Chapter 6
"Goten, you ok? You look like your really tired." Bra mentioned as I walked into the kitchen to get a drink. She's up late working on some work for the office or something.
"Yea…no, I can't sleep." I sat down with a cup of cold water.
"Did Trunks and you get into it last month or something?" Month? What is she talking about?
"What do you mean?" She propped her head up with her hand letting strands of hair slide slowly around her shoulders.
"I just haven't seen you guys really get together. He's always like working and your always pulled into yourself when he's here." I shrug a bit and sip at the cup, feeling the cool liquid run down my hot throat.
"I'm not sure. It was going really good until the end of the month when we…" I stopped, unsure if I should tell her or not.
"We what?"
"Nothing, just goofed around a little." I washed it up.
"Oh I see, now I understand why." She smiled, "It will calm down, Trunks gets like that way when ever things like that pop up suddenly.
"I hope so." My chest starts to burn. I lay my head down and try to breath a bit more to cool it down a little. It feels like heart burn.
"Goten?" I moan a little, and close my eyes.
"My chest hurts really bad all of the sudden." I feel like I don't have enough air. I start to breath heavy. Trying to catch my breath.
"You want me to get my mom?" I shake my head no and get up from the table.
"I'm going to go lay down again." I start to gasp, I can't catch my breath! What is going on with me? I fall to the floor and feel the cold tile hit my flesh. The pain, it feels like my chest is being ripped out!
"Goten!"
blackout
Bra POV
My God I could never ever think that Goten would have this type of problem. The doctors are running all sorts of medication and tests through him. They say he had a stroke of some sort. He's flat out cold since yesterday night. Trunks showed up right when Goten fell to the floor. That was the last time Trunks said any thing. He's sleeping at the moment, I let him lay his head on my lap.
We're in the waiting room at the moment because Goten needed to be left alone. I feel so sorry for what Trunks did to Goten. The doctors wonder why his belly is pouched out so far. Of course I know why. They didn't just 'goof off'. Trunks and him went all the way, either with or with out protection. So looks like Trunks has a baby to go with this.
"Poor Trunks, I hope you know that." I wiped his face with a wet wash cloth. He had been crying ever since Goten hit that floor. I'm glad he finally collapsed to rest.
"Bra, how long has he been out?" My mom walks in, she looks happy.
"About two hours now." I play with his hair a little while he lays there.
"We can go see Goten now." I wipe the side of Trunks' face and said his name softly to wake him. He was so out of it.
"Mr. Ass, come on. Goten wants to see you."
"Be nice Bra, he's tired." He opened his eyes and got up silently. Just like him, tears just began to fall from his eyes.
"Trunks honey follow me." My mom and him walk out of the room. I'd like to see him but, I know they need their time together.
"Goten, be ok for Trunks."
Trunks POV
Stuck in guilt and fear, lost with out you baby. You can't leave me alone in this world like this. You have to be ok. It's all my fault that he's like this! My God, now I know why it is such a sin to love another man. I love him so much it consumes me. It weakens my body every time he touches me. I love him so much. It is all worth loving him!
"Trunks this way, stop running, it not like he's going any where soon." My mother pulled on my sleeve of my shirt. I slowed seeing so many doors and people around in the hall ways. "Trunks don't freak out when you see him." I nod a little and walk into a darkened room. She shuts the door behind me. Why is she not coming with me?
I see the bed with many monitors beeping and making odd noises. I look and see him covered in wires and tubes. I choke out his name. I know crying is something I usually never do. I've done more today than I've ever done in my life. I see him move slightly moving his body under the blanket.
"Hey baby…" I see him lift up his head.
"Goten, I'm so sorry that I've been ignoring you so much. This is all my fault, I've made this happen."
"Shhh, Trunks. I'm fine now. Come on over here baby." I go over obediently and sit into the chair and lay my head down into the bed. I feel his hand touch my head and move down to the back lovingly.
"They said they don't know what caused my stroke." He managed to kiss my forehead. I wanted to just bawl my heart out. How is he so damn sweet to me?
"But it's all over now. Now that your by my side." I leaned up and locked my lips with his gently.
"I've really missed you kissing me like that." My tears began to fall on his face.
"Aw baby don't cry now, I'm ok. Every thing will be ok." I have to tell him what I've been doing in the past month to him. But it's so hard, I want to wait until he's out of the hospital. I start to really bawl into his chest.
"Goten I'm so sorry! I'm a big fucking liar! I need to be castrated and beaten. I have to tell you why it took me so damn long to get home. I want you to never forgive my ass!" I pulled away and slid to the floor on my knees.
"Trunks calm down, we'll work it out." I shake my head and lean against the frame of the bed.
"Goten I can't believe you could help this. Or work it out." He sits up and shakes his head.
"Trunks anything can be worked out, not matter what the hell it is. I want you to know I'm not giving you up now." I swallowed and got back up on the chair.
"Goten, you remember Joey at the office?" Tears fell from my cheeks like a stream.
"Baby, I know this going to break your heart." His expression changed to a worried look.
"A few weeks back I had to go and stay a bit longer at work because we were meeting with some representatives of Cyber Corps. I degraded Joey into simple work in a office cube nearly forty rooms away before once that incident happened. Some of my most important documents and files were gone my new secretary had shown me this on short notice." I paused and swallowed, "So I made my way into Joeys cubical and asked if he might have had them. He defiantly was wanting more trouble from me. He denied and said he might know where they were."
"Why would this break my heart Trunks?" I put my hand over his and shook my head no.
"Let me finish baby." He nodded and I closed my eyes to think about just how it happened.
"Would you just cut to the chase so I won't be so damn worried?" I jumped and looked at him. He looked quite pissed.
"Fine, but please try not to slap me ok?"
"Sure, Trunks."
"I think I cheated on you."
"What? You think! What kind of excuse is that?" He sat up in the bed.
"It wasn't all my fault at least what I could remember."
"Your, lying. Who the hell did you have sex with?"
"Joey, I think." He was pissed I knew it. And He looked so damn hurt. I just want to go and crawl under a rock now please.
"Trunks I can't believe you'd go and do some thing like that!" He lifted up his hand. I shut my eyes tight and waited for the sharp pain to my face.
"Trunks…" But it didn't come. I received a soft touch on the side of my face. I opened my eyes. Seeing his tears fall. I'm broken now to hell.
"Baby please let me explain myself a little." He nodded, and I continued. "Joey had given me a folder and told me that those were the files I needed. I opened them and nodded after on hell of another fight with him. I managed to keep my sanity and made my way into the bathroom. I opened the folder to really check if they were all there. This type of dust hit me in the face as I moved the papers. I wasn't sure at the time what the hell it was. But know I know." I was talking my head off trying to make him stop crying. I kissed his palm lightly as it was laying so limply on the bed.
"I was some type of drug and it ruined my whole night, I didn't come home that night. Joey had followed me into the bathroom. I couldn't control my speech all of the sudden and he pushed me onto the counter and…well that's where it all happened." He looked at me and tried to get up from the bed.
"Goten, what are you doing! You have to stay in bed."
"I don't want to be near you right now. Please leave." I get up from the chair and head for the door after making sure he was safely back into the bed.
"Trunks…" I stopped and turned to him.
"I think we need to break off for a bit, this love thing is tearing me apart." Ice flowed over me with those words. Was he breaking it off with me?
"Ok, do what ever makes you happy." I ate it and left the room, wanting to bawl once more.
I kick and swung through the air, running as fast as I could to relieve myself of the rage I had inside my heart. Goten was no longer with me. When he had came home. The doctors had him put on many medications and they also found out he was pregnant. Which on my part was also rough. My mother was stunned and my father just shrugged knowing it all along. The news thinking I was a freak of nature and Goten an alien from outer space.
It's been over another month of hell for me and my love life. This is why I never wanted another relationship. There is just to much damn drama in my life to deal with! My body twisted through the deep thick clouds as the sun began to warm my tan skin.
"Life is so fucking unfair to me."
Joey was fired and put in jail quite quickly. It was proven that he had put drugs into me to control my body in ways he wanted. He's going to be in there for quite some time now.
"I'm so fucked up."
Goten didn't talk to me very much any more. He was mostly sitting up in his new room with his computer. Totally ignoring me or any other person in the house. My mom made me resign from being Capsule Corps. President. It was the talk on the fucking town. Mr. Trunks Brief intoxicated and rapped by an MALE employee! World stunned. Mr. Brief has quit in the golden seat! Is the great million dollar man gay!
I didn't care any longer about my life. This world is hell to put up with. How come we always manage to save this planet to such idiots then face fucking insecure nasty things called humans! They don't appreciate us at all for what we have done for them. They all are so damn nosey about my personal life!
"Boy are you just going to fly around or are you going to fight me!" My father yells into my ear. I turn and try to hit him. I knew I wouldn't hit him. I never do at this damn angle.
"Fuck it all!" I fly straight forward towards my father. I want him to hit me. I want to see blood fly. I want to feel that pain I deserve.
"Boy what the hell are you doing!" I fly into every blast he throws, every kick I never avoid. Come on knock me out, I'm tired of thinking about this this shit!
"Boy!" CRACK SLAM
"Trunks!" I ignored my name being called.
"ARAHHHHHH!" I fly straight out off the battle field. I slam a good hit on his face, taking my anger out on him. I watch him fly into a forest of trees. I never got that good of a hit on him like that. I'm so pissed.
"That's it boy! No cheap shots!" His hands began to fly into my helpless body.
"Take that ass hole!" Crack! I flew down in to the ground only to get back up again.
"Trunks!" I turn around in annoyance and see my mother. What does she want of me now?
"What?"
"I need your butt inside. Goten is not well." I land into the grass covered in blood and bruises.
"Can't you see I'm kind of occupied with something?"
"Oh, I see this is more important than him now is it?" She puts her hand on her hips. "You mean to tell me that baby that Goten has is not yours?" I look at her like fire.
"Mom, I know it's mine. But we are not together any more."
"So that's it, your not caring at all for him or that unborn baby?" My father was watching me.
"No, that's not it."
"Then get inside and help Goten with his pain."
"But mom…I'm training."
"No buts, inside." She points and of course I go inside. "Go get washed up before you ever plan to be near him.
"See you later father, got to go care for Goten." I walked into the back door with my mother following me into the kitchen. I wash my face and arms from the blood and wrapped my arm up that was cut badly. Walking into the living room to hear bloody cries coming from the stair well. It was obvious who it was.
"What the hell is wrong with him?"
"He's in pain you ass, get up there to comfort him. There is nothing I can do help him. Only you can do that."
I sighed and made my way up into his room. His cries continued to go on. He sounded like he was dieing.
"Goten?" My stomach began to hurt with the sound of the dry cries that emitted from his mouth. His body was atop the blankets of his large bed of his. He was on his side gasping for air. I leaned down to get on the bed carefully. He looks up at me and turns over.
"Go away you ass hole." He pants out. I just wanted to get up and leave. My father was right about one thing. A sayjin never leaves it's mates side. A part inside me wanted to stay by his side. That part wanting to keep him safe and warm inside my arms. Holding him until the pain and bed memories faded away. Kiss him so deeply and unforgettably romantic. On the other part of me, I want to forget who or what he is and go back to my old life before he ever came into my life. I had it all. Girls, money, fame, fortune. Why did I ever decide to leave all of that plus my faith behind?
"Goten, my mom wanted me to help you with your pain." I place my hand on his shaking shoulder.
"Your making it worse." He coughs, "Go away and leave me alone, don't you think you've done enough damage to me already?" He heaves and shoves his head down into the pillow.
"I want to try to make it better. Goten please, I hate seeing you suffer like this." He lifts his head and turns it to me.
"What the hell are you going to do about this? Rip the baby out of my stomach?" I shake my head and crawl my way over near. Waiting for him to move on his back.
"I know this is something you don't want me to do. But this will stop the pain."
"Trunks cut this shit out." I put my hand under his shirt, touching his protruding stomach.
"Shush Goten." I laid my head down on his shoulder. I open my fingers to where my palm was spread out like I was going to shoot a Ki blast. Goten was so tense.
"Trunks what are you going to do to me?"
"Calm the baby down." I took a deep breath and pushed out the right amount of Ki to my hand. Warming his skin beneath it. I could feel his stomach churn and pop. He was pretty large for the time he's been pregnant. Only two and half months and he looked like he was nearly five months.
"Does that feel better? At least helping some?" His body was relaxed and calm now after ten minutes of doing this.
"Yes, very much so." His voice sounded so relieved.
"Good, you think You can do good on your own now?"
"Do you have to leave so soon Tru-Chan?"
"I have to get back to training." I get up and head to the door to leave.
"Will you come back up later on?" I nodded and walked into the hall way to head back to what I was doing.
"Trunks where are you going?" My mother stopped me in my tracks.
"Back outside to finish my training." I opened the door only to have it shut in my face.
"You are staying inside for the rest of the day."
"Mom, I'm finishing this and I'll stay in for the rest of the damn week!" I slammed it open again.
"Trunks!" I flew into the sky turning super. She never understand why I need to do this. I've helped Goten as much as I can stand.
"Back already boy?"
"Yea!" I flew right in front of him and we started a quick warm up.
Goten POV
I heard Trunks screaming outside my window. He must be arguing with his mom still. I got up holding on to my stomach and mad my way to it to look out. The floor started to shake. What the hell is going on out there? I look out the glass pane. Trunks was shooting his father with a huge golden ki blast! What are they fighting for? Oh yea, they are training. So it sort of like a fake fight.
Trunks is so amazing when he fights. He's so graceful. Every move is so quick and flowing to every hit his father tries to give him.
"Sweetie, don't watch that. It's just a bunch of bull shit that has no point." Bulma walks in next to me. I continue to watch Trunks. Punch after kick, I see blood fly every where.
"What or why are they doing this again? I mean I understand for that one reason but why so violent?"
"It's their nature to fight like that. Trunks and him both love the feel pain I guess."
"Well how come I'm not like that?" I let my hands slide down to my sides.
"My guess is because you weren't raised on it." I shook my head.
"I was trained by my brother when I was young. I know martial arts, it's just I can't do it any longer. I let it slide off me as I grew older. I've never been able to fly like that, I'd love to know how though."
"I see, well Trunks should teach you. But you shouldn't be to active with that baby." I shake my head and turn away from the window.
"I have a funny feeling I'm not going to survive this baby. Trunks knows it too."
"Goten you shouldn't say things like that."
"I'm being serious. Vegeta wasn't playing when he told us about who should be the birthing sayjin when we get OLDER."
"Well don't let him scare you like that. I've proved him wrong many times."
"I can understand that but Trunks doesn't see that nor does Vegeta."
I fell to the floor with the shock wave that hit the house.
"Goten!" Bulma freaked out as soon as my bottom fell to the floor. I looked around to see there was a hole in the wall now.
"What in the world was that?" I see a pile of rubble glowing slightly in the door way of my newly destroyed room.
"Damn it Bra, look what you did!" I hear Trunks' muffled voice and he pops his head up from the pile.
"Whops sorry mom, I guess I hit him to hard."
"Where is your father young lady?"
"He's over here laughing his ass off." She looks in to see me on the floor with a frightened expression.
"Oh Goten did you get hit with something?" She lands next to me.
"No I fell." I notice Trunks giving an evil eye and she backs away from me.
"You ok?" He grabs my hands and lifts me up.
"I'm not dead yet right?" He laughs a little and looks at the hole in the wall.
"Today is just gone so strangely."
"Tell me something Trunks just out of curiosity; why in the world did you two break up any ways?" Bra said blankly. I want to smack her.
"How the hell did this question come up?" Trunks said defensively dropping my hands.
"Well it's just you guys are avoiding anything to do with each other."
"Ask him, I'm not the one who broke us up."
"What? You're the one who decided not to fire your gay assed secretary! It's all your fault!" I screamed out.
"Oh so it's my fault for not firing him huh?" He walks to the door way, "Well I guess it's my fault your pregnant too right?" He hops over the pile and leaves.
"Ass wipe!" I cross my arms and sit down on my rubble covered bed.
"Man, you guys are really broke up. I've never seen you guys so ticked at each other before." Why in the hell is it any of her business?
"Why did you have to open your mouth, huh?"
"Well I was just wondering, you guys keep an doing the strangest thing ever! It's almost like your married!" Bulma left the room. Most likely to call some one to fix the wall.
"Well we're not even close to doing something like that."
"Awe come on you guys need to get back together for that baby."
"Bra just go away. Me and Trunks will not be back together any time soon."
Trunks and me started to butt heads more often ever since that day. He and I never liked to be in the same room alone. There were many days that I was alone in my room on my computer late at night. Sometimes I'd take my head phones off and hear crying. I'd go to his door and it always stopped before I got comfortable. He never tried to help me with my pain again either. He was always gone somewhere. I never saw him on a normal basis. Every time we sat down for some type of family get together he was never there.
Here we are again sitting down for dinner and he's not present. I felt so depressed now a days. My confidence was torn apart. My stomach was huge. I was so scared now, for the baby and my life. It was so hard to get up and out of bed, and I couldn't get out of the house. To me nothing could get worse than this humiliation.
"So Goten, how's your studies doing?" Bulma asks me, while I eat like a bird from my plate.
"It's going pretty good, I'm almost caught up to my grade now." She smiles and looks away from me.
"Brat, you need to get back together." I spit my food out, how could Vegeta say that!
"What?"
"You heard me, you bastard." I pushed my plate away from me and began to get up to leave the table.
"Sit back down boy." I noticed Bulma was getting upset.
"Why so you can tell me I'm the fault for our break up?" I said lowly trying to keep quite incase Trunks so happened to walk in.
"You both need to grow up from this level."
"What you think it's that fuckin easy to make up!" Bulma gets up and leaves the room with Bra.
"No, I know how fuckin hard it is." I shift my weight to the wall and lean.
"So what the hell do you want me to do about this. I'd like us to be able to get back together. Even though I'm the one who said I wanted to break up."
"I need you and ass wipe to calm this down for now. You and that baby could be killed with all of this stress."
"What else is new." I sat back down at the table to start listening to him.
"I've talked to Trunks this morning, and he's going to go with you tonight down to the lab."
"What for?"
"I'm going to look you over, and I need him to be with you."
"But I feel fine." I took a bite of food off my pushed away plate.
"You may seem that way, but that is a terrible sign."
"Of what?"
"You'll see later on tonight. Now finish up your plate and get a shower."
"Sure, sorry about my out burst." I said shyly and he nod and begins to eat his own plate of thirds.
I was all warm and cozy in my room listening to music and typing a report for English to give to my tutor teacher for next week.
"Goten, we need to go to the lab now." I hear Trunks' voice and I get up from my bed. Placing my computer at the top of my head board, with the music turned off.
"Coming, be right there." I pulled on some lose pajama pants and one of Trunks' hoodies I'd stolen from him a few months back. I didn't want to walk down in just my underwear and a tee-shirt. Being five and half months pregnant, it's really hard to find clothes that will fit you right.
"Can I come on Goten?"
"Sure, just watch my books near the door way." I shove some paper into my folder not bothering to turn around.
"Well you surly organized this room just how you like it." I turn to him and fall over.
"Goten, be careful!" He pulls me back up instantly.
"You whacked it off!" I pointed at his head.
"What, I wanted to look different."
"You look like someone else totally! You got your eyebrow pierced?" I walk around him. His hair was spiked and highlighted with a little blonde.
"Well we need to get going down to the lab." I totally forgot about that for a second.
"Fine, but why the hell did you have to cut off your hair? It's all sticky and hard now." He gives me a death stare.
"Ok, it doesn't look bad, it just I like soft hair!" I grab his sleeve as he walks out of the door into the hall way.
"What did Bulma do when she saw you?"
"Nothing, just told me to get you."
"Oh" My mind froze, I couldn't think of anything to say. It was blank as night.
"You know what's going to happen today?" I shook my head as he opened the door for me.
"Goten, please sit up on the bench there." Bulma instructed me and I tried to get up.
"Trunks, could you help me, please?" I looked at him, he was stern and emotionless. He's had the same expression on his face since he walked into my room.
"Yea" He lifts me up with ease and gently puts me down.
"So what is this about?" I look at Bulma and she smiles slightly.
"I'm going to look at the baby to see if it's ok."
"But the doctors already did that when I as in there. They said it was fine."
"Goten, they might be wrong. Vegeta has told me he senses something wrong, even Trunks agrees." I look up at him, his expression is as cold as the bench.
"I feel fine right now." I shifted my body and put my head on my hand.
"We are still going to check and make sure."
"How in the world do you and him 'sense' something's wrong?" I look at Trunks expecting an answer.
"Goten, trust me on this."
"No, tell me how you sense something wrong?" I see him flinch and he looks down at me. His eyes look glassy all of the sudden.
"Goten please just do this, it's not going to hurt."
"Oh, I don't mind to poked a little. Tell me why!"
"Lay down please." Bulma pushed on my chest and I complied.
"Trunks, tell me why now!" She pushed up my shirt and rubs my tummy a little.
"Shush Goten, he's the one that's going to look." I watch him wipe a gel on my stomach.
"Why couldn't the hospital look at me like this, huh?" I look at Bulma and she shakes her head.
"Goten this is a emergency. The appointment would be to late." The lights dim into darkness. I see Trunks' ice blue eyes glowing almost with the monitor he's staring at.
"Hey that tickles!" I laughed as his soft warm hands rubbed around with a small pad.
"Hold still for a few." I look at the monitor seeing what was inside me.
"Trunks what do you see?" He leans down into my face and kisses the top of my forehead. I feel a drop of something hit my skin.
"What was that for?"
"Trunks, it's ok I'll tell him." I see the monitor flash off and the lights turn up. Trunks starts to bawl.
"What's wrong Trunks?" I'm starting to get irritated because I see his face start to shake. He keeps moving it back and fourth on a single spot. He shakes hi head and moves closer to the monitor. What in the world could be wrong? no one is telling what is going on around here. Trunks leaves the room still crying. Bulma walks over and places her hand on mine.
"Goten, the baby…" She paused, "it's gone."
"What are you talking about, it's right here. I can feel it."
"Goten, have you noticed that it hasn't moved in the past few weeks since you and Trunks fought?" I nod and start thinking about what she means by gone. My body froze. It can't be like that!
"Bulma tell it's not dead!" She shakes her head slowly.
"I'm sorry Goten. I wish there was a way to bring it back."
"Then what happens now?" She wiped off the gel with a cloth and rubs my stomach.
"Your going to have to have it removed as soon as possible." Tears start to fly down my cheeks.
"Bulma how can you be so sure?"
"Goten, there is only one heart beat, there should be two."
"I'm going to go call the hospital to tell them."
"What caused this to happen?" I cried. My whole body started to shiver uncontrollably. My heart in my throat thumping, my breath short.
"Vegeta thinks it was from the stress, but I think differently. The reason why they sensed something was wrong was because they both smelled death on you. I can't smell but those two can."
"Get Trunks back in here, I need some one here." She nodded at me ad left.
Trunks POV
Our baby is dead. I knew that smell from my past. All the fights that me and my father had fought to save this planet, I could smell death. All the lives lost, blood, and tears, it's the same.
"Trunks, Goten wants you." My mother rubbed my shoulder.
"Yea, I figured." I get up and go back into the small room. In an instant I embrace him inside my arms. He cries out how scared he is. I kiss him and hold oh to him for what it seemed like hours until his crying subsided.
"So your going tomorrow to get it removed?" He nods and I pick him up in my arms and carry him up and into my room. I laid him down into my sheets on my bed. He pulls me down on him and kisses me deeply. Totally of my guard, taking me by surprise. I get up off of him and roll to the side, to get off his tummy. He sniffles and looks at me.
"Do you think we'll try to do it again?"
"Not for a awhile Goten. We have a lot of things to do before we ever try to do it again." I hold on to the side of the bed. "You need to get some sleep. I'll be in here in a few." He nods at me and snuggles into the covers. My ears pick up the light sound of the phone ringing. 'Who the hell would be calling at this hour?' I walk down the steps only to be ran into.
"Mom, watch out!…WHAHHH!" I fall with her slamming into me and roll down to the bottom floor in the living room.
"Mom gosh, what in the world are you doing?" I sit up holding my head feeling a large bump.
"Goten's brother is on the phone!"
"What?" I turn over expecting her to be there. She was of course gone out of sight. I got up and walked back up the steps hearing a squeal. I walked into the doorway and see Goten jabbering away on the phone.
"Gohan-Chan, you wouldn't believe where I'm at!"
"No I'm not." I hear a deep voice laugh on the line. "I'm in Capsule Corporation!"
I walked in and sat at the edge of my bed and watched him talk.
"No, I live in it!" I grab his foot and pull on it to get his attention. "You'd never believe it, I'm with Trunks!" I hear silence on the end of the line. Then a low giggle and Goten expression brightens. "So how have you been?" I scooted up and laid my head close to his chest. I sigh lightly when his hand came in contact with my short spiked hair. I close my eyes and listen to his voice.
"Yea, I figured it'd be that way….How'd you get this number any how? Oh, damn those people are still looking? That's so crazy, you know they'll never find her." I yawned and stretched my body out. He must be talking about his mother. I'm not so sure at this point of what his past life was like since he's moved here. He never did get mental or psychological tests done, nor any more out bursts since we'd gotten together, or was together.
"Yea I know, but hey how's pan doing?…That's good, Tell her I miss her too. Hope to get to see you some time soon….Love you too Bro. I won't, bye. Call me later when your not so busy. See ya" I'm pushed away as he gets up.
"You sounded happy to talk to him." He pats my leg and nods, leaving to go down the steps. His smile was gone as soon as it was created.
"Goten, are you coming back up?"
"In a few minutes, I need to talk to your mom for a few."'
"Oh alright, I'll be waiting up here for you." I'll always be here waiting for you. I want you back Goten. I never knew how hard it was to ignore who you really are. I just hope I'll ever get to see you smile again.
He's scared of doctors as it is, now they were going to poke and prod on him once again. I was right next to his side for him. He didn't sleep at all last night. He was tossing and turning all over. Waking me up in the process. I was tired as a dog, being up at seven in the morning on two hours sleep. I yawn and lean back in the chair, smelling the sterile bleached room. Hospitals are too cold, and quite. Yet in a split second it could turn into a hellish survival for life.
"Guess this is it Trunks."
"What?"
"Pay back from God."
"What are you talking about?"
"Payback for my deepest sin I could ever do, be with another man. My mother told me God would make my life miserable if I made this choice." I lift my head up and look at him shaking my head.
"Goten, God doesn't cause payback like that." Since Goten moved here I stopped going to church. Even though I fell for Goten, I'm still a very Christian kind of person.
"Well I guess someone doesn't like me." I wrap my arms around him hugging him lightly.
"Goten I can teach you the bible if you'd like." I feel him jerk away from me.
"I don't want to ever hear that damn book of lies! It's destroyed my heart and my family!" I sat down and shushed him a little.
"Sorry I said anything Go-Chan." He shook his head.
"No it's not your fault, it's my mothers." I looked at the door to see an old looking man walk into the door with a large syringe in his black gloved hand.
"Mr. Son?" I see him flinch.
"Yes?"
"My name is Paterson, I will be your doctor today. You are one rare case. I promise you this, I'll be as gentle as possible with you." I get up and stand by his head. I watch the man run his hand over his stomach softly and gently. So human males can do this too? Well freaks any ways.
"You need not to be tense, this is a quick and easy procedure."
"I'm sorry. I'm just really upset right now doctor. I'm trying to relax." He nods and wipes off a spot for him to insert the sharp appendage. I place my hands into his hair and hold his head. Touching his ears shortly after, massaging them to possibly help him relax.
"It's alright. Now once I give you this it will put you in labor." I feel Goten tense up.
"Will it hurt really bad?"
"Yes, but temporarily. It will be very quick and easy." I look down to him, tears falling from his eyes. I lean down and kiss lightly on his forehead.
"Cut it out Trunks, this is defiantly not the time to love on me like that." I backed off letting lose of him.
"Sorry, I just want to be here for you." The doctor paused and looked up at me. "What?"
"Just hold his hand you bastard." I nodded and grabbed his hand. I didn't have any idea why I couldn't act right. I'm so confused, like this is totally wrong.
"Shit!" He jumps nearly off the bed as the small metal object is put through his skin. I cringe and feel something fall from my eye. I can't control my emotions right now. They must think I'm some cold hearted son of a bitch. But I just feel so strange right now!
Bulma POV
I'm waiting in in the front room of the doctors office. It's been over an hour of sitting and waiting to see if Goten was going to be alright. Trunks broke down and started to bawl just shortly as the procedure began. He was once again laying his head down in my lap to cry it all out. He's never cried in front of his father, but today is different. He had a real reason to cry. I run my hand through his short hair behind his head.
"He'll be ok Trunks, honey." He sniffles and shakes his head no.
"It's all my fault, I should have never fell for his flirts. Then I stress him out so badly that we lose our baby! Now he's going through pain to remove it before it kills him! Tell me he's going to be ok!"
"Shush now, no need to yell Trunks. Sweet heart it's going to be fine. Just relax and go with the flow right now." He shuts up for a little while. I watch the door for the doctor to walk out with news. Trunks was so bad at showing the right reaction to something new. He'll just have to learn won't he?
"Mr. Brief?" I see no one in the door, it's the nurse at the sign in window.
"Yea?" He got up timidly and walked over to the small window. I got up shortly after he had gotten up.
"Goten is doing great, you may see him now. Sorry to keep you waiting so long, we have good news for you!" Trunks looked like he was going to go insane waiting for the door to be unlocked.
"What kind of good news?" He's eyes were shining brightly, something must have gone good in there for her to say that.
"Well go see for yourself." The door opened and he was gone as soon as it was opened.
"Trunks hold up not so fast!" I ran after him in hopes that he wouldn't jump on Goten when he saw him. He was already running in the room Goten was before he was transferred into the OR.
"Trunks he's not in there.." He pokes his head back out at me.
"Where is he?" I point.
"Get your ass over here and hold still for a minute then you'll find out!" He makes his way to me. After ward we were lead into a room on another floor. Walking into the room I noticed Goten didn't look any different than when we brought him here.
"Wait a minute what is going on here?" I asked, knowing that she planed to tell us any ways.
"Goten's baby is healthy and well. We discovered that Goten was expecting two." My mouth drops.
"Two!" Trunks was pale. Yet with a large smile on his face. Goten wasn't awake yet, or didn't seem like it. I sat down letting Trunks hear every thing that the woman had to say.
"But to sadly bring the bad news, one has, or would have passed before it is brought out into the world. That is the one that you may have saw has it being dead. It was fully dead and we removed it so that it doesn't harm your remaining baby." He nodded and frowned a bit.
"What caused it to die?"
"We think it's from Goten's size, his body was not built for two, not enough room in the womb. This caused the stronger of the two to live." I look over at Goten, his stomach did seem smaller, actually much smaller.
"So every things alright with that baby?"
"Yes of course, it's a happy healthy baby boy." Great another male in the house. My poor son, he's going to go insane once it's born.
"It's a boy!" I roll my eyes, what a dear surprise, hello Trunks you and Goten both are guys. Most likely it would be a boy!
Trunks POV
Five Weeks Later
Goten is fine now, everything will be ok from now on. Our passed baby got a proper burial. I'm still upset about losing him but at lease we still have one left. Goten was out of it for a long while after the surgery. When he found out about he could have had two, he freaked. But it really upset him that one didn't live and why. I'd love to have twin baby boys.
I'm not totally sure if me and him are back together. Occasional flirts and smooches are all I've got lately. With all the commotion of getting ready for him to have the baby and all. It's due in the next month and a half! Me and him haven't had enough time together by ourselves. I've learned so much about babies it's not funny! My mother wants me to go with Goten for parenting classes. I'm a bit freaked out about that. Goten's brother happened to stop by a few weeks ago right after the big scare. He's really nice, I talked to him a bit. I can see him and Goten are totally opposites, he's book smart and Goten's on his on wits.
I'm not going back into the office again. Joey's friends tried to pull more shit and was taken care for quite quickly. Stressed out on that? Hell naw!
"Hold this for me." I sigh and hold the small pile of clothes. "You like this?" I nod not even looking really. That's one thing that defiantly changed. Goten's belly disappeared almost entirely after the surgery. Only skin tight shirts could you see a light pooch to his belly. My dad said that was what a normal sayjin should look like in his condition. Shopping now was a thing for him. He loved it! He has already bought a whole wardrobe for our baby.
"Trunks are you having fun dear?" My mother pokes me in the rib cadge with an evil grin.
"Yea, loads." I plainly say standing still looking out at Goten looking at a pair of jeans.
"I'm sorry I'm taking so long, we can go if you want Tru-Chan." I shake my head no and look at my mother. She smiled and waved her hand lightly.
"Me and Bra are going to go look at ENGAGEMENT rings for NO APPARENT REASON." My eye twitched, she wanted me to propose to him already, I'm not quite sure why she wants me to do it so soon. I'm not sure I want to though either. I don't even know were together again, much less push him forward deeper into our weird relationship
"Go-Chan, aren't you getting hungry yet?" I said in a low tone seeing other people walking around him. It's not that I was bothered about people knowing what I am, but I like to keep the staring down to a minimum.
"Yea, just I want to get you something too." I roll my eyes and smile.
"Goten, I have enough things like clothes to fill this whole store."
"Liar! I fold your clothes buddy. I see the same damn shirts every other day we do laundry."
"It so happens I like those shirts." I cross my arms over my chest still holding his things. I'm picky about what I wear.
"It so happens you need more than just black and white babe." I flushed when the people turned to stare at me. They knew who I was, they were stalking me half way through the mall.
"Fine, just not here. They have one hell of a poor selection for my style."
"Oh, so my style sucks?" I fell to the floor.
"No! Just I wouldn't wear this, it's not like I don't like how it looks though." He started to laugh. He was trying to get on my nerves. I knew it. He's acting like a damn chick.
"Sorry, I knew that would get you irritated."
"It alright, just never turn into a female, that would royally suck."
"How come?"
"I don't speak woman." Not any more at least, or did I ever? Oh well what does it matter now?
"Yes that's right, you never will. Or I'll have to kick your ass."
"I'd love to see that." I laugh and he places another pile of clothes in my arms.
"Come on lets catch up with your mom." I stumble slightly and stager towards him. Damn spoiled brat, oh well at least I know I'll get rewarded in the end. I chuckle in the thought of a wonderful sack session with him might come up if I keep flirting with him. I guess we are back together sort of. We've only had sex once. Surprisingly only once. Which I regret not doing more. Ever since I've had the worst day dreams of my life. Walking around with a boner is not healthy I tell you! Me and him blew each other every once in a while…wait why am I thinking about this now?
"Goten, come look at all these really nice wedding bands!" My sister pulled my partner away from my arm as we walk into the door way. I was so glade I'd brought capsules to carry the shit he'd buy. I pat my pocket and smile.
"Wow it's so shinny!" Goten didn't really like to put things around his fingers. If I got a ring for him, he'd probably never wear it. Just look at it.
"Trunks check this out!" My sister pushes a box in front of me and opens it.
"What is it?"
"It's a promise ring, dumb ass."
"Perfect for what? I'm not getting married any time soon." I see Goten gaze up at me slightly and look away quickly when I made eye contact with him. Shit, is he expecting me to that so soon, even after our so called break up? Matter of a fact, he thinks I'll marry him? I'm sorry not at this point.
"No it's a PROMISE ring, it's to make up to your sweet heart after a bad fight."
"Sorry Bra, I still don't think we've worked out all the problems to be doing any of that right now." Goten nodded grabbing my arm, wrapping his around it. He agrees?
"Yea, were just not all the way finished picking up the pieces that were shattered yet." He's loving on me. Well I'm glad he's willing to work things out now.
"But we'll get there soon enough." I added, "Now can we get something to eat now?"
"Sure, lets go!"
I flopped down in my bed tiredly. I'm fat, happy and extremely sleepy from the extravagant trip we had today. Goten was watching movie with mom and dad, Bra went over to her boyfriends house to show him her new outfits, and me I'm sitting here. I get up and open my bathroom door and take my shirt off. I glance at myself and turn away. There is no really good reason why I should have a mirror I my bathroom. I already know what I look like, matter of a fact I know to much of myself. Too many damn pictures.
I turn on the faucet and wait for the water to turn hot and add soap. A bubble bath has got to be a must tonight. I haven't had enough time to do this in a while. I open my pants and slide them down my hips. Feeling the steam of the water hit my warm tan flesh I hurry and slide my boxers off letting it all hit me. I loved it when steam hit my body like this. It's so tantalizing for my senses.
I gaze back over at the mirror seeing myself in full glory. My belly button is starting having this thin line of hair making it's way downward to my sex. I'd like to maybe get my navel pierced. Knowing Goten might like it. Tanning is defiantly not my thing. I hate to think what my body would look like after thirty times of tanning. Nah I get the spray on kind, it's a lot safer in my opinion. Getting it professionally done is all I get, none of that cheap shit, I'd look orange! Speaking of the body hair I have, I need to trim.
I shrug and hop in the large oversized bath tub. Letting my body slide deep into the water as far as possible. I sigh with the new found heat. I lay my head back and prop up my feet. Then turning my head over to the silent TV that was in the wall in front of me. Let it stay off, I want some sort of calmness right now. All I hear the light sounds of my heart beating inside of my chest.
"Ahhh, now all I need here is a companion." Of course it was only an echo in the room. It would probably be awhile until I get to see Goten in here with me.
"Trunks?" A robotic voice called out. I look down on the floor to see Giru.
"Hey guy, I haven't seen you in awhile. What 'cha want?"
"Giru worried about Trunks." I smile and lean over the tub letting the soap bubbles on my hands and arms to drip on the floor.
"How come?"
"Trunks looks depressed." I laugh a little and sigh a little, putting my cold hands back into the water.
"Well I'm lovesick. Haven't you ever seen that before?"
"No, Giru has never seen it."
"Well this is something to add to your human emotions list."
"What makes Trunks lovesick?"
"I'm heart broken, I want Goten back with me."
"Giru go and get Goten, make Trunks happy again." I laugh a bit and put my half dry hand on him.
"It's not that simple. It's a bit different than friends Giru. I love him, much more than just a friend. Bringing him to me won't solve our problems together."
"Trunks, you people are to complicated. Giru, Giru.." Well it really late, you can eat that little box of parts next to my nightstand. I know your hungry, don't worry the parts are not needed." I watch him take off into the door way. I feed him every so often a good snack of parts, either from crappy computers or defective capsule chips. My mother usually feeds him every night. But tonight, since I need to get rid of the box he can have it. I roll my body back on my back comfortably.
"Trunks!" Now what? Can't I take a bath with out some one wanting me?
"Yea, I'm in the bath!" I didn't register who it was.
"Oh good." The door is opened from it half closed state. It's Goten, what in the hell is he doing?
"What do you want?"
"Just was wondering if you were in here that's all." He walks past the tub.
"Did you know your robot is eating your alarm clock?"
"He what?" I don't remember a alarm clock in that box.
"GIRU! DROP THE CLOCK!" I yell out, I hear him scream out and something hit the floor. "I said NEXT TO MY NIGHT STAND not on it!" Goten is laughing. He was using the restroom.
"You look comfortable in there." He flushes and washes his hands.
"I am, or was, considering my head is getting a headache. I was hoping for some peace."
"Giru heard Trunks, he wants you to be with him."
"Giru! Be quite you didn't hear anything like that." I splashed wet bubbles at the doorway he was in.
"Awe, Trunks don't be so mean to it." He leans down next to me, I feel like shit now. What's a man got to do to get some peace around here?
"I told him not to say anything. Damn robot doesn't like to see me sad." Goten's hand dips into the water.
"Really? I didn't know you were sad." I feel my eyes get wet a little.
"Yea, I'm really sad. Ok Giru I said it to him. This is your cue to leave now!" I watch him run off, probably under my bed somewhere.
"Mind if I join you, nothing more than that?" Knowing him, he's thinking of the last time he got in the water with me.
"Sure, just no funny business. I'm not in the mood to deal with it." I watch him take his clothes off quickly and jump in.
"Wow, this feels good." He purrs out and slides next to me. "No wonder you are in here right now."
"Any way, how was the movie you watched?" His head dips under the water and back up.
"Actually it was really dull, I hate chick flicks. It was about this girl wanting to be an ice skater or something. I passed out after a few minutes of the happy go lucky movie started."
"I'd walk out there before it would have started. I like action movies better than any thing. Comedy is good to watch with a friend too." He nods and grabs the shampoo near me.
"How are you feeling about being a new dad?"
"Actually very excited. I can't wait to hold him." He lathers up his own head with a smile on his cute face.
"That's good to hear, I'm glad you can be a man."
"What's that supposed to mean?"
"You can say you care for someone or thing with out acting stupidly about it to sound manly." I shrug and soap up my body slowly watching him.
"Goten, I hope you don't plan to act too fruity after you have this baby."
"Hell no, I'm going to go back to the way I was. The reason I act a bit different now is because of the hormone levels from the baby." He pauses, "Are you calling me a fruit basket?" I smile and shrug once more.
"Nah, its just you show your motions a bit more feminine."
"Exactly, your calling me a fruit! That's it I'm going to kick your ass.!"
"Goten not in here!" He jumps on me and shoves my head down under that water. He's climbing all over me like a wild animal!
"Die you sex god you!" I gasp for air and hold my body stiff. He's trying with all of his might to pull me back down.
"You beat my ass?" I grab his hips and push them down on my thighs. "Hold still you little three year old kid."
"I'm no kid!" He turns around and faces me. "Would a kid do this?"
"Yipe! Goten stop that, were not messing around like that in here."
"Why not?" He wraps his arms around my neck. "I know you'd like to, I can feel how horny you are." I flush and push my head away from his.
"Goten that's not the point, I'm just not wanting to do that right now. Besides don't you think it's about time we do this out of water? I'd like to do it at least once in my bed.
