A Player 3? // Beetlejuice x Be More Chill crossover

• Chapter 9 •

~ Lydia POV ~

I walk to school. Last night I slept very badly because of the Squip and the thought that Beetlejuice is back. Where would he be now?

Do not walk so bent. You look like a depressed panda. You want Christine to like you? Then listen to me.

I quickly walk more upright. I'm almost at our school. I see Jeremy, Michael, Rich, Jake, Christine, Brooke, Chloe and Jenna standing by the lockers. I walk over to them. "Hey, guys-"

My body gets heavy and I fall to the ground. Suddenly I don't see anything anymore.

Darkness.

Cold, lonely darkness...

I open my eyes. I look around in panic. Then I feel a hand on mine and look into the eyes of a girl, not just a girl. Christine?!

"Calm down, Lydia. You passed out, but you are now in your own bedroom." she says.

My eyes fill with tears and I hug Christine.

When I recovered, I sat up in my bed. "How do you even know where I live?" I ask. "Jeremy told me. Jake picked you up and went back to school. The rest couldn't go to your house 'cause yeah... school."

I laugh a little. I feel myself blushing.

Christine stares deeply into my eyes. Our faces slowly converge.

This is your chance, Lydia.

"Sorry, but I can't do this." Christine says then. "What ..?" "Lydia, I think you're really nice, but I like Jake."

I'm sitting on my bed staring in front of me. I was so close to my first kiss with my first love. It feels like Christine took a saw and cut my heart in two.

Christine walks out of my room. She looks back again. "I'm sorry..."

My eyes fill with tears.

You're such a loser.

"I'm such a loser..."

Something needs to be changed about you.

"I need to be changed..."

And if you listen to me, you won't be a freak anymore.

"And when I listen to my Squip..."

I stop crying.

"I won't be a freak anymore."
