The Serpent Princess

Forgiving Jughead and Betty

So it was talent show night and Jess is enjoying the show with Veronica, Marie, Cheryl Toni and Michelle. Archie sat behind Jess and next to Fred. Then Jughead was next to perform and Jess sees how lost he is without her. The song starts as the slideshow began.

"How do I breathe?
How do I breathe?
It feels so different being here
I was so used to being next to you
Life for me is not the same
There's no one to talk to
Don't know why I let it go too far
Starting over is so hard
Seems like everywhere I try to go
I keep thinking of you
I just had a wake up call
Wishing that I never let you fall
Baby, you were not the blame at all
When I'm the one that pushed you away
Baby, if you knew I care
You wouldn't have never went nowhere (nowhere)
Girl, I should've been right there
How do I breathe?
Without you here by my side
How will I see?
When your love brought me to the light
Where do I go?
When your heart's where I lay my head
When you're not with me
How do I breathe?
How do I breathe?
Girl, I'm losing my mind
Yes, I've made a mistake
I thought that you would be mine
Guess the joke was on me
I miss you so bad, I can't sleep
I wish I knew where you could be
Another dude is replacing me
God, this can't be happening
I just had a wake up call
Wishing that I never let you fall
Baby, you were not the blame at all
When I'm the one that pushed you away
Baby, if you knew I care
You wouldn't have never went nowhere (nowhere)
Girl, I should've been right there
And now I wonder
How do I breathe?
Without you here by my side
How will I see?
When your love brought me to the light
Where do I go?
When your heart's where I lay my head
When you're not with me (I say)
How do I breathe?
How do I breathe?

As he get to the bridge, Jug went on his knees pleading holding her hands.

"I should've brought my love home, girl
And baby, I ain't perfect, you know
The grind has got a tight hold
Girl, come back to me
'Cause girl, you made it hard to breathe
When you're not with me

Tell me, how do I breathe?
Without you here by my side
How will I see?
When your love brought me to the light
Where do I go?
When your heart's where I lay my head
When you're not with me
How do I breathe?
How do I breathe? (How do I breathe?)
Without you here by my side
How will I see? (How will I see you?)
When your love brought me to the light
Where do I go? (Where do I go?)
When your heart's where I lay my head
When you're not with me (you're not with me)
How do I breathe? (How do I breathe?)
How do I breathe? (yeah)"

He cried.

"I'm sorry for everything and yes I along with Marie broke the law about betraying a Serpent. I love you and miss you so damn much. Please come back, I truly realized how good you were to me when you left. I promise I will not hurt you again along with Archie and your dad I know they were truly pissed. My dad was so angry worst than your dad and Archie and he loved you so much. We all miss you and they all the Serpents stood up for you."

Each and every one of The Serpents stood up just to show how much she is missed. Joaquin said.

"Jess you're the heart and soul of the Serpents. You provide love and peace for us as a leader even though you are tough."

Jess was touched.

"I didn't think that I truly made my mark on you all."

Jughead said.

"Please come back to me?"

Jess leaned over and embraced him for a kiss.

"I forgive you. I did missed you so much, that the pain sting at times for a reminder that I needed a break from you. But if you do this again, you are going to face my Daddy, my brother, your dad, Veronica, Michelle, Toni and Cheryl. Be on their nice side please!"

Then Jughead given her jacket back as he put it on her.

"Good to be back in this jacket, you all have no idea how difficult it was to take it off and give it back to Jughead even though I was trying to prove a point to him and Marie."

The Serpents nodded.

Jess then said.

"I would love to thank Veronica, Michelle, Toni, Cheryl, Archie and Daddy for being at my side during that tough period definitely cleared my head and heart a bit."

Archie and Fred hugged her.

"We love you as we are always here for you."

Jughead was so very happy. Jessica then went up to Betty.

"Welcome to the Serpents!"

Betty was speechless at Jess being polite after everything she put her through. Jessica admits.

"It took me a long time to get to where I'm at now mentally even though I have an panic attack from time to time and I forgive you."

FP and Fred were so proud of Jess for taking the step even though it was tough because of how Betty was with Jess at first. Betty hugged her as she sobbed.

"I thought this would never happened."

Jess said.

"Like in Wicked and Michelle and I sang "Because I knew you, I have been changed for good."

Betty hugged her. Everything is good again.
