He thought to himself is this really me or am I just dreaming? He stopped short of going inside his home well the one he made inside the model. He needed to think long and hard about things. Since he got the letter from Lydia did that mean she cared or even missed him? If she cared then why didn't she say anything to him? There were so many questions and it made his head spin. He went inside to clear his head.
Lydia awoke screaming but luckily no one heard her. It was the same one again. She didn't understand why she kept having this one dream only. The dream was about her being swallowed by a giant sandworm and no one coming to help her. It was quite scary to her. She started to cry and think that that must have been how he felt. She went to the bathroom to wash her face off from the tears. As she dried her face off she had made up her mind to go talk to him.
Again she took a deep breath before heading in. He felt her and he decided to watch her. She got close to the model so she could touch it. "I know you're here BJ." He didn't really mind the nickname she gave him. She was the only one to give him one and every time he heard her say it. It made him smile and not one of his usual ones either. "I came to talk to you whether you are here or not." He didn't know what to say or even how to say anything. For once in his undead life he was speechless. "I guess you aren't there or not listening. So i am gonna head back to bed."
Right before she turned to walk out he appeared. As he looked up at her he was taken aback at how much more gorgeous she had gotten in the past two years. She noticed him standing there in the middle of the road that ran from one end of the model to the other. "Can you shrink me to your size BJ?" With a flick of the wrist she stood right in front of him inside the model. "What do you want Babes?" "I came to talk to you and to apologize." As she said the word apologize he felt his stomach knot up because what had she done wrong other than not marry him but that was by force so he couldn't hold that against her; although he did want to hold her tight in his arms.
"Did you get my note?" He nodded at her and with that he felt I guess what breathers would call guilty. "What about it?" She stopped talking for a moment and she realized that he probably didn't read it or didn't even care. "Did you read it?" she sounded quite hurt as the question came out and they both knew it. He looked her up and down again. Had this girl really been the same one that stole his unbeating heart away? "What if I did read it?" as he said it she hugged him. "I knew you would and this is a goodbye for permanent." As her arms wrapped him close to her he felt a shiver go down his spine.
As her grip started to loosen he grabbed her and held her tight to his body. The longer he held her the more she felt her body get hot. She looked up at him and stared at his face. She thought that he was quite handsome in a dark way. He noticed that she was staring at him and he stared at her. For a few minutes which felt like forever to them both he quickly kissed her on her very pale pink, soft, full lips. It caught her off guard and instead of pushing away she returned the kiss. It surprised him that she didn't let go and that she actually kissed him back. The more passion he put into the kiss the more she did too. His hands started to move from around her to her hips. Her hands moved from where they were to his face. To her he tasted of honey and to him she tasted of ripe juicy strawberries. As they continued to kiss they started to float. She ran fingers through his wild and crazy hair. He felt pleasure surge through him as she did it. They came back down to Earth. They pulled away looking at one another. "Can I ask you a question BJ?" "Sure Babes." "How long have you felt this way towards me Beej?" "I guess ever since I laid eyes on you." "Could you and would you be mine?" Beetlejuice looks at her and thinks is she really wanting to be with me? If that was the case he had to get her a ring like a promise one. "BJ i'm talking to you." "Sorry babes. I can't answer you right now." With that answer she just starts balling in both her hands. "Babes it is not what you think. I want to be yours, but I have to do something before that." She stops crying and slightly smiles at him. They hug one another and he sends her back to normal size.
Beetlejuice sat and pondered how he would surprise her with it. He was thinking maybe flowers and then give it to her. Nah, maybe getting down on one knee then asking her to be his. Mmmm...why was it so hard to to decide what to do? Then it hit, why not have a picnic in the models cemetery, it suits them both. A little wine and dine than just give it to her. Now the hard part; how was he gonna get a ring for her? He had no money or even a job for that matter.
Lydia awoke early and was actually smiling. She did her normal routine to get ready for school. As she came down the stairs; she was met by Barbara. "Lydia dear how do you feel about a cake and party streamers?" "I don't really care about the streamers but the cake sounds yummy." After that her dad and everyone else started asking questions about what she liked for the party.
