Chapter 14

Late Sunday Night...

Goten grinned from ear to ear as he flew back home after a wonderful date with Sara. It was definitely a night he would remember and hopefully they could go on a date again. He let out a sigh as he dived down and landed in front of his house.

He entered the small building and greeted his parents who looked blankly at him. Goku and ChiChi glanced at each other before smiling. "I take it the date went well, Goten" ChiChi said just as Goten exited the room.

"You bet!" He called back and chuckled when he heard ChiChi already planning to get Sara to come and visit them. He entered his room and fell onto his bed with a deep sigh. What a night... Goten thought and just as he closed his eyes, his phone rang.

He picked up the phone without even looking at the Caller ID and the first person who came to his thoughts was Sara. "Hello, Goten" That wasn't Sara or even Trunks. Goten growled dangerously when he recognized the voice.

"Cindy Wu" Goten's tone was dangerously low and he could feel his anger boiling within his veins. The Blonde that messed Trunks up badly and now she was calling him? He wondered how she got his number but knew that her dark haired friend probably gave it to her.

"It's been a long time. The three of us haven't spoken in two years" Cindy said and Goten was reminded of homecoming. In Junior Year, Trunks asked Cindy to be his date and they had been dating since then.

Between High School and College Cindy and Trunks were on and off until around two years ago. Trunks finally decided to break it off with Cindy once and for all and in Goten's opinion, it was the best decision Trunks ever made.

"Well, a lot of things have changed since then and we're busy-" Before Goten could even try to finish his sentence, Cindy cut him off. It was another one of her annoying traits.

"Busy doing what exactly? You're not too busy to philander around right now, but you're too busy to catch up with old friends, is that it?" The blond woman asked in annoyed and somewhat hurt tone.

Goten ran his hand across his face and sighed deeply. He never could stand that Blonde. Always wanting to be the center of attention. The only reason he put up with her was because of Trunks who dated her.

But now, it was another story entirely.

"What do you want, Cindy? I have work in the morning," Goten said in yet another low and dangerous tone. He hoped that she would leave him alone and let him go to bed already. It was late and he was annoyed.

"I want to know about Trunks. Do you think you can get a hold of Trunks for me? I want to talk to him" Cindy asked thinking about the particular lavender haired male. Trunks and I have some unfinished business. She could feel her desire for the male grow by just thinking about him.

"You know very well how you can get in touch with Trunks. Besides, I doubt he'd want to see you" Goten said in a disgusted tone. There was no way that Trunks would want to talk to her ever again let alone talk with her.

"Oh, why is that? Is he in love with someone?" Cindy probed in an annoying tone. She couldn't understand why her Trunks wouldn't want to see her and she wanted to know why he wouldn't want to.

"None of your damn business, Cindy! Trunks' personal life is no longer your business!" Goten snapped back at the female and he could feel his anger push up. How dare she come back and make as if everything was fine?!

"What was that?!"

"You heard me! You and Trunks are not together anymore. Moreover, as far as Trunks is concerned, his personal life is none of your business anymore! Now, goodnight" Goten said before he ended the call.

On the other side, Cindy was practically yelling in frustration and threw a tantrum. "Ooh, that man! I was never fond of Goten. The only reason I put with that idiot was because of Trunks!" Cindy thought loudly before falling down onto her queen-sized bed.

Goten threw his phone onto the cupboard and let out a frustrated sigh. "That woman-!" His eyes shot up to his door when he heard someone knock and Goku entered his room. Goten mentally cursed for his yelling.

"Who're you yelling at, Goten?"

"Oh, no one special... Just an old classmate from High School" Goten replied and hoped that his father would give up on asking the questions. He was tired and wanted to go sleep. His good mood had long gone.

"A Classmate?" Goku asked as he raised an eyebrow and wondered what type of classmate it was that made Goten so angry. It was seldom that Goten would lose his temper and it worried him slightly.

"Yeah, I mean, it's just a thing of the past" Goten said and tried to sound convincing. He let a small smile come across his lips but it never reached his eyes. Goku saw Goten's discomfort and nodded in understanding.

"Well, I hope you patch things up with your classmate soon" Goku said and Goten mentally snorted at the statement. There was no way he was ever get things right with Cindy. Goku turned towards the door and Goten snapped out of his thoughts.

"Goodnight, Dad"

"Goodnight, Goten!" Goku greeted cheerfully and exited the room. Goten sweat dropped slightly at his Father's sudden change in mood before he let out a deep sigh. He flopped back onto his bed and briefly closed his eyes. He silently wondered what life would be like without that woman.

As he got up to change into his pajamas, Goten hoped and prayed that Cindy Wu wouldn't pose a problem between Trunks and Laura. Considering that Trunks was dead set on Laura. He also knew very well that Trunks and Cindy were on and off again between High School and College.

I'll call Trunks on Monday and warn him about Cindy. Goten thought tiredly before he climbed into bed and finally dozed off into sleep.
