Trunks gathered up the dragon balls on his bed, looking over all seven. It had taken him a short a time to collect them, but he had been saving them for a special wish. He sighed and sat down. How could he explain what he wanted to wish for to Goten? Trunks wondered what his boyfriend would think.
He gulped and hid them back in the closet when Goten walked into the room. Goten saw Trunks putting something far back in the closet. "Hey Trunks, whatcha doin'?" He said winking.
"I was...errr....cleaning, yeah that's it! This closet is a mess!" Trunks said shaking his head. It wasn't very convincing.
"You never clean....What are you hiding from me?" He tried to peer around Trunks' shoulder.
"Nothing...." Trunks shut the closet and leaned against it.
"..What's in there?"
"NOTHING, OKEY?!" Trunks yelled.
Goten sighed. Lately Trunks was being very suspicious and quick tempered. He definitely had a secret. But the question was...What? Goten worried maybe Trunks had found somebody else, and didn't love him anymore, so he decided to forget about whatever was in the closet.
"Ok, ok! Never mind! Lets go get something to eat.." He pinched Trunks' butt when he was walking out the door. As soon as he left, Trunks breathed a sigh of relief and walked out after him. His secret was safe...For now. ************************************************************************Goten was cooking diner and Bra and Pan were over at their house. They had been living together for about a year, and the two girls came over to visit them a lot. They were very happy for the two, and were the only people in the family who treated them normal. The others had accepted it by now, but it still was never the same with their mothers. ChiChi and Bulma still treated them differently then before. Goku was confused, as usual and only blinked when they held hands or something of the sort. It was obvious that he wanted to ask them questions, but ChiChi told him not to. And Vegeta...There was something up with him. He seemed in a way sad when he saw them together, but other then that everything was fine with him.
When Trunks made his way into the kitchen, Goten started thinking about what happened earlier, but tried his best to forget about it. "Konnichi wa, Trunks!" Pan and Bra said at the same time, then started to laugh. They were almost sisters, and they did things like that a lot.
"Hey.." He replied, and sat down at the table. Goten set out the food for them. It was very bad chicken. But they all ate it anyway- since they were saiyans and didn't really care. After dinner Bra and Pan announced they were going to Bra's house, because Pan was sleeping over. "I'll drive you." Trunks said. "Its much two late for two girls like you to be walking home alone!"
"Trunks! We're saiyans, remember?" Pan said.
"Yeah, but I still don't want to make you walk alone." He waved his hand to Goten and the girls got their jackets. When they were gone, Goten went up to his and Trunks' room to....investigate. ************************************************************************Goten opened the closet slowly. He was expecting to find another guys' picture or something in there, but what he DID find shocked him even more. The dragon balls. Why would Trunks hide them from him? He picked one of them up in his hand. Just then he heard somebody open the door downstairs. (Kuso! Trunks is home!) he thought, and he tried to put the ball back, but tripped on his shoelace an fell right on his face, instead! Trunks walked in and saw him on the floor holding the dragon ball. "Goten...What are you doing?"
Goten got up to his feet. "Nothing just.....Why were you hiding this from me?" He held the ball out.
Trunks sighed. "I don't think you need to know..."
"Yes I do! Tell me! What were you gonna use it for?" He sat on the end of the bed. "I...Had an idea, its dumb, really. Since I decided against my idea, I was just storing them in there."
Goten raised on eyebrow. "And what was your idea?" ************************************************************************"YOU WANT A KID?" Goten said really loud.
Trunks sighed. "Yes..."
"Why?"
"I don't know...Don't; you think it would be nice to have our own son? One we could train and raise together......?"
Goten thought. "Yes...But the kid would have two dads! Wouldn't that be a little weird?" "No, he would have Bra and Pan around to help raise him...." Trunks looked like he was going to cry. "Never mind, it was a dumb idea..."
Trunks looked so sad, Goten felt bad for him. "It wasn't a stupid idea...."
"Then you WANT to ask the dragon for a son?" He said, getting some hope in his eyes. "I'll think about it..." ************************************************************************"What is your wish?" The dragon boomed in its deep, dragon voice. Goten gulped. He still couldn't believe that Trunks had talked him into this. He just hoped his mom wouldn't flip out.
"Oh eternal dragon, we wish for a child!" Trunks yelled.
"Your wish...is my command!" The dragon's eyes glowed red and it disappeared. The two of them looked around. They couldn't see a little boy anywhere. Then they heard a baby crying. Goten ran to see where it was coming from. He spotted the baby, wrapped in a cloth, on the side of their house. His mouth dropped open. ************************************************************************"A girl!!! What are we gonna do now, huh?" Goten yelled. The little girl was dressed now, and sitting on Trunks' lap.
"I think she's cute!" he said, tickling her.
"Yeah but...She doesn't have a mom! You should have been more specific!" Goten said, more calmly because he noticed that the little girl WAS really cute. She looked like him and Trunks, all rolled into one person. Black hair, with blue eyes. The dragon had done a good job creating her.
"I know but...." Trunks just smiled. "Should we name her?"
"Y...Yeah, I guess. How about...Trunksett?"
"Nah...What about.....Mary?" Goten shook his head.
They had to think of something good. " How about....Chanson!"
Trunks' eyes lit up. "That's great! So her name is Chanson?"
"Sure." The little girl was wiggling around in Trunks' lap and looking very happy.
