"And so the princess and the prince ran into the sunlight never looking back, and they lived happily ever after. The end."

Lazuli grinned. "That's a really nice story mommy."

Lazuli's mother gently caressed her head and said, "It was my favorite one growing up."

"Mommy?" Lazuli said softly. "Is that what love is really like?"

Her mother smiled warmly. "This story is great but it doesn't even begin to describe what true love feels like. True love is so much better."

"You have that with daddy?"

She nodded in response. "Yes your father and I have the best love story in the world."

"Tell me."

Her mother laughed. "Again?"

"I love hearing it."

"Next time my dear, it's getting late."

When she stood up to leave Lazuli said, "mommy?"

"Yeah?"

"What does love feel like?"

She was surprised by that question but she still stepped closer to Lazuli and answered, "it's so hard to explain but it's all consuming."

"All consuming?"

Her mother nodded. "It's like they become a part of everything you are. You can't imagine your life without them. Everything you've ever known changes to revolve around the other person. With your father I had to leave my family because they didn't like him. I was super sheltered, always homeschooled never even imagined a life without them. They were my whole world until I met your father. Then he became my whole world. It was an easy choice to leave it all for him."

Lazuli smiled. "That's beautiful mommy. What does it feel like?"

"Hmm, I guess it feels like butterflies in your belly and tingling everywhere," she said. "It's hard to explain. But here's a for sure way you can know. If you look into the person's eyes and feel like you could get lost in those eyes and look into them forever then you know, that's love."

XXXXXXXX

18 lifted her head and looked at him right in the eyes. "I don't think I can ever become Lazuli again."

"You don't have to," Krillin said with a gentle smile. "I'll love you either way."

18 froze. Love? Did he say...love? "How can you love me?"

Krillin looked puzzled by the question.

"I'm a monster..."

"No you're not," Krillin said caressing her cheek. "You are a woman who had her childhood and life stolen from her, I know what that's like."

18 nodded for him to continue.

"My parents abandoned me at monk's monastery as a baby," Krillin said. "The monks were awful. They treated me like dirt and the other children made fun of me for not having a nose. I got beat to a bloody mess every day. They used to whip me and lock me in the service closet. That's why I ran away to train with Master Roshi. I wanted to be able to defend myself against them, even though I told him I wanted to learn to get ladies to like me."

Krillin leaned back and pointed to the line of scars all over his torso. "I got a lot on my back too."

18 reached forward and gently touched the longest scar on that went from Krillin's side all the way to the middle of his chest.

"I got that from one of the brothers for stealing a piece of bread," Krillin said. "I hadn't eaten in two days and they said they wouldn't give me any food until I finished scrubbing the floors."

18 had so many scars like that but Gero covered them up. They weren't visible but they were still there.

"Look my childhood wasn't ideal but Master Roshi and Goku changed that," Krillin said. "They helped me, showed me that people could care about me and that it was okay for me to trust again."

Krillin tilted 18's chin up until their eyes connected. "I care about you. I love you. Regardless of whatever atrocities you may have committed because of Gero. And I want you to trust me."

"I do," 18 whispered feeling her heart beating so fast if she still had the self destruct bomb it would've exploded by now. Everything in her body was tingling and she trembled.

Krillin leaned closer to her. "Then trust me."

He pressed his lips against hers tenderly and she immediately melted. She surrendered into his arms without even the slightest hesitation.

She wrapped his arms around his neck as he pulled her flush against him. She moaned softly and pushed him slightly until he was lying flat on his back.

She straddled his hips and broke the kiss to look into his eyes.

"If you look into the person's eyes and feel like you could get lost in those eyes and look into them forever then you know, that's love."

Oh kami. She loved him. She loved him a lot.

She opened her mouth to try to tell him but she chickened out and instead leaned down and kissed him. He responded to the kiss immediately and slowly started sliding his hands up her thighs.

The soft touch made her whole body tremble and she moaned softly. She sighed as Krillin started kissing down her jawline and found that delicious spot on her throat.
Her brain felt foggy, she couldn't even think. She kissed his jawline to his ear and bit into it.

He grunted and grinded against her instinctively. She felt a burning sensation rising up from her crotch and on instinct she said into Krillin's ear, "I love you."

Krillin reacted immediately, he rolled them over and pinned her underneath him. For a moment she thought that she was more than strong enough to not let herself be dominated but something about him being on top of her and having the power that excited her.

He slid his hands underneath 18's T-shirt and gently lifted it up and off of her. She was wearing only thin panties underneath. Krillin gulped audibly as he looked at her body.
She felt her face heat up but really enjoyed the way he was looking at her, as if she were a work of art. He gently started kissing down her clavicle to her breasts. 18 gasped at the sensation as he gently kissed her breasts and then he started suckling on her nipple.

The feeling made her back arch and a long moan escape her lips. She never felt something like that before. The burning turned into an out of control fire and her trembling hands scratched down his back. He groaned at the sharp pain she caused him but that seemed to edge him on. He moved to the other nipple and sucked it in harder.

"Ahhh," 18 cried clenching her eyes shut and sliding her hands down to his butt. She squeezed it hard and pushed him tighter against her. That's when she felt the full length of his excitement. Her eyes widened. Wow.

Krillin's hands slid down her waist and gripped the top of her panties. He pulled them down and she kicked them off anxiously then pushed on his boxers.

He assisted in pulling them off them getting back on top of her. She felt his hardness pressing hard against her stomach and she gulped.

When he lined himself up to her she gripped his shoulders nervously, looked him in the eyes, and said, "go slowly."

Krillin smiled at her and said, "okay."

He pushed in slowly until he reached her barrier then one of her hands flew to his stomach to push him back as she whined in pain.

"You've never done this before?" Krillin said looking genuinely surprised.

Her face flushed bright red and she nodded. He took both of her hands and gently pinned them up above her head. He interlocked their fingers together and held them there tightly. He pressed down on them as hard as he could as he continued to push in. She cried out and struggled against him so he kissed her. He could see her brow furrowing in pain so he finished the movement in one hard thrust.

She broke the kiss to cry out and wrung her hands free to grip his shoulders hard.

"Kaaami," 18 groaned. "S-stay still!"

Krillin stayed frozen in place but continued to gently kiss her cheek and jawline. He kissed back down to that special spot on her throat and started sucking.

In few moments 18 started moaning and moving on her own. Krillin let her move on him for a long while. He stopped kissing her neck and just watched with her eyes closed slowly moving up and down on his length.

He leaned towards her ear and gently licked her earlobe. She moaned loudly and started moving faster. "Do you like that?" He whispered in her ear.

"Mmhmm," she moaned. "F-feels so...good."

Krillin thrust into her once making her cry out.

"Kami, again," 18 moaned.

He complied making their skin slap together loudly. 18 dug her nails into his shoulder releasing a slur of curses before breathing out his name.

Krillin started moving at slow and steady pace. 18 wrapped her legs around Krillin's hips and gripped his shoulders harder.

It was a death grip that would've crushed every single bone in a regular human's body but Krillin was the strongest human so he grunted through the pain and thrust harder and faster.

18's cries echoed off the walls and sweat coated both of their bodies . The bed creaked loudly and slammed against the wall with every movement.

18 gripped him even harder and Krillin had to raise his Ki to the max to not get killed. He thrust into her at his full power and she screamed in pleasure.

18 felt a strong tingling sensation rising up from her toes and spread through her body like a raging wild fire. Her back arched and she cried out Krillin's name. What was happening to her!?

"Kami! Ahhhhh!" 18 screamed as her body burst into hard shudders, she pulsed around him, and she saw stars behind her eyes.

Krillin was being squeezed so tightly he couldn't move anymore and he struggled to keep his bones unbroken. The pulsing pushed him over the edge and he groaned loudly as he released himself into her.

18 released him as she collapsed onto the bed breathing heavily. He collapsed on top of her with a groan.

Everything hurt but he didn't care, he couldn't stop smiling.

"I...hurt you," 18 said gently rolling Krillin over onto his back. He groaned at the pain, yeah his several of his ribs were definitely broken.

"I guess I gotta train some more," Krillin said with a laugh. "Be stronger for you."

18 couldn't help but smile at him. "I'm sorry." She kissed his cheek and immediately saw his face redden.

"Nothing a sensu bean cant fix," he said with a shy smile. "Worth it."
