EDIT: Okay, so I really hope you guys like this. I almost gave up on this story, but I decided it was fixable... so read on pwease :3
Bulla was staring out the window in her bedroom thinking. The rain that had just started sprinkling down to earth was pitter-pattering- against the window. The depressing weather was helping her mood, and she just felt like curling up into a ball and dying. Something was bothering her - or, someone. It was Goten.
She knew Goten was in a relationship with Valese, and Valese was her friend. Bulla felt strangely jealous of Valese. Bulla had thought that Goten was hot, but this was the first time she had ever thought of actually dating him. Bulla could be very persuasive, and she knew that she could easily make Goten break up with Valese, but she didn't want to break Valese's heart.
Bulla was SO confused. This was GOTEN. I mean, he was so much older than her. Bulla had just turned 18 a few months ago. She was sure her father wouldn't approve of her with Goten, whom was almost 28. This feeling she felt was new to her, and she had never felt anything like it. She didn't think it was love, but strong longing. She wanted to be with Goten. She wanted him to wrap his arms around her, and kiss her softly.
Bulla felt like screaming. She didn't know what to do and what to think. She wanted to talk to someone, and clear her guilty conscious, but she knew Pan wouldn't understand. Goten was her uncle. She couldn't tell her parents for obvious reasons. None of her other friends were really close enough to her to really understand... except maybe Marron.
Bulla grabbed her cell phone and pulled up Marron's contact. She pushed the talk button and listened to it ring.
Ring
Ring
Ring
Ring...
"I'm sorry, but the person you are trying to call is not availa- "
Damn it.
Goten was pacing back and forth in his room thinking. He didn't do this very often. Normally he was nothing but an airhead, but this was time to get serious. What he decided could very possibly change his whole entire life. He was thinking about Bulla, and Valese.
Goten loved Valese, so he really couldn't figure out why he was feeling this way about Bulla. He had gotten all tingly inside earlier with her. He felt guilty for wanting this with someone whom was barely legal. Bulla was part of the family. She was his niece's best friend. Wanting a relationship with her was wrong. The age gap was just way too big. As Goten was thinking he realized that he 30 years old, had a girlfriend whom he hadn't proposed to yet, and was still living with his parents. All this aside, Bulla was still only 18, and going out with her would be absolutely horrid! He felt horrid just thinking those thoughts!
Goten, in the end, decided that it would be best to dump Valese, because they didn't seem to be getting anywhere in their relationship. Obviously he shouldn't be with her if he had strong feelings for another woman. He wasn't exactly sure if he wanted to be with Bulla either, though. Decisions, decisions.
Goten flew out his window in the direction of Valese's house, thinking about how goofy she could be at times. He would definately miss all of the time they had spent together. Goten had been dating Valese for almost five years now. But, still he couldn't imagine himself spending his whole life with her. He forced all of his second thoughts into the back of his head and sped on. There was no turning back. This was something he had to do, even if he didn't want to.
Goten landed quietly on the ground where Valese lived. Goten walked up to the house, and he knocked on the door lightly, careful not to break it down.
Valese answered almost immediately after the first knock. She jumped into his arms and covered his face with kisses. He knew this would be the last time he would ever feel her lips on his skin ever again. He loved being kissed by her, but maybe he'd find someone else who was an even better kisser.
"Uhh... Valese," Goten started nervously, "I came here to tell you-"
"Guess what Goten? I'm pregnant!" Valese rudely interrupted.
Oh, Dende... What?
Goten was in shock. Guess he couldn't really break up with her now.
Uh-oh.
Goten wanted to start crying at that moment, but he managed to hide his emotions. A baby? Sure, babies were cute, but he didn't want to have one! Not with Valese...
"That's amazing!" Goten said, trying to sound happy. Valese didn't appear to notice the faint hint of melancholy tinted in his words.
Valese clapped her hands, really excited. "Oh Goten, I hope it's a little girl! Then I could name her and dress her in cute little outfits, I hope her hair is red like mothers was…" She went on and on, but all Goten could hear was, "Baby, baby, baby, baby…" over and over again in his head, driving him insane.
"Goten?"
"Uh, what Valese?"
"I asked you what you thought would be a cute name for a girl."
"Uhm… I don't know yet, Valese." He racked his brain, "What would you think of Lillian?"
Valese's face became very serious. "Goten that's one of the boringest names I've ever heard! I was thinking maybe Cupcake, that would be a cute name, and not many other girls have that name. Or... Candy?"
Goten racked his brain for an excuse to leave, desperate to get away. He had to think things through, had to get away before he had a meltdown.
"Uhh… Valese, love, can I go? I only wanted to stop by to say hi. I was supposed to see Trunks at 3. Sorry we couldn't talk longer."
Valese Jumped out of his arms, "Oh, yeah. Stop by later though!" She slammed the door in his face.
Well, that worked out well, Goten thought to himself, Dende, why'd you do this to me? It would be kind of cool to have a kid, but I don't think Valese is the right person.
Bulla had decided that she would tell Goten about her feelings. She knew he probably didn't feel the same way, but she desperately needed to get it out of her system. She wasn't one to keep secrets. She was flying towards his house, and was very surprised when she saw Goten heading her way.
He looked very depressed. His eyes were red, and he was flying a lot faster than normal. She was scared. What was wrong? Did something bad happen? He never cries!
Bulla stopped flying and waved her arms in the air, screaming, "STOP!"
Goten was going to fast. He tried to stop, but couldn't. He ran into Bulla, Making her lose balance and start falling towards the ground.
She was able to catch herself, which Goten was glad for because he knew he would have had to save her if she hadn't. Goten knew that that wouldn't have had a pretty ending. Goten knew that he couldn't be with Bulla, so he wasn't even gonna try.
Bulla was very confused. She had no clue why Goten was sad, but she desperately wanted to find out. She manged to stabilize herself. Being a new flyer, falling like that really took a lot out of her.
"Goten, what's wrong?"
He started crying.
Bulla was shocked. She had never seen Goten so sad. He was always so happy. Bulla wrapped her arms around him, and he rested his head on her shoulder. This seemed to make him cry even more, but Bulla didn't mind. She wanted him to get it all out. Bulla brought them down to the ground. They were in a deserted forest with no sign of wildlife anywhere. She sat down on the wet dirt and let him cry to his heart's content.
Goten was crying for the longest time, but Bulla didn't mind. She just wanted to make him feel better, and to find out what was causing him pain.
"Goten?"
He stopped crying and looked up at Bulla, searching her face for something, anything, that showed she wasn't angry with him. After all, why shouldn't she be? He'd been wasting her time crying like this.
"Y…Yes?"
"What's wrong?"
Goten started crying again. He felt like he should tell her this. He could trust Bulla. "It's Valese… She's pregnant."
Oh, my! That's horrible! Bulla thought to herself. She was in a state of shock herself. She figured she couldn't be with Goten, but it made her sort of jealous knowing that someone else was having his kid. Gross, right? Why do I feel this way? Bulla also felt sort of confused. So Goten didn't want kids? Or just not with Valese?
"Bulla, are you alright?" Goten looked worried.
"Uh… yeah. I'm fine." She tried to bring herself back to reality.
"So you really don't want a kid?"
"No. Not with Valese. I was about ready to break up with her. Goten had stopped crying now, but he stilled wasn't happy.
"Oh." Was all that Bulla said. She looked down at the ground, embarrassed. She was just noticing how close Goten was to her. Their faces were so close to each other...
Goten cupped her chin in his hand and kissed her softly on the lips.
