When the One You Love, Loves Another: Chapter One
I don't own Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, Or Dragon Ball GT. They are all owned by Akira Toriyama. I only own Marron and Bulla's boyfriends. Also, a collaboration with Charismatic Beauty
Enjoy!
Goten POV
I was hanging out with Trunks, my best friend, my niece Pan, and Marron, when sheshowed up. Her hair was like a pool of water, shining in the sun. And her beauty rivaled other girls'. She was perfect, except, there's always something to get in the way. Not only is she dating someone, she's my best friend's sister. Bulla Briefs, is my best friend's sister, and, I can't betray Trunks like that, it's just not in my nature.
Even though Trunks and my niece are flirting, I don't think anything is going on, but, I could be wrong. Trunks wouldn't do that; we've been friends ever since the start. He wouldn't throw it all away on a girl, right?
Anyway, we were hanging out at the park, talking about ordinary things, like college and soon, summer vacation.
"How are you doing in school, Trunks?" I asked. Trunks cocked an eyebrow at me, and then back at his book.
"Who are you, my mom?" he teased. I grunted at him, as he started laughing. "Just great. I amthe son of the smartest and richest woman in the world, why would I be failing?"
"Because you sleep in class, you flirt with girls instead of study, you skip on your important classes…" I started. Trunks snorted while taking off his glasses.
"I could buy that whole school in a blink of an eye dude," he chuckled.
"So why don't you?" I asked innocently. Trunks sighed and clamped his hand on my shoulder, shaking his head at me.
"You wouldn't understand my naïve friend. There's paperwork, and more paperwork. It's just too much for a guy to handle," He laughed. I pouted at him, before laughing with him.
"What are you guys laughing about?" Pan asked. I looked at her with a bored look.
"None of your business Pan. Did you find an ice cream parlor somewhere?" I asked her. She growled at me before looking away.
"Yes, on the other side of the park," she muttered. I smiled and stood up.
"Alright, then we can go after we're done here," I suggested. Trunks nodded in agreement, before looking down at his phone.
"Oh hey Bulla!" he greeted. I froze in place at the mention of her name. Was she coming here? Did something happen? Questions of different types ran through my head.
"That's great! Yeah, we're by the Sakura Tree in the park, the one on the hill," Trunks smiled into the phone. "See you then!"
"What was that about?" Pan asked.
"Bulla has some news for us, she sounded very excited," Trunks answered. I felt a little bit of hope spark in my chest. Maybe she'll say that she has a crush on me.
"I just love, love, love you Goten! Can we stay together forever?"
"I don't know my dear, you may not be good enough,"
"Oh please Goten-kun!"
"Well, I just because you asked so nicely, my darling,"
That would be so awesome! I dawdled in my own fantasies. Angels over my head, and my hands together in the sky. (A/N: Guess what anime that's from!)
"What's wrong with Goten?" Trunks asked. Pan shrugged her shoulders while scratching her head.
"I don't know, he's been doing that a lot lately," she sighed. Trunks glanced at her, before walking towards me.
"Hey! Goten snap out of it!" He tried to get me out my trance. "Bulla's almost here!"
"For real?" I quickly snapped out of it when I heard her name. Trunks sighed in annoyance with a sweat drop forming on the side of his head.
"No, it's just Marron and her boyfriend," He told me. I pouted and rubbed my hair. Marron looked at me with a confused look on her face.
"Uh, Goten? What's wrong?" she asked. I shook my head and gave her my Son family smile.
"It's nothing, I was just thinking," okay, it wasn't a completelie. Marron smiled back and looked at her boyfriend. Her boyfriend, Bito, was a little weird looking. He's handsome, don't get me wrong, but his eyes were a salmon color, and his hair was straight up black. His hair was so long that he had to pull it into a ponytail. He is usually calm and kept together, and nice. He knows some martial arts, still not a challenge for Trunks and I.
"I wonder what Bulla is going to tell us," Marron mumbled.
"Me too. Maybe she got into that dance academy?" Trunks pondered. Marron shook her head.
"No, she didn't get in, and Vegeta destroyed half the place," Marron reminded. I suddenly remembered what happened. Vegeta would do anything just to see his "princess" smile. And if that means tearing down half of an important building, he would do it. Bulla has him wrapped around his finger. If he ever found out that I liked her, he would freak out and say something along the lines of
"There is no way in hell would I let my daughter fuck some third class spawn of Kakarott!"
The dance academy instructor, Ms. Aiko, said she wasn't graceful ad she didn't have any talent. Well, Vegeta was having none of it, and stomped into the academy, breaking down three doors, two security officers, and a flower vase. He fought with the woman, trying to keep his energy down, until Ms. Aiko called him a "brainless body builder" (try saying that 5 times fast). Vegeta blew up, and with him, half of the academy.
"Did she get her driver's license?" Marron asked. I shook my head.
"Nope, Bulma and Vegeta are banned from all of the nearest driving schools in the city," I told her. When Trunks was sixteen, Bulma took him to a driving school, and to make this story short, Bulma ran into the school and the place burned down. The second time, Vegeta went with Trunks. And he blew up the place because he didn't parallel park correctly. Then word got around that the Briefs family ruined driving schools, so, they were banned.
"Oh yeah, I forgot. Well, I wonder what happened this time?" Bito asked. I was anxious to find out myself. She wasn't this excited, unless it was about clothes, or finishing a training exercise with Vegeta. Either that, or…
No!
Don't jump to conclusions! You don't know for sure that she has a boyfriend, but, Bulla does chase after guys. She's never serious though. Damn it!
As I stopped thinking, Bulla ran towards the hill. Her eyes were full of light and her hair shined under the horizon.
"Hi guys! How've you been?" she greeted. I fought down my blush, before giving her a small wave.
"Sooo, what's the big news?" Pan asked.
"Yeah! We want to know! The suspense is killing me!" Marron probed. Bulla giggled at the attention. Her face reddened to a cute blush that made my knees weaken.
"You really want to know?" She taunted.
"YES!" The girls replied.
"I would like to know as well, little sis," Trunks added. Bulla pulled in a deep breath and said the words that brought my life to a grinding halt.
"I have a boyfriend now!"
