Chapter 22
After running out of gym class, Betty ran onto the football field and sat on the bleachers, she put her head in her hands and cried. After a few minutes, she heard footsteps and then familiar laughs. She lifted her head up and saw fangs and Sweetpea. "Betty!" They said, looking confused as they spotted her. "What are you guys doing here?" She asked as they made their way up to her. "We skipped class" fangs shrugged. "More importantly what are you doing here?" Sweetpea asked. "And why are you crying?" He added, both of them looking worried. "Cheryl blossom" Betty whispered and they both nodded, understanding. Sweetpea sat next to her and fangs in front of her. "Want to talk about it?" Fangs asked. Before Betty could speak Toni and jughead ran onto the football field. "BETTS!" Jug yelled, running up the bleachers, Toni following, and wrapping her up in his arms. "I was so worried, Toni text me while in class telling me what happened and then we couldn't find you!" He rambled. "I'm fine" she said. "Betty we found you here crying.. that's not fine" fangs said. "Why are you here anyway?" Toni asked the boys. "We skipped class" Sweetpea said. "Baby, What Cheryl Said..." jughead said. "It's not true" he said. Betty didn't say anything, just stared at her hands. Jughead knew he needed to reassure her. He lifted her chin up so she was looking at him. "You're beautiful Betty cooper. You're amazing. Don't listen to anyone else" he said firmly. "It's true Betty, you're stunning" Toni smiled. "Thank you" Betty said, leaning her head on jugheads shoulder. "Since we're all here anyway, shall we ditch?" Sweetpea asked. "We can go to mine" Betty spoke up. "Grab some pops and watch movies?" She suggested. "Yes!" Fangs And Sweetpea agreed. "I'm down" Toni said. "Me too" jughead said, lacing his fingers with Betty's.
They had all just gone to pops to grab some takeout, and were walking back to Betty's. Sweetpea, fangs and Sweetpea were walking ahead and jughead took the opportunity to talk to betty. "Baby, are you okay?" He asked and she shrugged. "I'm used to it" she said and heard him sigh. "I hate that" he said. "I honestly thought people would stop messing with you" he said. "It's a lot better than it used to be" Betty told him. "I... I love you so much betts, it hurts me to see you go through this all the time" he said, his arm going around her waist and pulling her closer to him. "I love you too" she said softly. "Guys hurry up!" They heard fangs call from in front of them. When they got to Betty's, they all sat on the couch, pulling out their food and putting on a movie. "I love your house" Toni said, falling back further into the couch. "Thank you" Betty giggled. "Okay so what movie shall we watch?" Jughead asked. "Horror!" Sweetpea voted. "Babe? Do you want to watch a horror movie?" Jughead asked Betty. "Yeah I don't mind" Betty Said. They started the movie and Betty cuddled closer into jugheads side, her head on his chest. He gently stroked her hair and a few minutes later, she fell asleep...
