Chapter 17

"What do we do? He's by himself and what he's only like 10!" Alice exclaimed throwing her habds around in the air. "We wait" Joaquin shrugged. "Wait? We wait! Joaquin DeSantos your brother could be in danger and you don't even care!" Cheryl growled.

"He'll come back. Trust me." Joaquin replied looking into the forest. "Last time I trusted you my twin was brutally murdered. So I think I'll pass" Cheryl replied crossing her arms.

"Guys this isn't helping. We need to find Ricardo before he gets hurt or he hurts someone." Sweet Pea pointed out.

"Just let him do it" Joaquin muttered. "What? Let your 10 year old brother murder people over a game? Are you more-" FP tugged harshly at Sweet Pea's ear. "Don't kid" he growled.

"Who can talk him out of this?" Jughead asked "who can talk Ricky out of not hurting anyone?" Jughead looked at his friends "someone? Anyone? We aren't going to let this kid hurt someone because of a make believe game." Jughead demanded.

"I'll do it" Jughead turned to Betty. "What?" Betty shrugged her shoulders "I think I can help him" she replied tugging her white sweater closer. "Are you sure about this Betty? I don't want you getting hurt. Should I have back up-" Betty put her finger to Jughead's mouth "I'll be okay Jug" she replied a small smile on her face.

"You heard her boy. Let her go deal with the boy." Gladys replied looking up from her nails. "Betty?" Jughead called grabbing her wrist. Betty turned around "yes Jughead?" She asked her head tilting slightly. "Be safe okay, I love you" Jughead responded. "Don't worry Jug, I'll be safe, I love you" she gave him a quick kiss before she gave a small smile to her friends. "Bye everyone." Her eyes gleaming in the sunlight before she turned on her heel and walked through the forest on a mission to find Ricky.
