Kissing danger on the mouth
Disclaimer i do not own anything related to beetlejuice which is a result of the genius mind that is Mr Tim Burton (I),however i am a fan so i will try and honour his work and create a story of a warped proportion to make Burton proud.
Further info kissing danger on the mouth is a product of a story i am writing i just felt like giving it the screamtastic beetlejuice edge.
Without further adue i hope you enjoy .
Anniversary:
As the school bell rang out to ensure my freedom, a small smile crept across my face for i knew what was in store an evening of fun and spooktaculiar entertainment, the new edition of carpal tunnel traumas where on the neitherworld TV station scream 1, lost in my thoughts i hadn't even noticed that i was nearly at the main entrance of the school, i looked outside to see people running holding their coats over their heads, whilst others walked patiently with umbrellas. I pushed open the door breathing in the fresh smell, i loved it when it rained the air always had a distinct smell of pine trees, i continued walking down the path, when i heard my name being screamed "Lydia" i searched round to see who the voice belonged to " Lydia sweetie over here" i looked to the left to see Delia in her brand new baby blue convertible, she smiled at me whilst waving rapidly in my direction, i decided to wave back " hello mother, what are you doing here?" she continued smiling at me showing her bright white gleaming teeth "well i saw it was raining and well what kind of parent would i be to let you get soaking wet" then in a hushed tone she added " also i need your help on a gift for your father" of course how could i forget it was the anniversary, which meant I'd have to hear the story of how they met for the millionth time " cutting it a bit short aren't we" i replied raising an eyebrow, her usual perkiness was replaced with a slight impatience " help me out and I'll buy you that red and black nightmare before Christmas shirt" in the back of my mind i couldn't help and laugh about this "why didn't you say" i opened the back door and sat in my usual seat, looking out the window i watched as the rain drops delicately danced across the pane of glass.
15 minutes later at the shopping mall
"Lydia do you think your farther would like this" she held up a book titled realising your inner peace " i think he has enough of those books" she sighed "true, my god your farther is so hard to buy for" i laughed at this notion, he was hard , obviously she didn't know how difficult it was to find something artsy enough for her " why don't you get him some new golf clubs?" she smiled at this " of course why didn't i think of that" i laughed again.
Finally after we finished shopping for my father and buying my new screamtastic top, we stopped off at the food court "do you want a pretzel? That way you won't spoil your dinner" i smirked " yeah that would be cool" she paid the vender the money then looked over at me starry eyed " i met your father by a pretzel wagon, you were still in a push chair" oh no flash back
*flash back of central park*
I was just beginning in the art world, my first exhibit was due to show not more than 3 hours away, i was about to get my favourite coffee mocha and a sweet pretzel when suddenly something hit my head, it was a small pink rattle, as i bent down to pick it up my hand was touched by a bigger softer hand , i looked up to see who the hand belonged to, there was a man with beautiful blonde hair and dark eyes, smiled at me nervously " errrgh thanks" i smiled back at him " it was like no problem" he turned over to the little girl in the pushchair "pumpkin, that was a bad thing you done" i looked over his shoulder at the infant "omg she is like the cutest baby I've ever seen" he giggled at this " you think she's cute now wait till she's well behaved" i let out a small laugh " oh how rude of me, my names Delia carthy"
" I'm Charles deetz, and she's Lydia my daughter" i smiled doing a small wave in your direction " your wife is so lucky to have a guy like you" suddenly a frown came over his face " my wife's dead" i now too sported a frown " oh I'm so sorry" he suddenly switched back to a slight smile, sadness still apparent in his eyes " it's okay you weren't to know" i nervously smiled back "how about we get a mocha, one day I'd like to get to know you" he smiled back at me " that would be nice" i picked up a napkin and got a pen outta my hair, starting to scrawl out my number, i then handed it to him " call any time, but now I've so gotta dash" he grinned at me "okay, I'll see you around"
*flashback ends*
She beamed at me "see Lydia you were our little cupid" i put on a fake smile "great" i replied sarcastically.
Suddenly she glanced down at her watch " oh my we better be getting back, your fathers probably worried sick" we made our way towards the car with all our shopping bags in hand.
Back at home
My dad was sitting on the porch nervously rocking back and forth, he looked up as we pulled up into the driveway he ran towards the car like he hadn't seen us in years, hugging Delia in a death grip " i thought you two were dead, you said you'd be gone an hour tops" Delia smiled at him "we were only gone an hour and a half Charles, stop being such a worry wart" she then kissed him on the lips " excuse me can you leave the old people make out for when I'm not here" my father looked sheepishly over at me "sorry pumpkin" , i smiled back at him then made my way towards the house, "I'm going to get changed and chill out in my room if you need me" they just smiled and nodded at me.
I sat down on my bed dropping my bed and picking up a picture of my best friend, just smiling at it, this was the only picture I'd ever taken where he looked half decent, not trying to pull any faces or adding anything in the picture to distract us both. "miss me that much babes?" i looked over at my mirror " so much, i couldn't bear another moment without you, i was ready to take my laugh breathe" I giggled after saying this, he smirked " so you ready for the most horrific night of your life?" he said arching his eyebrow, i just nodded my response i was slightly tired after being dragged round peaceful pines shopping mall
