Gohan stood outside, he knew it would only be a matter of time before his mother got angry and decided to leave.
He'd overheard to his mother talking on the phone, someone claiming that they saw his father hugged up with some woman.
It could be true, but as his mother often made painfully obvious to his father, they were divorced.
A part of him hoped he was with another, so that his mother could truly understand what this would mean.
Him not being there anymore...
His father wasn't perfect either, but there wasn't a doubt in his mind that his father loved them.
He stood outside, texting his girlfriend when he heard a woman's voice say, 'Awww shit.'
He turned to find the sayain princess Vegan hunched over and hugging a tree.
She reeked of booze, and vomit.
'Vegan?'
She stood up straight and turned to face him. 'You.'
'What are you going here?'
'Whatever I want!'
He could see her areola peeking out of the top her dress...
'Your dress is slipping.'
'Shouldn't you be refereeing your parents?' She scoffed as she pulled up her dress.
'Did you spend the night here?'
'What are you implying?!'
'Nothing!' He said quickly. 'I just... wait... did you and my dad...?'
'If you tell anyone, I will sear your mother's flesh from her bones.'
'Don't threaten my mom because you decided to sleep around!' He barked.
Before he knew it, her knee slammed into his groin, despite being hungover, her reflexes were incredible.
The pain was unbearable, he could hardly breathe.
'Don't EVER talk to me like that again.' She said as stood over the boy.
When he was able to stand again, he saw that Vegan was gone.
'Gohan!' Called his mother as he limped back towards the house. 'Time for breakfast.' He limped inside. 'What happened to you?'
'I was exercising, and pulled a muscle.' He said quietly as he limped the table.
'Are you alright?' Asked Goten as their mother placed a stack of pancakes in front of him.
'I will be.' He breathed.
Goku came out of the bedroom fully clothed, he had a bag of senzus tied around his waist.
'Can I have one?' He pleaded.
'Uh, sure.' He hands him a bean. 'What's wrong son?'
'I pulled a groin muscle.'
'I know how that goes...'
Gohan wondered if he pulled any muscles last night.
'Where are you off to?!' Asked Chi Chi.
Goku paused for a second, then he looked away. 'I thought I might get in some training-'
'You're still training?!'
'Why would I not train?'
'You're family's gone!'
'But you said that we'd still be a family even though you're not married anymore!' Goten protested.
Chi Chi snorted and shook her head. 'Yeah, I did.'
'Well, I'm-'
'The boys would like to have breakfast with their father before they head off to school!'
Goku scatched his head and sat at his usual place. 'It would be nice having someone to talk to, but I'm not hungry.'
'Food will help with the hangover.' She said stiffly.
'I bet Bloomer will have something.' He said quietly as he rubbed his temples.
'What did you do last night?!' Chi Chi demanded.
'I don't really remember...' he said quietly. 'I remember something called Absinthe, and... hey, you were there.'
'What?'
'You were having dinner with someone.'
'Mom had a date.' Goten said as he grabbed a pancake.
'Hercule said the same thing when we saw her.' Goku said quietly as Chi Chi avoided his gaze.
'Well, we aren't married anymore!'
'I know, that's why Hercule took me to a club.'
'And who'd you meet there!'
'I don't think I have to talk to you about that.' He said quietly. 'We're not married anymore.'
She stood up abruptly and turned to boys. 'We're leaving!'
'But mom...' Goten said.
Goku sighed and turned to his sons. 'Obey your mother.'
Goten got up and hugged his father and then stomped outside.
Gohan sighed and gathered his and his brother's things.
'See you guys later.'
Good! Vegan thought as she floated toward window.
No one is home, I can slip in, pretend like this night never happened.
'Not so fast, Princess!'
Damn!
Vegan turned to find her best friend, Android 18 staring at her with her arms folded and wearing a smirk.'Hey, Blondie.'
'Where have you been all night?' Asked Eighteen in a teasing voice as Vegan slipped in quietly.
'Uh...' Vegan decided to play dumb. 'What do you mean?'
'Don't give me that!'
'Don't you-'
'Krillin's at work and Marron's at school.' She said as she handed Vegan an aspirin and a bottled water. 'Oh, thanks.'
'What's his name?' She said with a smirk.
Vegan paused for a second, debating on whether or not to reveal who's bed she spent the night in.
Eighteen watched her closely as she downed the aspirin and water quickly. 'It... it wasn't Hercule again, was it?'
'No, but I'm beginning to think Hercule might have been a better choice.'
'What? Who- who was it?'
'Kakarotto.'
Eighteen was silent for a long time, then suddenly burst into laughter. 'Good one, dude.'
'Not a joke dude.' She said as she turned to Eighteen.
'You and Goku?' Eighteen said quietly. 'Makes since.'
Vegan turned to her. 'Because we're the last two sayains?'
'That and you're more suited for each other, he's forgiving and you're not a controlling bitch!'
'I slept with a married man.'
'Actually, they're divorced.'
'Divorced?' Vegan said, curiously.
'Yep.'
'That would explain Gohan's reaction.'
'Gohan saw you?!'
'Chi Chi nearly caught me.'
'Oh, shit.' Eighteen laughed.
'I'm so glad you're entertained, Eighteen.'
'Eww, you look awful.'
'I feel awful.'
'What'd you drink?'
'Absinthe.'
She rushed into the restroom, slamming the door behind her.
