Jughead's POV: 4 Days later:
Slowly, I opened my eyes, my gorgeous girlfriend sleeping soundly in my arms - for the 4th night in a row. I smiled and kissed her hair. This was perfect. I knew if I moved, I would wake her so instead, I mumbled my favourite song.
Laying in the silence
Waiting for the sirens
Signs, any signs I'm alive still
I don't wanna lose it
I'm not getting through this
Hey, should I pray? should I pray
To myself? To a God?
To a saviour who can
Unbreak the broken
Unsay these spoken words
Find hope in the hopeless
Pull me out of the train wreck
Unburn the ashes
Unchain the reactions, I'm not ready to die, not yet
Pull me out of the train wreck
Pull me out, pull me out, pull me out
Pull me out, pull me out
Underneath our bad blood
We still got a sanctum, home
Still a home, still a home here
It's not too late to build it back
'Cause a one-in-a-million chance
Is still a chance, still a chance
And I would take those odds
Unbreak the broken
Unsay these spoken words
Find hope in the hopeless
Pull me out of the train wreck
Unburn the ashes
Unchain the reactions, I'm not ready to die, not yet
Pull me out the train wreck
Pull me out, pull me out, pull me out
Pull me out, pull me out, pull me out
You can say what you like 'cause see, I would die for you
I, I'm down on my knees and I need you to be my God
Be my help, be a savior who can
Unbreak the broken
Unsay these reckless words (find hope in the hopeless)
Pull me out of the train wreck
Unburn the ashes
Unchain the reactions, I'm not ready to die, not yet
Pull me out of the train wreck
Pull me out, pull me out, pull me out
Pull me out, pull me out, pull me out
Suddenly, Betts began to stir. I stopped singing instantly and froze. She slowly turned over and faced me.
"Morning, Handsome." she mumbled with a grin. I smiled and replied "Morning, Baby. Did you sleep OK?" she nodded and sighed happily.
"We best get ready, the first ultrasound is today." she said excitedly. I grinned and we slowly sat up. All of a sudden, Betts limped to the bathroom. Worried, I ran after her. She had locked the door so I stood by it listening to what was happening - she was throwing up.
" Betts, baby, what's wrong?" I asked, concerned.
"To be honest, I don't know, I think it might be morning sickness." she explained before throwing up again. I sighed.
"Can you let me in...I can hold your hair back, please." I pleaded. Shockingly, the lock clicked and the door swung open. I was met by a tired looking Betty leant against the bath in the floor.
"I look awful." she groaned, I shook my head.
"You look beautiful, sweetie." she glared at me in disbelief. I smiled and quickly rushed over to hug her and hold her hair back. 2 seconds later, she was throwing up again. Once she had stopped, I heard her groan. The two of us stayed there until we were certain Betts' morning sickness had finished. We then went and got dressed.
