She had met them...originally it was fine as just them...but soon he wanted to be more than just them.
(Present)
Kagome stared out the window as Earth came into view. Her heart rate sped up and she smiled in excitement. "Bulma...I can't wait to see her again." She looked to a smirking Raditz and laughed at the rapidly thumping foot that showed just how impatient he was to land the ship. It was dark out, and most likely, Bulma was asleep or just now going to sleep. "We should sleep in the ship tonight, so not to wake anyone up."
Raditz frowned but nodded his head all the same.
Vegeta was sleeping already, having stayed awake playing with Chaya who was turning out to be quite the active little social butterfly. On top of that, both Raditz and Vegeta were completely wrapped around her finger already. She laughed lightly to herself at the last few weeks, watching them pass the little girl around. Even still, she saw the way Vegeta looked at their son, and she knew...he was proud of his healthy first born.

(On Earth)
Bulma rolled over restlessly in bed, her eyes tightly clenched shut as nightmares began to plague her. "Nng..."
Her eyes snapped open and she shot forward with a sheen of sweat thinly layered over her brow. Her breathing ragged and her heart wildly beating against her chest. "...what was that?" Tears burned in her eyes...her heart thrashing painfully inside her as she fought back the tears that threatened to fall.
"Bulma-"
"Don't say my name, you fucking bitch!"
She shook her head, "that can't be real...just...a horrible nightmare."
"SHENRON! I CALL ON YOU! COME FORTH AND GRANT ME MY WISHES! SHENRON~!"
"There is no way...that I would do that." The tears finally started falling, trickling down her cheeks as they dropped brokenly to her blanket and hands.
"...Shenron!" Bulma yelled out, "GRANT ME MY WISH!" She turned her eyes to Vegeta, and for the first time since Kagome had et the blue haired woman, she watched as tears fell brokenheartedly from her eyes. "Vegeta..." she made sure to say his name without letting her voice break in her sorrow, "I wish you'd never come to Earth..."
"Vegeta..."
"Trunks!"
Kagome's voice beckoned her eyes away from Vegeta's stunned eyes. Her ocean blue orbs took in the sight of a little boy with lavender hair fading from Kagome's desperate arms.
"WHAT DID YOU DO!?" She turned her eyes onto Bulma, a heavy wind began to pick up and another cry filled her ears.
"Kagome..."
"GOHAN!"
A woman Bulma didn't recognize cried out for Goku's son, but the person to run over to her was an adult. They both were staring down at the infant in the ravenettes arms as both she and the baby started to fade from existence.
"OH KAMI! GOKU! MY BABY!" Chichi cried out, throwing her arms tightly around a miniature Goku's shoulders as he clung tightly to her clothes, scared to let her go.
The boy cried out Chichi as she held him tightly, "Mama!"
"Oh Kami! Chichi, Goku...I'm so sorry...!"
"Dad~!"
Bulma looked around at the chaos she'd caused, and her eyes turned to see Kagome looking up at Vegeta who was also starting to fade. Both Kagome and Trunks were crying at the sight of him fading from their sights.
"Trunks...what did I do!?"
"I have two wishes...Shenron..."
"WHAT ARE YOUR WISHES?"
"Take me back a year before Vegeta was supposed to come to Earth, with the means, and knowledge required to find him again! My second wish, I want...for the first child I have...to be the very same, soul and body, of Trunks, the little boy you are erasing from history!"
Bulma's eyes widened at the stark realization. The painful...realization... "...I did this..."
"YOUR WISHES WILL BOTH BE GRANTED! THE CHILD YOU CARRY WILL BE BORN WITH THE SOUL OF YOUNG TRUNKS! HE WILL NOT BE OF THE SAME GENES, BUT THE SAME SOUL! FOR YOUR OTHER WISH, YOU WILL KNOW WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW!"
Closing her eyes, she inhaled and tried to calm her heart. "Nothing to be said now...this was the choice I made...and the baby that Kagome carries...or carried. He is...no longer mine."

(Back on the Ship)
Kagome heard the troubled groans of her mate and walked inside the room they shared, the Ship having just landed about an hour ago. They landed a bit a ways from Capsule Corp so not to wake anyone, and were shutting the ship down until the morning. She walked over to Vegeta and frowned at the contorted look of confusion and fear on his face. She gave him a slight nudge and jumped when he shot forward and grabbed her hand. Careful of Trunks, she watched as his eyes came to register who was in his room before he loosened his grip on her wrist and pulled her into his arms. Burying his face in the crook of her neck, she asked what was wrong, but received no answer. He was hurting, that much she was certain of, and as his eyes found Trunks...the fearful look in his eyes became more noticeable. "Vegeta..." she let him hold Trunks and curled up in his side. Chaya was sleeping soundly in the bed across the way from their bed, and as sound a sleeper as the baby girl was, she wouldn't wake to be sure.
"...I saw it..."
"Saw what?"
"...the blue haired woman, she was my wife?" He shook his head, but his eyes didn't leave the baby in his arms, looking into the baby's bright blue eyes as he stared right back at his father. "I saw the wish she made...Kakarot's son, my son, Gohan, his wife and daughter...I don't know their names…but I know the feelings of despair, and fear...that they must have felt. Then there was you..." his eyes turned lovingly to hers, and he took in the tears in her eyes as she too recalled the events that happened on that horrible night. "...you turned back time...to bring me back, and to save my son."
She smiled, "of course I did, and I'd do it again if it meant being with you. Vegeta...you and Trunks...meant so much to me, and now even...my feelings haven't changed any, they've only grown stronger."
He leaned forward and kissed her, this kiss, unlike the soft one he'd given her so many months ago...this one told her...she was his, and always would be.
However, something rattled Kagome's brain, 'if Vegeta remembered...does that mean...'
