Author's Note: I'm thinking right now this story may reach 8 chapters but I'm still not sure. I'm surprised there isn't more stuff about these two. I know it's incest but it's still adorable.

Her mother told her that Goku had went out somewhere. Pan waited all day for him to come home. When night had come and Goku had not returned she decided to head out and find him again. She found him sitting next to the river where he loved to fish. She flew down and landed next to him. His knees were held close to his chest and he was crying. She protectively wrapped her arms around him, his warm tears falling onto her arm.

"It's okay. Talk to me grandpa. Tell me what's wrong." She asked.

She was starting to worry about him. All this crying, the nightmares, what was happening to him. She wanted to make it all go away. She wanted to see him smile again.

Her looked out at the clear water and answered, "Remember when I said I didn't understand romantic stuff? Well I didn't then but now I do. I didn't understand at first what you were feeling when you had to watch Trunks get married, I didn't understand what it felt like to not be able to love someone. Now I do. I'm not able to love you like I want to Pan." He cried.

"Grandpa what do you mean? We both feel the same way about each other. We can help each other and we understand each other like no one else does. I know you're really hurting grandpa, you can't hide it from me." She said as she rubbed the tears gently off his cheeks.

He let himself stop being the hero and finally for the first time in years he let someone take care of him. He let himself fall onto Pan's shoulder and he cuddled close to her. The tears fell from his eyes, the cries spoke out from his lips. He told her things he had kept hidden for years. He told her how he regretted leaving his family so many times, how he had yet to forgive himself for missing the first 7 years of Goten's life, how he almost couldn't stand to face Pan after he returned from training Uub. When he told her that, Pan asked why?

"Because…you looked up to me and I abandoned you…I don't deserve your love…they call me a hero but I'm nothing like a hero…a hero is perfect and I'm not even close to perfect…" Goku admitted.

She kissed the top of his head and whispered, "You're right I did feel like that at first…but later as I got older I realized you were making a sacrifice too…I knew you really just wanted to be with your family and friends but you knew you had to keep protecting the Earth and training Uub was a way to ensure the Earth would be safe. I understood the sacrifices you were making so I couldn't stay mad at you….I could never stay made at you."

Goku sighed and cried a little more, "I wish we could be together Pan."

"Why can't we?" She asked

"It's incest and besides what about Chi-Chi and I know your mom and dad wouldn't like it." Goku answered.

Pan held his hand and kissed his palm, "Who says they ever have to know. We'll keep it to ourselves. They'll never know. It will be our little secret."

"Would you really be okay with something like that Pan? A secret romance? You'll never be able to have a big wedding or anything like that." He told her. He wanted to make sure this was something she wanted too.

She thought for a moment but she knew what she wanted. She wanted Goku. She wanted to lay down every night and feel him holding her. She wanted to be able to hold him. They both needed someone who could understand them and they understood each other perfectly.

"Yes…I want you and I want to be yours forever. I want us to be what we've needed for so long. I love you more than I can describe, Goku." She answered honestly.

"I love you too, Pan. I'll always love you forever." Goku promised.

Again they kissed but this time the kiss was different. This time they kissed as a couple. The kiss wasn't just for need or comfort, this time the kiss was for love. Two saiyans had made a choice that would change their lives. Little did they know just how much this forbidden love would change everything.
