<written in betty’s perspective><mature language><notes at the end> It didn’t start of with this feeling of hate, I know its a strong word but that’s how I feel towards you not because of anything you’ve done to me, because you’ve done nothing but be perfect but because, I can’t have you I threw away my chances by pushing you away, but this feeling of hate was because you were with veronica now and the hardest part about it was that she deserved you and I know I didn’t and for some reason this hate was towards you instead of her it didn’t make sense in my head but I guess in my heart it did. it was monday morning and I was just about to leave to school when I received a text from you out of all people *JUGHEAD* -hey betty, I know its been a while but can you meet me in the blue and gold. *BETTY* -yeh why, are you okay . I really didn’t want to have to see him but I just said I would now. *JUGHEAD* - I guess🤷🏻♂️, I need some help, its about me and veronica. *BETTY* - okay ill be there soon leaving my house now. *JUGHEAD* -thank you. *what did I just get myself into, I hate him why would I help him, I love to make awkward situations worse for myself don’t I.* I put my phone down and didn’t respond to his last text, I finished getting ready and made my way out the door and headed to school, I made my way straight to the blue and gold, as I walked up to the door I hoped that he wasn’t there but as I turned the corner to walk through the door he was stood there, I wanted to just turn and walk away but before I could he spotted me. “Betty.. hi you actually came” he called out just before I could walk away “yeh I said I would didn’t I” it came out more blunt then I expected “Yeah, yeah sorry” he replied. As I walked in the room I caught a better glimpse of his face his normally bright ocean like eyes were dull and dim but they still contrasted against the dark grey and purple bags that lurked under his eyes and complimented the bloodshot red color that had invaded his sclera from rubbing away the tears that he had shed before I had arrived. “Juggie… are you okay? what happened?” “cleary not betty!” his voice agitated at my question “Jeez okay im sorry” I reply back annoyed not only because of his tone but because I didn’t want to be here just to hear about his and Veronica’s relationship “No im sorry betty I didn’t mean for it to come out like that, it’s just me and veronica broke up this morning” I roll my eyes at what he says, and he catches me as I do it “Thanks for the sympathy Betty, you haven’t even heard the full story.” he scoffed “go on then tell me what’s so upsetting about breaking up with veronica” “well first me and veronica broke up which I can tell you care about, not, then we got into a massive argument about the break up, then for her to tell me she was cheating on me with Archie f*cking Andrews and that she also never wanted this relationship to happen and that she hates me but you know what was the worst part about it all, was when she said and im not the only one who hates you, me and that b*tch Betty Cooper actually have something in common” the color drains from my face at the last part of his rant, like I had just seen a ghost but it was worse it was the boy I love yet hated knew I hated him. “You know what Betty I don’t even care about veronica anymore or mine and hers now non-existent relationship but the fact that you hate me, what have I you! YOUR THE ONE WHO PUSHED ME AWAY! so tell me why” tears trying to escape his eyes as he said all this a single tear rolled out my eye and down my cheek. “ I HATE YOU BECAUSE I CAN’T HAVE YOU!” his face shocked at what I just said to him, I fall to the ground crying my eyes out. Through the tears I manage to get out some more words that I needed to say to him. “I pushed you away.. because I love you I always have, I always will… im sorry for doing that but I couldn’t see you with her everyday it killed me, knowing you where someone elses and knowing that I have and will never been good enough for you, I miss you everyday so I had to turn that love into hate to protect myself.” I didn’t want to bring myself to look up at him but once I did I noticed he wasn't stood in the same place as before yet he had dropped to the floor beside me, I turned to face him our eyes locking together the ocean blue of his eye had been restored and was full of light yet again, he stood up of the floor and as he did he reached his arms out to help me up. Once we stood up his hands where still holding mine as I let go they reached to my waist and pulled me into to him our bodies morphing into one he held his arms together behind my back so there was no space between us, my head rested upon his broad chest. “I am sorry juggie” he released his arms behind my back he left one hand place upon my hip and brought the other one round to my face, he used one finger to turn my face and lift up my chin, “im sorry to, for not realising it was you I want and need,no one else and for letting you have to hate me for your protection” His eyes glanced from my eyes to my lips and my eyes did the same to him. Our faces moved towards each other our lips attracted to one another, I placed a light kiss onto his lips and again from craving the taste of him, his hand moved from my face back to my other hip he pulled me in closer the kiss deepened as he did, I could stay like this forever. I wish I could stay like this forever. 💞Authors notes 💞 - if you want more bughead oneshots and stories check out my Wattpad RiverFic_trash - I’m terrible at writing romance so go easy on me for that 😂 - I hope you liked this 💞
