A/N: Short chapter this time because I just uploaded the other day. This chapter is literally shit. For real. Lol I have no inspiration. I have an announcement to make regarding the future of this story but I'm going to put it at the bottom so you all have to read the chapter before knowing. SUSPENSE! (P.s. Don't cheat and skip down there now without reading the chapter because then I'll be ... like mad.)


The next morning, I woke up to the noise of rummaging in one of the other rooms. My heart skips a beat and I begin to panic but only for a short moment because then I look over my shoulder to see that Jughead was no longer in bed. So most likely it was him creating the noise. I get up just to make sure.

When I turn the corner I see Jughead putting some groceries away in the kitchen. He looks up when he hears my footsteps.

"Good morning. Did you sleep okay?" He asks with a wide grin on his face.

"Of course." I smile back, lovingly.

"So," I say as I pull out a chair from the kitchen table and turn it so I can face towards Jughead, "Remember how Veronica called last night?"

"Yes." He finishes putting away the last grocery and leans against the kitchen counter to face me.

"Well apparently, the school made an announcement that we were missing and if anyone knew about us then they should go to Sheriff Keller." I explain. Jughead scoughs.

"And I told Veronica and Archie about everything and they understand so that's 2 more people we can count on." I say. Jughead nods his head.

"We do have to start thinking long term though. What are we going to do once the baby gets here? We can't exactly raise it in a motel. And we need to think about getting jobs if we're going to have any money to survive." Jughead worries.

"Okay, okay well we definitely need money if we're ever going to get out of this dump so we should discuss that first." I say.

"Yeah I can start looking for something small just to get us by for now and we can start saving up. Eventually we will make enough to get out of here," He says, " And maybe while I'm doing that you can finish school online or something."

"Yeah that sounds good" I smile.

When Jughead and I are sitting on the couch searching for jobs, a question pops into my head that I can't help but smile at.

"Hey Jug, what're we going to name the baby?" I ask lovingly. Jughead puts his laptop down on the table and snuggles up close to me.

"Well, I don't know what did you have in mind?" He whispers in my ear.

"We could always keep the Jones tradition. Forsythe or Forsythia." I suggest.

"Oh god please no." He states firmly.

"Why not!" I ask.

" Betty I hate that name. I hate my parents for naming me that too. And I would kinda like our child to not hate us." He jokes. I laugh slightly.

"Alright so Forsythe is out of the picture…" I try to think of other names.

Jughead and I sit for hours debating on what our child's name should be. I always thought Jughead was very decisive but after tonight I realized that my boyfriend was secretly a whiny child when it came to this subject. I loved that he cared so much but it was making things way more complicated than they needed to be. But finally Jughead came up with the perfect names. We agreed not to tell until after the baby was born.


After a very short time of searching Jughead found a job writing for a local newspaper. We both agreed that I shouldn't work because of any toll it could take on the baby. Also people could recognize me from when I went missing. In the meantime I finished school online. My mother reached out to me several times. I didn't ever answer her calls at first but after a while I gave in. I never told her where I was and she never asked. Our relationship wasn't perfect but it was better than it used to be. Maybe one day she could visit. We told Fp after he started having questions. He visits us on the occasion too. Veronica and Archie visit us too on the weekends. As the months went by Jughead and I saved up enough for a small apartment. It was no Pembrooke but it was enough for the 2, soon to be 3, of us.


A/N: HAHA Y'all don't get to know the baby name just yet! Thought I would say it? WRONG HAHA. There was something I was going to say but I forgot. Shit what was it. Oh yeah, So I know the last little paragraph seemed like the end BUT IT IS NOT! I REPEAT THIS IS NOT THE END! I will be doing a time jump though. I am going to try to make Veronica, Archie, Alice, and Fp more involved in the story but remember this is a bughead story so it will not be all about them. I not sure if I am going to put Gladys, Jellybean, and Polly in the story yet because I'm an indecisive little bitch. And also I'm not sure if Polly deserves to be in the story since she's being a meanie. Let me know what you want to see in the time jump! And tell me who you want to be more involved in the story, it doesn't have to be any of the people I listed too it could be like Cheryl or Toni or Dilton etc...
