Jughead was about to step out of his shorts to get in the shower when he heard his wife screaming for him in their kitchen. His blood ran cold and panic lumped in his chest as he tried not to think of worse case scenarios. He started sprinting after grabbing his robe.
Did someone break in and was holding her hostage?
Was she having a panic attack?!
He shook his head, tripping on his feet at how fast he ran when he reached the kitchen entrance.
“What,” Jughead asked frantically, fists at the ready and eyes going all over the room to look for the problem. “What?!”
There was nothing. Everything was in its place. There was food at the table and Betty was standing beside it with a hand on her. . .round belly?
“Look!” she exclaimed, head tilting to her apron covered stomach as Toffee’s head popped out. “‘M pregnant,” she giggled and grinned.
Jughead put a hand on his chest and sighed in relief. She was safe. He smiled as he neared her.
“God, Betts, I thought something happened,” he said. “And that’s cute, but please don’t scare me like that again.”
“Okay,” Betty nodded, her face going stoic as she stared at him with her big, doe eyes. “But seriously though, I’m pregnant.”
She let Toffee drop carefully on the floor on her feet and stood sideways in front of him, holding her stomach once more. “Look.”
Jughead’s breath hitched and his eyes glossed at the sight of a defined, tiny baby bump under the pink apron. It was so tiny but right there. How that fuck did he not see that before?
