A/N: This is the sequel to 'Under the moonlight'. It was supposed to be a one-shot, but since I had so many requests for it to be continued… I'll give it a go. I just knew I couldn't do a one-shot properly.

A tail and a kiss

"Goten…"

"?" Goten groaned lightly, pushing sleep aside; his sleep disturbed by an expected visitor. "Trunks…? What's… up? What are you doing here… it's late" he rubbed his eyes, blinking them into focus before turning to the window; it was opened… so Trunks must have entered from there.

"I know… but I need your help…"

Trunks was hyperventilating, his breathing coming in heavy pants and his ki… was irregularly unstable. Immediately, Goten lost his sleep.

"What's wrong?" he sat up, watching his friend; putting his hands on his shoulder in case he needed support.

"It's hard…" Trunks edged closer.

"What's hard? Trunks?" Goten blinked as Trunks sat on his lap, his legs on either side of him. Then he felt it… he gasped, having felt just how hard a certain something was…

"Trunks, we can't! What if my mom hears us?!" Goten resisted the urge to talk above a whisper, for fear she would indeed hear them.

"Unless you intend to be loud… there won't be a problem…" Trunks tagged on Goten's shorts.

"That's not the pro…! Trunks!" Goten freaked out the moment his shorts was lowered; he blushed, cupping his hands in front of him. Too late, Trunks had already seen what he had attempted to hide. He flinched, a sharp intake of breath left him when Trunks pried his hands off; his finger lightly tracing along the underwear covered shaft. The light contact causing it to throb against his will.

"Trunks!" Goten hissed as quietly as he could, his face practically glowing red, if it were possible.

"You want this as much as I do, Goten…" he spoke, his voice heavy with heavy lust. Trunks brought his lips against Goten's, sucking his lips with feverish demand; running his tongue along the younger boy's lower lips.

Goten responded with surprise, opening his lips in his astonishment. Trunks took that as a sign of consent, wasting no time he explored the sweet depths of Goten's mouth with his tongue; pleased when the other boy's tongue, joined his.

Goten's brain and resolve clashed, his brain telling him to stop this at once or someone was going to discover them, in all likelihood, his mother; his willpower… while crumbling, did not seem willing to defer to his brain's judgement. With both at odds, fighting for control, instinct seized the opportunity to gain the upper hand. Like an opportunist waiting for the right moment, it sprung from the shadows.

Trunks purred as a pair of hands went round his waist, pulling him closer. The same hands then reached downwards, gripping his ass firmly; making him whine as their members pressed against each other, hard and warm.

"Ah!" distracted, Goten quickly turned the tables on Trunks; pinning him under him instead. "You cheated" Trunks growled half-heartedly. He forgot to breathe the moment he felt a set of teeth on his neck, not hard enough to break skin but enough to give a clear message. Submit.

Trunks relaxed, Goten had earned his victory today.

Both boys buried themselves under the blankets. Their senses too heavy with need to care if anyone would hear them as moans and groans escaped their lips. Goten was in bliss, his body rejoicing as Trunks opened up to him. He moved his hips, grinding himself against him; moving at a pace that pleased them both… his mouth opened in a wordless moan as Trunks squeezed him tight… pleasure shot through him, shaking the core of his entire being.

"Get up, Goten! I've been calling you for the last 20 minutes already!" Chichi pulled the blankets off Goten, clucking her tongue at a disorientated, drowsy looking Goten, hugging his bolster in a tight bear hug with both hands and legs.

Goten jerked awake. His mind still in a daze, his stomach coated with his orgasm. The dream fading as he focused on the annoyed face of his mother, and no Trunks with him.

"Huh?!" confusion quickly gave way to embarrassment as his mind pieced together why his mother was standing over him and why he was holding his bolster to him, tighter now in an effort to hide the wet mess he made.

"Breakfast's getting cold. Go wash up and eat"

"I'll be there in a moment, mom" he made a hasty dash to the toilet, opting to wash up and clean the mess he made before his mother discovered it.


"Could you go over to Gohan's when you're done, Goten? I need you to give this to him and Videl" she brought out the title deed to the house beside theirs. The extension unit meant for Gohan and his family. "It should take about 2 more months then your brother can move in"

"Great news, eh mom?" Goten smiled. "Ah what about dad? Last night… was a misunderstanding after all… hic" he stopped the moment his mother broke the plate she was washing in half, with her bare hands. Oh dear… she was still upset with his father.

"I'll be going now… to pass this" Goten snatched up the title deed and out the door.

Chichi sighed, calming herself down moments after her youngest son left. She threw the broken plate into the trash, bringing her hand to her temple, nursing her oncoming headache… really… that Goku of hers… another child… with Vegeta of all people! And all because of a stupid wish. Unbelievable and infuriating… and it wasn't anyone's fault.

She heard the story, however, it was hard to see pass that this was brought on by a wish, and not by the deliberate actions of her husband and Vegeta (if only she knew). Nevertheless, it felt no less, a betrayal; the mere thought that there was another child, one that belonged to her husband but not from her. It made the circumstances surrounding the unborn all the more like an illegitimate child, born out of wedlock, outside a marriage.

How was Bulma taking it, she wondered… had she felt the same way she did. Perhaps a little, still… what's done is done; it cannot be reversed or returned. Not even the dragon balls could do that. It would make no difference from taking a life; an innocent life. Not even she could steel herself enough to stoop to that degree. She wasn't sure how she would handle the situation when it was born and her Goku… well she knew he would want to see the kid. It was going to be a part of his life and so, a part of theirs, hers as well… one thing at a time… she wasn't in the clearest of mind, having received the shocking news just yesterday… she was still mentally shocked and emotions were raw, she did not have the will or strength to be unprejudiced in her judgement at this moment. It wouldn't be fair to talk things over with Goku, or her children in her current state. She would give herself some time; time to calm and think with a clearer head before they all sat down and discussed their next course of action.

"Thanks Goten. You want to stay for lunch?" Gohan asked as he kept the title deed.

"Nah, I'm good. I'll be heading over to Capsule Corps after this. Oh… and Trunks read your article, he's interested in it too so… we'll be waiting to read the rest of it ok?" Goten gave a thumbs up.

"I'll give you two the first copies when it's done. By the way Goten… did mom and dad fight again? I asked her to get dad to bring the title deed over and… she had this edge in her tone that dad's not home?"

"Oh… I'll let dad tell you that, onichan… but heads up… it's really weird and… hard to believe. Oh it's got something to do with the dragon balls; I'm heading there to find out myself. See you!" he stopped. "Oh! onichan. How did you know… Videl was 'the one'?"

"What? Oh… well. It's difficult to explain. You enjoy spending time with them… want to protect them… those types of things" Gohan did his best to explain, feeling a little awkward for a grown man. "You'll know when you meet someone you like, Goten. It's not always the same for everyone. Just… don't confuse love with lust and… you're not seeing anyone yet right? Has mom or dad taught you about… things yet? And about condoms?"

"Onichan!" immediately both brothers blushed.

"Oh. Then it's fine. haha…" Gohan took off his glasses, cleaning it to disguise his embarrassment.

"Never mind… thanks… I'll be going now" Goten quickly excused himself out the door. He took to the sky; making his way towards Capsule Corp.

*I'll find out myself*


"IT savvy you might be, but you are no midwife, woman"

"Do you doubt your beautiful, genius wife, Vegeta? I may not have the experience of one, but I did a lot of research and I've had two children before, I know what I'm doing. Unless, if you rather have outside assistance?"

"Fine whatever. Here" Vegeta handed his blue top to Goku, lying on the cot, next to the sonogram machine. "Fuckingtastic, more audience" he grumbled, glaring at the door just before it opened; revealing Trunks and Goten.

"Hey Goten" Goku beamed.

"Dad" he waved with a smile. "Vegeta-san, Bulma-san" he greeted politely.

"You're both just in time. Want to see the baby?" she asked.

"Yeah!"

Both boys answered with such enthusiasm that Vegeta groaned.

"Alright, just so you know what's going to happen, Vegeta. I'm going to apply this water based gel over your abdomen, then this, which is called the transducer, will be used; there will be some pressure, but there's no need for concern. It will produce the ultrasound waves and produce the image, which is what we're going to see on this screen"

"Yeah whatever" Vegeta tried to look as disinterested as possible, downplaying any hint of elation he felt.

Goku on the other hand, was more direct in his approach, grinning from ear to ear; eager to get started. Vegeta rolled his eyes, honestly, it took very little to get that big guy this pumped up; then again… this might just be the first time he's actually getting an 'inside' look at any of his offspring before birth.

Vegeta frowned as the Bulma applied the cold gel to his warm skin, hating the feel of that slimy 'goo'.

The machine was next, humming in the background as the transducer was placed gently over Vegeta's belly. Bulma took her time, scanning, all the while monitoring the screen for the image they were looking for. The whole room went silent, waiting, watching…

Vegeta felt a slight resistance, his little pinky twitched as it was held hostage; he spied its source from the corner of his eye… Goku's pinky, interlaced with his. Cunning bastard, he had taken the opportunity whilst everyone's attention was on the screen, positioning his 'attack' where Bulma or the boys couldn't see. Gently, away from everyone's view; Vegeta crooked his finger, holding, interlacing their little pinkies.

"Ah! There you are" Bulma exclaimed, in an excited tune; like she had just outdone herself again.

Immediately 4 pairs of eyes and faces glued onto the medium sized screen; Bulma and the two boys in the immediate front, while Goku leaned over Vegeta for the last spot, giving the pregnant Saiyan no room to view the screen.

"The fuck" Vegeta glared. Using his hand, he pulled Goku away from the screen and pushed Trunks, who happened to be closer to him, aside.

"Alright boys, there's plenty of room. Don't fight" Bulma looked back at the screen.

"What the fuck is that?" Vegeta could not make out what he was seeing, he strained his eyes; tried as hard as he could and still nothing. Everyone else in the room didn't know what to make of the light and dark shadings or the lines on the screen either.

"It's hard to know what to look for. It takes a long time and study to know what you're looking at…" she explained then pointed to the outline of a line. "See this? This is the spine… and this oval shape connecting it? This is the baby's head. Let me turn this up… there… hear that little thumping? That's the heart"

"Eh?! That's really loud!" Goku exclaimed, grinning at the sound of the child's heartbeat. "That's a very long and crooked spine…" Goku observed. "Is it alright?"

"The spine stops here, Son-kun… here are the legs… the 'crooked spine'… looks to me like a tail"

That very sentence brought a pleasant shiver down Vegeta's spine. A tail… A new Saiyan. After so many years… he smiled, unable to stop himself. Goku mirrored his delight.

"Is it a boy or a girl?" Goku asked.

"I can't tell at this stage… Oh… it's turning. And now… its back's facing us, I guess it's had enough of us watching it"

"No surprise and I don't blame it, Bulma. With you probing it as long as you have"

"I'm more inclined to say it takes after you, Vegeta" she countered. "Antisocial, grouchy and all"

"Hn"

"Well I guess this ends today's session. We can have another next month, and twice a month when the due date draws closer. Again, I'm not sure if it takes 9 months like a human does, Vegeta. You better inform me at the slightly complication or if you feel anything unusual"

"Fine, Bulma"

"Yokata ne, Vegeta-san" Goten smiled at Vegeta, who ignored him. Typical. "Neh, since everything's ok… Got any plans, Trunks? If no, why don't we go out? You know… that place we used to go when we were kids?"

"The theme park? You sure you're not reliving your second childhood already, Goten?" Trunks smirked.

"Oh come on! It's family theme and there's nothing there that says two overgrown boys can't play. You and I have seen adult parents play too, come on? It'll be fun… It won't be fun and it can get miserable and lonely going alone…" Goten gave a pouting face, the same he used during their childhood days.

"I'll go, can't have you miserable and lonely, going alone. We'll eat out, my treat" Trunks smirked and went to get his wallet. "Mom, dad, I'll be back later"

"Have fun, you two" Bulma waved.

"Goten" Goku called his son back. "Your mother, is she still upset?"

"Very, dad… she broke the plate into two, with her bare hands" Goten nodded, confirming it wasn't a good time to go back yet. Goku sighed for a moment before his face broke into a smile again. How quickly his mood changed.

"Oh she'll understand eventually" He patted Goten's shoulder, nudging him towards the door after Trunks. "Go ahead and have fun"

"See you dad and don't worry! Mom won't stay mad too long" he ran after Trunks.


"Man… I've almost forgotten how it felt… it feels great not being too 'short' for the fun rides, then again… now that we're all grown up… it's not as thrilling as it would have been when we were kids" Goten leaned back against the bench, resting up after rounds of rides, too many for him to keep track of.

"And who was the one screaming from the top of the roller coaster earlier, Goten?" Trunks passed a bottle of iced tea to Goten. "We can go at faster speeds and I don't hear you squeal"

"Hey! I didn't! It's a different experience altogether being that high up and not being able to control where you go and I was having fun. I wasn't scared. You, on the other hand… during the ghost hunters ride…" Goten snickered.

"Hey! I was startled, not scared!" Trunks immediately 'corrected' him.

"You literally 'flew' into my side, any further and you'd be in my lap and arms, Trunks" Goten couldn't stop grinning.

"Here. Have some to keep your mouth busy" Trunks grabbed a fistful of cotton candy from his stick and shoved it into Goten's mouth, rendering him temporarily speechless. Goten ate the sugary treat, the whole time grinning at Trunks who huffed with a blush. "Ready to call it a day and get some dinner?" he changed the subject.

"Yeah! Let's go!"

Trunks shook his head, nothing like food to distract his friend.

"So what really happened?" Goten looked up from the tatami, comfortably lying on his belly; holding a console controller with two hands. "With your dad I mean"

"From what my mom told me, the Nameks summoned Porunga months back and one of the wishes was granted to your dad" Trunks joined Goten on the floor, taking up the second controller.

"And my dad wished for a baby?" Goten selected a character in the versus mode.

"No. Our dads talked about the Saiyan race and all… then somehow the topic of Saiyan babies came up and Goku-san mentioned something about my dad being the carrier or bearer, don't ask me how or why. My mom doesn't know and my dad isn't telling, whatever the case… Porunga granted that wish and you saw what was on the screen this morning" Trunks selected a character.

"So it was due to a wish and not anything genetic about the Saiyan race?" Goten maintained a cool exterior, inside… he was relieved. Thoughts of a dream returned; the 'Gotenk' dream in particular. Still… confused as he might be, he still wanted to know where these 'feelings' stood and what they meant.

"That's right. We'll gather the dragon balls after the baby's born and reverse the wish, get rid of the female organs inside my dad's body"

"Yeah I suppose that's a good idea. So… how are you and everyone taking this news? I mean… my mom's freaking out but I think she'll be ok… and it's weird but that makes us its brother right? If you consider that it's our dads' baby" Goten's character gave an upper cut.

"It does, I suppose… my mom's taking things a step at a time. I think it's quite likely the baby will stay here with us… my dad would likely insist on it, that much I'm sure…" Trunks' character used a super finish.

"AH!" Goten's chosen character received a knockout blow from his opponent, Trunks' chosen character. Goten checked the time. "One more round, then I'll leave"

"It's late anyway, why don't you stay the night? You can join us for breakfast before you go tomorrow. I'm sure your dad would like that" Trunks invited him, as he had done many times before.

"Really? Great! I'll call my mom. Don't restart without me!" Goten reached into his pocket and brought out his handphone.

They rested where they were most comfortable; like boys usually do. Too lazy to keep the console beyond switching it off and far too tired after a whole day of fun to get up and sleep on the beds; they sprawled on the tatami.

Trunks dozed off, breathing gently as sleep beckoned him, welcoming him back to the land of dreams. Goten slept as well, snoring lightly almost similar to his father's loud ones; his sleep disturbed sometime in the night when Trunks rolled over, practically rolled into his space.

Goten blinked, turning back and realised that Trunks had draped himself over him. Gently, he moved him back… taking extra care not to wake him, watching his friend as he moved him; Trunks looked so unguarded, so trusting; so inviting. Goten absentmindedly ran a finger along Trunks' cheek, feeling the smooth skin under his fingers. He had touched Trunks before, but only during their sparring sessions but never under such circumstances; the difference tonight had his blood rush downwards.

Goten became arousingly aware of the tent he was sporting and the restriction of space in his pants made it uncomfortable.

Trunks groaned sleepily in protest and Goten held his breath; Trunks squirmed, turning to his side, unconsciously adjusting himself, before snuggling comfortably into his pillow. Trunks resumed his light breathing, indicating he had gone back to sleep. Goten let out the breath he held. He breathed slowly, willing his erection to calm… the bathroom was some ways along the corridor and he didn't want to risk being discovered with a hard on. Thankfully, it took some pity on him and calmed down again.

Goten leaned over, watching, making sure Trunks was indeed asleep. Satisfied that he was, he leaned closer; catching a whiff of his friend's scent before pressing his lips gently over his. After so many dates, all of them unsuccessful and his hesitance to make a commitment to anyone; he finally understood why.

All this time… he already had his sights on someone else. Trunks.

"It's you I want…" he voiced it softly, more to himself than anyone else. Now that he knew… what was he to do next? It was too soon, with everything that had taken place. One thing at a time… he can wait… it'll give him a much clearer picture and head to be sure, and Trunks… he would have to talk to him, but not now… there was enough on their plates already.

Sleep… he would cross the bridge when he came to it. He closed his eyes, acknowledging to himself what he now knew, turning to his side once again to catch up on sleep.

Beside him, with his back towards him, Goten had no idea Trunks' eyes opened, his mind racing as wildly as his was… Having heard his confession and felt that kiss…

To be continued ~


To answer a few people, all of them anonymous for reasons I won't disclose.

It's definitely more towards a GXV fic than a VXB fic, but I am writing it in stages. A few of you have read 'Saiyan Enough' and while I know this fic should not be linked to that story in any way (yet), you'll notice that Goku's acceptance of his feelings towards Vegeta also took time.

I'm not keen on the idea of killing off either women or making them cheat on their husbands and have them use that as ammo to leave their wives. In all due respect, Goku and Vegeta had indirectly also cheated on their wives by human terms in this fic. I'm also trying to portrait them as close to the original characters as I could and making them stoop to that level just didn't seem right to me, as much as I didn't like certain characters and their attitudes. I'll be honest and say Chichi is one of them.

The other thing is, I don't believe in wishing problems away or killing off 'the obstacle' in their path to happiness whether its natural, unfortunate circumstances or murder. I feel it's too convenient a way to get away with problems that no one wants to take responsibility for and 'death' might have been an easy way out for the living (Not so in real life, just to be clear).

So, I'm trying a different approach; which is to have the guys embrace the consequences / rewards of their actions and how it affects the people around them (if they knew, the only case right now would be Bulma who knew the truth). (I likely won't write everyone's prospective though)

I hope that explains things.

As always I hope everyone enjoyed this.

Don't forget to tell me what you think, have a great day everyone
