As always with everything, no I don't own Dragon Ball Z, their characters or anything of the similar.

So with that out of the way, hope you enjoy this story.

LOVE WILL FIND A WAY Chapter 1 - The Truth Hurts

I know this can't be happening; there is no way that I could be like this. It might be just a fantasy that's all, but it's not, it's reality... but if it's meant to be such a wrong thing, then why would it feel so right? No one would accept me if I said that I really felt this way, that this is who I am and I can't change that. I would loose all my friends plus my girlfriend, my family would disown me and worst of all, I would become an outcast, not a single person on this Earth would want to know me, let alone take a glance at me.

"You seem to have a lot on your mind tonight Goten"

"Huh? Oh, yeah. I'm just figuring a few things out Mel."

"Look if you're not in the mood tonight, you could have just said so. I didn't come all this was just to have you push me away again." Melanie jumped off the bed and gathered her clothes. "This is not going to work if you won't tell me what's on your mind. You're just so distant and mysterious lately."

"I'm sorry, if you really want to know, I'm just having lots of trouble at uni lately. Just with a few of the guys. Nothing I couldn't handle though." Goten sat up and tapped the bed, motioning Melanie to sit down beside him. She sat down and cuddled up into her lovers' arms. "Well you have traveled all this way to see me…" Goten's grin turned naughty and he pounced on top of the girl.

Melanie giggle with delight as Goten started tickling her sides, it soon stopped as their eyes met, "you do know that I love you, don't you Goten?" Goten smiled and began to kiss her neck, causing Melanie to giggle once again. His hands caressed her naked breasts as he continued to kiss her entire body.

Noticing Melanie wasn't moving too much, he realized something was wrong, "are you okay?"

"Goten, there has been something I've been meaning to tell you." He knew exactly what was coming, it wasn't the first time a girl had told him that she was a virgin.

"I know what you're going to say and look, if you want to stop at any time, just tell me. I promise I will still respect you for it." Melanie's eyes slightly produced tears at these words. She rolled him onto his back and straddled his tight abs. Goten always knew exactly what to say to his girlfriends, no matter the experience or age of the female.

"You have no idea how long I have waited for this Goten, I have been wanting to make love with you from the day we met." Her arms traveled to his hands and pushed them above his head. Melanie grabbed them both with one hand as she felt his protruding chest muscles with the other. Her lips came into contact with Goten's and impulses shot through her body. The time was right and Melanie now wanted him more then ever, she lifted her hips and moved them further down his body. She eased herself onto his member and her face grimaced with slight pain.

"Are you ok?" Goten really loved this woman, but he couldn't seem to sound concerned. It was becoming just like all the other times. Stay with the female till the fucks become boring and off with the girlfriend. I'm not going to be like that anymore! Goten thought to himself, trying to convince his body that this time would be different. "I love you Melanie." He took his gaze away from her bouncing bust and up to her face. She smiled and lent down to kiss him once more. Goten grabbed her hips and followed her every movement; he closed his eyes and took in all the sensations his body was sending him. It was driving him crazy; he had never experienced someone like this. It made him wonder whether she was telling the truth earlier about being a virgin, but that soon disappeared as his climax began to take over.

"Come on Goten, just a little longer…" Melanie pleaded, Goten tried to hold it in, but it made it even worse.

"Oh Trunks!" Goten yelled as he came. Melanie stopped and stared in horror at her boyfriend. "Oh shit," he added seeing her expression. Melanie hopped off him and began gathering her clothes again.

"I'm sorry, I, I don't know what happened Melanie." He grabbed her arm and a hand smacked him hard across his face. "I know exactly what you were thinking, don't think that I haven't noticed you staring at your friend when we're together. I thought I was just being crazy thinking that you were gay, but now I know the truth!" Goten grabbed both of her arms this time, not wanting the other cheek to throb.

"I have no idea what you're going on about! I am not gay, I'm being serious, I don't know what happened!" Melanie stopped struggling against him and Goten eased his grip.

Melanie broke free of his grasp, got dressed and walked out of his room.

"And that virgin stuff, I could tell that was bull shit! No virgin moves like that!" Goten yelled, remembering his earlier thoughts.

She stopped in her tracks and turned to face her pain, "yeah well maybe I just watch a lot of sex on t.v, ever thought of that?!" Melanie turned on her heel, only to face Chichi blocking her exit.

"Oh, so now your mother has to try and stop me! Look, get out of my way. I want nothing to do with either of you ever again. You may not have been a bad boyfriend Goten, but to hide the fact that you're gay and try to cover it up with me… Fuck!" Chichi allowed Melanie to pass and looked at her son, they both frozen in shock. Goten quickly shut his door, realizing he was still naked and not completely 'relaxed' yet.

Goten collapsed against the door and held his head confused. Trunks? Of all people, why yell him? I can't be… can I? A knock on the door distracted his thoughts. "Goten honey, are you alright?"

"Yeah mum, I'm fine, just a bit confused."

"Can I come in?" There was a long silence. "Goten?" Still nothing. Chichi felt the resistance against the door had gone, so she slowly opened it while softly calling her son's name. Chichi stepped into the room, only to find the room empty and a window left open. She ran to the window and peered out, her gaze fixated on a figure disappearing into the distant sky, "Goten!" It was no use though; her son was gone and probably wouldn't be back for a while.
