Goten pov
Okaru's hand is so warm against my skin. I don't understand why he is doing this, but I feel embarrassed even though I like it.
His body embraces mine on the couch and he removed my shirt a while ago, he said he wanted me to get used to "intimacy" considering how much I was frustrated over it.
He pulls my hand to his bare chest over his heart and I feel the heavy thumping deep from within.
I feel the heat on my cheeks and he smiles softly, leaning down to kiss my forehead.
"Do you see?" He asks.
I nod slowly.
"I am just as nervous and excited as you when I am around you, Goten."
So warm....
His skin is smooth and gentle to the touch.
I like feeling him so closely.
I try to look away but he catches my cheeks and turns me to face him again.
"No, you must get used to my prying eyes. I look at you because I can't stand not to. I want you to be just the same, don't you understand?"
I gulp hesitantly and now I'm staring into his obsidian orbs that are so dark.
I feel as though he is reading every memory and thought I have but in reality he doesn't have such a capability.
"Th-the dream I-I had..."
Am I speaking? I sound so...fragile.
He nods, continuing to hold his gaze in mine.
My fingers grasp his shoulders tightly as the remembrance of the frightening nightmare come flooding back.
I do my best to bite back a choke but it doesn't work and he strokes my cheek with his soft finger.
"Go ahead, I'm listening." Okaru's voice is so soft and soothing and his eyes no longer feel piercing, they are more welcoming and comforting.
"Y-you w-were dying a-and I t-tried to s-save you but you w-wouldn't c-come back I-"
My eyes widen as his soften more and more.
I think my body is telling me to hold him but I'm not sure...
My knees bend up on either side of him and I lift my feet to wrap around his waist.
He doesn't grind, he doesn't advance into anything sexually although I was afraid he would, but he lets me hold him.
I think he knows I'm scared.
I'm always scared.
"I thought you had l-left me because I-it felt so real oka..."
Okaru whimpers and murmurs something comforting to me, as he presses his lips to mine softly.
I kiss back without hesitating.
I truly had been scared when I watched him die.
If he was gone, after all that he has done to my life now, I don't know what I would do.
A moments hesitation is all it takes to ruin this soft moment between us and I do my best to disregard any fear in this very second of my life.
My hands act without a second thought and they find their way into his soft black hair and scrunch it gently.
He smiles against my lips and I press him closer to me, our faces hot with desperation and our tongues wet with passion.
Okaru twists his tongue with mine and we pull away, a small string of saliva threatening to drop but I quickly close the gap again before it can disappear. He whimpers softly into my mouth as I sit up, forcing him to do the same.
We pull away for another intake of air and he sighs, resting his head against my chest as he grasps my shoulders.
I feel the heat rise again and I blush.
"Th-that's enough for now Goten. We can't do this right now, I wanted to have a serious moment with you."
I nod and he pulls me onto his lap with an admiring eye.
"But I do like to see you take such initiative."
I growl and shove him away as I stand up with a slight limp.
"Don't make fun of me. Besides I haven't trained in awhile and I don't want to appear weak to the rest of my friends..."
The Saiyan survivor gives a goofy smile and nods, joining me outside as we head out to my Dad's training grounds.
