"Hi everyone." Yamcha said with a smile.
"Hey; what brings you over?" Trunks asked looking around.
"Oh you know…I was just in the neighborhood…" Yamcha said rubbing the back of his head.
"Where are Yami and Yugi?" Knickers asked looking around.
"They are with their mother." Yamcha said with a sigh.
"Are you two still not getting along?" Bulla asked as she ate a cookie.
"Bulla, mind your own business." Bulma said looking at her daughter.
"It's ok Bulma. No, we're still not getting along. At least we were never married; I still have my car and house." Yamcha said with a smile.
"What about them?" Bulla asked curious.
"She rented an apartment across town." Yamcha said calmly.
"Are you still going to get to see the boys?" Bulma asked concerned.
"I'm getting full custody of them next month; so they're staying with their mother until then." Yamcha said with a smile.
"Who would give you full custody?" Vegeta asked as he sat at the kitchen table.
"The government; she's incapable of taking care of the kids herself. Right now her sister is helping her. I was nice enough to let her have them for the next week and a half." Yamcha said rather annoyed.
"Well…I'm going to use the bathroom." Bulla said as she walked down the hall.
"I'll be right back; I have to use the bathroom as well." Bulma said as she went to her bathroom.
"That was weird…" Leo said as he looked down the hall.
"Yeah… So we'll get to see Yami and Yugi more?" Knickers asked looking at Yamcha.
"Yeah; a lot more." Yamcha said with a smile until he seen Vegeta glaring at him.
"Excuse me." Yamcha said as he started walking down the same hall as Bulma.
"When can we go home?" Leo asked as he and Knickers went to the couch.
"As soon as your sister wakes up. And no, that does not mean go wake her up." Trunks said seriously as he sat at the kitchen table.
Elsewhere…
Bulma was walking down the hallway when Yamcha pulled her into what he thought was an empty room.
"Yamcha, what are you doing; everyone's here." Bulma said as Yamcha gently pushed her up against a wall.
"I see that; I thought you were supposed to have the house to yourself today…" Yamcha said as he started feeling Bulma up.
"That's later tonight… Trunks had some business to take care of earlier so Vegeta and I offered to watch the kids. Vegeta's going out later tonight to train with Goku and Piccolo and Bulla has a date. But that's all tonight. Now, if you don't mind; we have to go back out to the kitchen." Bulma said seriously.
"Just a little longer, please?" Yamcha asked, begging.
"If the baby wasn't sleeping in here, I'd say yes; but Momo is asleep." Bulma said seriously.
"What is she doing in Trunks's old room?" Yamcha asked finally noticing Momo sleeping peacefully.
"Comfort." Bulma said simply.
"Can I at least get a kiss?" Yamcha asked, holding onto Bulma.
"Ok…" Bulma sighed, giving into Yamcha; she leaned up to him, while he leaned down and their lips connected in a gentle kiss.
"What the hell is going on in here?!" Bulla shrieked in shock and horror.
"Bulla; what are you doing in here?" Bulma asked in shock.
"I could ask you the same question." Bulla said as she started to realize what was going on.
"Now Bulla, just stay calm…" Bulma said calmly as she put her hands up.
"Oh my Kami; you're cheating on dad…with Uncle Yamcha! What the hell?!" Bulla yelled incredibly frustrated.
"Bulla, please calm down." Bulma started; but it was too late; Trunks, Vegeta and the boys were already there.
"What's going on?" Vegeta asked annoyed.
"And whatever it is, could we please not do it in the room that Momo's sleeping in?" Trunks asked also annoyed.
"Mom's cheating on dad with Uncle Yamcha; I just saw them kissing!" Bulma exclaimed once they were in the living room.
"What?" Trunks asked in shock as he looked from his sister to his mother.
"Boys, go play in the backyard. Knickers, keep an eye on your brother; and Leo, listen to your brother." Trunks said seriously.
"Ok." Knickers and Leo said at the same time as they ran to the sliding doors that led to the backyard.
"Now, what's going on?" Trunks asked looking at his mom and Yamcha.
"Your mother and I are having an affair." Yamcha said simply.
"Mom?" Bulla asked looking at her mom.
"It's true…" Bulma sighed; she had been caught.
"Dad?" Trunks and Bulla asked looking at Vegeta; this didn't look like it was news to him.
"What?" Vegeta asked simply.
"Aren't you going to say anything?" Bulla asked becoming upset.
"I already knew." Vegeta said simply, shocking Bulla, Trunks and Yamcha, but not Bulma.
"What do you mean you already knew?" Yamcha asked in shock.
"And you're ok with all this?" Bulla asked, going from upset to angry.
"I mean, I knew; I caught them…three months ago." Vegeta said simply.
"Three months?! You knew for three months?!" Yamcha and Bulla asked in shock and anger.
"Why didn't you say anything?" Trunks asked confused.
"I talked to your mother about it. If she's not happy with me, there's not much I can do." Vegeta said simply.
"But you stay?" Bulla asked in shock.
"Of course; I still love her." Vegeta said simply, with a shrug.
"And what about you?" Yamcha asked looking at Bulma.
"I still love Vegeta…I just wish he'd show it more. And I love Yamcha as well." Bulma said calmly.
"You can't love them both! No wonder Trunks did what he did…" Bulla yelled exasperated.
"What is that supposed to mean?" Trunks asked annoyed.
"Did you cheat on Mai? Is that why she left?" Bulla asked looking directly at Trunks.
"I didn't cheat on Mai; she cheated on me and then went back to Pilaf where he got himself, Mai and their other member blown up." Trunks said seriously, becoming angry.
"Ok…then what about your one night stands?" Bulla asked right away.
"What about them?" Trunks asked, narrowing his eyes at his sister.
"Why so many? Can't commit?" Bulla asked looking directly at Trunks.
"Because I was in a bad place. I made mistakes, yes; but my kids are not; so don't even go there. And no, maybe I couldn't commit; but at those times, I didn't want to. All I wanted to do at those times was feel numb and forget. Even so, I never once pushed Knickers or Leo away. After Leo was born I told myself I was done with all that…" Trunks explained before being interrupted.
"Before you met and fucked Momo's mother…whoever she is." Bulla said, striking a chord with Trunks.
"Her name is Miki and I don't know why I had any kind of relationship with her. I met her in a bar and at the time of meeting her, I didn't want anything to do with her; it was two hours later that anything happened!" Trunks yelled very angry.
"You said she was Venarian?" Vegeta asked with a sigh.
"Yes, that's correct; that's what she told me." Trunks said as calmly as he could.
"Well now it makes since. Venarians are from Venus, the planet of love and beauty. The people from Venus, Venarians, tend to get what they want…and that's usually sex; Venarians are addicted to sex…" Vegeta explained.
"So watch out for Momo then." Bulla said seriously, interrupting Vegeta.
"What is that supposed to mean?" Trunks asked, now glaring at his sister.
"It means, she'll probably turn out to be a sex addict." Bulla said calmly.
"What has gotten into you?" Bulma asked in shock.
"I'm just going off of what dad was saying. And it's better than calling her a slut." Bulla said simply.
"Knock it off! Before you interrupted me, I was going to say, most Venarians love sex, yes; but they just want love. Most Saiyans…well most men of any species are weak towards Venarians. And I say men because pretty much all Venarians are women. With that being said, there are some Venarian men. Also, Venarians are not fighters. Now we come to Momo; she's only half Venarian; she's also half Saiyan…and she's autistic. What all that means is that she'll probably just look for love…and because of the Saiyan in her, she'll fight for her love." Vegeta explained.
"Assuming she knows what love is." Bulla said in a bratty tone of voice.
"Bulla…" Bulma growled.
"Dad?" Knickers and Leo asked when they walked in; it had started raining out.
"Go get your stuff; we're going home." Trunks sighed; he was pissed off.
"Is Momo awake?" Leo asked as Knickers went to their room.
"Go." Trunks growled, getting Leo to listen right away.
"Trunks…" Bulma started.
"You do what you want to do and whatever makes you happy. I just can't deal with this drama…or Bulla's attitude right now. I'm going to get my kids and head home." Trunks said as calmly as he could as he went to get Momo.
He packed her stuff up first before throwing her bag over his shoulder; he then picked Momo and her teddy bear up.
"We're ready." Knickers said calmly as they met up in the living room.
"Is Aunt Bulla mad at us?" Leo asked confused.
"She's not mad at you. But never you mind any of that; it's not for kids to worry about. Now let's get going." Trunks said seriously.
"Ok. See you later. Love you." Knickers and Leo said as they hugged Bulma and Vegeta.
"Love you too." Bulma said hugging Knickers and Leo at the same time.
"Love both of you champs." Vegeta said hugging Knickers and then Leo.
"You'll let Momo know we love her, right?" Bulma asked looking at Trunks.
"Of course." Trunks said with a smile before he and the boys went out to the car.
"Oh, I'd better go let them out; I think I'm blocking them in." Yamcha said heading out.
"This is your own fault that they found out…" Vegeta mumbled as he sat down.
"How is it my fault?" Bulma asked offended.
"You let him in." Vegeta said in a plain tone of voice.
"He just showed up." Bulma shot back.
"Maybe so; but you didn't send him away. And you were caught kissing in a room with the door left open." Vegeta said seriously.
Bulma was going to say something, but realized that he was right.
"Hey, I have to head out. The boys aunt just called me; I have to go get them. I'll explain later. Love you." Yamcha said before he left.
"Love you too." Bulma said looking at the door.
"So…are you planning on having him move in or moving in with him?" Vegeta asked looking at Bulma.
"No to either…why are you asking me that?" Bulma asked offended.
"Well, you do love him, don't you?" Vegeta asked looking directly at her.
"Yes, but not as much as I love you." Bulma said right away.
"So why are you sleeping with him then?" Vegeta asked standing up.
"I'm not sleeping with him! We're just dating...and kissing!" Bulma yelled becoming furious.
"Uh-huh… Are they yours?" Vegeta asked looking at Bulma.
"What are you talking about now?" Bulma asked annoyed.
"Yamcha's kids; are they yours? I mean I was gone for a year." Vegeta said looking at Bulma.
"You were in the hyperbolic time chamber! That's a year there; that's only a day here! It's impossible for me to have a baby in a day!" Bulma yelled.
"What about that time Kakarot and I went away for six months?" Vegeta asked right away.
"You came back and they were born a month later! I didn't have any type of baby bump at all! Yami and Yugi aren't mine!" Bulma yelled becoming upset.
"Uh-huh… How do I know that's true?" Vegeta asked, challenging her.
"I guess you don't; you'll just have to trust me." Bulma said looking at her husband.
"How can I trust someone who's been cheating on me?" Vegeta asked causing Bulma to start crying.
"Get out! Leave! And don't come back until you realize just how much you hurt me!" Bulma yelled very hurt.
"That's fine. I won't come back until you realize how much you actually hurt me." Vegeta said calmly before walking out, leaving Bulma alone in the kitchen.
With Trunks Kids:
"Ok…" Trunks said as he carefully picked Momo up as not to wake her; he then carried her inside and to her room.
"Leo and I got all the bags." Knickers said walking into Momo's room with her overnight bag along with Leo.
"Thank you boys. Now off you go; don't wake your sister." Trunks said seriously as he covered Momo up and placed her teddy bear in her arms.
Two Hours Later:
Momo had just climbed out of bed after waking up and was heading to the living room.
"There you are. Did you have a nice nap? You slept for a long time today." Trunks said as Momo walked out to the living room with her blanket and teddy bear.
"What's for dinner?" Leo asked coming out of his room just as Trunks picked Momo up.
"We're having fish, hash browns and vegetables." Trunks said seriously.
"Ok. When are you going to make it?" Leo asked right away.
"In a little bit." Trunks said as he picked Momo up and set her in the chair.
Knock. Knock. Knock.
"Hello? Dad?" Trunks asked in shock as he opened his door.
"Can I come in?" Vegeta asked standing there.
"Yeah; what's going on?" Trunks asked letting his dad in.
"Grandpa!" Leo and Knickers yelled happily.
"Boys, go to your room." Trunks said calmly.
"What about Momo?" Knickers asked.
"What about dinner?" Leo asked.
"Your sister is just fine; and I'll make dinner in a little bit. Just relax. You'll be just fine; you're not going to starve." Trunks said seriously as Momo climbed out of the chair.
"You don't know that…" Leo said dramatically.
"Go." Trunks said calmly.
"Daddy?" Momo asked softly.
"What is it baby?" Trunks asked, picking her up.
"Play game?" Momo asked as she played with her hands.
"We'll play after dinner; and then we'll watch movies." Trunks said calmly.
"Candy Land?" Momo asked softly.
"Nope, I bought a new game." Trunks said with a small smile; he didn't know how well she was going to take that.
"K…" Momo said, scrunching up her face.
"We'll play Candy Land with you now." Knickers said with a smile.
"We will?" Leo asked making a face.
"We will." Knickers said, elbowing Leo in the side.
"Right…" Leo mumbled.
"Candy Land!" Momo cried happily as she kicked her legs to get down.
"Ok." Trunks said with a smile as her set Momo down; she just ran to her brothers.
"Have fun and behave." Trunks said seriously.
"We will." Both boys said as they led Momo to their room.
"She's more talkative than normal." Vegeta said as they watched the kids disappear.
"She's home; and she always talks to me. Sometimes she'll talk to Knickers; but mostly just me. Do you want to eat here?" Trunks asked as he got their dinner ready.
"What about Leo? Yeah, I'll have whatever it is you're making." Vegeta asked and then answered.
"I'm making fish with hash browns and vegetables. As for Leo…he's usually making her cry; so she associates him as not good and doesn't talk to him. However, deep down, he really does love and care for her; he just doesn't show it…" Trunks said with a sigh.
"Well…that's unfortunate." Vegeta said as he looked around.
"Yeah… So what do you need? I know you're not just here for dinner or to talk." Trunks said looking at his father.
"Your mother kicked me out; I guess I was being insensitive." Vegeta said plainly.
"That sounds like you…but mom really shouldn't be talking right now." Trunks sighed as he started on the fish and hash browns; the vegetables would be made in the microwave.
"Well…it isn't all her fault; I didn't do or say anything other than do what she wants. Anyways, I need a place to stay." Vegeta said calmly.
"You can stay in the spare room…" Trunks started only to be interrupted by Momo screaming and running to the kitchen with tears running down her face.
"What's going on? I thought you were playing Candy Land." Trunks said picking Momo up; he learned a long time ago how to cook and hold a child at the same time.
Just then Leo and Knickers came running out.
"What is going on?" Trunks asked demanding an answer.
"Don't listen to them; they're lying." Leo said right away.
"This ought to be good…" Vegeta sighed.
"Sit down. At the kitchen table; all of you." Trunks said seriously.
"Do you want me to make dinner?" Vegeta asked looking at Trunks.
"That'd be great, thanks." Trunks sighed as he looked at his children; Leo was kind of smiling while Knickers glared at him while Momo sat there ready to cry.
"Stop your crying; dad's not going to fall for that crap." Leo said looking at Momo.
"Leo Aries Briefs; do not speak to your sister that way! I do not know what has gotten into you lately; but it needs to stop…right now. The only one at this table who lies to me is you. Has Knickers ever lied to me? Yes, he has; but that was years ago; he knows better now…I hope. Momo has never lied to me…but I'm sure she will one day. Or she will try to. But for now, she doesn't. So Knickers, what is going on?" Trunks asked looking at Knickers.
"Why are you asking him?" Leo immediately complained.
"Because Momo's not going to talk right now; something's got her really upset; and I want to know what or why. I already know I can't trust what you have to say. When you come in yelling don't trust what they have to say because they're lying usually means you're not going to tell me the truth. So Knickers, if you would; tell me what is going on." Trunks said seriously.
"It started when we were picking out characters; Momo wanted to be blue…but so did Leo…or so he said. I think he only wanted to be blue because that's what Momo picked; he usually chooses green or yellow. And then when were deciding who went first, I suggested Momo, Leo and then me. He didn't like that and freaked out. Momo looked at me and said it would be ok if he went first. So we started playing; and after only turns Leo freaked out and accused Momo of cheating. He said she kept moving her piece when it wasn't her turn or moving extra spaces. She didn't do any of that; I counted her moves and told her where she could land and she listened very well. I told him that and he flipped the board and several pieces hit Momo. It just kind of went from there." Knickers explained looking directly in Trunks's eyes.
"Leo?" Trunks asked looking directly at Leo.
"She should've just let me be blue." Leo muttered.
"Ok…well, you can sit here until dinner's done and we're all done eating. Then we're going to play family game night and watch movies. Oh, and you've lost your DS for another day. Arguing will get you another day; and the longer you argue the more days you will lose. From now on, if you're not going to be nice to your sister, you will also lose days with your DS. Do I make myself perfectly clear?" Trunks asked dead serious.
"Yes sir…" Leo mumbled.
"Momo, you can stop crying now; you're not in trouble." Trunks said calmly.
"Is grandpa eating with us tonight?" Knickers asked as he sat in his spot.
"Yes. Tonight and for as long as he's living here." Trunks said calmly.
"Grandpa's going to be living with us? Cool! Is it because grandma kissed Uncle Yamcha?" Leo asked right away.
"Leo, that's none of your business. But, he will be living with us for as long as he needs." Trunks said seriously.
"Well, it's a good thing we're moving in a few months." Leo said with a smile.
"Leo Aries Briefs!" Trunks yelled.
"What?" Leo asked confused.
"You're moving?" Vegeta asked, shocked.
"In a few months, yes. I was going to tell you and mom…and Momo Monday after Momo's doctor appointment." Trunks explained.
"No move…" Momo cried.
"Momo…we have to move; our lease is almost up and someone else wants this house. Plus we need a bigger place." Trunks explained calmly.
"No! Dis our home!" Momo cried, turning red in the face as she slid off of her chair and ran to her room.
"I'll go talk to her." Knickers said right away.
"No; you stay there and watch your brother; I'll go talk to her." Trunks said seriously.
"I'll just keep working on the food." Vegeta said as Trunks went after Momo.
"Thanks!" Trunks called back.
When he got to her room, Trunks found Momo trying to get under her bed; her back end was struggling to get under all the way.
"Momo…" Trunks sighed as he walked over to her; he gently got ahold of her hips and gently pulled her out.
"No!" Momo screamed.
"Now that is enough. When you're ready to calm down, we'll talk." Trunks said in a firm, but calm tone of voice.
Ten Minutes Later:
Momo finally stopped crying and hyperventilating enough to talk.
"Are you done crying now?" Trunks asked with a sigh.
"Yes…" Momo said softly, chest heaving up and down.
"I'm sorry you had to find out this way; but we are moving in a few months. We can't live here anymore." Trunks explained calmly.
"Why?" Momo asked right away.
"Someone else wants to move in here and I want a bigger place for all of us. I also want somewhere that is bigger and can be permanent. Somewhere where you and your brothers can grow up and always be able to go back to." Trunks explained as Vegeta walked in.
"You already have a place, don't you?" Vegeta asked plainly.
"Yes, I do. I'm just waiting for the renovations to get done." Trunks said calmly.
"How long is that going to take?" Leo asked walking over with Knickers.
"I thought I told you to stay at the table until after everyone was done eating." Trunks said looking at Leo.
"I tried to stop him…" Knickers started.
"You did…" Leo started.
"Then why aren't you sitting there?" Trunks asked seriously.
"I wanted to see what her punishment would be." Leo said honestly.
"Why would I punish her?" Trunks asked confused.
"She had a complete meltdown." Leo replied right away.
"Leo, she's scared; she doesn't take change well. And you're the reason she freaked out in the first place. I told you that this was a secret and I would tell her when the time was right." Trunks said seriously.
"And it's not like she just got away with this…" Knickers mumbled, annoyed.
"Really now? What kind of punishment did she get?" Leo asked annoyed while he stomped his feet.
"You need to calm down or you won't be participating in games tonight. Not that it's any of your business, I made her sit on her bed until she calmed down and then had a firm talk with her. I did the same thing for you and Knickers when you were both her age. And you both know that she's not perfect; she has been on time out plenty of times before." Trunks explained calmly, but seriously.
"Not nearly as much as Leo." Knickers mumbled.
"Knickers, that's enough…" Trunks started, but was interrupted.
"Why is that?" Leo asked right away.
"She behaves better than you do. I swear, the only time you behave is when you're in school. Which, is a good thing; but you need to behave at home as well. Before you even think about saying anything; Momo, like the both of you, is not perfect by any means. She makes mistakes and misbehaves from time to time; but she does behave better than you. From now on I would appreciate it if you'd behave…all three of you. Do I make myself perfectly clear?" Trunks asked seriously.
"Yes dad…" Knickers and Leo said right away.
"Momo?" Trunks asked looking at Momo.
"Yes daddy?" Momo asked looking up at Trunks.
"Are you going to be a good girl and behave?" Trunks asked seriously.
"Yes daddy." Momo relied softly.
"Good. Now…is dinner ready?" Trunks asked looking at his father.
"Yes; it's ready." Vegeta said calmly.
"Ok. Go on; go take your seats at the table." Trunks said picking Momo up.
"We'll see how long that lasts…" Vegeta mumbled as they walked to the kitchen.
"Hmm?" Trunks asked.
"Them behaving." Vegeta replied.
"Yeah…I know…" Trunks sighed as he placed Momo in her booster seat.
Half an Hour Later:
"So, what game are we playing tonight?" Knickers asked looking at Trunks.
"Right…I got a new game to play tonight." Trunks said getting up.
"Is grandpa going to be playing as well?" Leo asked when Trunks came back.
"Trouble? Is that like Sorry?" Knickers asked looking at the box.
"I'm not sure; we'll have to read the rules. And as for grandpa…I don't think so; but he can help Momo move her pieces around. The game itself, like Sorry, is a four player only game." Trunks said as he started setting things up.
"So, I'll be whatever color is left over. Momo, you can pick first; what color would you like to be?" Trunks asked looking at Momo.
"Red?" Momo asked softly.
"Red it is. Knickers, what color would you like?" Trunks asked looking at Knickers.
"What about me?" Leo asked right away, having a fit.
"You get to pick last." Trunks said calmly.
"Why?!" Leo yelled furious.
"Because of how you behaved when playing Candy Land. Now, if you want to play Trouble, you'd better calm down, relax and behave. Now, Knickers; what color would you like?" Trunks explained seriously and then asked again.
"I'll take green." Knickers said calmly.
"Leo, your turn." Trunks said calmly.
"I guess I'll take blue…" Leo mumbled.
"That' leaves me yellow." Trunks said with a slight smile.
"So, who goes first?" Vegeta asked looking at Trunks.
"Well, let's go over the rules." Trunks said calmly.
An Hour A Half Later:
After three rounds of Trouble, Trunks had to pull the plug and say it was time to get pajamas on.
"But I'm not tired!" Leo complained.
"You're not going to bed; it's time to watch movies." Trunks said simply, trying to remain calm.
"Movie time means jammy and popcorn time." Momo said softly.
"Very good Momo." Trunks said with a smile.
"I take back what I said before; that's the most I've ever heard her talk." Vegeta said in shock.
"She's talks when she's home, feels safe/comfortable or has something to say." Trunks said as he carried her to her room.
Ten Minutes Later:
Knickers, Leo and Momo were all in their pajamas and the popcorn was made.
"Pop-Pop watch movies?" Momo asked as Trunks came out with the popcorn.
"I don't know…" Trunks sighed as Vegeta walked over.
"What are we watching?" Vegeta asked calmly.
" Child's Play !" Leo exclaimed happily.
"No." Knickers and Trunks said at the same time.
"Why not?" Leo asked right away.
"Are you crazy?" Knickers asked right away.
"That's enough. But you and your sister are much too young for that movie. I know you seen that movie at a friends…which I certainly was not happy about." Trunks started.
"But it didn't scare me; I really liked it." Leo complained.
"That's fantastic. But that movie would give your sister nightmares." Trunks said seriously.
"Fine…" Leo mumbled.
"So what are we watching then?" Vegeta asked right away.
"Momo will pick a movie, then Leo and then Knickers. Like normal we do it this way so that Momo actually gets to watch a movie; she usually ends up falling asleep during the second movie. So Momo, what would you like to watch?" Trunks asked looking at Momo.
"Mermaid! Mermaid!" Momo cried happily, bouncing up and down.
"Mermaid?" Vegeta asked confused.
"The Little Mermaid; it's her favorite." Trunks said calmly.
"I'm guessing it's a kid's movie?" Vegeta asked looking at Trunks.
"That's correct. Do you want to watch it with us or no?" Trunks answered and then asked.
"Pease pop-pop?" Momo asked softly, pleading with Vegeta.
"Fine…" Vegeta mumbled as he sat in the chair.
So they watched The Little Mermaid , followed by Stuart Little and finally, because Momo fell asleep, Gremlins…
