Chapter 3
Reda was startled by the sudden movement. Trunks opened the door. He and Goten immediately ran towards the kitchen. Reda joined them and when she came in she saw both of them at the table with a fork in one hand and a knife in the other, complete with a napkin tied on their necks. She started to laugh when she saw the site, both of them where drooling over the smell of food.
"Hey Reda" Goten and Trunks said as they noticed she came in.
"What are you too doing?"
"Getting ready to eat of course." they both turned there attention to where the food was being cooked. There stood a woman cooking, she looked young, with blue-greenish hair.
"Well hello. I'm Bulma Briefs, your Reda Fie right?" Reda nodded.
"I had read your profile."
"Reda Fie?" Trunks asked.
"Where have I heard that name before?"
"Trunks she's one of the top 10 finalist for our contest! Don‘t tell me you forgot!"
"Wha..."
"Trunks, why do you think you've been signing these documents for the past week?"
"I don't know they all look the same to me."
"TRUNKS!" Trunks saw his mother letting out steam.
"Ok, ok so she's one of our top 10 contest finalists, so?"
"Well Trunks if you remembered then you would know that the winner of the contest gets their invention made and supported by us, Capsule Corporation!"
"Oh"
"Oh Trunks when will you ever change?"
"So Reda are you ready for the contest?" said Bulma turning to face Reda.
"Actually that's what I wanted to talk to Trunks about."
"Trunks? Why are you asking him for info? He doesn't know a thing!"
"I object to that, mom!"
"After all I am Chair woman to the company." she said proudly pointing her index finger at herself, while ignoring her sons anger.
"I got it! Why don't you just let her ask both of you!"
"SHUT UP GOTEN!!!" Reda and Goten backed away immediately.
"Reda I think I should warn you, those to are not the best people to be around when it comes to arguing." Reda understood every word. (without an explanation) The door opened suddenly and was slammed shut immediately.
"That...that son of a....." she stopped when she noticed that everyone was staring at her. She turned her head around the moment she saw him. She tried to quickly recover.
"So...Hello everyone!" Goten was the only one to respond, everyone else who witnessed this just stared in confusion.
"umm...Hi Bra..." Goten was cut off, when she left straight to her room and slammed her door against the wall, again.
"I wonder who it is this time." said Bulma and Trunks.
"Bra! Bra! BRA!" yelled Vegeta. (after he heard that she had another one of her days)
"What?! What do you want dad??!!"
"Who is it? Who is it that did this to you?! Tell me!! That bastard!! I'll teach him!! No one plays around with this Royal Family, ESPECIALLY MY DAUGHTER!!!"
"Dad don't, don't start."
"Why?"
"I'll take care of it personally!" Vegeta just stood still eyeing his daughter. He was proud of her she was the only one that was more like him. She could take care of herself, with no help needed.
"What ever you do. Make sure he never forgets what he messed with."
"Don't worry I'm not going to spoil it" Vegeta wondered what Bra's punishment for the unfortunate one would be.
(in the living room)
"I wonder how she does it! She always seems to get on his good side. It doesn't make sense! What about me?"
"Trunks what are you talking about?" Goten was confused, to him Vegeta didn't have a �good side.’ nevertheless cared about anyone.
"What am I talking about? Goten! He's always cared for her!" Trunks sighed "and not me"
"He loves you Trunks, he loves all of us, but he just can't say it." Bulma added "Give it time Trunks." Bra came down with Vegeta next to her. She was looking at the ground, not bothering to see who was in the room.
"Well if you all don’t mind, I would like to have some of that food I smell!"
"some?" Bra asked as she finally lifted her head up to see who spoke, but she knew. She knew who the voice belonged to; the only person she cared about beyond friendship, beyond family, and more. The person she wanted to be with then and there was only a few feet away. Goten.
"ok, ok I meant allot!" They all started to laugh. Even Vegeta smiled. As they saw Goten continue to drool over not having breakfast, lunch, and it was now 8:00, so they were already late for dinner. They all sat down trying to forget what happened a few moments ago. Well it was not problem for the guys, they had there full attention on the very thing that lay in front of them. (food) Bra realized that she had been staring at Goten, for a while now. She quickly looked somewhere else, to her surprise she saw someone she hadn�'t seen before.
*Who is that girl? I haven't taken my eyes off Goten and now I see that there's someone else here. Who is she?*
"Hello" Came a friendly voice that interrupted Bra's thinking.
"Hello" the voice repeated.
"hi"
"I'm Reda who might you be?"
"I'm Bra, Trunks sister, daughter of Bulma Briefs and Vegeta." She also wanted to tell her that she was the supposedly a Princess, but decided not to.
"Well nice to meet you, Bra"
"Bra this is Goten new girlfriend." Trunks added. Bra froze. She thought she might have had a chance with Goten now that he was over with Paris and single again. (supposedly)
*No! Not again! Damn you! Bastard! You‘ll never look at me like I want you to! Never!*
"umm...honey?"
"What!" Bra had rage all over her blood.
"Will you please not ruin anymore...."
"What?" Bulma pointed towards Bra'/s hand. There was the fork that she had once been holding, now melted. Bra was mad at her stupidity.
"Sorry mother, may I be excused?" she said trying not to sound mad.
"Well, ok Bra"
"Thanks" Bra walked slowly to her room.
"Shit! I really blew it this time! God! I have never been so humiliated before and in front of him!"
"I front of who?" Bra froze, she always froze when he was around.
"Goten? What are you doing here?"
"Well first of all you didn't answer my question, second of all I finished before anyone else could finish saying Grace." Bra smiled. "and then again I wanted to check up on you."
"Nobody Goten." Bra smiled again. Goten loved it when she smiled. It was so much better than her being mad, then again she looked good in whatever statement she wore. Both stood silent.
"So"
"So how was your day?" Bra tried to hold back the anger she felt over what happened earlier. (she tried)
"uh! That bastard Austin!"
"woo....now hold it Bra. What happened?" Bra started to explain.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Hey Bra! Bra! BRA!"
"What!"
"Chill Babe I was wondering if you could go out with me. Lets say this Saturday night?"
"Get lost Austin!" This wasn't the first time Austin asked her and she rejected him, not even thinking of whether to go or not. She had someone else in mind.
"woo now hold it! Did I just here Bra Briefs tell me the high school quarterback, the hottest guy in town, and the one you love so dearly, to get lost?
"Do you want me to repeat it again! Or would you rather keep on talking about yourself cause if you are let me tell you something Austin, I'm not interested!"
"Bra I'll give you one more chance, if you reject me then you'll be sorry you said no."
"Sure try it"
"Will you go out with me this Saturday night Bra?"
"NO!" Bra slams her locker door, leaving Austin struck dumb.
"wha...?"
"Bye!"
"YOU WILL NEVER FORGET THIS BRA!!!!"
"I believe I won't even care." Bra enters her 8 period class (keyboarding). She hears Austin whispering something to a couple of guys and the guys eyes turn wide and they start pointing at her while laughing. Thinking that she didn't see them. But she did. She couldn't take it any longer. She turned around.
"What? What do you want?" The guys keep on laughing the girls just stare at her, confused. It seemed like an eternity in hell. 2:00 finally her school was over.
*I'm finally free! Free of this school! Well for two days not counting this afternoon.*
"Hey Bra! Bra! BRA!"
*GOD I hope that isn't Austin!* She turns around and sees an orange bandana. Relived she answers in a cheerful tone.
"Hey Pan, what's up?" Pan does not respond instead she drags her to the nearest bathroom. There in the bathroom.
"What do you mean what's up?! BRA! Austin has been spreading rumors about you, saying that your..."
"What!!!???"
"GAY"
"What!!!! That son of a bitch! Bastard! How dare he!!"
"He said that your probably like girls better, since you didn't go out with him cause every girl in the school would."
"I am not gay! I like someone and it's not him, not now not ever!"
"You do? Who?" Bra gasped she didn't mean to say that out loud.
"Someone"
"TELL ME!! BRA I’M YOUR BEST FRIEND!"
"I'm not saying besides he probably doesn't even look at me that way."
"FINE! DON'T TELL ME!"
"Bye Pan! See you later!" She walked straight home not caring about Pan being mad at her. After all Pan was always mad at her, they always forgot about it and became friends again. She was thinking of a way to get payback at Austin. She was frustrated that she felt like fighting for the first time. She entered and Slammed the door, not caring that her family had heard her. But what hurt her was that he did.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Goten was stunned, he thought she had the perfect life, since she had everything she wanted, by just asking for it.
What he did not realize is that all she wanted was him, Son Goten. Half Saiyan, best friend of her brother, son of the man that beat her father, and the guy she liked longer and deeper than any other guy she met before.
He did not think anything like this would happen. Especially to Bra, she was Beautiful, sweet, and a great person to count on, she is daughter to one of the smartest women in the world she has the genes to become a very smart person. Now that he thought about it she must have never been embarrassed or humiliated, ever! She was hurt, badly. He wanted to hug her, comfort her. Something! But he was not sure. She lifted her head up, which was staring at the floor while they were talking. Her ocean blue eyes met his dark ones as they locked each other in direct contact. Goten could not take it any longer she was right in front of him staring at him. He had to help, in some way. He gave her a warm smile then friendly hug, she started to hold tighter, he did too, both not wanting to let go. She wanted him to hold her like that forever. Goten and Bra backed away while blushing, they had been in that position for some time now.
Bra spoke.
"Well Goten heard you got a new girlfriend, is that true?" She asked searching for an statement or the answer of her question. Hoping it was just another girl he dated and felt nothing special towards. It took Goten a couple of minutes to get back to where he was at. He was admiring her eyes as if he was in a trance. He had completely forgot that it was Bra. It was, but different in some way he could not describe.
"Well yes, I guess you could say that."
"What do you mean �I guess�?"
"Well we haven't officially dated we've just seen each other lately." By coincidence, he wanted to add.
"oh" Bra was trying to hide the joy of what she felt haven given a chance to prove herself worthy to him. He didn't show any statement at all, but he kept on staring at her.
"Well Goten we better head back. I think Trunks wanted to go with you somewhere."
"huh? okay." He was still in a trance.
