Disclaimer: I do not own DBZ, nor do I own anything that is related except for my poster.
AN: I finally am well again!!! And up and drawing for my website, which I have no idea when it's going to be up. I am sorry for the grammar mistakes in my first two chapters, but I had wrote those a long time ago, so they kinda sucked. I have gotten better since then, and am writing more in my chapters. And just to let you know, this is going to be a long story, maybe some sequels along with it. Because this is only the stepping stone of this story, enough of my rambling, on with the fic!!
Trunks: "Is this the only way...........?"
*~*Chapter 4*~*
Trunks sighed and rolled over onto his side, which he immediately regretted, and was rewarded with a sharp pain. He rolled over to his other side and sighed, falling back into his dreams.
Trunks smiled, he lay on his stomach as he tanned. His whole body felt at ease, no pain emitted from it, the feeling of this was amazing. His tail waved around happily, and imbedded itself in the sand. Suddenly Trunks felt a abnormal pressure on his back, he tried to turn around but was pinned to the sand.
"What?"
Trunks was really annoyed that someone would bother him when he was resting. His reply was a hand touching his tail, oh God, he was in grace as he felt this mysterious person rub up and down his tail, making him completely aroused.
"Ahhh, who are you....mmmmmm?"
A small laughter emitted from the stranger, now Trunks knew it was girl. He turned his head lightly, but felt the girl push it back down.
"Hey!" he yelled, but was replied again with stroking of his tail, which was waving it's tip excitedly.
The girl's mouth went down to his ear and licked the outer alining of it. He could fell her lips come up in a smile. They opened just enough for her to say something.
"BBBBEEEEEEEEEEEEEEPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!"
"AAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!" Trunks landed on the floor with a 'thonk'. He rubbed his sore behind, and got up. Jeez, that was a weird one, he had normally just him a Gokien kissing and things like that, but licking, hmmmmm, it was a strange one. Trunks shook his head and turned his alarm clock off, he then stumbled to his dresser and grabbed a t-shirt and pants. He scratched at his blue boxers and walked to the bathroom.
Trunks groaned when he saw that someone was inside, he banged twice on the large oak door.
"Alright, I'll be out in a minute!"
Trunks didn't bother thinking who's voice it was, he was too occupied with thinking about his dream, he touched his tail, and when he did it sent a shiver down his spine. Just then the door slammed open and out came a very annoyed Gokien. Trunks blushed as he realized she only had a towel on, he felt a little shiver of pleasure run up his spine as he took in her form.
Gokien looked at Trunks weirdly, he had a strange look on his face, like a predator looking at it's prey. She was starting to get scared when she waved her hand infront of his face, and he didn't respond. Gokien backed away from the staring boy and walked quickly to her room, he watched her the whole way as if he was going to pounce on her at any moment.
Trunks watched Gokien turn the corner and disappear from sight, he shook his head violently. What in hell had happened to him, he looked down and blushed beet red, he had a nice tent forming in his pants. Trunks quickly slipped into the bathroom and close the door behind him, what was wrong with him, he had been usually very comfortable around Gokien. But lately he had been having more frequent hotter dreams, and was looking at her weirdly, when she was near another guy, he became extravagantly jealous. This had been happening over the past few days and he really needed to tell his dad about it.
Trunks sighed as he removed his boxers and stepped into the shower, it smelled of Gokien. This was not exactly what he needed, he felt himself become even more aroused. He turned the dial from hot to freezing.
*~*~*~*
Vegeta left quietly and swiftly, as he did usually to get the mail. He had come up with a new strategy, leave the mail there at night and come get it before noon, the woman would not be out then to get her mail so he would not have to listen to her. He grinned to himself, he was so smart.
Vegeta blasted off towards the village. It only took him a minute or two to get to the little town, he smiled, no one was around, he landed quietly next to the mail box, he grabbed the mail and was ready to take off again. Then he heard something that made him cringe.
"Yyyyyyooooohhhhoooooo! Heeeelllloooo! Isn't it just a great coincidence that you and I forgot our mail on the same day!" The lady squealed, damaging Vegeta's sensitive hearing.
"Isn't it just great, I mean I was sssoooo sad to have missed you yesterday but my cousin got his head stuck on his railing, isn't that just weird! And........blah blah blah blah...." Vegeta covered his ears with his hands, and ran off to the edge of the town.
The lady waved. "Buh bye!!!!"
Vegeta growled deep in his throat and blasted off towards the house, he sighed openly as he couldn't see or 'hear' the town anymore. He looked through the mail quickly, he couldn't read this stupid language, but he knew the names of his family. He looked questionably at a red enveloped letter addressed to Trunks, Trunks never got mail. Vegeta shrugged, it must have been from on of his girlfriends. That boy wouldn't have long to decide on a mate, he was sure of that.
*~*~*~*
"Dad!?" Trunks yelled as he saw his father land lightly on the grass.
"What?"
"I have to ask you some questions."
"About how your feeling weird, I'll tell you later, when we spar. Here's a letter for you." Vegeta shoved the red paper towards his son.
Trunks looked at the letter weirdly and pocketed it. He could open that later, he felt Gokien's ki five a sharp rise. Vegeta had felt it too, he could tell that Gokien felt depressed and upset. The older man shrugged and walked away leaving Trunks to find her.
Trunks watched as his father walked off, he shook his head and walked quickly toward the waterfall side. Trunks really thought hard as he walked through the knee high grass. Like, did he really love Gokien, did he really want what he dreamed of, was he ready to leave this place to find a job. He thought about Gokien more than anything, her face was like the gods carved it perfectly, her laughter was like music to his ears. Her goodness, she must have got it from her father, which only made him like her more, her smile showed exactly what she was thinking. But her eyes was the thing that really made his heart skip, they were endless black pits with just a small splash of blue when she cried, when she was happy you could see streaks of brown, they were perfect, just like her. Did he really love Gokien, he didn't have to think twice, he knew he did.
Did he really want to become a business man, did he really want that, leave Gokien and Goten. Was this supposed to be this way, was he supposed have this much trouble choosing his dream. Maybe his life was supposed to be like this, so he would know what he could have done. This was his life and he was going to go with it, come what may, he was ready.
Trunks watched his feet as they skipped across the grass, till it came to cleanly cut green grass. He smiled as he saw the familiar cascade of water, and the girl on the rock watching it.
"Gokien......"
She turned around revealing that she had indeed been crying, the wet lines on her cheeks just added to the fire that Trunks felt. Why did she have to get hurt so much? Why couldn't Goku have come back when he had the chance? Why did she and Goten have to hurt so much? Sure Goten never showed any emotion when he mentioned his father but Trunks knew he was angry at his dad. Why do these depressing things happen to people anyway? Trunks shook his head of his thoughts and walked over to the girl.
"Gokien?"
Trunks lifted his hand and went to place it on her shoulder, but she shrugged it off and got up from her rock.
"What's wrong?"
"Come to stare some more?"
Trunks scratched his head. "What do you mean?"
"Oh, she doesn't have a father so I'll just comfort her because I feel sorry for her....nice Trunks real nice," she turned to face him. "But I don't need your sympathy!"
Trunks was totally taken back by her outburst, she was never like this. "I....."
"Don't you dare say, I'm sorry!" She screamed, her rage was building with every word he said.
"But I......I just want to help." Trunks said lightly.
"Sure whatever! Trunks you always want to help! So let me ask you this, did you help that girl into my BED!!!!!"
Trunks's eyes widened. "What!?"
"You heard me! I found some girl's bra underneath my bed this morning after I took my shower!"
"How?"
"Gee, I don't know, I guess I was looking for my spare wrist guard and I found it under there." Gokien said sarcasm dripping off the words.
"I didn't mean for that to happen it's just....."
"Trunks you never mean for ANYTHING to happen, it just does right!?"
"Why should you care anyway?!"
"Because this happened in MY bed, if it wasn't in MY bed I wouldn't have a problem with it but it was so......" She lifted her hands. "Problem!"
Trunks kept his head down. "I'm sorry...."
"Trunks you say your sorry then you'll do it again!"
Trunks lifted his eyes to her. "NO!!! I really mean it this time!"
Gokien stepped back. "Does this have something to do with the way you looked at me this morning?"
"No! I don't know what that was, but my fuse has been really short over the past week!"
"Fine! But I want to tell you something! You stay out of my room with sick bimbos or I'll beat you into a pulp!" With that said Gokien stormed off to the house leaving Trunks there to think.
Why had he snapped at her? She had every right to be mad. He knew he was having some sort of mood swing, but he still couldn't figure it out. He had slept with that girl, right after his 18th birthday, he had been feeling rowdy. Camy, that was the girl's name, she had been a waitress, a drunk waitress. He had also been drunk, and with Camy grabbing his tail that day didn't really help, so he had taken her into Gokien's room and gave her what she wanted, he never heard from her again. It was no biggy, it's not like he loved her or anything. Trunks shrugged it off and followed Gokien to the house.
*~*~*~*
What the heck had been with him lately? First with the girl in her room thing, then with the snapping. Gokien sighed, some things were better off left unnoticed, but he had really been mad. She heard his footsteps behind her, but didn't think much of it, he wasn't her problem......but she really felt bad. Trunks was one of her best friends........she stopped and waited for him.
Trunks looked and saw Gokien standing, facing him.
He stopped. "What's wrong?"
Gokien didn't say anything.
"What is it?"
"I'm sorry," and with that she walked away, not looking back.
Trunks gasped, oh god, he had really been a jerk this time. Her eyes, they had shown no emotion, nothing whatsoever. He ran to her.
"No, I am, I shouldn't have snapped at you."
Gokien smiled and held out her hand. "Friends?"
Trunks smiled at her hand. "Nope."
Gokien looked at him weirdly.
He smiled. "Best friends!" and took her hand.
Gokien smirked. "Let's go home!"
They both walked slowly to the house.
*~*~*~*
Videl watched as Vegeta, Gohan, Goten, Trunks, Pan, and Gokien all ate at their alarming rate. She was so happy now, she had Gohan, and Pan, soon to have another baby, and they were going to move into a new house in Satan city. Everything was going well, she smiled at Gokien and Trunks, who were fighting over a piece of bread. Those two were going to make a great couple some day, she knew it, Gohan knew it, and she suspected that even Vegeta knew, except them. It was funny, no on ever even thought that her and Gohan would go out, and now she was married to him, with one beautiful daughter and another little one coming, this was the time of her life. Her thought's were interrupted by Trunks getting up and stretching.
"Ahh, thanks Videl that was great!! I have to get ready to spar though." with that he walked off.
Trunks made his way up the stairs and into his room, he looked into the mirror and smirked, he was going to spar soon, which meant he was going to see a bunch of bruises on himself later. He walked to his dresser grabbing his gi, taking off his pants he searched through the pockets and found the letter that his dad had gave him.
On the front was just a Trunks Ojisama nothing special. He ripped the top off and took the paper the was inside, it was written in very good hand. It read:
Dear Trunks,
It is your 18th birthday, congratulations. You probably don't remember me, my name is Bulma Briefs, owner of Capsule Corp. in South City. I have watched you over the past years, and was very pleased with your work in the field of business. Anyway, I would like to tell you something first, so you know the truth. I loved your father very much, and had you with him, you may or may not know according to what your father has said about me. But my proposition is for you to come and be the president of Capsule Corp. I am getting too old to stay the president and I cannot do this anymore, you are the first born, it is your choice. If you chose to I will be waiting at the South City Mayor's Building at 10:00 am on Sunday morning.
Love,
Your Mother
Trunks let his head fall, his father had never said anything about his mother, NEVER. He felt his short fuse pop.
Trunks grabbed his gi, took off his shirt, and slipped it on. He walked silently down the stairs, out the door and into the gravity room.
Vegeta was already waiting there.
"What took you so long boy!?"
Trunks didn't answer he just brushed past his father.
"Answer me when I'm speaking to you boy!"
Trunks pivoted and looked at his father. "How come you never told me about mom?"
Almost instantly Vegeta's expression changed from fuming to completely emotionless. He said nothing and got into position.
Trunks snarled, letting out a low growl from deep in his throat. He slammed into Vegeta's head with his elbow, and quickly twirled and kicked him in the back. Vegeta who had not expected this, fazed out. Trunks was angry beyond belief, his hair lifted to a golden yellow and his muscles bulged. He tackled his father and landed hard punches into his face. He round housed Vegeta into the wall, his father did nothing to fight back, Trunks grabbed his head and kneed it. He tackled his father again and barraged him with punches.
He grabbed his father's hair and lifted him till he was at eye level with him. "TELL ME!!!!!"
Vegeta didn't answer, he was in shock. Trunks growled hard and uppercutted him into a wall. He grabbed his father's head and punched it hard, sending the older man reeling. Trunks yelled again and powered up, rocketing toward Vegeta he beat his own father down to the ground. After much fighting Trunks, trying to catch his breath, grabbed his father's head and pulled his fist back gathering power. Vegeta opened one of his eyes.
He spoke softly but clearly. "I...I....wa...was....ashamed."
Trunks face fell and his hair turned to normal, the great Vegeta, the prince of all saiyans, ashamed????? He put his fist down and got up, looking in a rack along the wall, he grabbed a sack. Took a small pill from it, walked over to Vegeta and gave it to him.
"Why didn't you tell me before?"
Vegeta looked at his son. "Because she kicked me out of the house, I wouldn't tell her I loved her, so she told me to get out, to take you with me and never come back." Vegeta said, he leaned against the wall.
"It wasn't until that happened did I really know that I loved her, but....it was too late."
Trunks looked down. "She asked me to come and work at Capsule Corp."
Vegeta's eye twitched. "So, what are you going to do?"
"I don't know, I was going to ask permission from you."
"You have my permission, you know you can."
Trunks looked at him weirdly. "Are you sure?"
The older man nodded. "Yes."
Trunks sat down on the cold floor. "Can you also tell me what is wrong with me?"
Vegeta smirked. "You're in heat."
"What?"
"After a saiyan's 18th birthday, they go in heat every full moon. I don't have that problem, because your mom is my mate, I am bonded to her till I die. You have found your mate, and because you are near her you start acting strange, your not as bad as the brat is going to be."
"Goten?"
"Yeah, he doesn't have a mate and probably won't in the next few years, he's 17 and when he goes in heat he's going to be worse than he is now."
Trunks nodded, he knew it was true. "Who is mine?"
Vegeta smirked and walked to the door. "You already know." and with that he left.
"Is this the only way?" Trunks asked himself then exited.
*~*~*~*
Trunks spent the last few days of his time thinking. He agreed to go and become president of Capsule Corp., and he had made his father promise not to tell anyone, especially Gokien this news. These were his last days with her, he had taken Goten to his favorite team's football game, and had bought Gokien a necklace, which he had intended to give her before he left. He would leave before sunrise and no one would know where he was. Vegeta had gone to the mountains like he did every year to meditate, actually he would stand and look below him but it was just about the same. Gohan and Videl had moved out three days earlier, and Goten was off with his girl friend. Trunks was watching the blank TV screen when he heard someone walk in.
*~*~*~*
