Beej doesn't know what pink mean the first time his hair turns around Y/N. He's just got them with a bad joke that's got them busting a gut to the point of snorting then they pause and ask "What does pink mean?" "Huh?" "Your hair just went pink" he looks at himself in the mirror and he is indeed a soft shade of pink "...I don't know" Later he's talking to the Maitlands and they say "You know what most people associate with pink?" "I definitely want their pussy but I don't think I did right then"

What does pink mean

They/them pronouns, but mentions reader has a pussy once

What does pink mean?

Ever since lydia 'introduced' you to beetlejuice by locking you in the basement and you slugging ghoul in the jaw the two of you were joined at the hip, the ghoul eagerly moving in with you, not that you had much of a choice in the matter.

You've only known beetlejuice for a few weeks, but in that time you've noticed an odd quirk about the demon, well- odd wasnt the best word to describe it, more like interesting. You noticed that beetlejuice was a walking talking mood ring, his hair, and sometimes his suit would change from their default green to other colours fully depending on his mood.

Green was his default, a dull forest green, but it tended to brighten up to the point of glowing when he was excited or having fun, normally when he was scaring people.

Purple was a colour you hated on him, a colour that only graced his form when he was depressed, though it was a rarity to see.

Red, a red beetlejuice was a beetlejuice to he feared, anger, you've only seen a full blown fury red beetlejuice once, when he came back from a short trip to the netherworld, whatever happened he didnt want to talk about it.

There were times where youd see peaks of colours appearing in his hair, but it would never really come of anything, this whole mood ring thing was nice, a little cheat sheet to read this unpredictable born dead demon.

The mood ring hair thing was just another fun quirk of this demon who had worked his way into your heart, not that you told him or anything.

You have just came home form a rather short shift from work, beetlejuice, the second you walked in the door, had pulled you into a side hug, spearing no time in telling you about all the trouble he got into while you were doing basic breather things. You always enjoyed listening to his stories, he was always so enthusiastic he practically glowed electric green.

Though your conversation was cut short with a knock on the door, you thought nothing of it since you had a package due today.

Pulling away from the ghoul's grasp, though he grunts in protest, you open the door, and there was the mailman with your expect package.

He hands you the clipboard and you sign without a second thought, but as you hand the man his clipboard back beetlejuice pulled you back and jumps in front of you grabbing the board back, the ghoul skims the info and snorts

"Shipping prices, babes I cant believe you pay em, a guy can really lose his head over em" he cackles as his head rolls off his neck, landing in front of the mailman, who was frozen in place, colour drained from his face as he stared at the severed head that rested by his feet

"Mind giving a guy a hand?" Beetlejuice snorts a laugh, his body reaching for the mailman as his hands fall from his sleeves.

This image must have cracked the man's frozen spell as he screeches in horror at the sight

"Sorry buddy, I'm just falling apart in my old age" beetlejuice continues as his body collapses into a pile of broken body parts.

That must have been the straw that broke the camel's back, that final joke sent the mailman running from your home screaming, beetlejuice only laughs as his body reassembles, once back together he turns to you, you were stifling laughter this whole time, with a hand pressed over your mouth.

"So how was I babes?" He purrs, puffing his chest out, knowing damn well you were going to praise him

Knowing that the Coast was clear you remove you hand and let your laughter free, you were laughing so hard no sound was coming out for a moment, taking a second to calm down, you only go back to laughing, to the point of snorting and breathing out "I'm sorry, just give me a moment"

Your face was red and you were tearing up still trying to stop laughing, beetlejuice could only stare at you, he has NEVER made you laugh this hard before, he hasnt mad anyone laugh this hard before.

You bend forward and take a deep breath before standing up properly and wiping your eyes "I'm sorry beej that was- why is your hair pink?"

The demon only stared at you, still lost in awe of you laughter

"Beetlejuice?"

He snaps back

"What does pink mean?" You ask assuming he herd your first question

"Its a colour babes, how old are ya to not know your colours-" he snorts

"No, I mean your hair, why is it pink?"

The ghoul freezes for a second, pink?

Beetlejuice pulls a hand mirror from his jacket and examines his reflection, you were right, his hair, his beard, his moss and mold, all of it was a soft pink.

"Huh" was all he uttered running his fingers through his hair

"You alright?" You really werent sure what to do in this situation, but to offer help.

"For a dead guy? Couldnt be better baby cakes-" he flashes you a crooked smile

"So your hair?"

"Couldnt tell ya, it's never done that before" he mumbles examining his reflection, green slowly creeping back into his face.

You frown, worried for your dear friend.

"Well Bee, if it makes you feel better your performance with the mailman was hilarious" you give the ghoul a light pat on the back before scooping up you package and heading to the kitchen to open it.

If you would have stayed a moment longer you would have seen the pink return to his hair in full force.

...

"I dont get, I've been around forever, how do I not know what it means?! Its never been pink before" beetlejuice vented as he walked in circles in the attic of the Deetz home.

The ghoul didnt know who to turn to with this petty predicament, but the maitlands, the perfect little couple he could always come to for advice, or to just bother.

"You know what most people associate the colour pink with?" Barbara hints at, assuming beetlejuice would put two and two together. It was obvious to everyone once the ghoul recapped what happened when his hair changed.

"Okay babs, I definitely want their pussy, but I dont think i did right then"

"No, beetlejuice, you may have a crush on y/n" Adam groans

The ghoul pauses, staring at the couple, his hair slowly shifting back to pink

"Were you thinking about y/n?" Adam asks

"Holy crap" was all beetlejuice utters, a literal born dead demon straight from hell has a CRUSH on a little breather. The ghoul sits down taking this all in, he's liked others before, but why did you bring this on? Why were you different? Was it because you showed him kindness and treated him like a person? Never asking for anything in return but his company? The demon's mind was racing.

"Beetlejuice?"

The ghoul's snaps his head up looking st the couple

"What? I dont have a crush on y/n, come on, you guys know me, I'm a demon, we dont "fall in love", just because my days feel better being around them, and that I fantasize about knocking hips with them, and I the idea of y/n being intimate with anyone else makes me physically ill- but do I have a crush on them? Of course not" the ghoul babbles, the maitlands only look at each other, silently saying how hopeless beetlejuice was.

"Come on guys, it's probably something else, I'll go ask Chucky and what's her name-" beetlejuice grumbles waving off the maitlands as he heads to leave the attic, but before he could reach the door knob he vanishes in a puff of green smoke.

Barbara let's out a heavy sigh "he's hopeless" adam nods in agreement

...

"-see ya- ?!" Beetlejuice reappears in your living room, for a moment baffled, his eyes darting around the room until focusing on you, spots of pink reappearing in his hair, bad timing.

"Babes! What a pleasant surprise" he laughs smoothing his hair back, hoping to remove the budding of pink streaks

"Surpise? Beej it's our movie night, we planned this days ago, did you forget?"

He did

"Course not hot stuff, would I lie to you?~" the ghoul quickly pulls you into a side hug, squishing his face against yours hoping to fluster you in Hope's of getting off the hook, god slash satan he could feel how warm your skin was, hell he could hear your heart pounding, what a beautiful sound.

"Ah!" You pull away from the demon "right- your hair is pink again, you alright?"

"What?!" Beetlejuice shouts pulling his hand mirror back out from his coat examining his face "again?! God slash satan those nerds were right fuck?!"

"About what?" You ask softly

Beetlejuice stops his ranting, forgetting you were still here, he glances at you for just a second before snapping his fingers and vanishing, leaving you baffled.

Beetlejuice reappears on the roof of your home, away from prying eyes and far from your ears.

The ghoul pulls at his hair and screams, hints of red mixing with the pink "I've had more affairs, flings, and one night stands then anyone and it's never turned pink before!... It's never been pink before...." his tantrum boils down, as fast as it started, beetlejuice walks to the edge of the roof and sits.

"Its never been pink before...." he breathes out clutching his chest

It was love, not lust, he loved you, an emotion he didnt think he had.

Beetlejuice drops his face in his hands and screams, embarrassed with himself, he was a monster not some giggling love sick school girl, hell, what would you think if he told you? No way a pretty little breather like you would feel the same about a rotten corpse, beetlejuice sighs pink now shifting to purple.

He could've stayed up on the roof for an eternity, but you were waiting for him, probably, with the snap of his fingers beetlejuice hides his hair under an old black hat that said guide across the front, and eith another snap he reappeared in your living room, you were sitting on the couch playing with your phone.

"Beetlejuice!" You jump up, surprised at his return "welcome home, you okay? You seemed pretty mad when you left"

The ghoul grits his teeth, he could feel the pink crawling back into his hair, you had no idea what you were doing to him, welcome home? Genuinely caring about his well being? You were an absolute master at seduction, well, at least to this lonely ghost.

"Dont worry about babes, dead guy stuff" beetlejuice shrugs, you frown at his awsner "how bout you and your favourite ghost curl up, watch some crappy movies, and stuff our faces huh? Sounds like a plan?"

"Sure, if you're feeling up to it"

Again with the concern, you were killing him

"Alright sugar, park that cute rump on the sofa-"

"You're really laying it on thick tonight huh bee?" You give a soft laugh, it was true, the ghoul was trying to flirt with you to get you to forget about his little freak out, but to also soften you up so he could worm his way into your heart.

"Can you blame me hot stuff? So let's get this movie night rolling" he claps his hands and in a flash the two of you were on the couch, you snuggled up against him holding a bowl of popcorn, and the tv now on loading the dvd of his choice.

"I like your hat" was the last thing you said before the movie started

This whole crush thing is gonna be the death of him.

Bonus

"So did you figure out what pink ment?" You ask the next morning as you set up the kettle to make your first coffee of the day

"Oh, right- turns out it means I'm comfortable" he snorts

"Comfortable?"

"Come on babes, ya know when a cat shows you its belly, it means its comfortable with its surroundings, same goes for me" he shrugs "turns out I've never felt that way before in my after life, funny ain't it?" He laughs

"Oh" you couldnt help but feel a tad bad about how hes never felt comfortable with someone else "well, I'm glad you're happy here with me beetlejuice, I like hanging out with you" you give the demon a soft smile, in a flash his hair blooms pink, you couldnt help but chuckle at how fast it changed

...

Beetlejuice didnt mind lying about this to you, you didnt need to know the truth yet...
