Dream

JPOV

Summary – All his life, Jughead had nothing but nightmares. Now, he has dreams, thanks to a certain blonde.

"Juggie!" Betty squealed, running around her yard in a skimpy bikini. I smirk and turn the garden hose back towards her. She screeches as the cold water hits her bare skin and I can't help but let out a small laugh. She glares and pouts at me, then a michiveous look crosses her angelic face. Before I know what she's up to, she charges at me. Her arms lock around my waist as she throws all of her weight into me, knocking me off my feet and the hose out of my hands. She pins my arms above my head and leans into grinning. I let her hold me down and feel a smile tug at my lips.

"That. Was. Cold." She enunciates each word, glaring playfully down at me.

"I can warm you up," I tell her, trying to keep my face straight. She smiles a beaming smile and begins to lean down to kiss me. And that's when I wake up. I groan, rolling over in bed to check the alarm clock on Archie's nightstand. 2:15 AM. Great. I glance towards the window and spot light coming from the house next door. I climb slowly to my feet and peer out between the curtains. Betty is awake at her desk, looking lost in thought. My heart tightens in my chest and I throw on a shirt and my beanie. I creep down the stairs and out the front door, hurrying to the spot below my Juliet's window. I pick up a few pieces of gravel and pray my aim is good enough. Ping. Ping. The small stones connect with the glass and I see movement from within. The window opens and Betty pokes her blonde head out, smiling slightly when she sees me.

"Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair!" I stage whisper, sarcastically. She giggles a little.

"You scared me, Juggie!" she exclaims, quietly. My heart flip-flops at the nickname.

"Mind if I come up for a bit?" I ask her, hope filling me. She just smiles widely and nods, wiggling a finger in invitation. I grab the ladder I have stowed nearby for such events and scurry up and into the window.

"No ridiculously too long hair required," Betty jokes, wrapping her arms around my shoulders and giving me a soft peck on the lips. That wasn't enough for me and I pull her in by her slim waist and kiss her deeply.

"What was that for?" she wonders, laughing a little with a twinkle in her eye.

"For giving me dreams for once in my life," I answer honestly. She tilts her head in confusion. I smile wryly.

"All my life, the only dreams I've ever had have been nightmares but you, Betty Cooper, have turned them to actual dreams. Beautiful ones at that," I explain, cupping her soft cheeks in my rough hands. She beams up at me.

"You are my dream, Jughead," she whispers, pulling me to her bed. We lay next to each other, whispering and giggling like children until she falls asleep in my arms. Her head rests on my shoulder, with my arms snuggly around her and I feel myself begin to doze off. Hopefully into another one of those beautiful dreams.

Reviews are nice :)
