Imagine: Beetlejuice x gender neutral reader
Scene: Beetlejuice is trying to ask S/O to Marry him
Your fingers wrap around the small handle of the microwave, pulling open the only slightly bigger door. A small smile lifts up onto your lips as you take in the scent of buttery goodness. You see, tonight was movie night with your boyfriend, Beetlejuice. And finally, you were watching something other than The Exorcist, which was a relief by the way. I mean, its not a bad movie or anything, it's just... You'd think twenty times is enough.
"Hey Beej! Get the covers ready!"
Placing the bag, that was in the miniature oven, onto the counter, you reach up into an cabinet to pull down a bowl. I mean, even though Beetle probably wasn't going to eat the popcorn, you wanted to give enough hand room in case he decided he wanted to try something that didn't crawl.
"Already did B-Babes!"
Was that, a stutter? Curiosity flickers through your mind as you snatch up the bowl, poking your head out from behind the kitchen walls. Seeing your cute boy stare down at his palms, back slouched, and his hair tips becoming tented in blue and purple, you honestly though that something took a turn for the worse.
"Oh... Shit BJ whats wrong?"
In an instance, the man looked up, eyes wide and hair flickering to a sick yellow. He choked up, hands fumbling to hide the item in his palms.
Only for a box to fall. A small, square, black box, printed with small, tiny green beetles.
A box only big enough to fit a... A...
"Oh... Oh god... Beej?"
The popcorn bowl dropped, and his hair was quick to turn black, something you had seen only a few times, but knew it wasn't usually a good meaning. Tears slip up into your eyes, though rather, they were flooding in because of pure happiness.
"Is that a..?"
"I-I... I k-know you don't want to... You know... Hah... Get hitched to me... It's okay babes... Just forget it-"
"Yes."
There was a pause between both of you. No, only he was silent. The answer was genuine, he had just been, shocked. So shocked, that a sob had slipped past his pale lips. He'd never have thought someone as perfect as you would say yes...
You quickly stumbled forward, taking him up in your slightly trembling arms. He leaned into you, shoving his head into your neck to hide his coming on, oddly tinted tears.
"O-Oh B-babes I-I... I-I lo-love you so much..."
"I know Beej... I know."
