After jughead drops jellybean off he arrives to The high school. Jughead walks into the building. "Hey jug" Kimber says walking besides him "hey Kimber" jughead says "Kyle wants to have a 'meeting' at his house after school" Kimber says as jughead opens his locker "okay? Why didn't he ask me himself?" Jughead asked "he's getting ready for the 'meeting'" she says as jughead nods his head "Yea just let me let my dad he might have to take over mine and Ronnie's shift" jughead says "right..uh about Veronica...uh" "what? What's wrong?" Jughead interrupts worriedly "I went to wake her up to see the bed made and some of her stuff gone and a note on her bed, she had left early morning to visit her parents in New York, and also wrote me to tell you that she had already told your dad" Kimber says as jughead let's out a scoff while smiling to act like he was hurt, "she didn't tell me" he says "well if you makes you better she didn't tell me either" Kimber says "yea..but she told my dad and my dad didn't even tell me..so..she's just gone..w-will..is she coming back?" Jughead asked "it didn't say" Kimber says as jughead let's out a sigh, "okay..well..then..tell her to pick up my calls so I can hear her voice at least" jughead says closing his locker "I'll see you and Kyle tonight" jughead says and walks to class.

Jughead walked into class stunned by what betty wore. Black laced corset top with a black leather jacket and black short skirt with fish nets. "Oh god.." jughead mumbles and sits next to betty. "Again?" He says "if I want him  to love me I have to" "no, no you don't, if he doesn't love you for who you are then screw him, and I know this isn't my place to say this but..you deserve better" jughead says as betty looks at him. It's funny...they had never talked before..and just a few days ago they started talking for the first time and he's already so protective of her. But what she didn't know as that he had always cared for her.

Jughead was in a bad mood for the rest of the day. He watched a girl get in the car with archie and began making out and it pissed him off. He he has someone perfect he has someone good who is caring loving and sweet and he's just going to through it all away. Jughead was pissed at Archie but he was also pissed that Veronica didn't tell him that she was leaving. They were getting close..she was letting him in and just like that's she walked away. Jughead hit his steering wheel and rest his head against it breathing in and out when he heard a knock at his window. "Betty?" "Jug..I-I was wondering if you can give me a ride home?" She asked "why can't archie?" He asked her even though he knew "h-he has practice.." she says as jughead unlocks the car door. "Sure" he says.

They parked in front of Betty's house. "Thank you" she says "your welcome" he says as she opens the door but jughead grabs her hand "Betty wait" he says as she turns around "Archie's cheating on you, he isn't at practice" jughead says as betty smiles "I know" she says as jughead shook his head "why are you still with him if you know?" Jughead asked "I can't lose him..I need him..and he loves me and treats me right" betty says as jughead shakes his head "love doesn't force a person to change themselves for the other, love is..love is me loving you just the way you are..love is seeing a person whole and not just body...betty..to him you are just an object..you are just his body to have a good fuck when he needs it...Betty Cooper you are more than your body and I know I'd not get to make this chose for you but don't stay with a man who only wants you for your body" jughead says as betty sits there and looks at her toes "you should get inside if you stay out here any longer you'll catch a cold" jughead says as betty looks back up at him "come in with me? My parents are home and I..don't like being home alone knowing Archie lives next door...please?" She asked as jughead looks at the time. He'll make it to kyles house. "Okay" he says.

Jughead sits down on Betty's bed and sees a note book "what's in here?" He asked "just some silly writings" she says from the bathroom Changing. "Can I read some?" Jughead asked "go ahead"she says as jughead opens it and flips to a random page.
"Checkouts" he mumbles to himself.
"Open the door there he stands
Behind the counter with great grace in his hands
He turns my way and we our eye lock
a spark of joy filled within me, his dark hair so perfect wavy, snuggled with in by grey crowned beanie
This can't be true he's can't be real this must just have been dream yet why hasn't my alarm ring?
Checkouts he says well I certainly was checking someone out"
He read and smiled knowing it was him she wrote about "which one did you read?" She asked walking out in sweats and a t-shirt. "Checkouts" he says as betty runs over and snaps it from him and closes it shut. "So who's his perfect man you seem to be more into than your boyfriend?" Jughead teases "someone you don't know" betty says as jughead laughs "I think I know a grey crowned beanie boy very well" jughead says and takes off his beanie as betty looks away and blushes "it's someone else with a grey crowned beanie" betty says as jughead gets up and walks over to her "I guess my grandma just made a grey crowned beanie for a boy I don't know of huh?" Jughead says as betty rolls her eyes and smiles.

Jughead watch her smile instantly fade away. He turns around and follow where her gaze was at. He sees the girl that got in the car with Archie moaning and riding him her Breast bouncing up and down with her movements. Jughead walks over and closes her window and pulls the shade. "He leaves his window specifically that window open on purpose to 'show me' what he can give me if I start to act better and dress better" betty says and looks at herself in the mirror and wipes away her tear. Jughead watches her as she runs her fingers down her body. "No matter what I wear how I act..he'll never give me it..and I don't know..what else I have to do for him not just for sex but for his love I want his love.." betty says and lifts her shirt exposing just her stomach, "maybe I'm not skinny enough?" She says as jughead let's out a sigh and walk up to her and sneaks his arm around her and pulls her shirt down and rest his arm on her shoulders and made he look at her self "don't see yourself as his expectation she yourself as you, I think YOU are beautiful every inch of you is beautiful" jughead says and steps back , "you are beautiful just the way you are" he says as she smiles.

Jughead arrives at Kyles house. "Look who decided to show up" Kyle says "sorry last minute plans" jughead says "nah your good dude" Kyle says as jughead plops down "so what's the big news?" Jughead asked "okay so you two know that hose we applied for the summer?" Kyle asked "Yea? What about it?" Kimber asked "well..the owner called me and said that he's moving and since we had the best offer for the house he's giving it to us" Kyle says "what shut up, we got the house?" Kimber says "yes baby we did" Kyle says and holds up the keys "Holly shit!" Jughead says jumping up "y'all we got a house at 17!" Jughead says and they all laughed and got up.

Betty laid in bed when she finally decided what she was gonna do. She picked up her phone.

"What is it you slut I-I'm oh..fuck yes.. ugh..I'm b-busy" Archie says groaning as betty shivers in disgust "I'm done with you treating me like an object. I'm breaking up with you, you crazy bitch" betty says confidently "please You won't last a week with out me" Archie says "please I can last the rest of my life without you. Don't bother coming over or sneaking into my room, I told my father about you and how you treated me, if try to come in my dad won't hesitate to shoot you and if you try to come through mine or any window in my house an alarm will ring and notify the cops and you'll be arrested. Have a good life also tell that sick bitch to stop being so desperate for a little baby carrot dick" betty says and hung up. Her eyes widen not believing what she just said. Betty isn't the kind to say any of that stuff but being with Jughead has taught her that..no matter what stick up for yourself and don't love someone who only loves you for your body. Like jughead said..I'm more than my body.
