Hello :/

So yeah. Been a while huh? ^_^ I hope you're still following this story lol. If you're new....sup? I have no set updating schedule, refer to previous chapters on why this story is only updated every few months or so :P

But yes, I have returned! *listens to crickets* Well fuck...anyway this chapter is complete crap so don't mind me. I hastily threw it together after a shot of motivation and a little kick in the ass by some friends who told me I couldn't write a chapter in one day. SUCK ON THAT BITCHES!!! I did. XD

Anyway Goten and Nelfiie chap. Enjoy.

Chapter 9

Three days passed after what had happened with Vegeta and Nelfie was just sitting under a tree in CC wildlife enclosure. She kept going over the incident in her head. Like some broken record her mind skipped to when she sent him flying across the room, the hurt look on his face as she fled, and the events before it.

She felt guilty. Towards Bulma and Vegeta. She didn't know what hurt more, the fact she knew Bulma still cared for Vegeta, or the face Vegeta made as she ran off.

Either way she avoided the briefs family unable to deal with her current emotions. So she was hiding, basically. She thought she was doing a good job until a certain mischievous Doppelganger found her sanctuary.

"Hi." The voice above her greeted as cheerfully as his father would have.

She sighed and with out cracking an eye open she greeted him back, with a lot less enthusiasm however.

"Hello Goten." She sighed not bothering to get up.

"So are you done hiding from everyone? Or are you going to live with the animals in here forever...seems as though a few of the cats have taken quite a liking to you." He said off handedly at the two fur balls sleeping not too far off from her.

"They're nothing, the t-rex was a real pest there for the first day." She smiled remembering the bonk on the nose she gave the giant lizard when it tried to eat her. She heard Goten laugh as he plopped down beside her.

"Well at any rate you are going to have to face everyone eventually. I'm not really sure what happened between you and Vegeta the only thing I know is that we all felt your energy spike, his was pretty weird too. You also have to face Trunks." She shot up and looked at him once he finished.

"How?" She tried to question before he stopped her.

"Trunks is my best friend. We tell each other everything." He smiled that great big smile all the Sons seemed to have that melted the hearts of any who were blessed to see it.

"Oh...I, well I mean I can't really, i-I mean I don't know what to say to everyone. I'm all lost on that." She confessed to him, her face seemed more like a child now than the teen she was.

"Just tell them you're still adjusting, which is true right? They'll understand." He encouraged putting as much positivity as he could into it.

"I guess that's true..." She mumbled.

"Don't worry I'll be there with you. 'Kay?" He reassured her with a loving smile.

"Okay." She smiled lightly back at him.

"Good. But there was something else. You see I don't think it occurred to anyone to actually tell you but, there will be dancing at this party on Saturday."

"Dancing?" She questioned, looking quite adorable tilting her head to the side large eyes blinking owlishly. Goten laughed at her innocent reaction.

"Yes, dancing. So we're going to a class that teaches the type of dancing we'll be doing at the party." He gave her a big bright smile that even if she wanted too, she couldn't refuse. She agreed and they snuck out of capsule corp to a small dance studio on the East side of West City.

They touched down in front of the five story brick walk up. The studio was on the fourth floor and was nothing like she had seen. The floor was completely open and windows allowed the sunlight too pour over the hardwood floor. Mirrors covered every inch of wall they could, which only brightened up the place.

It was like a dream. The place just seemed so warm and calm, she could feel the events of the past just fade from her mind as she entered the room fully.

"Goten..." She whispered in complete awe.

"This place is amazing." She said eyes roaming the entire room, eager to take in every detail. The moldings and cream colour matched well with the white oak flooring, which was so shiny she could practically see herself in it.

"I'm glad you like it. I searched for a place that would take us on such short notice and stumbled upon this place." He smiled please with the fact that Nelfie seemed to absolutely love this place.

"I really do like it. It seems like a dream." She smiled back, glad to be free of her troubles for the moment.

"So? You wanna get started?" He asked holding out his right hand for her to take, which she did nodding in response.

"Great." He grinned before calling out, "Madam Haywood?! I'm back and I've brought along my partner!" He called cheerfully into the area. A woman who seemed to be in her mid sixties came waltzing out of the room with as much grace as any professional dancer would. Her tea length skirt swaying with her movements. Her grey hair pulled into a loose bun with a few wispy tendrils falling out here and there framing her aged, yet glowing face. There could not have been someone more suited for the role of a dance teacher in Nelfie's mind as she watched the woman approach flawlessly in her black peeptoe high heels that matched the black top sitting on top of that flowy pumpernickel skirt.

"Good afternoon." She greeted the two standing in the middle of her studio. To Nelfie her voice sounded like warm butter. It just seemed to settle deep inside you, it had authority and dignity, however it was also very kind. Like the eyes that seemed to be smiling at the two young Saiyans.

"Good afternoon Madam." Goten greeted her. "Madam Haywood this is my partner Nelfie Briefs." He introduced.

"It's a pleasure to meet you Madam Haywood." Nelfie bowed slightly to her in greeting.

"The pleasure is all mine, as Goten stated I am Madam Evianna Haywood welcome to my studio, Grace in Life." She said outstretching her arms in gesture of the room.

"Now let us begin." She gave a sweet smile but her eyes shone with a certain level of mischief.

=======changofPOV========

With that tone I knew I should have been afraid and I was right. It held all the promises of hard work and no mercy.

Being around humans is very different than it is being with other inhabitants of the universe. Apparently "ki" is not wide spread here and we have to keep it on the down low. So Goten and I came to an agreement we would allow only our bodies to do the work. No powering up.

We should have thought that through a bit more. The level of control in one's muscles to even perform the simplest of moves is taxing. Dancing may not be martial arts, but man I'll be damned if I am corrected when people say it's not a battle.

The co-ordination and balance is insane! We were both drenched in sweat after only two hours of practice. But it was totally worth it. Goten brushed up on his dancing skills(which were limited he admitted) and I learned a basic waltz.

======

Six hours! They practiced for six hours and she had the basic waltz down and part of a tango Goten wanted to learn. She was tired, sweaty and breathing heavily. She loved it and wanted more, but it was time to call it a night since it was already 8pm.

"That was amazing." Nelfie breathed a heavy sigh. She was exhausted, yet content. Goten handed her a bottle of cold water and she happily accepted it.

"Yeah that was pretty intense." He smiled before taking a large chug of the clear liquid.

"Did you enjoy yourself?" He asked before taking another gulp.

"Yes, very much." She smiled up at him happily from the wooden bench in the corner of the room.

"Good, because we have lessons all week. This way you'll learn more than one dance for the party."

"Really? That's so great! I really really like this...ballroom dancing (?)." She all but squealed to Goten and gave him an expression he would never forget.

It hit him hard right then. She was extremely adorable. He knew she was beautiful, actually she was down right gorgeous. But the youthfulness in her face shone through when she was truly happy. He was glad he got too see it. He decided right then he wanted to see it more often and made it his personal mission to do so.

He wanted to be the reason for her smiles. He had watched her all dance class and the smile that radiated from her had him melting, and the touch of their bodies together had him heating up from his core.

He was suddenly really grateful that ballroom dancing was a thing and silently thanked the gods and whoever was responsible for it whole heartedly.

------------

Nelfie was sitting in her room in front of the small vanity Bulma had bought her recently. Something about all young ladies needed their own personal vanity....

She didn't know what all that was about but she accepted it none-the-less because a pushy Bulma would not be ignored.

So now she sat in in front of it her hair in a slightly messy updo. A few tendrils hanging framed her face and the rhinestone clip in her hair gave her a feel of royalty. Something she was not used too. Her make-up, done by Bulma was very light and only complimented her and the dress.

Her jewelry was minimal and came from Bulma's own collection. She donned a dainty white gold chain from her neck and a pair of small chandelier earrings to match, and a thin diamond tennis bracelet.

Looking in that mirror, she hardly recognized herself. That greatly diminished herself esteem. Worrying over things like 'What if no one liked her?' or 'What if she embarrassed Bulma in front of important clients?'. Those thoughts wouldn't leave her head from the moment she got up this morning.

She didn't even know why she was so nervous. She was raised as a warrior, surely she could handle a simple party, right?

Then she remembered her father...

He didn't raise her for self doubt. He raised her to be strong. To trustin herself and be confident. When had she become so meek and need others to take care of her? That's not who she was.

Smiling softly back at her reflection and taking everything in before her. She calmly stood up from the vanity and made her way down to the party.

So there it is. Nothing left to say except review and rate or don't.

Later,

Jnell
