New new 2
Hey hey hey! Thank you for your reviews!There's not a lot to say NOW so just read on.
I was awaken to the smell of honey. I slowly pried my eyes open to reveal two worried looking ghost above me.
"Lydia, thank heavens you're awake. How are you feeling?", Barbra asked petting my head gently. I smiled warmly at both her and Adam, but it quickly faded as I realized WHY I fainted in the first place. "Are you ok honey?", she questioned putting her hand to my forehead.
I propped myself up on my elbows only to find I was in my bed. "I fine! Really you guys... I mean, my back is a little sore, but other than that I feel fine.", Barbra nodded. Satisfied with my answer. She handed me a black coffee mug that was, of course, hot to the touch. It smelled sweet and the steam made my face hot as it hit me. "What's this for?", I asked taking a sip of the warm liquid.
"It's just to calm your nerves.", she said akwardly.
"Oh...", I said with my head bowed. The fell silent. That's when I heard shouting of a women in the hall. Then I asked a very stupid question, "Is Delia home?", Adam and Barbra exchanged a worried glance before looking back at me. I honestly knew the WHO was on the other side of the door, but I felt that if I kept denying it then it wouldn't have really happened.
Adam put his firm hand on my shoulder gently. "No, Lydia. Sadly it's...someone else.", he gave me a look as if telling me who it was. I sighed a took a big gulp of my tea. I REALLY need to be calm now.
"So what really ha-", I started to say but got cut off my the opening of my door.
"I mean it Geuse! If you even think about pulling a stunt like that, I'll have you sent to the waiting room so fast it'll make your head spin.", Juno said storming in. "You don't just show up! You scared the girl so bad she fainted!"
"What can I say? I have that effect on women.", he said with a snicker. Juno scowled at him before making her way twords me. And he was soon trailing after her. Juno turned on her heels and blocked Betelgeuse from me.
"No, you can't go anywhere near her. You stay right the, and don't move a muscle!", she turned back to me. "I see she's finally awake. Good. We need to have a chat.", she then made a hand motion with her hands for us to follow. Adam and Barbra got up from my bed and started to go with Juno. I started to push myself off the bed to go with them as well but Adam stopped me.
"I think she just wants us..", I nodded in understanding and readjusted myself on my bed. They all started to walk out my door, all of them except him. He just stood there staring at me with a wolf like grin. I felt...uncomfortable under his gaze.
"Get your ass out here Geuse! I don't trust you alone with that girl," Juno hollered. There was a moment hesitation before he turned around to leave.
But before he did, he looked back at me and winked. "See ya real soon, babes.", I unintentionally wrinkled my noise in displeasure. This got a small chuckle from him. "I'm coming Jun bug. Don't get your granny panties in twist.", he gave me a small wave and he was out the door. Barbra closed the door softly behind him. I let out a deep breath of relief.
I was a bit more calm after all of them left. I took more big gulp of that calming tea before setting it down on my nightstand. I laid back down and snuggled under the covers. I fixed my school uniform so the skirt would stay in place.
I might as well get some shut eye while I can. I have a feeling I won't be getting a lot of it.
AUTHOR'S P.O.V.
Barbra, Adam, Juno, and Betelgeuse made their way downstairs to the living room. Betelgeuse had comfortably sat himself down on their couch putting his dirty boots on their coffee table. The rest of them, however, just stood their waiting for someone to speak.
Juno sighed with aggravation and started to smoke a cigaret. Smoking has always seemed to calm her down. "Look, I know this may be a bit confusing but if you will just be-"
"Confusing?! This is NOT confusing! This is- this is horrible! That, that, that THING is in OUR home!", Barbra said rather loudly. Adam put his hands on her shoulders and whispered 'calm down honey'. She took a deep breath and folded her arms across her chest.
"I think what she's trying to say is, that we're past confusing Juno. Now can you explain to us what's going on here?", Juno took a long drag from her cigaret.
"There has been some kind of mix up in the system. And this guy," Juno pointed over to Betelgeuse, "has been jumping all over the place. He's trying to take advantage our little problem. So my bosses have gone through his file trying to find a place where he can't do to much harm."
"And what does this have todo with us?", Adam asked.
"Well, after going through his file, they seemed to have stumbled upon your case.", Barbra looked worryingly at Juno as if she knew what she was going to say. "It looks like they have chosen you to do the worst thing in your afterlives."
All of a sudden Betelgeuse pooped up behind Barbra and Adam and slung his arms over the two. "In other words," he said in his gruff voice,"we're gonna be roommates!" Both Barbra and Adam jumped away from him to Juno. They wore a shocked expression as he started to laugh.
"What?! This can't be right! How long is he going to be staying with us? More importantly WHY did they pick US?!", Barbra fumed. Adam made no move to calm her, he was equally as angry.
"Sad to say it is right. They chose you two because you all survived his 'help' last time he was here. I guess they figure you could handle him for a while.", she said with slight sarcasm.
"So how long is he gonna be here?", Adam asked.
"A few months, tops. We're still not sure yet.", they both looked dumbfounded. Shocked and angered all rapped into one. "They have allowed you a special favor thou. In any case of emergency you are allowed to travel from here to our world. There will be no time difference and someone will be here to help with your little problem.", the news gave them little comfort but it was reassuring.
"Hey! I'm gonna go rade your kitchen for some grub. Or at lest a beer.", Betelgeuse mumbled. Juno only dismissed him with her hand as the Maitlands threw question after question at her. He smiled wickedly. As soon as he was in the kitchen and out of sight he disappeared.
He then reappeared in a certain room with a certain girl.
LYDIA'S P.O.V.
I woke up but my eyes were still closed. I had finally gotten to sleep only to wake up again! I was determined to get back to sleep.
I rolled over trying to get comfortable when my back touched something cold. It felt nice against my sore back. And, against my better judgment, I scooted closer to it. It was slightly relieving as rubbed up against it. I was comfortable here.
That was until I felt something cold run up my leg. At first I just shook my leg trying to get whatever it was off of me. Yet it was still there! And it was getting higher and higher up my long skirt. I reached down and grabbed the damn thing only to find that I was holding someone's hand.
My heart rate increased as I had a sinking feeling I knew who it was. It slowly turned my head to be face to face with Betelgeuse. He gave me a crazy grin and I almost died. I opened my mouth to scream for someone ANYone, but his dirty hand clamped over my mouth faster than I could blink. The grossest thing I ever had to experience-AGAIN!
"Now, now Lydia," he purred in my ear,"I wouldn't be screaming if I were you. Did you forget how I am, or am I gonna have to remind you why I'm the ghost with the most?" He snaked his arm around my waist and started to rub anywhere his hand could reach. I shut my eyes tight with defeat and shook my head. "That's a good girl.", he removed his hand away from my mouth but kept his arm in the same spot.
I tried to push away but it did nothing on his hold. So I lay here in bed with a perverted dead guy holding me with his arm. Just great...
"So, you're what, 16 maybe 17.", he spoke softly. I groaned. "What'sa matter babes? Don't like my company?"
"No! Now get out of my room before I-I scream or call your name or something.", I suck a threatening if it isn't obvious. He chuckled as if I were some kind of pathetic joke. "What's so funny?", I asked still trying to pry his arm away from my waist.
"Go ahead babes. You can scream my name all you want too. As long as you want too.", he purred. I made a face of discust at his suggestive tone. "As a matter of fact I dare you to say it.", I got quiet at his challenge. Was this really a good idea? "Look I'll make you a deal. If you could say my name even once, which I doubt you could since you're such a wimp, I'll let go of your waist. Got it?"
I bit my lip in thought. One side of me was saying 'You'd be one step closer to getting rid of him.' and another me screaming 'DON'T DID IT! IT'S A TRAP!' But it seems that my stupid side as been wining a lot lately. "Betelgeuse...", I said in a whisper. Almost to the point where you couldn't hear it.
Right away I no longer felt his arm around me. I quickly sat up on my bed. I looked left and right to see if he was still in my room. When I was sure I couldn't see him I leaned back expecting to hit my headboard. Instead I hit something ruff and cold. Before I had a CHANCE to move away two arms held me in place.
I started to kick and thras only to have my legs trapped under his legs. "I thought you said you'd let go.", I huffed obviously frustrated. He laughed quietly.
"I never said I wouldn't be back, babes. Besides, you're to huggable and squeezable. Not to mention you smell so good.", he whispered the last part into my ear. Goosebumps formed over my skin as his cold breath hit me. And I shuddered with under disgust when his dead lips started to kiss my neck. "Ohhh, and my oh my do you taste real good Lyds.", I froze for a minute as he kissed me. Mainly from shock.
Then I started to throw a mini fit. Swinging my arms around till it hit something.
I guess I hit when he pulled away and rubbed his head tenderly. "Wow babes! Didn't know you could throw a punch like that.", noticing his arms were no longer around me I tried to jump off my bed. Only to find that his LEGS were still holding mine. I ended up with my hands on the ground and legs tangled in his. "Whoa there babes! Ya aint gonna get away that easy.", there was a slight pause. I was still trying to CLAW my way to the other side of the room. "Although, the view I'm getting here is pretty satisfying..."
I felt my face burn hot as I realized I was wearing a skirt! I tried kicking my legs to get out of his grip, only getting a whistle out of him. Finally I gave up. "Can you help me up?", I grumbled bitterly.
"What was that? I couldn't quite hear you...", he teased. I grinded my teeth together.
"Help me up damn it!", I said a little to loudly for his taste. Next thing I knew his arms were wrapped around me once more. He rested his head on my shoulder. I was seriously thinking about my previous position, and if it were better than this one I'm in now.
"Watch your tone there missy. Wouldn't want those ghosts of yours to rain on our parade.", his lips gently touching my neck.
"17", I said randomly. He backed his face away to look at me. I held my breath fearing the worst.
"What?"
"You asked my age... I'm 17 years old.", I could just imagine his stupid grin. This day can't get any worse...
Yay I'm done! I hope this chapter was long enough till I can give you another one. Man I'll probably be done with the next week or so... Ps I hope BJ was Pervy enough in here. Hopefully I can make him MORE of a pervert later. Thanks for everything! Now review, or Beetlejuice will tell me to stop writing this story!
