A/N: It's been a long while since I wrote anything for Ben 10 but this idea just popped into my head and so here it is! Enjoy!
"Come on Jules, can I open my eyes now?" I asked, sort of whining, my eyes shut tight.
"Not yet! Give me a couple more minutes!" Julie's voice drifted down the hall from her bedroom to the living room where I was right now. I groaned and leaned back into the couch, keeping my eyes shut tight. Julie had been eager to show me something ever since school started today. She practically dragged me over to her house when the bell to end seventh period rang.
So here I was waiting patiently for her to show me whatever the heck it was she wanted to show me for about… an hour and ten minutes. Or at least that's what it felt like to me. All I knew was that I was bored and painfully curious about what was so amazing that she absolutely couldn't wait to show me.
"Okay ready~!" came her voice again, this time sounding more pleased than annoyed, and it was accompanied by rapid footsteps that hurried into the living room. "Okay, open your eyes!"
My eyes snapped open and when I saw Julie, they nearly popped out of their sockets: She looked beautiful. Her now long ebony hair was tied up in a sort of bun with only a few locks of hair dangling around her face. A beautiful sakura flower was the only decoration in her hair but it affected the way she was dressed. Remembering what she told me about her Japanese culture, I assumed that this was a yukata, a traditional kimono worn by the Japanese during celebrations. And my God it was amazing on her.
The main color of the yukata was pink but the trim of the sleeves, opening, the bottom of the yukata, and obi were a light green and the print on the yukata was of cherry blossoms. Her make-up was light but it was great on her pale, fair skin.
It took me a few seconds to get my bearings as I just stared at her. But when she walked over to the couch and sat beside me, I snapped out of my stupor and turned to her, a smile growing on my face.
"D-do you like it, Ben-kun?" she asked, a blush growing on her cheeks as I continued to smile at her.
Gently, I pulled her onto my lap and wrapped my arms around her. "Julie," I said, gently brushing her hair out of her beautiful brown eyes. "How to you say 'princess' in Japanese?"
She blinked at me, a blush still a pale pink on her cheeks, and said, "Kotaishihi."
Smiling widely, I kissed her forehead and said, "You're beautiful, my lovely Kotaishihi."
At that she blushed redder than my cousin's hair. At that's red believe me.
A/N: I thought that I should include Julie's culture in this chater and I hoped I described everything and translated accurately. If I did not, I take constructive critisism well and I don't mind being corrected. Please review!
