Samara Bulma Briefs
CHAPTER 1
Goten is staying at Trunks' house. Now, they are playing in Bulma's lab after she had gone to a meeting. They were messing with Bulma's latest invention and Goten had pressed the wrong button. Now, Trunks was shouting at him.
"Oh, Goten you are so stupid!" Trunks shouted at his best friend.
"Sorry, I didn't know."
"That's the point, you don't know anything!"
"Sorry," Goten's eyes brimming with tears.
"Stop saying sorry, kami, it must be the only word you know."
Goten looked at Trunks for a moment then ran from the lab, tears flowing down his cheeks. He flew to a clearing in the woods, sat under a tree, knees up to his forehead, arms wrapped around his legs,and sobbed.
He sat there until it grew dark and started to rain. He lifted his head up. I'm not going home coz they think I'm stupid as well. Shivering, he lay on his side, curled up and fell asleep.
CHAPTER 2
Bulma got back from her meeting around six. She was soaking wet from the rain. Taking her coat off, Vegeta came in.
"Where is my food, woman?" he asked nastily.
"I'll start it, soon as I've got changed and checked on the boys, alright?"
"Just hurry up. woman."
He walked out of the room. She walked upstairs, got changed and knocked on Trunks' door.
"Come in, " She heard Trunks say.
Bulma opened the door and walked in. She only saw Trunks sitting on his bed, alone. No Goten.
"Where's Goten?"
"He left because..." he paused.
"Because what?" she asked sitting on her son's bed now looking at his face. He turned his gaze to his hands in his lap.
"Because...because I called him stupid."
"Why did you call him stupid?" Bulma raised her voice. Trunks winced.
"We were in your lab, just playing, and he pressed the wrong button on your new invention and I shouted at him."
Bulma sighed. "Then what?" she asked.
"He ran off crying."
"Right, I want you to go find him, say you're sorry, and then bring him back here, if you don't you won't be fed for a month. Alright, now go!"
"Ok, mum," he said climbing off his bed, walking to the window, opening it, and flying out. Bulma sighed. She then went down to the kitchen and started dinner.
CHAPTER 3
Trunks found Goten asleep, shivering, in a clearing in the woods. He kneeled next to his best friend and started shaking him.
"Come on, Goten, wake up. Goten, wake up, come on."
Goten's eyes flickered open, he sat up when he saw Trunks.
"What are you doing here?" Goten asked, rubbing his eyes with his arm.
"Come to say sorry," Trunks said twiddeling his thumbs. "Well, I'm sorry for calling you stupid, I guess I'm stupid for calling my bestest friend in the whole world..."
"Really?"
"Really."
"You mean it?"
"I really mean it."
Goten stood up and threw his arms around Trunks. "You're my bestest friend in the whole world too, Trunks."
Trunks put his arms around Goten, holding him close. "Come on, let's go home," Trunks said, finally letting go. Setting off, he shouted back. "Last one home has to sleep on the floor!"
"Hey, no fair, you get a head start!" Goten shouted, trying to catch up to his friend, laughing, he thought Trunks is the best!
