Chapter 7: Heartbroken PT. 2 (Goten's Half)

Goten was in the middle of eating dinner with his family, though eating was an overstatement. Ever since Vegeta hadn't allowed him to see Trunks anymore, he wasn't the happy-go-lucky kid he always was anymore and his appetite had dropped into the pits of hell, along with his heart. "Goten, c'mon honey, it's been 3 weeks since what happened at Bulma's house and you've barely been eating any of your meals. Are you okay?" Chi Chi said as she noticed he still wasn't eating any of his food. Goten then broke down crying hysterically. "I-I-I miss Trunks!!! Waaaah!!" Goten said as he laid his head down on the table. "It's just not fair! W-why won't Vegeta l-let me see him?!" He said bawling. Son, I know it's hard to deal with somethimg like this, but you have to just face the facts right now. You can't see Trunks for right now and that's it." Goku said, saying the exact opposite of what Goten wanted to hear making him cry even more. "Goku!" Chi Chi scolded him. "What? I'm just saying the truth..." Goku said completely oblivious of Goten's feelings. "Listen sweety, I hate to tell you this, but your going to have to just wait until this whole thing blows over with Vegeta and his feelings about you and Trunks' relationship." She said as sweetly and simply as she could put it. "B-but...how long is that gonna take?" He said teary eyed. "I...don't know Goten. But what I do know is that you've got to keep your head up and stay strong for yourself and especially for Trunks. There's going to be alot more people like Vegeta who won't like you and Trunks for who you are, but you can't let them get you down, understand?" She said cupping his face. "I...I guess..." He said wiping his tears away. "Good, now please try to finish your food. You can't be strong for you and Trunks if you don't eat." She said smiling. "Yea! What your mother said!" Goku said as she started devouring his food. "Y-your right! Gotta be strong for me...and Trunks!" He said as he got back to his normal self and followed in his father's footsteps by chowing down on his plate. "Hehe, that's my boy~" Chi Chi said as she happily rubbed his head.

End of Chapter 7

As you can see, Goten is getting back to his old self. As for Trunks, I think he may have something else up his sleeve if his father doesn't want to change his mind on not letting either of them near eachother. Keep on reading to find out what happens and as two more adorable newcomers make there way into this story in the coming chapters. Please review!
