It was late in the day, and the sky was streaked with orange and lavender; the color of Trunks's hair. Goten put his hands behind his head and stared up at the sky as he lay on the ground. He had just closed his eyes when he felt a familiar ki approaching. A smile formed on his lips as he sat up on his elbows.
Goku landed gracefully and walked over to Goten. He studied his son as he came closer. He looks just like himself, no doubt about that thought Goku.
"Hey dad," greeted Goten as his father came closer. "Hey Goten! What's up?" "Nothing....Just laying here. Thinking."
"Hey Goten....um....are you and Trunks....uh...." He laughed and placed one hand on the back of his head. Goten jerked his head towards his father.
"Um....If you mean.....Yes......" He blushed furiously. "But....How did you know?"
"Oh, Goten, it's obvious to me! I'm your dad, for Pete's sake!"
"Ooh....." Goten fidgeted.
"Oh, son, it's ok! I don't mind. I myself am kinda...well.....bi." Goku's words sunk in after a few seconds. Goten's eyes snapped open very wide, his head jerked up, and he gaped at his father, his mouth hanging open.
"But..What?!..With who!?"
It was Goku's turn to fidget. He mumbled something incoherently. Goten grinned wickedly and stood up. He walked over to his father and took him by the shoulders. "Oh come on...." he coaxed.
Goku looked at the ground and mumbled, "Vegeta....."
Goten almost fell over backwards. He gaped at his father.
"You're kidding!"
Goku shook his head with downcast eyes. "But you two seem to hate each other! Well, he seems to hate you at least."
"Well......our little relationship is probably what caused him to hate my guts in the first place."
"Will you tell me?"
"No....Not now, some other time. Now probably wouldn't be a good time."
"Oh.....Ok!"
"I think we better get home," Goku grinned, "Chi-Chi was fixing dinner before I left, and Gohan was there, we better get some before that pig eats it all!"
Goten laughed and nodded. Then father and son flew off towards their home.
