Chapter 11: Girls are bad for Chibis!
This being her third time babysitting Trunks and Goten, Jasmine was getting used to watching them eat. She had also warned her sisters, but any amount of verbal caution couldn't possibly prepare someone for seeing a Saiya-jin eat for the first time.
"You are disgusting," Violet finally said, wrinkling her nose at Trunks.
"That is not polite, Vi," Jasmine scolded. "And what did I tell you about being polite when I brought you?" Violet didn't say a word, just frowned down at her plate. Trunks stuck out his tongue in victory when his babysitter was looking away.
After dinner, Goten and Trunks attempted to retreat to Goten's room. They were cut off by Jasmine, who ushered them back out into the yard with her sisters. "I'm counting on you two to keep an eye on Violet and Lily," she said aside to them. "They don't normally go around climbing trees and being outside. Violet has a tendency to wander off, too. Please do it for me?" Her real goal was to keep the kids outside until dark, minimizing the time cooped up inside with four children, though she wasn't lying at all about Violet wandering off. She had already seen signs of the tension between the girls and the boys, and wasn't eager to have them in an enclosed space longer than needed.
Trunks agreed reluctantly, right after a hardly more enthusiastic Goten. "Thanks bunches boys," she said cheerily as she ruffled their hair and sent them on their way.
"Girls suck," Trunks sighed. "And now we're stuck watching two of 'em."
"Lily kissed me. That was gross," Goten said, rubbing his cheek where the kiss had been placed like something had bitten him. "I don't LIKE girls!"
"Betcha do and won't admit it!" Violet snickered. She had managed to sneak up behind the boys while they were sulking. "All boys do. Jasmine said so."
Trunks glared back at the house, feeling betrayed. "Yeah, well if that were true, which it's not, then I would have to bet that girls like boys, too."
"We do not!" Violet protested. Lily joined the group, listening carefully.
"I do!" Lily said, latching her arms onto Goten's waist and smiling sweetly. Goten's face paled, then blushed beet red.
"LET GO OF ME! YOU'RE GOING TO GIVE ME COOTIES!" the chibi Saiya-jin shrieked, trying to run away. But Lily's grasp on him was too strong, and he just couldn't shake her.
"I'm not going to let go until you say you'll be my boyfriend!" Lily replied. She had to shout to be heard over Goten's screaming, but her grip only tightened. Goten plopped to the ground, his lip quivering, as Lily flashed him yet another hopeful grin.
"Okay! I'll do it! Just let go!" Goten pleaded. Lily squealed in delight and hugged him tightly around the neck. "Urgh! I... can't.... breathe!" he complained, and she loosened her hold slightly.
"Ha! Goten's got a girlfriend!" Trunks teased.
"Traitor," Violet snapped at Lily.
"But he's so cute!" Lily insisted, causing Goten to turn a lovely shade of crimson. "His hair is so spiky and adorable!" Goten started trying to flatten his hair out, without success, of course.
"Give it up, she's got it bad for you," Trunks chuckled. Lily did seem to practically have hearts in her eyes as she looked at her precious Goten, still clinging to his arm.
Pretty soon Jasmine noticed the children's lack of movement and went over to investigate. "Hey, what's going on?" she asked.
"Lily's a traitor. She likes boys," Violet said quickly, her tone revealing her utter disgust.
"She made Goten be her boyfriend," Trunks added, obviously equally appalled. Goten just gave his babysitter a pleading look that plainly begged to have the girl removed from his arm. Lily seemed to be the only happy one of the bunch with her head resting on Goten's shoulder and a contented smile on her face.
"Okay, Lily, it's fine and good to make Goten be your boyfriend." Goten shot Jasmine an evil look for this. "But," Jasmine added quickly, "if he doesn't want you latched on to him, then you shouldn't. If Goten's going to be your boyfriend, you have to treat him nice, or he won't like you." Lily reluctantly let go, and Goten scurried to hide behind his babysitter. When he peeked around, his "girlfriend" blew a kiss at him, and he made exaggerated gagging sounds.
Trunks glared at Violet before he too snuck behind his babysitter's legs to shield himself from the two girls. "No cooties for me," he muttered.
"Chicken," Violet smirked. "You're so scared of cooties that you run away from a girl!" She stuck out her tongue boastfully. Trunks lunged for her, but Jasmine managed to catch him by the back of his shirt.
"That's it!" Jasmine said harshly. "You're all going inside, NOW!" She half- dragged Trunks by his shirt and pushed Goten from behind, while the girls followed behind sullenly. "You are all in trouble. Girls, I promised Chichi you wouldn't make any trouble, but you did. And boys, you weren't any help. No more outside play tonight, and no TV either." She sat them all on a row on the couch and told them to sit quietly until she thought of proper punishment. She made sure that the order wouldn't cause any disturbances. Trunks was on one end, then Goten, then Violet, then Lily.
Finally, Jasmine thought of something that would take care of the problem. "Trunks and Goten, you're to take your bath. Violet and Lily, you're going to help me finish cleaning the kitchen. And if I hear a word of complaint, I can come up with worse." Trunks and Goten shuffled down the hall towards the bathroom, while Jasmine's sisters began helping her tidy up the kitchen.
When Chichi and Goku arrived about an hour later, the boys were clean and playing quietly in Goten's bedroom, while the girls sat on the couch coloring. The kitchen shone spotless.
"Did everything go alright?" Chichi asked.
"For the most part. There was a little disturbance for a while, but it was settled quickly," Jasmine replied. "Nothing broken, no huge messes, and no one hurt."
"Wonderful!" Chichi said with a proud smile. "Boys! Come say goodbye to Jasmine!" Trunks and Goten scurried into the living room, careful to get on the opposite side of their babysitter from her sisters. Jasmine hugged them both before ushering Violet and Lily out the door. Lily broke away at the last second, planting a quick kiss on Goten's cheek before running back to her sisters.
"Bye-bye Goten!" she giggled. Then they left.
Goten's face was pale, and he didn't seem to be able to move. Trunks shoved him, and he roused from his shock when he hit the floor. "I HATE IT WHEN SHE DOES THAT!" he shrieked.
