Happy Reading!


Goku POV

The house hasn't been the same since Gohan left. There wasn't the same lightness and happiness around the house. I missed him so much sometimes that it killed me. Chichi and Goten could see the difference in my behavior, even Goten had asked me why Gohan hadn't come back because he could see how sad I was. Every time I would just tell him that Gohan couldn't come back because he was so happy where he was now.

"But...That's not fair daddy! You need to be happy too!" He says to me as I lay in his room playing with his toy cars. I smile at him, he was a smart boy. I look at him and sigh, not really knowing what to say for a moment. I was happy where I was. Seeing Goten everyday made me one of the happiest people in the world. But I couldn't kid myself, I would much rather be with Gohan right now. I look at Goten and smile at him, for a little kid he sure was smart.

"You're right Goten, how about later today after you get all of your chores done we will go see Gohan okay?" I say to him, his eyes widen as he smiled with excitement and started to fly around his room. I laugh and watch him before I pull him to me. "But we can't tell your mother, we have to tell her that you're going to Bulma's to see Trunks okay? If she knew where we were going she would never let us leave." I say to him. He nods and smiles at me before he hurried downstairs and starts his chores. I go to my room and take a much needed shower.

Ever since Gohan had left, I never felt the need to do necessary things. I basically stayed in bed all day until Goten drug me out to play with him. I really needed to see Gohan, it had already been a month since he moved out and I only went to see him a handful of times, mainly when Chichi wouldn't see me leave the house. As soon as I'm out of the shower, I put on a pair of sweatpants and a tank top. I go to Goten's room waiting for him there.

He came in not even five minutes later. "Daddy I'm ready! Can we go see Trunks now?" He asks me smiling. I smile at him, I loved this boy to death. I pick him up and kiss his hair before we both head downstairs. I look over at Chichi who was watching television. I prayed that this worked. She looks over at the both of us and glares for a moment.

"And where do you think you two are going?" She asks us. I look at Goten and he gets down out of my arms and goes to her hugging her tight. I smile a little when I see the surprised look on her face. She looks down at him and strokes his hair. "Where are you going Goten?" She asks him.

"Me and dad want to go to Bulma's house, I wanna play with Trunks and he was going to train with his dad..please mom can we go pleaseeee?" He asks her as he puts his hands together and gives her the puppydog face. I smile at him, that kid knew how to butter someone up big time. I smile at him and run a hand through my hair, I hoped that he never used that on me because there would be no way that I could resist that adorable face.

Chichi smiles at him and strokes his hair nodding. "Sure you can sweetie...Goku...don't keep him out too late." She says to me. I smile and nod to her as I look at Goten. He smiles excitedly and jumps around before he goes back to me and grabs my hand.

"We should be home before supper...bye Chichi." I say smiling to her as I walk out the door with Goten, flying in the way of the city for a moment, when I was sure that she wouldn't see where I was going I fly in the other direction toward Gohan's house. I smile at Goten, he had just learned how to fly not too long ago and it was taking him a while to get used to it. I smile at him and stop flying for a second. I pull him to me and smile. "Hey how about you sit on my back, that way we can get there faster?" I ask him, He smiles at me and nods happily. I wait for him to get settled and to cling to me for dear life before I fly off at supersonic speed. I soon see the house.

There was something different about it, I could feel a new energy in the house. I sensed Gohan's but there was someone or something else there. I had no idea what to think of that. I look at Goten and I knew that he could feel it too. I just shake my head and land in front of his house, knocking on the door.

He comes to the door looking pale as a ghost, he looks up at me with wide eyes before he smiles bright then looks down and sees Goten, his smile getting even bigger. "Well hey guys." He says softly. There was something wrong with him..How could I of not sensed this. I bite my lip and look down at Goten who was running up to him to hug him as tight as he could, telling him how much he missed him. Gohan smiles and looks down at him. "I miss you too Goten, come on lets go inside, it's cold out here." He says as he takes Goten inside. I look around the house and smile a little, this house felt exactly like Gohan's, it was warm and inviting just like he was.

I look at him and bite my lip. "you been feeling okay? You look kind of pale." I say to him softly as I put my hand on his forehead before I put it on my own as well, he felt normal...I just wondered what was wrong. He looks at me and smiles softly.

"I've just not been feeling too good the past few days...It would be here in the morning but it would leave by mid afternoon. I don't know maybe it's just a bug going around." He says to me. But he knew as well as I did that a Saiyan NEVER gets sick, especially from a little bug. What was wrong with Gohan? I try and rack my brain with the question as him and Goten play. I smile bright, missing seeing my two boys at the same time. I sigh and sit on the couch as I watch them wrestle on the ground. I smile and watch Goten, he looked like his old self again when his big brother was in the house.

I watch the two of them and lean back, trying to figure out where that energy came from. I look around the house, feeling the energy in front of me. I look around and see that it was just Gohan and Goten in front of me. But I swear that the energy is coming from in front of me. I shake my head, maybe I was losing my mind. It was highly possible.

After a few hours of Goten and Gohan playing, they were both exhausted, I smile and watch them before I stand "Goten it's time to go back home, mom's expecting us." I say..he looks at me with wide eyes and I could see the tears start to form. I go and sit on the floor by him and stroke his hair. "if we don't go back, then mom will never let us out of the house again." I say to him. He just nods and looks at Gohan, clinging to him for dear life.

"I...I miss you Gohan." He says as he sniffles. I watch the two of them and sigh, I couldn't tear them away from each other. There was no way...I haven't seen Goten this bappy in months. More importantly I couldn't make Goten go back to his mother. I sigh and look at him...I get up and leave the room, using my phone to call Bulma.

"Hey Goku! How's it going?" She asks me in a cheery voice. I smile and run a hand through my hair.

"I'm good..I have a favor to ask you...Do you think that Goten could stay with Trunks tonight? I know he misses him plus I don't really want him to go home tonight, because I'm not going to be either." I say to her. I could hear Trunks in the background screaming yes that he wanted Goten to come over. I chuckle softly and look at the two of them in the other room for a moment.

"I think that Trunks made my decision for me." She says chuckling over the phone. "come on over, when you get here I'll call Chichi and cover for you." She says smiling. My eyes widen as I smile bright. I couldn't believe what I was hearing. I smile with excitement and go to the room where my boys were.

"Alright thanks so much." I say smiling before I hang up looking at Goten. "Hey guess where you're going?" I ask him as he stands and comes to me. "I'm gonna take you to Bulma's and you're gonna stay with Trunks tonight." I say smiling as I see the bright look on his face before he starts to jump for joy. I feel the same way that he does, I didn't want to go home either, and this way I could come and see Gohan tonight and have a long talk with him. I smile at Gohan who smiles weakly as he stands up. I pick Gohan up "and you mister are going to rest...that way you can get to feeling better" i say smiling at me. He looks at me with wide eyes...I just keep the smile on my face. As soon as I lay him down "get some sleep" i say as i kiss him slowly.

He responds to the kiss immediately, gripping onto my hair. I gasp and look down at him as I pull away. He bites his lip and strokes my cheek "i miss you so much..." he says to me. I nod and lean down to kiss him again, harder and more passionate. He gasps and grips onto my hair, making me groan softly. I pull away panting, looking down at him...he looked like his heart was going to break if I left him. I couldn't do that to him.

"As soon as I drop off Goten...I'm coming back...and Ill stay as long as you need me to" I say, he smiles bright at me. The smile made my heart melt. I chuckle and kiss his nose before I hear Goten yell for me to hurry up. I kiss Gohan's nose before I smile at Goten going to him and picking him up. Taking him to Bulma's house.


Bulma POV

(Side note: Bulma does not know what is going on between Gohan and Goku, the only people that do are Goku, Gohan, and Vegeta..)

I smile down at Trunks, he was so happy that Goten was coming over. Those two were inseparable sometimes. I sigh and smile, thinking of all of the times that they've had together. They were about as adventurous as Goku and I when I first met him and we were seeking out the dragon balls. I sigh and smile, thinking back to the good old days, it seemed like that was all that I was doing lately. It wasn't that I didn't love how my life was right now, I just wished that there was more adventure. With it being peaceful on earth for the last two or so years, there hasn't really been anything for me to do. Not that that's stopped any of the guys from their training, especially Vegeta, but I can tell that they are getting restless, waiting for the next fight to come along.

I hear the door and I hurry to go get it, but Trunks beat me to it. I laugh as I see him run to Goten and hug him before he steals him away to his room. I look up at Goku and smile at him, he looks like he's been having a rough day, or a rough last couple of months since Gohan left. I look at him and sigh "How are you holding up?" I ask him. He looked so different, I had noticed the changes the second Gohan moved out, there wasn't a spring in his step and he just didn't have the light mood around him that he always had. I guess that's what happens when the person that you're closest to moves away. Not that I blame him...Chichi was horrible to that child.

Goku gives me a weak smile "I'm doing better, Goten and I went to his house for a while, he missed him a lot. I told Chichi we were coming here so I could train, but we just made a little pit stop first." He says with a small chuckle. I smile and shake my head, that man sometimes could be sneaky.

I nod and smile. "And I assume that you're going to be going back as soon as you leave here?" I ask him. He nods to me and gives me a small smile. I nod and pick up my phone, calling Chichi. She and I have gotten pretty close over the last couple of years. That's how I found out so many things about why she was making Gohan study so hard. She didn't want him to end up like his father. It shocked me how committed she was to her plan, well until it backfired in her face and he moved away. Now I think she's trying the same efforts on Goten, but there was no way that it was going to work. Goten was such a free spirit, just like his dad. But the only difference was that Goten actually loved to learn. I see him reading books all the time and I would catch him doing Gohan's work for him. There was no way that Chichi was going to rope this one down and force him to do what she wants.

I can remember back to the day that I gave Gohan the Capsule house...It felt like only yesterday...

**Flashback**

I was sitting in the living room watching television. Vegeta was training like normal, and Trunks was upstairs playing in his room. I hear the door and I get up, going to get it. When I realize that it was Gohan I sigh, this was the fifth time that he had come to ask me to give him a capsule house. I was never happy about the idea of him moving out. It would devastate his entire family. I sigh and look at him crossing my arms. "I know why you're here and the answer is no Gohan..I'm sorry." I say to him. I look down at him and i could see that he was shaking. My eyes widen as I look him over good for a moment, he looked absolutely livid.

"Actually...I was hoping that I could spar with Vegeta for a little bit..if that's okay?" He says looking at me. I smile and sigh, Vegeta hadn't left that chamber in what seemed like a week, maybe some competition will coax him out of it.

"Sure sweetie he's in there right now.." I say to him as I watch him go that direction. I look down and sigh, I felt awful for assuming that he was going to try and convince me that he needed a house. I just shrug it off and go back to the living room, and continue to watch television.

About fifteen minutes later, if that long, there was another knock on the door. I shake my head and stand up. This was a busy day.. I open the door and I was surprised to see Chichi there. I smile at her and invite her in. "Hey Chichi, what are you doing here? I haven't seen you in forever." I say smiling, she comes in and sits at the table. I follow her and wonder what was wrong...she was never this quiet...ever.

"I came to talk to you." She says looking at me with a completely serious look on her face. I was a little surprised at how serious she was about this. I look at her and nod before I sit down across from her.

"Alright I'm all ears...what's up." I say with a smile. Nothing could of prepared me for what I was about to hear.

"It's the boys...they're driving me insane!" she starts off with as she sighs. "Goku never stops that damned training of his, Gohan and Goten have both become defiant little brats...I don't know how to get control of my house anymore. I knew I shouldn't of ever left them alone with that damned monkey of a father for so long." She says glaring, as if she was reprimanding herself. My eyes widen..was she really saying this in front of me? I mean I knew she was my friend, but Goku was in my life way longer than she was and I will always be loyal to him first.

"Well why did you leave?" I say trying to understand where all of this was coming from.

"My father was getting sick for a while there, I wasn't sure if he was going to make it, so I would always take Goten with me, because he was closest to his grandfather, but while I was there...I met someone and we got to talking...it was refreshing to have someone that can actually hold an intelligent conversation instead of talking to me just when they want food." she says rolling her eyes as she looks out the window sighing.

I was sitting there in complete shock...she was cheating on him and she just admitted it to me...how stupid was this woman in the first place? I didn't know what to say to her...so I just didn't say anything. I just sat there awkwardly until she looked at me and sighed "Thank you for letting me vent about all of this, It's been on my mind for a long time...We'll need to do lunch sometime." She says smiling before she just gets up and leaves.

I watch her leave and I just shake my head, thinking of whether I should tell Goku or just go kick her ass by myself. An hour or so later I hear the chamber door open and Gohan comes out. I look at him "Don't leave just yet.." I say to him before I get up and grab a capsule house, it was big enough for the three of them when they decide to get the hell away from her. I toss it to him and he looks at me with a look of surprise.

"W..what made you change your mind Bulma?" He asks me and I just smile weakly.

"You'll find out later...right now just thank me and go home…" I say before I go to him and hug him softly. He was going to need as many of these as he could get.

"Uhm...okay...thanks a lot Bulma." He says smiling at me before he leaves the house and Vegeta comes out of the Chamber.

"Come here woman…" He says as he heads up to their bedroom. My eyes widen as I smirk and follow him, becoming excited for the first time in a long time.

**End**

"Hello? Trunks? Bulma?" I hear Chichi say on the other line….I must of been so lost in my thoughts I didn't hear her the first couple of times.

"Oh! Sorry Chichi, I wasn't paying attention...I was just calling to tell you that Goten and Goku will be staying here tonight. Trunks misses Goten, and I don't think that Vegeta and Goku are going to leave the Gravity Chamber anytime soon." I say with a chuckle. I look back at Goku who has the hugest grin on his face as he's staring off into space. It made me wonder what he was thinking about.

"Oh really...well I'd like to talk to my husband please..' She says, as if she was skeptical of if they were actually here. I look at Goku and smile a little, walking over to him.

"Okay...let me go get him." I say as I pretend to yell into the chamber before I hand Goku the phone. He smiles at me and takes the phone, walking around with it. He was getting restless as he talked to his wife, I knew that meant that he was nervous...I would be too when talking to her. She was one of the most intimidating women that I knew.

"Hey Chichi!...yes I'm training what else would I be doing?...Yes Goten is upstairs...Chichi...he can...yes I know he doesn't need to fall behind...He's only seven Chichi...come on let him have one night…" I see him running his hands through his hair, she must be ripping him a new one...That woman amazed me sometimes, she infuriated me but still amazed me. "Yes I'll make sure that he gets his work done when he gets home...okay…" He smiles a little before he hands the phone back to me.

"They can stay...but make sure they're home at a decent time tomorrow, I have some packets I want Goten to do." She says as she sighs. I could tell that she really didn't want to let him. It was insane..he was only seven years old! I just shake my head and roll my eyes before I smile, answering her.

"Okay I'll make sure of it Chichi...have a good night." I say to her before I hang up. I smile and look at Goku "Go to him...I bet he misses you." I say as I wave to him watching him sprint out the door before he took off.


Gohan POV

It had been so long since I had seen Goten, seeing the little guy and getting to play with him was the highlight of my month...maybe even my year...My stomach was still killing me though...It felt like a little KI ball was building up in my stomach and was going to attack me from the inside. I remember Vegeta and dad both saying how Saiyans are immune to almost every disease...well maybe this was one of them that they weren't and I just so happen to fucking catch the damned thing. I sigh and try to relax before dad comes back. I didn't want him to see me in pain. I hear the door open and I close my eyes...pretending to be asleep. I feel a large body crawl into bed with me and wrap his arms around me. I smile a little and turn, seeing those beautiful black eyes looking at me. "Don't ever leave me for that long again." I say to him as I stroke his cheek and kiss him.

I feel him smile into the kiss and I chuckle before we pull way. He nods to me and starts to run his nose along my neck, making me shiver. I look at him and bite my lip, waiting for him to say something. "I know sweetie...it killed me to be away from you this long..I'll never do it again..ever." He says before he leans down and kisses where my heart is, making my whole body warm up as I smile. I look up at him and run my hands through his hair, the big ball of energy in my stomach calming down immensely. I sigh and lean in to kiss him once more, my lips melting into his as he kissed back. There was nothing better than this, his flips and his body fit perfectly with mine, almost like we were made perfectly for each other. I smile up at him and stroke his cheek gently as he leans into my touch.

"I missed this the most...feeling you touch me and feeling your hands on me." I say to him as I see him smirking at me. I blush a little as he leans in and starts to kiss me, a newfound passion was in the kiss. I gasp softly and try not to give away how much that I actually needed him. I look up at him and he smiles at me, knowing exactly how I felt.

"I know Gohan, it's like I have to relearn how amazing your body feels." He says smirking at me. My eyes widen as I blush and smile at him.

"Well I think that I like this kind of learning...lets get started." I say with a laugh as I lean up and kiss him. He chuckles and kisses me back softly, our lips slid across each others, his were much softer than I remember, but it was still an amazing feeling. I wrap my arms around his neck as his go to my waist, pulling me closer to him. I feel the muscles of his chest on me and I shiver, he's gotten even bigger than the last time I saw him. This was one of the benefits to training all the time, his body kept getting hotter. I feel his tongue against my lips and I very eagerly open for him. I hear a small moan escape his mouth. I smile softly before I let his tongue slowly explore my mouth. My eyes roll back, feeling myself slip into a new state of pleasure that I"ve never felt before. I look up at him and his eyes were closed, he was thoroughly enjoying every second of this just like I was. I lean more into him as I feel his tongue start to massage mine, sliding farther into my mouth, making me groan into the sensation. I close my eyes and feel his hands run across my back, going down to rest on my ass, gripping it possessively. I gasp and lean into his touch, trying to get him to feel as much of me as he could. I pull away for a moment and look into his eyes, mine start to flutter closed as he massages my butt.

I chuckle and look at him as I start to stroke his hair gently. His eyes close as he leans in and starts to nuzzle my neck. I bite my lip and smile as he starts to kiss and nibble on my neck. I lean my head to the side to let him have more of me. I hear a small chuckle as his hands start to run over by body once again. I watch him carefully as his hands run over my body. When he touches my stomach there is a wierd sensation. Whatever was there moved to his touch. I knew that he could feel it as well because he stopped and looked down at me with wide eyes. As if he couldn't believe what he felt. I look at him and bite my lip as I run a hand through my hair. "It's been doing that for the last week...I don't know what's going on...but you're the only one who has been able to calm whatever the hell is going on in there down." I say as I look at him. He knew something that I didn't and I could tell… "Dad..what's going on?" I ask him as I look at him and stroke the worry lines that were on his face. He picks me up and takes me to the couch in the living room, laying me down with him as he pulled out his phone. "Dad...please say something!" I say to him as I shake his arm.

He leans down to kiss me and stroke my hair, but doesn't say a word. "Hey… I need your help...Please..yes I know I know...I'll owe you for a lifetime...thanks..Come to Gohan's house…" He says before he hangs up.

I look up at him with a confused as hell look on my face. "Who is coming over dad?" I ask him as I feel myself start to shake. This wasn't good if he was going to call someone to come and help. I snuggle to him and shake softly, feeling my head start to pound. This was driving me insane that he wasn't telling me what was going on. Or at least what he thought was going on. He looks down at me and smiles a little.

"Someone that know's what the hell is going on...trust me Gohan." He says as he looks down at me and smiles a little, stroking my jaw to try and calm me down. It almost worked, until I remembered the only other person that knew about was the one that I DEFINITELY didn't want near me and whatever was going on with me.

"No...no no dad...Vegeta? Really?" I say as I sit up and run my hands through my hair as I sigh. He rubs my back and sighs, looking at me. Knowing that I wasn't very fond of Vegeta, sure he was a great sparring partner..but that was about as far as his usefulness went for me. I sigh and get up, going to the kitchen, hoping to find something good to eat. Lately I've been eating twice as much as normal, which was more than my dad would eat. I never thought I'd see a day when someone ate more than dad and never in my wildest dreams did I think it would be me. I grab a snack and feel him wrap his arms around me.

"He's the only one that can help Gohan...I'm sorry it has to he him...but we don't have another choice" he says into my ear as I sigh and nod...knowing that he was right, no matter how much I didn't want to admit it. I lean back on him and nod as I look up, seeing him smile down at me. I blush and look away for a moment...he knew something that I didn't and I could tell. I hear a knock at the door and I jump. I look back and see dad going to get it. I sit on the couch and try not to look nervous as hell. Vegeta looks over at me with his arms crossed. I see him tense as his eyes widen...the same thing my dad did when he first walked in. They both come over to me, dad sitting my me and holding onto me, Vegeta in front of me, placing his hands on my stomach,pressing in places. I wince and close my eyes hoping that it wasn't going to hurt for much longer.

I see him back up and sigh "good news or bad news?" He asks us as he sits there. When neither of us answer he sighs "the good news is it's nothing that you need to worry about...you're going to be just fine...the bad news is... I'm not sure what to do. I didn't think that this was possible. Its urban legend back on my planet..." he says looking at us. I could tell that was the answer that dad wasn't looking for. Hell it wasn't the one i wanted either.

"What do you mean you don't know what to do?" I ask as I lean forward. I look at him praying that he had some kind of answer. He stands and sighs crossing his arms.

"I mean exactly what I said. What has happened is almost as unheard of here as it is on our planet." He says to me...he sighs "there is an urban legend of two males mating. Its never heard of...sure men will have sex for the hell of it with other men but it never means anything...the two that mated together became the strongest power in the universe...but when the one is impregnated the story takes on many different forms of what actually happened" he says shrugging as he sighs.

As I was listening to what he said when I felt my heart stop. He was looking at me waiting for me to realize what he had said. I couldn't believe it.

"y...you mean..." Vegeta cuts me off

"Yes Gohan...you're pregnant with Kakarots child..."

Dun dun dunnnnnnnn! Haha(: this chapter was fun to write. But now my lovely fans...I would like your help. I want you to help me pick out the name of the baby! In a review or personal message give me a boy or girl name...or both...the only thing that i ask is that it has the first letters of their name like Go_...

I can't wait to hear from you!

Happy reading!
