This ask hit me in the fluff feels and I may have written a drabble for it 😳

I just love the rockstar boy so much !!

"Don't go anywhere alright?" 

You couldn't help the sympathetic hum that escaped you as you grabbed Beetlejuice's hand tightly. Your rockstar boyfriend was currently lounging back in a rather comfy looking leather chair wearing the most worried expression you had ever seen on him. 

He had convinced you to come with you to his regular tattoo shop. You thought he'd be getting a new tattoo - one he had been rather excited while designing - but you were surprised to find that Beej had instead decided to get a new piercing. 

Beetlejuice hadn't told you exactly what he was getting but he did say he wanted you to be there with him. 

It turned out the rockstar was particularly squeamish when it came to getting piercings. 

"Don't worry, Bug, I'll stay right here," you reassured, smiling gently and patting his hand. Beej smiled back shakily, and closed his eyes to prepare. 

His hand flexed around yours nervously every few seconds. You played with the rings on his fingers and stroked the top of his hand lightly with your thumb. 

"What gets you so nervous about this, Beej?" You asked, curious. Beetlejuice opened his eyes to look at you and stroked your hand back. 

"No clue really," he muttered,"just something about it…" 

His shoulders hunched to his ears and he hivered. You nodded, gripping his hand tighter. 

"You do have a lot of piercings though," you pointed out. Beej was always proud to show them off, his eyebrow and ears were the most noticeable. He had two hoops and a bar in each ear, and you knew those were pretty painful ones, "how'd you get those ones done?" 

"Oh those," he chuckled,"I got them when I was first starting out. I got my ears done first, thought they looked badass." 

Beetlejuice fiddled with one of the hoops,"I was petrified cause I got it done by myself, I used to carry around this old worm plush and i practically busted its seams gripping it while I got my ears done." 

You giggled, letting go of his hand to cover your mouth a bit. You saw Beej flush, his hair streaking light pink with embarrassment. 

"Yea, it was pretty fuckin' dorky of me," he mutter, chuckling slightly. You shook your head, grabbing his hand again and leaning to kiss his cheek. His hair flushed a deeper pink in response. 

"I'm not laughing at you, babe" you assured with a smile,"I'm laughing cause the image of a younger you holding a plush for comfort is just too adorable!" 

Beetlejuice looked at you shocked and grinned lopsided, curling his fingers around yours tightly. 

"Your idea of adorable is really weird, doll." 

"Yeah, well," you shrugged, cupping your unoccupied hand against your cheek and leaning against it ,"I can't help but think everything about you is cute, Bug." 

The rockstar raised the hand he had gripped in his and planted a kiss on it. Beetlejuice gave you another of his signature grins. 

"I can say this though, Babes," you raised an eyebrow at his flirtatious tone, a blush dusting your cheeks. He noticed your blush and smirked, leaning closer to you so that you two were almost nose to nose. 

I'm a soft bitch and this is a huge mood anon lmao

--

You had been feeling lonely for awhile, no particular reason for it, it was just one of those moods

Grabbing a blanket you often used for comfort, you wrapped it around your shoulders tightly, the edge brushing against your ankles, you grip the edges tightly to ground yourself

You shuffled through your place aimlessly, not searching for anything in particular

Just keeping busy to not focus on the cold feeling in your chest

You explored almost everywhere, so you turned to go to your living area

Maybe a bit of TV could help, you mused. You had just entered the room, pausing briefly, you were shocked to see Beej on your sofa

Your demonic other half wasn't suppose to be around for a while, having ghostly things to attend to you figured

But here he was, resting on your couch fiddling with what looked like a puzzle toy, you guessed Lydia gave it to him to keep him busy

Beetlejuice hadn't noticed you yet, eyes fixed on the puzzle intently, looking completely relaxed and focus

You shuffled your feet, you really wanted to go press against your boyfriend, wanting to be rid of the loneliness that had reared its head, but you also didn't want to bother Beej when he seemed to be having alone time

You huffed, making up your mind, you quietly make your way over to the demon. Studying the space next to Beej for a minuet before promptly plopping yourself in the settle and quickly curling into his side

Pressing your face into his arm, you breathe in his comforting scent of moss, death and dirt as you feel him startle slightly

Beetlejuice looks over at you, his eyes focusing before his face splits into a big grin, stripes of pink appearing amongst the green of hair

"Babes ! Didn't notice you there," he presses closer to you, placing the puzzle toy on a nearby table, turning all his attention to you.

You mumble a hello, shuffling as close you can get to the ghost, Beej raises an eyebrow, confused by your silence

"Missed me that much, huh?" He smirked, you usually fired a comeback whenever he teased you. Though this time, you just nodded and smiled at him gently.

"Yeah, I missed you a lot, Beej" He blushed slightly, the genuine response throwing him for a loop. He cleared his throat slightly and turned more towards you, you took the opportunity to move and press your self into his side

"You alright there? You ain't coming down with one of those sicknesses you breathers get, right?" The worried tone he had made you huff, amused you shook your head.

"No, Beetlejuice, I'm not getting sick," pulling your legs up so you could curl fully under your blanket, you shifted slightly to look up at the demon, "just want to be close to you today"

The ghost blinks surprised, before something seems to click. Beej gives you a gentle smile and wraps an arm around your shoulder. Pulling you close, he turns so that he's laid across the couch, he pulls gently and positions you so that your spread out on top of him. Your head resting on his chest.

You sigh content, cuddling against the demon, you spread the blanket around the both of you

Beetlejuice grabs your hand, lacing your fingers together and plants a kiss to your forehead.

Whoop ! I finally finished it !!

Woof, this is the first time I've taken a shot at writing something fandom related in like 5-6 years aha. I'm proud with how it came out and I hope y'all like it too !

I may write more eventually ;v;

-----------

You groan, flopping face down to your bed. Your head was pounding, every little noise and light seeming too much for your senses.

You had no clue when you could have gotten sick. All the errands and tasks you've these past few days had you running all over town. It was any guess where the malicious germs had invadod your once perfectly non-sick body.

you sigh, shifting around, pulling the blanket from out from underneath you. Resigning yourself to spending the next few days in bed, you cuddle up and bunker down.

You were just drifting off into a nap when-

"Hey, Babes! What're you doing lazing about so early?" you jump up quicky, wincing slightly at the sharp pain in your head the action causes. You glance up to meet eyes with your ghostly boyfriend, Beetlejuice.

The apparent Ghost with the Most was lounging ratherly comfortably in the air. Floating a few feet above your bed, Beetlejuice grinned down at you, his arms were folded behinde his head and his legs were crossed as he leant back against nothing.

You can't help but smile softly at the demon.

"Hey, Beej," You greet him softly. Your voice comes out strained and raspier than normal. Beetlejuice raises an eyebrow, lowering himself to get a better look at your face. "what have you been up to these few days?"

"Eh same old, same old," He waves off, you pat the spot next to you and he takes the invitaion. Dropping right out of the air onto your bed,"Bunch of dead boring losers needing some equally borning breathers out of their hair, nothing yours truly couldn't handle, babes."

He throws a wink your way and you giggle, the laugh causes a tickle to build up in the back of your throat. You cover your mouth, taking a few minuets as the tickle turns into a coughing fit. The hacking lasts for a few minuets, you feel Beetlejuice pat your back gently as you try to catch your breath between the coughs. You wheeze, your shoulders heaving and body shaking. The coughing seemed to sap the little energy you had left.

You sigh and look up at your boyfriend.

"Thanks, Beej," You grin tiredly at the demon. Beetlejuice nods, you take notice of his expression, his brow was pinched with concern and there were a few blonde strands of worry at his temples. Lifting your hand, you brush at the strands gently, he nudges into your palm, looking at you softly. Beetlejuice always acted so sweet when you two had a moment alone. He was always sweet towards you, though there was something special about the more calm sweetness he showed when it was just the two of you.

You give him a reassuring look and brush the miscolored strands again,"I'm alright, bug, it's just a little flu"

"Doesn't sound like such a little one to me, doll" Beetlejuice grumbled,"a little cold can turn into a big cold, and those can kill fragil breathers like you"

You pat the spot next to you, beckoning the demon to come closer. He carefully shifts himself into position and you snuggle up into his side. Beetlejuice immediately wraps an arm around your waist and pulls you closer.

"I promise this cold won't kill me, Beej, It'll last a few days at most," You hear him grumble again, and you pat his hand gently. There wasn't anything you really could do to speed up the process, but you did feel slightly bad that Beetlejuice was worrying so much over you. You knew he was just concerned for you. He always seemed to worry over you dying or leaving.

A shiver racks through your body, you sniffle and yawn slightly. You feel Beetlejuice's arm slither away from your waist and felt him move away from you, before you can question as to where he's going, a sudden warm weight falls upon you. You jolt and look down, there was about three blankets wrapped firmly around you. They were all varying shades of green, very on brand for the demon that had been sitting next to you, one even had black stripes as a pattern. They were surprisingly soft and kind of smelled like him, very earthy with a hint of something you couldn't quiet name.

"There you go,babes," Beetlejuice proudly declared. You stopped staring in awe at your new layers to look up at your ghostly boyfriend. You were surprised to see him balancing on his knees, his arms were filled with various miscellaneous items, all for battling your current cold. The demon had grabbed the blankets, tissues, a bottle of juice, comfort snacks, and some medicine. He even had grabbed you some soup which was floating precauriously in the air.

"The perfect ingredients to get you all better and back to your bouncing beautiful self," His chest was puffed proudly as he showed off all the things he had grabbed.

You couldn’t help the grin that spread across your face, it was so wide that your cheeks began to ache and you couldn’t contain the urge to fiercely hug your ghost. Beetlejuice somehow looked prouder as you all but tackled him in a tight embrace. A blush spread across his face as his hair flushed a mixture of neon green happiness and bright pink contentness. You pulled back to look him in the eye, his face and hair flushing more deeply as you planted a big kiss to his cheek.

"This is so sweet and precious and caring, Beej! I just....," you pause, cuddling up closely to Beetlejuice, closing your eyes at the flood of gratitude and warmth at the moment to continue. His arms wrap around you, using his ghostly powers to settle the flu weapons on your desk, and pulling the blankets around both of you. Beetlejuice lays you both down on the bed, facing one another as you both wrap yourselves around each other.  

You open your eyes, Beetlejuice was smiling a big dopey smile at you and you couldn't help but smile back at him, equally as loopy. You place a small smooch to the tip of his nose, and snuggle down into his chest.

"I'm so glad that you're here," you whisper, you feel him place a kiss to your forehead and feel him cuddle you closer.

"I'll be here for as long as ya want me, Babes," He kisses your forehead again, settling against you,"I love you to much to let some cold make you suffer"

You giggle.

Rockstar!Beetlejuice Headcanons ! 🎸🎤

Pretty much v similar to Musical Beej, though a bit more suave/smooth like outer wise

Band primarily plays punk rock music, taking advantage of Beej's scratchy/gruff vocals

Writes his own lyrics

Dabbles in other genres of music vocally, though he loves his hard hitting punk rock, smoother jams are also to his taste

Can play the ukulele , but he's lowkey embarrassed how good he is at it so he sticks to playing his electric guitar

His guitar is a custom model and has a paint job he designed. White trim and base coat, with alternating black stripes and green detailing make his instrument a real beauty

Bands name is The Sandworm Devors, he thought it was a kickass name and adores it to bits

Hair is still a mood ring, though the colored part is less pronounced in his hair than his musical counterpart.

They're more like fully dyed tips that too a bit farther and a good chunk of black is the rest

Takes complete advantage of how he looks, knows his fans adore how he presents himself and acts like a flirty fool to rile them up during shows

Loves meeting fans too ! Confidence booster when ya have lots of people hanging off what you say

Doesn't really do morning shows, is a complete hater of the sun and prefers his night time concerts completely

Wears mainly striped and/or black shirts, often paired with striped tight pants or black ripped ones if his mood is down for it

Also likes wear sleeveless shirts to show off his guns

Black slightly platformed punk boots are his favorite too, gives him a more lurching nature and makes him look more intimidating

Has natural eye bags, though he also wears some black eye shadow under/around his eyes and eyelids to give a more dramatic look to them

Piercings, all the piercings, one in his left eyebrow, a few in his ears. And those are only the ones you could see when he's out and about c;

Has the same insecurities as musical Beej though he covers them up a bit more. Though his hair gives him away

Stalks off and sulks when in a bad mood, playing his guitar or just walking around to burn off his energy

Probably smokes, its not going to kill him, might as well

You could feel the stress in your shoulders as you walked through the door of your place

The work shift had not been kind to you at all, from asshole costumers to absolutely grating coworkers, you could feel a headache building in your temples.

You kicked off your shoes, heading to your bedroom to shed off your uniform, and just try to relax, your hands were shaking as you pulled on more comfortable clothing. Your nerves were completely shot.

You move from your room to your living area, plopping down on the couch you curl your knees to your chest. Resting your cheek against your knees, you grip your pants and breathe deeply.

You try to stave off the tears, your frustration and stress mounting.

"Hey, Babes ! Lydia found this cool thing in Babs and Adams attic and - oh"

You jump at the sudden voice, head whipping up to spot Beetlejuice standing at the other side of the couch. You wince as your head pounds, but you focus on your ghostly boyfriend.

He's staring at you in concern, streaks of yellow mixing in with the green of his hair.

"Uh...you alright there babes? You look like hell" You look away from him and swallow around a dry throat.

"I-I'm..." You croak out, you can feel the tears and all the horrible feelings building, and you look at the demon again. Your lip trembles, ".....B-beetlejuice..?"

Beej rushes over to you immediately, the unasked question worrying him further, with out prompting he wraps his arms around you and you collapse into his hold.

Finally the tears come, and you sob as he hushes you and rubs your back gently. You vent about all of your frustrations over your job and he listens to all of it.

He can't exactly relate, but he does his best to listen and make you feel valid in your thoughts and stress.

Ohohoho anon, you're coming after my fluff loving heart !

You and Beetlejuice have been dating for a while, and hes absolutely adoring over you

All your cute mannerisms, and rather shy nature has the boy absolutely smitten

Beetlejuice has even tried to convince you to come up on stage with him sometime, mostly cause he wants to show you off, but also to show people how awesome you are !

you've declined every time

Of course he pouts about it, but ultimately understands if your a bit stage shy

Or that your refusing is cause you're completely lacking in the musical department

Either way he's fine with his babes just chilling with him on his tours, he's just happy you're here with him

It was on one tour that he found out about your little secret

He had finished a show early, going to the green room set up for him and you, to relax a bit before the next performance

As he's going to the room, he pauses, hearing one of his songs playing

Beetlejuice creeps closer and notices an damn near angelic voice absolutely belting as passionately as they can

The rock star acts all sneaky like, pushing open the door to see you with your back to him

Your swaying back and forth to the beat of the song, matching the vocals on point, even hitting the gruffer more growly bits near perfectly

And damn, does he fall in love with you 1000x more then and there

"Holy shit, Babe!"

You jump, startled and whip around to see him with the biggest grin on his face, there are literal stars in his eyes

Realizing he heard you sing, you blush and cover your face, you weren't exactly confident in your voice and knowing your Rock star boyfriend heard you

Well...you wanted the floor to open up and swallow you whole

You feel hands gently pull yours from where they're firmly placed over your face, you look up to see a nice blush settled on your boyfriends cheeks, and still wearing that giant grin

"Why didn't you tell me you can sing like that?" He asks,"you sound like a god damn angel !"

You mumble out an explanation, telling him of your self consciousness over your voice and other people hearing you sing

Beej is confused initially, but hey, self esteem is always a tricky thing, and he absolutely makes sure to compliment your voice any chance he gets

And those moments of you singing just for him?

Catch him absolutely melting and going absolutely gooey for his Babes beautiful voice

I got bored a few days ago and wrote some stuff down for this au cause I'm invested lol

This is mostly just basic notes for designs and what this au is, most of it is subject to change, but I hope it sounds alright so far !

Dating JJ Headcanons ! 

If you tell him you're interested in him, JJ straight away would be like "Ohoho really ;) ;)", when you clarify you mean romantically the boy becomes a flustered mess. 

He isnt used to people liking him for him, besides his close friends, and hearing youd like to be with him that way would totally throw him for a loop 

He'd tentatively accept, and once you start dating whooo boy 

Theres so much affection!! Like seriously, if you're comfy with it and give him the okay, he'll shower you with physical affection. 

Determined to please you in any way you want. He would definitely try to spoil you. 

Would be kind of nervous about missteps and be looking for assurance for major things. He would need to know that you're okay with certain stuff and look to you for approval

Is kind of embarrassed over his neediness so tackle hug him and give him affection and all his doubts disappear

Honestly hes so soft, it's like dating a sugar cube lol 

Adores pet names, will use a ton on you and melts if you use them on him. 

Would be hesitant about starting anything risque. He would need you to take the lead and assure him that you love him for more than his incubus stuff. 

Playing with his horns or tail makes him turn to jelly, will curl up in your lap and purr. He might just nap on your thighs and demand you sleep too while cuddling you close. 

He's a party dude ! Would take you with him to Fie's club (if that's your thing) and treat you to an absolute rocking time dancing and drinking ! 

Can be a bit jealous, he won't really admit it, feeling bad about it, so you have to coax it outta him. 

He has trouble talking about his more icky feelings, but will always be there for you to listen and help you work through your own problems. 

Hates arguing, yelling and fighting. Will avoid it, especially with you since he doesn't want to hurt you in any way. He'd rather just calmly and try to resolve the issue.
