"Sir, you're up early." Said a young-looking redheaded secretary.

The president nodded, continuing onward to his office. Stepping into the large room, he nodded in reply to greetings from his assistant, the second and third command generals, and Dr. Kofun.

"So, where's council standing at this point?" the president asked, taking a seat. His booming voice dragging slightly due to the early hour.

"Forty-six percent for execution, twenty-four percent for life sentence, twenty-eight percent suggest letting things remain as they are, and two percent undecided." Announced the president's assistant.

"What are those twenty-eight thinking?" the second command general said, the question snarled slightly.

"Well, they seem to think that since they are the last, they can be permanently monitored. Perhaps on good behavior, even released from the barriers." The assistant said, his voice cool and calm as he looked over the documents he held.

"That's nonsense!" exploded the third command general, rising from his seat.

"What do you think doctor?" the president questioned.

"It makes no difference to me Alive, dead, as long as we get to study them thoroughly." Dr. Kofun said, smiling somewhat.

"So, what's the plan?" the assistant asked, the papers in order and back in their manila folder.

"We wait Watch them closely! Sooner or later they'll mess up and then we got 'em." The president said, a grin finding it's way onto his face despite the early hour.

--------

"Thank Kami it's Friday!" Yamcha said with a grin on his face as they all made their way out the main exit.

"It's just not the same" Bulma muttered, anger slipping its way into her voice.

"Just stop There's nothing we can do about it. Come on, Bulma, cheer up!" Yamcha said, his attitude switching from serious to playful as he threw an arm around his girlfriend's shoulders.

"Yeah I wonder if he's even thinking about us I mean, it seems like he would have dropped by to visit or something." Bulma said through a sigh Even though it had only been two days Knowing their best friend in the whole world didn't care made it feel like forever.

"I saw him yesterday." Krillin said as they all approached the back parking lot.

"You did?" Chi-Chi asked, the group stopping and giving their bald friend their undivided attention.

Krillin slouched a bit, hands in pockets, "Yeah, he and Vejita came by to get their stuff He seemed really happy And he did apologize."

"Maybe we should go see him sometimes this weekend?" Chi-Chi suggested, glancing at the nearby bus line.

"Great idea, eh?" Yamcha said, looking to Bulma.

The blue-haired beauty smiled, "Right. How about tomorrow? You guys me at my house, okay?"

"Okay Look I got to go, my bus is here See you guys!" Chi-Chi called hurrying to the large orange bus.

Moments later Krillin was heading home as well as the others, all of their hearts a little lighter at the thought of seeing their friend.

Goku yawned, stretching his arms high above him. There's nothing like a nice cool morning, the sun, though it was up, still napped behind the clouds. When he'd woke, Vejita hadn't been beside him It was a bit strange at first, but knowing the proud Saiyajin, he was getting ready for a day of work. Goku slid out of bed and to his feet. The grimy carpet was such a welcome. The cold tiles of all those laboratories were getting old fast.

Ten minutes later, the Earth Saiyajin was in the shower, a warm spray of water cleansing him. Goku enjoyed the shower, though it was short, and was now brushing his teeth, scrubbing well. Vejita still had yet to show himself, but Goku didn't worry, he could since the prince's ki, he wasn't far.

--------

Vejita hated the situation The fact that they were still trapped, but he was glad that he was able to fly around and display his powers as he pleased. All that sneaking around had been such a headache.

He'd risen before the boy and decided to go for a fly. He needed to think about everything, but as he stepped through the, what seemed to be constantly open door of their hotel room, the air told him instantly that Kakarotto was up, and that he'd taken a shower, but he wasn't there, the room empty.

--------

Vejita watched the fat man at the front desk carefully. Sweat was beading up at his huge forehead, obviously the man was scared shitless. The Saiyajin prince forced a smile-like smirk and amazingly the man calmed somewhat. Goku's advice had been correct after all, a smile really does go a long way.

"Is he here?" Vejita demanded, twisting the end of his words to make it seem like a sincere question. His years of roaming the damned mud ball hadn't been in vain. He'd learned the expressions Humans expected and forced them on his face when necessary.

The man nodded, using a smudged handkerchief to wipe the sweat from his brow, "Yeah, in the back."

Vejita headed towards the back, where the largest training room existed, empty of the mindless contraptions Humans had created in the name of fitness.

Goku looked up despite the stinging sweat dripping in his eyes, "Jita, where were you?"

"Looking around. There still aren't any military forces too close to the area. Seems they're keeping away from us, just watching."

Goku marveled at the prince's regal stature. He really was a prince. Vejita was wearing his usual training uniform, this one a bit more worn than his others, but for some reason he looked better than usual, absolutely yummy!

Goku smiled, chuckling as he flipped in the air landing on his slightly wobbly feet, "I noticed tha scars from our operations are pretty much gone."

"Yes, and all your injuries seem to have faded as well. I guess our Saiyajin blood has kicked in now that we have those damn bracelets off."

"Hai." Goku replied simply, "Uh, I'm so hungry!" he said as his stomach growled. He hadn't eaten anything all morning.

The image was too appealing not to stare. The boy was wearing only his gi pants, sweat dripping from his glistening body, all pumped up from the tedious work out. Slowly, Vejita reached out placing a bare finger on the boy's chest and allowing the droplets of sweat to collect there.

Goku watched as his prince carefully licked the sweat, his sweat, from his fingertip, "Hn?"

Vejita snapped from his thoughts at the sound of the boy's questioning grunt. He tried his hardest to keep the blush from rising, barely succeeding.

After a somewhat awkward silence, Goku grinned, deciding to dismiss the matter. Besides, he knew how hard it was to resist sometimes.

"Let's get somethin' ta eat then go for a run, ne?"

Vejita smiled, nodding, more than glad he didn't have to explain what just happened.

--------

"Okay, to tha play field by tha school." Goku said, tightening the sash about his waist.

"What about your boots? I don't want to hear you complaining later that I beat you just because I had boots and you didn't." Vejita said, practically grinning as he boasted the boy.

Goku chuckled, "Nah, I do better barefoot."

"Okay, when you're ready." Vejita said, standing ready.

"Okay, when I say go... Ready? Go!"

In an instant they were both flying down the street at full speed, their movements barely visibly as they remained on the pavement, making sharp turns as they hurried towards the high school playing field. It didn't take long for the green acre to become visible. A little more than three miles and twenty seconds later they were there, Vejita's boot clad foot slamming down on the grass first.

As they slowed, Goku dropped to his knees breathing deeply, "Ah, you win, Jita."

Breathing heavy as well, Vejita smirked, dropping playfully to a sitting position, feeling more than happy about his little victory.

Goku noticed this instantly, "Ya know... If I'd had my boots on..." he said through smile, dropping to a sitting position as well.

Vejita nearly grinned, chuckling as he gave the boy a firm yet playful punch in the shoulder, "You're just a sore loser!"

"Ow!" Goku faked, retaliating with a playful yet quite strong shove.

It was just enough to through the unsuspecting prince off-balance, causing him to lay flat on his back, "I know more than one way to beat you with my feet."
Goku anticipated the kick and grabbed the booted foot with both hands, rising to his knees in preparation to stand and show the prince what he was made of; however, before he could stand, Vejita's other foot came flying, striking him firmly on his right thigh. Seconds later he too was losing balance and toppling forward.

Vejita's smile faded as the boy fell, landing right on top of him, legs tangled, chest to chest. It was an odd feeling; he'd never been in such a position. As he waited for the boy to get the Hell off of him he was surprised as a head full of soft, spiky locks slowly dropped before resting fully on his upper chest and shoulder, the boy's lips near his neck.

"How come I keep wantin' ta be so close to you?"

The air was cooling as evening pressed, and Vejita sucked in a quick breath at the sound of those beautiful words at his throat. After a few more seconds passed, he decided to give up on his pursuit of an answer. Instead, he lay still, waiting and wondering as to what was going to happen next. A minute passed and the prince found himself relaxing slightly.

Goku waited patiently, knowing secretly that no answer was coming. Finally he gave in and went on, pressing for some kind of knowledge, "Do you think of me very much?"

This question seemed more urgent, more curious, and Vejita couldn't not answer, "What's that supposed to mean? How am I supposed to not think about you? We're always together!"

Goku could feel the frustration building as the warrior tried to sort through his thoughts and feelings. Much more of this and... Goku quickly placed a hand to his prince's chest, rubbing ever so slightly in a calming manner.

"Kakarotto... What are you...?" Vejita managed, his body stiffening.

"Just don't get mad yet... I really wanna know if you feel like I do." Goku said through a sigh, realizing his touch seemed to be making things worse. Slowly, he sat up and slid off the older Saiyajin, his bottom resting on the lush grass.

Once the contact was lost, Vejita felt he could breathe easier. It was always this way. At first he'd simply indulged in the little sexual games. A touch here, a kiss there, it wasn't something he hadn't done before. However, lately it seemed a little more pressing on his mind, his very being. The boy didn't understand half the things about sexuality and Saiyajin bonding rituals, and yet, he seemed to be playing into the role perfectly, a perfect, beautiful, submissive, loyal Saiyajin, pure in every way.

"Jita!" Goku said in urgency, easily noticing that his fellow Saiyajin was trying to think his way around his questions, "Why do I always want ta be touchin' you?!"

The prince's mind stilled instantly, he had to answer, now! "I... I think... That you think of me as more... Much more than a friend."

Goku looked down at a tiny budding flower stemming off a tangled piece of grass, the bloom barely visible under the slight leafage, it's nearly microscopic white petals begging to be touched. He let his attention remain there, using the slight distraction as just that, a distraction. His fingers, enormously large in comparison, nearly crushed the fragile thing as he plucked it from its place in the world.

"You're right. I think of you like this." Goku said, grinning like a fool, his most common expression finding its way into the heavy conversation.

Vejita stared at the extended arm practically shoved in his face. At first he'd thought the whole thing was about to be dropped, the boy seemingly obsessed with the damn grass. However, upon closer inspection, he realized the young Saiyajin with holding a flower. Slowly, the prince lifted an open palm, watching as the boy dropped the barely visible thing into his hand. Anger flared.

"What the Hell are you talking about Kakarotto?! You're worse than a fucking woman! I smell like a damn candle and you think of me as a fucking flower!!"

Goku's smile dissolved instantly, "Well... Yeah. You do smell like that candle. Indigo spice. And you do remind me of that little flower. You're so beautiful, but it's hard ta see for everyone but me. And you're so pretty I just want ta touch you all tha time, but I don't want ta hurt ya. I don't want ya ta get mad and make me stop or go away."

Shit! The boy always knew what to say. He always said the right thing! Vejita nearly growled in frustration. How could anyone see such qualities in him!?! The conversation having grown awkward for him, the prince remained silent.

"Heh, I guess I am kinda actin' like a woman. I guess... I guess I might as well be one, right? Those scientists said I was one on the inside." the words were small and mumbled, and although they started out ever so slightly amused, they were filled with grief.

"Shit, Kakarotto, you know better than to take me so literally, especially when I'm pissed. You know... Fuck, you know I have a temper!" Vejita said, starting off consoling and ending with more criticism. "Kami... Okay, listen... We were allies, then friends, best friends, and then something more... Obviously you've noticed we don't behave like normal friends. We sleep in the same bed for Kami's sake!"

"I know... This is sorta like how Yamcha and Bulma are. I know what relationships are, but I never wanted ta be in one before. How come with you I just want you to like me all the time? Why do I always want you so close?" Goku rambled, his brain aching from all this thinking.

Vejita smirked, laughing out loud, "Fuck... Maybe it's love, ne? How the Hell am I supposed to know?"

Goku sighed deeply, "You didn't answer me before... Do you think of me very much? Do you feel like I do?"

Vejita climbed to his feet, "We need to check those barriers. There's still a little light left. Let's go."

Goku sighed again, climbing to his feet as well, "Kay."
