Gogeta was sitting at home watching is little brother playing video games with his best friend, Hakkai. Hakkai was smiling at Vegito. " Damn it! Why do you gotta be so good at this?" Vegito said as he pressed some buttons on the controller.
" I'm getting because I'm older and I have more experience."
" It's not fair."
" Nothing in life is fair my friend."
Miranda comes in the room. " Hey boys."
" Hi sis."
" Hello Miranda." Hakkai said nicely.
" How are you doing Hakkai?"
" I'm beating your brother's tail."
Miranda laughed back at Hakkai. " No silly I mean how are you feeling?"
" I feel much better then I did." Hakkai looked away from the television for a few seconds. Suddenly their was a crashing sound. Hakkai looked back at the screen. " Damn it!"
Vegito smiled. " Haha! You should have watched where you were driving Hakkai! It looks like I win." Vegito led up the victory sign.
" Alright fine, you got me that time!"
Trunks and Goten came into the living room as well. " Well Vegito whatcha doing?" Goten asked.
" Playing a racing game. Wanna play, papa-san?"
" Are you kidding! I haven't played on of these games in ages… but I'll still beat your tail into the dirt."
" Oh yeah! We'll see about that." Vegito shouted back.
" Goten, you better not be forgetting about me." Trunks said.
" Oops sorry father-san." Vegito said.
" Don't sweet it kiddo." Trunks pugs his controller in and he sits down next to Goten and Vegito. " Your finished Goten! And your ruin ends here Vegito." Trunks said.
" We'll see about that father-san!"
Hakkai got up and walked into the kitchen. Gogeta was cleaning up the dishes. He turned his attention to a picture laying next to the coffee. It was a picture of Gorno and himself when they were younger. They were both so happy. Gogeta was crying. Hakkai walked over and put his hand on his shoulder. " Its alright Gogeta…"
" No its not alright Hakkai!"
" What's wrong now?"
" I feel so bad that Gorno had to go through all that and I didn't know anything about it. I mean he really was a nice friend… We had so much fun together when we were kids… and then that terrible day when things changed. But that's not what really gets to me… I just don't know if Gorno will get better."
" I'm sure he will Gogeta. Gorno is a strong boy."
" I hope your right. Listen, I was planning to go to the asylum tonight and well I was wondering if you would company me."
" Well I'd be glad to. I wanna see how he's doing there."
" Thanks a lot Hakkai… I really appreciate this."
" Hey, I'm glad to do it. It's what friends do right?"
" Right."
The asylum….
Gogeta and Hakkai walked into the asylum. The secretary looked up from her desk to see both boys looking at her. " Oh good afternoon gentlemen. What can I do for you?"
" We are here to see Gorno." Gogeta said.
" Can you tell us where we could find him?" Hakkai said.
" Gorno has been expecting you boys."
' I should have guessed he would have. We are best friends after all.' Gogeta though.
" Follow me please." The woman said. She got out from behind her desk and they walked down a long hall. " You don't have any sharp objects with you by any chance?" she asked the boys.
" Nope. I know better then to do that." Hakkai said.
" Yeah same here." Gogeta said.
" That's good. Well I'll leave you boys alone, if you need anything, hollar." The woman said as she opened the door.
Gogeta and Hakkai walked in the white padded room. Gorno was sitting down. He looked up at the boys. " Well what a surprise. Hello guys." He said cheerfully.
" Hello Gorno. How are you doing?"
" I haven't been better!"
Gogeta smiled at his best friend. " That's great to hear."
" So when are they letting you out of here?" Hakkai asked. He was still a bit nervous around Gorno. No one can really blame him though.
Gorno smiled. " No reason to be afraid of me Hakkai… but to answer your question… I'll be out within a week. They wanna check up on me to make sure I'm back to normal."
" That's good." Gogeta said.
" Gogeta, how are things going with you?" Gorno asked.
" Things are going well. Vegito and I have gotten together at last. He's healed me. I have never been better."
" And you Hakkai?"
Hakkai growled at Gorno. " Why the hell would you care?"
" I was just wondering. I'm not the same man who did those terrible things to you. If you do wanna tell me that's fine."
" Well, uh…." Hakkai was blushing slightly.
" What's going on Hakkai?" Gogeta asked.
" Well I am uh… involved with Ryo."
Gogeta smiles. " That's great!"
" I know it is. Ryo is one fisty little kid though. My gosh, he gives me a run for my money."
" Well I guess I'm the only one who doesn't have anyone." Gorno said.
" Ah I'm sure you'll find someone."
" Maybe in time." Gorno said.
" Well my sister is looking for a boyfriend."
" Woah wait a minute! Your sister is straight!" Gorno shouted.
" Yeah odd isn't it. She's surrounded by gays guys and she's the only straight one."
" Well maybe I'll go for her…" Gorno said.
Hakkai looks at Gogeta. " Woah! What the heck is going on… I thought that…"
" You thought I was really gay didn't you." Gorno said.
" That's right… so your not?"
" That's right."
" Could have fooled me." Gogeta whispered.
" I heard that." Gorno said.
" So you wanna go out with my sister?" Gogeta said, raising an eyebrow.
" Yes, what is there a problem with that? If there is I won't…"
Gogeta smiled. " No that's fine… as long as you don' abuse her, I really don't care."
" You're a great friend you know that!"
" What are friends for? I'm glad your doing better, and I can't wait to see you walking about again. I miss running into you every day after school."
" Well Gogeta, after this week… I'll be the same friend I once was. I promise!"
" I'll hold you to that. Well for now I gotta get going… you take care of yourself you hear me Gorno."
" You know I will.." Turns to Hakkai. " Good luck with Ryo man."
" Thanks. And I wish you well."
The boys leave the asylum with their thoughts held high for the future. Hakkai went back to his home and Gogeta walked into his parents house.
" I'm home!" Gogeta called.
Miranda and Vegito came up to him and made him fall on the floor. " Oops sorry bro… you alright?" Miranda asked.
" Geez you two guys are really powerful…"
" I try to be like you Oniisan." Vegito said.
" Well I haven't heard that in a while."
" Welcome back son." Goten said.
" Hello Papa-san. Where's father-san?"
" He had to work late."
" Oh I see." Gogeta said in a depressed tone.
" What's the matter Gogeta?"
" Oh nothing… I just wanted to tell him the good news."
" Well I'm sure you can tell us both in the morning… whenever Trunks gets in."
" Yeah." Gogeta puts his coat down. " Got any ice cream?"
" You know we do. Can never have too little in the seller."
" Thanks Papa-san." Gogeta walks into the seller and pulls out some ice cream. " I so needed it today… I feel crappy."
" Can I have some?" Miranda asked.
" What about me!" Vegito said.
Gogeta waited for a third voice but it never came. " Uh Where's Damien?"
" He's with his folks. He wanted to visit them."
" Do you guys like doing things while I'm away… anything else happen that I don't know about, like Miranda get her self pierced?"
laughs " That's funny Oniisan!" Miranda said.
The Son's all site down and have some ice cream and have a wonderful dinner without Trunks and Damien at the table.
To be continued…
