'God, the moon is so stunning.' Vegan sang as she twirled around the meadow.
Goku smiled as Vegan pranced around under the full moon; she was alluring like this.
Was she drunk? Goku wondered. He didn't remember her taking a drink.
'Do you think Krillin and Eighteen will be angry at us for taking off?'
'They'll forgive us.'
Vegan beamed as she swaggered over to him. 'I probably would have chosen you.'
'What do you mean?'
'As a mate.'
Goku couldn't believe what he was hearing. 'What?'
'I mean, we owe it to our people to, at the very least, sire a child.'
'We can have a child now, but that's not- we could have married and in love.'
'What's stopping us from falling in love now?'
What was stopping them now?
What had stopped him before?
Admittedly, he always did have a bit of a crush on her; oh god, how you not be captivated by her?
Bloomer wasn't, which made Goku doubt his brightness.
'You like more than Chi Chi does. I know she loved me, but when she learned that I was sayain, she- she started to pull away. When we were on Odayaka, I wanted to let go, take you so bad.'
'Then we wouldn't have our sons, Goten and Trunks.'
'Do you want to be my girlfriend?'
'What?'
'We could be mates.'
'Mates?' Vegan laughed. 'You and I?'
'Why not you and I?' He took her by the chin; her ebony eyes stared at him. 'And you said it yourself; we owe it to our people.'
Vegan reddened and broke away, laughing as she did. 'Alright, I challenge you to seduce me.'
'Challenge?!'
'You have six months to make me fall head over heels, unreasonably and desperately, in love with you.'
'That's not how love works.'
'And that's coward talk.'
'You think I'm afraid?!' It was now his turn to laugh.
'I think you're worried that you've finally met your match.'
'Tch. I accept your challenge.'
