Just wanted to say thank you VERY much for the lovely reviews! There were quite a few endless possibilities as to how Chi-Chi could have reacted. I'm happy that you guys are okay with it !

Onto the story!

~-Z-~

There was something definitely up. Vegeta knew it. He tried to mute out the loud music as everyone danced. It was Gohan's Kami-knows-what birthday and everyone had gathered to party. Although it took some convincing on Bulma's behalf, since Trunks was busy writing exams. Vegeta couldn't help but hate the fact that his wife had given in so easily. He would've preferred a quiet night.

Yet, he couldn't help but eye his son as he danced with the crowd. He stiffened when he noticed how closely the two boys danced. By now, he knew this was not normal behaviour. As the months went by he knew something was going down between them. He could no longer hide it. The little voice inside of his head pointed bright arrows and signs at Goten and Trunks. But he couldn't understand why. His son would've come forth and told him by now... would he?

"Vegeta..." Bulma growled seductively. Vegeta snarled, already smelling the amount of alcohol coming off his wife. In some ways he disliked it when she became frisky with the excess amount of alcohol.

"Papa! Come dance with me!" Bulla begged, grabbing his arm.

"Absolutely not!" Vegeta growled, sitting deeper into his seat.

"I'll dance with you!" Trunks called out. Goten joined in with Pan too. They couldn't help but laugh as things seemed almost like déjà vu from the year before, except a month earlier.

"So, I was thinking," Bulma spoke through the music. "We should start planning a graduation gift for Trunks..."

"Woman..."

"Yeah, yeah, I know. But once he finished his exams, we all know he'll be going straight back to work. So, we might as well get him something,"

"Get him a strip club for the night," Yamcha joked, budging into the conversation.

"Absolutely not! Vulgar man!" Vegeta hissed.

Bulma chuckled, looking over to her two children dancing with Goten and Pan.

"Yeah, maybe a strip club would be good. He hasn't brought home any girls for such a long time,"

In that instant Yamcha gulped, "wait, actually, don't hire a strip club! I don't think he'll like that,"

"And why not?" Bulma crossed her arms.

"Uhh... well..." Yamcha stuttered.

"Give him a couple of condoms, a few bottles of wine and a night alone. I think he'll be super happy then!" Krillin quickly spoke for Yamcha's sake.

"Well that's pathetic," Bulma scoffed.

"That's what all the kids are getting these days," Krillin quickly added.

"No... I think Trunks needs something better," Bulma thought. "Oh, I know!"

Vegeta turned, eyeing his wife. He hoped it wouldn't be another Kami-awful party.

"We'll hold him a Capsule Corp party!"

He groaned. –Spoke too soon.-

"Another party?" Krillin asked.

"Yeah! But this time, we can have a bunch of workers come over too. I needed to arrange a get-together with everything in order to congratulate Trunks into having part ownership with the company,"

"Don't you think he's a little young?" Gohan asked, leaning over the table to grab a piece of left-over food.

"Not at all! Trunks is very responsible. I think he can handle it. Maybe throw in a few speeches too,"

"You sure? Last time we had a meeting he seemed pretty flustered about the whole ordeal,"

"We made an agreement that he'll only be doing assistant work. I'm sure by next year or so he'll get the hang of it,"

"If you ask me, it's a lame graduation gift," Krillin mumbled. "I still say go for the condoms and booze idea,"

"No! I mean, sure, I'll think about it... But the Capsule Corp function sounds neat!" Stars shun in Bulma's eyes.

"Hey Bulma!" Chi-Chi called over her friend. Bulma stood up, stumbling her way towards Chi-Chi, Videl, Marron and 18 for another chat.

Vegeta heard a small squeal from one of the girls and watched them in the corner of his eye. He wondered what the random squeal was for – until he turned his head slightly more. He stiffened as he saw the quick affection happen before his eyes.

Trunks had leaned over and given Goten a kiss on the cheek.

Gohan gulped, wanting to growl at the boys for being so careless. "So Vegeta..." He quickly caught the man's attention.

"What!" Vegeta snarled. Gohan saw the fire in his eyes. He whimpered slightly, wondering what was going to happen next.

"How's the training going!" Goku quickly budged in, eyeing Gohan. Gohan quickly nodded, racing towards the buffet table.

He had to think of something quick to distract Vegeta. Something that will shock the man out of his wits and make him forget whatever had happened between the two boys. He eyed the tall glass, only one thing coming to mind. –Might as well!- He spoke inwardly.

Quickly he grabbed the glass, filling it with a few shots of some alcohol he never had drunken before. He tried picking the strongest stuff that he could find, finishing it off with a nice dosage of beer.

"Vegeta, you should try some of this! It's a really good mixture of beer!" Gohan spoke, forcing the glass into the man's hand. Vegeta eyed him suspiciously.

"Seriously, it's really good!" Gohan tried to be convincing. Vegeta still eyed the younger man suspiciously as he took a sip of the drink. He smirked, enjoying the taste. In one gulp he drank the rest, licking his lips eagerly.

"Was indeed," he agreed.

Yamcha's eyes bulged when he saw the smile plastered onto Vegeta's face. He looked over towards Gohan. Gohan just shrugged his shoulders, watching Vegeta's face brighten like a red tomato.

Goku carried on the conversation, talking about random things that popped into his mind. Gohan sighed in relief as the minutes passed, watching the man slightly start swaying and the odd chuckle leaving his mouth.

Trunks and Goten owed him big time. He just hoped the drink was strong enough. He would hate to know what Vegeta was going to do to him for spiking the drink.

With Trunks and Goten on his mind, he turned his face, looking for the two boys. A smile grew on his face as he saw the two boys on the other side of the room. They stood out of the lights, making it nearly impossible for others to see what they were doing. Gohan shook his head, chuckling as he looked away from the two boys who were obliviously kissing.

He couldn't help but enjoy the fact that they were free enough to do something like that. But something inside of him still hitched as Vegeta and Bulma came to his mind. He knew the longer Trunks kept it a secret from them, the angrier both of them would be. He sighed, wishing he could give Trunks that bit of confidence he really needed for the final step. He hoped for Trunks' sake, it was going to end well.
