A/N: Sorry I took so long to get this chapter up, and sorry for the format
on the last one. I hope I figure this format stuff out. BTW, Vegeta is OOC
in this story, Goten too since you know he's never dated anyone and he's not
all macho and over-confident, and also, I started writing this before I'd
seen the whole series, including DBGT, so it's a little off from the
storyline but oh well. That's why it's fanfiction!

Now where were we? Ah, yes.
Trunks and his father exchanged glances as they heard a gasp, followed by a loud thud. They stared down at Goten's form on the kitchen tile and Vegeta burst into a fit of laughter. Goku grinned. "I guess he was surprised to see me." Chapter 2
"Goten... Goten wake up, son." Goku said quietly, gently shaking the unconcious boy. He blinked and stared up at his father, disbeleif written across his features. "Dad? Did I die? Am I dead?" Goten sat up and looked around. Trunks and Vegeta stood next to Goku, who still knelt next to his panicking son.
"No, Goten. You didn't die. My dad wished yours back." Trunks responded, helping Goten to his feet. Goku grinned and pulled Goten into a big bear hug. "Oh, it's good to see you, son. You've gotten so big. Pretty soon you'll have your own children and a beautiful wife. That'll be nice,eh? Eh?" Goten blushed and stared over at Trunks, silently pleading for help.
Trunks bit his lip and replied, "Um, maybe we should leave you two alone. You've got a lot of catching up to do." And with that he dragged Vegeta out of the room. Goten stare, wide-eyed, as Trunks left him with the father that he barely knew. "What's wrong, Goten? I thought you'd be happy to see me..."
Goku sighed and sat down at the kitchen table. "I guess it is kinda weird, huh?" Goten shook his head. "No, well... kinda, but I'm happy to see you. I hope once we get to know each other better that you aren't ashamed of me."
Goku's face took on a serious expression that Goten had only seen before in the midst of battle.
"Son, nothing you could ever do, short of killing for no reason, would ever make me ashamed of you. Your my son and I'll always love you, no matter what." Goten nodded and took a seat next to his father. Out in the hallway Trunks and Vegeta stood, listening. What? You thought they were actually going to leave them alone?
As before they heard a gasp, followed by a loud thud and Goten mumbling, "God-damnit. I knew I shouldn't have told him." Vegeta chuckled and walked off. "That's all I wanted to hear." Trunks shook hishead and peeked in the kitchen, where in fact Goku had passed out cold. "Trunks... I think I should stop telling people I'm gay."
After Goku had regained conciousness and shrugged off the shock he and Goten had a long talk about the rest of the events of his life. Goku shook his head. "Wow, kids lead boring lives now-a-days. So you sat at home while Trunks and everyone else went off on adventures?" Goten nodded.
"Yeah, but I succeeded in the one thing I always dreamed of." Goku looked genuinely interested."Yeah?" Goten smiled and leaned back in his chair. "Mom never once got me to study." Goku facepalmed. Trunks just laughed. "And somehow he's still getting A's."
After a long talk Goku retired to the couch and Goten and Trunks climbed the stairs to his bedroom. "So... does your mom know that my dad's here?" Trunks shrugged. "Probably not. My dad probably wants to hear her freak out when she finds him in the morning." Goten nodded. "That makes... perfect sense." When they reached the room Trunks layed down on his bed and sighed. "So... I guess you wanna finish our talk, huh?" Goten gulped and sat down on the edge of the bed. He avoided looking at the purple haired boy.
"If you want to." Trunks nodded. "Sorry if it sounded like I didn't, it's just that so much has happened today."
"Yeah. Well... where were we?"
"Please don't hate me..." He uttered, barely audible. Finally Trunks spoke. He placed his finger under Goten's chin and lifted his face so their eyes met. "Goten, I could never hate you. No matter how hard I tried it just wouldn't work. I love you too damn much for anything to make me feel any different." Goten choked back a sob and threw his arms around the purple-
haired bishounen.
"Ah, yeah. You said you could never hate me and all that good stuff." Goten couldn't bring himself to repeat Trunk's earlier words of, "I love you." too much" because they brought about too much false hope. Trunks nodded and sat up. "Well what else did you want to talk about, Ten-kun? You like me." Goten blinked. "Well... uh... that is... do you... um..." He stammered.
"Do I feel the same way?" Trunks finished for him. "Yeah... that..." The spiky haired boy mumbled. Trunks put his hand on Goten's leg. "To be honest,
Goten, I don't know. It could happen and I'm willing to give it a try if--" Goten's expression stopped him in his tracks. "What? You expected me to break your heart? I'm not that cold hearted. I mean I'm not my dad. Even if I was the straightest person in the world I could never turn you down, Ten-
kun." Goten nodded, then asked, "So what's the 'if'?"
"You have to ask me out on a date like a normal person." Goten grimaced. He had never asked anyone out except for in junior high school when he asked out this american girl named Erika and she didn't speak japanese so she had no idea what he had said. She just shrugged and nodded. For a week he thought she was his girlfriend before someone in his class who spoke english told everyone in the school about his mistake.
Oh, what a laughing stock he was. Soon after he became the class clown to cover up his insecurities about being laughed at. "O-okay. Well... w-will you... would you like to... umm... go out to the movies-- no, no-- dinner. Trunks, would you like to go out to dinner with me?" Trunks smiled and layed back down. "I'd love to. When?" Goten thought for a moment. "Tomorrow?" Trunks nodded.
Goten smiled and layed down next to the purple haired bishounen.
Vegeta peeked his head in the door the next morning and scoffed. Trunks and Goten were tangled in each others embrace sleeping soundly. "You know... it was almost cute when they were kids but now it's just too damned ironic. Queers." As if the silence ensuing Vegeta's derogatory statement was begging to be broken a scream came from downstairs. Vegeta chuckled and strode downstairs to see the look on the woman's face. "GOKU?!?" Bulma shouted.
"Wh-how-you-when--" and of course then came the faint. Vegeta watched her hit the floor and laughed. "Baka onna." Trunks and Goten dashed down the stairs and groaned. "Aww... we missed it." Goku blinked. "Um... what's going on?"
Vegeta smirked. "You and I are going to train. Boy," He said, adressing Goten, "You can have him tomorrow. I didn't wish him back just to shut you up. I need a challenging adversary as opposed to you weaklings." Trunks just nodded and dragged Goten away, making him trip over his unconscious mother on the floor. "Trunks, where are we going." The purple haired boy shrugged.
"Away from them. I'd rather not know why my father is so happy to see yours but I'm sure it involves massive bloodshed and I'm not in the mood." Goten nodded, just glad to have Trunks hand in his.
