I'm Here ll
Betty had fallen unconscious "Her vitals are dropping!" Jughead heard someone shout. He didn't know who. All he knew was that his beautiful Betty was in danger.
"Sir!" He looked up, annoyance spreading across his face. "Sir, I'm sorry but you'll need to stay out here in the waiting room" it was a nurse. A nurse with auburn hair. "Ok" he said in a weak voice, and the nurse flashed him a sympathetic smile.
Jughead sat down in a tacky hospital chair. Unsure of what to do, he called Archie. When unlocking his phone he saw it was 2:45 am. He hoped Archie would pick up.
He picked up on the 5th ring. "Jug. What're you doing, it's 3 in the fucking morning" Archie was clearly annoyed. And Jug couldn't hold back tears as he said "Archie. Betty had a seizure. I didn't know what to do so I called emergency services. We're in the ER right now. And I thought you would want to know" Jug was in full sobs now.
"Ok, o..ok I'll be there" Archie's voice was laced with concern. Jughead hung up the phone and cried. Sadness. Guilt. Those were his only emotions.
It was less than 20 minutes after the phone call when Archie busted through the hospital doors. His heart sank when he spotted the beanie-wearing teen.
Archie sat next to Jug. "I'm so sorry Jug. But you did the right thing, by calling EMS. She's in good hands now"
They had been waiting there for 4 hours. Veronica had shown up, so had Kevin. Jughead had walked up to the front desk about a million times trying to get information on Betty's condition. He decided to ask again. And this time the front staff didn't just wave him off.
"Hi. Do you know anything about Elizabeth Cooper's condition?" Jughead had a pleading look in his eyes. The hospital staff responded with a simple "Yes" And Jughead had hope again.
