could do," Veronica said.

"Nick deserves to rot in hell, Betty, so we were more than happy to take care of him," Cheryl said.

"And look what I got, Betts," Jughead said pulling out the two checks and handing them to Betty.

Betty read the amount of money written on both of the checks and said, "Wow, this is a lot of money."

"And it's ours for the keeping," Jughead said, smiling.

"At least we get to take advantage of his bank account," Betty said as everyone started laughing.

Everyone was then silent for a minute and then Toni said, "Well, we're gonna head out and leave you two lovebirds alone."

"Us too," Archie said.

"We'll be back tomorrow, B," Veronica said.

"Again, I can't thank you guys enough," Betty said.

"Anything for you, Betty," Archie said.

"Bye, cousin!" Cheryl said as they walked out of the room.

"Bye!" Betty said as the door closed behind them.

Jughead and Betty stared at each other and Betty asked, "Can you put these two back in the stroller and then come lay next to me?"

"Of course, my love," Jughead said, taking PenPen and Juliet out of Betty's arms, walking over to put them back in the stroller.

Jughead put them back in the stroller, and walked back over to the hospital bed, got up on the bed, and, as he laid next to Betty, put his arm around her.

Betty put her head on his shoulder, and they were silent, just enjoying each other's embrace.

"I wish I could've saved you sooner," Jughead said.

"You saved me, and that's all that matters to me, Jug," Betty said.

"When you weren't there, there were some times I felt so hopeless, especially when I couldn't get the twins to calm down," Jughead said, "I'm just glad you're here to help me."

"I'm happy that you stayed, cause most teens fathers bail on the whole thing," Betty said.

"And that's why I'm not like most teen fathers," Jughead said, "I get the experience to watch my kids grow up and raise them to be great people."

"Me too, and you're special, you know that, Juggie?" Betty said.

"Yes, I'm special because no one else has the best girlfriend in the world, you, Betty Cooper," Jughead said.
