A/N: Ok, so you're lookin through my stories and you see this one is romance. You're probably thinking "What the-! She's writing romance now!" Well, maybe not exactly that but let me give you some info here. This is pretty much to see if I can write a good romance fic. If I like writing it, I'll probably write more, but for now this is my test subject. It will have bits of humor every now and then, so it's not completely serious. Give me your opinions, but be nice! Remember that I'm a beginner at writing romance.

Disclaimer: I don't own DB/Z/GT, but as always I own Stephanie and Raven. Now enjoy.

Chapter 1

Raven looked across the table full of food at the black haired girl who sat across from him. She eagerly finished her meal as she babbled on about the restaurant's selection of music. He smiled. He felt proud that the daughter of Bulma and Vegeta was his girlfriend, much to her dad's dismay. The Saiyan Prince had been upset about it for a few days, but he seemed to have mellowed out after a while.

"Raven?"

"Yeah?" He snapped back to reality.

"Are you feeling ok?" Stephanie asked as her brows furrowed slightly. "You haven't really eaten much..."

"Oh, yeah, I'm fine!" He said with a quick glance at his half-eaten food. "I was busy listening to you."

"You're sweet," she said as her cheeks turned pink. A small giggle managed to escape. He loved it when she laughed.

"Hey, I'm gonna go pay for the meal, ok?"

"All right," she replied as she wiped her napkin across her mouth. "I'll be right there."

He stood and left the table. It was a good thing they ordered the all-you-can-eat buffet. Who knows how much the owner would rack up if they had ordered something from the menu.

"All right," the gangly teen behind the counter mumbled to himself. "You total comes to twenty-two fifty."

Raven dug the money out of his pocket and handed it to the boy as his girlfriend joined him.

"Thank you. Come again," the boy said in a rehearsed tone.

The two Saiyans left the restaurant while full stomachs and smiles on their faces. Soon the girl began rambling on about the beautiful fountain and spouts that shot water into lovely patterns that stood outside the restaurant.

The older of the two wasn't listening. He dug into his pocket and felt a small, box-like item. He knew he should be listening, but something more pressing was crowding his thoughts.

The two strolled down the street hand in hand as Stephanie continued chatting. She waved to some one on the other side of the street. Raven recognized her as one of his girlfriend's friends.

"Give me a call sometime tomorrow!" Stephanie called.

"All right, will do," came the reply.

The two continued down the street and before long Capsule Corp came into view. Raven took a deep breath and glanced around. No one else was in sight. It was now or never.

"Hey, I've been thinking lately," he said as they came to a stop.

"About what?" She asked with a sly smile.

"About our future," he replied with a silent gulp.

"Oh? I have too."

"Really?" This was a good sign. It meant that she had hopefully been thinking about what he was thinking about. "Ok, what have you been thinking?"

She smiled. She wasn't going to be the one to pop the question. Just that day Bulma had told her guys were the ones who were supposed to ask important stuff like that.

"I've been thinking...about stuff," she said with a joking grin.

"Well, I'm afraid my thought are probably more serious than stuff," he knelt down on one knee and reached in his pocket and produced a small black case. He opened it and silver ring with a medium sized diamond stuck out of the velvet case. "Will you marry me?"

A large smile almost too big for her face appeared at the question. "Yes, I'll marry you."

-------

Trunks looked out the window of his room and saw his sister and Raven walking down the sidewalk. His sister had an unusually large smile on her face. The teen could only imagine what they had done that made her smile like that.

"Goten!" Trunks smacked the back of his friend's head.

The other teen scowled as he rubbed his head and set down the Playstation 2 control. "What, Trunks? Why'd you hit me?"

"They're back," he stated with a grin. He liked kidding with his friend like that.

"Wow! Go alert the police..." Goten scowled as he resumed playing his game.

"I think Raven might have finally popped the question," Trunks whispered. Goten wasn't supposed to have told anybody that his cousin was thinking about marrying Stephanie, but the teen couldn't resist letting Trunks in on it.

"Well, just act surprised 'kay?" Goten whispered back as he dropped the control. "If Raven knows I told you, he'll kill me!"

"He wouldn't kill you," the older boy comforted as the two heard the front door open. "He might just beat up really bad!"

"Wow, thanks..."

The two hurried out of Trunks' room to greet the half-Saiyan girl. Sure enough, she was still smiling.

"Have a good time, sis?" Trunks asked innocently.

"It was wonderful," she ruffed her younger brother's lavender hair. "What have you two been up to?"

"Oh, nothin' much," Goten answered. "I'm spending the night, by the way."

The girl just nodded as she glanced around the room. "Where's Mom, Dad, and Bra? I have something I need to tell you guys!"

"Dad's in the Gravity Room, as always," Trunks replied.

"That figures," the girl strolled down the hall in the direction of the Gravity Room.

"And Mom's probably in her lab."

"That figures too."

The two boys followed Stephanie down the hall, snickering quietly as they went. The three stopped in front of the Gravity Room. They could hear Vegeta working out inside. Neither boy wanted to interrupt him, but the half-Saiyan girl did so freely.

"Dad!" She shouted so he could hear her through the steel door. "Meet me in the upstairs living room!"

There was what they guessed was a pause, but no reply.

Satisfied with alerting her Dad, the girl turned to the two boys who quickly stopped snickering and said, "Go find Bra. I'll get Mom."

With that she continued down the hall. Both boys were grinning as they bounded up stairs.

-------

"Ok, so what's up, Steph?" Bulma asked as she took her seat next to her husband.

"Yeah!" Trunks piped up. "What's going on?"

"Ok," she took a deep breath and went on, "I've gathered you all here to tell you that...Raven has asked me to marry him!"

Bulma jumped up from her seat and rushed over to give her daughter a bear hug, while Vegeta's jaw dropped to the floor. Trunks and Goten started chanting how they would be cousins and Bra hugged her sister when her Mom finally let go.

"I can't believe it!" Bulma exclaimed excitedly as the boys continued their chant in the background. "I've always wanted to help you with you're wedding, but I never knew it would be so soon!

"Mom, I'm twenty-three," Stephanie pointed out.

"But time passes by so fast!" The blue hair genius continued. "We'll have to get you a dress and a cake! Oh, and find a church for you to be married in. And get you some bridesmaids, and..."

While Bulma continued rambling on, Stephanie turned to her Dad, who she hoped was pleased. Well, as pleased as he could be knowing his daughter was going to marry into Goku's family.

"Dad?" She asked. "What do you think?"

By that time, Vegeta had managed to pull his jaw up off the floor. He was unsure about his feelings then. He wanted his daughter to be happy, but couldn't she be happy with another guy? Even a puny Earthman?

"That's great," he managed to fake being happy. He'd have a talk with his wife about this later.

She grinned and gave him a hug. "I'm so glad you approve!"

"I can finally show Chichi that she's not the only one who can have a grandchild!" Bulma announced proudly.

"Mom!" Stephanie held up her hands. "I'm only engaged and you're thinking about grandchildren!"

"She's got the bug," Goten whispered to his friend.

"Yeah, now I'll never hear the end of it," Trunks joked. "But it's Steph's turn first."

-------

Raven looked at all his family who had gathered in Goku and Chichi's living room. This was his big moment and he couldn't wait to share it.

"Ok," he began. "Tonight I asked Stephanie to marry me and she said yes!"

Unlike Vegeta, Goku was the first to congratulate his nephew. Chichi soon followed with a bear hug that rivaled Burma's. Gohan, Videl, and Pan also congratulated him and wished him luck.

"I wonder if Vegeta realizes what this means..." Goku pondered. "We'll be related! In a long distance sort of way, but still!"

"I'm sure he's thrilled, Dad," Gohan said sarcastically.

"I'm going to help you with your wedding just like I helped Gohan!" Chichi announced to her nephew.

"What about-" Raven started.

"We're not going to have another cake problem like last time," she interrupted. "I'm going to get Bulma to get the cake."

"Ok, good," the Saiyan sighed as he wiped his forehead.

"Lets see," Chichi pulled out a notepad and a pencil. "You'll need a suit, a church, a ring..." she continued mumbling to herself.

"It's not as complicated as Mom makes it sound," Gohan assured. "She makes everything sound like that."

Raven smiled and thanked him.

"And a wedding date!" Chichi screamed. "Oh I almost forgot about the most important thing! When are you two getting married?"

"Umm...we haven't decided," Raven said as he held up his hands. "We're going to decide it in the next few days."

"Ok, good!" She continued scribbling stuff down on her paper. "And I'll need to get with Bulma tomorrow to find out what she's going to take care of..."

Raven sighed and smiled. It sounded complicated, but he figured she knew what she was doing. Besides, she'd already had one wedding and helped Gohan with his. The Saiyan just hoped they wouldn't have a problem with the cake...
