A Daughter?!

Epilogue

A/N Goten and Cookie are now teenagers. Read On.

Cookie let out a sigh as she crossed both her arms over her chest as she slowly walked on the grass as she looked out to the mountains and then up to the stars up above before sadly looking down.

/You know I want you
It's not a secret I try to hide
I know you want me
So don't keep saying our hands are tied
You claim it's not in the cards
Fate is pulling you miles away
And out of reach from me
But you're here in my heart
So who can stop me if I decide
That you're my destiny?/

"Cookie?"

Goten said gently as he sadly made his way to her.

"Are you okay?"

He asked. Cookie sadly closed her eyes.

"Goten, are you ashame of me?"

"No of course not, never"

He said sincerely as he grabbed her hand to look into her black eyes that were reflecting the night shining stars.

/What if we rewrite the stars?
Say you were made to be mine
Nothing could keep us apart
You'd be the one I was meant to find
It's up to you, and it's up to me
No one can say what we get to be
So why don't we rewrite the stars?
Maybe the world could be ours
Tonight/

"But tonight proved that you are"

Goten shook his head as he recalled what happen. Goten invited Cookie to his family dinner, nobody knew about their secret relationship except for Trunks, Whis and Lord Beerus. The family was having a discussion during dinner about Goten's future and of his future relationship with Paresu right in front of Cookie.

"You think it was easy for me to sit through that?"

/You think it's easy
You think I don't want to run to you
But there are mountains
And there are doors that we can't walk through
I know you're wondering why
Because we're able to be
Just you and me
Within these walls
But when we go outside
You're going to wake up and see that it was hopeless after all/

"You know I love you"

Goten said sincerely.

"I know you do but I have been thinking a lot lately"

"About what?"

"Us. Everything's been keeping us apart lately but mostly your mother, what if we weren't meant to be?"

/No one can rewrite the stars
How can you say you'll be mine?
Everything keeps us apart
And I'm not the one you were meant to find
It's not up to you
It's not up to me
When everyone tells us what we can be
How can we rewrite the stars?
Say that the world can be ours
Tonight/

"Cookie, come on no one can't tell us what we can be"

Cookie shook her head as she pulled her hand away from his and gently caress his face.

"What if one day you realize this relationship is hopeless after all? What if we aren't meant to find each other..."

"And what if we can rewrite the stars?"

Goten said cutting her off.

/All I want is to fly with you
All I want is to fall with you
So just give me all of you/

Cookie pulled her hand away as she looked to him in surprise.

"Rewrite the stars? No one can't rewrite the stars Goten, it's impossible, it's not up to you and it's not up to me"

"It's not impossible"

/It feels impossible (it's not impossible)
Is it impossible?/

Cookie cracked a half smile as she embraced him and slowly pulled away. Goten immediately embraced her harder pulling her back for a tighter hug before finally separating.

/Say that it's possible/

"I appreciate the experience you gave me, but I feel like I need to move forward. Thank you for all the good times, I will always remember you as one of the nicest guys I’ve ever met. May your future be full of love and amazing people"

She said sincerely. Goten sadly looked down.

/How do we rewrite the stars?
Say you were made to be mine?
Nothing can keep us apart
'Cause you are the one I was meant to find
It's up to you
And it's up to me
No one can say what we get to be
And why don't we rewrite the stars?
Changing the world to be ours/

"Is this really it between us?"

He asked. Cookie sadly smile as she gave him a light kiss on the lips before pulling away and started to fly up.

"It's the way, it has to be. Goodbye"

She said lowly as her eyes teared up before heading straight up into the sky. Goten sadly smiled as he watched her leave.

/You know I want you
It's not a secret I try to hide
But I can't have you
We're bound to break and my hands are tied/

*Lord Beerus's Home Planet*

"I broke up with Goten"

She announced to her father and to Whis who surprisingly let out a sigh of relief.

"I'm sorry for the separating Cookie but I'm honestly relieved and was quite worried the both of you would get married"

Whis said with a nervous laugh. Lord Beerus angrily looked at him.

"You were worried because of that?!"

He said with a scoff before turning to his daughter.

"I was afraid Goten was going to get you pregnant, especially at a young age. Nevertheless sweetheart, sorry for the split up"

He said sincerely as Cookie immediately embrace him as he comfort her. Surprisingly to Whis and Lord Beerus, Cookie was actually laughing. She pulled away to wipe a year as she smiled.

"It was for the best, after all. Our relationship was secret, well sort of secret"

"What exactly happened?"

Lord Beerus asked. Cookie told them about the discussion at the family dinner.

"I'm surprise"

He said shock. Cookie slightly frown.

"Surprise at what?"

"You were invited to a family dinner and not me, I may need to have a word with Goku and his wife"

Cookie laughs.

"Dad come on, it was a last minute decision"

Lord Beerus looked to her with his eyes playfully narrowed but decided to let it go.

"Alright alright"

He said with a sigh

The things I do for love"

He said with a smile to Cookie.

The End 😊
