Through The Window

Chapter One

Ten minutes later, he was pulling up to the Cooper’s house. He looked at the house noting the darkness of the house wondering if everyone was asleep. He glanced behind him at Mrs. Cooper’s station wagon so that meant they were home. He climbed off his bike and walked up the stairs to the door. The door glared at him and something told him that he was not getting in that way. He did a quick look around to make sure there were no neighborhood watch people walking around this late at night or a cop car because he didn’t really feel like explaining what he was doing here. Jughead crouched down as he tried to quietly walk around the house to see her window. He sighed when he saw a tiny light coming from it and noticed that there was already a ladder up against the wall. He thanked whoever put it there while he did another quick look around before climbing up the ladder to the window. When he finally reached the window after slipping a few times from the sticky dew on the steps and he could see Betty sitting on her bed facing the wall appearing to be in deep thought. Jughead gentle rapped his knuckles against the glass. She jumped up off her whipping around to face her window with wide eyes. He watched her relax when she realized who he was and a smile came to her face.

Betty hurried over to the window unlocking the latches pushing the window up. While he climbed inside, Betty went over to her door being very careful to shut it softly so she wouldn’t alert her mother of her visitor. Once the door was shut, she turned around to see Jughead standing in the middle of her room with his arms opened wide. Betty felt a magnetic pull and she was rushing into those waiting arms wrapping her own around his torso feeling completely warm for the first time in weeks. She closed her eyes melting into him while laying her head on to his chest.

Anne joins Gilbert in his orchard to help with harvest, but soon realizes that it is hard to be around him given her realization of her love for him and his imminent engagement to someone else. Things quickly reach a T as she tries to leave, and some honest confessions ensue. Gilbert gives Anne his mother's ring to wear as a charm on her bracelet until she is ready to take the next step.

Basically the product of my complete marriage to the idea of a love confession in the orchard. Omg just read this and imagine it with me, ugh *chef's kiss*

Title is from the song "Say It To Me Now" from Once the musical. Whenever I hear the song, I just picture Gilbert and the feelings he has for Anne! Can't recommend enough!
