Mating 101

e weeks rolled by. His mother and yet to find about him and 18. So every night, he would sneak out of the guest room and into his old room where he would spend the nights with 18. He didn't know if he would ever be able to break the news to his mother. What would she do if she found out he was in a sexual relationship with his former enemy.

18 didn't mind them keeping their relationship a secret. She seemed to find it exciting, almost like a game. Aside from that, she too was a little concerned how Bulma would react when she found out that she and her son were sleeping together.

Normally Bulma would respect her son's privacy and wouldn't enter his room. But today she had something to tell him that she thought he would find interesting. Also, today she had an out of town meeting that she had to go to for the next two days. She had to leave soon, and he was still asleep. She thought it was due to another late night of training.

Deciding that he had slept long enough, and wanting to tell him what she discovered before she left, she headed for the guest room. After knocking, she entered without waiting for a reply.

"Trunks, you've slept long enou…" She trailed off, seeing the room empty. She blinked in surprise. When had he gotten up? She hadn't seen him today.

Thinking he was training again, she went to check the special training room she had designed. He wasn't there, nor was he anywhere else she looked. Had he gone out?

She wondered if 18 knew where he was. She was still asleep as well, which was strange since sleep was not required, she only would sleep until morning during the times she did sleep. Maybe she went out too, probably off to train somewhere with Trunks.

Making her way to Trunks' old room, she repeated the process of knocking and entering without waiting for a reply. "Hey, 18, do you know where…?"

She trailed off again. Not because there was no one in the room, but because someone whoshouldn't be in the room was in there.

Trunks and 18 were in bed together. They were both asleep, and they were both, she gasped, completely naked.

In a state of shock, she slowly exited the room and closed the door. Leaning against the wall for support, she tried to comprehend what she had just seen. Her son, and the android, together, in bed, naked. Things began to add up as her shocked brain started to put the pieces together.

Just to make sure she hadn't imagined it, she looked in the room again to make sure she hadn't been seeing things. Nope, it wasn't her imagination. The two were spooned together, Trunks holding 18 tightly and securely in his arms. Both were asleep, and both had a smile on their face.

Unable to look any longer, she retreated from the room and closed the door. She suddenly felt sick. Her son was screwing the android, and had been for who knew how long. The thought repulsed her. Why of all people did it have to be 18? Truthfully, she had never even considered this situation. The possibility of the two getting together had never once occurred to her.

She now realized that for someone so smart, she had been really stupid. Trunks was a healthy young man, and a saiyan no less. Saiyans had a hungry appetite, and not just for food and training. How could her son resist such a gorgeous woman? Android or not, 18 was incredibly beautiful. It had been really stupid to allow the two to live together in the same house. And then there had been their little space voyage to Namek. True, Dende had been with them on the way back, but that had still left the two of them completely alone for two whole months.

Bulma pinched the bridge of her nose, feeling a headache coming on. Ok, maybe things weren't as bad as they seemed. Maybe, hopefully, what they had was purely physical and nothing else. If that was the case, then she would push Trunks into finding a human girlfriend as soon as possible.
