Day Prompt 21: Soup
The odd couple made it back to the warm home in the countryside finally after flying through the crisp air. They were greeted with smiles and ushered into the house before the cold air got in. Goku began asking all kinds of questions about what it was like to be in Capsule Corp during the blizzard and how Vegeta was.
"You know, brother, if I didn't know any better I'd say you were a little smitten with our Prince." Raditz teased Goku, enjoying the younger Saiyan's blushing and surprised face.
Goku insisted in a flustered manner that he just hadn't seen the Prince in over a week and he was wondering about him. With that, the Saiyan changed the subject and led them into the kitchen where a big pot of delicious smelling food was on the stove. With Chichi gone to visit her father for a few days, Goku was left to cook the only thing he knew how to do: soup.
Zarbon sat at the table with his lover and watched Goku work in a nervous manner to get out some bowls and start pouring the meal into them. He then looked to Raditz and saw the Saiyan grinning in a cocky manner as he watched his brother. "Would you stop teasing your brother? We just got here. The least you could do is get settled in before you pick on him." Zarbon rolled his eyes.
"Thank you, Zarbon." Goku pouted as he put a bowl in front of the alien Prince.
The cyan-skinned man looked down to see chunks of potatoes, bacon, cheese and a thick creamy broth in the bowl. It smelled delicious and he hoped that it tasted just as good. He knew this was going to hit the spot to get the remaining cold out of his bones and he began to eat it immediately without waiting.
"It's nothing to be ashamed of, brother. Prince Vegeta is a fine choice than any Saiyan would kill to have as their own." Raditz grinned, looking at Goku as the man sat his bowl down.
"W-We're just friends, Raditz!" Goku laughed and rubbed the back of his head, a blush staining his face.
The odd couple could see that there was something more behind Goku's excuses. Raditz looked at Zarbon and chuckled while Zarbon smiled, both of them knowing that Goku was a terrible liar. Instead of pestering the man more about his "friendship" with Vegeta, they opted for eating the delicious potato soup instead. After all, they were going to need plenty of energy to pick on the young Saiyan for the rest of the evening.
TBC.
