Sweat dripped from Vegeta's nose. He had to wipe his eyes as sweat got into them and they stung. As he got the sweat out of his eye's he glanced at the clock. 11:45. Way past Trunks Bedtime. As he thought that he heard a thump as his son fell on his back. He sighed. ''Gravity disengage.'' he ordered. As the gravity cleared he fell to a knee.

''I-I can keep going dad...'' Trunks coughed, his throat and mouth was so dry. ''Im..not done.'' Trunks said as he tried to convince his father, but it was obvious he couldn't.

''No.'' Vegeta said sharply. ''Were done here.'' Vegeta said as he opened the panel and grabbed two gallons of cold water. He limped over to his son. His Gi was soaked through with sweat. He was obviously dehydrated. Vegeta used his teeth to rip off the caps. With one hand he poured half a gallon over himself and with the other hand poured the cold water over his son. He chuckled as he sputtered. He sat the half empty jug next to his prone son. ''Drink.'' He ordered.

After sputtering from having cold water dumped on him, which he had to admit he was glad for. He accepted his father's order and began to weakly drink. He gained strength as he drank until it was empty.

Meanwhile Vegeta had turned on the air conditioning.

Trunks and Vegeta both had goose bumps raise on their arms. Trunks tried to get himself up but stopped when his father signaled him to.

Vegeta kneeled down and picked up his son.

Trunks blushed faintly but wrapped his arms around his father's neck and legs around his waist. His father supported him by his backside.. He leaned his head forward. Resting it on his dad's sweaty chest. He took deep breaths to get more air in his lungs. ''Where we going?'' Trunks asked tiredly, his voice muffled because his face was in his father's chest.

''Bath, you stink.'' Vegeta said plainly as he carried Trunks into the house.

Trunks blushed. ''You stink to.'' Trunks shot back childishly but he didn't really mean it.

''Heh.'' Vegeta let a lazy smirk appear. ''I may be tired but I still have enough in me to spank you.'' Vegeta said offhandedly.

Trunks eeped as his blush spread further. ''Nooo dont. Im sorry.'' Trunks whined but he was so tired it just made him look really cute.

''I wont.'' Vegeta assured as they got to the bathroom. He sat Trunks down on the edge of the tub and helped the sleepy boy out of his boots and socks then his Gi and pants. He tugged down his son's underwear baring him completely naked. He through the clothes in the hamper before he peeled off his blue spandex, gloves and boots. He put that to in the hamper.

Trunks yawned and began to sway only for him to be woken up by a small spray of cold water in his face.

When Vegeta saw his son sway he gave Trunks a spray of cold water to his face. As his son sputtered he began to feel the bath tub. It was filled with in seconds. He stepped into the bathtube before he picked Trunks up and sat the boy on his lap, the water coming up to their pecs. ''Hold your breath.'' vegeta warned.

Trunks quickly held his breath and closed his eyes as he was leaned back and was submerged in the water. As he was brought up he kept his eyes closed as shampoo was squirted on his head and his father's calloused fingers began to massage his scalp. ''Hmm..'' Trunks hummed in satisfaction as he was treated like...well a prince. ''Im sorry for not lasting long enough dad...'' he said sadly.

Vegeta huffed. ''No need to be. I pushed you to far. Its past your bedtime. Your mother will kill me.'' Vegeta said with a smirk as he suds up'ed his son's lavender hair. ''Hold your breath...'' Vegeta warned again as he dipped his son underwater and scrubbed his head to get rid of all the shampoo.

Trunks giggled softly as he kept his eyes closed. ''Dont worry daddy I will protect you...'' Trunks assured not even realizing he said 'daddy'. He held his breath as he was put under. When he came back up he shook his head to get rid of all the extra water. He opened his eyes to see his father's gentle smile.\

Vegeta's heart warmed at being called 'Daddy'. Ever since Majin Buu, he held his family closer, cared for them more. And accepted their love for each other. He had a small smile on his face as his son opened his eyes. ''Thanks, I could use it.'' Vegeta said as he soaped up his hands with body wash before scrubbing Trunks upper body. He started with his neck which got Trunks giggling and trying to escape from his hands. He moved down to his chest, lathering up his son's body. ''Put your hands up.'' Vegeta said.

Trunks bit his lip as he did. His underarms were always very ticklish especially to his father's talented callused fingers. As his sides and underarms were soaped up he giggled and laughed as he squirmed at the ticklish feeling of his dads fingers dancing over his skin. ''Noo dad stop that your doing that on, hehe, on purpose!'' Trunks laughed again.

Vegeta smirked. ''Maybe I am. You cant stop me anyway's.'' Vegeta said before he finished his ticklish torture. He rinsed his son's body of the soap. With a tap of his son's butt he said. ''Kneel up.''

Trunks blushed as he knew what was coming up but shifted so he was kneeling so his little penis and scotum was exposed.

Vegeta soaped up his hands again and them began to wash his son's privates. He rolled his son's balls with his fingers while he stroked his shaft to soap it up.

Trunks bit his lip as his privates were touched. ''Hmm daad this is embarrassing. It feels a little weird to...'' Trunks said as his penis rose up, his cute little pink head poked out from his forskin.

Vegeta stroked his son one last time before he stopped. He had his son sit back down on his lap so the water washed off the soap. ''Im going to have to explain that to you sometime.'' Vegeta said quietly.

Trunks cocked his eyebrow. ''What do yay mean?'' He asked.

Vegeta shook his head. ''Not now son.'' Vegeta said before he began to wash himself. In a few minutes he was clean and was standing them both up and out of the tub. He wrapped his son in a soft fluffy towel and dried him off.

Trunks giggled as the fluffy towel tickled him. He loved this side of his dad. Where they were alone and it was night and things were unwinding.

Vegeta finished with his son and then Ki dried himself with one show off with his power. The two naked males walked to the youngest bedroom. Vegeta holding his son's hand on the trip. Once at the bed Vegeta pulled back the covers and laid his son down in it. He then walked to the other side and slipped in himself. He turned to his side as Trunks scooted over to him and curled up his smaller body so he could be held by his father's large and strong arms.

Trunks snuggled up to his warm dad. He could hear his strong heart beat and that soothed him. ''Good night dad. I love you...'' Trunks said sleepily.

Vegeta held him tighter. ''Good night son, I love you to.'' He kissed the top of his sons forehead. He and his son both relaxed before they fell asleep together. Both having sweet dreams that night.
