Work Text:
Lately, everyone had been involved in their own love drama. Even Bad was having his very own novel. He was only an expectator until people started getting his ¿boyfriend? to try and get him to participate in their conflicts.
Every time, when he was almost sure the drama was going away, they started a new one, saying that now they liked another person. As the gossip floated in the air of that island, there were theories and speculations of who they were talking about. Every way, leading to the fact that they were in love with his partner.
He knew that Vegetta, just like him, was very loyal and patient, and for that reason, he wasn’t going to betray him or anything like that.
But when he stopped to think, he realized. ¿What was Vegetta not supposed to betray?
Sure, the fact that they were in love was known by the whole island, but none of them had a bond to cling to. They called each other boyfriends, special friends, and had even called each other “husband” at some point, all of this, not even knowing what they actually were.
He was tired of always using a different label. He wanted to tell the world that he was Vegettas boyfriend, that he was the only one that received his love, the only one allowed to go into his place to hug him in his sleep.
He had made up his mind. He was going to finally be Vegettas.
But when love was the subject, there were always two sides of the same coin. So, his plan consisted of convincing Vegetta he was appropriate to be his love partner.
.
.
It started an evening when Vegetta was just getting back from one of his journeys, returning really tired.
Foolish didn’t waste any time.
He took his significant other straight to the bathroom to get himself refreshed, followed by having his pajamas ready for when he came out.
In the meantime, he waited in the living room, next to their daughter.
When he finally got to them, he was much livelier. He greeted the both of them with a kiss and told them tales about his new exciting journey. Not stopping the stories, Foolish brought the dinner.
This surprised Vegetta, but he just smiled and thanked him for being so nice to him.

After sending Leo to sleep, the two lovers stayed awake, just talking, but hugging each other under the blanket that they were sharing in front of the fireplace.
It was at these kinds of moments, that Foolish had even more resolve to get the man right beside him to me his. Having those arms around him gave him all the clues he needed. But he wasn’t going to ask for everything; when he hadn’t given his all.
.
.
After their first encounter, Foolish continued to treat Vegetta like a king. Whenever he was building, he brought the smaller man snacks or drinks to share. Even Vegetta had picked on this habit and started to visit Foolish when he was out on adventures, or just building.
Those little details made them get a stronger bond as a family.
They took Leo on their own little journeys and brought Roier out of his love nest just for him to spend more time with them.
-
Foolish had made sure that his not-boyfriend was always the first to see his builds, but sometimes, there were unwanted visitors.
—I see you are again making your silly constructions. Another Vegetta statue, or will it now be Leo? —He could, unfortunately, not control BadBoy and his random appearances.
—Well, at least I have something to do instead of just walking around, claiming my love for Forever. Just leave, I’ll make sure to tell Skeppy that you are not interested anymore.
They went on and on with their venomous comments, not noticing the presence of two others.
—Oh, come on. Don’t you guys know how to speak like two normal human beings? —He came into the room, greeting Bad with his hand, but kissing Foolish on the cheek. —Stop it you guys, or you know what they say “Los que se pelean, se desean”.
Both Americans recognized that phrase, even without the help of the translator.
—Oh no no no. There’s no way I want anyone other than you. This annoyance right here is no match to you, mi amor. —He has gained a lot more confidence in the flirting department, but that didn’t mean he wasn’t embarrassed when he made any movement toward the other man, now having his face red.
Vegetta stayed still for a moment, before bursting out laughing, to which he was joined by Leo, who was trying to keep herself unnoticed but failed because she couldn’t not make fun of her dad.
Bad, not wanting to interrupt the family, finally said his goodbyes to the newcomers, maybe in a little too friendly manner, and left.
There was a rumor going around, that Bads feelings towards Vegetta had come back from the dead, but he hadn’t had time to confront him about it. Well, they maybe had time, but they always spent it annoying each other.
Not paying much mind to Bad, he dedicated all his attention to his family.

Vegetta was no dumb man. He had noticed Foolishes closeness to him. If he was honest, he was scared. They didn’t have a concrete label, but everybody knew they were basically boyfriends. He was scared Foolish might ask him to marry him.
He was scared of the proposal, but he was even more scared of himself. He would be incapable of saying no to Foolish.
He was scared of the proposal because he knew that the moment he saw his lover on his knees, he would be lost. And would only be able to imagine a future with him.
He was scared of hoping for impossible things. With Rubius returning to the server so suddenly, he hadn’t even been able to relax because of his constant nervousness. And even with all those facts, he couldn’t confront Foolish about it.
The best outcome to all this would come only if he spoke to his partner before he even tried anything, but he didn´t want to break his illusions. They were just so happy, that he could only focus on loving his precious totem.
He just wanted all of this to end.
-
Time kept going, and also did Foolish. He had gone so far, he and the mage had almost engaged in grown-up activities. They were both desperate
Vegetta was sure Foolish was the right one for him but didn’t want to ruin their perfect love just for wanting to have a wedding.
Foolish, on the other side, was dying to finally reach the last stage of his plan. His partner had given him all the messages he needs to know that the other one would be up to having a formal label.
Putting aside the fact that they had almost had sex. Foolish had gathered all the courage he had to continue to speak to Vegetta with normality, like the adults they both were.
It was a little weird that being on this stage of their relationship, they hadn’t made out already, but it could wait until they were formally boyfriends.
-
On a day like any other, Vegetta was just focused on his most recent building, when Foolish arrived for them to eat together.
It was already a routine, so the mage didn’t think twice about it.
Leo was hanging out with her brother, so it was just the both of them.
When the circumstances were those, they tended to get closed than necessary. Vegetta would sit on his lovers lap, while the other would eat single-handedly just to keep holding the prince's waist.
They always ate on small hills or near lakes, always watching the sunset.
That specific evening, it was prettier than they had ever seen it before.
When they had finished eating, they didn’t get separated. Just kept holding each other close. They didn’t want to let the other go, and they didn’t, not even when they talked.
—Umm, Vegetta. I wanted to ask you something.
Being just a random moment, Vegetta thought it was just something casual
—Of course, tell me, my love
—Well, you see, these last weeks, I don’t know if you noticed. Well, I mean, obviously you would’ve noticed, you are way too smart and too handsome to not notice something like that —Vegetta couldn’t help but laugh. His beauty and his intelligence had nothing to do with each other, but he just let Foolish finish his train of thought —Umm..I, um
Foolish had gotten nervous due to the sudden laugh, but he was not about to give up.
—Ok, so. These days I’ve been trying to gain points to be with you. But no, I don’t mean that now you are forced to be with me or anything, I just- Well I just wanted to feel safe knowing that you also wanted to be with me. —He was babbling —But anyway, going straight to the point. I wanna be your boyfriend. My prince, would you do me the honor of letting me be your boyfriend?
Vegetta had separated a bit just so he would be able to see Foolishes facial expression.
His reaction had made Foolish get frozen on his spot.
A few seconds passed, in which Vegetta had just been looking into the others eyes, without making any defined expression.
-
When the sorter one had turned around, it was due to thinking his boyfriend was joking. Was he for real? Could someone really have such a pure and wholesome soul?
Seeing for the last time, his lovers serious face, which looked like he was constipated, he couldn’t hold his laughter any longer.
He became the very definition of dying of laughter. He kept one of his hands holding Foolish, while the other one was busy holding his stomach. He ran out of air every two seconds and was breathing like he had just run a marathon.
Every time he tried to stop, he looked at Foolishes attempt at a poker face and his body that was straighter than a statue, and couldn’t stop.
When he finally managed to get under control, the first thing he did was kiss the taller one.
He did it with the intention of calming the other one down. And it worked like a charm.
—So, was that a yes? —He was now flustered
—But of course, you silly. I didn’t think you would just hit me with that question out of nowhere. For me, you’ve always been my boyfriend. Sometimes I forgot, but it was just because I was used to being alone. I love you very much, my love. Now that you’ve bothered to ask me, let me answer you. I, Vegetta777, solemnly give my heart to you, FoolishGamers, to take care of it, and always have it on your mind. From today, on, I have the pleasure of being your boyfriend.
Not paying attention to the fact that the prince was still on his lap. Foolish got up and started claiming victory for himself.
When he noticed that Vegetta had fallen on his face, he picked him up bridal style and started making a happy dance.
—Now you can’t like my boyfriend, motherfuckers! You have to kill me first, you bastards! —Having no one close, Vegetta realized that his boyfriend was just letting his anger/excitement out.
This boy was certainly the one for him. If at that exact moment, he had proposed to Vegetta. He wouldn’t have lost a single second, building the venue right at that hill, along with the rings and some bothersome documents.
But that moment could wait. For he was now happily in a relationship.
He kissed Foolishes cheek, signaling for him to let him down, to which the other immediately understood and carefully put him down.
—Well then, boyfriend of mine. Would you like to keep me company while I build, my love? —He took his hand, starting to walk together.
—But of course, mi novio, I’d love to —Squeezing his hand, he just followed the other's lead and kept walking.
In the middle of their little walk, he suddenly remembered a detail he had left out.
—Oh, Vegetta! I had completely forgotten.
He let the mage’s hand go to look into his pockets, from where he took a box, a little plain and large to hold any rings.
He gave it to Vegetta, who opened it, just to find a pair of earrings. One green, and the other purple.
—The idea is for us to wear them matching the other one. So I take the purple one, and you the green one. Would you like that, mi amor?
Now it was the turn of the prince, to jump at Foolishes arms.
—You seriously don’t know how much I love you. I would love so much to have a matching earring with you. Every single second, you show me that you are the man destined for me. I am sure that, at some place in this universe, our names are written under the same star.
After sharing one last kiss and putting on the earrings, they got back to holding hands and disappeared by the horizon.
