The Only One for Me

By: NaCoBe

It's Not for Me

Hello all… I've been holding this since forever. I'm tried of holding it in so I'm opening it up to you all…

Disclaimer: I don't own DB/DBZ/DBGT or any of its characters. However, this idea is mine and mine alone. I also don't own the song 'The only One for Me' by Brian McKnight.

... is a flashback, > > ...> > is thesong.

I've always wondered why I was the only one of my friends who never confessed that I've ever felt love. Am I incapable of the feeling? Is my heart as cold as my father's appears to be? No… I've been in love. Several times to be honest, but I always seemed to be the one crying in the end. Now I've just realized that love is something that not written in my divine plan.

Bra sat on the couch in her brother's entertainment room and pretended to watch the movie on the television but found her eyes gravitating back to the love seat across from her where he and his girlfriend, her best friend, were a few steps away from making their own movie. She shifted on the large couch and made herself watch the movie, where at that particular moment, was showing its own heated love scene. The young woman frowned and said out loud to herself,

"Too much lovey-dovey crap, I can't take it." She slid off of the couch and started out of the room. As she got to the door way she heard both the woman on the television and Pan moan about the same time and shook her head. She left the man's townhouse and went to her place which was less than fifty feet away.

When she turned seventeen, Bra wanted to move out of her parents' home but Vegeta was totally against the idea. So as a compromise, Bulma made a section of the house that was furthest away from her and Vegeta a suite for her daughter; much like she did with Trunks. The suite had its own entrance and was set up like an extremely large townhouse within the mansion. When she entered her living room she sighed a lot heavier than she did earlier before and flopped down in her favorite chair. The room was dark with the exception of the light that the stars flickered through the windows. The young woman looked around the area and realized that since she's had her 'own place', no one but her parents, Trunks and Pan have been over.

Jeez, I've been living here for almost four months and no one but family has been over. Why is that?

She stood and commanded the light to turn on and started towards the foyer to grab her phone book and noticed a pick envelope under her door. She picked up the envelope and opened it. Inside there was a gold chain with a diamond heart charm and a letter that said,

Bra,

If we were still together today would be our two-year anniversary. Although we are no longer a couple I still feel the need to say Happy Anniversary. I love you and always will. You are my moon.

Love Always,

Your Sun

The Saiyajin princess stared at the letter and held the necklace in her hand as she blinked repeatedly to fight the tears. At the same time her heart was beating a lot faster than it was a few moments before. She went to sit on the foyer bench as she thought back to the last time she saw the writer of the note...

She grabbed the man's hand as he started to walk away and yelled,

"Don't you walk away from me!!! I deserve an explanation!!!" The man turned around and frowned, making his normally soft features look deranged as he retorted,

"You want an explanation?!? Huh Bra? You're just too much!!! That's why!" The sixteen year old looked at her boyfriend with raised eyebrows and bellowed,

"What the hell does that mean? I'm too much? What's too much?!?" Goten sighed and lowered his tone and said,

"Bra, do you realize that I changed almost everything for you? I've gotten rid of most of my friends, stopped going to places I love going, changed my style for you…everything! But you still aren't satisfied, you want more!!! 'Goten you can't do this, Goten you can't do that, Goten I don't like this, and so on. You are so high maintenance and conceited." The teenager's eyes clouded over with tears as anger boiled up in her and she replied none too politely,

"You've given up! What about me? Do you know that my mom and dad look at me differently since I've started dating you? I've been dealing with that for over a year now Goten and they're still at odds about it! Do you know my friends ask me why am I with you and I find myself defending you? They all say 'he's a playboy, he's not going to treat you right, he's probably cheating on you as we speak'. I argue that you're not and then come to find out you are!!! So don't talk to me about being too much. I may be high maintenance but you've come with so much baggage and I'm coping." Goten yanked away from the girl's hand and said as he walked away,

"Well princess you don't have to cope anymore, okay." A tear ran down the girl's face as she turned and walked the opposite way and screamed,

"FINE!!!"...

Bra blinked and felt a gentle coolness on her face and became conscious that she was crying. She looked down at the note again and saw the pink paper now had fuchsia dots adorning it. She crumbled the paper and tossed it in a nearby trashcan and said aloud,

"Yeah, I felt love before, humph, but love's not for me."

> > > > > > > > >

You say you've seen too many things,

that turned out to be too good to be true.

Against your better judgment, opened up your heart,

'til you found the joke was on you.

> > > > > > > > >

Yes it is a romance but I'm not going to tell you with who. Have fun trying to figure it out…

Although she's probably mad at me for me not talking to her in a long time, this story is dedicated to Vegeta's little princess.

Peace!!!!! NaCoBe
