i walked into school picking at my fingers, making them bleed slightly
"betty! come here we've got new students" i heard my bestie Veronica call out to me, my head turned around to face her, i smiled dropping my hands
"ooo who is it?" i shouted
"i don't know, but the guy with the beanie is hot" she fanned her face, pointing to the group of students standing, smoking cigarettes on the school steps
"he is" and as soon as i said that he turned around and made eye contact with me, he smiled softly and i smiled back, of course only to be polite he turned around and continued to talk with his friends
"betty tell me you saw that" Ronnie gasped
"well...duh" i giggled blushing like mad.
me and ronnie both walked into our class and saw the boy in the beanie again, sat next in my seat, i couldn't bring myself to tell him he was in the wrong seat, so i sat in another one next to him, i knew i'd get told off but this guy looked scary, the teacher eventually noticed halfway through the lesson
"Miss Cooper, your in the wrong seat" she bellowed
"i-uh yeah-sorry someone's in mine" i mumbled, my breathing quickened now realising that everyone was looking at me my face grew red
"Miss that's my fault, i think i'm in her seat, i'll swap" he got up and stood, towering over me, making my heart pound in my chest
could he hear how loud my heart was beating?
"t-thank y-you" i whispered terrified that if i spoke any louder i'd die, my hands started to shake uncontrollably
"sorry i was in your seat" he leaned over and whispered softly he grabbed my hand obviously trying to calm me down
"just breathe okay? i'm sorry i was in your seat, we swapped it's okay" he rubbed my hand and smiled warmly at me
"Class! let's started with our presentations, Betty Cooper your up first please bring up your flash drive and get it set up, i'll busy the class while you get ready" she smiled
"miss can i have just a few more minutes" i pleaded, really just wanting to calm myself down
"no, sorry but you need to do this now" she said, turning her attention towards the class, the boy turned to me, and grabbed my hand
"hey, you can do this" he smiled an squeezed my hand then let go, making me flash him a small smile and get up to walk to the front of the class
"my project is on Animal Rights and their specific organisations, the purpose of umm, sorry, um" my palms started to sweat again, my head was spinning
"miss Cooper, please hurry up"
"can you give her a break, you know how she gets, give her a second!" i heard Kevin shout at the teacher i smiled feebly at him and tried to calm down
"Miss Cooper please take 10 minutes outside to calm down and then come back and continue" i nodded and didn't say anything, just walking out of my lesson, my breathing still coming out in fits of air, i saw the boy get up and walk out of the classroom behind me, i didn't say anything i couldn't think straight, finding a wall i slid down it and buried my head in my knees
"you alright" he crouched down next to me placing his hand gently on my knee
"yeah" i mumbled tiredly my breathing continued to race uncontrollably
"hey hey, just try to relax okay? it's just me and you here, no one else, just keep breathing" he pulled me into his arms, rubbing my back up and down trying to calm my breathing, after a good twenty minutes and the teacher coming out and complaining i was feeling better
"thank you" i yawned
"anxiety makes you tired" he whispered stroking my hair
"how-" i asked in a confused tone
"my little sister has anxiety, you two have similar traits of it, shaking, heavy breathing, sweaty hands, she gets that, i know how to handle it" he chuckled softly
"oh" i mumbled
"yeah, it's tough, i know how bad it can be, if you ever need me, come and get me alright?" he stroked my hair before helping me up
"mhm" i smiled and walked back in, giving my presentation.
time skip 3 months.
i curled myself up in bed, wrapping myself in the blankets, my breathing was rocky and tough, i didn't know who to get so i decided to call Jughead
"betts? what's up?" he spoke through the phone i smiled just at the sound of his voice
"j-jug-i can't-"
"i'm on my way, give me two minutes it's all gonna be okay, just breathe slowly can you try that?" he said again, i could hear him grab his keys and slam his trailer door
"mhm" i mumbled he hung up and i was left to my own devices.
he really was only two minutes before i heard my mom let him in and hearing him run up the stairs and burst through my door
"hi" i whispered
"hey" he whispered back softly, walking over to me and bringing me into a hug
"you hear me breathing? follow that okay?" he soothed, pulling my head into his chest i nodded but kept trembling in his arms
"there you go, all okay now?" he kissed my head and squeezed me tight
"please don't leave" i whimpered, clutching onto him tighter i heard him chuckle softly
"you sure" i nodded on his chest and he pulled me closer letting me fall asleep
i slept well all night until i felt him get up and peel me off of him
"no, don't go" i whined stretching my arms out for him begging him to come back
"i'm not going anywhere baby, i need the bathroom" he smiled and kissed my forehead and walked into the bathroom i whined again and cuddled into the cover drifting back off into sleep, i heard his low chuckle and smiled
"night Princess" he kissed my cheek and pulled me back into his arms.
time skip 7 years.

betty opened up to me about her crippling anxiety and i helped her, a lot, i hope.
we then moved on to get married in a beautiful reception in New York, it was amazing, Betty's dress was stunning it brought out her curves and beautiful state, i could of cried, and i did.
a few months later Betty told me was pregnant, when she told me i couldn't of been happier, we had a little girl called Aria whom we loved more than life itself, a few years later we had another, a little boy called Harry who was just a cheeky as his sister.
"i love you" i kissed her hair after she'd breast fed Harry
"i love you too" she whispered back
