The sky was an impossible shade of deep indigo; the stars glittering in the velvet darkness as far as they could see. The moon, full and heavy, sat low on the horizon casting an ethereal silver glow across the night blackened expanse of ocean churning below the cliff.

Jiara gasped as a wave crashed against the rocks beneath them sending a spray of water high into the air. Caught in the moonlight, each drop sparkled magically for a moment before cascading downwards to the ocean once more.

" So, what do you think? " Goten smiled as he stood behind her and slipped his arms around her waist.

" I have never seen anything quite like it. It feels like you could touch the stars from up here. "

The words were spoken in a wistful manner, soft and sweet with a child like vulnerability. Goten hugged her nuzzling her neck and relishing the perfection of the moment. He'd never been so happy in his life. She was everything he ever could have wanted in a mate, and he vowed then and there that he would fight to keep her in his life.

He laughed quietly, " Maybe we should try. "

" It could be fun to try, " she mused, then with the next breath, " It is so beautiful. I could stay up here forever. "

" Hey, we could try that, too. "

He couldn't see the bittersweet smile that touched her lips at his words, or the pained flash in her eyes that passed so quickly that it seemed an illusion lending doubt to the fact that it had happened at all.

Jiara turned around in his arms locking gazes with the demi-Saiya-jin. Goten lifted a hand to rest beneath her chin tilting her head back slowly before leaning down to press his mouth against her willing lips.

He lightly caressed her cheek as the kiss deepened. The cool night air danced around them damp and heavy with the thick salt scent of the ocean waters. She pressed her body closer to his as he trailed kisses along her jaw to the sensitive flesh of her throat.

She whimpered softly when he nipped the tender skin and tangled her fingers into his thick black hair. He could feel her heartbeat quicken as he placed feather-light kisses along her collarbone until he reached the hollow of her throat.

Goten leaned up then, catching the expression of pleasure of her face. The very sight of her made his heart race, " Jiara, " he whispered, voice rough with desire, " I - I love you. You know that, right? "

She leaned up until her lips were a breath away from his ear, " I know, Goten, and I love you, too. "

Those were the only words he needed to hear. Goten swept her into his strong arms and captured her mouth once more with an almost desperate abandon. He proceeded to lay her in the soft grass never breaking the kiss as his hands moved to unfasten the buttons of her top.

He fumbled just a bit at the task, his hands shaking slightly with a nervous excitement. Her eyes were closed, lips parted just so; her chest rising and falling quickly with every breath.

Goten slipped the shirt from her body marveling in the sight of her lean, shapely form glistening in moonlight. He leaned down and softly kissed her nose, her lips then her chin; inch by inch he traced the path until his mouth came to rest on the full swell of one breast still encased in burgundy silk.

For several moments he lingered there, lips caressing the softly perfumed skin while one hand stole upwards to brush over the hardening bud of the other breast. She writhed beneath his tender, curious manipulations; her little gasps fueling his explorations.

Jiara bit her lower lip and her body trembled as his hands reached around to unclasp her bra. Then he pulled his own shirt off as she watched with an innocent sense of awe. He was a magnificent sight silhouetted against the star laden sky. The perfect definition of his body, the stray lock of dark hair falling into passion filled eyes and his lips pursed in anticipation made her ache for his touch.

She reached out tentatively to trail her fingertips across his chest jumping when he caught his breath sharply at her gentle caress. He quickly covered her body with his own, a low growl emitting from his throat as flesh met flesh.

Slowly, sweetly they explored one another, touching, tasting...loving every subtle nuance of this extraordinary experience. The waves crashed below them; their roar mingling with the soft cries and whispers elicited from the pair.

Despite their excitement, each was content to savor the exquisite sensations aroused by the other. Goten was especially careful with her; she seemed even more vulnerable than ever laying beneath him below the endless expanse of night.

Soon every bit of clothing was tossed aside, forgotten, and their desire had escalated to an undeniable need for completion. Goten kneeled, poised between her thighs, gazing down at her, " Are you sure this is what you want? "

She nodded in response her hands on his shoulders pulling him towards her. He kissed her deeply pressing against her opening, trying to tamper his excitement. He was afraid of hurting her, but she wrapped her legs around his waist and arched her body forcing his entry.

" Jiara! " he half groaned, half shouted against her mouth as she cried out with the sudden pain.

Her nails dug into the flesh of his back; every muscle tensed as her body shook beneath his. He stayed motionless until he felt her relax, then gently he began to move against her.

She matched her movements meet his; slow, tentative strokes allowing her body to adjust to his size. Their leisurely pace was soon hastened by their passion though, and his cautious ministrations turned to an almost desperate, instinct driven motion. Her sounds of pleasure were muffled by his lips; his own growl merging with those cries and the sound of crashing waves. One arm slipped around her waist, lifting her from the ground to press against him as he withdrew, hesitating briefly before thrusting into her depths a final time.

They climaxed together, bodies trembling in the ecstasy of release. He laid her down before collapsing in the grass and gathering her into his arms.

" Where could they be? It's almost midnight! "

Videl smiled and set her book aside, " I wouldn't worry so much, Chi Chi. They're two young kids out on a date. They'll be home soon. "

" Well, they better be. It's not right for them to worry me like this. Goten may be eighteen, but that doesn't mean that he should stay out until all hours of the night, and with that girl no less. I don't even know how old she is! "

Gohan was standing in the hallway and overheard the conversation between his wife and his mother. He wasn't so sure that everything was fine. After the incident last night, it was possible that something bad had happened.

He wished that he'd known the two planned on taking off for the day. From the moment he found out, he'd wondered if it was safe considering the circumstances. But Goku had let them go thinking nothing of two teens wanting to spend the day together, and he'd allowed it. Sometimes he thought that his dad was too naive for his own good, never considering the terrible possibilities intertwined with seemingly good intentions.

Gohan went to the kitchen where his dad was enjoying a late night snack.

" Hey, Gohan! Hungry? I have plenty of food here. "

" No, not right now. Um, did you know that Goten and Jiara haven't come home yet? " He pulled out a chair and sat at the table a worried frown creasing his brow.

" Really? " Goku glanced at the clock with a similar frown. " I hope everything is okay. They've been gone for quite a while."

" I was thinking that maybe we should go look for them. "

Taking another bite of his sandwich Goku looked thoughtfully at the ceiling. " That's not a bad idea... "

" GOHAN! "

Both men jumped up when they heard Videl shouting from the living room. They ran to see what the problem was.

" Wait! "

Goku and his son stopped short when they saw the girl standing in the doorway.

" You! " shouted Gohan allowing his energy level to flare.

" Damn it, Gohan! Stop! You have to listen to me. "

" Just who the hell are you? " demanded Videl crossing her arms and glaring.

" That's why I'm here, " her gaze darted nervously around the room. " I have a lot to tell you. "

" A lot to tell me? " Gohan asked with a puzzled frown, " About what? "

" Not just you, " she shook her head and walked further into the house oblivious to the warning stares she was getting from Videl and Chi Chi. " She's not here? "

" I'm guessing that you mean Jiara, " Goku said watching the girl carefully. There was something familiar about her, but he couldn't pinpoint it. Something about her appearance and the way she moved. He shook his head slightly to clear the thought turning his attention back to the girl.

" Yes, Jiara. Who else? " She stopped and looked at the small group impatiently, " Is she here or not? "

" No, " Videl replied quietly, " she's out. " This was the first time that she really stopped to look at the girl, and an odd feeling stirred within her. She was transfixed by the stranger standing in the center of the room.

" I think you owe us some answers, " snapped Gohan glancing at Videl's expression curiously.

" Yes, like why you and your boyfriend destroyed my home " shouted Chi Chi, " and almost killed my family! "

" Will everyone just calm down? " the stranger sighed tapping her boot against the floor.

" Yeah, guys, " Goku stated in a sober, even tone, " I think we better listen to what she has to say. "

All of the others, aside from the girl, looked at him in surprise. A shadow of a smile touched her lips as she faced them, " My name is Aurora, and I'm Goku and Chi Chi's great, great, great granddaughter. "
