Betty POV
The last 2 years have been hard for me and Jughead. Well that's honestly an understatement. I wish that I could say that it wasn't true but that would be a lie. The truth is, we have been trying for a baby for the past 2 years and every time I'm sick or even one day late for my period, I take one of the dozens of pregnancy tests that are in our bathroom, but every time it's the same result, negative. It has definitely put a strain on Jug and I so I'm trying to keep it from him whenever I suspect something. About a year ago Jug and I decided that it was time to go and see a specialist, just to make sure that everything was okay. They told us that as far as they could see, everything was okay but that due to my irregular periods, it would be hard to find an ovulation date, so that we should just keep trying and hopefully at some point it would catch on. Recently, in the past few days we have been the most strained we have ever been, but I was hoping that now that one of the sticks finally came out positive everything will go back to the way it was.
I heard Jug home so I put the test in my back pocket quickly before he saw.
"Babe, you here?" He asked in a grumpy tone.
"I'm in the kitchen" I called with a smile on my face.
"What's got you so happy?" He asked with the smirk that I hadn't seen in such a long time. I realised that what they say is true, if the person you love is happy, so are you.
"I have some news," I revealed. He kissed my head for the first time in a while making me even happier, I hadn't even told him yet and it was already getting better.
"What is it?" He asked. I pulled the test out from my back pocket and looked into his eyes.
"I'm finally pregnant." I announced. I saw his face drop in shock.
"Seriously?" He asked. I was beginning to get a bad feeling about his reaction.
"Jug, what's going on? We've been trying for two years. I thought you would be excited about this?" I questioned, completely confused. He huffed out a sigh and backed away.
"Jug...?" Tears we're building up in my eyes.
"I just... I- I don't know how to say this," I just looked at him waiting to say something. "I don't really know if I want this anymore." I was speechless.
"Betty, think about it, I think our marriage has gone off the rails a bit and that we need to focus on that, okay? We can't do this right now. I don't want a baby anymore!" He raised his voice slightly. I didn't know how to react. So I just said the first thing that came to mind.
"You have to leave right now." I said through gritted teeth not even looking in his direction. I saw his face drop in realisation of what he had done. He started to shake his head. On my way to the living room I shouted,
"Take your shit and leave!"
"No, Betty please, let's talk this out"
"Seems to me like you've said everything you wanted to say already" I said coldly, ignoring him. I could tell that he just didn't want to cause anymore pain so he just grabbed his jacket and left me crying on the couch and cradling my stomach. About an hour passed so I dragged myself up to our bedroom and into one of Jug's shirts, cuddled up in bed and carried on crying whilst rubbing my slightly firmer stomach, thinking about how I needed to make sure that no matter what happens, they will feel loved.
At some point I must have fallen asleep, because I woke up to the feeling of the bed dipping behind me and an arm being draped around my waist and trailing circles on my stomach and being gently rolled over onto my back. I slowly began to wake up properly, whilst keeping my eyes closed, when I heard my husband's voice begin to speak to my stomach.
"Hey baby. It's your daddy..." I heard Jug whisper whilst my (well his) shirt got damp with tears.
"I'm so sorry for what I said bubba, I didn't mean it. I honestly don't know why I said it and I need to apologise to your momma too, well more than apologise to her. I promise you that you are going to be brought into the most loving family with the best momma in the world. I love you and your momma so much bubba and I promise that you two are the most important things in the world to me." He finished his beautiful speech with a kiss to my slowly growing bump.
"You're the most important thing in the world to me too, Jug" I spoke up. I saw Jug look up at me in surprise.
"Betty, I didn't know that you were awake. How much of that did you hear?"
"All of it." I admitted.
"I meant every word baby, I'm so sorry for how I reacted. I didn't mean anything, okay? I love you and I love our baby, and I am so excited that this is finally happening for us and that we are going to start our family together." He begged.
"I just don't get it Jug, we've been waiting for this for so long and then you reacted the way you did? Why?" Jug scrambled up the bed so that we both sat up against the headboard.
"I... I've just been waiting to react to this for so long and I imagined it being so perfect and all of this pressure to make it so amazing for you and for us and I think that all of this pent up emotion of waiting for this to happen and it just stressed me out and I'm sorry." He rambled.
"Hey, hey stop rambling," I told him laughing. "I forgive you."
"Are you serious? Really?"
"Of course. I love you. Our love and our baby are all that matters right now."
"I agree, now let's get some sleep momma bear, you don't want to be exhausted, carrying our little miracle must be tiring enough." We laid down with Jug spooning me and tracing circles on our little baby bump with my hand laying on top of his.
"Goodnight Juggie, I love you"
"Goodnight baby, I love both of you so much"
We both soon fell asleep dreaming about our little miracle.
