Author's note: There's probably only going to be this last chapter to this story and then I'm done with it. This story was purely to fulfill my need for fluff. Thank you all for the kind words.
Jughead watched as Betty signed her way through the yoga class from his mat in the back of the room. She hadn't been lying when she said the class wasn't easy but for the most part, he had kept up with her stretches and yoga poses admirably well in his opinion. He smiled at her gently when she caught his eye, looking at him for a moment with a soft look in her eyes before flitting her eyes to the other students in the session, moving her fingers to sign out the words that asked if everyone was doing okay.
Jughead would give himself a small amount of praise for how quickly and easily he picked up American Sign Language but he knew that it was Betty – there was no other alternative for him knowing ASL. Not if he wanted her in his life and to be able to communicate 100% in a way she was comfortable with. Sometimes, they would talk freely with their voices and others, when it was late at night, they would sign until their fingers hurt and their eyes couldn't stay open anymore. Then, Jughead would pull Betty against his chest, drop a kiss to her hairline and keep his arms wrapped firmly around her in a way that made her feel safe, secure, and loved. She had once told him her favorite place had always been in his arms – even when they were broken up – and she was home once more. When she signed the word home, a tender expression in his girlfriend's eyes, Jughead made sure to tell her how much he loved her and how he was home once more now that they were back together, too.
It was safe to say that the two of them would do anything for one another at this point – and he had no qualms about that. Just as he was sure Betty had no qualms about it either. They had ended up moving in together, something that made Sweet Pea both simultaneously happy and sad over. The guy had separation anxiety when it came to Jughead's girlfriend so they had to agree that him and Claire could visit them in their apartment three times a week. Minimum. Jughead didn't mind it though. He knew that Sweet Pea would do just about anything for Betty. And his girlfriend would do just about anything for Sweet Pea as well.
When the class was over, Jughead stood up and waited in the back for all the other students to file out. He watched on in happiness as a lot of them signed to Betty that she was the best yoga instructor they had ever had and they couldn't wait for the class again next week. When the last student filed out, Jughead went up to Betty and started signing.
"I'm thinking Chinese for dinner, baby?" His fingers wove themselves around the words in much the same intricate way that Betty's did and he was happy to know that he took the language as seriously as she did. Betty's face lit up with a smile and she signed back that that sounded perfect. Then they walked onward, hand-in-hand, towards their dinner and future lives together.
Author's note: Shortest chapter I've ever done but this was just how I wanted to end the story. Thank you for reading this pure ball of fluff! Xx
