No Strings Attached

Part 25

Jughead's POV:
Wow Betty was forced to be perfect just whoa. Veronica had tears going down her face from the anger. "What do you mean forced to be perfect?" Veronica took a deep breath. "I mean she would be taken from her sister, her cousins, her friends. She was told if she wasn't perfect she couldn't be in her family and they would send her to a luny bin. I would have gone crazy if that was my family, but Betty is stronger than any other person I've met. And if you can't see that it's your loss, BUT EVER speak bad about her or call her a prostitute again you will see a part of me I try not to be. OH AND HOW DO YOU NOT SEE THAT SHE AND YOUR SON ARE IN LOVE!" And then she was out the door. My mom trying to take it all in. "Is this true?" "Yes and it's what we tried to tell you but you chose Toni over me and Jellybean which proves that Toni is more your child than me and JB." She was shocked by my choice if words. "I'm so sorry. I practically raised Toni. I don't know why I trusted her over you, I think it's because you remind me of your father." I was shocked she brought him up. "Well you took me away from my father when I was 7 and I can't remember him but I do know one thing." "And what's that?" She asked sad/hatefully. "I love Betty Cooper." She took a deep breath. "Just hope her mother doesn't know your a Jones then." I thought "and why is that?" "Because her mom was my best friend, and when your father became a gang leader she didn't trust Betty around him. Before you say you don't remember her that's because you where 4. Alice loved the look on your two's face when you saw each other, but FP was well dangerous. She tried to reason with him, but he said Betty wasn't good enough to be your friend because you where quote 'the hire to the gang'. Alice hated seeing FP so she and I talked about it and decided it'd be best for her to keep Betty away. We trued to keep in touch, but we started to drift apart. That's when all hopes where lost. That is why Alice is hesitant about the Jones family. Tell her after she trust you, but also she has changed by the way you described her." I nodded. "I gotta go check on Betty bye mom." "Bye Jug and if you can please tell JB to come home." I nodded and left.

Betty's POV:
Jelly and I just sat there and talked about our past and watched a movie. When V got home you could tell she was mad. "Are you ok V?" She lightly giggled. "You git accused of fake sh*t and your asking if I'm ok? Betty you're truly the best friend." "How did it go?" She was giving us a summary of what she said then there was a knock we let Jug in, and then he told us what his mom told him. "Jelly mom wants you back home too." She thought about what would happen when se got home. "Is Betty welcome?" "I think she is we didn't go that specific I left before that came up." "I'll go but if she says a word bad about Betty I'm moving in with you till she gets in the right mind." We all laughed that night hoping tomorrow would be better than today. But we where wrong.
