Heading home, Trunks was once again nervous, his father, the man who had taken such good care of him during these 5 years, the man he had wanted to thank and hug for so long, it was finally happening, he was finally going to say it.
They were in front of the house, as Trunks had his key out, he hesitated, but Lalania pushed him and gave him the courage he needed. Opening the door, he walked in, heading straight for the livingroom, there his father had his back to him and his mother was bent down, picking up clothes and arguing with him as usual, this loosened him up a bit and brought a very slight smile to his mouth. As his mother got up, she saw him looking straight at her, his lips saying a soundless “ Mama”, she was speechless, Vegita hadn’t caught on yet.
-What’s wrong with you woman?
He turned around only to see his 19 year old son standing before him and voicing something that was getting clearer each time until he finally spoke out loud.
-Papa....
-You......, he peered into his blue eyes,........you’re ......cured?
That was all Trunks needed, he suddenly ran towards him, jumped over the couch and landed right in front of him and straight into his open arms. Trunks was holding onto him as strongly as he could , he had started crying.
-Daddy, ...I missed so much, if only you knew I......you......I love you papa, I’ve been meaning to tell you for so long...!
He was now really crying, his body was shaking with sobs and emotion , he could no longer control himself. His mother had started crying too as she came closer to hug him too, Vegita took them both into his embrace and hugged them, he had been wishing for this moment for 5 long years.
-When..?What happened?
-We talked , said Trunks , looking towards Lalania.
-You talked? Whatever, I don’t really want to know. Now both of you let go a little, I just might choke. Now sit down and calm down.
-I have so many things to say ..I...
-It’s ok , you’re gonna get to say everything, I just want you to calm down a bit,...and stop crying, it’s suppose to be a happy moment....bloody human emotions.....
But he was discretely wiping his own tears.
-Lalania, don’t stay back there, come here.
-If you’re not too angry at me....
-Me, angry, have you ever seen me angry?
They all stopped and watched Vegita scepticly.
-Alright aready, I don’t have that much of a bad temper.
They still stared.
-Will you stop that!
And all laughed.Trunks spent the rest of the day on the couch talking and hugging his parents. When Bra came home from a friend’s, the little girl was thrilled, but the most incredible response was Pain’s. As she came home, Trunks got up and went towards her, she couldn’t believe it and jumped on him, he ended up carrying her around for the next 2 hours as she babbled everything she had to say, sobbing and cligging on to him.
-I tried not to let it get to me, but I couldn’t.
-You did fine, if it hadn’t been for your cheerful mood I would of been much sadder, I appreciate you never letting me down. I really needed that.
-You mean it?
-All the way.
Trunks knew he still had to go places and see friends, but he couldn’t let go of his parents, staying all weekend with them, not wanting to let go, afraid it might all be a dream. That Saturday evening though, he had it all planned to spend the night with Lalania, to celebrate their love. Being 19, although Vegita had a pretty good idea of what his plans were, he had nothing to say, and even if his son had been younger, he wouldn’t have had the heart to say anything. And as he knew, the night passed away, he could unfortunately feel the ki’s flowing, which resulted in a sleepless night for him, and which is worse, part of the day too!!
3 am
-Don’t these kids ever stop!!!
-What is it dear?
Bulma could have slept fine if it weren’t for her husband waking her up every 3 hours!
-They’ve been at it for 8 hours! They can’t possibly have that much energy!!
-Well obviously they have. Now try and sleep.
-Sleep!! How on earth am I suppose to sleep, I don’t do that much ki racket when we have fun!
-Honey, he’s been off it for 5 years, he’s a 19 year old young man that has a libido to catch up to, that’s all . Now let me sleep.
-Yeah right. Just this once I wish I were as weak as you.
-That’s nice honey.
She fell back to sleep. Unfortunately for poor Vegita, this went on for 18 hours!! It will be the longest ever “recorded” in the Briefs household. But the next evening when the couple finally woke up, coming back from total exhaustion, they were so totaly in love with each other that nothing could have seperated them, not even the universe splitting in 2.
