Fangs' POV

“I told you we shouldn’t be here Fangs”

“What’s the harm Pea it’s just an abandoned building”

“Haven't you ever heard the myth that people who go off exit 66 never come back”

“Exactly Pea,  a myth we will be fine no one lives here it’s abandoned besides were just exploring”

“I don’t know Fangs”

“Let’s go, unless you wanna go wait by the mailbox”

“No, uh it’s fine”

“That’s what I thought” Pea and I walked into the house the door opening right away no lock or anything. A beautiful home. It seemed like even though the outside was abandoned the inside was kept pristine.

“Wow…”

“This is…”

“Beautiful, I know thank you” Pea and I looked to the right to see a beautiful girl cascading down the staircase.

“I uh”

“So sorry uh we thought this house was abandoned” That’s when her teeth flashed before us.

“You're a… Your a”

“Vampire, well yes, I am”

“You are not welcome here get out!”

“Pea that is not going to work”

“Yes it is Fangs shut up, Get out vampire lady you are not welcome in this home!”

“I am centuries old. You need to do more than that to get rid of me.”

“But I thought…”

“Plus this is my house, not yours, and that shit is a myth anyways”

“I told you Pea, plus if she wanted to hurt us she would have already isn't that right?”

“Yes you could have been dead long ago if I wanted that, by the way, I’m Y/N”

“Beautiful”

“Thank you…”

“Fangs, so Y/N how long have you lived here”

“A few centuries or so” Our faces dropped, she did not look more than 18

“You look so young”

“Well after you’re turned you do not age, I was 19 when it happened to me”

“Oh…”

“It’s okay I quite enjoy it actually”

“Is it like the movies?”

“What do you mean?”

“Do you, you know, run fast, sparkle, have super strength”

“Can you turn into a bat”

“Pea there is no way she can turn into a bat!”

“Actually he’s right”

“What!”

“I am?”

“I uh, yeah he is. I can turn into a bat, however, I can not sparkle”

“That is so cool, I wish I could fly”

“Do you sleep?”

“I do just not as much as a normal person, I try to sleep during the day, but yeah I do sleep a bit, and yes I can sleep in a coffin but I prefer a super dark room with a bed”

“I wasn’t gonna say a coffin”

“Yes you were”

“Okay fine”

“Haha you know Fangs, Pea you're the first people that haven’t ran after meeting me”

“I’m sorry”

“It’s okay I am used to it by now, I just wish they wouldn’t run, everything would be okay if they didn’t”

“What do you…” Oh my god the myth, the reason everyone disappears. But she couldn’t, could she?”

“Oh my god, it’s you!”

“What do you mean Sweet Pea?”

“When the run do you kill them? Is that where the myth comes from!”

“How dare you ever say that! Get out of my home!” She flashed her teeth at us before retreating up the staircase.

Readers POV

You watch out your window as they slowly exited. It was not your fault that they thought that of you. Everyone thinks that once they meet you, but that is why they all run. That is why they all get killed. Because you can not protect them once they run, it always happens during the day. During the time you can't go out and help save them. The ghouls wait for it, wait for the time that the people run.

You heard a scream come from outside the window, your supersonic hearing letting the scream of Fangs ring through your ears. But you couldn’t go out it was daylight. You knew you needed to save them though. They were the first people that had a true liking for you, a true conversation. So you risked it, risked going out into the daylight for the boy you felt so, so drawn too.

You crashed down to the ground transforming. “Get off of them, need I remind you that you are on my territory”

“That never stopped you before Y/N”

“Yeah, maybe not but I care about them! Either you get off of them or it ends badly Malachai”

“I’d like to see you try Y/N, you against all of us, remember the last time you tried” You felt the burning of your skin but you ignored it.

“I will say it once more Malachai, get off of them” He stepped up to you.

“No.”

“Wrong choice, brother!” You lurched at him slamming him into the nearest tree before you heard his back crack. Then you went over to Shawn, your brother's right hand. Yanking him off of Sweet Pea before cracking his neck right in front of him. You sped over to James, pushing him to the ground as he tried stabbing you, and you stepped on his leg hearing it crack in half. You then saw Mel waiting to stab her knife into Fangs' chest.

“Don’t Mel!”

“Why not!”

“Because you do that and I kill your husband, and I bet you don't want that baby to be fatherless do you” You sped over to Malachai grabbing him by the neck. “You have one chance, Mel, he has three broken ribs. I heard each crack individually but I could crack his skull open too, I mean if you wanted, then maybe the house of the dead would have a true name”

“You wouldn't! He is your brother!”

“He lost that title when he left me for dead! Let him go”

“Fine” She dropped Fangs to the ground before grabbing Malachai from your grasp.

“I suggest you find another place to rule territory, go to Greenville, Centerville I do not care, but this land is mine. If I see you on my territory again I will not hesitate to snap your neck do you understand.

“I’ll make him stay away this time”

“There are no second chances Mel, one foot past the line and he's dead, now get off my land!” You watched them climb into their trucks and onto their bikes before speeding off. You fell to the ground in a fit of pain feeling the fabric stick to your charred skin. If out for much longer you would be drained of all abilities and be on the cusp of death, you needed to drink, you needed to heal. So you fled transforming and flying back to your home. You collapsed onto the ground once inside. You crawled up to your bedroom slowly making your way into the bath the skin burning with every inch of water that touched it. Luckily as a vampire, you healed fairly quickly but that did not mean the pain was any less. You stepped out of the bath trying to wrap your wounds but the pain was just too much to bear. You threw on a long shirt and laid on your couch by the window in your room. The moon, still shining so bright that the light seeped in through the open curtains.

“You saved my life” Your head whipped around to see Fangs standing in your doorway “sorry for intruding like this”

“It didn’t stop you before, where is Sweet Pea?”

“Back home”

“Oh, is he alright?”

“Yeah, thanks to you”

“Why are you so far away Fangs”

“I don’t want to intrude, I did that once already and we see how that turned out”

“Come closer.”

“Are you sure”

“Of course, I said it didn’t I” he stepped towards you taking a seat on the opposite end of the couch before looking into your eyes. You shifted your weight more to the edge to allow him more room and a grimace of pain crossed your face as you looked down to your arm.

“Y/N your skin!”

“Shh, I’ll be fine”

“What…”

“I don’t sparkle in the sun Fangs, I burn”

“Did this happen when you came and rescued us?”

“Yes, it did”

“Why, why would you hurt yourself like that Y/N. Fuck you could have died”

“I heal fast, I will be fine”

“That is not the point Y/N, you could have died, why would you do that”

“We aren’t all that bad.”

“I knew that from the start”

“Sweet Pea didn’t, I'm surprised you did. Everyone when they find me always assumes I am the reason for the myth but I am not. I don’t feed on human blood. I mean I have, I used to at first but then I didn’t want to do that. I don’t kill people”

“You did earlier to that one guy”

“He was a vampire Fangs, I do not count him as any guy, he deserved it he was going to hurt you.”

“Why aren't you running, why did you come here”

“To make sure you were alright, and to thank you for saving Sweet Pea and I”

“Like I said…”

“You're not all bad. I know that but that does not change the fact that you saved us even after Pea blamed you”

“It is not his fault, barely anyone knows that vampires exist, and when they find me I am automatically blamed for the myth, but it is not me at all it is Malachai. Every time I try to stop someone from running they just run out, and before I can stop them Malachai catches them. I can’t stay in the sun for long so I could never save them. I could never save them not one, and it kills me. I don’t want to be the scary vampire that is known for killing people it is not who I am”

“That is not your fault, but Why can Malachai be in the sun?”

“Drugs, Every time his kind mutates a new drug is formed, it prevents the sun from hurting them”

“Why don’t you…”

“It has a cost. You become hungrier so much hungrier. Animal blood would never satisfy it, human blood barely does. That is why he constantly kills. When I found out what he did I cut all ties with him. I should’ve cut them long ago when he, my own brother would not save me but as they say family forever. I just wanted him, he was the only family I had left. But as soon as I found out I left, moved in here. That is when people started coming around at first it was old friends he killed them, but one got away and that is where the myth started. For centuries it has been occurring, but no matter how hard I try I was never strong enough to stop him, until tonight”

“How did you do it?”

“You”

“What do you mean me”

“I do not know why, and I do not know-how. But something about tonight felt different. The sun was burning me but I was continuing. I felt strong in your presence. Felt a need to save your life without so much so as barely knowing your full name. I needed to save you. I know I am dead but I felt a bigger part of my soul would have died if you did tonight. I can not pinpoint why nor can I explain the connection I feel to you”

“I feel the same Y/N I can’t explain it either, it is the reason I came back here tonight, the reason that I wanted to see no needed to see that you were alright. I feel connected just as you said, in a way that can’t be explained by words. I want to know you, I want to understand you Y/N, would you tell me your story”

“Of course Fangs, what would you like to know?”

“Why are you so angry with your brother, I mean aside from the drugs. In the fight, you said he left you for dead what did you mean”

“Ah, the grand tale of how I was turned into the creature I am today. When I was little I was a very sick child, in and out of the hospital on constant medications. As I got older I grew better out of nowhere, my body started growing, my lungs working way better than their capacity had been and my heart beating and the normal tempos, ironic isn't it. Well anyway. My father and mother were a part of the gang called the Ghoulies. Within that gang, there was a variety of creatures that a human as yourself would call mythical. Most are not in existence today. However, my mother found an individual a warlock healer, she sold things to him in return for him to practice his magic on me, she was trying to make me better. Things went south when the warlocks believed he had gained enough skills to take over my parents' territory and that he did. But in doing so he had completely wiped his magic out of my system causing me to grow sick very very quickly. My mother, father, as well as Malachai and myself, had begun to flee, making it a few towns over to get out of his line of sight for a while. I lived a year being very sick but alive. That is when the warlock found us, he never stopped felt my parents were a massive threat to the empire he felt he had built. They died protecting me and Malachai. I could not fight I was too weak. It was up to my parents and him to destroy the warlock but it was to no avail. My parents died protecting us, protecting me because I myself was not strong enough to fight. Malachai blamed me, and I grew sicker and sicker. Before my parents defeated the warlock I was cursed by one of his followers, a witch that he had bed. She cursed me saying that once the love of my family dies I die as well. Malachai slowly lost love for me, stopped taking care of me, due to feeling like I was to blame for our parents' death. During a fight of territory, he had left me in my room as many of the gang fled. The further Malachai got the sicker I grew. I was found by a woman. She brought her friend who was a vampire. She tried curing me however her powers were not strong enough to heal me so she had to have her vampire friend turn me. She apologized for hours as her venom coursed through my veins, stayed with me as I turned. It was the most painful experience of my life, but without her, I would not be alive. After I was turned, and after I healed she released the curse from me. She had also put a new spell on me, however, I still do not know what it means. I wish I could find her but the only detail of her I remember to this day is the snake tattoo that she bared on her hand. It was a serpent of sorts that started upon her hand and climbed its way up her arm”

“Wow”

“That is my story I am sorry to bore you with the details it is a sad one, but I am happy as I am now however I am sorry that you had to meet me, then you would have never had to be in danger”

“Y/N you saved us you do not have to apologize for us meeting you. You know I always felt a hole in my heart, a place that never quite felt full after my Abuela died. But I think I find the perfect fit to patch that hole up”

“What do you mean Fangs?”

“You Y/N you are the cover to the hole that I have felt since I was young. The woman in your story, the one that saved your life that was my Abuela”

“What, how do you…”

“I know because she is the only Serpent in history to have gotten a snake on her hand that wrapped up her entire arm like you described”

“Fangs that is very unlik…” You felt the burn, but not in the same way that you normally do, this was a warm feeling not a painful torturous one. As you watched a snake appear onto your skin, now you finally understood the spell that was put on you all those years ago.

“Fangs, I remember some of the spell, but I do not remember it all.. Could we talk to your grandmother”

“I Uh, she passed a few years ago”

“I am so sorry for asking Fangs”

“It’s alright, anyway what do you remember about the spell”

“It was long, it started with something about healing me, healing my soul and that would happen when a met someone I remember one part it was something like ‘When a soul is complete with a love so true” but that is all I can remember why is that all I can remember, I wish I had known more, wish I could know what it always meant for me...

“My grandma always said before I would fall asleep ‘May a snake appear and wrap around to seal the soul between two’

“That’s it Fangs, that is the rest of the spell”

“I guess it does all make sense. “When a soul is complete with a love so true may a snake appear and wrap around to seal the soul between two” You felt the burning once again before the snake moved almost showing a connection between the one on your and Fangs’s arm. “Ow, what the fuck was that”.

“I think you just permanently linked our souls even more than your grandmother once had, uh Fangs I think you may be a warlock”

“You mean to tell me that I am a warlock, and I just sealed our souls forever, I am so sorry”

“Why are you apologizing, I have no issue being your soulmate Fangs, unless you are upset because you have an issue with yours being a vampire”

“I would never be upset with you being a vampire, honestly kind of badass to be honest”

“Oh shut up Fogarty, oh look we talked through the night, what are you going to do today, since you now know you have abilities beyond what you once knew”

“I want to practice, and get better at spells, But I need to work hard, I want to make my first spell to be one that helps you to be in the sun. I want to spend my life with you out in the openness in pure happiness”

“You would do that, it could take years…”

“Then years it will be Y/N, we are soul mates after all, but if we are going to spend our lives together, I can die at some point I may need you to turn me”

“I can’t do that to you”

“You can if I am asking”

“Fangs…”

“Forever and then some Y/N” could you turn him? What if it went haywire? What if he lost his warlock abilities? What if he died? But he wanted to spend his life with you? Was it worth it? Maybe? But forever? Forever…

“Forever and then some Fangs”

                      ----------------------------------------------------------

*Epilogue*

It had been three years since Fangs and yourself had met and realized you were soulmates. Things had happened so quickly but you wouldn’t change it any other way. He was the love of your life, your soulmate. You began to wonder whether it was his grandmothers doing all along. Did she knew he would be your soulmate from the start? She did. Fangs and yourself had been scouring her house on any spell books that he could use and practice with, and you came across a journal that she had written throughout her entire life. Fangs had assumed she died of old age but that was not the case. She traded her life for that of another, but it was not sad because as she mentioned in her book saving and protecting others was her life's work. The journals had told you both that the day Sweet Pea was shot she traded her life for the eternal life of his own, meaning Sweet Pea would live and never die. Without her Sweet Pea would have been dead. Fangs always wondered why she had passed right after he was shot and still in a coma. It gave Fangs closure, she knew he would fine you, that you would grant him eternity as well. Wondered why the day he came out of it was the day she died, but now it had all made sense along with so much more. The journal also contained your story. The way she found you, how she knew that you were linked to her lifeline, her grandson. How she had to save you or Fangs would never have survived. They say people with soulmates are each other's lifeline. Without one the other wilts away. You were soulmates, yes, but the love you feel for one another went far beyond that.

Finding the book gave you so much insight, but nothing about how Fangs could fix what the sun chooses to do to you. Two years he tried He tried using a spell to call upon mother nature but that went badly (she doesn't like to be disturbed). He called upon an old friend, but they knew nothing to aid in his search. For two years now he has been non stop researching ways that he could help you. And through every tria,l a little bit more of him wilted away. You could feel every failure, every scare he had when it wouldn;t work and you would get burned. He constantly blamed himself for causing you pain when he was just trying to help. You had finally made him understand that it was alright, that you did not need to live able to go into the sun to enjoy life you had. He was the light of your life, all you wanted was him and if you had gotten the sun that was just a bonus.

But another year of non step tests and trials came to no avail. He did not give up though it was the only thing he worked on for 2 months straight until he was called upon to go on a serpent mission. He was not going to go but you forced Pea to take him. Saying that he needed time away. A month later he came back with two gifts you only had seen in your dreams. A daylighter ring was the first. A ring that contained Lapis Lazuli a gemstone that when combined with magic could protect a vampire that it was intended for against daylight. You remember it like it was yesterday. The second gift came right after.

*Flashback*

“Fangs you have just come back do we have to try another experiment so soon?”

“Yes Y/N we do I just finished this one and I am sure that it will work, just rub this lotion on you” It was a trick but one you did not fall for instantly.

“Fine”

“Now let’s go” he covered you in a weighted blanket like many times before, one that blocked the sun's UV rays from penetrating your sensitive skin. He brought you to the top of the mountain behind your home, the one that overlooked the entire town.  He told you to take the blanket off and you did, finding him down on one knee. The burning had started but before it could hurt you a ring was slid over your finger and you did not feel anything after.

“It works, oh my god it fucking works, Y/N you’re not burning!”

“Fangs…”

“Oh right sorry got excited. Y/N Y/LN with this wring I protect you for eternity, the suns ray never harm a cell of your skin again. But that isn’t all it is meant for. I am using this write to make us eternal as well.Y/N will you do me the honor of being my wife”

“Forever and then some”

                    ----------------------------------------------------------

Fangs begged for months for you to turn him before the wedding, he wanted to be eternal with you, to never have the fear of dying. But you couldn’t you did not want to cause him the same pain that you felt all those years ago. That was until you felt drawn to his grandmother's grave. There you found a book lying upon the dirt. A book that contained a letter written by her, to you. “My dear Y/N if you are finding this book it has ascended from beneath, haha yes I do watch over the both of you. You have found my boy, my grandson, and he now means just as much to you as he once did to me. I know you are scared, terrified by what he is asking but I know deep down it is his true desire. With you, with him, he can live a life of eternity by your side, but for that to happen you have to make a decision. Now I can float here, get it cause I'm a ghost, I am kidding dear we have feet, anyway I could tell you all the reasons you should, all the reasons he wants to be turned but there is only one that truly matters. His love for you. Without you, he would have died of an empty heart when I passed. I knew my time had come I was alright with that because I knew he would be led to you when he found an old map I had to your home. Regardless, I know you are a stubborn girl, I know you will bear in mind all the things I have said, but I know all too well you will choose whatever you want in the end. Remember the quote you said to each other when you first met “forever and then some”. Make that a reality my dear girl. There is much love and happiness in store for the both of you, please tell my Fangsy that I love him” That letter helped you understand so much. You always felt you had a guardian angel and now you knew she was yours. You now knew where fangs' jokes came from, and you now knew your final decision.

                   ----------------------------------------------------------

Your wedding day was one made of magic and love. Fangs had officially been a vampire for a few months. It hurt when you turned him, it hurt you to see him hurting but you knew it was needed. You knew that if you did not turn him he would have found a way to become eternal and it would not have gone over well. The morning of your wedding was magical. It was in the woods a beautiful ceremony with your closest family and friends. Oh, and did I mention that Malachai and yourself made amends. Fangs found a way to extract tiny amounts of lapis lazuli from the core that he had found while on the serpent mission. He kept some so that you would have backups if needed but he made additional jewelry for Malachai and his wife. You needed to make amends and you knew that the only reason hatred brewed between the two of you was over bloodthirst. Yes, he had left you but he was angry upset that your parents had died and not realized the true reasons why. Abuelas book helped with that as well. Regardless Malachai though he had his own territory now was welcome onto your land. And you found out you were an aunt to a little girl.

But that was not the best gift that you received on your wedding day, and neither was the man that you were going to be with for eternity, no. The best gift you received was growing inside of you. You were pregnant. Pregnant with three children. Each of whom were born with gifts much like you and fangs.

Your Vows, Simple and Sweet.

“Forever and then some Fangs”

“Is she okay!”

“Sir are you family”

“We are all family” FP stood in front of the doctor then.

“Well good news, no great news. They are both going to be just fine the bullet missed many…”

“Wait… huh?” Did I hear what he said correctly? Did he say both? There is no way… well I mean there is, however… she would've told me. “Uhm doc you said both…?”

“Yes, both Miss Jones and the baby are doing great. Vitals are great and they are both very healthy”

“Oh my god”

“Are you alright sir” My face fell, I was gonna be a dad. How did I not know I was gonna be a dad.

“You knocked up my daughter!”

“Sir I need you to stop yelling or you will be escorted out of the hospital”

“Let’s take a walk dad”

“I’m gonna be a dad…”

“Oh your the father congratulations”

“Thank you… uhm are you sure everything is alright with the baby I don’t think Y/N knows yet”

“Well we checked on both her and the child as far as it looks like everything is great, I can give you a name of a few doctors she can choose from for further check ups if you would like”

“That would be great thank you”

“Well sir again congratulations and if you would like to go visit her she is in room 124. She should be awake by now I will be in soon to let you guys know everything. I would like her to stay the night for observation though” The doc left but I stood still.

“Fogarty you good”

“No how am I gonna do this Pea?”

“What do you mean?”

“I’m gonna be a dad, Pea. I… I don’t even have a dad how the fuck am I gonna do this. How am I gonna fucking raise a child? I can’t raise a child!”

“Look at me. Your having a baby with Y/N the girl who you say is the life of your life. Fuck not having a dad in your own life. Your gonna be a great dad, you know why Fogarty? Your gonna be a great dad cause your gonna be better than your own and your already a step ahead cause you haven't left yet”

“What if…”

“No stop with the fuckin what if’s it ain't gonna be rainbows and unicorns… well maybe if you have a girl but you get my point. It may not be easy but you guys are gonna be fine. You have each other, fuck you have an entire family standing in this room right now that are gonna be there for both of you. I’m here for you and I’m here for her okay, you’re not alone in this”

“Thank you Pea”

“Oh shut up you know you don’t need to thank me. Now go get your girls Fogarty”

“Girls we don’t…”

“Oh that’s my guess you gonna have a mini Y/N running around”

“Save me now”

“Go you idiot” It was time to see my girl, and meet my baby for the first time. Well, not meet but see. No not see touch, I don’t...  first time to be in the presence of my baby. I had to tell her because she didn’t even know yet.

*Knocks* Y/N POV

“Come in”

“Hi baby, how you feeling”

“I’m okay now they gave me some more medicine for the pain”

“I thought I lost you…”

“Fangs!” You couldn’t hold the tears in.

“Hey, hey I’m right here no need to cry baby it’s okay, your okay now” You watched as he brought your hands to his lips and felt tears slipping out of his eyes.

“Well if I’m not allowed to cry you’re not allowed either”

“Hey I deserve to cry, my worst nightmare came true when I thought I was gonna lose you. Fuck I thought you were gone. Why would you do that!”

“What like I wanted to get shot”

“No but why did you push me out of the way, I should be in here not you not…”

“I’m sorry okay I barely had time to think after I saw the gun, but you know I don’t regret it for one second. The doc said that if I had been over even a tiny bit more it would have hit a major artery. So you know maybe me pushing you out of the way was the better thing because I couldn’t handle you dying Fangs. I need you now more than ever. I'm sorry I put our baby in danger though I didn’t know. I’m already risking her life how am I gonna fucking do this” You put your baby in danger. Yeah, you may not have had any idea that you were pregnant, but you could’ve killed her with that gunshot. You felt like you were gonna be a terrible mother. You had nothing to go off of. Your mother left you years ago when you and Jug were around 3 years old.

“Hey you are going to be a great mother Y/N”

“But I have nothing to go off of Fangs, fuck I never had a mom how will I…”

“I said the same things earlier”

“Hey! I love your mother”

“No, no about my dad baby”

“Fangs… your way better than him”

“I know that now. Pea kinda stopped me from freaking out but he said something important. He said You have each other, fuck you have an entire family standing in this room right now that are gonna be there for both of you. And he’s right we have an entire family backing us. Hell even if we didn’t there is no one I’d rather be having a baby with”

“Fangs we’re so young though how are we gonna do this!”

“I don’t know but we will figure it out”

“Fangs I get if you wanna leave this shouldn’t be your problem I should've been more careful”

“I’m not going anywhere. Plus it kinda is my fault… ya know. We made a baby together so that is kinda like 50% my fault”

“You're a dork”

“Oh I know, A dork that fucking loves you and this child till the end of time. I am so happy to be having a baby with you Y/N. I mean I am scared shitless but I am so fucking happy” He leaned in slowly placing his hand on your stomach as he brought his lips to your own.

“Fangs can you come lay with me… miss you”

“I’m right here baby. I don’t wanna hurt you”

“Please” You scooted over slightly and he took his boots off and laid his jacket over the chair before climbing into the bed. “Thank you”

“I’m just here to please my queen”

“Shut up”

“I love you”

“I love you too” You laid your head on his chest.

“I’ll be right here when you wake up, not gonna move okay”

“Okay” You slowly drifted to sleep. With him everything was calm. You could always sleep in his arms no matter the situation. He was warm, comfortable. He was home.

*knock*

You slept for about a half-hour cuddled into the chest of Fangs. You slowly drifting into consciousness recognizing the sounds of your father and brother talking to Fangs, but you wanted to hear what they had to say so you pretended to be asleep.

“How is my baby?”

“She’s doing okay, she was in a little pain but they gave her more medicine for it. I think that’s why she fell asleep”

“It’s weird not having my sister up and yelling”

“She only yells cause she cares”

“I know”

“Look FP, Jug I am so sorry”

“No boy, stop. I’m sorry I never should have blamed you for her getting shot. It was her choice, hell I would’ve done it if it was her in your position too. Hell, we all would’ve done it so I get it. I understand her choice. I mean I’d rather her not have done it but still, I’m not upset with you, I’m not upset with her”

“Fangs, I’m sorry for turning in that tape to the sheriff. I just, I thought you had cheated and I was so mad. She’s just my sis you know and I got a step ahead of myself”

“It’s fine. You just wanted to protect her, I get it. I feel the same way. I would do anything to protect her. Hell I would’ve probably done the same thing”

“You really love her huh?”

“She’s my everything Jug. With her, nothing can go wrong. We could be sitting there doing nothing just being in her company makes me undeniably happy and now, now I have this little bean growing inside of her that’s half mine and somehow I love her even more if that is even possible”

“Fogarty… look boy I’m sorry I got over my head earlier when the doc told us. I was so shocked. Their mom and I were so young when we had them I didn’t want that life for her, but ya know you're a better man than I was and I know you're going to be there. I just wanna say sorry for getting pissed and sorry for yell…” He yelled at your man. The one thing you always tell him not to do since the first time he did it.

“I’m sorry dad you what!”

“Oh hi, baby glad your awake uhm…”

“Dad I swear to god if I could get up out of this bed quick enough I…”

“I know baby I already apologized, I’m sorry. We were all kinda shocked with the whole you getting shot and then the whole baby thing it was just a lot. I am glad you're okay I don’t know what I would’ve done” See the thing with your father was it was not often that he cried. But you saw the tears in his eyes.

“Dad… hey come here give me a hug, I’m okay”

“I know I just”

“No, we are not thinking about that. I am fine and that is all that matters. Your grandchild and I are fine we don’t need to think about the what if’s”

“Okay, hey ima head home do you need anything?”

“No, I’m okay dad thankyou”

“Bye sis”

“Bye Juggy” You watched as they closed the door. You instantly snuggled back into Fang’s chest.

“Wanna go home Fangs”

“Doc said you gotta stay till tomorrow morning baby, he wants to make sure everything is good with you two”

“Well, then you should go home and get some sleep babe, just pick me up tomorrow” He started laughing and you didn’t understand why. “Uhm…”

“Your funny Jones”

“What are you talking about?”

“Go home… are you insane? Oh, sweet girl, you ain’t getting out of my sight. I told you I would be here when you wake up. I’m not leaving”

“What if they kick you out”

“I’ll hide in the closet”

“You are insane”

“I know… now get some sleep baby and tomorrow we can go home okay, promise”

“I love you Fogarty” with a kiss to the top of your head you slowly drifted to sleep. You woke up the next morning to kissed on your forehead and a hand rubbing circle along your stomach.

“Hi baby”

“Hi sweet girl”

“I love seeing you open your eyes thought I would never…”

“Stop”

“I’m sorry”

“I know it was hard Fangs, I get what I did was hard for everyone, just wanna forget”

“Okay baby, hey the doc came in said you can go if your feeling alright. I had Pea grab us clothes so if you wanna get dressed we can head out”

“I’m fine not too much pain, I just wanna go home”

“Okay, can you let go so I can get up?”

“But you're so warm”

“Okay I know but… we can be warm in our own bed if you let me take you home”

“Okay”

“He stood up grabbing the duffel and placing it on the bed. You stood up Fangs helping you as you gabbed the clothes from him. You took your pants of but leaning down hurt a bit.

“Fangs…” “You okay?”

“This is embarrassing”

“What is?”

“Need help getting dressed, it hurts a bit. But nevermind I can do it”

“No, I’m right here, I wanna help. Baby that isn’t embarrassing” He began helping you step into the clothes. “Imagine in a few months you’ll be in the same boat won’t even be able to tie your own shoes”

“Oh no…” You looked down in embarrassment.

“Hey, hey but don’t worry I'll  be right here just like I am now”

“I know babe”

“Alright, you good to go?”

“Mhm,” He grabbed your arm helping you walk out of the room.

“Say goodbye to the hospital baby because we are not ever stepping foot back in here for you unless it’s for that little bean growing in your stomach got it” You were signing the paperwork to check out when Fangs turned to the nurse “You know the next time we are here she’s gonna be having our baby” You laughed at his antics. He could always make you laugh no matter what. He was so happy, you saw the light in his eyes when he talked about the little bean you were carrying. His little bean.

“We’re here” Jug and I grabbed her in our arms carrying her in screaming for someone to help but no one was moving. “Someone help us!” Jug had me support her as he grabbed a nurse.

“We have a female with a gunshot wound please help her, please” The nurse just shook her head before a doctor barged out.

“What is going on?”

“My girl got shot, sir please help her, please you gotta”

“Get me a gurney now!” I tried following them back but was stopped by the doctor.

“Son you can’t come back here I’m sorry, wait out front”

“I need her! I can’t let her be by herself”

“If you need her, then let me help her!”

“Take care of her!”

The doctor disappeared behind the doors, my last glance at Y/N was her eyes closed on the gurney. Fuck what I would give to be able to see her eyes again. I just stood there before Pea came over grabbing my arm and leading me to a chair next to Toni. Jones nowhere in sight. I sat on the chair not able to move. All I wanted was for her to be okay, to see her eyes again, see her again. I didn’t even realize what was going on until I felt my back slam against a wall. Jughead grabbed me up out of the chair shoving me into the wall. I didn’t say anything, he was angry I knew that. He was pissed and he had a right to be it was all my fault.

“I fucking told her to stay home, told her to fucking wait and that I would bring you to her but no of course not. Fuck Fangs why would you let her do that. She just had to fucking come and see you, had to push you out of the way of that stupid fucking bullet. That should be you back there not her!”

“Let him go Jug, he didn’t do anything”

FP ran in then.

“Where is she! Where’s my daughter?”

“She’s in surgery dad” Jughead had me held up as FP began yelling in my face as well.

“Is she gonna make it? What did they say?”

“I don’t know, they just took her back”

“This is your fault Fogarty, why the fuck would you let her push you”

I stayed silent, my eyes glossed over with tears about to spill.

“I told you to protect her! The one fucking thing I asked of you when it came to my baby girl and you fucking failed. Failed Fogarty and now she’s back there fighting for her god damn life.”

Jughead pressed me harder against the wall. “If she dies Fangs. I’ll fucking end you.”

“I…” Sweet Pea came over shoving them off of me.

“Cool it, Jones, let him down”

“Need I remind you I am your leader Sweet Pea!”

“Fuck off Jones, get off your leader bullshit for one minute. Fucking think for one second. Your daughter and your sister is back there fighting for her life because she stepped in front of Fangs. You standing here yelling at Fangs isn’t gonna change that she is back there fighting! Yeah, maybe it wasn’t her best decision but she did it because she loves him. Because she cares about him more than anything else in this world. So maybe you both need to go take a walk or something. You need to let him down don’t you see he is hurting just as much as you, he’s just letting you yell at him taking all your hits because he doesn’t care about anything but being able to see Y/N again. I don’t really give a shit what you do but stop fucking yelling at him for no reason because it’s stupid to blame anyone here but Mantle who had the gun, which by the way anyone know where he is?!” Jughead let me down right then as FP grabbed his shoulder walking out of the hospital. As soon as he let me go I fell to my knees. I couldn’t hold it in anymore, tears came down full force. Usually, I wouldn’t cry but right here right now I didn’t care at all. I looked up to Pea who had kneeled in front of me.

“What if she… what if she’s gone because of me. It’s my fault, Pea. What if…”

“Stop with the what if’s Fogarty you know how fucking strong she is. Think about it, she is basically indestructible. Hell think about when we met her”

“Your right Pea. Fuck she was such a badass.”

“Yeah, I remember you were flirting with her but she poured the milkshake on you and told you that you were thirsty. Oh my god, I remember it like it was yesterday. She wanted to fucking smack you when you said you wouldn’t have been able to drink it anyway cause your lactose intolerant”

“ Oh yeah I forgot about that part”

“She was pissed”

“I know I thought she was about to throw mine on you two, but remember she just took it cause she wasted hers on you. Said she deserved it”

“She always says she loves your smart ass comments, guess that’s why you guys fit so well. She has the same exact ones makes me wanna pull my hair out”

“Pea, Oh my god remember the time that dude smacked her ass and she put him into a chokehold and basically body-slammed him. That dude was like twice her size ahha”

“Yeah and we were standing to the side and you wanted to take care of him for touching your girl”

“Dude I was pissed wanted to shove him across the room but she beat me to it”

“I thought she was just gonna smack him across the face or something, but nope she really went there. No guys mess with her now!”

“I remember our first date too fuck remember I called you freaking out, I screwed it up so bad but she didn’t care”

“What when you caught the pasta on fire?”

“Look I don’t know what happened”

“I do, you forgot the water, you know the one thing pasta needs to cook and uhm I don’t know not burn!”

“I was nervous!”

“Wasn’t she talking to Toni when she pulled up”

“Yeah Toni tells me about it all the time, I’ll never live it down. She pulled up when the stove was on fire and saw me trying to put it out through the window, she rushed in and fixed everything up. She started eating the hard pasta just to make me feel good. Turns out she actually likes chewing on hard pasta. But anyway we went to Pops after though and it was all good. But she did make me drink a few sips of her milkshake cause she ‘wanted me to try how good it was’ and I regretted that instantly”

“Oh yeah you kicked her out of your trailer after bringing her back cause of your terrible gas, haha she called me and asked if you had some condition or something!”

“Wait she what!”

“Oh, I wasn’t supposed to tell you that… oops”

“We have been dating for years and you haven’t told me that she thought I had some farting disorder!”

“She promised me to secrecy Fogarty”

“Jesus Christ”

“She fixed everything that night, she always does. With her, it’s like nothing can go wrong. Even if I’m in the worst mood everything turns up when I see her. Literally, with her everything is right. Fuck Pea… I can’t lose her. I won’t”

“She’s gonna be fine she always is. Plus she wouldn’t leave me here to deal with your ass alone. Now go sit down I'm gonna grab you some food”

“Thanks” FP and Jughead came back in as Pea sat down and handed me a sandwich.

“Any word yet?”

“No”

“Fuck” Fp slammed his fist into the wall

“She’s gonna be okay I know it”

“You know nothing Fogarty!”

“No shit FP, I know nothing because none of us have heard anything and we have been here all night. I haven’t moved a fucking muscle. Look FP I love her just as much as you do. She is my fucking everything okay. I would do anything. Don’t you think if I could be the one in there right now I would be! She is my life, my world. I… fuck I need her back as much as you do… I need her”

“Look I’m sorry Fogarty I just… she’s my baby girl, my everything too. I don’t wanna lose her either. Fuck if she knew I yelled at you she would be wringing my neck right now, fuck I’d give anything for that to happen right now”

“She’s gonna be okay”

“You don…”

“I may not know for sure, I may not know what is going on. But Y/N is a fucking fighter you know that more than anyone. Who was there with Jug when you went downhill FP. Who stayed and had your back that entire time even though her father was slowly slipping away. Who took care of the Serpents why you were going through all that shit. Fuck who took care of Peabody! Y/N is the strongest person I have met in my entire life. She will get through this. I know it”

“But you don’t know that Fogarty I could lose my daughter!”

“Yeah and I could lose the one person who means the most to me in the world so I guess we're in the same boat FP”

“Both of you need to stop. She wouldn’t want you fighting. Fuck I could lose my sister, Pea could lose his best friend. The serpents lose their family, but we won’t because she is strong as hell we all know that. She is going to be okay”

“People for Y/N Jones” The doctor came out then I stood right up along with everyone else.

You and Fangs had been dating for years, you loved him - more than loved him. You had been through everything together. The ups and downs of the Serpents, the Northside vs Southside feud, and everything else that had hit your relationship in the past. You had been going stronger than ever for the last few months, nothing truly affecting you too bad except when Fangs started dealing. You understood why, and you understand the things he had to do, but you found him an out and he took it. That took a toll on your relationship. You were so scared for him then, but you saved him and got him back. After all the drugs and rejoining the Serpents, he wanted his mind off of the drugs and off of the Serpents so you both decided to join the play. Theatre was one of his favorite things, and if it made him happy you would follow.

You were both doing the play together alongside your friends Toni and Sweet Pea, so everything was looking up until Kevin told everyone that there would be a new co-director. You had met the co-director one other time when she walked into the class for the first time, you had ignored her name then. Evelyn Evernever apparently her father ran the “Farm” more so the cult that had made its way into Riverdale. You knew Betty Cooper was investigating them due to her mother joining but you didn’t know anything more than that. You didn’t trust Evelyn, but as a co-director, you had to at least follow her and her views. Evelyn got close, so close that she pulled someone away from you. You ignored her until you couldn’t anymore because it meant risking the loss of the one person you cared the absolute most for.

*Flashback*

For weeks now Fangs had been acting funny. He was one of the leads in the play so he was always busy, but on most nights he would come home even later than you would see Sweets and Toni coming home and they were leads as well. Fangs kept saying that he was either at the play or on Serpent business but you didn’t believe that to be true. He told you again he was going to be out, that he was on Serpent business, he told you he would be home but he still was out and you had begun to worry. Even though he had been lying or so you thought he always came home on time. You waited till an hour after he was supposed to be home before you called him.

“Fangs baby?”

“Hey Y/N what’s up?”

“Uh are you coming home, it’s late”

“I will be home when I get there what is your problem”

“Well uh you told me you would be home at 9 and it’s 12 now I just… I was worrying”

“Well, you need to stop I will be home later” You waited till he came home, hours later. It was now 4 am and he was just walking through the door.

“Where were you Fangs!”

“I was out! What does it matter?”

“Becuase I fucking worry Fangs, I fucking worry that you won’t come home in one piece when you are out on those jobs, don’t you get that”

“You need to calm the fuck down babe, there really isn’t anything to worry about. I am safe where I am, no one would hurt me Y/N”

“What do you mean no one, rival gangs you idiot”

“Oh yeah well”

“Oh my fucking god you weren’t on a job were you!”

“Why do you keep questioning me” He stepped up trying to appear bigger, almost trying to tower over you more than he already did, as if he was trying to make you fear him. You ran out of the trailer that night not turning back and you had slept in your car. You couldn’t sleep next to him, not with him being like that.

The next night you followed him to the “serpent job” that he was on. As you did you found him standing over a fire with Kevin and other people you had never met before,  but at the end of it stood Evelyn Evernever. By the time you had got there, Fangs had already been walking on the hot coals and you heard the tagline you had seen on the majority of Evelyn’s shirts. “May the one become many and the many one” You ran, tears streaming down your face, you ran to one of the places you felt safe, Sweet Pea’s trailer. Knocking on the door frantically you waited for him to answer but he hadn’t. You knew Toni was working so you couldn’t go to the bar because you didn’t want to see people, so you waited on Sweet Pea’s doorstep tears streaming down your face.

“Y/N!”

“Pea!” You stood up pulling him into a hug

“Pea they… they got him”

“Got who Y/N what’s going on?”

“Fangs! The Farm!”

“Wait… wait, slow down”

“He has been acting funny, angry just not the normal Fangs I questioned him on it the other night because he lied saying he was at a Serpent job. He stood up almost trying to tower over me and I ran out of the trailer and slept in my car, I was so scared Pea I have never seen him like that. Then tonight he told me he was going on a job again so I followed him Pea “

“Where did he go”

“It was odd small paths deep in fox forest. He walked across a lit coal pit and then Evelyn was there I think it was some sort of induction or something, I don’t know. Pea, I can’t lose him not like I almost did before. I can’t go through that again Pea I can’t” Pea slowly lowered the both of you onto the steps pulling you to him as you cried into his chest.

“We will get him back, I promise”

*Flashback over*

That night meant that he was a part of it, but you couldn’t say anything, you knew that if you did he would be defensive like he had been all those nights that he came home late. You told Pea that night and he was the only one that knew. You both said nothing, knowing that if you did he would be as defensive as he was before. You and Pea both let Fangs go on and on about how good the play was going and how he was becoming very close with Evelyn and the other people from the Farm. You both pretended to be supportive, pretended to understand the things that Edgar was doing.  It had been weeks since Fangs joined the farm. A month and two weeks to be exact. You dropped out of the play without Fangs noticing. Even opening night he didn’t notice you sitting in the crowd. You were taking care of everything including his own mother. Fangs wasn’t noticing or doing anything lately, he didn't care about anything. Anything including the fact that you were pregnant. The only person who truly knew was Sweet Pea.

*Flashback*

You sat sitting by the bathroom counter not answering the multiple phone calls and text messages you had. It was as if you were frozen in time. Fangs was not answering like always and he was the only person you needed in the situation you were in. You were scared beyond anything for multiple reasons but you needed him and he wasn't there. You sat there sobbing for what felt like hours the anxiety welling inside of your chest. You hear a knock and someone enter your home but you didn’t care you couldn’t in that moment. Only the people you trusted the most had a key so you knew you would be fine. You sat there sobbing your chest feeling tighter and tighter each moment. Then you heard the bangs on the bathroom door and the shouts of Sweet Pea through it.

“Y/N, Y/N are you okay?” but you couldn’t respond. You tried but all that came out was louder cries. “Y/N open the door please” you tried to move but your body felt numb. He kept banging and banging but you couldn’t do anything. “Y/N move away from the door, try to. I am breaking it down if you don’t open it” You heard the kick and then the snap of the door knocking off of its hinges. You looked up with clouded vision into Sweet Pea’s eyes as he fell to the floor grabbing you tightly.

“What’s going on? Did he hurt you!”

“N, no”

“Talk to me Y/N, please” You couldn’t you were lucky “you” came out of your mouth. So instead you handed him the stick that was clutched inside of your hand so tightly you felt the tingles when you had given it to him. Sweet Pea remained silent as he stared down at the stick that you had placed into his hand.

“Pea.. say something please”

“It’s gonna be okay”

“That is the worst possible thing you could have chosen Pea. You have no idea what is going to happen. Hell where the fuck is Fangs, he was supposed to be home and he is not, how am I going to do this?” Your cries were louder and your shaking harder as Sweet Pea held tighter rocking you back and forth.

“Hey, hey, hey. Y/N listen to me. We are going to figure out this shit with Fangs okay? Fuck I will do whatever it takes to get his ass out of the farm okay. But you listen to me and listen well okay. If he doesn’t stop with this bullshit. I will be here for you and this baby. He is my best friend and he may be a crazy psycho right now, so I will take care of you no matter what, I promise.”

“I, I can’t ask you to do that Sweet Pea, you have your own life to live. I, I can’t Sweet Pea”

“You stop it Y/N. You are not asking I am telling you. I will take care of you and this baby I want you to know that. I will be here for you through everything okay. You aren’t alone”  

*Flashback Over*

You had tried to tell him multiple times but each time he had ignored you completely. The only person who really knows again was Sweet Pea. He was your rock through all of this. He even took you to your first appointment when Fangs was a no show. Now a month and a half into this pregnancy Sweet Pea was more of a figure to the child growing inside of you than Fangs was. You were going to try to tell Fangs again, hoping that maybe this time he would listen.

“Baby before you go can I talk to you”

“About what babe”

“Uhm… us”

“Baby I don’t have a long time to talk about “us” can we talk later I need to go”

“Wait!”

“What are you up to tonight”

“Well Edgar is going to take away my pain”

“I thought you said he has been doing that”

“Well yes he has but this is more in-depth he will cure me of all the pain I have by taking the places that are infected with the pain”

“Oh… uhm, will you be alright”

“Yes, of course, Edgar takes great care of us, baby. I will be home later alright”

“Okay” He left and you called Sweet Pea instantly.

*Phone Call*

“Sweet!”

“Y/N calm down what’s going on? Is the baby alright?”

“Yes, yes the baby is fine. It’s Fangs. He said that Edgar is going to cure all his pain tonight”

“No! We need to get to him Now! Get outside! I’m picking you up!”

“Pea! Pea will he be okay!”

“We are going to save him alright. I promise”

*Phone Call Ended*

Pea pulled up in his pickup truck right next to your trailer and you hopped in quickly. You needed an explanation. You needed to know what was going on.

“Pea! What the fuck is going on”

‘Well earlier Jones had me help him get Betty out of the farm, you know how she was doing recon”

“Yeah, yeah I know”

“Well the Farm is an organ farm Y/N apparently Betty found human organs, Betty also said when people heal they sometimes disappear without a trace”

“I’m… If Fangs is being “fully” healed I’m afraid that Edgar is gonna cut into him”

“Pea I’ve almost lost him so many times. I, I can’t do it again”

“I know, we are gonna save him okay. I know the path he always takes. I assume he is going to pick up Kevin like usual meaning that If we cut through the one road we can make it and block the entrance before he gets there. I called Jones, Topaz and a few others and they are going to meet us there”

“Okay”

“I need you to stay calm okay, for you and the baby, can you do that for me Y/N”

“Here’s the plan. We meet them and we stop him basically detain him and then we bring him back to the trailer. Hopefully, we can knock some sense into him”

“Alright, we can do this” Pea squeezed your hand as slowed the car to a stop next to Toni and Jugheads bike as well as a few of the other Serpent’s vehicles. You got out slowly making your way across to everyone thanking them for coming to help. Toni stopped you midway.

“Y/N are you alright?”

“Yeah why”

“You just look… different”

“Sweet Pea told you didn’t he”

“Yeah, sorry”

“Don’t be I knew he would tell someone I’m glad it was you. Wait why did he tell you though”

“When he bought you that stuff and picked your prenatals and stuff up I went with him. He tried hiding it didn’t work too well. For a while, he said he got someone pregnant but I didn’t believe that then I finally found out since he couldn’t keep his lie straight, but if you need anything. Or to stay anywhere you can always stay at Thistle House with me, Cheryl and Nana Rose”

“Thank you but after tonight I’m hoping everything will be back in place. That Fangs will be back in place”

“Hey, we are going to get him back” You left Toni finishing your circle around before making it back to Sweet Pea.

“Sweets”

“Is it soon”

“Yeah my time he should be here in like 2 mins, but when he does I need you to stay in the truck. I can’t have you getting in the center getting hurt. You are going to try and talk him out of it I know it and he is gonna fight back and may not see you. So to be safe please stay in the truck or at least near it”

“Alright”

“No Y/N I’m being serious, please fucking listen for once. Not just for you, but for the baby too”

“Fine, Why are always pulling the damn baby card now?”

“Because it’s the only way I can get you to listen”

‘Ugh you're impossible”

“Yep” Just as you said it you heard the rustle of tires against the rocky dirt road and you saw Fangs' truck in the distance. “He’s Coming”

“Stay in the truck, please”

“Okay” You watched as Fangs pulled up all the Serpents halting his truck and dragging him out. They tried to make him go peacefully but all you kept hearing was “They are going to take away my pain, you don’t understand, let go of me” You couldn't bear to hear it so you sat in the truck with your hands over your ears trying to block all of the noise that you possibly could. You didn’t even hear Sweet Pea get in the truck until you felt his hand rub your arm.

“Stop!”

“Hey, hey it’s just me”

“I’m sorry Pea”

Are you okay?”

“His, his screams I don’t know, I just yeah I'm fine”

“You sure”

“Did we get him”

“Yeah look behind you” You looked behind to see Jones with Fangs in handcuffs and tape over his mouth. “Jones is going to help us get him in the trailer and then he is going to leave is that okay?”

“Yeah, thanks Jughead”

You tried not to look in the rearview mirror on the ride to the trailer. Every time you ended up catching a glimpse you saw anger in Fangs' eyes something that you would rarely see unless something terrible was happening to him or the people he cared about. He couldn’t have known what Edgar was going to do to them. There was no way he would want to go to him and do it if he knew, at least that is what you had hoped. The drive to the trailer seemed so much shorter than usual your breath never really settling. Sweet Pea told you to wait in your bedroom as they brought Fangs inside and got him situated. You waited for a knock on the door from Sweet Pea for what felt like forever and finally, when it came you were more nervous than ever.

You walked out. Fangs was tied to a chair with the tape removed from his mouth.

“How could you do this to me Y/N”

“I am trying to save you don’t you get that Fangs”

“I thought you cared, I thought you understood”

“I do care about you, but the farm… what they are doing isn’t right hell it’s illegal”

“No they helped me Y/N, fucking untie these ropes please” You looked to Pea as he nodded at you. He knew that he could keep Fangs down. Fangs was strong but Pea had gain on him in both weight and height, Fangs stood no chance. Sweets untied him slowly but kept his hands cuffed.

“Your hands stay cuffed Fogarty”

“Fine but can I talk to my girlfriend alone please?”

“No”

“No?!”

“I will stand in the corner and you can talk to her, but I will be here, and I will but if I have to understand”

“Yes, okay fine” Pea stood by the doorway to the hallway, at a stance daring Fangs to do anything as minuscule as move a single step forward. You saw in Pea’s eyes, the worry he had finally coming to the surface.

“Fangs…”

“Baby please”

“Do you even know what they are doing Fangs”

“Yes Edgar was going to do a treatment to help ease my pain, he has been helping me so much showing my mom getting better and so much more baby, this was going to be one of my final treatments”

“Fangs baby that treatment is bullshit”

“No, it’s not Y/N don’t say that! Edgar is healing me”

“Baby you need the truth. Your mom is not getting better. She is on bedrest, I have been taking care of her me and Sweet Pea. I started working extra shifts to buy her a new medication. You haven’t been around Fangs, you wouldn’t even begin to know what has been going on”

“But Edgar told me she was fine!”

“She’s not fine Fangs”

“But he showed me, I talked to her, I…”

“Fangs I have no idea what Edgar told or showed you but your mom is not better”

“Your lying”

“I’m not, the only person lying is Edgar, He told you he would heal your pain, but he hasn’t done shit. I don’t know what these treatments are but this final “cure” could have killed you, probably would have killed you Fangs. Edgar Evernever is nothing but a cheating con artist. He is taking people like you, people with sorrow and pain and using them or their…” Before you could even finish you were being pushed down to the floor. You had luckily landed on your butt. You looked up into Fangs' eyes the pure anger rushing to his face as Sweet Pea pulled him back and onto the chair tying his hands and legs to it once more.

“Let me go!”

You couldn’t speak, he wasn’t the Fangs that you knew. The Fangs you knew would never push you to the ground. The Fangs you knew would kill anyone who made you cry. The Fangs you knew wasn’t the Fangs in front of you. Pea helped you up and before you could even speak he began screaming into Fang’s face.

“You fucking dipshit you could have hurt her or… You know you are a fucking idiot, all she does is care about you. All she does is want to protect you to get you back the way you used to be, but then you go and do that shit. You push her to the ground like trash. You could have seriously hurt her Fogarty. What the fuck is wrong with you!”

“Yeah well, I don’t need her to pay attention to me! I was perfectly fine with what I was doing before she watched me and found out where I was going!” You were tired of the bad mouthing from him. You were tired of him being angry because of you caring.

You stepped up getting very close into his face knowing he couldn't touch you because he was tied up. “I stepped in Fangs, Yeah I fucking did and you know why? No? I stepped in and hovered because I almost lost you once. Actually no I almost lost you more than once so yeah I stepped in and I cared but you know what that isn’t even the main reason Fangs. I stepped in because I almost lost you all those times but this time I couldn’t lose you because it wouldn’t be just me Fangs. It isn’t just me who would lose you anymore” You looked down to your stomach your hand going up in protection as Fangs looked to you almost as if he had gotten slapped in the face.

“Your…” You remembered you had put the stick in your pocket before leaving the house so you grabbed it out setting it in his lap.

“Yes Fangs, I’m pregnant with your fucking child. The farm almost took you from me forever, You know what Edgar was going to do. He was going to harvest your fucking organs Fangs. Your Organs!. If we would have let you go in their tonight you may have never came out. I can’t lose you!”

“Baby don’t cry I’m right here”

“Are you Fangs, I am staying with Sweet Pea tonight I’ll tell Jughead to come over and check on you”

“Baby ple…”

“Stop Fangs, or I won’t come back at all”

You left the trailer without another word or glance at Fangs. You saw Sweet Pea come out of the trailer and make a phone call before hopping into the truck with you.

“I'm proud of you”

“Thank you pea”

“No seriously Y/N you stood your ground, now I guess we just have to wait and see what he does. But I have a question… will you forgive him easily? What if he goes back?”

“I’m hoping this child will keep him here with me… with us. I hope it at least shocked him into reality or maybe the talk of his organs did”

“yeah”

You stayed with Sweet Pea. He let you sleep in his bed that night, and he slept on the couch. You constantly told him that it was fine, and he knew the both of you were only friends but he still wanted you to have your space to yourself. The only time he ever ended up in the bed with you was when you had a terrible night terror about Fangs dying in the farm. Now you realized maybe that terror wasn’t so wrong, and you fell asleep almost peacefully knowing at least he was somewhat safe with Jughead in the trailer you shared.

You woke up the next morning to eyes looking into yours. Eyes that you recognized instantly. You jumped back fear going through you as you sat down onto the floor.

“Baby stop” he reached to you and you flinched slightly “are, are you afraid of me?” you stood tall standing your ground. You didn’t want to appear weak in front of him.

“Yeah well, the last time we talked without you tied up I was pushed to the ground, by the way, thanks for that. Luckily I landed the right way or I wouldn’t be saying thank you right now and neither would our child”  You saw the tear well into his eye as he turned around walking directly out of the room. You threw on one of the sweatshirts you left at Sweet Pea’s before walking out into the living room. Fangs sat on the couch with a basket next to him. A basket filled with baby things of every shape size and color. His head hung into his hands soft hums being heard from him. You knew he was crying. You didn’t want to feel bad, but you couldn’t deny the pain you felt for him. When you are with someone for so long you feel what they feel and this was no different. You went over sitting on the couch and pulling him into a hug.

“Baby I’m sorry about the farm. I couldn’t. I didn’t know what was going on. I barely remember how I even became a part of it. It was like I was in a trance of some sort. Like I was in control but I also wasn't. I’m sorry for what I did to you. For the pain I caused. I can’t forgive myself for that.”

“Hey, hey calm down… wait where is Pea? He wouldn't leave me.”

“He is outside, told me I had 10 mins before he was coming in”

“I know I left for a while baby I am so sorry, but we are having a baby why didn’t you tell me sooner?”

“I tried you didn’t care Fangs, you pushed me off every time going to the farm “to heal” by the way I'm glad your organs are intact”

“Baby I didn’t know… and my mom I saw her today, she… she isn’t doing good. The farm told me she was. Babe I saw her. The farm showed me her. It must've been a hallucination. I… what if she died while I was with the farm”

“Hey… calm down you're here now, you need to breathe Fangs. You didn’t mean for any of this to happen”

“What if I lost you…”

“You will never lose me”

“You shouldn’t forgive me Y/N… what if I would have hurt you”

“You may have been mad Fangs but last night you could have slapped me, punched me, all you did was push me. You would never intentionally hurt me Fangs. I know you too well. Even in that state, you wouldn’t hurt me bad. I love you Fangs. I will always love you. We will always love you” You grabbed his hand placing it gently onto your stomach.

“How long… how long have you known?”

“I’ve known for a little while… Pea took me to my first appointment. He bought me the stuff I needed. He has been really helpful Fangs”

“I’m sorry I wasn't here” you watched his face drop again but you pulled his lips to meet yours. Locking your lips together for the first time in which felt like an eternity.

“You're here now. I’m fine, You're fine. We are going to be okay, I promise. Me, you, this baby. Together. Forever Fangs”

“Forever baby. I promise you I will never leave again. I promise I will try my absolute hardest to stay away from anyone associated with the farm, but baby if they are doing this. If they did what they did to me or well almost what they did and all the other shit. The lies, the hallucinations everything... what about Kevin? What about Betty’s mom, and everyone else in there? I need to help Jughead and Betty”

“I get that Fangs but you need to be all in if you're not then I will take care of this baby myself without you. You can help them but right now… I need you, here with me. I’ve been alone… I mean I’ve had Pea helping but, I can’t handle you leaving again. Not for a long time Fogarty”

“I don’t dream of it. I will be with you and this baby until the end. I promise” He pulled you to him his arms wrapping around your middle as your head rested in his neck. His lips connecting to your forehead. “I will never break that promise Y/N. I will be here always”

“I know Fogarty, I know. I love you”

Your parents kept the southside hidden your entire life, only ever going through town on the Northside and never once crossing the line. The Northside was all you ever knew, well at least for a while until the day you went for a run around the whole town. That was the day you met your best friends.

That one day you did was the day you met some of your best friends in the entire world. You were never one to hang out with many of the Northsiders you only really ever got along with Jughead who you soon learned was actually from the Southside. From the beginning, you connected with everyone so much more than anyone you have ever met. The Southside was like a second home for you maybe even the home that meant the most.

*Flashback*

Your morning run was the one thing that could keep your mind off of everything, you decided to take a different route than you were used to. When you started running your dad would always go with you, following behind keeping an eye out. You remembered back to the time that he told you not to make a turn because it leads to Sweetwater river which was dangerous. You followed his rule every morning never making that turn even when he didn’t go with you, but something was different this time you wanted an adventure, so you took the turn.

You never saw water wherever you were, your dad must’ve lied it looked like you were in a town much like the Northside, just less prissy. You continued your run looking around at where you were taking in the new sights you were seeing. Until a guy stopped you. You were deep into what you soon learned was the Southside.

“What are you doing running around here alone”

“I uh I just took a wrong turn thought Sweetwater river was down here”

“No, Sweetwater is up around the other edge of the Northside”

“I’m sorry my dad must’ve gotten it wrong”

“What do you mean”

“He told me never to take the turn and run down here. He told me that Sweetwater was dangerous, but I wanted an adventure so I took the turn. I didn’t expect a whole other town.”

“Wait you’ve never seen this side of town”

“What do you mean this side?”

“You're from Riverdale right?”

“Yeah”

“This is the Southside”

“What’s the Southside?”

“Well you’ve probably heard your side of town being called the Northside, well this is the Southside”

“Why would my dad lie?” “Eh, Northsiders tend to hate us. They don’t understand us”

“Oh well I’m sorry for intruding”

“It’s not a problem”

“Then why did you stop me?”

“Well most people wouldn’t run around the Southside with headphones in and no protection”

“Protection?”

“Yeah… you know what nevermind”

“No, tell me I have nothing better to do”

“Alright well why don’t you come to the Whyte Wyrm with me”

“The Whyte Wyrm?”

“It’s a bar”

“You want me to go to a bar I’m not even…” “What? Old enough? Don’t worry about it no one is”

“But my parents”

“Tell them you're at a study group or you took a trip to Greendale or something”

“Alright”

“Really?” “Yeah why not”

“You trust me just like that”

“Eh you seem cool plus if you wanted to kill me you would’ve taken me down the alley right there… so unless that’s your plan I’d say I'm pretty safe”

“Touche”

“Wait…”

“You alright Princess?”

“First of all, I am not a Princess. Second I just wanna know what your name is?”

“Oh it’s Fogarty but you can call me Fangs”

“Wow and just when I thought you weren’t cringy…”

“Hey… if we play our cards right we could be endgame”

“Oh my god let’s go Fangs” You started walking away realizing that you didn’t know where you were going before he forcefully pulled you back. “Hey! What was that for!”

“Uh, it was nothing just uh… you're going the wrong way is all”

“Oh well, then you lead the way” It was the end of the afternoon at this point. You talked as you slowly made your way to the Whyte Wyrm. You eventually walked up to a building with a bunch of bikes parked outside, and guys wearing black with beards and leather jackets. You felt out of place… at least your outfit was a black sweatshirt and leggings though.

You spent a few hours at the Wyrm losing track of time during the whole thing. You talked to Fangs, and he stayed with you through it all. He even introduced you to his friends Toni and Sweet Pea. You looked at your phone hearing it ring a few times. You saw 10 missed calls from your mother and father so you stepped outside. You called them back and as soon as they picked up the yelling ensued. You apologized saying you fell asleep after watching the movie after you finished studying and lost track of the time, and you promised to be home soon. You didn’t want to leave Fangs or his friends. You got along with them so well and you hadn’t had that for a while. But you knew you had to leave, it was too good to be true. Fangs came out as you were about to start walking home.

“Hey… wait!”

“Where are you going?”

“I’m sorry Fangs, I need to go home”

“Let me walk you”

“I can’t what if I get caught”

“Say I was from the study group… at least let me walk you to the end of your street, please. I can’t let you walk home alone”

“Okay”

“Wait…”

“What Fangs I gotta go”

“Your name…  you never told me”

“It’s Y/N”

“Eh I think I’ll stick with princess”

“I’m not a princess Fogarty”

“Whatever you say, Princess”

“You are impossible… now let’s go I gotta get home”

“Alright”

*End Flashback*

It had been three weeks since that first day that you met Fangs Fogarty, and your life had changed so much. You finally felt like you had friends who actually cared about your friends you could hang out with a feel normal. The Southside became your home. You knew the people there… you held conversations walked with them places. You were as much a part of the Southside as they were a part of you. At first, it was hard you felt like you didn’t belong. Hell, you didn’t think you would be invited that night a few days later but Fangs had surprised you. You learned he watched all day from afar till your parents left just so he could invite you to go dancing and hang out at the Wyrm. Of course, you said yes. Now a few days a week you would hang out with Fangs, Toni, and Sweet Pea whether it be at the Wyrm or the quarry it didn’t matter. Every Friday the Wyrm is where you were dancing in your tight black outfit and heeled boots. You remember that first night you went dancing like it was yesterday… because that is when it all started.

*Flashback*

A knock on your bedroom window scared the shit out of you making you stop the dancing you had been doing. You looked over to see Fangs knocking. You ran over opening it and letting him climb in.

“Fangs what the fuck!”

“Well hi to you too”

“You scared the living shit out of me Fogarty!” You smacked him on the arm before crossing your arms over your chest.

“Stop, Y/N…” “Why are you here”

“What not happy to see me?”

“Really…”

“Look I just… I wanted to talk to you again I tried asking around seeing if anyone had your number cause ya know I didn’t wanna be a weirdo and come here but of course no one knew you, and Jughead didn’t have your number so I just decided to come here”

“Okay but that doesn’t explain to me why you’re here”

“Well everyone wants to hang again I just wanted to see if you wanted to come dancing at the Wyrm tonight. Friday the Wyrm turns more into a club then a bar figured maybe you'd like to join”

“I don’t dance”

“Really because I saw you dancing in here about 5 minutes ago and I’d say you can dance Princess”

“You… you saw that”

“I did which means you can dance, and you are coming with me tonight”

“Oh am I”

“Please”

“Fine Fogarty I’ll come. Wait downstairs while I get dressed”

“Okay” You went into your closet grabbing out the things you never god to wear. Being from the Northside it was constant color. You never wanted to be the weird girl so you wore as much color as you could stand, but at the Wyrm you knew you could be yourself. So you chose to throw on an old large ripped Metallica t-shirt and some maroon thigh high boots. You walked downstairs and looked for Fangs seeing the back door open in your kitchen. You walked through and saw Fangs standing looking out and watching a bird in a tree.

“Hey, you ready Fogarty?”

“Yeah I’m... “ He turned around slowly pausing in the middle of his sentence just staring at you.

“You alright”

“Yeah, yeah I’m good sorry uh I’m ready yeah follow me” “To where aren't we walking we can just go out the gate”

“Not this time” You followed Fangs out the front door of your house locking it up behind you. You watched Fangs walk down to a bike.

“Your kidding”

“Nope”

“Great well I’m gonna die tonight”

“Princess you aren't gonna die”

“Fangs! Again with the Princess shit”

“What! You can’t yell at me when you literally look like a fucking princess tonight”

“Get on the fucking bike Fogarty… now, before I change my mind alright”  He quickly mounted the bike and you followed swiftly behind. He turned the bike on the engine revving.

“Hold on tight Y/N” You did as you were told no complaints coming from you. You realized how nice it was holding onto Fangs, how much you enjoyed it

*End Flashback*

Your phone buzzed as you finished getting dressed for the Wyrm.

I’m here get your ass out here. I don’t got time to wait, Princess, let’s go we’re already late

You walked outside to see Fangs sitting on his bike waiting for you.

“You’re late not me Fangs”

“Okay I was just trying to get you out of the house faster, also all this doesn’t get done very quickly” he motioned to himself.

“You are so cringy, Fogarty”

“You know it…. Now get your ass on this bike”

“I’m coming, calm your ass down” You slowly made your way to the Wyrm the night already started considering you guys were a few hours later than usual. You walked in the music already blaring and Toni handing a drink to you. After a few drinks and talking with everyone you started feeling a buzz. You wanted to dance so you went to the floor when Fangs went to the bathroom. The music taking over your head as you danced. Fangs slowly joined you grabbing you from around the back. You often danced together but you were both slightly tipsy on a night you wouldn’t usually drink. You both got closer and closer as each song came. You hadn’t realized your foreheads were pressed together until you opened your eyes and stared straight back into Fangs’. The feelings hit hard. You didn’t wanna be without him after that first night. You liked Fangs, and you liked him more every second you were with him. You tried for weeks to push them away but nothing was working. You liked him and the off chance of him not liking you back killed you. You knew he cared about you as a friend, but you knew that was most likely the only way he did. So you ripped away from him running out of the Wyrm for air. You had to get home.

You didn’t care that he was the one to always walk you, all you cared about was getting away from the Wyrm and the feelings that crowded your mind and your heart. You started your walk home and soon heard steps and screams from behind you.

“I thought we were over you just leaving after that first night”

“I just… I had to go. I need to get home”

“Again with this… So you were just gonna leave, not say goodbye”

“I’m sorry Fangs. I didn’t wanna say goodbye”

“You didn’t have to you know I like walking you home”

“I can’t Fangs I’m sorry to get your bike or go back to the party I am going home I don’t need you to walk me”

“What is going on with you. I am not leaving”

“Why can’t you just let me fucking walk home on my own I am not a fucking damsel in distress, that is gonna get captured and need saving or some shit!”

“ I fucking know that Y/N. But I care about you too much to just let you leave. I fucking love you and if I wasn’t there and something happened to you that I could’ve prevented I couldn’t live with myself. That is why I walk you home. I walk you home cause I fucking care okay!”

“Wait… You said…”

“That I care, yeah cause I do”

“No, you said you loved me”

“I… I, uh I’m sorry just call me when you get home” He started walking away but you had to know if it was true.

“Fogarty wait”

“Is it… are you… do you… I mean, do you love me… nevermind there's no way” He turned around and ran towards you his hands cupping your face and before you realized his lips were connected with your own the heat running through his hands and through your body. The warmth you felt every time he would hold your hand, or when you wrap your arms around his body while on the bike. Everything with him felt warm… this was your warmth, he was your warmth. He pulled away slowly his forehead laying flat against your own.

“Do you believe me now?”

“Eh kind of” He kissed you again his lips passionately almost harshly pressing against your own.

“Can I walk you home now?”

“Of course” You walked to your house hand in hand. It felt right with him. Everything was always right with him and you knew that. Not before long you are stood in front of your front gate. He looked at you and you looked up into his eyes his hand coming and resting on your cheek before he pulled you in while landing a chaste kiss to your lips.

“So maybe we really are endgame Fogarty”

“We definitely are Princess and you know it”

So yeah you were not always the most graceful person but recently you had been doing pretty good. You, Pea and Fangs were walking along southside on your way to Pops when you fell landing almost flat on your face but luckily your out your hand out in time. You didn’t scrape your face but you did hear a loud pop.

“Y/N what the fuck are you okay. Oh my god baby tell me your okay, does something hurt oh my god”

“Calm down Fogarty”

“Babe what the hell did you trip over” as he began helping you stand. Nothing really hurt though so you figured you’d be fine. But that wasn’t the case at all. It didn’t hurt ttoobad when you stood up but you definitely knew something was off.

“I just tripped over this stupid fucking hole. Stupid fucking dirt”

“Y/N the dirt can’t hear you”

“Shut the fuck up Pea I know that!”

“Can you put pressure on it?” “Not really”

“Just help me hop till we get to Pop’s or at least to your trailer Pea, can you drive me to the hospital then”

“It’s probably just a sprain, we’ll just wrap it and you'll be good in no time baby” Pea looked down to see your whole foot swelling.

“I don’t think so Fogarty” You looked down as Fangs did to see your foot about two times the size it had been.

“Uh oh”

“Yeah we need to get to the hospital let’s go” You grabbed onto Fang’s shoulder and Pea’s as well and began to hop as they walked but after a minute or two Pea dead stopped almost making you fall.

“What the hell!”

“Your too slow”

“Pea her foot is probably broken leave her alone”

“No, she is too goddamn slow”

“Pea I’m gonna break your foot and see how you like it”

“Okay, you know what fine” Fangs went to grab you under your legs.

“Fangs what are you doin”

“I’m gonna carry you”

“Babe no, I’m not letting you carry me, you’ll hurt yourself it’s a long walk”

“C' mon, I lift shit all the time It’s fine”

“No Fangs”

“Baby…”

“No Fangs”

“Y/N…”

“Fangs”

“Oh my god either you pick her the fuck up or I’m carrying her myself”

“Neither of you are I can hop!” Pea went to pick you up but Fangs pushed him out of the way before he could.

“Don’t you dare pick her up! She is my girlfriend”

“Damn possessive are we”

“Yeah cause your hand would be resting on her ass!”

“I’m not complaining”

“Sweet Pea!”

“What you got a nice ass”

“OKay let’s go” Fangs scooped you up.

“Fangs let me down!”

“Nope”

You eventually made it to Pea’s and then to the hospital only to be told that you had fractured your fibula. But luckily it didn’t require surgery. But honestly, you still were not happy because you were required to use crutches. And of course they did not have underam crutches, no they had the ones that go below your forearms and though you may be strong as fuck they are the hardest damn things to use in the world. You got into Pea’s truck after finally heading to Pops. You got out grabbing your crutches and began walking in the door.

“Oh my god your still so fucking slow” And then he grabbed you lifting you up and walking you into Pop’s, Fangs yelling behind him to put you down.

“Thanks for the lift, but next time don’t pick me up Pea or your gonna have a fractured pelvic bone”  

“Damn Y/N”

“That's my girl”

Healing was going quite well. The only problem was the crutches made you extremely slow, basically made every task near impossible to finish in a reasonable amount of time. Literally grabbing cereal took about 30 mins just because of walking to the kitchen and to the couch. There was even one time you were trying to get into the bath but doing that on crutches and having a bathtub that was pretty high was very difficult.

“Ugh!!” Fangs busted into the door thinking you screamed.

“What’s wrong are you okay!”

“I almost fell trying to get in the fucking bath! These stupid fucking crutches make everything so hard, I almost tripped over the fucking bathmat”

‘Let me help you” That is how it had been, Fangs helping you do everything, and though you appreciated it it began to get kind of annoying. Like you loved the help but you were also so fucking independent you aboslutely hated it.

So the next day when the same issue of you trying to walk out of the trailer by yourself with the crutches and you fell Fangs running up and trying to help you snapped at him.

“Baby let me help you up oh my god, did you hurt anything else”

“Fangs just go away I can do it!”

“But I can help baby it isn’t a problem”

“No, leave me alone Fogarty. I don’t need your help”

“Baby…”

“I’m serious go to Pea’s or something”

“Fine, but I’m helping you up first”

“Ugh, your impossible!” He helped you back into the house but then left like you asked. But as you were sitting on the couch you began to feel really bad. You didn’t mean to snap at him, but having to have someone help you with even the little tasks got on your nerves so much, you knew it wasn’t right though so you were calling him instantly telling him to come back home.

He walked in and right when he did you began apologizing profusely feeling so bad for what you had said and done.

“Baby shhh It’s fine I get it, remember when I got and I had to have help even reaching a dish or the ice-cream in the freezer. I got so annoyed at everyone. I even yelled at you, something I vowed to never do. So I get it baby don’t worry about it too much okay”

“Okay, I’m still sorry though”

“It’s okay baby but guess what”

“What?”

“I have a surprise for you, close your eyes”

“Okay…” You closed your eyes and heard him walk out of the trailer, before you heard the door slam again and something bang against the wall followed by an “oof” you were highly confused. “Babe, you okay?”

“Don’t open your eyes!”

“I’m not!” “Okay wait you can open them now”

“You sure”

“Yeah, open them, open them” YOu saw this thing that looked like a walker but like half a seat”

“What is that”

“Surprise babe, I got you a scooter!”

“For what”

“So basically your knee goes here and you like ya know scooter along” He demonstrated it as well and you began laughing instantly. The thought that he had put in even when you yelled at him made you laugh profusely and also care so much deeper for him.

“Fangs…”

“Do you not like the color, you know I could paint it”

“No the color is fine I just… I love you so much. You did this even when I yelled at you.”

“Of course I did, your just frustrated and I get that”

“Thank You babe”

“No problem Y/N, I love you I always just want you to be happy and with those crutches, you were not a happy camper”

“Oh my god I’m like an old woman and I’m not even 30!”

“Hey I’ll still love you when your old”

“How old”

“As old as possible because I wanna be with you forever”

“Your so cheesy”

“Yeah but you love me for it”

“Damn right”

“Now give me that scooter cause I want to scooter to the bed and I want you to follow me”
