It was the night of Homecoming, Jughead Jones had found out his father was arrested for the murder of Jason Blossom. He had decided that night that he was done with Riverdale and everything and everyone in it. So, he called his mom to tell her that he was going to live with her, but his mom did not welcome him back. That made him, move to a small town in Westchester,New York. He had changed his name back to Forsythe, and cut off all ties even, Betty. That was also the night Betty had made a discovery, she was pregnant with Jughead Jones baby. She hadn't had her period in 5 days. So, after the dance she went to straight to a local pharmacy, grabbed a pregnancy test, then she took it. Then she saw it, it was positive,then she also heard that Jughead's father was being arrested, and immediately went to the trailer. There was broken frames, and stuff was thrown everywhere, obviously the work of Sheriff Keller, but where was Jug. She looked everywhere searching for a sign of him, but she found that all of his drawers were empty. Tears started to well up in her eyes at the thought, that Jughead had left Riverdale. But, she still searched, she looked at the torn down drive-in, Archie's house, and any other place where he could be. She gave up, and sat down on the curb, and cried, she lost track of time until someone said her name.
"Betty?"
She turned.
"Hi, Archie"
"Hey, Betty what's wrong, where's Jughead?"
"Jughead left Riverdale"
"Oh my god, Betty are you okay?"
"No, I'm not okay"
Then she got up and walked to her house. She was alone because her parents were visiting Polly and the twins. So, she sat on her bed, hoping that she would see the familiar beanie, and the familiar tap on the window, but it never came. The next morning she experienced some horrible morning sickness, then she cried herself to sleep. Remembering the feeling of knowing Jughead had abandoned her, had abandoned both of them.
11 years later...
Betty was grabbing her and her daughter some Pop's because it was a tradition to have burger, fries, and a milkshake from Pop's every Friday. But, it was that day, also when Jughead Jones had arrived in Riverdale and was craving Pop's.
"Say hi to Emily for me, and wish her a early birthday for me"
"Of course, Pop's"
She grabbed her to-go order and turned around and heard the bell ring, she looked up. Jughead had walked into Pop's and heard him talking to a blonde girl. It was that moment when blue met green and worlds collided. She saw him, it was him. Tears started to well up into her eyes.
"Betts..."
His arm reached out to her, but she backed away.
"You don't get to call me that"
Then she ran to her car, Jughead followed, but she was already out of the parking lot.
