Ch 55
Trunks turned over in bed, his arms reaching out to hold his mate. When he felt nothing beside him, he opened his eyes to realize his mate wasn't in bed. Sitting up in bed, he got up, letting the covers fall away from his body.
Hearing the sound of the water run in the bathroom, he walked in to see the naked outline of his mate through the glass of the shower. "I wondered where you were. Why did you leave the bed? You don't usually wake up at this time, especially when you don't have classes."
Goten felt nervous and knew he had to tell Trunks about his project with Julian. "I—I have a project for school I have to work on with my partner today, and I have to meet them at their house at 7pm."
"Ok, but that doesn't explain why I can feel your worry," said Trunks as he heard the shower water shut off and watched as his mate emerged from the shower.
Wrapping a towel around his waist, he looked his mate in the eyes. "That's because the person I'm working with is Julian, and I didn't want you to freak out."
"I'm not happy about it Goten, but I know how important your education is to you. I don't want to be the one to stand in your way. Just be careful around him chibi. Don't take anything from him. If you need me—
"Yeah yeah I know Trunks. You'll be there," he smiled as his arms went around Trunks' neck. "I know you're really trying Trunks. You proved that by not overreacting."
"I really am growing up, aren't I?" he said as Goten laughed.
"Well I should get dressed," said Goten as he pulled away from Trunks, walking back into the bedroom.
"Do you really need to get dressed right now chibi?" Trunks asked as he followed him into the bedroom. "It's my day off, and we have a lot of time before you go."
Goten turned to face his mate. He smiled. "What did you have in mind?"
"Now this is what I'm talking about," said Trunks, "breakfast in bed."
Goten laughed. "Honestly, I thought you would want to have sex."
"Oh," Trunks smirked, "I do. I just wanted to eat first."
Breakfast was done, and they cleaned up before they returned to their bedroom. Trunks wasted no time as he pushed Goten onto the bed and attacked his lips with his mouth. Their limbs moved in sync with each other as they made out heavily on the bed.
"Tru—Trunks," breathed Goten. "I—I want you inside of me so bad."
"I know you usually like it slow, but I don't mind speeding it up for you," he smiled as he entered his fiancé roughly, causing him to cry out before feeling the pleasure of Trunks' movements inside him. Every sound from Goten's mouth spurred Trunks to drive into him harder, bringing his mate to orgasm. Pulling out of his lover, he lied beside him, bringing his body to his in a strong hold that could break a normal human being.
Goten had found it hard to leave his mate to go work on his project, but it had to be done. After their first round of sex, he remembered how much Trunks wanted him again. The second time had been slow and tender. He felt amazing afterwards, loved. It had been so overwhelming, feeling Trunks' love flow through his body but powerful at the same time.
Julian's house came into his site, so he landed at the front gate, walking the path to the door. Ringing the doorbell, he stood back as Mrs. Terix answered the door. She smiled. "Why hello Goten, it's good to see you."
"Is Julian around? We have a project to work on for school."
"Oh yes he told me all about it. He's in his room. It's upstairs, down the hall, and it's the first door on your left."
"Um thanks Mrs. Terix."
"Call me Vivian."
Goten made his way upstairs and to Julian's room. He knocked once and waited. When he knocked again, Julian didn't answer. "Come on Julian. We have a project to work on and if you're not coming out, then I'm coming in." Opening the door, he was shocked to see Julian having sex with a guy on his bed.
"Oh sorry Goten," said Julian as Goten turned away from the scene.
"I'll be outside and wait until you're finished," he blushed.
"Or you could stay and join us?" said the guy beneath Julian on the bed.
"N—no thanks I'm not interested and I'm engaged," he said before closing the door and making his way downstairs to find the kitchen.
"I guess I lost track of time," said Julian as he came into the kitchen fully dressed and clean. "He's a one night stand, nothing special. I just need to be satisfied every once in a a while."
"I'll never understand how people can be so casual with the person they sleep with, especially with something so intimate."
"You know I'm not the only one guilty of it. Your fiancé has done the same thing in the past. It's a very common thing, but you know I could change my ways if you decide to be mine."
"I'm tired of talking about this. Let's just start the project."
"Fine have it your way for now," smirked Julian. "You want anything to eat or drink before we start?"
"No, I'm fine," said Goten as he took out the directions for the dish they were about to make together.
"We have to make a dessert platter with desserts that compliment each other," said Julian.
"Let's make a list of ideas and then we can go to the store and gather ingredients," said Goten.
"Good idea."
Wandering the baking aisle of the store, the culinary partners picked out their ingredients, depositing them in their cart.
"This is nice, isn't it?" asked Julian.
"I would enjoy this more if I wasn't here with you," said Goten as he looked down at the ingredients list.
"Why can't this be fun Goten? You seem wound up so tight. You really need to relax."
"Let's just get this over with and get back to your house."
Getting back to the kitchen, Goten wasted no time in asking Julian to take out all the supplies they would need to make their platter. Once everything was in the oven, they had time to wait for the desserts to cook.
"We make a good team," Julian smiled.
"Do you ever give up? I mean what do you think is going to happen here? I'm not going to just magically fall in love with you the more time we spend together. You need to move on and find someone who will really love you for who you are. That person will never ever be me."
"I don't give up Goten. I know there's something between us."
"I thought you were Trunks. I would have never done what I did if I was in my right mind."
"I don't care. I love you Goten," he said as the timer went off.
"The desserts are ready," said Goten as Julian helped him take them out to cool before they decorated them.
"You can't just ignore me Goten. I'm not going away," said Julian as he closed the oven and turned it off.
"Do you hear yourself?" Goten yelled. "You sound crazy. You don't love me. You would have never taken advantage of me if you did. If you were genuine in your heart, you would have slept off your own drunken state on the couch and left me alone. You would have wished Trunks and I happiness in our decision to be together but no it's all about getting what you want no matter the cost."
They remained in silence as they decorated their desserts, put them on the platter tray, and into Julian's fridge to remain until their project was due.
"Well it looks like we're done. I'm going home," said Goten as he headed for the exit.
"Wait! You don't have to go. It's late, why don't you—?"
"Are you out of your mind?" he asked as he turned to him. "I wouldn't stay here if this was the safest place on earth. I love my fiancé, I'm going to marry him, and I'm going to be happy. There's nothing you can say or do to convince me otherwise. Goodbye," he said as he turned away and rushed out the door.
When he took off in the air, he flew so fast that he almost passed his home. He was exhausted and just want to sleep, forgetting this day ever happened.
