Is There Still A We?

Names Unsaid, People Unforgiven

"You could use buddy! Don't you want a pal?" Beetlejuice grabbed Lydia by the shoulders.

"Yes I do, Yes I do!" He mimicked her voice in a squeaky and raspy tone. She simply rolled her eyes, still not impressed.

"Girl, the way I see it! Your Daddy should be leaving and you should stick around. And kill him!"

"What?"

"Nothing." Beetlejuice quickly replied, "So Lydia don't end yourself, defend yourself. Daddy is the one you should maim! Together we'll exterminate, ASSASSINATE!-"

"No!" Lydia wasn't about to have yet another parent dead. She may have had some problems with him, but she didn't want her dad dead.

"The finer points can wait, but first you gotta say my name! Go ahead and jump but that won't stop him, here you got a solid Plan B option! I can bring your Daddy so much pain, all you gotta do is say my name!" Beetlejuice ran circles around the girl, he really wanted to get her to do this. He did feel sort of bad that he wasn't telling her the full truth. But who gives a shit? He was about to scare the living with the help of this teenage girl.

"Girl, just say it three times in a row. And you won't believe how far I'll go, I'm on the bench but COACH!" He pointed at Lydia, blowing a whistle.

"Just put me in the game! All you gotta do is say my name."

"I don't know you're name." Lydia placed a hand on her hip, looking up at Beetlejuice.

"Well I can't say it!" His tone was full of frustration, Lydia quickly had an idea pop into her head.

"How 'bout a game of charades?" She suggested, tilting her head.

"Yes let's play it!" He held up two fingers.

"Two words." Lydia stated.

"Right!" BJ nodded and pointed at his second finger.

"Second word.." She mumbled, getting her guessing mode ready.

"Uh-huh." Beetlejuice then made a motion as if he were drinking something, nothing too specific. Lydia couldn't completely understand what it was he was trying to say.

"Drink?"

"No."

"Beverage?"

"No."

"Wine?" Lydia spoke louder, growing a bit annoyed.

"No."

"Juice?!"

"Yes!"

"Okay first word." Lydia brushed her self off, getting ready to start guessing again.

"Okay." Beetlejuice made an action like something was crawling on his arm, something small and quick. Lydia had sort of an idea on what it was, but she wasn't sure.

"Bug?"

"No."

"Ant?"

"Close but, no!"

"Beetle?"

"YES!" Beetlejuice was so happy, he almost cried tears of joy to himself. She now knew his name, she was finally going to say it!

"Beetlejuice?"

"Wow, I'm impressed! And all you gotta do it say my name three times. Three times in a row, it must be spoken, unbroken! Ready?" He questioned after explaining the rules to her fully and in the best detail he could. He looked at her waiting, she nodded as a smile grew on her face.
