Y/N slowly woke up and rubbed her eyes. Her arms stung again. It was good to feel something even if it was pain. The young woman thought about last night, shrugging it off as a weird dream. She gently grabbed a pillow, pulling it towards her and clutching it close to her.
Beetlejuice appeared behind her. "Good mornin'!" He said.
Y/N yelped in surprise and turned around. "You- I thought- I thought it was some weird ass fever dream!"
"Nope! Yer stuck with me now." He winked at her, floating beside her bed in a sitting position.
"I'm going crazy.." She sat up and held her head in her hands.
"No yer not. I'm real. See." He said as he gently poked her side.
She whacked his arms away. "Yeah.. okay.. I guess." She muttered, shaking her head.
Beetlejuice grinned. "I know it's hard to believe, babes. Seein' someone as sexy as me." He sniggered and smirked.
"Ew.." She said, holding the pillow close to her, not looking at Beetlejuice.
"So whatcha gonna go today?!" He asked cheerfully.
"Nothing.." She mumbled. "I need to look for a job though." The girl sighed.
"Are ya gonna get outta bed?" He asked, jokingly.
"Probably not." She said laying back down, facing away from the green haired demon.
"Awh, c'mon!" He said, tugging at the back of her hoodie.
"Leave me alone.." She muttered in annoyance.
Beetlejuice teleported in front of her, giving her puppy dog eyes. "C'mon.."
She looked at him for a moment before smiling a bit, trying to hide it. "Fine.." Y/N sat up as the poltergeist floated upwards excitedly. "Great!" He said.
She got up, taking her pillow with her. Beetlejuice floated close to her. Y/N glanced at him. "You're a friendly demon.." She said before opening her bedroom door and going downstairs, Beetlejuice following close behind her, discreetly checking her out.
Y/N plopped down on the couch, cuddling her pillow. "Is this what yer gonna do..?" Beetlejuice asked, cocking an eyebrow.
"Mhm.." She picked up the tv remote, turning on the tv. The demon floated directly above her and she looked up at him. "What're you doing?" She asked.
"Nothin'.. I'm just lookin'." He winked with a grin. Y/N's face flushed a hue of pink. "Well, stop it." She said stubbornly.
"But I have a nice view from up here.." He grinned mischievously.
The girl sat up, grabbing ahold of the demon's sleeve and pulling him down so he would sit on the couch. "Stop being a creep." She said.
"No can do, babes!" He said as he sat on the couch. "It's just who I am." He gently wrapped an arm around her waist, Y/N hitting him in return. He released her and held his hands up defensively. "My bad.. sorry."
Y/N huffed and hugged her pillow as she continued watching the tv.
The demon looked at the tv and would occasionally glance over at the girl. He leaned backwards into the couch.
The young woman glanced over at the poltergeist. "Why do you keep looking at me like that?" She asked.
"No reason.. jus' checkin' yer okay." He said, shrugging.
"What do you mean?" She asked. "I'm fine.." She said, holding her pillow and glancing down at her sleeve covered arms, trying her best not to tear up.
"Well, ya know, movin' into a new house is a bit much. So I'm just makin' sure you're okay." He said, noticing her looking at her arms.
"Oh.. okay.." She said in a whisper. "I need the bathroom.." Y/N said, quickly getting up and going upstairs.
"Okay.." Beetlejuice said, his eyes following her. He furrowed his eyebrows, rubbing the stubble on his chin.
Y/N went into the bathroom, closing the door behind her. She immediately burst into tears, wrapping her arms around herself as she began pacing in the bathroom.
Beetlejuice heard the faint crying and immediately teleported outside of the bathroom to listen.
The girl pulled up her sleeves, tearing off her bandages to stare down at the cuts. She rummaged in the cabinet, grabbing a razor blade. She held her breath slightly, pressing the blade against her skin. Y/N winced, cutting a bit too deep, dropping the blade in the sink. Blood poured from her arm. The sight of that much blood made her feel queasy. She let out a soft sob, feeling her legs buckle underneath her. She expected to hit the floor but she didn't. Beetlejuice had teleported into the bathroom, just in time to catch her from fainting. He saw the blood pouring from her arms and he yelled for the Maitlands. "Babs!! Adam!!" He yelled in distress.
The ghosts heard the demon and rushed downstairs into the bathroom. "Oh my god!" Barbara said in shock.
Adam kneeled down beside Y/N. "Barbara, go get the first aid kit." He said to his wife. "Hello, sweetie, can you hear me?" Adam said as he gently shook the girl. She was still unconscious in the poltergeist's arms.
