Title: Falling

Diamond: Time to reply!

Moreta Lynx: Hey now. Put down the spork. I didn't like to hurt him either, but it's kind of the point. Don't worry, good endings should come.

Okay that's all I think so….enjoy!

Goten sighed as Goku waited on the phone. The minute they got home he said he was calling the doctor. Funny though, he was morbidly afraid of any kind of doctor. I guess that didn't matter right now though. If only he knew Goten was as freaked out at doctors as much as himself, and that he's really scaring him and not helping him. But I guess that didn't matter either.

"Hello, this is Dr. Matthews. Can I help you?" The man on the other line said, in one of the most boring tones. He obviously didn't want to be at the office.

"Uh, yea. My name is Son Goku and I just wanted to make an appointment for my son."

"Alright is this for a regular checkup or for something more specific?"

"We have a little problem. I know there has to be a name for it but I don't know it."

"Is it serious?"

"If it goes on I think it could be."

"Well bring him down today around one and I'll have a look at him."

"Alright. Thank you."

Goku put the phone down and turned to face Goten.

"Why have you been doing this?"

Goten looked up at him. His face was serious as was his tone of voice. If he said one wrong thing it looked like Goku might explode.

"I don't know."

"Yes you do. Now tell me."

Tears gathered in his eyes but he wouldn't let them fall.

"Goten. I'm trying to help you now tell me!" Goku gripped both of his shoulders.

He couldn't tell him what made him do this.

(Flashback)

Goten was over at Trunks' house training with him and Vegeta. Vegeta let him and Trunks team up against him but they weren't doing so well.

"Come on Trunks! We have to win, your dad's going to beat us!"

"I know that! I'm just a little hungry is all." His stomach growled to accent his words.

"No your not!" Vegeta yelled.

"Now come on and fight! I'm getting bored over here!"

Goten looked over at his friend.

"Trunks if your hungry just go get something."

"I can't Goten, my dad told me not to. He says if you eat to much you'll get fat."

"But when I got here you hadn't had any breakfast yet so you didn't have anything all morning right?"

"Yes but dad says that you should only eat once at lunch and again at midnight exactly. He says it works for him but I just have to get used to it. Besides, he says fighters shouldn't eat so much because it's bad etiquette. You know, not polite."

"Oh." 'Not polite? But my dad eats a lot, and so do I.'

(End Flashback)

"Are you listening? I need you to tell me."

"I can't say."

"Alright you don't have to tell me but we're leaving for the doctor in an hour and you have to tell him. Promise me you'll tell him?"

"Promise."

"Good. Go ahead and do whatever until then. I'll call you when it's time to go."

Diamond: Terrable place to leave it huh? It was going to be longer but I only got a few reviews so far. If you want it longer you must review, don't read and run! Just hit the purple button and all will be right with the world.
