My Birthday

Ring ring ring

I groaned as my hand shot up to grab the annoyance. I had just finally gotten to sleep, and someone decided to text me. I unlocked my phone and saw the text was from my best friend Trunks.

Hey Goten, I'm sorry to wake you, you want to hang out tomorrow

Ummm sure Trunks I replied

Great, well I'll let you get back to sleep.

Okay Good Night

Actually it's good morning

Smart ass

;)

I then set my phone back down and attempted to go back to sleep. I kept thinking about Trunks, and that's all I could think about. His beautful tan skin, his lylac hair and sapphire eyes, his intoxicating scent. Wait! Why was i thinking this way?

I finally got to sleep, but my dream couldn't have been more awkward. It was Trunks, but he was kissing me and hugging me. It was as if we were dating.

I awoke in a sweat, with the typical morning 'surprise'. I got up and went to go shower, when something felt off. Somethimg was going on today, but I couldn't remember what. That's right, family day is today.

All of the Son family get's together and we soend a day together as a family. Pan and Gokai are both kids of my brother Gohan. Pan has long straight black hair, and Gokai has a style more like my father. They both have Gohan's personality and Videl's looks.

I jumped in the shower and just let my mind wander. I liked to think of showers as I way to cleanse the body, and help rid yourself of negative thoughts. And based off that dream I had, I really needed this shower.

I grabbed some shampoo, and ran it through my hair. My finger were massaging my scalp in the process. I lathered up my body with soap, and when I got to my groin I was thinking about Trunks. The way his voice calmed me when I was nervous, or the way his hands would run through my hair to calm me down if I were upset.

No! Wait! This is wrong! This is soooo wrong! Trunks is my best friend, so why am I thinking if him like this?

I finished my shower and stepped out, wrapping a towel around my waist. I walked out into the hallway and I had to be in the lookout. Today was also my birthday, and my dad always loved to surprise me.

I got back into my room and looked over at my phone, no messages from anyone. I got dressed quickly, and went down stairs to eat some breakfast.

"Happy Birthday Goten!" my mom amd dad said appearing around the corner.

"Thanks guys. Lets's eat" I said with a smile.

They agreed and soon I had my mouth filled with delicious waffles. I bit into one of my waffles and felt my teeth bite into something hard. I opened my mouth, pulled it out, and observed the object. It took some cleaning, AKA licking the object of food remnants, for me to be able to identify what it was.

It was a ring with an onyx stone in the middle. It was absolutely breath taking, and the stone itself was beautiful. I wonder why this was in my waffles.

"Honey, what's that?" my mother asked.

"I found it in my waffle. I don't know why it was there" I answered with a blush.

"The stone matches your eyes" my father announced stuffing his face full of waffle once again.

I blushed harder. Here I am thinking this stone is one of the most beautiful things, and my dad says it looks like my eyes. I wonder if the person who bought this felt the same way.

I beard the doorbell ring and went to answer it. I found a note on the porch when I opened the door.

I hope you enjoy the ring, and had a great breakfast. Happy 18th birthday, you will receive my gifts throughout the day. I got you the ring because it us a oart of the final gift. Please bring it with you to your party today.

Sincerely,

Sfeirb Sknurt

Huh? Who is this guy? I thought. My mind drew a blank, and I retreated back inside. My parents asked who was there, but I had to tell them no one.

I went upstairs and threw myself on my bed. I was so excited, but also kind of nervous. What if I didn't actually like this person? What if they turned out to be a jerk?

I then started to worry myself and had to message Trunks in order to calm down. I grabbed my phone, and selected the desired contact.

Hey Trunks, what's up?

Nm Chibi, getting read to shower hbu?

I blushed at the response. I should be used to him calling me that, but it makes me blush everytime. I also thought up an image of Trunks, in a towel, dripping wet. I shook myself from my trance.

"Wanna hang now?" I asked still admiring the ring on your finger.

"Sure! I'll be right over" He responded.

I laughed. He always seemed to do anything for me. It was almost as if I were his brother or something. I love that he treated me like this, I've often forgot we were just friends, and almost gave myself away.

I was deep in thought, so when Trunks rested his hand on my shoulder, I jumped. He just laughed and I joined him.

"So Goten, happy birthday" he said hugging me.

"Thanks, Trunks. It means a lot to hear that" I said hugging back.

We stayed up in my room and were just talking about things. We didn't play one game, or get to careless with our words. We talked about school, we talked about family. Eventually it was time to go outside and eat the feast that had been prepared. I was a saiyan after all.

I grabbed a huge plate load of turkey, a dinner roll, some gravy, mashed potatoes, and a slice of cake. It looked absolutely stunning, and I couldn't wait to dig in. I it into the roll, and felt something hard. I pulled out a chain, and continued to pull. The the end of the chain was a solid gold bracelett with my name engraved in it.

"Hey Goten, I heard yougot a ring earlier, could I see it" Trunks sked shyly.

"Sure. I don't see why not" I said excusing myself and going back into house.

I retrieved the ring and gave it to Trunks. He marveled at the site of it, but then he did something I wasn't expecting. He got down on one knee, a held the ring up.

"Trunks..... Wha... What are you doing?" I asked cocking my head slightly to the side.

"Goten, I can't wait any longer. You are the one I want to spend the rest of my life with. I love you Goten, will you marry me?" he asked.

"But Trunks, that ring....."

"Spell the name backwards" he instructed.

I did mentally and then facepalmed. The name on the card with the ring was Trunks' name backwards. It was him!

"Oh my Kai! Yes! Yes Trunks I will" I screamed leaping into his arms.

We kissed and he placed the ring on my finger. We walked outside hand in hand and everyone cheered. Wait!..... They knew this whole time!?

I tensed up with a bit of rage, but felt Trunks' hand squeeze mine and I calmed down. I felt like as long as he was by my side, there was nothing I couldn't do. And I couldn't wait to start my new life with Trunks beside me.

Author's Note: So here is a little story I started a week before my birthday. My birthday has now passed (April 23) and this story is finally going up. It is a oneshot, but leave a review telling me what you thought. Until next time, bye
