'Ring...Ring...Ring'
Goten rubbed his eyes, groaning as he reached over to his phone to see it ringing with the name 'Trunks (ɔ◔‿◔)ɔ ♥' at the top of the screen. He sighed, picking it up on its fifth ring. "Hello?" He managed to croak out.
"Goten! I overheard my Mom calling my Dad. There's some danger. You need to come down to Capsule Corp so we can check it out together!" Trunk said excitedly through the phone. If Goten was being honest, he didn't really want to see Trunks right now, given the state of his feelings but the thought of fighting did intrigue him.
"I don't think my Mom would let me." Was all Goten could think of to say.
"Just makeup an excuse."
"Mkay." Goten replied tiredly.
"Love you." Trunks said jokingly but was met with silence. "Say it back." Goten could almost see the pout on Trunks' face.
"Love you too." Trunks smiled at that, hoping that Goten was smiling too. "Bye." Goten quickly hung up the phone, stretching to properly wake himself up.
He made his way quietly down the hallway of his home, hoping to slip past without catching his mother's attention. As he approached the living room, he heard the sound of Chi-Chi cooking.
Heart pounding, Goten paused, unsure of what to do. Trunks' insistence echoed in his mind. He couldn't afford to waste time; lives could be at stake. Without thinking too much about the consequences, he approached Chi-Chi.
"Mom," Goten began tentatively, trying to sound casual, "Trunks just called. He wants to see me. Said it's important."
Chi-Chi turned to him, concern etched on her face. "Is everything okay? You two haven't spoken for a while."
Goten hesitated, not wanting to lie outright but also knowing he couldn't reveal the true reason. "Yeah, I... I think so. Just something he wanted to talk about."
Chi-Chi studied him for a moment, her motherly instincts sensing something was amiss. Finally, she sighed softly, placing a hand on his shoulder. "Alright, Goten. Just be careful, okay? You were quite hurt by his actions the other day."
Goten nodded gratefully, nervousness washing over him as he turned to leave. He hurried out of the house and took to the sky, flying as fast as he could towards Capsule Corp. As he flew, thoughts raced through his mind. He wondered what Trunks had discovered, why Bulma seemed so concerned, and whether they were truly prepared for whatever danger lay ahead. But amidst the worry and uncertainty, one thought remained clear—Trunks needed him, and he couldn't let his... friend? Face this alone. A certain feeling of guilt rushed through him as he thought about how selfish he was to have the idea that maybe today was the day Trunks would express his love back.
He knew Trunks loved him, all friends love each other. But he wanted Trunks to like him, to *want* him, to yearn for him in the way Goten did.
Arriving at Capsule Corp, Goten landed gracefully near the entrance. Trunks was waiting for him, looking tense but determined.
"Goten, you made it," Trunks said, relief evident in his voice.
"Yeah," Goten replied, his breath slightly taken away by how good Trunks looked when he was worried. "What's going on, Trunks?"
Trunks hesitated for a moment before answering, his expression grave. "I overheard her talking about some energy my Dad and yours felt from Planet Beerus."
Goten frowned, his senses on high alert. "What kind of trouble?"
Trunks shook his head, his blue hair swaying slightly, distracting Goten. "I'm not sure yet. But I thought we should check it out together. You know, like old times."
Despite the seriousness of the situation, a small smile tugged at Goten's lips. "Yeah, like old times."
Goten and Trunks crouched behind a large bush, peering through its dense foliage as they watched Bulma and Gohan ahead. The duo seemed tense, exchanging urgent whispers while Bulma swiftly tossed a capsule onto the ground. With a flash, it transformed into a sleek aircraft.
Trunks nudged Goten softly, sending a shiver down Goten's spine. "We need to follow them," he whispered urgently.
Goten nodded, looking over to the plane so he didn't have to meet Trunks' eyes. "Yeah, let's go. But we have to be sneaky."
They quietly ascended into the air, careful to stay low and out of sight as they trailed the aircraft.The plane soared through the sky, its engines roaring as Bulma maneuvered it away from the city towards a desolate wasteland. Goten and Trunks followed closely behind, their hearts pounding with excitment. As they landed behind a cluster of rocks, they peered out cautiously to assess the situation.
Goku, Vegeta, Whis, and Beerus stood in a loose formation, their eyes trained on a figure emerging from the shadows. A muscular man with brown hair stepped forward confidently, his presence commanding attention.
"I am Android 12," the man declared with a chilling certainty. "And I am here to rid this Universe of its inferior race of warriors." Sounds of disbelief echoed among the group. Android 12? The revelation shook them to the core. Aside from the androids they knew, all other androids were believed to be destroyed or inactive. The appearance of a new threat was unsettling and raised countless questions about where Android 12 came from and how powerful he might be.
Goku exchanged a look with Vegeta, both Saiyans on different pages about this threat. Whis maintained his calm demeanor, observing Android 12 with curiosity, while Beerus simmered with restrained anger at the audacity of this new threat interrupting his meal. Goten and Trunks remained hidden behind the rocks, listening intently as the situation unfolded. Vegeta, his arms crossed and a smirk playing on his lips, couldn't help but scoff. "Another android? We've dealt with plenty of those in the past. This should be easy."
Goku, however, wore a grave expression, his eyes narrowed as he studied Android 12. "I don't know, Vegeta. Something feels different about this one."
Vegeta raised an eyebrow, "What are you talking about, Kakarot? It's just another tin can. I'll crush him like the rest."
Goku shook his head slightly. "It's not just that. There's an energy about him, something unsettling."
Whis, who had been observing quietly, interjected with his characteristic calmness. "Goku may have a point, Vegeta. Android 12's presence here seems purposeful, not random."
Beerus, standing beside them with arms crossed and a frown creasing his brow, added gruffly, "Hmph, I don't like surprises. If this android wants trouble, he'll get it."
Goten leaned closer to Trunks, whispering under his breath, "Do you think my Dad's right? Android 12 seems pretty confident."
Trunks nodded, eyes fixed on the unfolding confrontation. "Yeah, something about him feels... calculated. We need to stay on guard."
Meanwhile, Android 12 continued to speak, outlining his plans with a chilling certainty. The Saiyans exchanged wary glances, preparing themselves for the battle ahead. Vegeta's confidence remained undaunted, but Goku's cautious demeanor set the tone for the gravity of the situation.
"We can't underestimate him," Goku murmured, his voice barely audible over the wind rustling through the wasteland. Goten and Trunks exchanged a glance, silently agreeing. They tightened their grips on the rocks, readying themselves for whatever challenge Android 12 would bring. The air crackled with anticipation, the stage set for a showdown.
"Well if you're too scared Kakarot just say so." Vegeta turned Super Saiyan in an instant. "I can deal with this easily."
Android 12 stood confidently as Vegeta stepped forward, a smirk on his face and his muscles tensed for battle. "Ah you think you can beat me?"
With a swift motion, Vegeta lunged at Android 12, unleashing a flurry of punches and kicks. Android 12, however, moved with surprising speed and agility, effortlessly dodging Vegeta's attacks.
"Is that all you've got, Saiyan?" Android 12 taunted, his voice laced with amusement as he countered with powerful strikes of his own. The force of his blows sent Vegeta staggering backward, his pride wounded. Goten and Trunks watched in stunned silence from their hidden vantage point.
Goten's eyes widened as he whispered to Trunks, "I've never seen your Dad get pushed back like this."
Trunks nodded, his brow furrowed in concern. "Me neither. Android 12 is no ordinary opponent."
Meanwhile, Vegeta gritted his teeth, refusing to back down. He charged again, powering up to Super Saiyan Blue and unleashing a devastating energy blast. Android 12 smirked, deflecting the attack effortlessly.
"You're persistent, I'll give you that," Android 12 remarked casually, his demeanor still calm and collected despite the escalating battle. Vegeta growled in frustration, intensifying his assault. The two exchanged fierce blows, each testing the other's limits. However, Android 12's strength and speed seemed inexhaustible, and with a sudden burst of power, he delivered a devastating kick that sent Vegeta flying into the ground, creating a deep crater upon impact. Goten gasped, his hands gripping the rocks tightly as he watched his father crash down.
Trunks clenched his fists, his heart racing with worry. "Dad!"
"Trunks?!" Bulma looked over to where she heard the voice and saw Trunks and Goten. "What are you two doing here?!"
"Uh..." Trunks managed to say before they both ducked behind the rock again. "Okay let's just join them." They made themselves known, to which Goku just smiled at them before looking back at the fight.
"I believe we're done here," Android 12 said calmly, his gaze sweeping over the stunned Saiyans. Vegeta struggled to his feet, his pride wounded but his determination burning brighter than ever.
"We're not done here" he spat defiantly.
Android 12 merely chuckled, his expression unreadable behind his confident facade. With a final glance at the defeated Saiyan prince, he shot a Ki blast knocking Vegeta back down.Goten and Trunks exchanged a look of disbelief, their minds reeling from the shocking turn of events. The reality of Android 12's power and the threat he posed settled heavily upon them, stirring a deep sense of unease and determination to protect their loved ones and their world.
Android 12 stood confidently amidst the aftermath of his brief but decisive skirmish with Vegeta. The Saiyans, gathered cautiously around Vegeta as Android 12 surveyed them with a cold, calculating gaze.
"I was sent here to eliminate the remaining Saiyans," Android 12 declared calmly, his voice cutting through the tense silence like a blade. "And it seems I've found them all in one place."
Goten and Trunks exchanged wide-eyed glances, their hearts sinking at Android 12's chilling revelation. The weight of his words settled heavily upon them as they realized the gravity of the threat they faced.
"Trunks..." Goten spoke quietly and Trunks looked over at him, instantly recognising the panic in Goten's eyes. Trunks quickly grabbed his hand.
"I won't let you die." Trunks said seriously, giving Goten's hand a squeeze. "Trust me." He whispered. Goten managed a small smile and Trunks smiled back.
Goku stepped forward, his expression a mix of concern and determination. "Who sent you? And why target us now?"
Android 12 remained impassive, his gaze unwavering. "Those details are irrelevant. My mission is clear."
"You won't be able to eliminate the Universe's greatest race of warriors." Vegeta declared.
Android 12 chuckled softly, his demeanor still composed despite the escalating tension. "Very well then. Let's see how long you can last against me."
With a sudden burst of speed, Android 12 launched himself into the air, positioning himself for a more advantageous point. Goku, Vegeta, and Gohan tensed, preparing themselves for the impending battle. Goten and Trunks watched with a mixture of fear and determination. This android was unlike any they had faced before—calculated, powerful, and driven by a singular mission to eradicate their kind. The realization spurred them into action, their resolve strengthening as they braced themselves for the daunting task ahead. As the battle against Android 12 began in earnest, energy crackled in the air, the wasteland echoing with the clash of titans. Goten and Trunks watched, their hearts pounding with each explosive exchange. They knew their role in this fight was crucial, not just as warriors but as protectors of their family, friends, and the future of their world... and of each other. With each passing moment, the stakes grew higher, the outcome uncertain. Goten and Trunks knew they had to find a way to contribute, to support their loved ones in this struggle against a formidable adversary who threatened everything they held dear. As Android 12 and the Saiyans battled fiercely, the fate of the Saiyan race hung in the balance. Gohan, driven by both determination and concern for his family, was the first to engage.
With a burst of speed, Gohan closed the distance between himself and Android 12, landing a series of rapid punches and kicks. Android 12 initially seemed unfazed, taking the blows with a stoic expression.
"So this is Saiyan power," Android 12 remarked coolly, his voice carrying a hint of acknowledgment. In response, he swiftly countered Gohan's assault with a concentrated blast of energy, sending Gohan hurtling backward through the air, crashing into the ground with a resounding impact.
"Gohan!" Goku shouted, his worry evident as he darted forward, aiming to catch Android 12 off guard. With lightning-fast reflexes, Android 12 pivoted, effortlessly evading Goku's attack.Goku gritted his teeth, his eyes narrowing with focus.
Meanwhile, Trunks clenched his fists, his mind racing with strategies to assist.
"Goten, we need to do something. Android 12 is too strong for them to handle alone. Maybe we could fuse?"
Vegeta, catching wind of their conversation amidst the chaos of battle, interrupted sharply, "Fusion? Absolutely not. You two idiots cannot fail right now." Trunks and Goten exchanged a glance, their determination faltering momentarily under Vegeta's stern gaze. They understood the gravity of his words—the fate of their world hung in the balance, and any misstep could mean disaster.
"But Dad, we might not have another opportunity," Trunks argued, his voice tinged with urgency.
Vegeta's expression remained serious. "No."
Trunks nodded reluctantly in agreement, steeling himself for the continuation of the battle. "We fight as one anyway, even apart." They bumped arms before launching themselves in the air above Android 12.
As Android 12's onslaught intensified, the Saiyans found themselves pushed to their limits. Gohan, Vegeta, and Goku engaged in a desperate fist fight, trading blows with the android while Trunks and Goten coordinated an aerial assault. Trunks and Goten hovered above the battlefield, their hands glowing with concentrated energy. Trunks unleashed a powerful Buster Cannon, while Goten channeled his energy into a Kamehameha wave. The twin blasts streaked towards Android 12 with explosive force, aiming to overwhelm him with sheer power. Android 12 reacted swiftly, erecting a barrier of energy that absorbed the brunt of the attacks. The blasts dissipated harmlessly against his defenses, leaving Android 12 relatively unscathed.
"Is that all you've got?" Android 12 taunted, his voice resonating with contempt as he redirected his attention towards Trunks and Goten who had landed on the floor. Their coordinated assault had failed to even scratch the android's formidable defenses. Trunks and Goten exchanged a worried glance, their hearts sinking as Android 12 focused his gaze on them. The gravity of the situation weighed heavily upon them—all their efforts had barely fazed the android, and now they stood alone against his relentless power. Goku, Vegeta, and Gohan, recovering from the aftermath of Android 12's devastating blast, struggled to regain their footing. Goku and Vegeta lay sprawled on the ground, their bodies wracked with pain from the direct impact of being too close to the energy blast. Gohan had been flung far away from the battlefield by Android 12's powerful strike, leaving Trunks and Goten vulnerable and exposed from the attack, barely able to hold themselves up.
Trunks grinded his jaw, his mind racing for a solution. "What do we do now, Goten?"
Goten gritted his teeth, his determination burning brighter than ever. "We can't give up. We have to keep fighting!"
Android 12 smirked confidently, his aura pulsating with menacing energy. "It seems your little display of power was nothing but a waste of time and energy," he sneered, his gaze narrowing on Trunks and Goten.
Trunks stepped forward, his voice steady despite the rising panic. "We're not done yet. A Saiyan never gives up."
Android 12's eyes glinted with amusement. "Bold words from children," he remarked dismissively, raising his hand, "Say... aren't you two only half Saiyans? How filthy for them to breed with different races."
Trunks clenched his fists. "You're nothing but a stupid fucking robot."
"Always the apes with a dirty mouth. One of the many reasons you must be eliminated." With his power surging, the android aimed a devastating energy blast directly at the weakened Trunks. . Every muscle in his body screamed with exhaustion, and his mind raced in desperation as he tried to evade the incoming blast.
But the weight of the fight bore down on him, leaving him frozen in place. His limbs felt heavy, his movements sluggish. As the blast surged closer, time seemed to slow to a crawl, each second stretching out agonizingly. Goten, felt a surge of determination despite his dwindling energy reserves, he could not allow the boy he loved most in this world to perish in such a terrible way.
"FWSH!"
Trunks's eyes widened in horror as he watched Goten materialise in front of him. "Goten, no!" His voice cracked with desperation as he tried to reach out, knowing he couldn't stop what was about to happen. Goten turned around, giving Trunks his signature innocent smile for the last time. The energy surged forward with unstoppable force, engulfing Goten in a blinding cascade of light and power.
"Goten!" Trunks yelled out but it was too late, Goten's lifeless body laid on the floor in front of him. "No..no no no no." Trunks spoke rapidly, hurrying over to place Goten's head in his lap. "Goten... Ten..." He shook him but Goten's eyes remained close. "Come on dude... wake up..." Tears began to well in his eyes. "Please..." He whimpered. "I love you." No response. "GOTEN!" Trunks yelled out, his voice reaching decibels he didn't know were possible.
As Android 12 stood nearby, seemingly indifferent to the devastation he had wrought, Trunks's sorrow swiftly transformed into a burning rage.
"HAAAAAAA!" The ground beneath him trembled as his power surged, golden energy erupting around him as he ascended into Super Saiyan form.
Android 12, taken aback by the sudden surge of power, hesitated for the first time. His arrogance wavered as he faced the unleashed fury of Trunks, who now held nothing back. The air crackled with tension as Trunks launched himself at Android 12 with blinding speed, his movements a blur of fury and determination. With each strike, Trunks seized the upper hand. He evaded Android 12's attacks effortlessly, countering with devastating blows that sent the android crashing into the unforgiving ground. Android 12 struggled to keep up, his confidence crumbling with every passing moment as Trunks relentlessly pushed forward.
Android 12 chuckled nervously, attempting to falter Trunks' power, "I killed your friend already. Why even try?"
"That wasn't just my friend." Trunks gritted through his teeth, punching Android 12 downwards sending him flying. "That was the love of my life!" He yelled.
Trunks's attacks were fueled by raw emotion—each punch and kick resonated with the pain of loss and the determination to avenge Goten. Android 12, visibly shaken and increasingly desperate, attempted to retaliate with renewed vigor, but each time he thought he had an opening, Trunks swiftly knocked him back with overwhelming force.The battlefield became a whirlwind of energy and fury as Trunks continued to dominate the fight. His movements were a love letter in themselves—to mourn the feelings he could never share with Goten. Android 12, now reeling from the onslaught, struggled to comprehend how the tables had turned so swiftly against him.
"How... could you get so strong suddenly?" He asked, realising just how much strength Trunks had obtained.
"You underestimate a Saiyan who's lost everything." Trunks spat back.
""You can't defeat me," Android 12 protested, struggling to rise against Trunks' relentless assault. "I am superior. Even if you do kill me, I've already taken your lover with me to hell."
Trunks felt the anger coursing through his body, ready to burst out. With a primal roar, Trunks unleashed his ultimate blast—the Heat Dome Attack. Golden energy swirled around him as he gathered his power, forming a blazing sphere of concentrated energy between his hands. Android 12 could only watch as Trunks hurled the devastating attack towards him. The Heat Dome Attack tore through the air with blinding speed, engulfing Android 12 in a cataclysmic explosion of energy. The force of the blast rocked the wasteland, leaving nothing but a crater in its wake.
As the smoke cleared, Trunks stood amidst the devastation, his chest heaving with exertion and grief. Android 12 was nothing but smoke and debris. He fell to his knees, tears streaming out of his cheeks.
"Goten..." He sobbed out, banging his fists against the floor. "I'm so sorry... I shouldn't have asked you to come with me."
Bulma ran to her son, kneeling down next to him and rubbing his back, tears in here eyes too. "It's not your fault honey."
"It's all my fault!" Trunks yelled out angrily at himself. "If I hadn't have asked him to come... he wouldn't be dead!" He whimpered, the tears flowing out uncontrollably. Just as he thought he would succumb to his heart break, Gohan's voice broke him out of the helplessness.
"Trunks!" He yelled out, holding Goten's limp body, he looked up with a mix of anguish and hope. "I... I can still feel his energy. It's faint, but it's there."
Trunks' eyes widened in disbelief. With renewed hope flickering in his heart, he quickly crawled over to Gohan and gently laid his trembling head on Goten's chest, pressing his ear up against Goten's heart.
'Thump... Thump... Thump'
"There's a heartbeat!" Trunks exclaimed, his voice cracking with relief. "Goten's alive!" Frantic and determined, Trunks turned to Goku, who stood nearby with a pouch of Senzu Beans. "Quickly, Goku! A Senzu Bean!" Goku nodded solemnly, understanding the urgency. He retrieved a Senzu Bean from the pouch and threw it to Trunks, who wasted no time in placing it in his own mouth and chewing it. He quickly leaned down and pressed his lips against Goten's, transferring the medicine into his mouth.
"I can't help but feel a sense of..." Goku searched for the word.
"Deja Vu." Vegeta felt the same way as he looked at Trunks feeding the bean to Goten mouth to mouth.
"Come on... come on..." Trunks spoke under his breath, praying to Kami, Goten would be okay.
Just as Trunks was about to cry again, a flicker of movement—barely noticeable at first—began in the corners of Goten's eyes. His eyelids trembled slightly. Slowly, almost painfully, they began to lift, revealing a glimmer of life in the depths beneath. Goten's eyes, once dull and unseeing, now sparkled with a newfound clarity. As they fully opened, a deep breath was drawn in, filling his chest and bringing a flush of color back to the previously dull skin. Pink hues spread across Goten's cheeks and lips, like a bloom after a long, harsh winter.
"Trunks?" He managed to say, his voice hoarse.
"Goten!" The tears flowed out of his eyes as he leant down to hug him and hold him tight. He would never let Goten get hurt again. "I thought I lost you." He sobbed into Goten's chest. Goten brought his hand up slowly to brush Trunks' blue hair comfortingly. "I love you." Trunks cried out.
"I love you too." Goten responded, his voice barely working. Once Trunks pulled away, he remained hovering over Goten who just smiled at him. Goten placed both of his hands on either side of Trunks' face. Perhaps it was the euphoria of surviving, but Goten couldn't stop himself in this moment. He pulled Trunks' face down to kiss him, passionately. Trunks responded quickly, kissing back. Kami, he needed Goten. He could kiss Goten forever, as long as that meant he never left his side. He just needed him to be there, pressing his soft lips against Trunks' own.
Gohan, Goku, Vegeta, and Bulma stood in stunned silence, their eyes wide with surprise as they witnessed the unexpected moment between Goten and Trunks. Each of them processed the scene with a mix of emotions and reactions:
Gohan's expression softened with understanding and a hint of amusement. He had grown up taking care of Goten and Trunks, knowing their close bond well. Gohan's thoughts raced to their childhood antics and how their relationship had evolved over the years.
A wide grin spread across Goku's face, a mix of paternal pride and lighthearted amusement. He knew he was right about seeing them kiss earlier.
Initially taken aback, Vegeta's stoic facade cracked slightly, revealing a hint of confusion. He exchanged a glance with Bulma, silently acknowledging the surprising turn of events. Her reaction was a mix of surprise and delight, tinged with a motherly warmth. Bulma's sharp wit and observant nature allowed her to recognize the depth of Goten and Trunks' connection, though she couldn't quite pinpoint what was so different about their relationship up until this point.
Goten and Trunks continued to kiss, neither of them wanting to be the one to break it. Trunks couldn't stand the feeling of losing Goten again, the sheer thought would send him into cardiac arrest. Goten on the other hand, felt like this kiss was bringing him back to life, like all the energy he lost was being put back into him. They finally parted, each one catching their breath, their foreheads bumping together.
"I love you... and I need you. Forever." Trunks breathed out to which Goten smiled.
"I love you too." Goten responded, his voice still weak.
"Please be mine." Trunks spoke softly. "I've loved you ever since we were kids. I loved you then, I love you now. I haven't been able to stop wanting you after our first kiss. I never want to lose you again. Please... don't leave me tongue tied." He closed his eyes to stop the tears from spilling out.
"I never want to lose you either." Goten replied, wiping Trunks' tears. "You love me?" He asked with a smile on his face, just wanting to hear the confirmation one more time.
"So much more than you could ever imagine." Trunks cried out.
"Then let's never let anything separate us again." Goten spoke with the cutest smile Trunks had ever seen and he felt himself falling in love all over again. All he could do was nod before he dove back in for another kiss. The surge of electricity that exploded between their lips was exponential, sending a wave of love through each of their bodies. Trunks could kiss Goten for eternity.
"Okay try not to chew my little brother's face off." Gohan interrupted causing them to break the kiss and both turn to him embarrassed.
"Sorry Trunks but I have to take Goten back to the mountains. His mother will worry." Goku interjected this time leaving Trunks pouting. "You'll see him soon."
Trunks looked at Goten once more, pressing a soft, short kiss against his lips. Once they parted Goten sighed in content smiling at him. Trunks stood up and Goku walked over, picking Goten up.
"Goodbye." He waved at Trunks with a sweet smile on his lips.
"Don't wave me goodbye..." Trunks responded and was met with a wink from Goten as Gohan and Goku began to fly away, with Goku carrying Goten in arms. Trunks felt a blush spread across his cheeks like a fever, trying everything he could to calm it down.
"Trunks." Vegeta spoke suddenly scaring Trunks. "How long have you been running around with Kakarot's son?.. Romantically." He asked seriously.
Trunks felt his words caught in his throat. "Uh..." Vegeta took a step closer to him. "Only recently." He continued nervously.
Vegeta's face was tense as raised his hand up, and Trunks braced himself for whatever would come next, his heart racing. The look on Vegeta's face softened and his entire demeanour changed to be calm as he lowered his hand down to pat Trunks on the shoulder.
"Be happy." Trunks eyes widened at that, feeling his heart beat relax.
"Thanks Dad." He smiled back and Vegeta just promptly nodded.
"I'm so happy for you darling." Bulma said excitedly, holding Trunks' face. "I always knew you were meant to be together!" Trunks blushed looking away.
"Thanks Mom." He said quietly.
"Treat him well." She smiled.
"I would rather spend a million years in hell than lose Goten."
