I awoke wrapped in the large warm arms of my koi, my mate, my Kakarot. He looked as beautiful now as when I very first laid eyes on him... So long ago now. He looked sweet, peaceful and content, even in his sleep he wore that baka grin of his. He sighed gently and wrapped his arms tighter around my waist. His nose nuzzled into my chest and one leg thrown over mine, I was completely satisfied, and nothing could be more perfect than this. He opened one of his eyes and then quickly closed it.

"I saw that Kakarot!" His smile widened, and he opened both his eyes, bright shining jewels. "I thought it was a dream, I was worried I'd wake up alone in my own bed again." His expression saddened, but then quickly returned to his beautiful happy smile, looking deep into my eyes.

"Kakarot it is a dream, but that doesn't make it any less real." I grinned as he embraced me fully laying sweet butterfly kisses across my chest. He slid himself up my body a bit so we were face to face. I ran my tongue across his bottom lip and drew him into a long deep kiss. "Would you like to carry this on upstairs in my....Our room, the floor is getting slightly uncomfortable." He smiled and nodded. We both slipped back into our underwear, which we found, strewn across the kitchen and then with Kakarot's arms again wrapped around my waist I began to lead the way upstairs. We had just got to the foot of the stairs when there was a knock at the door. We turned to look down the hallway at the front door, and stood there were the brats. "Hey dad!" Kakarot's son spoke first seemingly unfazed to find his father half naked wrapped around me also half naked. But then again why would that faze them in any way?

Trunks spoke next, "So I see everything went nicely then, I assume you enjoyed dinner and I know you enjoyed dessert!" "Don't be a smart ass brat!" He smirked a habit I believe he may have inherited from me. Goten grinned mirroring his father exactly, a strange feeling. To stare at your exact counterparts is slightly odd!

"Don't worry dad we won't stay long, we just came to see how everything went and it obviously went well!" Hmmm, does Kakarot being my mate make Goten my son too? Does that then mean that Trunks is like Kakarot's son? I will need some time to work out all this mate business. _Kakarot tell them nicely to leave I don't trust myself to be pleasant. _ _Heh, sure thing koi! _ "Uh boys you couldn't come back a later on could you, it's just um.."

"You want to fu.."

"Trunks! You want to be alone. We understand don't we." "Yeah Ten-Chan we understand." They left and Kakarot and I went to our room.



~*~*~*~*~*~ We were curled up on the bed wrapped in each other's arms. Vegeta's breath was just beginning to slow back to normal. "Can we stay like this?" "We're going to have to get out of bed sometime Kakarot but we can stay like this for..."

"No I mean more like can we stay like this forever, together I mean, happy, in love." "Of course! I love you, I think I have probably always loved you and I know that I always will love you. Forever." He pulled me close. "I told you Ai shiteru Kakarot!" "No you didn't."

"What! Of course I did! Don't be a baka!"

"No I mean when you said it you didn't call me Kakarot you called me Goku!" "Did I?"

"Hai."

"Hmmm, well it doesn't matter really, point is, I love you!"

"I love you too 'Geta.... Forever!" ~*~*~*~*~*~The Beginning~*~*~*~*~*~
