I didn't know how I was going to explain this to Jughead and my father—wherever he is.I could just go to Betty and ask for makeup. But, she'd ask why and rat me out to Jughead.
Or I could just pretend I'm sick and stay in my room all day.
The bruise on my left eye throbbed in pain. Jughead was outside fixing his motorcycle and I asked him if I could walk around the trailer park. He said yes, because we kind of knew everyone who lived there, so I went walking. But, I ran into Avía and Tylenol. Avía was saying some trash about my brother so I punched her a couple of times. Then she punched me in the eye. No one was there to break up the fight so I got a black eye.
The front door burst open. "Explain everything." Jughead demanded, pointing to my eye. "How'd you find out?" I ask.
"Sweet Pea saw you. Now tell me everything and why you started it." He said.
I didn't like when Jughead was mad at me. So, I lied. "Avía started cursing at me and threatening me and then she hit me so I punched her and she punched me." I say quietly.
"That's not what Sweet Pea said." Jughead said. "Well, guess what. You don't have a right to send spies around to watch what I do!" I yell and run outside.
I kept running until my knees ached. Once I got to a jog, Jughead grabbed my shoulder and turned me around.
"JB, I don't want you to get hurt! Y-you're my only family that's not dead or in jail. So please be careful." Jughead pleaded. Tears were piling up in his eyes as he pulled me into a hug.
"Dad is in jail?" I ask. "Yes, he is. That's why my number one priority is to make sure you don't die or go to jail. I don't like having to follow you around. But I don't like how I don't know if you are safe or not." He admitted.
"Then why do you send me to school when I'm not in any of your classes?" I ask.
He ignored my question and grabbed my arm, leading me back to the trailer.
"Go get ready for Pop's." He said as we entered the trailer.
I fixed my hair and brushed my teeth. I can't believe how much Jughead cares for me. Most people would think he's some nerdy weirdo who keeps to himself but he's a loving, caring older brother to me. And I am a reckless, stupid, idiotic little sister he has to keep watch over and not have fun with friends.

Once we walked in Pop's, there was no sign of anyone. I saw Archie, Pop, and a couple of others on the floor. What was going on?
"No!" Jughead shouted. A bullet flew towards me and Jughead leaped in front.
