I don't own Dragon Ball Z or any of the characters. This mess was all just created in my warped brain on late nights. It is solely the creation of an insomniac.

Vacation

Chapter 3

The Longest Day Part 2

The whole group walked in and was placed in a private room, where they all gorged themselves and ate in relative peace and quiet. Vegeta threw manners out the window after a while when Piccolo realized what the look in his Prince's eyes was. He didn't like to see that look of starvation in them. He gave Vegeta a nod telling him it was alright to just eat as he felt.

When they were done with their meal they all headed back to the Capsule house compound; none too soon for Vegeta. He was mentally exhausted after the day's ordeals. He was glad the day was ending. They all touched down in the back yard and Vegeta punched in the security code as they walked inside. The younger kids ran upstairs to play in Trunks' large play room. Gohan and Mirai disappeared into Mirai's bedroom to play video games. Piccolo, Vegeta, and Goku went directly into the family room to relax and unwind.

Goku turned the television on. It was on the horror channel. Vegeta rolled his eyes "Please, I saw enough of haunted houses today to last the rest of my life."

Goku flipped the channel again. There were a bunch of furry little creatures running around in burrows on this one. "Leave this on" Vegeta almost demanded, "I like this show". They settled in to watch "Home of the Meerkats" on World of Animals Channel. For some reason both Saiyan's loved animals; and animals flocked to them both.

After the third episode in the marathon Goku pulled the little bag of jelly beans from inside his gi. He smiled to himself. 49 different kinds in here; he began popping them into his mouth, one by one, while he enjoyed the show they were watching. He made a face as he took a gross tasting one out of his mouth half chewed. It was black, 'oh yuck, this tastes nasty!' he thought. He got up and walked into the kitchen to throw it in the waste can. He started to walk back to the family room when a streak of mischief hit him. He dug through the bag looking for another of those nasty tasting black ones; he found one. He looked up as he reached his destination and smiled his goofy grin staring at Vegeta, who was all relaxed and sunk into his favorite chair watching the show.

Goku nonchalantly walked back toward where he was sitting only going behind Vegeta's big comfy chair where he paused. Vegeta didn't suspect a thing. Goku grabbed him and promptly tried to shove the little black jelly bean in the Princes mouth. Vegeta clenched his mouth shut and wrapped his arm up around Goku. "What are you trying to do you idiot?" he said through clenched teeth.

Piccolo just sat there on the other side of them in shock. He wasn't sure whether to help his love or just stay out of it. Goku just laughed. "Aww come on Geta, just try it. You'll like the black ones."

"I don't want that disgusting thing" he said still with his teeth clenched shut. He turned his head away grabbing Goku's hand. The two of them struggled for a bit before the chair overturned making a loud racket all through the house. Goku wrestled Vegeta in a sort of weak headlock and kept trying to shove the little black jelly bean in the prince's mouth. "This… is the best tasting flavor… in the whole bag" Goku laughed as the two men struggled with one another.

Vegeta grabbed Goku's wrist managing to pull it away from his mouth and twisted his body enough to flip Goku to the side. "I hate black jelly beans… give me that thing!"

Mirai and Gohan heard the chair tip over downstairs and paused the game they were playing. "Did you hear that?" Mirai asked.

"Yeah. Come on let's go check it out." Gohan replied.

Both boys darted down the stairs. To see what the ruckus was only to be confronted with their dad's wrestling around on the floor like two overgrown kids. They watched for a while trying to decide exactly what was going on; Piccolo looked like he was doing the same thing.

"Get that thing away from me, Kakarot!" Vegeta said straining to keep away Goku's hand with the candy in it. They rolled over and knocked a lamp off the table.

Goku sounded as if he were straining to try and shove it in Vegeta's mouth while it was open. "Eat it Geta!"

"Fuck you Kakarot" He spit as Goku rubbed it back and forth across his teeth like a tooth brush.

Gohan and Mirai just stared; they'd never seen their dad's playing. They laughed at them rolling around on the floor. "I think they're actually playing, Mirai!"

"I know" Mirai laughed, "isn't it great!"

"Hey you two need to stop it or the kids are gonna come down here" Piccolo said trying to get them to stop.

Goku smeared it across Vegeta's cheek. It was sticky now and had carpet fuzz stuck to it. "You are going to pay for this, you big idiot!" He punched at Goku's hand sending the thing flying across the room to bounce off the wall somewhere.

Goku frowned, "Uh… no fair Geta" He reached inside his gi and pulled his stash of jelly beans out.

"Ahh!" Vegeta yelled and grabbed a hold of one side of it. "You're not getting another one!"

They struggled over the bag before ripping it apart sending jelly beans everywhere. Vegeta grabbed one of his own; it didn't matter what color it was. "Here! You eat it…" He kicked Goku off of him.

Goku stumbled backward. He grabbed a handful with an evil grin; if it was possible for him to have such a smile. "Time's up, Prince of all Saiyans!" He powered up to super Saiyan.

"HA! Kakarot, two can play at that game!" He powered up as well. He heated the one in his hand up till it was almost melted and threw it at Goku.

Goku moved out of the way fast to behind the overturned chair. The jelly bean impacted right in the center of Piccolo's forehead. Piccolo jumped up grabbing at his forehead and yelling. "AHHH… that burns!" He looked at Vegeta with an expression the prince couldn't read. He took a step forward. Vegeta took a step back. Piccolo lunged at him. Vegeta raced behind the chair with Goku. This was just all out war.

Piccolo dived at both of them throwing his weighted cloak off as he did. "You two are mine!" he growled. He still felt where the tiny glob of melted candy hit his face; a lavender mark was left on his forehead.

Gohan and Mirai were rolling with laughter as they watched the trio. Gohan wiped a tear from his eye, "This is way better than any reality show on television!"

"I've never seen dad act this way before!" Mirai said gasping for breath between hysterics.

Piccolo landed on both of them and smacked their heads together. "AHH…" they both yelled at the same time. "What is your head made of?" they asked in unison.

"I say both of your brains are made of jelly beans!" Piccolo growled with a huge fangy grin. He grabbed handfuls in each hand from the floor and smiled down at the two pinned Saiyans beneath him.

Vegeta went wide eyed. "No, Piccolo don-" he didn't get it all out of his mouth before the giant warrior class Namekian shoved a handful into his lover's mouth. He put his hand over just his mouth so he couldn't spit them out, and did the same thing to Goku. He smiled triumphantly down at both of them.

"Do you two promise to clean up this mess if I let go?" he asked them both. They nodded. He let go of them.

Vegeta promptly spit everything in his mouth out. Mirai and Gohan stopped laughing instantly and ran back up stairs slamming the bedroom door behind them. "That wasn't fair Namek!" Vegeta boomed.

Goku laughed. "I don't know, I kinda thought it was funny." He picked up the chair and put it upright as he let go of the super Saiyan state. Vegeta picked up the lamp and put it back on the table, while Piccolo zapped away all of the little bits of candy on the floor.

Goku smiled and stretched. "I think I'm gonna hit the hay, guys. I'll have Goten, Trunks, and Marron all get ready for bed." He yawned deeply, and headed off up the stairs.

Piccolo sat back down on the sofa and patted the seat next to him smiling at Vegeta. 'Finally, we can have some peace and quiet together.' He thought with a big outward smile. Vegeta was reading his mind and walked over to the sofa and slowly lowered himself down, cuddling up next to the Namekian so they could watch some more of the Meerkat marathon.

Piccolo ran his fingers through Vegeta's hair absentmindedly as they looked at the program. The Prince was nuzzling against his side as he watched and before he realized it his hands had wandered beneath his gi. He danced his fingers across his lover's smooth cool skin. It never failed to amaze him just how cool the Namekian's skin always was. He gave a little shiver thinking about it.

Piccolo looked down at his little prince concerned. "Are you getting cold, baby?"

Vegeta nodded slightly still watching his television program. Piccolo did a scan of the house. The young kids were all in bed but awake and talking and giggling with each other. Gohan and Mirai were wide awake playing video games in Mirai's bedroom. Goku was… snoring, but sleeping in one of the guest rooms.

"Maybe you should go to bed." He smiled and swept his fingers over the small Saiyan's beautiful face. "I don't want you to be cold and sleepy down here just for me." He kissed his Prince's eyes.

Vegeta looked up at his massive green lover. "I don't want you to be left down here cold and alone either." He said kissing Piccolo's fingertips. "So, how about if you come and sleep in my room, instead of in here?"

"You sure you're okay with that? I don't want you to feel pushed into anything." He smiled and caressed Vegeta's cheek.

Vegeta breathed lightly across Piccolo's hand answering him "I wouldn't ask you if I wasn't sure what I wanted Namek." He looked deep into Piccolo's ebony eyes and found his own desires reflected in them.

Piccolo reached for the remote and turned the power off to the television. He turned his attention to Vegeta and kissed him deeply. Kami, the Prince always did a number on his emotions whenever he was near him. Piccolo stared into his Prince's eyes while running his hands deep into his silky hair. He scooped Vegeta up into his arms; Vegeta leaned against his strong shoulders and let himself be carried up to his room. Piccolo just felt safe to him, he truly relaxed when he was close by. He could be weak and the Namekian would not think less of him; and at the end of the day after being strong for everyone else, he needed to be uke for his massive and protective green seme. He kissed Piccolo's chest. 'I wish life was a little different, green man. I would come to you in the space of a heartbeat.' He thought as he was carried up the stairs.

He scanned the children's room as they passed by. Marron was starting to drift off but the boys were still chattering quietly. Mirai and Gohan were still engrossed in video games, though Mirai took notice of being scanned but ignored it when he realized it was both his dad and Piccolo who passed by the closed door; he didn't say anything to Gohan. It wasn't that Vegeta didn't trust his sons with telling them how he felt about the Namekian; he just didn't want to upset them or to think that he was disrespecting their mother. He just needed some things their mother just couldn't give to him. It was just in their Saiyan blood to also feel the need to mate with another male warrior. Sometimes he didn't understand how Kakarot could stand it.

Piccolo reached Vegeta's bedroom door and Vegeta opened it with his still sore tail; he winced a little. Piccolo looked down at him. "I'll take care of it in a minute baby." He smiled softly at his beautiful Little Prince.

Vegeta smiled up at him "I can manage it's not necessary you know" he whispered into his green man's ear. He kissed the tip of it running his tongue around the edge.

Piccolo's breath caught at the feel of Vegeta's tongue. It was always so warm and soft, much like a dog's feels when they lick you. He stepped inside the room and quietly pushed the door shut with his foot; Vegeta flipped the lock with his tail. They were alone at last.

Piccolo laid Vegeta down on the bed admiring him in the bright moonlight shining indirectly in on him through the window. The pale light made his skin glow. Piccolo gazed at him from head to toe before lying down next to him.

"Just what are you looking at, Green Man?" Vegeta asked gazing back at him as he lay there only inches away.

"You, Little Prince. You are just beautiful to me; your skin glows in the moonlight." He leaned forward to kiss the Prince as he ran his clawed hands along his sides and over his feminine hips. He looked into Vegeta's black eyes as he kissed first his lips lightly, then he kissed his chin, then his nose, and then each of his eyes.

Vegeta moaned softly loving the attention he was getting. He slipped his Namekian Prince's gi from his chest and shoulders and ran his fingertips over the smooth pink and green skin of his shoulders and arms. Piccolo's strength was nothing to sneeze at, and feeling the other's muscles beneath his hands made him shudder with desire.

Piccolo blinked and looked at him concerned and again asked, "Are you cold, Little Prince?"

Vegeta looked into his soft black eyes and answered, "Not with you on top of me, Green Man." He pulled his lover closer and touched his nose to one of his mate's antenna; then his kissed it lightly, while touching the other with his small hand and fingers. He ran his soft tongue across it before gently taking it into his mouth to suck on it.

Piccolo couldn't help but moan as the Saiyan began touching and playing with the most sensitive part of his own body. He picked up Vegeta's tail and ran it across his face. It was silky like cat fur. He felt the rough spot towards the tip where the door had been slammed on it. He moved his lips along its length kissing it when he reached the sore spot. He licked the soreness away from his soft little uke prince, healing any damage that was done.

Vegeta began to purr deeply but very quietly. It was something that only the Namek had ever managed to make him do. Piccolo pulled the shirt right off of him and Vegeta untied his Green Man's sash; which made his gi fall loose. Piccolo slipped his purple clothing off completely and gently kicked it onto the floor; he could easily have zapped their clothing off, but it would have defeated the sensual nature of the act. He wanted to take his time making love to his beloved Little Prince tonight.

He kissed Vegeta's chest slowly working his way lower till he reached the first button on the jeans he was wearing. He undid it with his right hand at the same time he lightly brushed his lover's nipple with a claw on his left hand. A shudder went through the Saiyan prince and a groan escaped his lips as he stiffened. Piccolo smiled slightly, his prince was aroused. 'He's exactly where I want him to be." He thought as he undid another of the buttons on his jeans. He rolled his lover's nipple between his thumb and index finger making Vegeta moan louder and squirm under him.

Vegeta reached his hands down and gently fondled his Green Man's antenna extracting a moan and a violent shudder from him. 'Kami, Piccolo if you only realized how much I want this tonight. You are always my savior' he thought as Piccolo undid another button. His jeans were very tight by now as aroused and as hard as he was. He gently held Piccolo's antenna, one in each hand, and gently rubbed his thumbs in circles over the top of them.

Piccolo groaned, immensely turned on by the prince's actions, as he undid the last button on Vegeta's jeans. He slipped his hands inside and rubbed his lover through his boxers before he pulled off his jeans in one swift action and then slowly tugged his boxers down and off his body. He gazed at his softly glowing prince's perfectly sculpted naked body in the moonlight and lay down next to him again. He covered Vegeta's mouth with his own and kissed him deeply, letting their tongues slide against one another, both moaning quietly at the feel of the other.

Piccolo wrapped his hand around Vegeta's stiffened member and slowly began to stroke it causing his prince to press up against his hand as he was touched and rubbed by his massive green lover. He broke their kiss and nipped the prince's ear whispering, "Turn over, baby."

Vegeta understood what he meant; he flipped onto all fours and lowered his head to the bed submitting himself to his massive, strong seme. He pulled open the drawer on his night stand with his tail and wrapped it around a small bottle of lube giving it to the Namekian who was intently running his hands down the Saiyans bare, finely chiseled, back and shoulders. He touched Piccolo's face with his tail once before coiling it around his waist again getting it out of the Namek's way.

Piccolo wrapped his hand around the little bottle of lube and fed it just the tiniest bit of kai warming it before squeezing a small amount onto his fingers. He touched Vegeta and watched as a shiver ran over his back and his tail bristle slightly around his small waist. He slid a finger into him; Vegeta inhaled and groaned at how exquisite Piccolo's hands were.

Piccolo wrapped his free hand around Vegeta's hardened appendage again stroking him as he pushed his fingers deep inside before pulling nearly all the way out listening to his small lover whine and moan. Piccolo was very stiff and was beginning to pant watching his Little Prince squirm and listening to all of the little noises he was making. He stopped what he was doing and squeezed some of the lube onto himself; his lover gave a quiet whine of protest.

Piccolo chuckled softly, and kneeled behind him straddling the smaller Prince. He leaned down over him nuzzled the back of his neck and behind his ear whispering. "You may live with another, but you belong to me Little Prince." He nipped his neck.

Vegeta managed to look up at his seme from the side. "If life were different, Green Man, I would proudly stand at your side" he whispered.

Piccolo's eyes were large and dilated when he whispered "I love you" as he slowly pushed himself into the smaller man. Vegeta gave a high pitched whine as his Namekian lover took claim over his body.

At this point both men gave into their animalistic instincts. Piccolo bit Vegeta at the base of the neck growling low in his throat and slammed down hard against his hips. Vegeta arched his back, also growling, giving his mate the perfect angle of penetration causing him to groan and grunt as he was ridden hard and fast.

The Namek gripped the Saiyan's shoulders still propped on his elbows and kept the prince pinned underneath him; his thoughts drifting with the action, more an animal's feelings than thoughts, 'possession… desire… lust… urgency…'. He ground his hips against his mates barely pulling out at all about to mark his prince. Somehow he managed to push just a tiny bit deeper into his captured mate and let go of the lust he'd built up, since this morning, and roared as he came into Vegeta's tight hot body.

He stayed in position for a moment catching his breath and collecting his thoughts then he lay down on his side and pulled Vegeta up close to him, cuddling him close. Vegeta kissed his hands. "Green Man, you are my life."

"Little Prince, you are mine. I don't know what I would do without you." Piccolo swept his fingers through his hair brushing the few stray strands that had managed to get into his face. Vegeta shivered again. Piccolo whispered, "You're cold again aren't you." It wasn't a question but a statement. Planet Vegeta was a hot world with a deep red sky and a giant star. The Saiyans had evolved to tolerate extreme heat, which meant that when it was cold or even just chilly, they got cold and felt as if they were freezing before everyone else. Winters on this planet were hard on them, and though it wasn't winter now, Piccolo was always worrying if his love was cold. He pulled a blanket over them and scooted him closer lending him the heat of his body.

Vegeta's teeth chattered a little, "I love you, Green Man" he didn't give sentiments often, but when he did it was genuine.

"I love you too. Shhh now… just stay close and I'll help you get warm, baby." He kissed his head lovingly and raised his kai a little to warm him faster. "You should have told me you were this cold sooner."

"I-I-I was preoccupied with other things." The prince chattered. He smiled, and snuggled down under the blanket until just his nose and eyes were sticking out. He shivered against his lover, "Piccolo, I'm kind of hungry again."

Piccolo chuckled softly to himself. "Did I make you work up an appetite?"

"Haha… you're just hilarious." He said sarcastically a slight blush reddening his face.

The green warrior just laughed softly. "Calm down, Little Prince. I'll go and get you some food, just tell me what you want."

"I don't care, anything is fine." He said in a muffled voice sinking further under the blanket.

"Alright, anything it is." He said getting up and zapping himself a pair of baggy loose purple pajama pants. "I'll be back in a few minutes." He smiled at the mound curled up in the center of the bed and slipped out the door.

He walked quietly past Trunks' bedroom scanning the kids as he passed. They were all asleep. He smiled and kept walking, he scanned Mirai's bedroom. They were both still up but now they were watching internet videos; he shook his head. He walked past the guest room that Goku had been sleeping in. He raised a brow finding Goku was not in there anymore. He went on down the stairs and into the kitchen. There he found the other full blooded Saiyan with his head stuck in the refrigerator.

"Hi, Piccolo." He said not looking up.

"Heh" Piccolo chuckled, "Being hungry in the middle of the night must be a Saiyan thing."

Goku looked up and snickered at his friend. "Vegeta hungry too?"

Piccolo blushed a little, "Yeah. Maybe you can help me; what would he want to eat?"

Goku reached in and took out a plate of leftover roast beef from the night before. "Probably some of this."

"Fine, you take half and give me the other half." Piccolo said smiling. He stuck the whole thing in the new larger microwave and sat down at the table with Goku.

"This week is going to be hard on Vegeta." Goku said sipping at a glass of pineapple juice.

"He's already starting to show signs of it." Piccolo said shaking his head. "I'm glad you're going to stay here and help out. It should be a little easier since Marron will be going home tomorrow."

"Hey, no problem." Goku said draining the juice from his glass.

Just then the timer on the microwave went off. Piccolo stood and walked over to it. It looked as if it were heated through, but then he supposed it didn't really matter, except maybe to Goku, because he knew Vegeta would eat it raw given the opportunity.

At the same time as the microwave binged, Mirai and Goten burst through the doors. Piccolo just stared at them. "What, do all Saiyans have to eat at the same time in the middle of the night?"

Gohan looked at Piccolo and smirked, "Haha, you're really funny, you know that Piccolo?"

"We're starving!" Mirai said with a smile. "Where's dad?"

"Waiting on something to eat." He looked at the boy and answered flatly; telling without saying to not press it further. He took the half of the roast beef he was taking to Vegeta and turned to leave. "I bid you all good night." And he slipped out the kitchen door heading for his waiting Prince upstairs.

Mirai and Gohan just blinked staring at the kitchen door. "Good night" Gohan said a little too late. They both turned around and looked at Goku. "He doesn't have to try and hide it around us, Dad." Gohan said. "We both already know, but we're not going to say anything to anyone about it."

"My Dad is actually happy when he's around Piccolo. I wonder why he just doesn't come out and tell me about the relationship he has with him?" Mirai wondered.

It was Goku's turn to speak, "How long have you two known about it?"

"For a while now." Mirai said poking his head in the fridge. "I would never in a million years say anything to mom here or my own mother in the future."

"Well," Goku thought aloud, "Maybe he thinks you'd be mad at him if you knew." 'After all this is Vegeta we're talking about here,' he thought to himself. "Maybe you should sit down and talk to him about it sometime, Mirai." Having said his piece, he began shoveling food into his mouth.

Mirai came back from the fridge with a big try of sandwiches. "Alright!" Gohan smiled looking at the large try of food.

"Thanks Goku, I'll do what you suggested. Good night." Mirai said.

"Yeah, Good night Dad." Gohan smiled waving to his dad as the two teens disappeared back through the kitchen door.

"Night" Goku replied not looking away from his food.

When Piccolo re-entered the room Vegeta stuck his head out from under the blankets and looked at him. "It's about time," He said a little sarcastically.

Piccolo just chuckled, knowing his lover was just really hungry right now and didn't mean to sound temperamental. "You're welcome, your majesty." He gave him the plate of food and kissed his forehead lovingly.

Vegeta had slightly better table manners than Goku, but he still at close to the same amount of food. Piccolo was fascinated by how anyone could eat so much; but he knew it was because they were powerhouses and he also knew nobody in the universe was remotely as strong or powerful as they were. They were like kids with ADHD on steroids when it came to how much energy they had.

Piccolo blinked out of his daze when Vegeta handed him the empty plate back. "Thank you, Green Man" He smiled in a better mood now that he'd eaten something.

Piccolo smiled back, "You're welcome baby." He took the plate and headed back down stairs as Vegeta slid back under the blankets and curled up into a ball in the middle of the bed.

Piccolo slipped silently back downstairs. No one was stirring in the rest of the house, the kids were asleep, the teens were back in their room and Goku had gone back to sleep. He went into the kitchen and washed up the plate and put it away; then he returned to his lover.

He quietly came inside the bedroom and slid under the covers, wrapped his arms around Vegeta and pulled him up out of his comfy nest ball. Vegeta moaned at being disturbed, but quieted down again just as quickly when his Green Man pulled him close to rest against his skin. Piccolo kissed the back of his head and they lay curled against one another as they drifted into a soft sleep finally bringing an end to what Vegeta felt was the longest day of his life.
