The is some Japanese in here (groan I know) I will be providing translations to some common words up front Baka- Idiot, fool. It is used playfully most of the time.

And possibly Lemon twords the end. That means explicit sexual descriptions. If you don’t like it. Don’t read it. Don’t say I diddnt warn ya! FLAMES ARE NOT ACCEPTED. Constructive criticism and comments/feedback are. I don’t take criticism well when it’s faced in a condescending manor. So be careful. Enjoy When you sleep. A yaoi, fic by Ryuu-Ka (Dragon of Fire) “Baka”. I whispered. The darkness around me was comforting. From Tunks’ open window across the room I could smell the heavy night air, rich with mist. “baka” I whispered again creeping twords the form lying before me. Trunks was sleeping so peacefully, his soft violet hair had fallen over his eyes, rising and falling as he drew breath. I sighed heavily. Why Trunks? Why did I have to feel like this for him? I reached out to touch his hair. In the moonlight it was almost white. I slid his bangs through my fingers. It was soft and cool. I brushed the hair out of his eyes. The object of my affection shifted in his sleep. I could see his eyes closed tight, moving around. He was dreaming. I hoped about me. No such luck probly. “dammit Trunks” I couldent help but smile at him. Everyone always said I could be read like a bilboard. Any emotion whatsoever came across my face pretty distinctly. Anyone who couldve seen my face would know I was in love with this angel. I had been avoiding eye contact with Trunks for awhile. Mabey he was getting annoyed with me. It was hard to tell. Trunks is the brooding sort. Its amazing how were best friends. Were complete polar oppisets. “god your cute” the urge to bend over and kiss him was almost impossible to control. I had to settle for brushing my hand against his cheek. Even after years of battle his face was smooth as new satin. He shivered underneath my hand. Because of my touch? I don’t know. I pulled his blanket up over his bare chest and shoulders. Anyhow he stoped shivering. “baka” I repeated through my idiotic grinning. He nearly woke up. Shit! I was talking to loud! I used my super speed and bolted out his window and perched on a tree just as he sat up in bed. “hel- oh,” he said obiously groggy. He looked around and settled back down and fell asleep. Shit. I have to be more careful. Id been sneaking into Trunks’ room every night I could for nearly 3 months now. I’s sit there sometimes all night just watching him sleep. Ive never had such intense feelings for anyone. Ever. I couldent let Trunks know. I’m pretty sure he’s not yaoi. I just couldent stand to lose him. I couldent live. He couldent know ever. I don’t know which hurts more, not being able to loose myself in his icy blue eyes. Or not being able to simply say it. “I love you” I whispered. I can’t say it to him. I hopped out of the saftey of the tree and onto his window sill. I ducked back inside. “I love you Trunks” I whispered to him. He started to open his eyes. But I was gone. I knew he heard something and it woke him up. I just wish I could tell him when he was awake. I flew back home and slipped into bed and fell asleep just as dawn was peeking over the horizon. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I knocked on the door to Goten’s house. Chichi answered, always smiling. The perfect hostess “ohayo goziamas Chichi-san!” “Ohayo Trunks!” I just noticed she was holding a very large wooden spoon. “Goten isn’t up yet. Would you like some breakfast?” “no thanks, I already ate, arrigato” “well come in” I stepped inside and Chichi led me to the kitchen. I sat down at their table. “ would you like a muffin Trunks?” “sure” I answered. I learned awhile ago not to refuse Chichi’s cooking. I was still eating when Goten stumbled into the kitchen rubbing the sleep out of his eyes. “ohayo!” He stopped midyawn. I swear he looks like a puppy in the mornings. “oh! Hi, Ohayo Trunks!” His face went alittle red. “ready to go?” I asked. “sure!” as he suppressed another yawn. “Wait just a minute mister!” Chichi. Regaining her normal cheery tone, “not before breakfast. “but…” Goten began to plead. He stopped when Chichi gave him that look of hers. The look on his face was priceless. Just like stunned rabbit. I tried to hold down a laugh. Chichi obiously saw me and decided to server breakfast rather quickly. She finally talked me into eating something. And I was as Gohan strolled into the house, sweat rolling off his face. He was up early. “Training?” Goten asked. “yea, hey, smells good!” “Gohan, so good of you to come in to have breakfast with us. Gohan shot a look over to Goten. “what?” “…nothing” Chichi had hussled him down to the table. “here you go Gohan” Chichi set down a heaping plate of food. “you look ragged” I said He looked up from the steaming platter “how long have you been up?” “I couldent sleep. I’ve been up all night” he peered at his younger brother with a sideways glance. Goten’s eyes widened alittle bit and his face lost some color. “anyways,” Gohan began again, looking back at his breakfast. “I’m not really hungry” I swear Chichi growled, “well mabey I could have some I guess” ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ “Goten can I talk to you?” “uh sure, hold on a second Trunks” I ambled over to where Gohan was walking. “yea?” I knew I sounded shaky. “I was up all night” oh boy, did, did he see me leave?” “and?” I asked trying to keep calm. I definatly had butterflies in my stomach. “You left pretty late… where did you go” He said glancing over at Trunks. “Just flew around for awile.” “uh huh. Nearly 4 hours” “I was stewing I guess.” “about what?” He glanced back at Trunks “eh, everything.” I knew if he caught a glimpse of my face he’d know I was lying. Gohan was always good at knowing when I was exercising my creativity. “I saw you head in the direction of Trunks’ house” He stated matter-of-factly. Trying to get a response “what were you doing over there?” “oh, I wasn’t going to Trunks’ place, Its just the direction I took off in” I was busted and I knew it. “You came back the same way too.” Shit I was busted. “acctually Ive seen you go over there a lot latley. Sometimes all night” “I.. I” obiously shocked that My own brother had been spying on me. Dammit, he looked over and saw my face. I was blushing… a lot. “something up Goten?” “no, nothings wrong” “uh huh,” he grunted turning his head to the clouds. “look Bro, If you need to talk to me…” “I know your always here” I diddnt mean to sound snide. “Sorry. Im just concerned about you Goten. You’ve been real secretive latley. Hey, I know!” “y-y-you do?” I gulped “It’s a Girl right? I’ll bet it is! Oh wait, It isnt Bra is it?” “No!” I almost screamed “oh… ok, whats she like” “Proud” I said glancing westward to my violet haired love. With the cutest look on his face. He was trying not to eavesdrop, I knew it. “beautiful” I added looking back to Gohan. I saw a look Ive only seen on Gohans face once before. It was the time he broke his leg while we were sparring. Total shock. “wait a second…” oh shit… did I give myself away!? “anything else about her?” good, I diddnt do anything too stupid. “yea, good heart. Brooding sometimes, but definatly loveable. Strong minded. And did I mention beautiful?” “yea… Goten?” Gohan asked his voice real low, hard to hear. He looked over his shoulder. “You arent talking about… Trunks are you?” Theres that look. I nearly fell down. My face had to have been white. Gohan definatly read my reaction correctly. His eyes went wide as saucers. “holy… holy shit!” He looked back over his shoulder, Trunks still had that mildly perplexed look, wondering what in the world was going on between us. “Goten… I never… your?…why diddnt you tell me?” “I never knew myself” I admitted. “please don’t tell him Gohan, please” I knew I sounded pathetic. Gohan, being the best big brother in the world turned back to me, the biggest smile Id ever seen spanning his face. “start laughing really hard” “what?” “I just told you a hilarious joke, and it was funny” damn he’s the greatest guy in the world. I blurted out a snort and laughed till I fell down, tears welling up in my eyes. He helped me up, “talk to him” “Thanks Gohan, I owe you one” I wheezed getting up. “Next time don’t leave a vapor trail, Im sure If Trunks woke up he would see it.” “thanks bro!” He still was smiling, I trotted over to Trunks. His left eyebrow was nearly touching his hairline. “what was that all about?” He asked. “I’ll tell ya later” I said still chuckling. ***OWARI PART ONE*** When You sleep. Part two Yaoi Fic Ryuu-ka ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ “What was that all about?” “I’ll tell ya later” I think he said “c’mone lets go!” “alright alright I said catching up to him. He was running. Goten almost NEVER runs. Whatever Gohan said cheered him up. “hey wait up!” “sorry” he gasped stopping about 2 meters infront of me. Unfortunetly I diddnt. BAMM! I plowed right into Goten! We tumbled at well over 50 MPH until we slid to a halt. “ouch” we said in unison. It diddnt hurt us really. I had landed underneath of Goten, his face inches from mine. Any closer and we would’ve hit eachother in the forehead. Good thing, I diddnt have as hard a head as he did. “ouch” I repeted as we both started laughing. Goten stopped rather suddenly. “you ok?” His eyes darted away from mine, I think he was blushing some. Not sure. “yea, Im fine” He pushed himself off of me. We were already out of sight of his house… and everything else for that matter. “well this is as good a place as any” he looked around. Well, whatever Gohan said had worn off. Goten was back to his vacant look. He just wasn’t looking at me. I am acctually starting to think he is upset with me or something like that. “have I upset you or something?” “wha-? No, why?” “You just seem alitle distant latley” “Im ok Trunks, really” I figured I better let it drop. He’ll say something when he’s ready If something is wrong. I know him too well. “Ok, whatever” I shrugged. “Lets go!” He diddnt have time to react, I hit him in the side with a harsh Spinkick then a roundhouse to the other side followed by a swift blow to the solarplexus. “AHHHH! SHIMATTA!” He cussed very loudly as he flew trough the air. Goten Kicked his legs out and caught a tree behind him, with an explosion his hair turned Gold and his eyes turned a bright electric green, super saiyin. I responded with the same. He hurled himself twords me. I threw a blinding Ki blast, too slow a snapkick to my head and I was on the ground just as my blast hit a nearby mountain. I used Piccolo’s old boubleform trick to distract Goten and I merged myself back above his head. “SOLAR FLARE!” He was blinded! Yes! I brought my hands together and smashed then down on his back sending him face first to the ground about 20 feet below. When the dust had cleared he was powering up a devistating Kamehameha. I was too slow It hit me head on. When I opened my eyes Goten was standing over top of me, still SS. I clearly was not. Goten was grinning like an idiot. “gotcha” He calmly stated. “owowow, you win!” I choked getting myself to sit up. Nice move, I diddnt even see it coming. I extended my hard out to my friend. “thanks” trunks mumbled getting to his feet. “y’know I hate losing” he grinned “but… my butt hurts… I hit the ground WAY to hard!” “sorry” I diddnt like the idea of hurting his butt. It was too cute. “you won… for now” he grinned. “I’ll get you later” “Im sure you will.” Damn your hot Trunks “Hmm?” oops, I forgot, were almost telepathic. Every now and then we can pick up on what each other is thinking. “Nothing” oops I repeated silently. We were lying shirtless in the warm sun. I could certainly use a tan. Id been inside a lot latley. Goten on the other hand had a nice golden tan. Not too dark. He never seems to get to much sun. A soft cool breeze blew across my chest. It felt kinda good actually. I fell into a light sleep in the warm sun. When I awoke, Goten wasn’t moving. He must’ve been asleep. “you awake Trunks?” “yea, how long have I been out?” “I dunno I was asleep too” I felt something cool and silky running across my stomach and trailing around my wrist and arm. “Goten, do you feel…” “yea” whatever it was tingled I sat up slowly Goten was already sitting up. It was a Vermilian shade of red, a ribbon of sorts. It trailed around my left shoulder, over my belly, and went around my wrist and went up my arm trailing over to Goten’s right wrist and wrapping up his arm and around his body. It was shinning in the light, irridesent. I reached out to touch it. As I did, it dissipated into the air just as softly as it had come. “what was that all about I whispered, not daring to move. “I, I don’t know” “Trunks…?” “yea” “don’t you know anything about that?” I studdied the occult and paranormal phenomena, only Goten knew it. He is my best friend, why shouldn’t he. “honestly I don’t know, Ill see if I can find out” “okay” Goten whispered. I looked at him, he looked at me. And for once he diddnt turn away. I saw something deep behind his eyes. I’d really never noticed before how beautiful his eyes were. Wait, what am I saying? He has nice eyes, yea, so what? But I saw something glint behind his playful eyes. Fear? No… what was that look? Somewhere inside of me I knew what it was… I just couldent make the connection in my brain. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Trunks and I spent the rest of the day together. Whatever that red… ribbon was. It was weird, that’s all I have to say. But oddly enough. I dunno, I felt like I could look into Trunks’ eyes and not be ashamed of my love. “Goten, you baka” I spoke to the darkness. It was true, I am a fool, I am an idiot. I couldent be any more foolish if I could let myself belive for one second that Trunks could love me. “Konichi-wa!” Gohan peeked his head in my room. “oh hi!” “hows it going bro?” he looked up and down the hallway and sensed for power signals, we were the only two awake. “you uh… talk to Trunks?” There was that same ear-to-ear smile I bowed my head “no” I simply sighed. There went his smile “oh” I love Gohan I do, but sometimes he cant leave well enough alone. That’s why he’s a good brother. He sauntered over to my bed and politely sat himself down. “You wanna talk?” “I dunno” He looked away from me to the wall. “y’know Goten, I havent told anyone this.” He looked at his feet “But, when I was taken hostage by the androids, they, well, the boy atleast did some things to me…” I couldent believe what I was hearing… “He got quite personal with me. Well, VERY personal.” “Gohan…?” “Goten, the thing was, he had his restrictions. See, he couldent touch… me, unless I wanted it. Even if I diddnt know it. I couldent hurt him, he was to powerfull. Goten, we had sex, not rape, sex. More than a few times. Anyhow, Goten I’m Bi. Yea, I know” “Gohan… I..” “Goten I admire you.” Gohan admired me? “why?” “well, I’m only half yaoi Goten. And I found out a lot later in my life than you did. I, I don’t know. I couldent stand myself for, wanting such things. I blamed the android, I blamed myself. Its nobodys fault. It took me about 4 years to come to terms with myself. I’m ok now. I guess I was mad for not seeing it within myself. But you Goten. Not only did you see it, you recognised it. And correct me if Im wrong but you accept it” I nodded “after a long time I did.” I answered solemly. He nodded back. “I understand. Goten, why diddnt you tell me?” “I, Im not sure.” I admitted “Well, anyhow, I’ll always love you Goten. You’re my little brother” with that he put his arm around me and pulled me to his sholder “I think you and Trunks are cute together. You should talk to him. Let him know how you feel. He is your best friend Goten. Be honest, he deserves that much atleast. I know he won’t let go of you. I’ve seen it. You two are inseprable.” “I don’t know If I can Gohan” “Goten I know I promised I wouldent, but if you don’t tell him I will. This is eating you alive from the inside out. Look at yourself. You don’t sleep as much anymore. Your appitite isnt what it used to be. Your always brooding. That’s not like you. I miss the cheery, playful Brother I love so much.” “I understand Gohan. I guess I should say something sooner or later” “sooner” “Gohan.” “yes?” “thanks for, sharing that with me” “Thanks for being honest with me.” I gave Gohan the biggest hug Id ever given him. I think I squeezed the air out of him. “you’re the best Gohan!” he blushed. Well atleast I come by it honestly. I started doing that trademark grin of mine as Gohan left for his own bed. I slept the more peacefully that night than I have in the last 3 years. And yes I dreamed about the Blue eyed angel called Trunks. ***OWARI Part two*** When you sleep Part three Yaoi Fic. WARNING: something upsetting ahead. You’ve been warned. Ryuu-ka ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ “Any luck?” Goten asked as we flew. “No, Im going to go to Dende and ask him later today” After sparring we were lying on the same sandy beach we were yesterday. I drifted off to sleep in the warm sun again. I drifted back into awarness. “…Kuso” I grumbled. I rubbed my eyes. “Trunks…” “Ne?” I grunted “Its here again”. I sat straight up. My sudden motion blew away the ribbon. “Kuso, what it that?” I asked. I looked over at my friend staring at his hands in his lap. “Goten… Doshita n desu-ka?”(what’s the matter?) He laughed. I don’t know Japanese very well, well almost none. But for the last few months I’ve asked learned to ask that a lot. He slightly chuckled again. “nothing.” He still diddnt look up. “Goten…?” “Im fine Trunks!” he snapped. “Bakaba-nashi!”(bullshit). There was a long deadly silence. “…Goten. Whats wrong? Please talk to me.” Another pause. He still wasn’t looking up. “Im worried about you Goten” I admitted. “you’ve been really down the past few months, you don’t seem to want to look at me. Did I piss you off or something?” “no” “c’mone. What’s the problem then? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I diddnt know how much Japanese Trunks knew. I hope it wasn’t a lot. Now or never. Stop being a jerk Goten. Tell him. He deserves to know. “Watashi-wa ai-shima`su anatta-wa.”(I love you) I whispered. “Na-ni?”(what?) He diddnt understand. “ Watashi-wa ni horema`su anatta-wa”(I fell in love with you) “Goten speak to me regularly. I don’t know that much Jap...” I cut him off “dammit Trunks!” I yelled. I was frustrated. “Trunks…” I continued calming myself, I could see the surprise on his face. “Trunks… weve been best friends since we could walk right?” “yea” “I’ve known you all my life, you’re the only person in the world I fully trust. So… Kuso, this is rough. Trunks… Im not sure when. Or why. But…” “but what?” he asked skeptically, one eyebrow raised. “Trunks. I love you.” His eyes went as wide as saucers. Both slender eyebrows were almost at his hairline. Then his face slowly changed. His eyes narrowed and the mouth closed. He glared at me. I couldent look at him anymore. I fucked up. Bad. “Go ahead, pound me. I probely deserve it.” A lump was forming in my throat. I fucked up bad. My Best friend now hated me. I could feel his icy blue eyes burning into me. “Goten” Trunks growled trying to control his temper. “Trunks Im sorry! I had to tell you!” I yelled whirling around to face him. He had stood up. His eyes burned with a hawk like intencity. The air around him was distorted. Like heat waves off a hot road. He was angry. I felt the knot in my neck tighten and tears welled up behind my eyes. “I couldent keep it in any longer” I said. My voice was so soft and quiet. I was choking down my own tears. I couldent cry in front of him. “It was killing me Trunks. Gohan told me I needed…” “GOHAN!? He knows about this!” Trunks roared. I dropped my head. I couldent fight the tears any more. I began to cry. Very softly. My back shuddered and I couldent speak. The only sound that came out of me were soft involuntary whimpers. A cool tear streamed down my cheek and fell to the sand, soaking a tiny section beneath me. Then another, and another. Untill finally I was blinded by my tears. The only sounds I heard, were my quiet whimpering, and the sand crunching under Trunks’ feet as he walked away. ***OWARI Part Three*** Simi-marsem (excuse me) I hate to break the mood.
