Goku x reader

The sun had set, casting a warm, orange glow over the serene landscape of the countryside. You and Goku had found a quiet spot away from the bustling world, a place where you could enjoy a moment of peace together.

But something had been bothering you lately. Goku had been training harder than ever, leaving early in the morning and returning late at night, his body battered and bruised from intense battles. It was clear that he was pushing himself to the limit, and it worried you.

Sitting beside Goku, you watched as he absentmindedly picked at the grass beneath his fingers. His expression was distant, lost in his own thoughts. The weight of your concern pressed on your chest, and you couldn't keep silent any longer.

"Goku," you began hesitantly, "I've been worried about you. You've been training so hard, and it feels like you're pushing yourself too much."

He turned to look at you, his onyx eyes filled with a mix of surprise and concern. "Well, I want to get stronger so I can protect everyone."

You nodded, understanding his dedication, but there was something more you wanted to convey. "I know that, Goku and I admire your strength and determination. But I also want you to take care of yourself. I don't want to see you hurt."

Goku's gaze softened, and he reached out to gently cup your cheek. "I promise I'll be careful, (Y/N). I don't want to worry you."

You leaned into his touch, feeling a warm rush of affection. "That's all I ask, Goku. Just promise me that you'll come back safe."

He smiled a genuine, heartwarming smile that eased your worries. "I promise."

As the two of you sat there, bathed in the soft twilight, Goku suddenly reached for your hand. He held it gently, his thumb tracing circles on your palm. "You know," he said with a mischievous glint in his eye, "training can be tough, but there are some fun parts too."

You raised an eyebrow, curious about what he meant. "Oh? Like what?"

Goku grinned, his face lighting up with excitement. "Well, for instance, learning new techniques and moves can be really exciting. You get to challenge yourself and see how strong you've become."

You couldn't help but smile at his enthusiasm. "Teach me something, Goku. Show me one of those exciting moves."

His eyes sparkled with excitement as he nodded. "Sure! You do it like this, see..." Goku began to demonstrate a simple martial arts move, guiding you through the motions step by step. His hands were gentle yet firm, his touch sending shivers down your spine.

As you followed his lead, you felt a sense of connection and intimacy that transcended words. Goku's presence, and his patience in teaching you, made your heart swell with affection.

After a few tries, you managed to mimic the move correctly. Goku beamed with pride. "See, you're a natural!"

You chuckled, feeling a warmth spreading through you. "Thanks to a great teacher."

As the night deepened, the two of you continued to practice together, lost in the peaceful yet thrilling moment. The concerns of the day faded into the background, replaced by the knowledge that you had each other, and that was enough to overcome any challenge that came your way.

Time seemed to stand still as you laughed, sparred, and learned together under the starry sky. Goku's presence filled you with a sense of contentment and happiness that you cherished.

Finally, as the night grew late, you both lay down on the grass, side by side, gazing up at the stars. Goku reached out to hold your hand, his fingers interlocking with yours. "I'm glad you're here with me, (Y/N)," he whispered.

You smiled, your heart overflowing with love. "I'm always here for you, Goku, no matter what."

With that, you drifted off to sleep under the canopy of stars, knowing that you and Goku would face whatever challenges lay ahead together, hand in hand, and that love would always be your guiding light.
