A/N : You don't have to read my Fireflies and Roses fic to understand these little drabbles. Just get that Shego's the beast, even though I repeatedly call her a guy in the fic. Okay, people?

Any ways, these, like the title says, are just deleted scenes. I typed these up a while back but I wasn't sure how to fit it in to the story. It's much easier than thinking up of an eleventh chapter. Gah... It's evil I swear it is. But I've finished typing chapter 12. I don't know how that works though. So I guess you can say I somewhat outlined chapter eleven... And somewhat typed it out...

Any ways, this drabble was meant to be somewhere between chapters 8 or 9, I think. To be like a turning point between Beauty and the Beast's relationship. But... I got rid of it. I hope everyone can settle with this until I'm finished with chapter eleven.

Fireflies and Roses

Deleted Scenes I

-x-x-x-x-

It was just an average sunny day outside. There wasn't much to do. Beast was busy reading a book, sitting on the bench. It was nice and quiet in his opinion. Not many birds chirping. That is, if there were any birds out there. Everything was perfect...Almost.

Beauty headed out of the kitchen. Her clothes were covered in flour as well as some other things better left unmentioned. It was a hazard, letting her in the kitchen. Always has been, always will be. Rosencrantz lay passed out near the stove after trying the batter of the cake she was trying to make. Remus carried her in his arms bridal style as he walked out of the kitchen, but slipped on some estrange banana peel that someone had unfortunately left there. So, the two children were on the floor, laying on their backs, clearly unconscious. Looking around the room, the children's well being weren't the only problem she had. There was batter on parts of the ceiling. Chocolate stalagmites dripped on the polished floors, staining them. Beauty moaned at all the trouble she had caused. This would take forever to clean up. She thought as she looked at the children. I'll carry them first... She went over to Rosen and carried her on her back. There was a couch in the living room that she could dump the children so she put them there.

She sighed as she looked around the estate for a broom and a dustpan and a mop... Just about anything that she could use to clean the mess. She turned back to the room with another heavy sigh as she started to mop up the mess.

Beast's stomach growled. I guess it's right about lunch time. He thought as he shut his book with a loud 'snap' sound. The beast stretched as he got up and sniffed the air. His Beast senses had allowed him the pleasure, or curse depending on the smell, of being able to sniff things at far distances. Something foul smelling was coming from his home. More importantly the kitchen. He sighed. "Beauty..." He muttered as he headed over to his house.

Beauty cleaned up most of the mess but the stalagmites were still there and the smell. The God awful smell. It was enough to kill a horse, in her opinion, not that she hated the animal of course. She covered her nose as she wondered why she had even bothered trying to cook a cake. The Beast's mother... She remembered. Beauty had wanted to cheer up the beast by making a cake in honor of her. Too bad she couldn't cook to save her life.

"Are you planning to destroy my kitchen?"

Beauty whirled around to where the voice had come from. The Beast stood there, by the door frame, the way he stood... It reminded her of a cat, or some large beast staring at his pray. Er, maybe that wasn't such a good metaphor. Beauty blushed when she realized that she was staring at him a little too long at both of their discomfort. "I wasn't trying to." She protested meekly.

"It was just a joke." Beast said with a sigh. He got the feeling that Beauty was still a bit weary around him. He wasn't sure entirely if it was just the form he was in or his 'charming' personality. "But, seriously, how did you get my kitchen to become a battle ground?"

Beauty blushed even more. She muttered a few words under her breath.

"What was that?" Beast asked.

"I. Can't. Cook." Beauty said with difficulty. It was hard for her to admit these sort of things to people. She was always so good at nearly everything she puts her mind to. Not being able to cook... It was like her Achilles' heel. Well, that and her pandaroo. If she lost that thing, she'd go nuts.

Beast chuckled at this. A woman that can't cook. Now there's a laugh. He thought as he walked up closer to Beauty and went down to her height. "You're not kidding." He asked.

She shook her head.

"Okay then," Silver sparks left from the Beast's feet, unnoticed by Beauty, and headed towards the ceiling. In a matter of seconds the mess was gone. "What did you want to make?" He asked her.

"A cake." Beauty answered honestly.

"A cake?" Beast looked at her curiously. She's serious. He thought. "What kind?"

"Chocolate."

Beast nodded and then got up to fetch the things they needed. "You only need a small amount of flour. At least, smaller than what you originally used." He said turning to Beauty with a bowl and spoon in his arms.

There's something sweet
And almost kind
But he was mean and he was coarse and unrefined
And now he's dear
And so I'm sure
I wonder why I didn't see it there before

Beauty blinked before she heard what Beast was saying. What was she thinking? The Beast was very graceful as he mixed the batter in the bowl. She couldn't only watch in amazement as the Beast stirred it quickly, in a way she'd never seen before. Half the time the batter wasn't even in the bowl. She reached out to grab another spoon, so she could help him also.

"Could I?" She asked cutely.

"Sure." Beast said as he caught all the batter back into the bowl without it spilling everywhere. He held it out to Beauty carefully. Beauty took it just as carefully, as she unknowingly placed her hand on his. It was like a static shock. The feeling that passed through them simultaneously. They looked at each other then, everything else around them when unnoticed for a moment. Even the two noisy children who snuck into the kitchen again. It was Beast's stomach that broke the moment. It was a good thing Beauty got a good grip on the bowl otherwise it would have fallen when Beast turned way.

He looked at his paws as he thought,

She glanced this way
I thought I saw
And when we touched she didn't shudder at my paw
No it can't be
I'll just ignore
But then she's never looked at me that way before

Beauty held on steadily to the bowl as she mixed it. She wasn't sure of what to make of the little 'incident' earlier. To which Beast had explained, he was just hungry. But that wasn't what she saw in his eyes just moments ago, was it? She shivered.

"Are you cold?" Beast asked, watching her intently.

"No. I'm fine." Beauty responded, as she began to mix more rapidly. The batter began to spill at least until she felt another hand / paw around hers, guiding it. She realized then that the Beast was standing behind her, lending his support. It was strangely comforting. She looked up at him.

New and a bit alarming
Who'd have ever thought that this could be?
True that he's no Prince Charming
But there's something in him that I simply didn't see

"Oh, do you want me to..."

"Is it alright now?" Beauty asked him.

"Uh... Yes."

"Would you like me to or would you?" Beast asked, looking over to the oven.

"I can do it." Beauty said.

"Are you sure?"

"I won't break it, I promise."

"Alright, Princess."

Over by the side, Remy and Rosen were watching them. Rosen smirked at the blond.

Well, who'd have thought?

Remy looked at them wide eyed.

Well, bless my soul.

Rosen came out of her hiding spot from behind the door frame and headed over to the den. There was no point in staying in the room now. If they stayed they would get in more trouble and possible cause a few problems.

Rosen looked over to Remy.

Well, who'd have known?

She told him almost haughtily. Remy merely replied with,

Well, who indeed?

Rosen smiled softly.

And who'd have guessed they'd come together on their own?

Remy looked a bit doubtful still.

It's so peculiar. Wait and see

Rosen agreed. It was too early to make any judgements yet. But, they were cooperating very well.

We'll wait and see

They gave each other a high five and let their fingers intertwine. Both of them touched foreheads with small smiles. Maybe soon they would be unaffected by the curse.

A few days more
There may be something there that wasn't there before

As they pulled apart, Rosen whispered in Remy's ear.

You know, perhaps there's something there that wasn't there before

Poor Remy turned red. He wondered what on earth she was implying before he realized that he was referring to Beauty and the Beast.

There may be something there that wasn't there before

He echoed back to her as he watched Rosen's figure disappear into the next room.

A/N : After the start of the song all the thoughts are lyrics and what both Rosen and Remy say are part of the lyrics too. These lyrics, like Kim Possible, belong to Disney, not me. Oh, the song is called, "Something There". I don't know who sings it other than Beauty and the Beast in the movie.
