(40) The Jail (the next day)…
Goten had never heard that many whistles before as he walked down the hall to Trunks's cell. The guard accompanying him did nothing about the riled up prisoners. He began to wonder what they all ended up here and decided he didn't want to know. He was so into his thoughts until the guard got his attention. "Mr. Son, we're here and no touching the prisoner." Goten smiled. He knew how hard it would be for Trunks. The guard leaned against the wall as Goten came up to the bars of the cell to see Trunks with a smile on his face.
"Hey chibi, you look good."
"So do you."
Trunks laughed. "Yeah right, I hardly get to shower in this place."
"That sucks, but your smell couldn't keep me away."
"Aren't you the sweet one?" Goten noticed Trunks's eyes turning to the old man in his cell and smiled. "You know that surprise I was telling you about?"
"Yeah."
The old man came over to Trunks and smiled at Goten. His face was kind and held a light them he had only seen in his father. "This is the man who took care of Goku when he was a baby and raised him."
"Grandpa Gohan, I don't believe this. My father said he was dead." Goten listened as Gohan explained what happened.
"It's a pleasure to meet you Goten. Your boyfriend's told me so much about you. It seems you've made a dramatic impact on this young man's life."
Goten looked at Trunks whose face was not ashamed of what Gohan had revealed. He looked proud to be his lover, which made Goten feel good. He pushed his overwhelming feeling down and turned to his grandpa. "I can't believe I'm meeting you. I'm going to have to bring down my dad to see you. He would be so happy."
"I would like that very much."
"You're a great grandpa too. Her name's Pan, and she's as carefree as my dad."
Gohan laughed. "Your father was a handful."
Trunks listened as the two exchanged stories about Goku. He was glad Goten got to meet his grandpa considering how long he was staying here. Gohan decided to get some rest and left Goten and Trunks to talk.
"You know how much it kills me that I can't touch you."
"I know Trunks." Goten laughed.
"Sure make fun of me, you know at some point you're going to want it."
"Your ego sure is big Trunks."
"I know this for sure Goten. Something in your saiyan blood is going to want me as much as I want you. What are you going to do then?"
"Take a lot of cold showers." They both laughed.
Trunks turned serious. "Are you sure you want to live alone? You know I worry about you."
"Yeah Trunks I'm sure. It's nothing against your family or anything."
"I know Goten, you just want to be where we live. You want to remember all the good times we had together." He knew what Goten said next wouldn't be so serious.
"You know when you make it all dirty like that you cheapen the moments."
