Jugheads POV
I looked at Betty as I said "there's only two?"

She nodded and said "I'm sorry Jughead but I...I can't...you and Cheryl can take it, you can both be normal, you can both be human again..."

I shook my head "no I'm not doing that..."

She said "you have to...please..."

I shook my head and said "I want this with you..."

She cried saying "I've lived my life this long you need to live yours..."

I said "I love you, nothing is keeping me away."

She cried and said "no...please..."

She gave me the box and I set it aside "you're not gonna make me do something I don't wanna do..."

She frowned and said "but your family...your...your whole life..."

I said "I'm gonna to live it with you."

She sighed and I kissed her.

She cried saying "you don't deserve this."

I nodded saying "we can give it to Cheryl...she wants to do all of this stuff that...she has wanted."

She nodded and I kissed her forehead.

She told me "I love you..."

I nodded and told her "I won't be human because I don't want that, I want to be with you."

She sniffled and I held her face and kissed her, she held my hands and she laid me back on my bed. I held her waist as she looked at me.

She said "I'm sorry I destroyed your life..."

I shook my head holding her face "hey..."

She looked at me and I said "you made my life the happiest I have ever been, I love you so much..."

She smiled and I kissed her. She took off her shirt and I laughed and she smiled as I got my shirt off she laughed and I got her below me.

She smirked and I said "I love you."

She laughed and said "I love you more."

I smiled and she kissed me. Later that day I was with my parents.

I said "I can't become human again..."

They looked at me and I said "there's one cure... Cheryl should take it."

My parents sighed and I said "I love Betty...I don't want her to be alone..."

My mom said "we understand Jughead, you're in love."

I smiled and said "I'm sorry...I really wanted too...but Betty...I love her, more than I can express."

They smiled at me and Betty came down the stairs.

She said "hey..."

I smiled and she said "I offered...but he didn't want it."

My dad hugged me saying "it's okay...do what you have to do."

I smiled and looked at Betty as she walked over.

She said to them "take it..."

She gave one of the cures to my mom saying "keep it safe..."

She nodded and said "I gotta get this one too Cheryl."

She ran off and I looked at my mom.

She said "I'm gonna keep this safe okay?"

I nodded and she hugged me saying "I just...want you to be happy."

I smiled and she smiled back and went upstairs.

I sighed saying "I've gotta meet up with them."

They nodded and I left. We were at Betty's as Cheryl looked at us.

She said "this'll work?"

We nodded and she smiled and said "thank you..."

She hugged Betty and looked at her.

She said "so once I take this..."

Betty said "you can be human again..."

Cheryl looked at it but suddenly gave it back and Betty was confused.

"I actually enjoy being a vampire...I feel, free, I can do anything I want, whenever I want...I don't need it...I don't want to loose this new me..."

Betty said "that's okay..."

Cheryl hugged Betty saying "I know you never wanted this to happen...but thank you so much...I feel...free."

Cheryl smiled and Betty smiled and looked at me.

She hugged me and I laughed holding her and she said.

"Let's give this to Archie..."

I nodded and we left.

Bettys POV
I saw my brother and I opened his hand.

I placed the cure in his palm saying "Cheryl doesn't want it.."

He looked at me and said "Betty...it was meant for you."

I frowned and said "no it wasn't Archie...you never wanted this...but I needed you..."

He frowned and said "but you need it."

I smiled and hugged him saying "please...take it for me...I want you to be happy with Veronica... please..."

Be looked at me and said "I can't..."

I told him "please..."

He sighed and said "not now okay?"

I nodded and he put it back in the box and hugged me. I cried and he held my head and rubbed my back.

"You wanted to live your life...now you get too..."

He smiled and I sniffled saying "I'm gonna clear my head."

He nodded and I left.

I was alone near the river as I heard "hey..."

I turned seeing Jughead and he sat beside me.

"Summer is getting close..."

He sighed and I said "I don't know what I'm gonna do...without Archie."

He said "hey..."

I looked at him and he said "I'm not saying for you to let him go...but...you need to grow up now. This is the point in time where I am worried and afraid of being away from my parents...now that your brother has a chance at a new life...you need to accept that too."

I said "I know...I just...I just thought...it would've been different..."

He nodded holding my face and kissed me.

I held his and he caressed my cheek saying "plus now...we have all of eternity..."

I smiled and said "you don't want this..."

He shook his head "I do...I want all of it."

I cried and smiled and he smiled back and I kissed him.

He laughed and I did too as he said "now let's go to Pops, stuff our face with food, go home and have sex."

I laughed at him and he kissed my forehead "I love you..."

I frowned and laughed saying "I love you more..."
