Trunks Briefs walked down the hall at Capsule Corporation in a very casual way. It would be a familiar sight, had it not been the fact he wasn't wearing a shirt and he had a towel wrapped on his neck.

"Geez, sometimes you behave like a teenager." Bulla, his twenty-year old sister, scolded him for his lack of good manners. "You better not greet our guests like this."

"Must you always be so annoying?" He said with annoyance and rolled his eyes at her. "Of course I'm not."

"Good. You don't want to make a fool out of yourself in front of Marron."

"Please, I don't make a fool out of myself in front of her or anyone for that matter."

"Sure you don't."

"What is that supposed to mean?"

"Nothing." She went back to her room to get ready for the party.

"You're the one to talk." He wasn't about to let it go like that.

"Excuse me?" Bulla came back to the hall. "I don't think I understand what you're implying."

"You say I make a fool out of myself in front of Marron and that may be true, but you're not any different than me."

"You're out of your mind, Trunks."

"I've seen the way you act around Goten. You're so in love with him."

"What have you been drinking?!"

"I haven't been drinking anything yet. And don't play dumb with me. You know exactly what I'm talking about."

"Fine, so maybe I have a crush on Goten." She crossed her arms in front of her chest. "And your point is…?"

"I have a proposal to make."

"A proposal?" She raised her eyebrows at him.

"We'll confess to them tonight."

"Okay, smart ass. How are we going to do that?"

"You can leave that to me. I have the perfect plan."

And just like that, he left for his own bedroom.

.

Bulla was fixing one of the pillows in the living room when the doorbell rang. She looked up, but didn't move. Her heart was pounding really hard on her chest for her to move. Luckily for her, Trunks came running from the kitchen to answer it.

"It must be Goten."

And indeed it was. Bulla could recognize his voice anywhere, and her heart started beating even faster.

"You made it!" Trunks' voice echoed all over the living room, in the usual cheerful way he speaks whenever his best friend is around.

"Like I would miss this party."

"This party or the chance to see someone?" He nudged Goten in the ribs and winked at him.

"I… I have no idea what you are talking about." The brunette replied, though he was fully aware his blushing cheeks gave him away.

"I can't tell which one is the worst, you or Bulla. It's clear as it can be that you have feelings for each other."

"Okay, that's not…" Goten immediately stopped talking and his eyes went wide when he spotted Bulla in the living room, staring right back at him. The look on her face told him she had heard everything, and he was... well, screwed. "Bulla, that's not…"

But she walked past him without saying a word and not bothering to look at him. The half-Saiyan dropped his head in frustration. He had some big making up to do later that night.

"Sucks to be you." Trunks didn't let the opportunity to tease his best friend pass, so he patted him on the shoulder.

"Fuck you."

"Well, well. Who would've thought Kakarot's son knew how to swear." A very familiar husky echoed behind the two hybrids, and Goten shivered for a moment. "V-Vegeta."

"Maybe I should tell him about it."

"He probably won't have a clue what it means."

"Ugh, you…"

"Let's go, Goten." Trunks pushed him towards the yard before things got uglier. "Don't mind my dad, he doesn't know when to stop sometimes."

"Sometimes?" Goten looked at him, who rolled his eyes.

"Fine, most of the time." The lavender-haired Saiyan started laughing and was immediately joined by his best friend.

.

About half an hour later, Marron and Pan had already arrived and they were ready to start partying. Bulla was making her way to the kitchen to grab some drinks for her best friends, and bumped into Trunks and Goten doing the same.

"Oh, sorry." She stopped almost immediately when she spotted them. "I can come back soon."

"That's okay, Bulla." Trunks said. "We were just leaving, right, Goten?"

"Uh…" The brunette half-Saiyan looked from his best friend to his love interest. "Actually, I…"

"I'm just here to grab a few energy drinks. I should be quick." She refused to make eye contact with Goten, but seemed shaken when he grabbed her elbow. That only lasted a couple of seconds, cause he immediately let go of her when he saw the death glare in her eyes. And she left as fast as she came in.

"Don't worry about it." The lavender-haired man put his hand on Goten's shoulder in a reassuring way. "She's just angry, but she will come around eventually. She has a lot from our father."

"She really does." Goten looked around, to make sure she wasn't anywhere near enough to hear them.

"She'll be talking to you again within time, trust me."

"Why are you saying this?" He raised his eyebrow. "You're up to something."

"I'm not up to anything."

"Of course you are. I've known you since we were babies. You can fool yourself all you want, but you can't fool me."

"Let's just go." Trunks talked it off. "The girls are probably waiting for us to start partying."

.

"We are playing spin the bottle." Bulla announced as she put an empty bottle in the center of the circle.

"Really, Bulla?" Pan complained with a frown. "That's such a fifth-grade game. Don't you think, Marron?"

"I… I…" The blonde was taken by surprise. "I guess."

"Pan, stop making her uncomfortable. It's annoying."

"Defending your girlfriend, that's so cute!"

"Stop it, Panny."

"Ah come on, uncle Goten. I hate it when you call me that."

"I know."

"So should we start?" Bulla ignored the uncle and nephew friendly bickering.


"Who wants to be the first?" Bulla asked, looking at all four faces.

"I think you should start it." Marron replied after drinking a sip of her drink. "You had the idea."

"Alright." She leaned forward and spun the bottle, that stopped in front of Trunks.

"Truth or dare, sister?"

"Truth."

"Okay. Is it true that you are in love with Goten?"

There was a complete silence in the living room, and both Pan and Marron looked at the blue haired woman. Goten was blushing as heavily as her and looked away.

"What kind of question is this, Trunks?"

"You said truth. So…?"

"I… I…" Bulla absolutely hated feeling ambushed, so she tried to think of a way out as fast as she could. "I want dare."

"What the hell, Bulla?" Pan protested loudly. "You can't switch like that."

"There was no rule on that." She argued back. "So I want dare."

"Fine." Trunks replied, rolling his eyes and a smirk appeared on his lips. "I dare you to kiss Goten. In front of everyone here."

"What the hell, dude?"

"Eww, gross!" The brunette woman looked like she was about to throw up. "I do not want to see my uncle kissing one of my best friends."

"I'm not kissing anyone."

"You have to, it's in the rules of the game you wanted to play."

"Ugh!" Bulla shot a death glare at her brother. She had no option but to do this. So she stood on her knees and looked at Goten. "We might as well just get over with it."

Pan closed her eyes and covered them with her hands when the blue haired woman started crawling towards her uncle. She stopped in front of him and looked right into his dark eyes. He found it the perfect opportunity to work things out with her – or at least, begin to. Goten held her chin in her hands and looked back at her before leaning towards her and pressing his lips against hers.

It was only meant to be a brief kiss, and Pan started hearing her friends complaining about it taking too long. She peeked through her fingers and was glad and relieved they had already pulled away from each other.

"I don't want to play this game anymore." She stood up and went to sit on the couch.

"Ah, come on, Pan. We've just begun."

"But if we ask questions or choose dares about kissing or confessing, there's no point in me playing."

"She has a point." Marron stood up as well, joining her. "I don't want to play it like this too."

"I'm sorry." Bulla said genuinely. "I didn't realize it wouldn't be cool for you."

"That's okay, Bulla." She smiled kindly at her. "We know you meant well."

"Thanks, Marron."

.

The wind gently disheveled Marron's blond hair when she walked into the balcony at Capsule Corp. The weather was really nice that night, and she leaned over to look at the scenario below her. She was so focused on it that barely seemed to register the door opening behind her.

"Hey. Sorry, I didn't know you were here." Trunks said apologetically when he walked in too. "If you want to be alone, I can come back another time."

"That's fine." She replied as she turned around to look at him. "This balcony is large enough for both of us. I don't mind it. Are you drinking in secret now? Will your parents get angry at you if they catch you drinking?"

"Not quite." He couldn't help but chuckle. "But I did want to drink in peace. I would've brought you one if I knew you were here."

"That's fine." She gave him a soft smile. "I've had enough drinking for one night."

"Right." Trunks walked to her. "Would you mind if I…"

"Absolutely not. Be my guest."

"Thanks." He sat down and drank a long sip from the bottle. "I'm sorry you didn't get to play our game earlier."

"That's fine." Marron assured him. "Spin the bottle isn't my favorite game to play anyway. Can I…?"

"Huh?" He glanced down at the bottle he was holding and handed it to her. "I didn't know you drank."

"I don't do it very often. Only when I feel overwhelmed or I've had enough. Or when I want to be brave."

"Brave?" Trunks raised his eyebrow at her. "Marron, you're one of the bravest women I know."

"You really think so?" She turned to look at him after putting the bottle beside her. She held her chin in her hands and looked into his eyes, just as blue as hers.

"I know so." He didn't know how he managed to say, with her proximity and his heart beating faster because of that.

Everything happened so fast he barely had time to process. All he knew was that her lips were pressed against his and her hand slid to the back of his neck, after wrapping his arm around her waist. It didn't take him long to tighten it around her and bring her close to him. Marron slightly parted her lips and let her tongue slid inside his mouth, momentarily catching him by surprise. But being skilled as he is sometimes, he quickly turned things around and their kiss grew hotter and more urgent.

.

Bulla had a large grin on her face. She had been hiding behind a wall and watched the whole scene in the balcony happening. She wanted to scream, but didn't want anyone to know she was there.

"Spying on your brother, princess?" Goten's voice echoed in her ears, causing her to shiver and blush before she turned to face him.

"No. Who do you think I am? I'm not Trunks' babysitter."

"Are you sure about that?"

"Shut up!"

"How long have they been there?"

"Who knows? They were already sitting there when I came. I wanted to go outside, but they started making out and ruined my plan."

"Can't say I don't feel jealous of them."

Bulla felt her face become red again and began to walk away, but the half-Saiyan man was faster and grabbed her wrist.

"What are you doing?" She looked from his hand wrapped around her wrist to his black eyes.

"I want to talk to you."

"We have nothing to talk about."

"Will you please let me explain myself to you and apologize?"

"Fine." She crossed her arms in front of her chest and started tapping with annoyance; her blue eyes locked in his. "You have a minute."

"What?" He was caught by surprise. "Are you serious?"

"Fifty seconds."

"Bulla, w-… Okay." He shook his head and started talking. "I'm sorry for what happened earlier."

"Thirty seconds."

"Uh… I didn't mean to say that. Obviously I feel something about you, but I just…"

"You just what?" She looked at him with her eyebrows raised.

"Please forgive me."

"Your time is up." Her tone was as hurtful as it could be. "See you around, Goten."

"Dare."

"What?" Bulla turned around and once again stared into his eyes. "What are you doing?"

"I chose dare. Come on, give me a dare."

"Goten, we're not playing it anymore."

"That's fine, I'll just give it myself then." He gave a few steps towards her; his heart beating faster by each step he took. Or maybe it was hers, he couldn't tell. "I dare myself to…"

"You know, you can't give yourself a dare." She spoke after she realized what he was doing. "It's against the rules."

"We're not playing the real spin the bottle game, so I can make up any rule I want."

"That's fair."

"So you want to give me a dare?"

"Uh… sure. I dare you to kiss me."

"Is that what you want?"

"Isn't it what you wanted me to dare you to do?"

"It was."

"So I don't understand the big deal. Are you going to kiss me or what?"

"Right."

Goten began walking towards her again, but she surprised him by jumping on his arms and wrapping hers around his neck. He held her closer to him after he recovered from his shock and their kiss became deeper and more passionate.

"I take it means you've forgiven me." He said after they pulled away from each other.

"That's right." She let their foreheads touch; her arms still around his neck.

"Thought so."
