A afterlife with her
you could say that the poltergeist named Beetlejuice was one lucky 'born' ghost. For soon one year ago, he (problaby the most least wanted of all Neitherworldian) got away with broke one of the most high punishment laws there are been writen in the land of the dead. For it was forbidden to fall in love with a 'Breather', but by help from his new friends, he got away and even got a new changes to be with the one he loved. His true love was his first true friend Lydia. She was only a kid when he first saw her, but she did grow on him and she stole his heart and make it beat again.
So of course he thought himself, a really lucky dead guy.
Only some weeks later after his own stupid little brother got hitch with the female knight Ella, Beetlejuice took once again a peek into Lydia's small apartment and found her reading.
"hey Lyds!" he called, she didn't look up so he added "what are you doing?"
"making myself ready for the exam" she mumbled and looked from the book and over to that paper she has beside her where she write some(not important in the ghost's head) things down she should remember.
"why not just make a Ella?" he ask and lean up against the mirror frame
"you mean getting marriage?"
"of course not!" he busted out but realize that she maybe still have some dreams he could ruin, so he quickly changes more or less the subject "I mean, just throw all that work away and take with me over to Neitherworld-"
"that is not what Ella did" she just smiled to him, apparently she didn't take it so hard with his outburst that he thought "sorry Beej, I can't"
"oh come on babes, why not?"
"I do this for be more proud of myself and I will surely regret it if I skip the exam"
"uh oh. What do you want to make to that oh so great exam?" he grumble out she just burn him off. She only rolled her eyes at him and he added more mischievous "you could draw a fish in a bottle?(he turn into a fish with funny teeth) Paint everything wrong?(he turn rainbow colored)" he raise a eyebrow when she still ignored him. BJ crossed his arms and said first calm "or... make a SCREAM!" and the last was yelled so high that Lydia jumped in chock, she got so surprise that she by accident knocked all her work around and broke the pencil she has in her hand.
"Beetlejuice!" she shouted at him and he could not stop snicker over her reaction
"hehe out of ideas yet?"
"are you?" she gave back with a quick smirk before she sighed and began to collect her papers again "I will never be ready to the exam with you around"
"uhhh a little feisty today? I like that with a women"
"don't flirt with me Beetlejuice"
"why not? Don't like when I talk dirty on the other side of the mirror?" he grinned again leaning up at the mirror frame. His grin grew bigger when he saw she began to blush "I am not even started up yet-"
"Beetlejuice!... ups" she shouted again at him and he felt it was the third time she said and with a "HA!" he was out. Lydia wide her eyes when he suddenly grab her and took her up in her arms while all her papers (again) fly around in her room "stop doing that" she mumbled at him with crossed arms in his arms
"what of it?" he ask teasing and kissed her forehead, she tried to avoid it with poorly effect
"everything" she said short and pushed herself out of his embrace. BJ looked for a short second stupid after her when she walk over to(for the second time) collect her papers. He shrugged casual and said;
"naaah don't wanna" he grab her from behind so she make a surprise squeal "for I knooow you like it"
"goofball" she giggled at him and she (finally) gave him a kiss on his mouth.

knock-knock
Beetlejuice look surprising at the door on top of a mountain of mess in the Road house, Lydia has send him back to the Neitherworld and (more force) make him promise not to come to her school while she have exam. He took a slide down of his mess and wondered out loud;
"who will came knocking on my front door now?" he open the door and he was really close to scream and ran under his couch to hide when he saw when it is "mom. Pa" he said with a force smile
"Junior!" they both said happy on the same time like it have been years since they last saw to each other... even there was only go few weeks since they saw each other when Donny got marriage.
Why could I not be born into a more messy family or maybe a family there was not so damn cheerful?! He thought while he let them in, still with the forced smile That will make my century better.
"what are you two doing here? Who told you I was here?" he ask them while they walk in(Nat gave him a pad on the shoulder, there almost make him go through the floor) and Bea immaterially look around in the room.
"oh, we just come by and see how you was doing" she took a look at his mountain of mess "and I can see you still don't clean your room"
"agh well, I can't keep it clean when I am not here, well?" he said to avoid the question
"where are you when, son?" his father ask him
"just a little there my feet take me... just so long they are not sour feet for they nag more than people I know" he said leaning up against his high father and the last part was said sarcastic to his parents there like always didn't know he was talking about them... maybe that was good enough. He notice that him mother began to clean up "mom, just leave my things alone"
"you can't be have a house looking like this around that nice and clean girl" Bea said motherly back, Beetlejuice role with his eyes in annoyance. Unfortunately for him... Bea saw it "don't give me that Junior, for you know I am right"
"yes mother..." Beetlejuice said slow and added more strong "but come on! This is my house and I decide how it shall look like"
"no excuses Junior" his mother quickly said. Suddenly she took a grip in Beetlejuice striped jacked and jerked him down to her eye height "hm, I have hoped that dear girl will make you a little more clean" she took a magnifying glass up from one of hers pocket and look closer on his face "still dirty behind you ears... as always"
"moom!" Beetlejuice whined in hope she will leave him a little alone, but no-
"and have you find yourself a job yet?" his father ask
"not yet...ever" he said the last very low to himself.
"you can expect she make all the work"
"and all the cleaning?"
"well she likes me just fine" he crossed his arms and he just need them to get of his back and there was only one way to do that. He took a look on his three(one to Outworld time, second to Neitherworld time and the third was broken) wrist-watch "oh will you look at what the time is?" he said high and walk over to the door and open it "you too have to go now, for you know I have places to be, things to do and I even think Lyds is calling for me" his parents luckily walk over to the door with him for they really believed he should something important
"bye" he waved with his hand when they wave goodbye back to him, he quickly close the door and sighed really deep "parents visiting... y'know I hate 'em" he looked around in his room and saw something there could remind of the glue he tried to find. Beetlejuice grinned, took it and decided to visit the Monster across the street or maybe the fruit grocer... just for old pranks safe.

After have gotten(almost) away with his newest pranks, he meant that Lydia must be home now from the exams and pop in to see he caught her in a 'good' time. Maybe she will brush her hair in front of the mirror or he could make the whole kitchen dance just for teasing her. But he didn't find her near her little kitchen or close to the mirror, he find her sitting in the couch with some paper. He was close to call on her, but when she gave a deep sigh from her, his curiosity was bigger than his impish side.
"Lydia, what's wrong?" he ask and took both his hands up to the mirror. She sighed even deeper this time there make him feel a little uncomfortable "stop sighing like that, you make me think you are mourning over someones dead... as you can see you don't have to do that" a little smile appeared on her lips, at least she was not so down so he could not make her smile a little. He too smiled a little and juice a brain up "what about calling me out and throw out what's on your mind?"
"Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice" he jumped out of the mirror and float over to her there hang even more "it is the exam..." Lydia looked really down so he got the feeling she either was kicked out... or just didn't get good grades
"told ya you shouldn't take it and just take with me to the Neitherworld" he mumbled, trying to comfort her "you don't need it anyway-what?" Beetlejuice frowned big when she suddenly began to laugh
"gotcha" Lydia giggled and winked to him "I was one of the best in class" BJ blinked flabbergasted at her, not sure what just happen until it finally sink inside his thick skull
"hey waaiit a minute?" he lean in to her there giggled like a little girl there knew she was caught. He was so close to her that their noses almost touch each other "you con the conman?" Lydia nodded, still giggling "why you- come here" Beetlejuice pinned her down and began to tickle her stomach so she laugh uncontrollably;
"hahahaa Beetlejuice stop hahahahaha"
"no way babes!"
"hahahaha Beetlejuice haha-Bee-haha-tlejuice"
"oh shi-" was the only thing he manages to say before he was right back in the Road house. He glared at the mirror where he saw Lydia still laying on the floor giggling triumph. The ghost sighed deep before he grumbled "yeah yeah congrats for the trouble. Now you can come to me if you want to talk about it babes!"
–
Lydia didn't give Beetlejuice the sweet victory to come to him the same day she has gotten her very good grades. She only come to him the next day where she(to her utterly surprise) saw a long line of old kinds of Neitherworldians.
"what's going on here?" she mumbled for herself and walk past the line and saw a sign where she read; "B.J's surprising boxes? A new scam more like it" Lydia ran up to the end of the line where she found Beetlejuice just got a bag of money for a box there remind very much of a Jack-in-the-box.
"here you go and come back any time soon" the poltergeist Beetlejuice gave a new box to a very hairy family. He grinned big while he looked at the bunch of money she had "ohh the green-"
"Beetlejuice?" she walk over to him
"Lyds! Wanna box?" BJ was happy to see her and try to give her one of those boxes he sold. She looked suspicious at it
"what's in them?"
"just some juice" he shrugged and sold it to another costumer "you open it and what you most want pop out. Of course it's only once it works, HA"
"of course" Lydia rolled with her eyes, she knew he will pull something of like that... it was his nature. She still warned him "just don't do it to people there can bite you back"
"yeah yeah, wanna bring me some more boxes inside the Road house?"
"sure" she sighed and walk inside the Road house where she found more of those boxes, she took so many she could bear outside again and gave them to him "here you go"
"great!" he grinned and snapped few times with his fingers before he winked to her "wanna be my assistants?"
"you do it nicely by yourself and I have told you that your scam is your own trouble" Lydia said with a teasing wink back and waved bye to him while she walk a little away "call me when you need to be saved"
"I am not-oh forget it" he first protest, but when a new customer came he grumbled the last there make Lydia smile a little for herself. She walk over to stand a little for herself and wishes she took her camera with her so she could take some picture while he did what he was best at.
"hey there" she looked surprise at a (possibly) same age ghoul as her. He was high and look kinda dashing "you are Lydia, right?" he ask with a sweet smile
"that's right, do I know you?" she ask friendly
"probably not" he still smiled and put a hand up to his golden hair in a really movie stile way "wanna hang out and maybe take out-"
"thanks but I think it is best I stay near here" she said quick, he was sweet but really not her type... beside, she already have her own ghost.
"because of him?" the young ghoul ask and cast his head(still in a dashing way) towards Beetlejuice there looked like he was in a small argument with a big costumer.
"he is my best friend" she smiled still friendly and added by a new look at him "and I know him too good to let him do this alone"
"should it be the another way around?" he ask "him saving you?" she raise a eyebrow at the 'nice' ghoul(he didn't notice) and he looked almost shamefully at BJ "even I don't think he like anything-"
"like what?"
"you know? Like like" she couldn't hold a little amusing laugh back, this ghoul maybe look at her age, but she has a feeling he was younger than her by the way he said things. It was very obvious now that he have very little experience with the other gender, he lean closer to her with the most charming smile and ask "but since there is no law anymore... what do you think about me?"
"oh... ehm I think you are-" Lydia tried to avoid the question, she really didn't know she should laugh or cry of this 'kid's' attempt to make out with her. But her avoiding explanation was fast interrupted;
"HEY!" Beetlejuice came over to them and looked really angry at the ghoul. Lydia suddenly found herself behind Beetlejuice there glared evil at the younger ghoul "what the hell are you think you doing?!"
"I'm just talking to Lydia" the ghoul said clam and looked disgusted at Beetlejuice dirty clothes and teeth.
"where does he know you name from?" he looked fast at Lydia, but before she could answer him, he again yelled at the ghoul "have you been stalking her you little brat?!"
"Beetlejuice!" Lydia warned him to be more hostile, she knew he have a small anger issue, especially when it was around other boys. The dashing ghoul began also be hostile and it began to look more like a cock-fight/who-is-the-best-ghost than a argument.
"hey, she is not your property, just because she think you are her best friend!" both Beetlejuice and Lydia narrow their eyes at him... but none of the men notice her doing it, since she was behind BJ "she just too gullible to see you are using her!"
"what?!" Lydia snap when she heard that "I am not blind to see what he is-"
"stay out of this!" Beetlejuice snap at her
"stop yelling at me!" she shouted back at him and tried to stay calm "we was just talking"
"yeah right" BJ snorted sarcastic, it make her see red
"what does that mean?!"
"he just have to walk right over to you because you just stood behind me-"
"you are jealous"
"I AM NOT!"
"yes you are!" Lydia shouted. They both stood almost nose against nose. All around them either looked curious at them or decided to go before they was invoked "you are one big jealousy overprotective airhead!"
"when you are just a women there look way too nice for her own good!" he yelled back and crossed his arms in a really immature way. This make her snort;
"that is not even a bad thing to say!"
"it is now!"
"you-"
"stop yelling at her Beetle-breath!" suddenly the ghoul yelled obvious a the poltergeist "or I will-"
"MIND YOU OWN BUSINESS!" both Beetlejuice and Lydia yelled at the same time at the chocked ghoul. Lydia continued;
"I don't need anyone's help!" both male looked surprised at her. She first pointed at Beetlejuice "not you and absolutely not yours!" last she pointed at the younger ghoul there huffed offended and walk mad away.
She huffed too "ugh men!" and still in a foul mood she walk mad inside the Road house and smack the door hard after her. She sat down in Beetlejuice dirty couch and surely sat there in a good while before she heard Beetlejuice came over to her. She looked mad at him "what?!"
"you are angry" he said casual with his hands in his pockets, she found it really annoying right now
"of course I am angry"
"but not at me for once"
"when while I am at it" Lydia rise up and jerk him down by his tie so he looked right into her eyes "no more of your oh so great scams today; alright B.J?"
"but-" he tried to protest but when she narrow her eyes at him, he shrunk a little in size and said quickly "alright alright, you are not to argue with when you are this mad" she let go of him and was close to sit down again, she actual didn't have a reason to be mad anymore, but apparently Beetlejuice have maybe brushed a little too much off her.
"hey I know a cure" she heard him say and before she could even blink with her eyes, he have pushed her down on the couch and looked very sly at her. She knew exactly what he was up to.
"don't you dare, I am still angry at you!" she warned him, but he only grinned bigger "Beetlejuic-" but before she could say more he kissed her so good that she forgot how to breath for a second or two. He let go of her lips and said in a serious tone;
"shut up babes and just cool off" she wide her eyes when her skin turn blue and he just grinned sheepish of it.
"bad choice of words" she smiled to Beetlejuice while he waved lazy with his hand so her blue skin color disappeared. She mumbled apologizing "sorry... I shouldn't snap at you like that"
"you're right, you shouldn't" she glare 'you-don't-make-it-better-right-now' look and he said again sheepish "hehe let other think what they want about us" she nodded in a silent agreement with him and BJ kissed her almost tenderly on the forehead "this is our secret" but did add immature "and I am not jealous, I just don't like other guys trying to take you away from me"
"let them try" she giggle, he snorted short back and moved her a little to sit beside her. They sat beside each other is a good while without saying a thing to each other "Beej?" she ask
"hm?" he apparently getting bored of the silent and looked hungry after a stray beetle
"happy anniversary" he forgot the beetle when she said that and look utterly confused at her, when he looked grumpy at her for a strange reason
"ohh no babes, today it not the day we first met, I am sure of that" Lydia blinked once before she began to laugh over this fact "what?" he ask with a raise eyebrow at her
"glad you remember that" she giggled done before she told "no, today is a year ago we two can be together without a law get in our way"
"you mean today is the day where I was close to lose everything for a year ago?" Beetlejuice ask, she nodded and he huffed "I don't wanna hold a party for that reminder. I'm still flicker just to think about it" BJ began to flicker like a broken light bulb.
"I can see that" she rolled her eyes at her and lay her head down on his lap "can't believe there has already go a year" he only mumbled some incorrect back and looked empty out in the room "Beetlejuice?"
"yes?"
"I love you"
"sure, I love ya too" he smiled to her there make her smile loving back
