Welcome to DBZ Saiyan Garden

Vegeta’s breath hitched as Goku’s fingers brushed against his, the warmth of the Saiyan’s touch startlingly gentle. The soft, cerulean sheet clung to Vegeta’s chest, a feeble barrier against the raw intensity in Goku’s gaze. Golden strands of Super Saiyan hair framed Goku’s face, his expression open, inviting, yet laced with something deeper—a quiet yearning.

“You don’t have to keep fighting, Vegeta,” Goku murmured, his voice low, intimate. The words struck a chord buried deep beneath the prince’s pride, resonating in a place he had long ignored. He wanted to look away, to hurl an insult or a taunt, but Goku’s presence—steady and disarming—rooted him in place.

The blush creeping across Vegeta’s cheeks betrayed him, a rare vulnerability he despised yet couldn’t control. His mind raced, seeking the familiar safety of scorn and defiance, but all he found was the quiet hum of Goku’s energy, a comforting warmth that eased the sharp edges of his turmoil.

“Why do you care so much?” Vegeta finally asked, his voice tight, barely above a whisper. His dark eyes flicked upward, meeting Goku’s emerald ones. The answer was already there, plain as day, in the softness of Goku’s smile and the way he leaned closer.

“Because I know what it feels like to carry it all alone,” Goku replied. His hand, strong yet tender, pressed lightly against Vegeta’s, grounding him in the moment. For a fleeting instant, the weight of battles fought, losses endured, and walls built over a lifetime seemed to fall away.

Vegeta swallowed hard, his grip on the sheet loosening. The tension between them shifted, no longer a collision of rival energies but a pull—magnetic, inevitable. And for once, the prince of Saiyans let himself be vulnerable, surrendering not to defeat but to trust.
