Thank you again Mumz and MK08 and the anonymous reviewer for your reviews :D here is another chapter ^^ My apologies for it being so late, kept getting an error for uploading the new chapter.
Big dreams, too fast
The sun was setting as Bra headed back to meet the others, the smell of delicious food permeated the air, suddenly reminding her she hadn't eaten anything at all today. Walking down the brick path, the words from her father and Goku's conversation were still on her mind; leaving the girl wondering why her father would even set her up to fight Goten.
'He must believe in me a lot, to think that I could come close to defeating him.'
A sly smile curved on her lips,
'Not like I'd give up this chance to beat him up, he deserves it for all the antics he's been pulling.' She knew she wanted to fight the youngest son of Kakarot, but it was obvious that he was a lot stronger than her.
'I hope he slacks off and gets lazy, that way I'll have a good chance to land some hits on him.' Her mind contemplating techniques and vantage points, she picked up several plates and began to ladle food into them. The charcoal smell of meat cooking on the grill made her pick up a full plate of the barbecued goodies. Bowls of salad and fruit rounded up her meal; she sat at a table by herself with her small feast.
'This is so much food, but I can eat it all! It's time for me to start training like a Saiyan!' Her mind determined to give Goten the beating of his life. She was fueled by all the annoying things he did to her,
'Telling complete strangers I'm married to him, and pregnant!' She stabbed the lettuce leaves with her fork,
'Saying he's the only man that can control me.' She eyed the burger on her plate,
'Always acting macho, like I'm some defenseless little girl.' The girl took a big bite now, chewing her food. If there was anything her parents both shared in common; it was steel willed determination. The trait was apparent in their daughter as she hungrily scarfed down her only meal of the day, angry thoughts still in her mind about the task at hand. She was so focused on the visions in her head she didn't notice several people around her as she chowed down.
"Wow Bra, you sure can eat a lot! Almost as much as Trunks," she heard Marron laugh. The half Saiyan girl looked up to see her friend there with a piece of pie in her hand.
"Want to try some of this? It's nearly finished, I was wondering if you got a piece. You like apple pie, right?" She placed the plate down next to the empty bowl of fruit salad.
"Thanks, Marron! It looks great." The blue eyed girl told her friend while patting her stomach.
"I can't believe I ate all that."
"I've never seen a girl eat so much," Paris abruptly said, sitting down next to Bra.
"Better hope you don't get fat." She thought aloud.
'Ugh, I wonder if she says these things on purpose!' Bra eyed the girl but said nothing.
"I wanted to say goodbye to you two before I left." Paris suddenly started, she was tracing her finger in small circles on the table.
"My high school is having a reunion next week, we're going on a cruise ship!"
The brunette told them happily.
"I can't wait to see all my old friends, I've missed them a lot." The girl in yellow began to giggle, a blush creeping on her cheeks.
'She won't be here? Is Goten leaving too?' Bra wondered.
"Lucky, I want to go on a cruise too!" Marron whined.
"Is Goten going with you?" Was all Bra could ask.
"Nope." Paris shook her head.
"He's going to miss me so much, but I told him I'll call him everyday!"
She informed the two girls, then quickly stood up,
"I have to go home and pack right away." She said with glistening eyes,
"It was a great party, I'll see you guys in two weeks!" She bid farewell and walked off towards the side exit of the house.
"She sure was in a big hurry." Bra blinked.
"Yeah, I hope she doesn't get lost out at sea," Marron chuckled.
"Makes me wonder what Goten and her talk about." The turquoise haired girl mused.
"Well, they've only been together for 3 months now, I think."
"Really? That's not too long."
"Yeah I know, but he likes her a lot." Marron cast her eyes over at the dark haired half Saiyan, he was over by the fountain talking with his father.
Bra looked over at the boy now too,
'If only I met you 3 months ago, maybe I would've had a chance.'
Goten must have noticed their eyes upon him, soon enough he came strolling over to their table.
"Hello ladies." He sat down near Marron and across from Bra. His eyes lowered down to the plate of pie Marron had brought over. The sweet smell of sugar, apple and cinnamon enticed him. That tender, flaky crust made his mouth water. The delicious filling oozing slightly from the sides and onto the plate made his eyes light up.
"PIE!" He was about to take the plate, but a fork suddenly pricked on top of his hand.
He looked over at the fork poking his hand, the owner of it happened to be the girl across from him.
"I know I taste good, Bra." He winked at her.
"I'm not so sure about that, Goten." She rolled her eyes.
"I'll give you a taste if you want," Butterflies fluttered in her stomach as he said this,
'Is he flirting with me?' Thoughts now running rampant through her head...
'Why don't I just call him out on it then! It's what I want anyway!'
Her heart grew anxious in her chest, she had never been so forward with a boy before.
"Give me a taste then." She boldly demanded.
He looked surprised, then not too long after, a playful smile formed on his face,
"Well, why don't you close your eyes first."
The girl complied, eye lids closing over azure pools. Her face was restful and calm, not showing the inner desires she held inside.
'He's going to kiss me? My first kiss...'
Sweet anticipation was all she could feel. Patiently waiting to taste his lips on hers, but none came. Suddenly Marron gasped, it caused the teal haired girl's eyes to fly open. Goten was still there with a smile on his face, she instinctively looked down at the pie plate. It was half eaten.
"I should've known better," oddly enough she had a smirk on her face, which confused Goten. Thinking that everything was okay, he began to eat the rest of the pie. Only when he was done, did he hear her speak.
"Since you're taking something of mine away from me," she said casually stirring her drink, careful not to look up at the greedy boy,
"It's only fair, I take something away from you." Her focus was on him now.
"Like what?" He asked in wonderment.
"Like your body." She flatly said.
"Huh?" Marron asked, shock playing on her face. The daughter of Vegeta had forgotten Marron was there. After a small silence, the blond must have sensed a need to leave the two of them alone because she quickly got up.
"Well, um... have fun you two." Marron nervously laughed as she turned her attention to Trunks' direction before heading off. When the pink dressed girl was safely out of ear's reach Goten spoke up,
"You want my body?" His laugh expressing slight nervousness; he wasn't sure he heard correctly what the girl before him was asking.
"I know you want it but-" He stopped talking when Bra abruptly stood up.
"Follow me, Goten." She called the shots.
"Wait, I'm not sure I can go through with this!" He hurriedly got up from his chair.
She was already near the entrance of the house, he quickly went after her.
"Bra!" He called out her name, it fell on deaf ears, for she continued to tread upstairs.
Follow her, he did, only to meet up at her bedroom door. He gulped, thoughts whirling in his head of Paris, the possible threats on his life by Vegeta or Trunks, and drifting dreams of this alluring girl before him.
To be with Bra, he realized, meant a lot of risks.
His mind was analyzing every situation that could possibly go down.
The beautiful young woman in front of him was leaned against the door frame, her smooth arms folded across her chest. The curves of her body were wrapped in the delicate lavender fabric of her dress. Soft pink lips and sapphire blue eyes were looking right at him as she pointed inside her bedroom.
"Come on in, Goten. We don't have all day." She gave him a playful wink.
