Goten slipped his hand underneath the mattress of his small single bed and recovered a small brown leather journal. He crossed his room to his desk and shoved his paperwork aside and placed the journal down and took his favourite black pen out of his pencil case and began to write:

19th June

Dear Diary,

It's been awhile since I have written to you. It is amazing how things change. I really need to get some things off my chest. I miss Trunks, I really do. It's been nearly two months since I saw him last. I guess it's for the best. I had to get away. I decided to up and leave home, I couldn't stay. I guess I should tell you why I left. Things were great between Trunks and I. Then we from best friends to lovers. It just happened, one night we went to three parties and drank more than we should of and next thing we know we were back at his place, making love. He never told me he was in love with me; it wasn't until the next day he told me. The truth is I have fallen in love with him too.

It wasn't long after that night, I dumped Paris without a reason. I switched my cell phone off, my various choices in girls was a thing of the past. I was spending all my spare time with Trunks, whether he was working, being at home, sparring.

My Mom began to take an interest in my life (more like interfering) asking what had happened to Paris and when I was going to find a new girlfriend then she asked me to stop hanging round Trunks so much. Naturally every time the subject came up I was too "busy" to answer.

Then it struck, in the mornings I would have my usual coffee, and breakfast and about 10 minutes later I was in the bathroom, throwing up. I pretended I was having a shower to muffle out the sound I was making. Then I would be fine. I guess at least it only lasted a week. It was then I started to suspect it, even Trunk's started to pick up on things, I don't know if it was instinct but he felt the need to be near me constantly, very protective. It wasn't to long after that, I decided to get away.

I sit here in this apartment that I share it with three other people often, while doing my homework and wonder what it would be like, if I had ran back to his place into hiss arms. He has always been there for me, his never ending strength and reassurance and pulling me into those safe arms of his, it hurts so much to be away be away from him.

I am in a new city and I enrolled at a new college. I found work part time as a waiter for an expensive restaurant. It has been keeping me very busy. Trunks has been trying to find me, I guess its only natural. I have hidden myself constantly and he knows why. I told Gohan the truth a couple of days ago, that I am pregnant with Trunks's child. Even I didn't want to believe at first, but this child's small ki is growing inside of me. I showed Gohan the orange glow that came up on my stomach as my hand went over it, he was startled when he felt the little one's power, and he almost fainted. He spent the next two hours firing questions at me and he was so confused with the idea of how I could get pregnant and how I could have the baby. I felt relief. It was like a weight off my shoulders telling Gohan, he sat there hugging me while I cried over everything. I want to tell Trunks, he knows I am pregnant already, he can sense there is a baby there. I know he hasn't contacted Gohan in fear of unwanted questions because we were so close before.

I can't go back. There is so much to consider. I would have to tell my parents for one, not only about the baby but my relationship with Trunks, I know how my Mom will react. Then there is Trunk's father Vegeta, he will be mad I am sure of it. I guess one thing he wouldn't do is he wouldn't try to hurt his grandchild and he must know about saiyan male pregnancies. The third is, I am actually scared of being a parent. Gohan wanted me to come back and tell everyone the truth and so I can give this baby a better life than trying it solo. Bulma could help with the birth plan and especially since she has the power to have no questions asked, she has been studying Saiyans a long time and so nothing is abnormal to her and she has been pressuring Trunks into settling down and starting a family. I guess I am wondering what Trunks thinks of all this, I mean would he want to be a father? Does he love me enough to care for a baby too?

Goten put his pen down and reread the last two questions on that line, he yawned and closed his journal and smoothed over the cover, then proceeded to put his journal back under the mattress and get ready for bed.

TBC.
