My name won't be found anywhere, so don't bother suing… all you'll get is the 38 cents in my pocket. No wait... I'm down to 18 cents.

"Good morning sunshine." Bulma purred softly in her lover's ear. He grunted, without opening his eyes.

"I wasn't expecting to find you here. Would you like some breakfast?"

"If I'm in the bed, I imagine I would like to sleep."

"If you wanted to sleep, you would have stayed in your own bed last night."

"Last night I wanted sex. Now I want sleep." Bulma fell silent, much to Vegeta's pleasure.

"So…"

"Shut. Up." No response. Finally!

"So…" He threw up his hands in defeat before turning a weary glare at his blue haired pain in the ass.

"I just want to know if you gave Skuld a room last night. You came up and I forgot to do it. I hope you didn't leave her to sleep on the couch." She took his continued silent fuming as a negative. "What the hell! You could have at least done that!"

"I gave her a room."

"Really? That was uncharacteristically nice of you." He rolled his eyes before closing them.

"If I didn't, I ran the risk of having her come in here by accident and I don't like getting caught with my dick out. Now shut up."

"Oh." She was silent as she lay back down beside him. "Vegeta?"

"Bulma…", he warned. She snuggled herself against him and with an irritated growl, he cradled her with his arm. Her smile told him that was all she wanted and she'd finally leave him be.

What Bulma didn't know, was that Vegeta had only fallen asleep a few hours before. He'd been listening for signs of struggle in the next room. Before that, to ensure Bulma was unaware of any sounds coming from next door, he'd effectively forced her into a deep exhausted sleep by most efficiently pounding her into the mattress.

He'd surprised her in the first place by showing up. Don't you have a bed, she'd hissed. It's cold tonight, he'd said simply, pulling the covers back from her body. She smiled. The words he'd spoken when he first came to her. He claimed she'd be a poor hostess to let her guest freeze and he wouldn't be a man to allow a woman to shiver alone in bed when he was there to keep her warm. It was almost romantic. That was until it was done and he left. She regretted remembering that part, but opened her arms to him just the same.

He'd come into the room the young ones shared, to wake them early. The last thing he needed was his woman bitching at him first thing in the morning. The two of them really were sickening together. Seeing them wrapped around each other on top of the sheets gave him a warm feeling in the pit of his stomach he identified as nausea. The boy had his body curved behind hers, one hand on her stomach, the other on her hip. Vegeta rolled his eyes. Oh please…

He moved next to the bed and crossed his arms. He glanced at the window, sniffing the air to confirm his suspicions. The boy had pussied out and passed the opportunity to become a man that Vegeta had provided him. Helping people is such bullshit.

Gohan's eyelids fluttered open as he registered the presence in the room. He smiled sheepishly but didn't disengage himself from Skuld. He mouthed a `good morning', receiving a sneer from the older Saiyajin.

"Get out. Now." Gohan glanced to the window, noticing that the sun was probably less than two hours from rising. He gently pulled himself away from Skuld, causing her to stir. She yawned and stretched her body, upset at the loss of heat.

"Morning Skuld."

"It's still dark dummy. Go to sleep."

"I gotta go home. I'll be back later." He gathered his clothes and went into the bathroom as she sat up, realizing Vegeta was in the room. Her face flushed red and as she inhaled to scream, Vegeta was in front of her with his hand clamped over her mouth.

"You shut up and go back to sleep. No noise from either of you." Skuld nodded. "Good." With that, he was gone.

"I can't believe he saw me in my panties!" she whispered fiercely. Gohan poked his head into the room and smiled. "What are you grinning about! Go home!" She crossed her arms over her chest and flopped back against the pillows.

Bulma hummed along to the CD she was playing as she scrambled a second dozen eggs. She danced as she scrambled, singing along at the top of her lungs. Trunks in his highchair behind her laughed and banged a spoon against the surface. After pouring the eggs into a plate, she gave Trunks another spoon.

"You can be my drummer baby." He merrily made as much noise as possible. She just laughed and kissed his forehead.

"Good morning Miss Bulma!"

"Well aren't you chipper this morning. Had some sweet dreams last night?" Skuld blushed and nodded. "I had a nice dream myself…" Something was up. Bulma wasn't world renown for being a genius without reason. "So, what time did Gohan go home? Well, I'm sure ChiChi will call to yell at me later."

"Why would she yell at you?"

"She wants him to spend his time studying so he can get into the best universities. Do you go to school Skuld?"

"No. I guess I would know more things about Earth if I did, but education is different in Heaven. I'm a system debugger and hardware specialist for the most complex computer in the universe. So I don't think I'd fit in well."

"At your age? Well, perhaps you should tell ChiChi. She'd love to know Gohan's girlfriend is so intelligent." Skuld blushed again, but didn't deny the statement. "So he asked you to be his girlfriend last night didn't he?" Bulma sighed. "How sweet. Young love. I remember when Yamucha and I started out. It was so sweet. He was really nervous around girls but after a while, he opened up and suddenly all he wanted to do was make out." She eyed Skuld suspiciously.

"What's `make out'?" Bulma smiled and as she and Skuld set the table. She told Skuld the difference between `making out' and `making love', hoping Skuld would tell her what's up.

"Is that all women ever talk about?"

"Good morning Mr. Vegeta!"

"Morning…" Bulma's suspicious eye slipped from Skuld to Vegeta. His face was like stone, meaning his mind was cranking in overtime. Something was up and he was involved. Just as she put the last of the food on the table, there was a knock at the door. "Now I wonder who would come straight to the back door?" She glanced at Skuld who only smiled. Of course its Gohan, who the hell else would it be? She opened the door to the grinning Son. "Gohan, what did I tell you about calling first?"

"Sorry, I forgot." He looked past her and smiled at Skuld.

"Come on in. We're just sitting down to breakfast. There's plenty."

"No, there isn't. Go eat your own food."

"Hi Mr. Vegeta." Vegeta glared at the boy as he took a seat next to Skuld. Bulma eyed them as she forked eggs into he mouth. The two adolescents were stealing glances and blushing up to their ears. She and Yamucha had reacted the exact same way the around her parents the morning after they… Bulma turned to Vegeta who was ignoring everyone. He blinked when his son threw a demolished spoon at his head. She smiled as he glared at his son, and his son mimicking him. She watched until he continued to eat.

"So did you two have a good time last night?" All forks stopped mid-mouth save Bulma who calmly continued eating. Busted!

"Y…yeah. We talked until late last night. Then I… I saw the time and had to rush home."

"Gohan, Skuld, it's really a beautiful morning. There's nothing nicer for a young couple than a romantic walk." Gohan looked at his remaining breakfast. "You can eat it later. I think you should go now before a sudden rain shower comes or something." They took the hint. Vegeta glared at her waiting for the yelling to commence. She placed her face in her hands and sighed. "Just what were you thinking? Encouraging them to have sex Vegeta?! They're minors! Children! I think what you did last night is illegal! Is that what you'll do when our son hits puberty! Pimp some innocent girl off to him!"

"I didn't `pimp' her. They were going to do it anyway! Besides, he's not a child anymore! He saved your entire miserable planet. You and his mother both need to stop babying him." Bulma blinked. He actually cares how Gohan is raised? "He's a Saiyajin warrior for fuck's sake! Do you think I'd sit here and let you pathetic humans destroy what little warrior spirit he was left?! I'd kill you before I let you coddle my son into a weakling like ChiChi does to Gohan."

"Vegeta… I didn't know you felt that way." Another spoon hit Vegeta in the side of the head. Trunks laughed. They both sighed, the tension fizzling out of the air.

"Look, not that I care what you or anyone else thinks of me, but I am a prince and that boy is one of my last subjects."

"What about me?" She asked softly.

"I don't have to explain myself to you or anyone else. I'm going to train now."

"Vegeta?" He paused at the door. "Um, Trunks is getting really strong and I think he'll hurt someone someday if he can't control himself. I saw how hard the spoons hit you. He's walking a little now…"

"I will train him."

"Thank you. I wouldn't want that strength to go to waste. You can be a great warrior like your daddy," she said as she opened a jar of food. Now that his spoons were gone, he was beginning to whimper to be fed. Vegeta stayed in the doorway for a moment before flying off.

"I think Bulma knows what we did." They sat on the crest of a grassy hill just on the edge of Capsule Corps property.

"You think?" Skuld muttered with a roll of her eyes as she laid her head on Gohan's shoulder. They stayed in silence for a few moments. "Gohan, we're going to go to the place you told me about today, right?"

"Yeah… Skuld, you're from Heaven, right?" He lay back on the grass, taking Skuld with him. She nodded against his chest. "Could you do something for me while you're trying to contact them?"

"You want to give a message to your father?"

"Yeah."

"Of course I will. I'd have to find him first though. The part of Heaven that the Almighty resides in isn't where souls go, but I will find him for you."

"Thanks Skuld. You're the best."

"So, do you think we're in trouble?"

"Only if my mother finds out. I can just hear it already…" Gohan sighed. ChiChi would throw a fit like never seen before if she knew her son had bypassed studying to lay in bed with a girl. She'd probably flip to know I touched a girl at all when I could have been studying instead.

Gohan's hands began to explore her side as his mind wandered. Their hands continued to roam each other as they stole chaste little kisses. After a minute or two of that, Gohan's tongue touched Skuld's. She pulled back and with a look of surprise on her face, before smiling and returning the gesture. As their kiss deepened, Gohan drew her closer, wrapping his arms around, his hands traveling her flesh a little more desperately. He positioned them so she was sitting astride his lap. His hands found their way beneath her blouse.

"Ahem…" came a familiar baritone. Gohan's eyes widened and he pulled away from her. "Your mother sent me to look for you. She's pissed at you kid." Piccolo turned his lip up in disgust and Gohan realized Skuld was sitting on him. After gently pushing her off, he wished he hadn't. Piccolo turned his back as he noticed the evidence of the boy's excitement. "I guess I don't have to ask what you're doing here."

"Piccolo I have to help Skuld today." Piccolo's eyebrow rose slightly. Since when had the boy disregarded his mother's wrath? "You see, she needs to go to the lookout. Can you take us there?"

"I don't see why not."

"Hopefully I'll be able to reach Heaven."

"Heaven?" Piccolo turned to them and looked Skuld over. "She's dead? How is she here?"

"I was born in Heaven, Mr. Piccolo. I'm a goddess."

"Goddess?" She nodded. "That explains how you just appeared here I guess. So you're trying to get back then?"

"Yes. Well, I'm at least trying to contact them so they can find a way to open whatever rift allowed me here in the first place."

"I see." To Gohan, "Your mother is having conniptions. You should go home soon."

"I will. After I help Skuld. And if it doesn't work out today, I'm taking her home with me." Piccolo just shook his head.

"How soon do you need to go?"

"Um, I guess now is good."

"I'll get Miss Bulma." With that Skuld was up and flying back towards the house.

"At least we don't have to carry her."

"Well, I might. She flies, but not very fast on her own."

"I see." A pause. "So…" Piccolo felt he should say something about… well… Nameks were asexual, so what could he possibly say to the boy. Since his father was gone, Piccolo felt it was only right that he say something. "You seem rather… taken with her." Piccolo would have sworn the `caught with a hand in the cookie jar' smile was exclusive to the Son men.

"Yeah, she's really great and she's pretty and brilliant. She's a computer specialist already where she's from. She's not in school or anything. I guess she was home schooled like I am." Gohan paused, catching himself before he rambled anymore.

"You aren't in love with her, are you?" Gohan's eyebrows knitted in concern.

"What's wrong with that?"

"You just met her and she's leaving. Possibly even today. She'll never be back here either if it was a freak accident that allowed her in."

"It wasn't an accident. It was fate. Like Trunks being born so he could warn us about the androids. I was meant to meet her."

"Gohan…" Just then Skuld landed beside the two.

"They said they'd be ready in the hour and Mr. Vegeta agreed to come along too!" She said with a grin.

"He agreed?" Piccolo asked, taken aback by all the insanity going on around him.

"Miss Bulma kind of agreed for him." She giggled. "This is so exciting!" She looked thoughtful for a moment. "I hope the program runs properly."

"Program?" The two males gave each other a sidelong glance.

"Yeah. My sisters and I ran this program before to connect to Yggdrasil. It was a big mess, but we got through." Her shoulders slumped. "But then my sisters are so much more powerful than I am. I hope I can do it on my own."

"Of course you can. I'll help you." Skuld raised and eyebrow.

"Just how do you propose to do that?" He shrugged. "I thought so," she said dryly. Suddenly she smiled and threw her arms around him. "You're such a dummy. You know there's nothing you can do, but you try anyhow. Thank you Gohan." Piccolo felt his lip curl higher than ever.

"Can you two paw each other some other time?" The two just smiled through blushes.

"So exactly what are we going to do Skuld?"

"We are going to hack the most complex system in all existence." Gohan just blinked. "It's not as bad as it sounds. The program just forces a connection and uploads my message. They'll see it and then they will figure a way to get me home."

"What was that?" Skuld spun around to see Bulma standing beside Vegeta.

"I was just telling Gohan what I plan to do." Bulma looked thoughtful for a moment.

"Sounds like you'll need some sophisticated electronics for that…" Skuld's shoulders dropped slightly. She was really starting to doubt herself the more she thought about this.

"Well, normally I could make something to help me enhance my powers, but the technology I need is at home in my workshop. I'll just have to rely on myself for this…"

"We've wasted enough time!" Vegeta growled scooping Bulma up into his arms.

"Vegeta you impatient bastard! Let me say bye to my parents and Trunks first!" He ignored her. Piccolo just shook his head as the rest followed.
