That's My Boy- By Dani
Ok first of all I don't own Mr.Ishida or Yamato, I also don't own the song, That's my boy by Mac
Davis. In the song I changed the name of the boy to Yami, so that it would fit in more. Umm... I don't
really know what else to tell ya... But please Review! Tell me what ya think!
There he sits with a pin and a yellow bag
He's a handsome lad
That's my boy
I walked quietly throughout the halls of Odaiba Elementary school, heading towards the
Junior Kindergarten class. I peeked my head into the room to see a small blonde haired boy,
clutching onto his bright yellow backpack. I called out his name and his eyes brightened up. "Hi
Daddy!" he called out as he hugged my leg. "Hi Yamato, are you ready to go?" He nodded eagerly,
took my hand and led me out of the class room.
"Yama? What's that pinned to your shirt?" I asked, reaching over and taking a small white
note from him. He frowned and looked down at his feet. "I didn't mean to Daddy," he said sadly. I
read the note to myself and chuckled. Yamato looked up at me, a confused look upon his face. "You
not mad?" "Of course not Yamato, who really cares if you pinched some boy named Taichi, I bet he
deserved it!" I told him. My son giggled happily and ran up to our apartment building.
That's one handsome little boy I got, he's gonna break a lot of hearts, just like his old man, I thought
to myself as I ran after him.
PRLFQ spells mom and dad
Well that ain't too bad
That's my boy
"Yamato! Dinner's ready!" my wife called to him. After a few moments, she looked me with
a puzzled look upon her face. "What's taking him so long?" she asked me. She got up to go check
but I gently pushed her back down into her chair. "Honey, you stay here, I'll go and check on him,"
I said as I headed towards his bedroom.
I opened the door and walked in to see him slouched over his desk, hard at work. "What are
you doing son? Your mother called for you 5 minutes ago." He looked over at me and held up a
piece of paper. I took it from him and looked at it. On it was three stick figures, one was tall and had
short brown hair, one was a bit shorter with blonde hair and a large stomach and then there was a
much smaller one with blonde hair also. Squalled out on top of the page were the letters P R L F and
Q and also the word Yamato. "That's a picture of us Daddy," he informed me. I smiled at him
warmly. "It's an excellent picture Yama, but what does this say?" I asked pointing to the top of the
page. "That says Mom and Dad and Yamato," he said knowingly. Aww well, close enough, I
thought as I ushered him out of his room and towards the kitchen.
You can have your tv and your night clubs
You can have your drive in picture shows
I'll sit here and drink a beer and listen to the radio
Binding my time and watching Yami grow
After dinner that night, Yamato and I went to the living room to listen to the news on the radio. It was
something that the two of us did every night and we both enjoyed the quality time together. I sat
down in the Laz-E-Boy with my feet up when the phone rang. "Moshi moshi?" "Hey, so do ya
wanna come with me and the rest of the guys and go to the club tonight?" one of my friends from
work asked. "No, I'm sorry but I'm spending time with my son now," I told him. "Oh, ok that's
cool. Talk to you later." he said hanging up. Yamato looked up at me from his spot on the floor and
asked who it was. "Oh, it was just a friend Yama, nothing for you to worry about." He nodded and
turned his attention back to his toy cars. I reached over for my beer and took a swing of it, than set it
back down. Pretty soon he'll be driving real cars, I thought. He's growing up too fast.
Making castles out of building blocks
And a cardboard box
That's my boy
A small crashing sound broke me out of my thoughts. I looked up to see that Yamato had
just emptied out his box of blocks and had begun to build around himself. "What are you up to now?"
"I'm gonna make a gigantic and be the king of it!" he exclaimed happily. He quickly went back to
work and after a bit, he had a small block castle around him that was just past his knees. Almost as
if on cue, he began to sing, "I'm the king of the castle and you're the dirty rascal!" he taunted me.
"Oh is that so?" I asked as I got up and crept up to his castle. I grabbed him in my arms and swung
him around. "Ok, so maybe you're not a rascal," he said, nuzzling his head into my neck.
Mickey mouse says it's 13 o'clock
Well that's quite a shock
That's my boy
I put him back onto the floor and he ran off to his room and then came back with his old
Mickey Mouse doll. "Now what are you doing with that old toy?" I asked him. It had been quite
awhile since I had seen that doll, since he claimed that he was too old for it. He climbed up onto my
lap and held the old doll up to my face. "I was gonna give it to the new baby," he told me. "Well,
I'm sure the baby will love it Yama, just like you did." Yamato nodded than smiled at me with a
mysterious glint in his eye. "Of course he will, Mickey is smart! He knows how to tell time better
than me." "Really? Well, that's quite a shock. What time is it now Mickey?" I asked. Yamato held it
up to his ear and than declared that it was exactly 13 o'clock on the dot. What a boy I got.
In 4 short years I've gone from rags to riches
And what i did before that I don't know
You can let it rain on my window pane
I got my own rainbow
And we're just sitting here shining watching Yami grow
While Yamato was in the bathtub, I got up and sat in the living room window. It was fairly large and
was really fifteen small windows in one. It was raining heavily outside, it was the kind that could put
anybody in a bad mood but not me. I guess it was because I had my own ray of sunshine in my life
and his name was Yamato. Before he came along, I was always depressed and I drank a lot. Than
that day when he was born and he grabbed onto my thumb and looked at me with those bright azure
eyes, it just melted my heart. He's everything I wish I could be, innocent, carefree and lovable. And
ever since he came into my life, I've had something to live for, and someone to keep me grounded in
this thing called life.
Up on daddy's shoulders and off to bed
Oh sleepy head
That's my boy
Small little footsteps approached me from behind and than glomped me. He climbed up on
shoulders and than looked down at me, his wet hair dripping all over me. "Hi Daddy! I'm all clean
now!" "Yes, I can tell, you're getting me all wet. Well sleepy head, it's time for bed." His face fell
and he looked at me with large puppy dog eyes. "Do I have to?" he asked, his lip quivering. "Yes, l
et's go," I said as I gave him a piggy back to his room than plopped him onto his bed.
Gotta have a drink of water and a story read
And an old teddy bear named Fred
That's my boy
I tucked him into his Smurf sheets, kissed him and than got up to leave the room. "Daddy?"
a small voice called out. I turned around and looked at him curiously. "Can I have a drink of water?"
I sighed and retrieved him one from the bedroom. After that he begged for a story. I decided to read
him Goodnight Moon which he helped out with, yelling goodnight to all the items in his room, for his
night light to his underwear drawer. "Ok, you've had your drink and your story now it's time for
bed," I told him. "But Daddy... I can't find Fred." Oh no, not this again. It seemed that every time
that I put him to bed, Fred would disappear. I would spend almost ten minutes looking for that old
bear and it would turn out that Yama was hiding it under his pillow like always. This time I decided
to get right to it, I lifted his pillow up, and guess who I found? None other than good ol' Fred. He
looked at me sheepishly and than closed his eyes and shortly after he was fast asleep.
What's that you say mama?
C'mon and keep your feet warm
Save me a place I'll be there in a minute or so
I think I'll sit right here
And say a little prayer before i go
Cuz me and God
We're watching Yami grow
"Honey! Come to bed!" "Yes darling, I'll be right there!" I called back. I turned by attention
back to my sleeping boy. He lay very still and every once in a while, a small moan would escape
from his lips. This was one of my most favourite things to do, watch my son while he slept. A smile
escaped from my lips, as he let out a cute little whimper.
Bending down on my knees, I asked God to take care of my Yamato, for he was the only
person who I could say I could truly love. My wife and I had been have some trouble lately, so I
knew that it wouldn't be able to last much longer. I unblessed myself and than turned to exit. There
was one last thing I promised to myself that night, no matter what happens, I'd always be there for
him, my little guardian angel.
Me and God are watching Yami grow
Always and forever, until the end of time.
