Bughead: autograph

Chapter 121

"Pregnant?" Jughead asked, shock lacing his features. "Yeah" Betty said, quietly, still playing with her sleeves. Jughead was silent for a minute before he looked over his wife and saw the anxiety radiating off her, so he snapped out of his initial surprise. "Okay, okay..." he started. "Have you taken a test?" He asked. "No, i only thought about it when you were out and I've been freaking out ever since!" She ranted. "Okay, before I go and get a test, I need you to calm down okay?" He said, taking her hands in his and coaching her through some breathing techniques. "Take some deep breaths baby" he encouraged and after a few minutes, she was a lot calmer. "I'm scared, juggie" she admitted. "It will be okay" jug reassured her, pulling her in for a hug. "Whatever happens, it will all be okay" he said. "I love you" he added, pulling back to look at her. "I love you too" she said. "Okay, I'm going to go and get a test okay? You sit here and maybe try and get some rest" he told her. "I'll be back as soon as possible" he said, kissing her again before leaving the apartment, leaving Betty to her own thoughts...

Before Betty knew it, jughead was back. "I got a couple just in case" he told her, holding up a bag. "Okay" she nodded. Jughead could see how scared she was, so he crossed the room and took her in his arms. "I love you so much Betty, it will be okay, I promise" he said, holding her tight and he felt her tears on his shirt. After a few moments, Betty pulled back, and took a few deep breaths and pulled herself together. "Right" she sighed. "I'm ready" she said and jughead smiled at her. "That's my girl" he said, wiping her tears. Betty grabbed the bag but before she could head into the bathroom, she turned to jughead. "Can...can you come with me? I don't think I can do it on my own" she told him. "Of course baby" he smiled, taking her hand as they walked into the bathroom. "Is it going to be weird?" Betty asked, pulling her sweatpants off as she sat on the toilet. "What?" Jug asked, opening the test and handing it to her. "You watching me pee?" She asked, blushing. "Baby" jughead Laughed. "You're my wife, this isn't weird to me" he chuckled and Betty nodded. "Okay" she said. She took hold of the test and peed on it; when she was done, she placed the cap on it and put it on the side, before Cleaning herself up and sitting next to jughead on the tub. "Okay in three minutes we should know" Betty said, as jughead put his arms around her and kissed her head. They were both silent as they realised the situation they were in, in the next couple of minutes, their lives could change forever. More than three minutes later, jughead broke the silence. "It's time betts" he said and Betty nodded. They both stood up, and with shaky hands, reached out for the test. "Ready?" She asked and jughead nodded. "ready" he confirmed. Betty took a deep breath and flipped the test, reading the word:

Negative.
