Hey guys this is a few months later than the last chapter as I wanted it to be more interesting when Betty's parents find out :) Hope you enjoy!

Six months pregnant really wasn't a pleasure for Betty like all the books and magazines had told her it would be, her bump was there though not too huge. Baggy shirts or jumpers hid it fairly well. She tried to stay away from home as much as possible and hid all her baby stuff at F.P's caravan.
Betty sat on the couch at reading Bump and I a novel that made everything seem so flowery and wonderful for expecting mothers and yet she felt so heavy and tired more like a dying garden than a living.

"HA! The glow? What glow?!" She closed her book and heavily moved her feet off the clean coffee table, in all fairness when F.P said he would change he really did. His home was clean, his hygiene improved and his alcohol gone.
"I think you look as beautiful as ever my dear." Jughead kissed her warm hands and looked into her eyes. The pair spent so much time together now they loved it, being together in a town of misery was a wonderful story of their own. Veronica and Archie knew about the baby and promised to keep it quiet even though Veronica would bring baby gifts to the house all the time. Wipes, nappies, baby grows the lot. And Archie was helping Jughead out with work getting him a place on his dads site. It was all going too well really. School hadn't even found out yet despite the fact Betty was now wearing clothes she would never even look at.

"Thank you Juggy, but I guess i'm just stressed. The thought that no one knows yet and i'm only three months away from giving birth... I want them to know but how?" It had played on Betty's mind a lot recently especially the closer her due date came. Always putting it off was killing her inside but she knew they wouldn't understand. Her family... the small world that was Riverdale."
"Why don't we tell them today? You invited me over for dinner remember?" She smiled at Jughead, she did invite him over but the blow of them dating and becoming parents... jeeees her family might actually have a heart attack.
"And what would you say to them Jug?" She asked him sarcastically grinning expecting a stupid answer.

"Mrs Cooper i'm here to tell you that i'm in love with you're daughter. So much so that shes now knocked up!" He rubbed her belly laughing. It was a joke of course but he was too nervous at the fact they'd have to tell them in a serious way. His dad was so supportive and caring about it, but the Coopers? Their a kind of cruel.
"Look we have to tell them tonight this isn't fair on anyone any more. You, me, the baby. Once they know all you have to do is keep a bag close in case they run you out the house. Besides if you leave it any longer the belly will tell them anyway" He smiled at her and lifted up her shirt. She was in a old american band t shirt his dad let her borrow to try and cover her belly that was still growing. She sighed.

"I know, but firstly I am not exactly a whale yet. I feel it but i'm not that huge, and secondly I know but telling them is my worst fear. Their baby having a baby...it doesn't seem fair." She placed her hands over her belly, she had stretch marks along the sides that Jughead began to trace with his fingers across her gently.
"No one called you a whale, you my girl are a tiger. Stripes that animal is worthy of and a courage that no one can defeat. Lets do it tonight okay?" He rolled the shirt down as she nodded and so the countdown clock began. Hours felt like an eternity as Betty watched the world go by and the clock tick before it struck 6pm... its time.

"You ready then?" F.P helped her into the car which was proving a challenge now she was pregnant.
"Ready as i'll ever be" She had changed into a jumper off Veronica. They arrived to the door of the Coopers household and Jughead helped her out the car before taking a deep breathe at the front door of their house. F.P beeped his horn.
"Remember if their mad it shouldn't last, but if their happy embrace it. You know I will always be happy for you." He waved and drove away leaving the pair at the house nerves high and palms sweaty. They knocked the door and held hands hoping Mrs Cooper would notice the first news they had. It opened.

"Welcome both... " Alice Cooper stood there in her apron covered in flour from her baking, she stared at their hands intertwined together.
"Mom you remember Jughead yeah? Well we are dating so before you slam the door in our face and say it's wrong know that I will not stop loving him because of you." Betty was surprised at her sudden amount of courage she had to tell her mother that. Not exactly how she planned to say it but she got her point across. Jughead held her tighter waiting for the response. But to their surprise Alice smiled and welcomed them in together... that was the first hurdle jumped. Only thing left was hurdle two. Perhaps not to go so well was her daughter being pregnant.
"Of course I remember Jughead! He's a very handsome young man. Don't look so nervous, come through dinner is being plated as we speak. Take a seat... together." She smiled in a parental way of I trust you, i'm happy but you're still my child.. I will always protect you. If only she knew what was to come.

They began to eat their meals making eye contact together as the conversation turned to Jughead and his life. Though Alice knew most of it anyway through Betty. It was all very cheerful and pleasant which was going down well. But when it came to finishing their main meal Alice went to get the cake for pudding. Jughead looked at Betty who nodded. It was time to be honest and as Alice came back to the room Betty coughed and stood up.
"Mom I have to tell you something." she went to Jugheads side.
"Well Mrs Cooper... we both do." He held her hand.

Betty spoke clearly and loudly "Mom... I'm pregnant..."
