Finding Love (Vegeta x Goku)

Traveling

My 27th birthday is tomorrow! My friends and family want to celebrate over the course of the week. I'm not sure if I'll be able to post another chapter this week, but I got this one done!

Enjoy!

"Vegeta, are you sure you know where we're going?" Gohan asked the elder saiyan as he piloted the ship. The full blooded saiyan's only response was a twitch of the eyebrow. Gohan continued on after he carefully thought of a response that wouldn't get him blasted."According to the sensors, there's nothing at this star system."

"Yes, I know exactly where we are, and where we need to go! I've got this part of the galaxy memorized like the back of my own hand! Just because something isn't showing, doesn't mean that it's not there, brat! Now, sit down and shut up!" Vegeta snarled as he finally lost his patience.

Gohan took a step back from the temperamental man. He sat down on the chair next to Trunks and crossed his arms over his chest with an almost silent huff. Ever since they left Earth, the former prince has been shorter tempered and extremely eager to get to the saiyan home world.

It had been a long three weeks together, and the cramped ship did nothing to help with things.

Bulma had a Capsule Corp. ship almost exactly like the one Goku took to get to Namek with only enough room added for two more beds. The three males had been living on top of each other all this time, and Gohan couldn't wait to leave this metal ball. If they didn't stop soon, he wouldn't be held accountable for his actions.

Vegeta had hardly slept the first week into their trip. He would hover over the flight controls or train in the lower levels of the ship to burn off energy. More then once did Trunks and Gohan carried him to back his room once he ran out of steam. It took Gohan threatening to reset the coordinates back to Earth and locking the older saiyan out of the computer to get him to settle down a bit.

"Gohan?" Trunks looked over at his fellow demi-saiyan. "Do...do you think Goten will be happy to see me?" The question was whispered to the teen. He gripped the orange belt of his gi and twisted it around his hands as he waited for a response.

Gohan frowned at the question. Trunks had been very quiet, and frankly, it was worrying the teen. At first he thought it was a method to keep from annoying his father, but now...the oldest half blood suspected it was something else. He leaned over to ruffle lavender hair with a smile on his face.

"Of course, Trunks. You're his best friend. Why wouldn't he be happy to see you?" The flinch the teen got from the cub made Gohan narrow his eyes. He looked back over at Vegeta, who was checking some readings from multiple monitors, before standing up. Gohan whispered in the boy's ear, "Come with me, Trunks."

The boy gulped as he moved to follow the teen to his room. Gohan motioned for Trunks to take a seat on the full size bed, and looked down at the younger saiyan with a raised eyebrow. When the teen saw the sweat that broke out on the cub's face, he became more concerned than anything.

"Trunks? What's wrong? You can tell me. I'm not going to be upset or anything, just tell me what's bugging you." Gohan gently spoke as he kneeled in front of his brother's best friend. He tilted his head down to see watery blue eyes, and Trunks sniffed as his hands clenched from where they rested on his knees.

The guilt and depression of not having his best friend in his life was eating him alive, and he couldn't take anymore. The cub bursted into tears as he flung himself in Gohan's arms. The teen quickly caught Trunks, but now he was even more confused, concerned, and worried then before. The scent of tears had Vegeta rushing to check on his son, and saw the two demi-saiyans on the floor.
