Warning: some bad words.


A few weeks after the picnic Trunks and Goten are having a friendly chat at Capsule Corporation. They are relaxing at the front lawn when someone parked in the driveway. They both looked as a tall, dark and handsome young man got out of the car and starts to walk towards the entrance of the house.
"Hey, who is that?" Goten asked curiously.
"Oh, just some guy Bra is dating," answered Trunks casually glancing at his friend, "Why... What's wrong?" He inquired when he saw Gotens' astonished yet bothered expression.
"Since when did Bra start dating? And I thought your father doesn't let her go out yet!!" snarled Goten. He doesn't really know why this is bothering him so much. He felt something inside him tighten at the idea of Bra having a boyfriend.
"Actually this is their first date. You wouldn't believe the way my dad interrogated him. Honestly, I didn't know how he survived." Informed Trunks while gazing at his friend oddly having no inkling why Goten should be so upset about what he told him.
"So he beat him up eh" Goten assumed with a smile on his face. He couldn't help but be pleased at hearing this news. The idea of that guy suffering is rather appealing to him.
"Not really but...." Trunks is interrupted when Bra came out of the house and walks in their direction.
"Hi guys" greeted Bra when she reached them. "I would like you to meet Matt," she said motioning to his date. Glancing at Matt she said, "Matt, you already know my brother", she said pointing at Trunks and looking in the direction of Goten she says, "This is our friend Goten". She has not seen him since the picnic; she wasn't sure of his reaction to what her father did. But noticing his expression she can tell that he is still irritated about the whole incident.
"Nice meeting you" Matt said offering his hand at Goten. Noticing that the other person is not going to shake his hands he slowly put it down.
Goten looked at Matt and just nodded. His mother brought her up with manners but he could not bring himself to acknowledge, much less touch Bras' date.
"I think we better go" Bra piped in "bye guys" she is puzzled by Gotens reactions to Matt. . If Goten was angry with her dad he shouldn't take it out on her date. She is getting annoyed with his attitude, besides he is the reason why she is going out in the first place .She then decided to just forget about Goten and have a good time.

Meanwhile Trunks was babbling about something but Goten wasn't paying attention. He is still looking at the two retrieving figure. Suddenly an idea entered his mind. "Um, Trunks, I've got to go" Goten told his best friend absent-mindedly.
"What? I thought you are going to stay for dinner," Trunks said questioningly.
"I just remembered that my mom gave me an errand to do." Goten lied smoothly.
"Oh well, I guess I'll just see you around then " Trunks said disappointment apparent in his voice.
Gotten just nodded distractedly as he starts to fly in the direction Bra and her date went. Goten decided to follow Bra and Matt. He fells really guilty for leaving Trunks and lying to him but he still pursues the couple to see where they are going.

Bra and Matt went to see a movie and eat dinner at a romantic restaurant; Matt held Bra's hand and started to say sweet stuff to her. While Gotten is still spying, he is really annoyed on what he is seeing and that he is becoming uneasy on the situation. After eating they went home and Matt gave Bra a goodbye kiss.

Seeing this Gotten started to flare up and became so furious. Then Bra went inside and Matt left. Gotten started thinking why he is feeling these things, is it jealousy or just brotherly love. He convinced himself that its just because he is just trying to protect her because Trunks and Vegita is not doing a very good job at it. He decides to talk to Trunks to tell him what he just witnessed. He went to Trunks rooms' window and saw him lying on the bed. He knocked and Trunks let him in.

"What are you doing here I thought you had some things to do for your mom" Ask Trunks.
"Forget about that! I have more important things to tell you, I just saw Matt kissing your little sister, and it's only their first date!" Goten said furiously.
"Whoa..........calm down listen to yourself are you jealous or something. It's just a kiss nothing to worry about." Trunks said mockingly, his suspicions earlier about Gotens feelings for Bra is confirmed.
"What kind of a guy would kiss his date on their first date?!" Goten said getting mad because Trunks was acting like nothing out of the ordinary is happening.
"Since you asked...well, I've always known you to kiss girls on your first date sometimes you do even more." Said trunks being honest to his friend. "She was...um, cooperating, wasn't she?" Trunks asked.
"Well yeah, but that's not the point!" said gotten furiously.
"What is your point exactly?" asked Trunks who is getting amused at Goten's reaction.
Goten growled and said to Trunks in a maddened voice, "If you're not going to do anything about this I'm just going to have to talk to your dad!"
"Be my guest, he's in the gravity room you know where it is... But on second thought I think I'll come with you" Trunks said goading. "This sounds interesting and I wouldn't miss it for the world".


Vegita is training in the gravity room when Trunks and Goten interrupted him. What now? He asked himself. Can't a guy have any peace around here? There's always someone to disturb him with his or her problems. He doesn't understand why these humans always make a big deal out of every little thing. He decided to ignore them until his son said something that piqued his interest.

"Dad, Goten wants to talk to you about Bra's date " Trunks said with a silly smile on his face.
"Oh" Vegita answered as if he didn't give a damn.
"Yes, well you see I just saw that Matt guy kiss your daughter and as I understand it its only their first date. I thought you'd like to know since Trunks here is acting as if it's nothing." Goten said without the pleasantries and getting to the matter at hand.
"And how may I ask did you know this?" He really didn't need to ask this question because he already knew the answer. He was about to follow his daughter and the stupid date when he felt a familiar ki. And by what he can tell the person following is not happy at the couple. It looks like his plan is going accordingly.
"Well..I..um..kinda followed them," whispered the blushing Goten.
"What did you say?" Vegita asked pretending not to hear what the boy said. "Hmn, I don't see why my daughter's love life is any of your business anyway" He said crossing his arms and then he looked at Goten thoughtfully and said "Oh I see what this is about, you don't want her but you don't like anybody else to have her either".
"Wh..what are y..you talking a..about?!" Goten stuttered looking as if he is going to have a heart attack.
Vegita tried not to smile and looked at his son as he threw his head back and started laughing hard. So the boy knows, he's always been a quick one.
Goten looked at them as if they were crazy. "I'm just looking out for her well being, you know," he said looking at them both.
"Hmn, we'll see" Vegita said as he walked out of the gravity room and left his laughing son and the confused Goten. He hoped that idiot gets a clue from what he just said.
Goten realized that he would not get any help from Vegita. And decided to talk to Bra himself. But not today because he really got confused about what Vegita told him. He always thought of Bra as a little sister why would anyone think that he would want her. Sure he's been acting strange all day but that doesn't mean that he is jealous. I'm not, right? He asked himself. He decided to go home and think.

The next day Bra is at her room when she suddenly hears a knock on her window. Seeing that it is Goten, she felt her heart skip a bit. She has been trying to forget about him, but it is hard when she sees him all the time. Like yesterday, she was really looking forward to her date. She thinks Matt is nice plus he's the only one her dad approves of. Then she saw Goten and forgets about Matt altogether. All the time during her date there wasn't a moment that she wished that she were with Goten instead of Matt. And in a way Goten was with her. She felt his ki following them. So trying to make Goten jealous she let Matt hold her hands and kiss her. She knows it wasn't fair to her date but she couldn't help but feel a little hope that Goten feels the same way she does. Another knock on the window took her out of her reverie. She opened it and let Goten in her room.
"What's up?" Bra questioned.
"Well I want to talk to you about your date last night." Goten answered while sitting on her bed. "I couldn't help but noticed that you really like that Matt guy."
"Yeah, so...what's your point? Bra asked peculiarly.
"I don't think you should go out on a date with him again." Goten said quietly.
"What?!" Bra shouted getting hopeful and excited at the same time. This is it she thought he's going to tell her that he likes her too.
"Well...you see I've always thought of you as my sister, I'm concern about you...And I think that guy is a jerk." Goten told her.
Bra felt like someone just hit her and with that she lost all her hope that Goten might feel something for her other than a sisterly affection. She felt something inside her snap and said angrily "how dare you presume to tell me whom to date! I am not asking for your approval to go out with someone I like!"
"Damn it Bra! You deserve someone much better than him," Goten said getting angry as well.
"I don't see why my love life should be any concern of yours. You have no right to do this to me!" Bra said heatedly at Goten.
Goten stood up and grabbed Bras' shoulder and started to shake her and said furiously "You cant be with him! I wont allow it!".
"Why ?! Why is this bothering you so much?! What do you care?! Heck, even my brother wasn't this upset when he found out I was allowed to date! Why should you? Tell Me!" She asked anxiously. Goten just stared at her not letting go of her shoulders. She saw the confusion on his eyes and said, "you know what I think? Your jealous and you just don't want to admit it to yourself!"
Goten let go of her, shocked that Bra would say such a thing and said, "you're crazy! Why would I be jealous its not like I don't have a girlfriend of my own."
All the anger left Bra and she looks like she's just been defeated and said in a quiet voice "of course you do, how can I forget. It's good that you're happy and have someone in you life but don't you think I deserve the same". Goten just stood there not saying a word looking at her as if seeing her for the first time. "Just go and leave me alone. Go visit your girlfriend or something." She said sadly and turns her back at Goten.

Goten didn't know what to say so he just decided to leave and follow her advice. He doesn't remember when Bra stated to grow up. But for the first time he saw her as an adult, wanting what everybody seeks for. A love to make them so happy they can almost burst. He stated to think about what she said about his relationship with her girlfriend. Asking him self if he is really contented with Daphne. He is so confused.
