A/N: Hello lovely people! I’m so, so, so, soooooo sorry it took me FOREVER to update this story! Especially to those who really look forward to it. :( I practically have to read my stories from the beginning just to get back into writing it. :/ I really, really try to work on them on the weekends because I don’t have enough time during the week and that way I can get at least one chapter written and posted for you guys. Just don’t expect it every weekend, but like I said, I’ll try. I wrote an extra-long one for ya! I hope you love it! :D
~~flashback~~~
‘thoughts’
“talking”
The next day, Vegeta woke up in the all-too-familiar room then yawned and stretched. ‘Man. I seem to sleep better whenever I’m over here.’ He sat up in bed and frowned. ‘I should probably not make a habit of this if Kakarot wants me to keep my distance.’ He looked over at the clock on the night stand next to him and sighed. ‘Damn. I slept for half the day again. I should probably get home and do my homework. I don’t want to get into more trouble than I’m already in.’ With this decision in mind, Vegeta got up and dressed in the clothes he wore the day before. When he was done, he looked down at himself. ‘Ugh, I need to shower. It’s been a couple days.’
As soon as he exited his room, he almost bumped into Kakarot. “Oh! Vegeta! I was…just going to check on you. How are you feeling?” The handsome teen asked shyly.
Vegeta briefly smiled at his crush as he shrugged on his jacket. “I’m feeling better now, thanks to you.”
Kakarot beamed another one of those smiles at him. “That’s great to hear! So, what are the plans for today?” He noted Vegeta’s attire and his enthusiasm dropped. “Are…Are you leaving?”
Vegeta couldn’t take the down-heartened look he was being given, so he turned away and sighed then rubbed the back of his neck. “Nn, yeah. I need to catch up on some homework…badly.” He kept his gaze away.
Kakarot clasped his hands nervously behind his back. “You know, you’re…more than welcome…to do it here.” The tension between them was suddenly starting to grow.
Vegeta shoved his hands in his pockets. “I don’t have it with me. It’s at home.” After a few minutes pause, Vegeta decided to look at his crush. “Kakarot, I really do appreciate all that you’ve done for me, but I need to go home now. I’ll see you tomorrow, alright?” He stared at the teen who stole his heart and waited for an answer.
Kakarot’s heart was thumping wildly in his chest in a panic. ‘What happened? Did I do something wrong? Yesterday it seemed like there was nothing wrong, now…he’s leaving to go back to…that monster. Before he would’ve done anything so he wouldn’t go home. Just what is his deal? Is it me?’ He grimaced slightly. ‘Then again, I’m not far off from a monster when it comes to fairytales…’
“Okay. I’ll…see you later then.” Vegeta said his goodbye awkwardly since the other didn’t say anything in return and turned to leave.
As soon as Vegeta reached the door, Kakarot finally found something to say, but it fell on deaf ears as the door closed, leaving him alone. “Good…bye…”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kakarot kept fidgeting nervously in his seat in class the next day and couldn’t stop looking over his shoulder to see Vegeta not even noticing him. ‘What the hell is his deal?! Just what was that earlier?!’
~~Upon entering the classroom, Kakarot noticed Vegeta entering before him and went up to him to awkwardly say hi. “G-Good morning, Vegeta. How are you?”
All he got in response was a disappointed look, but there was a blush added to that look and Vegeta went to go sit at his desk without saying a word.~~
‘Just what is going on?! Is it me?! Is it?!’ Kakarot looked over at Vegeta again for the hundredth time since class started and didn’t look away. After a few minutes, Vegeta started to get the feeling that he was being watched and couldn’t help but look in Kakarot’s direction. However, he immediately regretted it when he saw him looking straight back at him then quickly turned his attention back to the chalkboard and continued writing down notes. Kakarot narrowed his eyes at the other’s reaction, but slowly turned his attention back to the board as well. ‘I’m beginning to think it is me. Why is he avoiding me now? Was it something I said or did?’ Kakarot spent the remainder of the class period trying to think of exactly what he did until the bell rang. He sighed and gathered his things before putting them in his book bag and slung it over his shoulder like always. However, just when he turned towards the door, he saw Vegeta out of the corner of his eye, staring at him. Right when he stopped and glanced towards his direction, Vegeta seemed to snap out of it, like he got caught and quickly left the room. Kakarot stared after the other with a confused expression. ‘What the hell’s going on?’ When he was about to leave himself, he saw Broly rush on by him while giving him a glare the whole time. Kakarot gave him the same expression he sent after Vegeta just a moment ago. ‘Will someone please tell me what the hell is going on before my brain explodes?! I am not a mind reader!’
He sighed and exited out into the hallway, only to see that big brute getting sweet on the teen that’s been on his mind ever since he met him. He halted in his tracks and clutched his bag tighter, almost ripping it. Broly had Vegeta pinned between him and the lockers and just didn’t want to let him go. Vegeta had his things clutched tightly to himself to keep the idiot from getting any closer. “Didn’t we have this talk, Broly? I thought I told you to back off.” There was no threat or force in his tone. It sounded more…tired? Perhaps…there was something on his mind. “But I can’t stand being away from you for so long! Won’t you come to my place after school?” Just when Broly was about to lean in for a kiss, Kakarot started heading over there to stop it until he was stopped himself.
“Oh, don’t worry about those two, big guy. They have it out like this all the time. Everyone’s used to it.” Sentaro stood in his way.
‘Oh! It’s one of Vegeta’s friends. Uhh…what was his name?’ Kakarot sneered once he realized what the guy said. “Yeah? Well I’m not.” He was about to push the other aside when he spoke again.
“So, does this mean you have feelings for him? Vegeta I mean.” Kakarot paused in his movements as if he were completely frozen. ‘Do I? Do I have feelings for him?’ He looked back at the two arguing again, only to see Vegeta slapping the perverted teen and telling him hell no to respond to his question a moment ago. However, Kakarot didn’t know if they actually kissed or not. Sentaro smirked. “Did I hit a nerve?” Kakarot frowned, suddenly remembering the teen behind him and slowly turned towards him. “Well, in case you haven’t realized it yet, he has feelings for you too. I suggest moving quickly before someone else takes him or something bad happens.” Sentaro took a few steps away, heading toward his next class. “Usually it’s the latter, but if you plan on having a relationship with him, just so you know, something bad usually does happen to him. If you’re prepared for that then…good luck. You’ll need it.” He waved as he walked away.
Kakarot frowned after him then turned his attention to the two at the lockers, who noticed him after Sentaro left. Kakarot made a weird look and quickly walked away. Broly noticed how Vegeta was staring after that wild-headed teen and quickly turned his attention back to him by taking a hold of his chin and making him look at him. “Come on, love. You’re not seriously falling for that guy, are you? You don’t even know him! He could be dangerous for all you know and treat you wrong. You should get back with me. You know how I’ll treat you.” He finished seductively and wanted to go in and worship that lovely neck, but stopped once he noticed the hickeys. “Wha…What the hell is this?! Who did this?!” He grabbed a hold of Vegeta’s shirt and pointed at the marks.
Vegeta batted Broly’s arm away so he’d let go of him. “Damn it, Broly! Get the hell away from me! It’s none of your damn business anymore! Just leave me alone!” With that he slipped out from Broly’s barricade of a body and quickly made his way to his next class.
Broly growled after his ex and slammed a fist on a locker as the bell rang, signaling for everyone to be in class or be tardy. ‘I know. I know, Vegeta, but I’m just not ready to let you go yet. I still need you. Why can’t you see that? Why can’t we…just go back to the way we were? When we were both happy? I can tell what you’re feeling. I hate seeing you so lost and alone. I just want to protect you again and always be by your side, even though I know you’re sick of me and I’m not the best boyfriend, but I just feel like you’ll fall apart without me. Although, you probably just want someone new in your life, I can’t help but feel jealous at the thought of you wanting someone else. I guess…it’s still going to take some time for me to move on.’
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The rest of the day, all Kakarot could think about was what Sentaro said. ‘I know that. Of course I know that! I know Vegeta has feelings for me, but…I’ve never…never been with a guy before. It’d be…weird…strange. I mean, who’d be on bottom?’ Kakarot blushed profusely at that thought. ‘That’s not the point anyway! How are we supposed to act around each other? Like…a regular couple?’ Kakarot doodled on his notebook as he thought. ‘Perhaps that’s why Vegeta has been staying away from me because he knows that I wouldn’t be comfortable around him, but…I am comfortable around him and his scent. He smells wonderful and dad says that he would be a good partner because of that and I’ve already accepted the idea, but what’s holding me back? Is it because I’m thinking about it more? Maybe I should stop doing that. I should stop thinking about it and just do it. The more I think the more I hesitate and hurt Vegeta, but then again, Vegeta’s friend says trouble happens to him all the time and I believe it, since I’ve seen it and all, but maybe that’s an even more reason for me to be with him. Then again, I’m trouble as well. I mean, I’m the reason why we keep moving around all the time because I keep screwing up! I don’t know, maybe I should stay away from him, but dad already accepted it as well, so…maybe I should just go for it…yeah. Hell, we’ve already made out before and then…and then…I couldn’t control myself. What is wrong with me? Is it his scent or something else? I don’t know…I…I just don’t know!’
“Kakarot?” Said boy paused in his scribbling, which ended up tearing holes in his notebook. He looked up to see who called his name, only to see it was the teacher. “I asked you a question.”
“O-Oh! Sorry Mrs. Jones. Can you repeat it?” Kakarot blushed lightly when the whole class snickered at him. ‘I guess Sentaro was right. Just thinking about the guy is getting me into trouble.’
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
At the end of the day, Vegeta sighed in slight depression when he reached his locker. ‘I feel so bad for ignoring him like that, but…I had to do it. Then again, he wasn’t exactly going by his own words by talking to me like that, but if he cared enough to go to the party, then…no. I know what’ll happen. The moment he gets all friendly with me, I’ll do something stupid and fuck it up then we’ll be back where we started, ignoring each other, which is what I have to do now in order to end things on good-ish terms.’ “Hey, Vegeta.” Vegeta growled in annoyance and turned around to face the person that’s been getting on his nerves lately.
“Broly! How many times-!” However, he stopped short when he realized it was Sentaro.
“Long time no talk.” His friend gave him a look.
“Hehe, oh. Sorry. Hey, Sentaro. I just…have a lot on my mind lately.” Vegeta sighed and shut his locker.
Sentaro crossed his arms. “Yeah, I noticed. So, I’ve also noticed that you’re no longer talking to Kakarot.” He waited for an explanation but sighed slightly in irritation when he didn’t get one. “Come on, buddy. You can tell me.”
Vegeta sighed, preparing himself, and just when he was about to explain, the subject of their conversation marched up to them. “Uh, Vegeta, will you…will you…go out with me!” Kakarot all but shouted in his nervousness as he bowed before Vegeta.
Vegeta took a step back in surprise as Sentaro looked at the guy in shock. He didn’t think he had it in him. “Wh-What? Go out…with you?” Everyone in the hallway had stopped what they were doing to watch the scene, but neither of the two noticed.
Kakarot had his eyes squeezed shut as if expecting the worst and nodded. “Yes!”
Vegeta blushed profusely at the proposition and wanted to slap himself just to make sure this all wasn’t a dream. “But…what about all that talk? About staying away from you?”
Kakarot stood then and let out a breath he’d been holding. “Well, I decided to hell with it, since it seemed futile anyway.” He smiled knowingly.
Vegeta gasped lightly and the blushed stayed. He ducked his head slightly in his sudden shyness and smiled. “Yes. I’ll…go out with you.”
Suddenly, Kakarot smiled that brilliant smile, as if it was the best thing he ever heard in his life. “Great! Then how about we go out this weekend! On…Saturday? At…five?” He still yelled in his nervousness but became uncertain all too quickly.
Vegeta’s expression stayed as his blush reddened. “That…would be wonderful.”
Kakarot nodded curtly as his chest swelled with joy. “Okay!” With that, Kakarot turned and left, his actions uncertain as if there was something else he should’ve done.
However, it was good enough for Vegeta, who covered his face with his hands to hide the embarrassment from his face. “Wow.” Sentaro stated.
Vegeta turned to him and uncovered his face. “Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God! I’m not hallucinating, am I? That actually happened?” He turned to watch his new boyfriend’s retreating back, who appeared to be forcing himself to not look back. “He…He…asked me out?” Vegeta tried his hardest to keep his emotions in check. He couldn’t tell if he wanted to burst into tears or shout in pure joy.
Sentaro decided to be a dick and messed with Vegeta. “Who did?” Suddenly ruining the moment, Vegeta turned to his friend and glared at him. Sentaro laughed. “I’m just kidding. Yes he asked you out. You weren’t hallucinating.” He answered in a bland tone.
Vegeta turned back to his object of desire and clenched his hands in front of him like a love-struck school girl. “Ahh. Nothing can ruin my week now. Absolutely nothing.”
“What can’t?” Vegeta and Sentaro turned to Noaru who suddenly appeared behind them.
“Oh, Noah!” Vegeta embraced him like he hasn’t seen him in ages, which it might as well have been like that. “You’ll never believe it! Kakarot just asked me out!”
Not knowing what to do with himself, Noaru hesitantly patted his friend’s back. “Umm, that’s…great Vegeta and you’re right, I don’t believe it.”
“Well, he did. I witnessed it.” Sentaro backed Vegeta up.
Noaru stared at him in surprise. “Oh. Well then, congratulations Vegeta.”
“Oh thank you!” Vegeta responded excitedly.
A couple minutes went by and Noaru cleared his throat uncomfortably. “Uhh, Vegeta…you can…let me go now.”
It took a moment for Vegeta to notice that he was still hugging him and quickly pulled away in embarrassment. “Oh! My bad.”
Noaru cleared his throat. “S’okay. So, have you guys set up a date yet?”
Just when Sentaro was about to tell him, Vegeta beat him to it. “Yeah! This Saturday! Isn’t it great?!”
Noaru gave his friend an unsure look. “Uh, sure.”
“What is it Noah?” Sentaro asked. Vegeta looked at his friend in concern as soon as Sentaro voiced his thoughts.
“Hm. It’s just that…I always saw Kakarot as a straight. Just what changed his mind to suddenly want to go out with a guy?”
Sentaro shrugged and clasped his hands behind his head. “I don’t know. He just said something about finding it futile to stay away from Vegeta and said to hell with it.”
Noaru raised a brow. “Okay. What does that mean?”
“It means exactly what it means! Don’t question it! Hn!” Vegeta shouted then went to go home. The two friends remaining just shrugged at each other and followed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kakarot walked to his house at a fast pace, nervous and almost regretting what he did. ‘Oh my God! I can’t believe I did that! I practically yelled at him! Oh man! What’s he thinking?! I hope he doesn’t think I’m stupid now! No, then he would’ve said no if he did…or would he? Damn it! Maybe I should go over to his house later or call him? But I don’t want to be pushy. Fuck everything! Okay, okay, just…calm down Kakarot.’ He took a few calming breaths before his thoughts started racing again. ‘I’ll just wait until tomorrow. Yeah…tomorrow…and see how he reacts then. Yeah. It’ll be fine. Worse case scenario…ummm…he tells the whole school. Ah but damn! I practically announced it to the whole school! I’m so screwed.’ His nervous pace suddenly died when his shoulders slumped and a sad expression came over his features as he trudged home.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When Vegeta got home, he closed the front door and leaned back against it and went into a dreamy stupor. ‘I can’t believe it. He…he actually asked me out. Even though there’s a part of me that tells me that it can’t be real or it’s all a joke, but the other part that’s speaking more loudly can’t help but believe it. After all, it’s something that I’ve always dreamed and day dreamed about ever since I first saw him and now…it’s real, I hope.’ He was brought out of his musings when he heard his father enter the room with a stern looking expression and a letter in his hands. ‘Ah crap. This might actually ruin my week.’ He made a face at the letter and looked his father in the eyes as he stood straighter. ‘Well, at least he’s sober.’ “Vegeta, what the hell is this?! Not only did you punch another student, but you strangled the principal?! You have any idea how this’ll look on me? You? Did you take any consideration in what you were doing before you did it?!”
Vegeta sneered at his father’s words. “Oh, NOW you decide to be a parent?! When did that happen?! Was it the clearing of your drunken haze when you finally woke today or does it just feel like you haven’t given me a good lecture in a while?”
His father clenched the letter tighter in his hand, crinkling it. “How dare you speak to me that way! I am your father! You wouldn’t even be in school if it weren’t for me!” He noted the hickeys that he saw on his son’s neck. “Maybe if you weren’t fooling around with some girl then you’d actually straighten up and pass this grade! That’s right! You’re failing your classes too! I tell you every day to do your damn homework and do you do it? No!”
Vegeta gave his father a cautious look. “Father, I’m gay, remember? I don’t have a girlfriend.”
The older gave him a surprised look. “Wh-What?”
Vegeta rolled his eyes. “I told you this two years ago. Either you’ve killed enough brain cells that you don’t remember or you were just trying to forget.”
His father sent him an unsure look. “Now that I think about it, it does sound familiar. How could you say something like that? I’m not ashamed of you. Sure it was a shock at first, but…”
Vegeta glared at him. “You really don’t remember, do you?” When his father looked away from him, he sighed and moved his back pack strap on his shoulder better. “I’m going upstairs.”
Right when he passed his father, he grabbed a hold of his arm. “Oh no you don’t! I’m not done with you yet!”
A sudden memory from those words flashed in Vegeta’s mind as he tensed and looked at his father in fear. However, he didn’t even have a fist raised, but his expression caused his father to release him. “What the hell’s the matter with you?” The older asked, but didn’t get an answer so he continued. “We need to talk about this. I can’t just let you do what you want.”
Vegeta recovered and scowled at him. “Why not? You always do.”
His father scowled at him. “Well not this time. You’re grounded until you get your grades up. That means no going out after school. You come straight home and from now on, you’re spending your weekends studying!”
“What?!” Vegeta all but screamed. “But I have a date this weekend! I have to go!”
“School is more important than dating! You can’t have a future dating! You need a diploma so you can go to college and get a job! You have any idea how hard I’ve been working to save enough money for you to go to college?! I had to get another job just so I can save enough when the time comes! I don’t want you throwing all that away for some…for some…guy!” He almost couldn’t say it, but if he really meant what he said, then he’d forced himself to.
Vegeta looked at his father in surprise. “You…you got another job? Where?”
The older crossed his arms. “At the bank.”
Vegeta laughed. “A drunk…working at the bank! How long will that last?”
His father sneered then grabbed a hold of his son’s shirt collar. “Listen here you little brat! I didn’t bust my ass to be laughed at! Now-“ He paused when he noted that his son was not only trembling, but flinched and shut his eyes at his actions. “What…just what the hell is wrong with you? You act like I’m going to hit you!” He let go by shoving him away slightly. Vegeta stumbled back, but stood his ground. “And…is that…? Is that another bruise on your face?! Did that student hit y-?” He cut himself off when Vegeta took a step back when he went forward to verify the bruise.
“Don’t touch me.” Vegeta warned. He was visibly trembling in place, as if his father would do just that.
“Oh…Vegeta…” The older stared at the light bruise in horror. “Did…Did I…do that?” Vegeta couldn’t look his father in the eye and looked away as he fought tears. A few minutes passed before his father couldn’t take the silence anymore. “Damn it Vegeta answer me!”
Vegeta looked at him then as the tears fell. “Yes! Yes, you did.”
A look of sadness and guilt took over his father’s features when he suddenly remembered that he was an angry drunk. However, he never knew that he would be capable of abusing his own son. He fell to his knees in utter disbelief, the letter falling from his hands, forgotten. “Vegeta, my son…I’m…I’m so sorry. I never meant to hurt you like that. I…I don’t even know what I was thinking.” He buried his face in his hands. Of course. Out of all the times that he remembered when he was sober, every time he saw his son or even got close to him, he’d flinch or keep his distance. It all made sense now.
Vegeta stayed frozen in his spot. “I may not know what you were thinking, but I do know that you were angry. You’re always angry and I don’t know why!” There were a few moments of silence as Vegeta watched his father shake his head, either in denial or still in shock. “Is it…because you blame me…for mother’s death?” He whispered.
His father lifted his head as if he’d said the most unforgiving thing. He reached out for Vegeta’s hand, who pulled back slightly, but then let his father take it and pull him to him. He looked him in the eye while still in his kneeled position on the floor. “Don’t ever think that Vegeta. You hear me? Don’t ever think that! What happened to your mother was an accident. It was no one’s fault. Understand?” Vegeta’s tears kept falling as his father embraced him. “I love you too much to think that of you. You’re all I have left son and to think…that I was hurting you all this time.” Vegeta hesitantly returned the embrace, but didn’t say anything until his father pulled away. “Why didn’t you tell me sooner? Why…did you let it continue?”
The tears didn’t stop when he answered. “I…didn’t want to lose you. Sentaro wanted me to call the cops, but…I knew that if I did…they’d take you away.”
The older reached out to wipe away his son’s tears. “Sentaro…is that the boy next door?” Vegeta nodded. “He’s…not your-“
“No.” He shook his head. “Kakarot is.”
His father gave him a questioning look. “Who?”
Vegeta laughed a little. “Christ, father. Have you been so out of it that you didn’t even know of our new neighbors that moved in across the street a month ago?”
His face fell. “I…guess I have. I’ll have to meet him sometime.” The expression quickly changed to that of surprise. “Holy shit! A month?! It sure didn’t take you long to bag him, huh?”
Vegeta chuckled. “I didn’t think I ever would. I thought he was straight to begin with, but…maybe I got to him somehow.” He looked his father in the eyes. “I think I love him, father. I’ve had a crush on him since I first saw him. He’s smart and kind and he makes me happy.”
The older smiled when he saw that familiar look in his son’s eyes. “Does he now?”
Vegeta nodded happily. “And he asked me out today.”
His father looked at him in surprise. “Really?”
“Yes, which is why I want to be with him this weekend.” Vegeta’s smile turned sad, hoping his father would change his mind about being grounded.
The older glanced at the letter crumpled on the ground and sighed. ‘Well, I am pretty much the cause of his grades slipping and why he’s getting into fights at school. I really need to stop drinking.’ “Let’s make a deal. I’ll start going to an AA meeting and you work on your grades. How’s that sound?”
Vegeta smiled faintly. “That sounds good.”
His father returned the smile and embraced him again. “Does this mean you forgive me?”
Vegeta returned the gesture. “That all depends on how seriously you mean on not drinking anymore.”
“I mean it, baby. I’ll stop. I promise.” His father whispered and he kissed him on the temple.
Vegeta’s heart warmed when his father called him that. ‘He hasn’t called me that since I was little.’ He pulled away and smiled as a few more tears escaped. “Okay.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yay! Not only did I update but I FINALLY got the two together! *squees* Now, I just need to plan a lemon and where to put it. Pft of course I got plenty of lemons in mind! It took me forever to get them here! I’ve thought of different scenarios of their coupling. Now I just need to pick one….okay, this might take a while. :/
Ick. Now that I read it again, there’s a lot of mood and topic changing during the conversation between Vegeta and his dad. I hope it fits. Also, it seems kinda weird that I keep referring to Vegeta’s dad as his father and not actually give him a name. Hm, it also seems like I pointed that out before. I don’t know. What do you guys think? You read this stuff, does his dad need a name or is it good as is? If he gets a name, it’ll be Vegeta Sr. like everyone else has it lol. Eh, either way, let me know.
