This is based on both cartoon and the movie of Beetlejuice. Ari is my character :D So sorry it took so long to update my excuse is that my little cousin's were visiting for the Whole two week break…x3 Enjoy!

Chapter 3

Lydia slowly took him in. She looked at him from his toes to his highest standing up hair. He had taken a shower to wash away the entire mold he had grown over the years.

His hair was a luscious light blond almost platinum like. His eyes, still twinkling from Lydia remembering him, were a misty green that fogged up Lydia's mind. His Cheshire grin had always made Lydia turn into marshmallows and she noticed he had lost a lot of weight.

"Beej," Lydia said almost whispering it lovingly. "YOU STAY THE FUCK AWAY FROM HER!" Delia yelled on top of her lungs while pushing Lydia behind her and using her own body as a shield. "Like hell I will." Beetlejuice said smirking in Delia face. Delia got a crazy look in her eyes and started to reach for Beetlejuice's neck "Lydia! RUN NOW!" Delia ordered pushing Lydia out of her own room. Lydia suddenly woke up from her trance and realized what was happening.

"NO! STOP IT DELIA!" Lydia said rushing back into her room. She came too late. Beetlejuice already had lifted Delia in mid air with the snap of his fingers. "Beej! Let her go." Lydia said through her teeth. She gracefully, with anger presenting itself in her every step, puts one foot in front of the other slowly.

Soon she was face to face with Beetlejuice. "Bj, I said let Delia go." Lydia said harshly. Beetlejuice analyzed Lydia for awhile. "Whatever you say Babes." Beetlejuice casually said with a hint of sarcasm in his voice.

Beetlejuice snapped his fingers and Delia was dropped faced down on Lydia's floor. "Lydia..stay away…from him." Delia gasped softly. "DELIA! What happened to you?" Barbara asked quickly entering the room and fell down to her knees to turn Delia on her back. She looked around and saw Lydia and that thing staring at each other with daggers and hints of sadness in their eyes as if they were talking non-verbally.

"Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice!" Barbara shouted. "Aw bloody hell." Beetlejuice cursed then disappeared. Lydia turned around with tears pouring down her cheeks. Her vision was getting blurred, but she could still see Barbara clearly. "Barbara, why did you do it?" Lydia asked almost choking on the question.

"You looked like you were about to kill him." "We were talking, Barbara. Telepathically." Mumbled Lydia "Sweetie, I'm sorry." "You should take Delia in her room she seems exhausted." Barbara glanced down at Delia who had fallen asleep. "I think I should too." Barbara said getting up from her knees and grabbed Delia gently, but strongly by her wrists and started to drag her away.

She stopped suddenly halfway through the doorway and glanced at Lydia. "Lydia, if you need to talk. I'm always around. Also,… It's your decision to call him back. I hate him with my guts for what he tried to do, but for you..I, well, will deal with him." Barbara said softly. "Thanks Mom." Lydia said.

Barbara stared at Lydia with confusion and awe in her eyes for a moment and then continued dragging Delia away. Lydia softly closed the door to her room and then went to sit on her bed. She finally remembered Beetlejuice, but only to be told that he is going to be gone soon.

"Beetlejuice." Lydia whispered. She wiped away the tears from her cheeks "Beetlejuice." "One more time, Babes." Lydia grinned at her nickname "Beetlejuice." "It's show time." Only his green eyes and Cheshire grin showed.

"Beej, stop playing around." Lydia giggled. His whole body then appeared. He was floating about one inch from Lydia's bed. "Beej, so what were you saying before you got poofed back?" Lydia asked. Beetlejuice's smile went away along with the twinkle in his eyes. "I don't want to talk about it, Lyds." "But.." "No." "Beej." Lydia said in a threatening voice.

"Lyds." Beetlejuice said in the same tone "Beej." "No." "Please! Bj, I promise I won't," "Won't what?" "I won't get mad at you anymore. I will make sure that no one sends you away anymore." "Like that will help." Beetlejuice said rolling his eyes. "Beej, please! PLEASE TELL ME!" Lydia said worriedly. Her big dark eyes widened and Beetlejuice felt a tug at his heart. "Bj, just please,"

"I'm dying, Lydia." Beetlejuice faintly whispered while averting his eyes to look at Lydia's bed comforter.

Twist in plot! I didn't really think of that, but it seems like my mind is finally working again. I will like to thank the people who left a review. Thanks a bunch! No, seriously. THANKS A BUNCH! So hopefully, I can write faster if time permits. Please a leave a review on how I can make this better (grammar wise and spelling wise or whatever you will like to think of.) Thank you for reading! :3
