Pity date

Musical Beetlejuice x reader

You let a coworker set you up just to get them to shut up, beetlejuice doesnt like it

Gender neutral reader, they are called wife once tho

Mentions of vomit

Staring at your reflection in your bedroom mirror you grumble to yourself, dressed nice yet casual.

"So it for the free meal and peace and quiet" you grumble to yourself as you grab your bag and keys and head out.

...

For 2 months now a coworker has been going on and on about how they know the perfect gut for you, and how you just had to let them set the two of you up, you declined everytime saying how you werent intrested in dating, or how you're too busy, or how there was someone you already liked, but they insisted.

You mentioned this coworker to the literal demon you have crashing at your place once or twice, and their solution was to bring him to work and say hes your hubby♡. You gave the ghoul a polite chuckle assuming it was a joke, even though you wouldnt mind that out come of your relationship, you played it off assuming beetlejuice just wanted an excuse to run wild in a store full of breathers.

Your coworker's constant bombardment finally wore you down and you broke, one date, that was it, you sacrifice your free time for food and future peace and quiet at work, that was the plan.

Coming home the day of this was something, been could tell you were in a less then fun mood.

"Why so glum sugar plum?" He teases pinching your cheeks

You lightly smack away his hand and groan before flopping down on the couch face first into the cushions. You take a second laying there in silence before pulling yourself back up and telling the demon what's going on, venting your frustrations over your pushy coworker.

Beetlejuice tried his best to conceal his anger, red hues slowly creeping into his hair. You obviously werent into this idea, but what if the guy is charming? Or hotter then him? What if he makes you laugh harder then he ever did? What if this act of pity turns into true love and this shmuck takes you away from him?

The demon's mind wanders with these gloomy thoughts, purple now joining the green and red in his hair. He couldnt let this happen, he wasnt going to be alone ever again, you were his, you just dodnt know it yet.

"So~" beetlejuice slicks back his hair sweeping the red and purple away "wheres this little mess happening?" He trys to give you a soft 'I'm not planning anyhting' smile, you sigh and check your phone.

"The amusement park is in town next week, he was very eager on taking me, and apparently their main attraction is the haunted house, so I guess that's what I'm doing next weekend" you could feel the dread creeping in, losing your day off for this, you were too focused debating on if you should call in sick next week to balance this out, you didnt see beetlejuice giving you the most shark toothed grin you've ever seen on him, this breather wont know what hit em.

...

So there you were waiting at the entrance at this little pop up amusement park waiting for this blind date.

"Y/n?"

You turn to see the most generic looking plain guy you've ever met.

"Uhh yeah?"

"I'm mark, Lena had told me so much about you, wow you're even cuter in person"

You give him a half smile, it was kinda creepy to have your coworkers talk about you outside work, and to show others pictures of you, even creeper, you swallow your negative feelings and force a smile on your face, the sooner this was over, the sooner you'll never have to deal with your pushy coworker again.

"Beetlejuice, beetlejuice, beetlejuice"

In a puff if green smoke the ghost with the most appears.

"We're here" lydia says flatly, not too thrilled to be at this pop up disaster.

Beetlejuice grabs the kid's hand and shakes it "thanks lyds, I owe ya big for this!" He babbles

"Yeah" she pulls her hand away "have fun ruining y/n night out with their future husband" she tease

Beetlejuice snarls at the thought "dont even joke about that kid, I'm y/n's future husband, and IF you play your cards right we'll adopt you" he sticks his tongue out at the child before vanishing

"BJ I have parents!" The kid hollers to the spot the ghoul once stood.

Your date eagerly dragged you to the haunted house, as if his life depended on it, this whole night has been as dull as you expected, first he tried to show off at the 'test your strength' game, a game where you won by a mile. Then he tried and failed to win you a stuffed toy on the ring toss, after you saying you werent intrested in it. He vomited after the two of you got off the tilt a whirl, almost cried on the ferris wheel, and threw up again on the scrambler, at this point you were feeling pretty bad for the guy.

Unbeknownst to you beej has been watching the whole time, the ghoul was in absolute hysterics laughing at this guy, he cant believe he was worried about this loser taking you away, but his mirth was cut short after he saw you rubbing his back after he got sick again, why would you comfort this loser? Unless, you had a thing for pathetic guys, in a flash beetlejuice was a fiery red, this loser may have your kindness now, but would he still have it once he's shit himself?!

The ghoul was ready to lunge for the two of you with a cheap but effective jump scare in mind but paused when he saw that shmuck lead you to the haunted house, beej grins to himself and awful toothy grin, showtime.

"Are you sure you're feeling up to this? You should take a second to rest" you asked concerned

"No, no, it's fine, I'm fine" he insisted looking pale, you felt so bad he was doing his best despite everything to impress you, and here you were going to ghost him after this, he wasnt your type that was for certain, maybe the two of you could be friends.

The two of you step into the attraction with beej hot on your trail, invisible, as much as he'd love to run wild and mess with all these breathers you took priority, he couldnt risk you falling into any form of interest with this guy, he feared losing you more then anything, he didnt want to be alone, you are the closest thing he's ever had to a happy home, he loved you, and was sure as hell no one was gonna ruin this.

Despite how awful this evening was, the haunted house was a blast, so fun, it had you screaming, though each scream was followed by a laugh, it honestly reminded you of beej, how'd he mess with you when you were sad to get your mind on something else, how he'd hide his head in the cupboard waiting for you, only to scream when you open the door causing you to scream as well, how the two of you would always share a laugh afterwords.

"If you're scared y/n, I'll protect you"

You were snapped from you thoughts at Mark's odd statement

"what?"

He clears his throat "if you want, you can hold on to me, I'll keep you safe" he outstretched an arm towards you

"Oh, no thanks, I'm good" you waved off this offer, the man threw up twice this evening, there was no way you wanted to touch him, even if you felt romantic towards him.

Beetlejuice growled at his words, with a snap of his fingers he summons the clones, beetlejuice presses a finger to him lips, signaling them to keep quiet.

"Get y/n and play somewhere away from their 'friend'" beej spat, he knew it would be easy to go full demon on this guy without you interfering, yes the ghoul adored you, and loved how you let him go ham when I came to scaring, but you help too much kindness and would definitely try and stop him.

The clones, excited to see you and play dash off off into the darkness to get you, the orginal stays behind readying his attack.

You and mark continue your way through the haunted house, jumping and screaming all the while, the two of you pass a door and in a flash a barrage of hands shoot out grabbing you, you try to scream for help, but one hand was quick to slap itself over your mouth, and as quickly as the hands grabbed you, they pulled you back into the darkness, the door shutting behind you.

'Mark was completely frozen, staring at the place where you once stood, baffled on what happened, did this attraction have visitor participation? That was way too complicated to be sprung on a random person. Mark slowly backs up, scared he'll be grabbed next, thought he wasnt wrong, the man freezes in his tracks when his body bumps against what he assumed was another person, he jumps forward

"I'm so sorry!" He babbles, but goes white in the face when he turns to see a man, or upon first glance, the more mark stared on him the more he realized it wasnt a person

There stood beetlejuice, a fiery red took over his hair, scruff, shirt and tie, his teeth were jagged and sharp, his eyes resemble that of a snake, and he reaked of decay and death

"You will be"

With an ungraceful thud you are lightly tossed on the floor of what looked like a storage room, surrounding you were Beetlejuice's clones, you pause for a moment as you put two and two together

"Beetlejuice is here!" You blurt out, instantly your heart fills with worry, was he running wild here and sent the guys to stop you from ruining his fun? What if something bad happens to him? Yeah he's a strong demon, but what if someone out there is capable of hurting him? You jump to your feet and try to leave but to clones are quick to wrap you up in their arms

"Guys please, I need to go-"

"Does y/n not love us anymore?" One coos nuzzling his head into your neck "y/n we just want to play" another joins in "boss said we could play~♡" another purrs into your ear, you could honestly feel like your legs were gonna turn to jelly over their attention, but thos wasnt the time.

"If you guys help me find beetlejuice now we can play whatever you want later" a dangerous promise, but desperate times call for it. The clones pause for a second, as if to debate getting in trouble with the original was worth it, though the debate only took a moment the clones were on your side, all with hints of pink gracing their appearance.

One clone took you hand and led you to beetlejuice while the others were right behind you.

Back with beetlejuice and your 'date' the ghoul has turned this haunted house into his own personal torture chamber, trapping mark inside, along with lydia who has wandered inside to watch beetlejuice do his thing, and a few other unlucky breathers,though they werent as unlucky as your date, who was the main focus of Beetlejuice's rage.

The clones lead you right to their boss, who now took the form of a giant spider, teasing mark that he was gonna eat him.

"BEETLEJUICE!" you holler "BEETLEJUICE" again

"Babes dont-" in a flash he was back to his old self,  the doors swing open and everyone including mark run out screaming and crying.

"Awww" groans lydia walking up to the two of you

"You're here too, oh, I get it" you sigh "bee, why did you do this? He really didnt deserve, I mean, he was nice, but, that was uncalled for" you start

Purple begins to creep into the ghoul's hair, did you really like that guy? More then him?

"I mean, it was kinda funny though...." you mumble

The demon's eyes light up, beetlejuice adjusts his tie with a smirk on his face knowing he's not really in trouble "so, did I ruin your little date? Guess you ain't going steady with that fella now huh?"

You snort out a laugh "he really isnt my type"

"What is your type? Tall, dark, and decomposed?" The ghoul nudges you with his elbow, earning another laugh from you

Lydia rolls her eyes at your guy's flirting

"So what are the two of you doing here? Are you guys here with Delia and Charles? Small world huh?" You giggle

"Beej made me summon here so he could ruin your date" lydia says plainly

"What?"

"Kids say the darndest things" beetlejuice chuckles giving lydia a shove

"Yeah, he was scared youd fall in love with the guy and leave him all alone" she teases

"Lydia!" He hollers, clearly embarrassed the kid ratted him out

"Is that true bee?" You ask softly

".....yeah" he mumbles purple taking over "you're mine y/n, and I dont wanna share ya, you're my happy home, but come on what pretty little breather would wanna knock boots with a smelly old corpse"

You lightly grab his hand "you're not that smelly" you give the demon a soft smile, he stares back at you wide eyed, unsure what to do next, the concept on genuine kindness was so foriegn to him.

You gently lean forward and kiss his cheek "I'll always be your happy home, never worry about that, I want you to be a part of my life" you whisper

Pruple quickly vanishing for the demon's hair in favour of a soft pink, beetlejuice scoops you up bridal style and hollers "lyds call Delia, and tell her to start planning our wedding!"

"What?!" You respond

Lydia pulls out her phone, and starts tapping away "you two are disgusting and sappy, I'm going home"

"Dont leave me with him" you plead as the kid walks away, you were trapped between beetlejuice and his clones, each clone wanting to shake your hand and congratulate you.

For the next week beetlejuice referred to you as his future wifey

Bonus

Going into work the following Monday was weird, lena was quick to get to you saying how mark told them everything, you were terrified youd have to try and talk your way out of what the guy saw, but no, your coworker was too busy saying how impressed they were with what they herd went on in the haunted house, they had no idea that pop up amusement park had that kind of budget,

You laughed it off saying it sure was something, and thanking them for setting you up, but explained how you recently found some one else.

CALL OF THE RAVEN

PART 2

Next thing I remember was waking up in a hospital. The bright light from the window made me squint my eyes, and my head throbbed as hell. „Arghh, too bright.“ I mumbled, as a cheerfull voice next to me responded  „Well finaly, I was begining to worry you would never wake up! You know, you're taking those beautysleep advices too seriously.“ My eyes ajusted to the light, and I was looking at that cheerful, loving face, the face I knew oh so well. „Hmm, considering all, an extra hour or so of beautysleep is so allowed for me.“  I said, my voice hoarse a bit. She snorted „Make that 'an extra day or so'! You slept for almost three days!“ she said, walkig towards my bed and hugging me carefully. It felt good, just knowing she was there. She pulled away from me, her face serious.  “What wer you thinking?“ „ I'm sorry Jessy, so, so sorry.“  I said, tears swelling behind my eyes. „ I know what I did was stupid, but belive me, I really tought I was doing the right thing.“ „The 'right thing' almost got you killed Maya!“ she yelled at me, wich made me realize just how much she was worried about me. I burried my face in my hands, tears falling down „Please Jessy, dont be mad at me, I feel awfull as it is already. I realize my actions wer wrong, but I cant undo any of it now. And God knows im more then happy to be alive, and Hannah too! And I know my „sorry“ might not be enough this time, but I reall am sorry Jessy, you cant imagine how much. But please, please, you have to forgive me, I couldnt stand if I loose you!“ I couldnt force myself to look at her, I was so scared she would just get up and leave. And who could blame her, really, after all I did, she would have every right to do so. Suddenly, my hands wer slowely being moved from my face, and i opened my eyes  to see hers holding mine. I lifted my head, and our eyes met. Hers wer now also full of tears. She hugged me so fiercly, and even if everything still hurted me like hell, I was so reliefed and hugged her back tightly as I could. „Ofcourse I forgive you, Maya. I was so damn worried and scared that I will loose you!“ I was releifed to hear her say it, I hugged her even tighter, saying through my tears „I'm sorry Jessy.“ She held me like that for a while, and then pulled slowly back. „I'm glad you're ok Maya.“ She said, smile coming back to that pretty face. „Look at us! Bawling here like little kids.“ That made me chuckle, and i said whiping my tears  „Huh, I never tought our fist time meeting would be with me in the hospital. But, hey, im not picky, i'm just glad I finaly had a chance to hug you.“  „I dont think anyone imagined this to be the place of your first meeting us. You do realize others will want to come and see you? Dan already wanted to come with me, he was mumbling something about how he owes you a whiskey. But i gave him such a stern look, he just kissed me goodby and said to say 'hi' from him and ran away from me.“ The tought of Dan being scared of Jessy made me laugh so hard, i got a little dizzy from the pain. Jessy noticed me vincing, quickly saying „But that can wait, you need to rest more first. It's not like you're going anywhere anytime soon!“ She looked at me all serious, and i understood why Dan acted like he did. „Dont worry, Jessy, I wont try to break out of hospital.“ I said with a grin on my face. „A bit of r'n'r is definatly what I need now.“ „Good! And since i'm clearly your favorite person from our little clique, you wont get rid of me that easy while  in here.“ She said cheerfully. „Thanks, Jessy. I mean it, Im really glad you're here with me.“ „Me too, Maya, me too.“ She stayed with me that whole afternoon, and I was happy about it. We talked about everything we could think of: how we gonna take that walk arround Duskwood together, having coffee at the Rainbow caffee, going to Aurora for drinks. Jessy was so full of life, and managed to stay so positive through all of this mess. She told me that police gave her my stuff and my phone, and will bring me what i need. It wasnt so important, but i could really use my phone.  It was like Jessy could read my mind, and she looked at me with simpathy „Did Jake contacted you?“  There was a knot in my stomack when she asked, because I knew I wasnt out in the clear with what I did with everyone just jet. „I dont know, Jessy,  I guess i'll find out when I get my phone. But im sure Lily told him all about it by now, and to be honest, it's the one conversation i'm scared of having at the moment.“ „I'm sure it will be fine.“ „I really hope so, Jessy. I really care so much for him. I dont know for sure what he feels, and it doesnt really matter, I just cant stand the tought of him being mad at me. Or not talking to me anymore...I got so used of having him arround, even just virtualy..i dont know Jessy, i cant explain it... i just need him in my life. Does this make any sense to you?“  She looked at me, with care and a hint of worry showing on her face „Yes Maya, it makes perfect sense.“ We talked for a while more. She looked at the clok on the wall and jumped „Oh, yay I gotta go, forgot Im meeting Dan! He made me promise to meet later, since I didnt let him come with me here.“ „Heh, better go then, I dont want Dan blaming me AGAIN for getting stud up by you. Or he might not buy me that whiskey he promised, an to be honest I could really use it now.“ I sad smiling at her. „Ohh no, you two are gonna be a pain in the butt when you meet, arent you?“ she groaned, but a smile was written all over her face. „Dont worry, i'll behave..as much as possible. As for Dan, im sure if you join us and give him some of your 'scarry' looks, he'll behave too.“  She bursted out laughing. „Oh, cant wait for it! I'll go grab your phone  real quick, and then im off.“ She ran for the door, stoped, turned arround giving me one more of her beautiful smiles „I'm really glad you're ok Maya.“ I smiled back,“ Me too Jessy, me too.“ She came back with my phone, plugged it to charge next to my bed hugging me quickly before leaving.

It was almost dark outside, and the room was so quiet since Jessy left. There wasnt much comotion in the hospital, and I appriciated it actualy, some peace after all the mess was a nice change. I stared at the window for a while, just enjoyeing the sceene of the sun setting down, the sky taking that purpleish-blue color. I was actually delaying the moment of turning my phone on, because I was scared. A the same time I hoped Jake would contact me, but then I was also scared of talking to him. Its been three days since the incident, and im sure Jake found out everything by now, so maybe he vented some of the anger off in the mean time. Ah, c'mon Maya, dont be a sissy! – i tought to myself – You stared death in the face, and showed it the middle finger, and you're scared of that thing? I took a deep breath, took my phone from the stand, and turned it on. It felt like forever for it to turn when i punched my code, and when it finaly did, i left it aside. The beeping of new messages, missed calls, new emails and all was the only sound spreading through the room. And with every beep my stomach reacted a bit, thinking if any of those beeps belongs to Jakes. I got so lost in my toughts, that a voice snaped me back, startling me a bit. A nurse smiled „Sorry hun, i didnt want to fright you. Just came to chek up on you, ask if you need anyhting and to give you some pain meds.“ She winked at me „It's the good stuff, will help you sleep better.“ „Thank you, mam, im good.“ I smiled back at her, and quickly glanced at my phone - 44 missed calls, 24 messages, 17 emails. That will be some time killing stuff. The nurse was done, she waved at me wishing me good night, saying to feel free calling her if I needed anything. I thanked her again as she left the room. I took my phone, my hand shakeing. I checked 'missed calls' first, and tho i didnt expect it, was a bit dissapointed Jake wasnt among one of them. I opened the messages, and Jessy's message was on top. „Sending you hugs&kisses!“ it was written under the picture of her and Dan, grining with their glasses raised. It made me smile, and i texted her back „Hehe, Dan must be happy you actualy came this time! xD Have fun you two, cant wait to join you. Hugs&kisses“ I checked other messages, and my hearth squeezed a bit when i saw he didnt texted either. I didnt feel like replaying to any at the moment, settling the phone back on the stand. I switched off the light above the bed, turned on the side, staring at now complete darkness throught the window. One tear rolled down my cheek as i closed my eyes, hoping sleep will come soon.

[sugarchains]

can someone please tell my brain to get it together because like

i just

i dont feel like doing anything

and its not that i cant focus. i absolutely can

and its not my students! today i had all my kids and none of them knew anything was up

had parent teacher conferences and was working with parents 

one of my favorite boys, who is an ell and has a learning disability, got all 75′s and 80s on his report card. my boy was in SHOCK 

looked wild confused while me and his mom was talking

but just. 

i feel like crying. i did cry. im so annoyed with everything and its too the point where like one of my work moms was like excuse whats wrong. but shes upset because i wont articulate it

bc its just. asinine things to be upset about. i had to redo all my feedback on the bulletin board bc i told the kids “nice job” “fantastic work” “you did amazing here” 

you cant use that language

so even tho all of that was followed up with “you answered the prompt fully” or “you pulled evidence from the text” or “you showed the genre for the story using x words) thats not good enough

and like. i was asking why. like what was wrong with saying that they did well with their work and the only answer i was getting back was “Thats what the superintendent wants” like im not trying to be diffcult but i would love an explanation

they made me change my lesson plans bc this year theyve decided they dont want you to use student first language. even though they have collected my lesson plans like at least 10 times this year and no one has said anything

and i think the one that REALLY killed me was when we had our meetings on monday. i sent out an agenda to the social studies team on sunday night, cc’d the principal bc thats what you do and he said yes you guys should have time to break out and meet as a social studies team away from ELA. 

then both him and another admin come to our meeting and sit in. but instead of allowing social studies to break out, they kept popping in and out, bringing people in, interjecting etc

so we met after school bc thats when we have the whole school meetings. and when we got a chance to break into teams and we started talking, he had the nerve to come over to us and ask why our minutes werent filled out from earlier?

and said that we should have filled them out during the meeting earlier so we could go over everything now and one of my coworkers stepped in bc i looked a the principal and i know my face asked what the fuck he was talking about

and THEN theres the coverages we all have? bc other teachers are always out. this one science teacher from the 7th grade is fucking on a leave of abscence because of her anxiety. a MONTH long abscence. its literally like at least 2x a week im getting a coverage for her bullshit class. and i usually do whatever bc i k n o w we’re stretched thin

i feel it. but having coverages back to back and then having my own class is fucking stupid. and not fair to me, let alone to the kids. 

it feels like more effort than when i was in grad school and i dont know why because i literally only go to work and go home. im not doiing anyhting else. i dont have time to do anything else. all the projects and stuff i want to work on are just sitting on my desk or in the kitchen bc i dont have time to do anything fun 

im just really tired and so done
