Beauty Chapter 2
Hey I must really be on a role!!! Two stories on the same day!!! Actually I'm broke and confind to the house so I figure why not be productive and update some ficcies!!!!
Disclaimer: If I owed it I wouldn't be writing fanfics about it. I'd just add another series to the three that are already in existence. I don't own Beauty performed by Dru Hill either.
*…* is thoughts; ### is flashbacks; *** is telepathic conversation; is the song.
Bra grabbed Goten's hand, bringing him out of his daydream. He looked over to his wife of twenty-three years and is still in awe of how lovely she still looks. She looked up at him and said,
"Hey you. What are you thinking about?" He smiled and softly replied,
"Nothing much, just stuff." Bra squeezed his hand and said,
"You're nervous aren't you." Goten shook his head and said,
"No, not really. I know everything's going to turn out fine." He then leaned down and kissed her softly, making sure not to mess up her makeup, a habit he had to learn over the years. She let go of her husband's hand and went over to her mother, who had already started her flow of tears.
Goten walked away from the group forming around him so he could continue to think.

"Come on Beauty, you can do it," Goten said with his arms stretched out in front of him. He looked at his thirteen month old daughter encouragingly and smiled. He could tell she was frustrated even at this age. Her brothers have been walking for a month now. He mentally cursed himself for carrying her so much. Everyone says he spoils her but he doesn't care.
*She's my child and I'll spoil her all I want.*
He watched Kaijin's brow furrow as she let go of the end table. She turned slightly and said in her little gibberish tone with her arms stretched out,
"Da da!!!" Goten smiled brighter, he always loves to hear her call him.
"Come on Kaijin, walk to daddy. You can do it."
The little girl frowned more as she realized she wasn't getting what she wanted, her daddy to come to her, and screamed,
"Da Da!!!!" Instead of stepping towards her, her daddy stepped back. Normally she would just sit down and begin to cry because she knew her daddy would come to her then, but she didn't feel like doing that. She growled low in her throat as her tail stuck straight out from behind her and she began powering up, although she didn't know this. The only thing she knew was her daddy wasn't doing what she wanted.
Goten stood up straight and watched Kaijin as she powered up and slowly but surely began to levitate off the ground. His little girl was floating in midair and slowly making her way over to her father. Goten chucked and aid as he continued to hold his arms out and said,
"It would be you to learn to fly before learning to walk. Bra!!! You gotta see this!!! Hurry up!!!"

I'm hoping I can make you mine.
Before another man steals your heart
And your beauty is mine,
I swear we will never be apart.
"Hey brother, how are you?" Goten snapped out of another one of his daydreams to see his brother standing next to him. He smiled politely and said,
"About a good as a man could be on a day like today." Gohan gave his younger brother a supportive pat on the back and said,
"You know everything's going to be okay right?"
"Yeah, I just didn't think this would happen so soon. Where did the time go to?" Gohan replied,
"I've asked myself the same question over and over again and have yet to come up with an answer." Goten looked down at his spit polished black shoes and sighed. His brother wrapped his arm around his shoulder and said,
"Well, if it's any constellation, I'm here for you when you need to talk." Holding back tears,
Goten smiled reassuringly and said,
"Thanks man."

"Daddy!! Daddy!! Watch this!!!! Uncle Uubuu taught me a new trick." Goten stopped his katas and watched his daughter prepare for the trick she was so intent on show off.
"Okay sweet pea, go for it." Kaijin closed her eyes and held her hand as if she was holding a ball. Slowly a small ball of light flickered between her hands and she opened her eyes. With a bright smile she said,
"See? I can make ki balls!!!!" Goten smiled brightly but made a mental note to give Uubuu a piece of his mind for showing his three-year-old child how to make ki balls.
"That's great honey!!! Now you need to be careful with that…" Just as he said this, the toddler lowered her hands without dissipating the ball, causing it to hurl towards him. Goten figured the blast wouldn't hurt since it came from a young child but braced himself slightly. However, the ball never hit him and he saw his daughter controlling the ki with a point of her finger. He watched in amazement as the girl maneuvered the ball in the air with ease and asked,
"When did uncle Uubuu show you this honey?" The little girl continued to play with the ball in the air and said nonchalantly,
"When grampa and him were playing in the air." Goten knew his daughter was talking about the sparring match his father and ersatz brother earlier today and decided to ask further,
"So how did uncle Uubuu teach you the trick?" The girl swirled the ball in the air and said,
"When he did it with grampa. It was pretty but he threw it at grampa and he yelled." Goten smiled and thought,
*My little girl is something amazing!!!! Learning complicated tricks just by watching.*
His thoughts were interrupted by a strong blast hitting him in his back. He yelled as he flew and hit a nearby tree. Kaijin looked at her father wide eyed and said,
"Hey daddy you did what grampa did!!!! It was funny!!!!" The girl giggled and clapped her hands in innocent amusement. Goten shook the stars and realized at that moment Kaijin was something beyond special.
Walks by me everyday
Her and love are the same
The woman that stole my heart
And Beauty is her name
Yeah it was short but it's because I want it to be. Well, I guess I will update sometime. Review!!!
