~Archie's POV~

Ouch. My head. I opened my eyes looking at the blood on the floor, realizing what happened.

"JUG?!" I yelled

I ran upstairs and ran into my room, noticing door was off, and the window was opened

I got in my truck as I searched around the neighborhood, knowing Jughead he is trying to hide from FP, and he wouldn't go somewhere  he normally goes.  The old drive in.

I pulled up in a spot at the drive in and yell

"Jug!?"  I hear running footstep to see Jughead running to the truck as I get out as he collapsed in my arms sobbing and shaking.

"I'm so sorry I didn't help you.,I was scared and he has been chasing me for ages and I haven't stopped running and I just-"

"Hush..is alright it's fine..I'm so sorry..I..couldn't keep him away..but we won't go back to my house, we'll get a room at the 5 Seasons hotel, and we'll make it out of this alive."

He nodded as he just sat there hugging my crying, I picked him up and put him in the car as I drove us to the hotel, and got us a room.

"I'll keep the doors locked, and got us some protection too."

"Arch..you bleeding on your face..let me help" Jug got some wet rags and cleaned up where he punched me

I started to softly cry, when I looked up at Jughead.

He smiled at me, which made me cry more.

"I didn't protect you like I p-promised..I'm..so horrible for having you count on me..I..I'm so useless.."

"No your not, Archie. He knocked you out, FOR protecting me. You could get up, and I'm still here. It's perfectly okay, my love." Jughead said as I layed my cheek in his hand

"We all make mistakes,  and mess up. But mistakes and messing up is normal and it's alright, do you believe me, my darling?" He said as he sat between my legs as we sat on the floor

I nodded, as Jughead kissed me, as I lifted him up and layed us on the bed, as I rest my head on his chest.

"I don't think I say it enough, but I love you, a lot..more then anyone else in the world." I said

"I love you more than everyone and everything, even burgers" Jughead said as we laughed

^1:35 am^

I moved my arm across the bed, as I realized Jughead wasn't in the bed, I sat up and saw him sitting in the chair.

"Juggy, what are you doing the bed is so empty without you." I said

"I..i had another nightmare."

"You didn't wake me up, love?" I said crouching next to him

"I didn't want to annoy you with some silly dream.."

"If it scared you, or made you sad. It's not silly. I want to be here and help you through these nightmares." I said resting my hand on Jug's thigh

"Okay..I'll come to you when it happens." He looked at me, as I kissed him softly.

He smiled as i pulled him onto the bed, chuckling as I layed down, with him beside me hugging me tightly , as I wrapped my arms around him.

^5:19 am^

I heard a big thump and open my eyes and look over the side of the bed.

"Did you literally just fall off the bed?" I asked

"Yeah.." He said as I cracked up laughing, as I helped him get back in the bed and layed him on top of me, as he wrapped his legs around my torso.

I ran my fingers through his hair, and rubbed his back as he fell asleep peacefully in my arms
