If Only you knew...

Bra opened her eyes slowly and wondered why she felt so warm. Goten had his arms around her, but he was sound asleep.
'Oh Dende!' Bra bit her lip, so she wouldn't scream.
She smiled at him, 'If only you knew.'
She tried to gently lift his arms off of her so she could get up, but he seemed to be holding her tight. She spoke softly to him, coaxing him to let her go and she got up, he lay on the couch as she wrapped a blanket around him.
'Wow, I actually slept in his arms last night!' Bra thought as he heart skipped a beat. She sang as she walked to the bathroom. She brushed her teeth and watched her face. She looked into the mirror and noticed that her hair was braided. She smiled when she remembered Goten braiding her hair, and she decided it to leave it down, then changed into a long flowy dress.
She peered back into the living room; the three were still asleep. She wrote a note and put it on the refrigerator, because she knew that was the first place they would go when they wake up.
She grabbed a couple buckets, a blanket and went down to the beach. It was not early, or late, but it was summer, mostly everyone sleeps in, so she was one of the few people on the beach.
She went ankle-deep into the water and giggled when the cold water hit her feet. "Thank you so much Dende!" She exclaimed.
She did a little dance on the beach, and saw a couple of kids looking at her, and she stuck her tongue out at them, "Leave me alone!"
She put the blanket down and stared out into the water, daydreaming about Goten.
'I wonder how he feels about me? Why would he sleep with his arms around me if he didn't care for me than more than sister? And what about Paris? Aren't they still together?' She thought.
"Forget about it, today is day of fun. No depression over that Paris," She said to herself.
She started playing with the buckets and started making a sandcastle. It was around noon, people started going out onto the beach. Even though she was wearing a loose dress, it still showed her curves, which caused the young men to just stare at her, but she didn't care, she was happy, and didn't care about anything else.
Pan yawned as she got up. She dragged herself into the bathroom, brushed her teeth, and washed her face. She walked back into the living room, and the guys were still asleep. She looked on the clock and it was almost one o'clock.
"I wonder how I'm gonna wake them," She thought with a smirk.
She pulled the blanket off Goten and pushed him off the couch.
"Leave me alone," He mumbled, as he got up and sat on the couch watching Pan.
She glanced at Trunks, and thought, 'How am I gonna wake him up?' She grinned with a mischievous glint in her eyes.
"Pan? What are thinking?" Goten asked.
She ran into the kitchen, got a glass of ice cold water and dumped it on Trunks.
"Ahhhh!" He screamed.
Pan laughed.
Goten chuckled.
Trunks glared at the two of them.
"I didn't do it, it was her that poured a glass of ice water on you, while you were asleep!" Goten defended himself, so Trunks wouldn't beat him up.
"Thanks for telling on me! Tattle-tale!" Pan rolled her eyes.
Trunks glared at Pan, and walked into the bathroom.
"What time is it?" He asked.
"Almost one," Pan replied.
The two walked into the kitchen.
"Where's Bra?" He asked.
"I don't know. When I woke up, she was gone. You should've seen yourselves last night. You two looked so cute," Pan teased.
Goten blushed and pretended to ignore her last comment and walked to the fridge.
Then he saw her note: Hey guys didn't want to wake you up. I'm at the beach, just come get me when you need me. Love ya!
"What's that?" Trunks asked.
"It's a note from Bra," Goten replied.
Trunks read it and Pan wanted to know what it said.
"What does it say?" She asked.
She tried to grab the note from Trunks, but he wouldn't let her get it.
"I'm sorry. I just couldn't help it," Pan giggled.
Trunks smiled at her, "Panny, you know I can never be mad at you forever. Just make me lunch."
Pan's jaw dropped.
"I won't be surprised it you call her woman," Goten teased.
"I'm not my father!" Trunks frowned at Goten.
"Well, you sure do act like him," Goten smiled that famous Son grin.
"Just stop it! I'll make lunch," Pan said.
"At least I'm not the spitting image of my father, a clueless baka," Trunks smirked.
Goten was about to attack Trunks but Pan yelled, "Goten go get cleaned up!"
"Yes mother," Goten frowned and walked into the bathroom.
Pan slapped Trunks, "That's my grandpa you're talking about."
Goten went down to the beach in search of Bra. 'Why do I feel this way? Do I really care for her more than a sister? What about Paris? Do I even love her?'
He kept on walking following her ki. "Forget it!" He cursed at himself, "just stop thinking and enjoy today!"
He spotted her, wondering why she by herself, because a lot of guys were staring at her, just watching her.
As she looked up at him, a gentle breeze blew her bangs out of her face, and she smiled.
'She's so beautiful,' Goten thought, and mentally smacked himself.
She got up and smiled at him. "Ohayo Goten-kun!" She said as she walked up to him.
He watched her move toward him in what he considered casual gracefulness. "Hey B-chan," He gave her a side hug.
"But it's not morning anymore," He chuckled as he put an arm around her.
"Oh ok, then Konnichiwa," She giggled.
"What are you doing?" He asked.
"Making a sandcastle," She replied as she sat on the sand, "Wanna help?"
"Sure." She smiled up at him, 'I love it when she smiles at me. She has such an open face and clear-eyed honesty. Since when did I start thinking that?' He thought.
Dozens of beachgoers were scattered along the shoreline. Little kids played in the water, laughing and squealing.
He sat down on the sand. "Man, this sand is hot!" Goten said.
Bra giggled, "Try scooping off the top layer first," She demonstrated.
He followed her direction and looked at her. "I'm glad you're here, I was getting kinda lonely," Bra smiled.
"Well do not fear! Your prince charming is here," He teased.
Bra blushed.
For over two hours they stayed with each other finishing the huge castle, they looked at each other and smiled.
"We make a great team B-chan," He grinned.
"That we do. Now what are we gonna do?" Bra asked.
Goten grinned, picked her up and flew out into the sea, and stopped until he reached his desired spot.
Bra tried getting out, screaming and laughing at the same time.
Of course Goten was stronger, so she couldn't get out of his grip.
"Goten-kun! Put me down!" She yelled.
"As you wish, Princess" He smiled and dropped her.
She took this advantage and flew away from him toward the sand, he soon followed.
They walked side by side back to their sandcastle, which now lay in ruins.
"What happened?!?" Bra frowned.
They looked around, and saw the kids she saw earlier, laughing among themselves, while watching the two.
"It's ok B-chan, there's always next time," He said took her hand, "let's go back now, I'm starving."
She nodded and they flew up onto the balcony and walked inside.
The walked into the kitchen expecting to see Trunks and Pan eating already, but instead, Pan was still cooking and herself and Trunks were talking.
"It's past five and you're just cooking? You didn't eat for the past what, two or three hours?" Goten asked.
Trunks looked at the two holding hands and looked at Pan. They smiled to each other.
Bra blushed, and Goten grinned.
"Is that blushing I see Imotochan? Or is it sunburn? Huh?" Trunks teased.
Bra rolled her eyes.
"What about the food?" Goten asked, practically drooling.
"I made lunch...but me and Trunks kinda got into a food fight...and the food is long gone. So now I have to make a new one," She said.
"But it doesn't look like a mess," Bra commented looking around.
"That's because we had to clean it up," Trunks said looking at Pan.
"Does it look like these two want to be alone? You know we could always go back to the beach," Bra teased.
Trunks glared at his sister and Pan to her uncle.
"Okay, we'll stay," Goten said and lifted the lid of the pot and smelled the food.
"Hmmm, smells good," He was about to stick his hand inside, but Pan slapped his hand away.
He sat on the counter next to Bra and Trunks, waiting for the food.
"So what did you two do at the beach huh?" Pan asked.
"You two better not have been making out, if you were, you're both dead," Trunks smirked.
Bra gave her brother, you-better-shut-up-or-I'm-gonna-tell-daddy-look and he did shut up.
Trunks was never afraid of Bra, but of the way she always got their dad to do anything for her, even beating up Trunks.
"We made a sandcastle and I almost dumped B-chan into the water," Goten grinned.
Bra rolled her eyes again.
Soon the food was ready and they ate and talked.
Then the telephone rang, and Bra ran to go answer it.
"Moshi moshi," She said into the phone.
"Hi, is Goten there? This is Paris," She asked.
"Yes, hold on, please."
"Goten-kun, Paris is on the phone for you," She said as she handed him the cordless phone.
"Thanks B-chan, I'll be back," He said and took the phone into his room.
When Bra went back into the kitchen she frowned.
"Hey don't worry about it," Trunks tried to cheer him up.
"Okay. Thanks you guys. If it weren't for you guys to cheer up, I'd be miserable," Bra smiled.
"Goten, I'm sorry it has to be this way," She apologized.
"Nani?" He asked, confused.
"How come I'm always the one calling you and not you calling me. Why am I the only one who is trying keep this relationship together?" She asked.
"Gomen," was all he could say.
"All we ever did do is hang out together. Did you ever feel anything at all?" She asked.
Goten was silent. "Nothing."
"Really?" She asked, almost relieved.
"You mean you didn't either?" He asked.
"No...when we talk on the phone or hung out it was fun though," She replied.
"Friends?" He asked.
"Friends," She answered.
"I guess I'll see you around," She said.
"Ja ne," He said and hung up.
He came out of his room smiling.
"Looks like you had a good conversation," Pan teased.
"The best yet," He smiled, "and probably the last."
The three gave him confused.
"I'll tell you guys later, right now I'm gonna finish my lunch," He said digging in.
"Hey Goten, we need to talk," Trunks later said.
"About what?" Goten asked.
They walked onto the balcony.
"You broke up with Paris huh?" Trunks asked.
"Yeah, but it was mutual decision. I guess we both realized it wasn't going anywhere," Goten replied.
They just sat there looking out onto the beach.
"Are you in love with my sister?" Trunks suddenly asked.
"Where did you get that idea?" He asked, almost defensively.
"Come on, I know you. Don't lie," Trunks said as he sat up.
"Hai, I couldn't help it." He smiled.
"How did you know?" He asked.
"It's obvious," Trunks playfully punched him on the arm.
Goten grinned. "I feel so comfortable around her, and not like I have to try to please her, because just being me makes her happy. I bet it I have it all written on my face"
"That's for sure. I know you'll take care of her, just try to avoid my dad," Trunks chuckled, "Oh and let her know how you feel."
"You mean she doesn't know?" Goten asked.
Trunks shook his head.
"What about you, huh?" Goten asked.
"What about me?" Trunks asked.
"You got a thing for my niece, don't try to deny it," Goten teased.
"Ok, so we know each other too much for our own good," Trunks laughed.
"But at least we realized the truth."
"Yeah, and now we have to see if they do too," Trunks and Goten smiled.
Up in Kami's tower (or whatever it's called), Dende smiled down at the two. "If only you knew..."
