Disclaimer: I still don't own BeetleJuice!
And so after frantically drying off any remains of soapy water and cursing a certain succubus into oblivion, BeetleJuice, still fuming approaches his mirror and scans its smooth surface for a familiar face.
BeetleJuice- "LYDIA!" he shrieks. "Ya gotta let me outta here!"
Lydia screams in shock and rolls off of the bed. After catching her breath she rushes to her mirror to calm the hysterical ghost (and no I don't mean funny)
Lydia- "What's going on? Is it Hellen again?"
BeetleJuice shrieks and proceeds to pull out his hair.
Lydia- "I'll take that as a yes." She says sighing. "BeetleJuice, BeetleJuice, BeetleJuice."
BeetleJuice reappears in her room grinding his teeth, blinded by fury. Lydia rushes to him, easing his hands out of his now even wilder hair and tries to calm him down.
Lydia- "What did she do this time Beej?" she asked softly as BJ continued grinding his teeth. He seemed to be too caught up in the day's events to notice her. "Beej?" she asked, turning his face towards hers.
BeetleJuice- "Huh?" he asked, finally aware of his surroundings.
Lydia- "What did Hellen…"
BJ clamped his hand over Lydia's mouth.
BeetleJuice- "Don't ever say that name again! If I hear it one more time I'm gonna blow a fuse!" he yelled as his face turned red and his head lit up like a sparkler.
Lydia- "Okay! Okay….so what did "she who must not be named" do?" she asked, stifling a giggle.
BeetleJuice- "She! She! She made me! She forced me to! ARRRGH!" he shouted and began pulling at his hair again until Lydia seized his hands and pulled them back out of his hair again. She stood in silence for a moment as if confused, looking back at his now extremely disheveled and…wet hair? She grabbed a fistful of his hair, causing the ghost to squeal as she examined him.
Lydia- (disbelieving) "Beej? Did you bathe?" she asked as she smelled his blond locks.
BeetleJuice- "Not on purpose! That hellcat…um Lydz?" he asked as she buried her face in the crook of his neck. BJ almost melted as he felt her inhale deeply and nuzzle his neck. Somehow, he hadn't expected this to happen. Something caught Lydia's eye when she lifted herhead and she frowned in confusion.
Lydia- "Beej, what happened to your neck?"
BeetleJuice- "Huh?"
Lydia- "Your neck. There's a bruise on your neck." She stated simply and pulled down his shirt collar to examine it more closely. She found a line of bruises going down his collarbone. She blushed furiously as she realized that she had just uncovered evidence of a physical encounter. "But why do I care?" she wondered. "Because he's yours!" a voice hissed in her mind. "That minx stole him from you!" " That's ridiculous!" she thought, reasoning with the voice. "We're just friends." "Are you now?" the voice asked, amused. "You were all over him a moment ago!" it hissed triumphantly. Lydia blushed again as realization dawned on her. BeetleJuice figured out what the bruises and Lydia's blush meant. He walked over to her mirror and stared, transfixed at the marks lining his neck.
BeetleJuice- (puzzled) "I don't even remember how these things got there!" he growled angrily. "The last time I saw her I broke up with her…so how in the hell did it happen?" he asked, turning to Lydia.
Lydia- "You mean, you don't remember?"
BeetleJuice- "To tell ya the truth Lydz, I never really remember much of anythin that happens around her." He said, scratching his head in frustration. "Everytime I see her she throws herself at me and…the rest is a blur."
Lydia- "So what do you remember?" she asked softly.
BeetleJuice blushed and looked away. As embarrassing as it was, he found himself racking his brain for any memories to share with Lydia.
BeetleJuice- "Well…after I went back I tried to break it off with her, but ya know how it is. Ghouls can't resist meand all that so things started gettin a little hostile and then she kissed me…and…I couldn't push her off…and then I sorta woke up in the tub." He said quietly.
Lydia's eyes widened as the last pieces fell together.
Lydia- "Don't you get it BJ?" she asked frantically.
"She's been controlling you the whole time! You don't remember anything because you were in a trance!" she said quickly.
BeetleJuice- "That explains a bit."
Lydia- "Come on!" She said as she grabbed his arm and started dragging him to the mirror.
"We're putting a stop to this right now!" she said angrily.
BeetleJuice- "We? What do ya mean WE!" he cried as they vanished through the mirror.
