Life Isn't a Fairytale and Home Isn't a Place

Chapter 4: Maybe This Time

I sat in the living room with my mom once the police had gone. Then Trunks and Goten were back.

"I think you should all go out. I think it'd be good for you." My mom said leaving the room.

"Great….everyone thinks I'm a physco….let's go socialize!" I muttered.

"Let's go get food!" Goten exclaimed…..holding a packet of crisps in his hand. I rolled my eyes. The giant food bills were back.

I decided to go and visit my good friend Ellie. She had always been a great friend and she really should get one last hang out before I get either arrested, sent to a looney bin and killed.

I introduced Trunks and Goten to her and we all set off for the park. It was empty so while Ellie was cross examining Trunks to check he was good enough for me Goten and I were sparring. (on the ground obviously so you didn't realize were weren't human) Unfortunately Goten made a slip up. He went super saiyan. Can anyone say idiot!

Ellie's jaw dropped and she ran over to us.

"OK now I need to know why you just changed appearance completely…..especially since you guys are super strong and since my good friend Jesse went off with you guys she's lost quite a few pounds." She demanded waving a fist at Goten.

"Um….we can't tell you." He squeaked. The fist flew at Goten. He just watched it land on his chest. He winced. "Ow that actually hurt…." I grinned….I forgot that before I left Ellie was actually stronger than me.

"There actually not much to tell..." I said scratching my head. "We're not really human." Ellie gaped. I had meant to explain a little better than that...

"And you're what exactly!" she hissed.

"Saiyans." Goten said. Ellie looked at me.

"Like...the boys cartoon you were obsessed with like a couples of years ago?" she asked. She couldn't believe me. No one who did would be so calm.

"Um...sorta." I replied. "And it wasn't a boys cartoon specifically." Trunks and Goten smirked at me.

"Um...I'm sorry you're going to need to fill me in here." She said, staring expectantly at us.

"Look, basically a saiyan is like a human in every way except saiyans have super strength and are usually dark haired and stubborn…." I said. "I'm not that different from a human trust me." Ellie looked at me hinting at something. "Yes sex is the same….well….." I snapped out of my train of thought. "anyway you can't tell." Ellie nodded but was still grinning and shaking her head.

"You did it didn't you?" she said, as we started walking to the street. I blushed slightly. "You did., which one did you fuck?" I shook my head this was all Ellie thought about.

"That'd be me." Trunks said, smirking and totally loving watching me blush at the topic. He leant down to whisper in my ear. "Haven't forgotten what it's like then." I turned bright red and hit him.

"You go girl!" she exclaimed. "He a total babe!" We all laughed and headed back to mine. "But I'll only keep your secret if you tell me everything you've been keeping from me and…..teach me to fight."

"No way in hell!" I said stopping. "I watched people we knew being killed they other night because they got caught up in this battle. I'm not putting you in it."

"I don't want to be in the battle…..just I want to still hang with you…." She said.

"I'll think about it." I said.

I walked downstairs to find Elly sat watching TV with Trunks and Goten. I walked into the room. One look on her face and everything fell apart. She looked so…happy.

Her friend was an alien and facing death and she was just giggling…….oh well.

"Come on then don't just stand there." She said.

"You're not-"

"I'm happy. Shocked but this is the best thing that has ever happened to me. Now we'll talk more later…I like this show." I chuckled and went and sat on Trunks' lap on the couch. Our couch was only a three-seater so I didn't have a choice and Trunks…lets say far from minded.

"Kawashitara." I whispered in his ear. He obeyed and kissed me softly.

"Wasurenai de itsumo…aishiteru…" he murmured.

"Aishiteru." I replied.

"Could you guys make out in English or not at all." Elly said. "I don't understand I word you're saying.

"I can fill you in." Goten said. He whispered in her ear.

"Jesse…you're impossible." Then he told her something else. "Awwww…how sweet…" and then something else. "Awww…lucky cow."

Trunks and I blushed but I also thought deeply. Elly and goten were flirting and Goten had Marron…this would have to stop now, if it continued it could only end in tears.

I leant back against Trunks' chest and waited for the show to end before the chatter began. There was so much to say.

"You think too much." Trunks said and kissed me on the cheek.

"Shut up." I replied and hit him lightly on the shoulder. "Or you don't get any."

Elly went home later in the evening and left me with Trunks and Goten. We sat downstairs and watched some movies, ate some popcorn, chatted and basically kicked back and hung out. Goten had a few too many Vodka reefs and fell asleep on the couch. So when Trunks and I headed to get ready for bed we left him to sleep.

There were nights when the wind was so cold

That my body froze in bed

If I just listened to it

Right outside the window

I went into the bathroom to get changed and came back into my room to find Trunks sat in his boxers reading something. I went and sat next to him.

"What you reading?" I asked.

"A part of your story. Perfectly written as usual." He said.

"Come on now I know that you're lying 'cause they're far from perfect." I said. I leant over and kissed me on the forehead.

"So modest." He tutted. I grinned evilly. "And just what are you thinking young lady?"

"Probably something I shouldn't be." I grinned. He raised one eyebrow.

There were days when the sun was so cruel

That all the tears turned to dust

And I just knew my eyes were

Drying up forever

"Oh really." He enquired. "Care to enlighten me?" I snatched the paper and threw it away before shoving him backwards on the bed and kissing him. I ran my hand temptingly downwards before grinning up at him.

"But maybe I should take things slow if you need to be enlightening first." I said teasing.

"I'm enlightened." He said quickly, grabbing my chin and kissing me.

I finished crying in the instant that you left

And I can't remember where or when or how

And I banished every memory you and I had ever made

"We should keep it down. Parents…brothers…Goten." I said.

"You're the one that makes the noise." He murmured. I broke away from his lips and trailed them down his bare chest and back over his neck. He obviously didn't like being tortured at that minute because the next thing I knew he was sat up and kissing me deeply. He moved down my neck to my collar bone and I gasped as his teeth sank into my flesh, reopening my scar…the mark of Trunks' and my love. He sucked at it gently before moving down my chest while sliding down the straps of my nightgown.

But when you touch me like this

And you hold me like that

I just have to admit

That it's all coming back to me

When I touch you like this

And I hold you like that

It's so hard to believe but

It's all coming back to me

It's all coming back, it's all coming back to me now

I ran my fingers across his chest and stopped his kisses when I bite into his skin. I felt my nightgown fall to my waist as we moved into a heated kiss.

Lemon

My night gown slid down and off as we moved backwards on the bed. I moved my hands down to his boxers and pulled them down. He did the same for my underwear and soon we fell into a full on passionate kiss. Hands grasping bedclothes and limbs until we couldn't wait any longer and I felt him slide inside of me.

There were moments of gold

And there were flashes of light

There were things I'd never do again

But then they'd always seemed right

There were nights of endless pleasure

It was more than any laws allow

Baby Baby

I welcome every part of him in that minute. I met his eyes and found tears rolling down my cheeks, not from pain and Trunks could see that, but from the fact that after so many nights of dreaming Trunks was here…in my arms, real…with me and I felt like I belonged. For so long my home had felt strange to me but now that he was here…I belonged.

If I kiss you like this

And if you whisper like that

It was lost long ago

But it's all coming back to me

If you want me like this

And if you need me like that

It was dead long ago

But it's all coming back to me

It's so hard to resist

And it's all coming back to me

I can barely recall

But it's all coming back to me now

But it's all coming back

He kissed my tears away. We met in a desperate kiss. My screams were muffled by his lips as we both collapsed on my bed. He moved beside me.

Lemon Over

There were those empty threats and hollow lies

And whenever you tried to hurt me

I just hurt you even worse

And so much deeper

I guess after so long apart it took all our strength just being together. I moved and threw my arms tightly around him.

"I'm never leaving you again." I whispered, settling down to sleep, I heard him whispering to me as I drifted into sleep.

"Please come home Jesse. Don't make me leave you…and neither of us is going to die…we have to stay together."

There were hours that just went on for days

When alone at last we'd count up all the chances

That were lost to us forever

Jesse's Mother's POV

I walked through the house to wake the boys and then headed to wake up Jesse and our visitors. The boys ignored my first wake up call as usual so I moved to Jesse's room. I opened the door to find her and her lavender haired knight in shining armour half covered with the sheets and evidently naked curled up on her bed. I felt a smile tug at my lips even though I doubt my husband would find it so sweet. I went and undrew the curtains before walking back out and into the bathroom for a shower.

But you were history with the slamming of the door

And I made myself so strong again somehow

And I never wasted any of my time on you since then

They had been curled up so close. She had been smiling which made I change…mind you who wouldn't be smiled with a boyfriend who had a chest like that? Maybe I should go back and pull the covers over them…I doubt Jesse will want Daniel and Joseph coming in and seeing her bare chest… Well, too late now really.

I hope she used protection. Oh well I'll leave her to make her own choices…but I'd like to have a mother daughter chat before she leaves, probably forever.

But if I touch you like this

And if you kiss me like that

It was so long ago

But it's all coming back to me

If you touch me like this

And if I kiss you like that

It was gone with the wind

But it's all coming back to me

It's all coming back, it's all coming back to me now

I felt the covers move over me and opened my eyes. Trunks was awake and had pulled the covers over me which I was glad of. I looked around the room to see the door open and the curtains undrawn. Mom! My mother must have already come in! Oh shit what would she say! What would dad say! Oh well…not illegal. Anymore.

There were moments of gold

And there were flashes of light

There were things we'd never do again

But then they'd always seemed right

There were nights of endless pleasure

It was more than all your laws allow

Baby, Baby, Baby

We got up and dressed and headed downstairs. Goten was already throwing up in the sink…charming.

He had a habit of getting drunk and falling asleep.
