Beetlejuice and Lydia were very close together. While beetle was gross, odd and loved to make pranks and jokes. Lydia on the other hand was a very sweet, yet odd person as well. She loved small bugs and other oddities, they were in a perfect balance together, black and white, yin and Yang.

As time went on however,  when Lydia finished high school grew she wanted to go to California to find a college since peaceful Pines didn't really have any.

Beetlejuice on the other hand was worried about her. Thinking that she'll forget about him. Even in the afterlife he felt alone. Yet with Lydia he felt like a part of his soul was healed.

For Lydia, Beetlejuice was a really good friend. They did everything together, going on a lot of adventures. But eventually she knew that it wouldn't last forever.

It was another wonderful day in peaceful pines.
"Aw come on babes!" Beetle says holding a bug to eat. "Sorry Beetlejuice. I know you're sad about me leaving in a few days, but I know you'll be okay."Beetlejuice pouts and chomps down on the bug.Lydia says as she continues to pack her backpack for the trip to California. She was wearing a black tank top with long, red, baggy pants. Her long hair had been putted up into a bun. Her body also changed. She was very pretty."It's not that babes. It's that that bone bag, spider and the monster across the street are going to bug me for an eternity!" Beetlejuice gags showing his purple striped tongue. Lydia giggles. Someone then knocks oh her door. It's Charles and Delia,"Oh! I'm going to miss you!" Delia says as she hugs Lydia, crying profusely. "It's okay Delia. I'll miss you too." Lydia responds. "You sure you got everything, pumpkin?" "Yea. Definitely dad." Charles tears up a little. "Our little pumpkin is all grown up. I hope you make a lot of friends in college, hun."
"I will dad."Lydia then hugs both of her parents
Beetlejuice felt a sense of sadness. His eyes welded up with tears. Once her parents left, he comes running up to her crying like a baby! "Don't go Lyds! I'll be alone again!" "Beetlejuice. I promise to call you once in a while." She calmly reassures him. Beetlejuice couldn't help but cry. "Y-you mean it babes?" He asks. Lydia nods. "Definitely Beetlejuice."
"Hey! How about we go to the neither world! One last time."
"You know what. That's a great idea!"
"You know the words, babes!"
"Though I know I should be wary. Still I venture somewhere scary. Ghostly haunting I turn lose!"
"Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice!"
~~~
Rain was crashing down. Blue and red lights flashed. Paramedics were helping people. Charles and Delia were talking to one of the paramedics, both in tears. Beetlejuice watched silently not being able to say or do anything. Tears formed in his eyes that are wide with fear.
It happened so fast. One minute Beetlejuice was hearing Lydia fighting with her parents, the next however he was watching someone being pulled away in an ambulance. His heart fell to his stomach,
"No. No no no NO NO NO!! LYDIA!!!" His screams echoed though the night. Only to be heard by him.
~~~
For the next few days, Lydia has been slowly recovering from the crash. Although no one really knew what happened. The police had questioned the person who was driving the car. He said that a deer, animal or the wet road made them crash.
Beetlejuice though was a different story. He was worried sick for her health. He regretted not being there at that time. After everything, he felt actually depressed about The whole thing.But then Lydia was founded to have a heart condition, it was pretty bad. It was like a virus, effecting some of her bone tissue but mainly her heart. they tried to help her, even Beetlejuice tried as well. It was no use however. "Beetlejuice. It's okay. I promise to see you in the neither world." Lydia said to Beetlejuice, who was kneeling on the side of her bed, crying his eyes out. For the next few days they tried to help her. It wasn't really okay for him to that, but he tried.
Yet the thread was becoming thin, little by little.
Until it snapped.
~~~
People gathered at the grave of Lydia Deetz, her classmates, friends, family members and other people came. As the priest was giving words to everyone.Clair looked as her other classmates. She was wearing a black dress, short white socks, black shoes and a black bow in her hair. Not really what she liked but that didn't matter. She felt bad for what she had done. All those times in middle and high school she picked on Lydia. She could never apologize to her, even now. She started to cry a little, her hand's gripping the end of her dress, her makeup beginning to smudge as she wipes her tears.

Deep below the surface.
Beetlejuice was sitting in the corner of his room. Ginger and Jacques look in sadness. "Beetlejuice? Are you okay?" Ginger asks timidly.

The air was thick with emptiness.

Beetlejuice sat at the corner, his eyes staring blankly at the wall. "Well if you need anything. Talk to us okay?" Ginger said as Jacques closed the door to Beetlejuice's room.A centipede crawls in front of Beetlejuice. He stares at it. He then grabs it and squishes it.

For strings are easy to cut.
Yet, it's harder to tie it back together.
But still.
It's worth a shot. Right?
