Time passed since the two had kissed and neither of them said a thing — Allison had begun to sleep in her bedroom again leaving BJ downstairs in his humble abode. The two rarely spoke to one another and it was evident it was eating the two up inside — especially Beej. Since he was bound to her, it hurt having her leave him to go upstairs and away from him, like his soul was getting sucked out of him (and not in the good way). Lydia and everyone else in the household noticed how the two were acting and it brought a damper to everyone's moods.

No one knew what had occurred that day so they were thinking it was just an argument or that they had grown apart. Truth was Allison ached to be with Beetlejuice without having to sign the contract — she had very strong feelings for him now and with how dead she was becoming she wanted to confess before she died of a broken heart instead of this Neitherworld contract. For the past few days she had begun to lose her appetite and her sleep schedule was all over the place. Time was moving fast for her and before she knew it, she was really dead.

─── ･ ｡ﾟ☆: *.☽ .* :☆ﾟ. ───

Beetlejuice looked like he hadn't been eating — all of his saved up roaches and spiders all gone to waste — he laid in bed doing nothing which was unusual for him. Lydia had realized soon enough that something was up with the two — they didn't act like how they first did — maybe she had been wrong about this. Allison had been wearing more black than usual, barely showing her face anymore — she couldn't tell anyone she just couldn't.

Well, she actually could tell someone. The ghost with the most!

It had to be around three in the morning when Allison creeped downstairs and towards Beej's room — she wore a nightgown that covered her deathly pale skin. Her hair was black and covered some of her face. She stared at the old wooden door before she gave it a slight push — it opened up, revealing Beetlejuice to her. Her heart sunk right when she saw him. The dead man moved his head and saw her — he grinned weakly, "Hiya babes." Allison rushed over to him and placed her hands on his chest, "Oh Beej, I'm so sorry for making you like this."

He shrugged, "I'm in high spirits, don't worry." Allison looked at him and it was clear he was entranced by her beauty — "What is it? Is something wrong?" Allison asked and BJ shook his head, "Nothing's wrong — you're just as beautiful dead." He whispered making Allison shy away, some color coming back to her face as she blushed. "I shouldn't have left you alone — ignored you. I was just scared that, that kiss would ruin things — make the whole contract all out of sorts." Beetlejuice shook his head.

"Fuck the contract." He sat up and grabbed Allison's hands, "I can't believe I'm sayin' this babes but — I love you. Never thought I'd say that cause even during my first marriage it was all suck and fuck if y'know what I mean." Allison furrowed her brows — Beej's eyes slightly widened in horror at his mistake in words, "I meant nothin' by that babes. The point is," he cleared his throat, "Allison Deetz, I love you, never thought I'd actually say that but, there's a first for everything." He chuckled — Allison couldn't help but have a small smile on her face.

She sighed, "That's a relief. I've been scared to confess to you my own feelings because I didn't even know if you loved me back. But Beetle-" BJ held a hand up, "You don't have to say my name babes." Allison grinned, "Beej, I love you." She leaned in and kissed him — as she did — the color came back into Beej, the green in his hair and moss, the purple around his eyes, the black stripes in his suit. It all came back to him — he jumped right out of bed with a howl of joy making Allison gasp before laughing.

The ghost with the most grabbed her and began waltzing with her, "I've never felt so alive! You've tamed this wild demon as your own babes. You know what I'm thinking?" Allison grinned as she shook her head, "Neitherworld wedding!" Quickly, Beej spun the two of them around and the two were now in a wedding dress and suit. Allison's dress was a mix of purples and greens — a black and white striped corset around her waist — she noticed the bright green and shiny beetles crawling on her dress. In any other situation she would've screamed in terror but instead she looked at Beej and kissed him, "You know how to charm a woman don't you?"

Beej intertwined their arms, "Just you babes." The wedding march began to play and an altar took shape across the room — an undead priest came out holding a bible. "What'll it mean after we do this?" Allison questioned and Beej looked at her, "It means we'll be spending our undead lives together for the rest of eternity." The two reached the priest and turned to each other before quickly exchanging their vows, "You may now kiss the bride." The priest said making Beej wave him off, "Yeah, yeah padre. You should probably leave now — wouldn't want you to see my wife all indecent." He grinned and both the priest and altar went away.

Allison looked down and say she now had the ring from the first wedding and the new ring on her finger. The first one was a plain black band while the new one was a silver spider encrusted with a blood stone — it was Beej's blood. "You'll always have a piece of me with you now babes." He held his own hand up and Allison saw he wore one just like hers. Allison grinned before gasping as BJ picked her up and brought her to the bed. "I've been waiting for this." Beej chuckled, "And I know these sick readers have been too."

Before Allison could respond to Beej — telling him to not break the fourth wall — he ripped her dress off revealing lingerie underneath which was see through with sewn in beetles and spiders in the fabric. The man began salivating, "You're not gonna be able to walk tomorrow babes." Allison shrugged, "I don't have a problem with that." The two began to laugh before lightning struck. Tonight would be one of romance and passion along with terror.

It was going to be perfect.
