What does one wear when traveling to another universe? I was trying desperately not to let the anxiety settle. I could hear Goku whistling loudly to himself in the shower. This all felt like a dream…I couldn't believe he was taking me to meet his family and friends. Did that include Chichi though? Would it be appropriate to ask him how things were going with her? I didn't want it to come across as if I liked him…But god I did so much. I threw my face into my hands and let out a groan. I could feel the tears starting to well up, this was so frustrating. The more time I spent with Goku the stronger my attraction for him grew. Was this a good idea? I looked up at my mirror that stood across from me within my closet. I had finally settled for a fitted black top and some skinny jeans, it was so unlike me to not chose one of my regular t-shirts. I always hid within my clothes because I hated extra attention, I had even decided to wear eyeshadow today instead of just mascara and foundation. However, even though it was hopeless, I actually wanted to catch Goku's eye. Ugh it felt embarrassing even admitting it to myself. There was no denying it at this point…

"Hey Luna are you almost ready?" I hadn't even heard Goku leave the bathroom. I turned my attention away from my reflection in the mirror to face him. He only wore a towel, lazily wrapped around his waist, while he dried his hair with another. I felt my thigh muscles beginning to clench as my eyes wandered hungrily across his body. My breathing was picking up so I forced my head to turn away, my hands were cliched tightly into fists now.

"Yeah I'm ready whenever you are. Remember we have to get back before 6 ok?" I said to him still not making eye contact. I suddenly had a thought…

"You're very comfortable with yourself aren't you? You know you really shouldn't parade yourself around like that in front of another girl, I know if I was your wife I'd be pretty jealous."

"I wouldn't do something like that to you." The intensity of his words had taken me by surprise. I didn't need to turn around to know that he was standing right behind me. I had become too painfully aware of his body heat. My body was suddenly aching for him again…incredible timing. I couldn't work up the nerve to face him, I was stunned. Why did he say that…?

His hand was on my shoulder as he towered behind me. I couldn't help myself, so I looked up at our reflection in the mirror. His image was perfection compared to mine, I couldn't bear to look away. Our eyes finally met.

"Luna…please describe to me what you're feeling." My heart rate was increasing by the second. Are you fucking kidding me? There was no way I could ever reveal that to him. The thought of him ever realizing my feelings for him terrified me. It was just a dumb crush…I'd get over eventually…right?

"You don't have to hide anything from me—"

"And why the hell not Goku?" My frustration had me boiling, it was a hard feeling to describe.

"You talk and act like you've known me for years but we've only had one meaningful conversation. Then you disappear for more than a week and appear only when my life is at risk. Now here you come half-naked into my closet and ask me to describe to you what I'm feeling!" Somehow I had managed to keep eye contact with him. His expression hadn't changed however, and he merely tightened his grip on my shoulder.

"I know something is bothering you. I can't explain why but I can feel it somehow, as if you're transferring your feelings to me. I'm just trying to understand you better. And I'm sorry I didn't come see you earlier. Trust me though I wanted to! Things have become a little complicated on my side ever since I came here. I really cant explain that to you now either…but I promise if you come with me you can get some answers." His expression had looked almost desperate, he was eager to hear my response. Trust me though I wanted to! He had wanted to come see me? But couldn't for some reason? And he could feel that I was struggling around him. Thank god he couldn't tell what I was struggling with exactly…I reached for the dragon ball in my pocket and held it to the mirror.

"Is this what made things complicated on your side? You left if behind during your last visit…"

"What? I hadn't even realized it was gone! Thanks for holding on to it though."

"What's been giving you such a hard time then?" I was turned around at this point, trying hard not to notice his rippling muscles that were mere inches away from my face. He smiled down at me.

"You."

"Me?"

His hand slid down my arm and grasp my free hand. I was frozen.

"Things have changed ever since I returned home from when I first met you." His eyes were on our hands.

"How?"

"Tell me what you've been struggling with."

"No!"

"Then I guess you'll just have to wait to find out my answer too!" He gave me a wide grin and squeezed my hand. I gulped. This was too much…I was so confused. I had no idea what to think. Goku couldn't possibly…no. He was just overly friendly, confident…there was just no way.

Then without warning he took me into his arms, my cheek was pressed against his still moist chest.

"Just trust me Luna. I know I'm not making a ton of sense, but if you come with me I can explain everything." He whispered into my hair, his husky voice sent chills down my spine. Oh god he smelled amazing. I just wanted to hear him talk more. Without thinking I wrapped my arms around his waist.

"I'll go with you Goku. I'm sorry for being such a bitch. You're right I am struggling in a way…but I'm not comfortable talking about it just yet…" I couldn't believe I was even revealing that much to him…it's not like I had any intentions of actually explaining my uncontrollable desires for him. I was dying to find out how things had changed for Goku ever since we first met…it seemed important. I just wanted to know the truth before I made any assumptions that would get my hopes up.

"Let's get closer then ok?"

"I'm not really sure that's possible right now.." I mumbled with a blush. He started to laugh, I gazed up at him. This man was an angel. How did he make me feel this way? How could he care this much? I didn't deserve it…

"I'm looking forward to spending more time with you Luna." He had stopped laughing and was looking down at me with a soft smile. Oh Goku…I like you much. Please don't hurt me…
