It's spring in the adventure packed world of Dragon ball Z. Even though things seem peaceful and quiet It's no excuse to slack off.
The son family will always be prepared for the unexpected.
When the raining stopped Son Gohan want for a sprint through the green grassfield accompanied with Goten and a little Brother from a different Mother Trunks.
They hopped on each stones to get across the river Trunks slipped and landed on his knees.
Gohan looked behind him slightly worried.
'Hey are you ok buddy"? Gohan beamed.
"Yeah Im ok" Trunks said and got up and joined the gang as they leaped through the tree branches. The sun shined through the leafs of the tree.
Trunks loved the city but since he's spending more time at gotens house the nature of mount paozu grew on him. and could no longer stand the reeking city he grew up in.
Goten rested on his back under a large tree listening to tiny birds bickering behind the leafs.
Trunks rolled up his trousers and noticed the injury from the slip was a bit bigger than he thought It stung badly and Gohan noticed that Trunks walked a bit funny.
Gohan knew it might be because of the fall. he got up and walked over to trunks.
"Trunks come here" Gohan said."let me see that leg.
But trunks backed away No everything is ok
"Im just going to look at it. I'm not going to hurt you". Gohan tried to calm him down.
"Now let me see".
And trunks rolled up his trousers. Gohan ripped a piece off his Gi off and tied it around his knee to stop the bleeding.
"There you go" Gohan smiled You are a tough cookie Trunks.
"Thanks Trunks blushed slightly.."
"Gohan.". Trunks said getting the older Saiyan's attention.
"Yes? what's wrong"? and Gohan knelt to his level again.
"Can I stay with you guys for another week? I really don't want to go home".
"But School is about to start next week and your parents are expecting you" Gohan said.
"I know I know but. I feel alone alot You got Goten and your sensei An Father who looks after you.. I don't have that kind of luxury at home".
Gohan felt bad. He hated seeing Trunks that way.
"I understand how you feel. But college will start for me soon too and I won't have much time to look after you. You might get bored".
"I got Goten to hang out with.I'll go home around night-time and come back in the morning so that you guys have the night for yourself".
'Listen you can stay here as long as you like but we need to discuss things with your parents too ok"?
"Ok sure Trunks said". quiet
'Hey come on we can Always meet up in the weekend "Gohan said. "We don't know the answer yet maybe they'll say yes".
"Ok I hope they will'.Trunks said.
"I love spending time here and my head is clear when I'm outside the city". Trunks said not facing Gohan Instead he focused on the small waves that appear in the crystalic water of the river.
"Trunks, Please listen". Gohan said making trunks focus his attention on him.
"You know that I enjoy your company especially Goten. If you have to come home next week please don't be upset. In October I'll a have week off how about we go trick or treating"?
Trunks face brightened smiling happily. Trunks jumped up and gave Gohan a koala hug. Trunks hear a loud roar and the two Saiyans looked down to Gohan's stomach.
Gohan smiled sheepish." Let go back I'm starving" Gohan said and placed Trunks down.
And watched Gohan waking up Goten from his nap to go home for dinner
.".I just wished I could be adopted by the Son family or at least become Gohan or Goku's Godson so that I can stay". Trunks thought to himself.
This life right here is so peaceful, With Gohan and his family you can be yourself and no stress or loud noises will disrupt your serenity in mount Paozu.
Gohan is Always very caring at times a bit over the top, Goku is very nonchalant and care free but he wouldn't exchange them for anything.
Trunks always has alot of fun here. He always wakes up with a smile but back at home well not really.
Sure it's nice to have a break from the woods and have a walk around the city but if Trunks could choose he rather be among the animals and open space that's not polluted with smelly cars.
"Trunks"? Gohan yelled from a distance. Trunks snapped back to reality and looked at the two saiyans puzzled.
Come on buddy diner is almost ready!
"Coming"! Trunks said,he hopped next to Gohans side and they traveled back home.
"Are you ok? You seemed a bit spaced out a minute ago" Gohan asked.
"Yeah I am I was thinking about my time here and you've been a very good friend No the best friend ever".
"dawww That's very sweet Trunks. Thank you".
"No Thank you for having me. I can't thank you enough".
"And you are always welcome here". Gohan smiled gently and they hopped over the large rocks making their own path to cross the large river.
After dinner Chi-Chi ordered the gang to hit the sack. Goten used gohans shoulder as a pillow nuzzling his face against it affectionately. Gohan had one arm around his little brother keeping him safe from all harm.
Trunks rested his head against Gohans stomach the only thing he doesn't like is hitting the sack this early,
But then again he's Always well rested compared to at home when he's under Vegeta's care, His Father doesn't care when Trunks goes to bed aslong he has done is training and doesn't get on Vegeta's nerves he'll hear nothing from his Father.
Which is a bummer but his adopted family is kind of filling that gap.
Gohan ate more food than every single citizen in japanbut his stomach still roared a bit demanding more food.
Trunk was Always blown away by the bottomless pit like eating habits. and is more blown away about the fact that Chi-Chi can afford plates full of food that could feed whole europe.
But still he felt at home everytime he comes to play with Goten and a part of this family and couldn't imagine a week without his 2 saiyan brothers.
Trunks sighed happily pulling the thin sheets closer. The crickets chirrped very loud in the forest and the starts are much closer than in the city.
That's one of the small things he loves about mount Peoz.
His mother offered the son family to look after Trunks 5 days a week during the holidays for some extra cash so that Trunks doesn't have to spend the holidays alone without anyone to spend time with him.
Chi-Chi gladly accepted and invited them over To their house.
Trunks remembered the first time he met gohan. Sure he was very nervous but it faded when Gohan was very friendly.
/-/-/
'My-My you've grown kid' Gohan Said And lowered himself to his level.
"I remembered you when you were this small".
Trunks blushed looking away "It's nice to meet you too Sir" Trunks said politely.
Gohan got the heebe jeebies all over his spine When Trunks said the "S" word But he knows Trunks ment it well.
Gohan smiled placing a hand on his shoulder 'Hey..Just Call me Gohan, Im not that old".
Trunks smiled back and surprised Gohan with an embrace.
Gohan was puzzled but hugged back with one arm.
"Welcome to the family Trunks-kun"'
"Group hug"! Goten beamed and joined in.
'Mom get over here" Goten said and Chi-Chi stopped with what she was going And Welcomed Trunks aswell.
And that was the start of a brotherhood between the three half saiyans.
