A-Chan: Hey there everyone! Nice to hear from me again? Bet you've been waiting on me for a while... boy am I slow. Well, I just got a new job, so it's hard to find time for this. But I'll do it, no worries. I love my fans! ^-^ And, I love your encouragement. So, please, keep on reviewing, it's pretty helpful to me!

So.. I think I need to warn you now, if I haven't already, that this fic will contain lemons, rape, violence, blood, language, etc. Still sure I warned you already.... :S Well, it's also a slightly long fiction, so the rape and violence won't be for a while... but guess what?! A lemon might be coming soon! In a chapter or so, I am sure. You know.. this fiction will be like my other ones in a sense that it will make you depressed. That's just how I write. But it is still a lot different. The plot is deeper... and... yeah.. What am I doing?? Eeekk... here I go blabbing on about nuffin.. sorry.. go ahead, read on!! :P ^-^

" Equal feelings?" I ask, unsure.

" Oh don't get your hopes up! I'm merely admitting to having.. well.. some sort of respect for you!" He crosses his arms.

Now this really gets me thinking.

" But, our feelings have to be equal for each other for us to feel each other's feelings, right?" ( A/N tongue twister :S) I ask curiously.

" Yes. They must be close to equal for us to. Well, at least that's what I think. I don't know much about it."

Equal... but... I have strong feelings for him... I mean... STRONG. The feelings I have for him are deep, too. If they are equal... does that mean he...? I stop thinking abruptly when I notice his stare. He does not say anything. He heard...

" Well of course I heard, I explained to you that we could do that." He grunts.

" Well stop!!"

" It's not like I can!!!"

" Well... well.. Fine I'll stop thinking." I cross my arms and face the wall.

" You're so childish." He remarks.

" So what! Stop listening in on my thoughts!"

" I can't help it!!!" He screams.

" Well, I do not want you to hear my thoughts. Maybe it is personal!"

" Well it's too late now, I've heard it all!!"

It grows silent. I want to say something, but I cannot. What is there to say?

" Maybe you can ask me if it's true." He suggests.

" What?!" I ask in slight shock. It sounds as if he is about to admit....

" I am.." He says quietly.

I am so surprised I can hardly even think any longer. Where did he suddenly find the courage to do this?

" In knowing that it is equal." He says.

" Stop that!" I yell, slightly humored, but still irritated.

I sit in wonder at his mood swing. Earlier he was being as rude and cocky as always, and defiant! Now suddenly he changes and almost sounds like he is happy, or in a good mood. What's going on???

" Kakarot.. I finally have learned your feelings for me... If I'd have known earlier.. I wouldn't have been so like.. hostile toward you... I just kind of felt an anger toward you because of how I felt for you, and I didn't think I had any in return."

This is crazy, it can't be true. Is he confessing love for me?!

" Kind of, I guess...... Only if you'll accept it..." His look seems worried now.

As if I wouldn't accept the fact that he loves me! I'd accept it happily!!

" I have had these feelings for you for the longest time.."

I hear his thought in my head.

" Really now?" I ask.

" Yes..."

" So have I..." I say quietly.

" But not like it matters. We're destined a life of slavery and then a long, painful death. So let's forget it."

There he goes. Boom! Another mood swing!!

" That was stupid. I shouldn't have told you. It's pointless. It's not like we can have each other."

" But why not?"

" Because Frieza has already claimed us as his slaves. We'll never have a chance with each other!!" He yells.

" But it's worth a try...." I mumble.

" No. We'll get ourselves in bad trouble if we spend too much time together. Frieza will see too it that we are killed for ever getting 'involved'."

" But I would go through so much trouble just to be with you...." I say quietly as I find myself crawling close to him, feeling a need to touch him again.

But this time, it won't matter. He won't be angry if he has feelings for me, right?

I place my hand on his cheek and his head bolts up in surprise.

" Kakarot?"

I rub his cheek gently and lead my hand to his ear, and then his hair. I move it between my fingers slowly. Then, I withdraw, folding my hand together and bringing it to my chest as if his one word had defeated my want.

" I'm sorry... I got carried away. I just wanted to touch you. You're just so small and delicate somehow. Even when you act tough. And I find myself so attracted to you.. And I find myself caring for you so... It's odd." I slide back slowly.

He doesn't seem to be listening. Was what I did THAT disturbing?

But with that, Vegeta throws himself forward, and presses his lips to mine. His hands rest on my shoulders, and his eyes are closed. His lips linger slightly on mine, searching for my reaction. But my only reaction is shock at first!

But soon, I find myself returning the kiss, and returning his touch. Trailing my fingers gently over his jaw bone, and letting my tongue find his, making the kiss more intense. He leans into it and I wrap an arm around him, pulling his small, fragile body close. When he pulls back from the kiss, and smiles at me, I know that it couldn't get any better. Especially in our position. We're slaves.

" I really do like you Kakarot... I'm not afraid to admit it anymore. I want to be with you..." He says quietly, but I do not answer.

But now that I think about how great he is, I feel an even larger grudge against Frieza for ever attempting what he did. Now that I have him, I am going to keep him, and he is going to be mine, and mine only. I will protect this fragile, little love thing of mine, regardless of what Frieza says or does.
