After work Trunks didn't feel like going to his empty apartment so he stopped by his parent's home. Coming in through the sliding glass door he made his way into the living room to see a surprising sight. His parents snuggled together on the couch watching TV. They both looked up at him. "Um I don't mean to interrupt your romantic moment but we need to talk."
"Sure sweetie so what's on your mind?" asked Bulma.
"I think I've chosen a life mate."
"Oh Trunks that's wonderful," his mother smiled.
"I don't know. It think it's a bit more complicated then that mom."
"So, who is it?" she asked.
"Goten," he said with his eyes on the floor. A silence filled the room, and he couldn't stand it. He looked to see his parents weren't surprised by what he said. "You two knew, didn't you?"
"Honey we can't very well tell you who you're destined to be with."
"Why not?"
"If a saiyan is told who they are meant to be with before they realize it themselves, then they can't mate with the saiyan chosen for them."
"That's just ridiculous father."
"No, it's something that is ingrained in every saiyan."
"Well that sucks but what about Goten. When will he realize that he's destined to be my life mate?"
"Well that's up to him isn't it," said Vegeta, "but what I'm about to say is important. I'm only going to say this once. You can't tell him you know that you're his life mate."
"If I do, I can't mate with him." Trunks became frustrated. "You know besides being half saiyan I'm half human to."
"And your point is son?" asked Vegeta.
"Well do saiyans just mate to procreate or—
"You want to know if love is involved." Trunks nodded. "I've never seen it. Usually the sex is about lust, passion, and creating an heir.
"Dad."
"Yes Trunks," he said with curiosity.
"I—I don't think I'm just destined to be with Goten. You see I'm in love with him to." He saw his father's eyes widened. "Uh—um father are you—?"
"Two saiyans in love," said Vegeta. "Impossible."
"I don't know Vegeta," said Bulma. "There are such things as rare cases in some situations."
"Yeah like the prince of all saiyans falling in love with an earth woman," said Trunks as his mother smiled.
"Just curious son when did you know you loved Kakarott's brat?"
"Well when mom brought me over to Chichi's place to tell her she was pregnant with her second child."
"You knew before he was fully grown inside the harpy." Trunks nodded. "That's incredible." Trunks smirked at his father's surprise. It wasn't often that his father was caught off guard.
"I know this sounds strange, but I think he's special in some way," said Trunks.
