Chapter 40

 <unedited>

  "Ready?" I ask them as they all crowd around me.

  "Ready," Betty says. I shove the flash drive into the laptop and press play. We watch closely and see a serpent yelling at a tied up Jason Blossom.

"Oh, my God," V says, as Clifford Blossom walks in. He walks up to him and pulls something out of Jason's pocket. Jason struggles and Clifford points the gun at Jason's skull.

 "No," I whisper as he pulls the trigger on the gun. Killing his own son. We all gasp and I felt tears stream down my face.

"Oh my God," Veronica says sobbing. I turn to Jug and bury my face in his lap and sob. How could he do it? How could he kill Jason like that?

"Betty Betty, who are you calling?" Jug asks.

"You have to get out of that house. Listen to me," Betty says on the phone. I sob as Jug rubs my back. 

 "How?" I ask sitting up, "How? Why?"

"Shhh," Jug says pulling me towards him. I

"I called Cheryl," Betty says, "I told her to leave that house."

"Good," Archie says. I move up by Jughead. 

"You okay?" He asks.

"No," I say, "we are kids. Stuff like this isn't supposed to happen. Or I shouldn't have to see it more than once."

"Babe," Jug says. He pulls me towards him and wipes the tears from my cheeks.

"I'm giving this to my mom," Betty says pulling the flash drive from the computer, "She can give it to Sheriff Keller."

"I need air," I say getting up.

"I'm coming with you," Jug says.

"Okay," I say. He grabs my hand and we walk out of the garage. I slump down and pull my knees to my chest. Jughead joins me. I lean over placing my head on his shoulder. "FP didn't do it," I say to him, "at least that came out of this."

 "And we have proof of his innocence," He says.

"This nightmare can be over," I say to him.

By the end of that night, we would learn everything. FP confessed because Clifford Blossom threated Jug's life. Clifford Blossom had a secret drug business. And would hang himself out shame and guilt. For you know getting caught for shooting his son in the face.

*******

 I grip Jug's hand as he yells at Sheriff Keller. FP didn't kill Jason Blossom, and he only confessed because Jughead's life was at stake."He's gonna be charged with tampering with evidence, obstruction of justice, mishandling a body, perjury, and that's just off the top of my head," Keller screams back, "He's not getting out anytime soon." The scream off continues. 

  "He was protecting me!" Jug yells.

"I can't do this right now," Keller, "take him home Y/n."

"Come on Juggie," I say grabbing his arm.

"No!" He says pulling away from me, "he doesn't deserve this!"

"Juggie, you know Keller can't do anything about it," I tell him. He sighs and takes my hand.

"Fine let's go," He says. I lead him to my truck climbing into the driver's side.

"Jug I agree with you," I tell him, "I just know screaming the Sheriff can't change anything."

"I know," He says as I start the car. We drive down to Archie's house. 

"I am exhausted," I say to him as I climb out.
