So if you are at all interested or disinterested in any of my fics please let me know by reviewing.

Simple Truths chapter 2

Trunks woke up next morning startled to what sounded like arguing. Stretching he sat up with a heavy yawn. "Wonder whats going on" He thought as he climbed out of bed to perform he morning rituals. After getting dressed he inched his way to the top of the steps leading from his room and listened in on what ever was going on, quickly hearing a voice he didn't want to hear.

"Damn it Bulma, I know he's here!" A Voice screeched coming from the family room. There was a rather annoyed sigh "Chichi, you have little right to see him right now." Bulma said as she crossed her arms matching the man beside her. "He's my baby damn it! I Want him home now!" She demanded. "Chichi, you hit him and kicked him out of his home. The poor boy came here in tears." Bulma spat. Chichi growled " I know that! I'm trying to apologies to him but A blue haired hag wont let me!" Chichi screamed. "NO!" A voice from the stairs growled. "Trunks honey go back upstairs, you shouldn't be down here right now." Bulma said as Trunks descended the last of the them. "You can't have him, and my moms not a hag." He said as he scowled at her. "Trunks, Is Goten upstairs?" Chichi asked hopelessly. "I'm right here" Another voice called from the kitchen. "Oh Goten, please come to mommy." She pleaded as Goten walked into the room stopping beside Trunks. "Whats wrong, I'm sorry for yesterday. Please come home." She pleaded, holding out her arms. Goten flinched before looking at her open arms and slowly looking away, causing Trunks to grab his hand reassuringly. Glancing at the two intertwined hands, chichi eyes grew before pointing an accusing finger at Trunks. "I see it now, It's him. You like Trunks" Her face scowled with vengeance "This-this is all your fault! You little brat,you turned my innocent baby Gay" She balled out with her usual over eccentric tears. "Excuse me?" Bulma snapped "Hey wait a minute. I'm still not sure on how I feel about Him, But he's my best friend first Lady and you better bet that I'll protect him. Even if it's from you." Goten smiled at that and let go of his hand. Chichi turned to Goten and smiled as lovingly as possible "Goten, don't you want to come home with mommy?" She asked, taking a step toward him causing Vegeta to step in front of him. "Chichi, he practically afraid of you. He needs his space from you. I think you should leave." Bulma said noticing the hurt in the boys eyes. Chichi loving face turned into a deep scowl "Not with out my Baby!" She screeched angrily. Having enough of the Women,Vegeta stepped in. "I'm Giving you to the count of ten to vacate yourself from my home, don't even think about taking even a second longer. Or I'll throw you out personally, Kakarot be damned" He said cracking his knuckles as he spoke. Speechless but furious, she turned and stomped her way out.

After a few moments of letting the room cool down every ones attention turned to Goten. "Hey, you okay?" Trunks asked before giving the now teary eyed boy a quick hug. Goten shrugged wail wiping his eyes with his sleeve. "Goten, I hope you know that you are always welcome here. However long you need." She ran her hands through his hair before giving him a loving smile. "Trunks, can we go back up stairs? We need to talk" Trunks smiled and nodded. Goten didn't smile but grabbed his hand and began leading him back to his room. "The Brat deserves better" Vegeta said before departing from the room to finish the training a certain harpy interrupted. Bulma looked startled for a second before a smile formed on her face.

Trunks' Room

"Whats wrong?" Trunks asked following the other boy into the room partially shutting the door behind him. Goten sighed and turned his gaze to the floor causing his hair to shadow his eyes. "I can't stay here, it's to much trouble. I should have just left with her." The boy said sadly causing Trunks to frown before huffing and putting his hand on the other boys shoulder. "Just wait a minute okay, Mom said you were welcome to stay. Besides, I want you to stay." Goten looked back up and found a small smile on the others face. "Chibi, I've got my own confession to make." He said before taking a deep breath "We've been best friends for as long as I can remember, and the thought of me like-liking you has crossed my mind a few times before already. Even kinda talked to my grandma about it." Trunks said sheepishly wail a light blush formed above his nose. Goten being Goten simply tilted his head to the side confused casing Trunks to laugh. "What I'm trying to say is, well." Trunks leaned in and gave the other boy an awkward peck on the cheek. Gotens face turned a shade of red that would mack any tomato envy. "Does that mean, you like me?" He asked in a squeaky small voice. Trunks chuckled before nodding "I think so, but we'll figure it out" He answered promptly causing the poor emotionally drained boy to faint. Trunks just sighed wail he shook his head, a sweat drop above his brow. "Now isn't that sweet." A voice said coming from the now fully open door. Trunks turned to find his mother standing in the door video camera in hand. "It's not nice to eavesdrop you know, And turn that thing off!" Trunks lightly growled a deeper blush now on his face. Bulma just smiled as she turned her camera off. "So, I thought you mite like his back, Your grandmothers a natural gossip." That comment caused the boy to facepalm. "So your not mad?" Bulma shook her head "Of course not honey, I never really cared whom you fell for. But I just had this feeling. Now my little boys growing up." She said letting out an over exaggerated cry. Causing the boy to sigh in embarrassment. "Well you hear that Chibi, welcome to the family." Trunks said happily

Three weeks have past in the Briefs home and Gotens demeanor has seemed to get better along with the boys growing friendship. Over the first week, the boys had figured out there relationship. With an added talk with Bulma to figure out what hey couldn't (A.N an altered version of the birds and the bees.) The Boys still mostly acted like the friends they are with the added of hand hold and awkward cheek pecking. (A.N. They're kids)

It's currently dinner time in the Briefs house and the goes on a normal. "Boy, If you're Still hungry then eat your fill, I've told you this many times now. In this house you may eat till full." Vegeta said calmly as he ate his food. "Yes Father" The table grew silent as the food stopped being eaten. "What was that boy?" Gotens eyes went wide wail Trunks chocked on his food. Goten panicked "I'm Sorry Sure, I-I mean Mr. Vegeta... I didn't mean to." The man laughed. "Now isn't that funny, You calling me your father." He laughed again "Vegeta!" Bulma cut in "Oh come off it Woman, Gohan aside. I've done more for the boy then that no good clown. The boy needs somebody to call Father, Better me then an empty seat." Vegeta finished before showing off is patient smirk before returning to his food.

Dinner came and passed and the peaceful evening was coming to and end, that was until a load knock was rapped on the door. Annoyed dragged himself from his chair in the family room to answer the door. "Gohan?" Trunks asked as he opened the door. "Hey Trunks, I'm here for Goten." Trunks narrowed his eyes "You can't have him". Gohan tensed "Sorry Trunks but he's coming home with me" He lightly pushed Trunks aside and entered the house. "May I ask what it is that you are doing in my house Boy?" Vegeta asked promptly appearing out of nowhere. "I'm getting my little brother and leaving" He answered quickly. Vegeta sneered "The Boy stays, he as of yet has no desire to return to that harpy of a woman." Gohans energy spiked "He's a minor, he doesn't have a say so in the matter. I'm taking him home, you can't stop me." He said cracking a smile "Boy is that a challenge?" He asked putting a hand on the boys shoulder. Within a second he turned to take a swing at Vegeta when a Yellow blur appeared in front of him catching the fist. "Don't you touch him!" A super saiyan Goten yelled "Goten" Gohan narrowed his eyes in confusion. "Sorry bout that, but Chibi's kinda bonded with dad over the past few weeks." Trunks said as he stepped beside Goten and going Super "Get Out!" Gohan sighed "Fine, I'll go. But I disappointed in you Goten." That's all he said before leaving. The boys powered down and Goten sighed "Sorry everyone, maybe I should just go" He Whispered. "No, there will be none of that. I've welcomed you into this home, and you are free to leave if wanted, but I will not have you leaving in feeling sorry for us." Trunks smiled and glomped Goten as he looked up at his father. "Thank you" he said before dragging Goten back into the family you bent on finishing there movie before it was deemed time for them to go tot bed. Now reseated beside Trunks, Goten looked around and smiled "thanks everyone, I really appreciate all this." Goten smiled softly before getting a peck on the cheek. "No problem Chibi, we'll take care of you." Gotens smile grew wider "I love you Trunks" he said before glomping him playfully.

The night finished quickly and sleep swept by fast. Now the next morning the boys were bow awake and now very much bored to say the least. " Hey Trunks, do you ever get mad when I sometimes call Mr. Vegeta Dad? He asked as he rested his head on the other boys shoulder. "No not really, isn't yer fault hes your father figure." Trunks smiled and wrapped his arm around him. Goten looked up at him before quickly kissing him on the lips. Trunks smiled but it quickly turned into a small frown. "What, did I do something wrong?" he asked shyly slightly panicked. "It's okay, Mom just said we aren't aloud to do that yet. I don't want to get in trouble, that's all." Goten frowned "Sorry" Trunks sighed "Hey I said it was okay Chibi." He said before playfully nudging him. Goten still frowned "Hey, whats wrong?" Trunks asked worriedly, things have been going good the past few weeks and Goten seemed to be acting odd dismorning. "T-Trunks I want to go visit my mom, I don't want to stay just visit." Trunks frowned "Your not having second thoughts about staying here are you" he asked sheepishly "No! It's not that, it's great here. I just want to go see her and let her now I'm okay and stuff." He answered quickly. "Okay Chibi, but you better come back" Goten laughed full heartily "Sure, but I wonted you and Mr. Vegeta to come with me anyways." He sighed "Actually I'm kinda afraid to go there by myself." Trunks laughed a little at that, getting a small blush out of Goten for it. "Sure Chibi, I think we can get him to come."

Mount Paozu

Landing at there destination some time later, the tree walked up to the c cottage. "If it's all the same to you boys, I'll remain out here" Vegeta said wail leaning on the outside wall of the home. Nodding the boys slowly made there way to the door before Goten nervously started knocking. Light foot steps could be herd before the door opened "G-Goten my baby!" Chichi squealed as she slowly tried to reach for him, Trunks stepped in her way blocking her. "Hi Mom, how've you been?" He asked shyly. "A big mess with out you honey" She went to reach for him again but got denied by Trunks. "M-may we com in?" He asked politely. "Goten honey, you live here you don't have to ask that." She said calmly moving out of the boys way so that could enter. "Mom I'm not staying, I'm just came to tell you that I was okay, I'm going back home with Trunks." Chichi bowed her head "Goten I am so sorry for what I did to you. I more than overreacted. I want you to know that I love you with all my heart, so please come home honey. I miss you." the Woman pleaded. "I told you I'm not staying. Besides, you wouldn't want a pervert like me living anyways." He growled out. "You know I didn't mean that, I love you honey." She reached out to grab Goten and drew him into a deep hug. Getting a scowl from Trunks. "Lets go Goten, Dad's probably getting impatient" Goten tore himself from his mothers arms "Kay Trunks, by mom. Lets go." Chichi cried as she watched the two boys leave.

Capsule Corp

"So, how'd it go?" Bulma frowned at the sad look on the boys face getting a shrug in response to her question. "The boy left the women in tears." Vegeta laughed out as Trunks put the other boy in a headlock. "Trunks knock it off" He laughed out playfully as the boys started to wrestle with each other. "Um, Goten." The mood in the room softened as Goten looked up from his tangled position on the floor, cloths wrinkled and hair messed up. "Yes?" he asked quickly. "There is some one here to see you okay, now don't get mad." Goten eyes narrowed at the figure walked into the room. "Hi Sport, how've you been." Gohan asked with a natural Son smile on his face, hand scratching the back of his head. "What did you want" He asked suspiciously. "Look, sorry about the other night, I just miss you bro." he said still with the same Son smile. Vegeta growled "I thought I told you to stay away." Gohan frowned "Sorry Vegeta, I just needed to see him." He said softly. "Can't you just leave him alone, he's happy here." Trunks snacked Gotens hand "I'm Staying" Goten said wail trying to mimic Vegetas smirk. Gohan had to laugh. "I mean it!" He growled out. Trunks sighed again before kissing Goten on the cheek nearly flooring Gohan I the process. "The hell was that?" Gohan asked pointing a accusing finger at the boys. Every one seemed confused. "What are you talking about Gohan, we've been doing this for a while now. We're, well...Together" Gohans jaw hit the floor. "I can't believe this, is this why you ran away Goten?" Gohan asked still flabbergasted. "Run away, Gohan is that what chichi told you?" Bulma asked, he nodded "He didn't run away, he came out in confidence to you mother and she flipped beat on him, then kicked him out." Gohan looked a Bulma, disbelief in his eyes. "You're joking right? Darn it. She told me she got into an argument with him, She told me he got mad and took off." This turn of events sharply angered the adults int the room. "Sh-she told you I ran away?" Goten asked shakily. Trunks quickly grabbed the steadily crying boy in a hug. This was to much for the occupants of the room and a new low for Chichi. "She threw you out for saying you were gay?" Gohan asked, he didn't know whether or not to be mad or just laugh at the stupidity of it all. Gohan quickly snatched his little brother for Trunks before wrapping him u in a strong hug. "G-Gohan?" the young adult looked around the room at all the concerned faced and tightened his hug on the boy. Goten I'm so sorry. The other day, I thought you just being a brat. He looked over at Trunks. "I'm sorry guys, I didn't know. Goten started crying heavily. Bulma smiled slightly as Gohan rubbed circles into his little brothers back reassuringly. "It's okay Gohan, it's okay." Gohan stood back up Goten still in his arms and looked toward Trunks. "So you like my brother do you?" he asked the boy whom started blushing nervously under the gaze of the young adult. Gohan smirked "Then you better take good care of him, there isn't a fore in this dimension or the next that cane protect you form me if you don't." He lightly threatened, there was soft wet hiccuping laughter as Goten locked wet yes with his brother. "Don't worry about it Gohan, we're solid." Gohan laughed. Gohan wiped at his eyes before jumping down from his brother to return to Trunks' side. "So, what are you going to about the harpy?" Gohan didn't answer but gave Bulma a concerned look before turning his attention back to the boys, looking them over. "So, this is happening?" He asked as her waved his finger back and forth between the tow boys. His answer was them holding each others hand. Bulma smiled, Gohan sighed and Vegeta continued brooding. "Well Sorry Bro, but I gotta get home, Videls waiting for me." Goten smiled the son smile then frowned . "Gohan wait, your not mad at me are you?" He asked sheepishly fearing a negative answer. "Of course not kiddo, it's just that I ow Videl money now." He said with a sigh. "Money, what for" Bulma asked with a raised eye brow. Gohan groaned and glanced at the boys "I lost a bet" He said simply getting a laugh from Bulma and a smirk from Vegeta. "How much?" she asked. He groaned again. "30,000 zen" (A.N. $300.00 US) He huffed before taking off.
