Trunks jumped almost a foot in the air before whipping around to face the
door. But it was still closed and he knew that his father was on the other
side.
"Trunks, I know you're awake. I know that Goten is there and that you heard me and your mother. talking, even if that woman doesn't. So listen to me."
Trunks stood motionless, his eyes wide and stuck on the door.
"I want you to know that whatever happens between me and your mother from now on is none of your concern, no matter what that woman says, you got it?" He then made his way down the stairs without another word, and not waiting for a reply.
Trunks stood there for a minute or two, absorbing what his father had said, before shakily walking backwards and sitting on the edge of his bed. His mind was racing. I knew this would cause problems, he thought, but whatever little bit of family that we had is crumbling to pieces!
"Was that Vegeta?"
Trunks looked down and saw Goten looking up at him.
He ran his hand over Goten's forehead and said softly, "What are you doing up?"
Goten dropped Trunks' gaze and said, "Well, since that window is open, I got really cold and woke up and saw that you were gone and mmph!"
Trunks had put two of his fingers over Goten's mouth. "Hush," he whispered with a small smile. He took his hand away then pushed the hair back off of Goten's forehead. "You worry to much," he said softly before leaning over and brushing his lips over Goten's forehead.
When Trunks stood up, Goten asked, "Where are you going?"
Trunks smiled sweetly and said, "I'll be back in a sec. Wait here, alright?"
Goten smiled back, but his eyes were still filled with worry. He knew that Trunks was very good at masking his feelings, and he never wanted to worry Goten with anything. Goten rolled over to face the wall, still wondering if Trunks was really ok.
Trunks walked slowly to the open window. A cold breeze was blowing through, rustling his hair. He was going to close the window, but before he could, he fell to his knees and san on his feet with his head in his hands and cried silently, his whole body shaking with sobs. When Trunks felt arms wrap around his shoulders, he sniffed and said, "I thought you were going to wait for me." There was no reply, so Trunks leaned back until his head found Goten's shoulder, and they sat like that until the sun rose. *
Author's Note: Holy poop on a stick! I didn't know I had such faithful fans. I love you guys! 8.8 Lady Raenef: I still can't believe you're crying. Trunks Gal: SHADDAP! Also, I just wanted to say to Ryu-Mizu that I'm glad someone else besides Lady Raenef noticed the French names. I was writing the part with the teacher in Do You Love Him? during my French class, so that's where I got the inspiration for the names. I think we had gone through three French teachers by then, so that was inspiration for the substitute teacher. It's all tied together. lolz x_x So, now onto Chapter Seven!
