(29) Trunks and Goten's home…

Trunks was laying in bed thinking about all the events that happened today. He couldn't believe it. He would be an uncle. Goten seemed pretty excited when he found out he was becoming an uncle. Pan and Goten were close, and he knew how he much he cared for her. He just didn't know how good he would be. He was never really that good with kids. He learned that one time when he was a teenager and got the job as Santa at the mall, what a nightmare that had been.

"What are you thinking about it, Trunks?" He came out wearing plaid pants and a wife beater.

"You remember that time I was Santa."

"Yes, I sat on your lap and got my picture taken. I think I asked for a date for the prom."

"How unrealistic of a gift was that?"

"Well I was desperate, no one wanted to go with me." He sat on the bed beside Trunks.

"That's just sad. Whatever happened when prom came around?"

"I didn't go. I went to the beach and swam."

"Naked?"

Goten sighed, lied down, and rolled over on his side, his back facing his perverted boyfriend. He smiled and rolled back to face Trunks who smiled as well. "Do you think about sex all the time?"

"No of course not. I'm not that obsessed."

"Ok, I believe you."

"Then how come you don't sound convincing?"

"Maybe because I'm not convinced."

"Goten, if I was in this relationship for sex, then I would have left by now."

"Good point." Goten lied his head in Trunks's lap, and Trunks made sure he was comfortable. Goten decided to bring up the conversation he had with Videl on the phone. "Hey Trunks."

"Yes Goten."

"Videl called me on Sunday. Hercule told her what you did and what he planned to do about you. She's on your side Trunks, and I'm sure she's told my family by now. We want you to have as much support as you can get."

Trunks fingers were playing with Goten's hair. He smiled. "It's good to know I'm not alone in the world."

"Hey I was wondering if you wanted to go Christmas shopping tomorrow. You could pick me up from school after work."

"I got all my shopping done, but I'd be delighted to help you out with any ideas."

"Always the early shopper, huh?"

"Yes and proud of it." Trunks leaned his face into Goten's and kissed his lips softly. Goten responded by deepening the kiss.

They separated, so they could get comfortable lying down in bed. They held each other through the night. During the night, Trunks's hands wandered to different parts of his boyfriend and since Goten was a deep sleeper, he didn't wake up.
