My own little dislikement of Chi-Chi gave me motivation for this so thanks Chi-Chi!


Chapter I

Flashback:

Goku threw his head back in laughter. Vegeta stood at the opposite end of the table and gave him a look that could kill.

"It's not funny Kakarot! You think I wanted to dance and sing a fucking song on stage and humilate myself to keep the world from being blown up?!" He threw his cup of hot chocolate on the floor and stormed out of the kitchen which only made Goku and everyone else laugh harder.

"I'm...sorry...Vegeta!" Goku shouted inbetween his laughter.

"GO TO HELL!" We all heard Vegeta roar.

After everyone finally stiffled their laughs, 3am came quickly. Everyone said their goodnights, Tien, Chiaotzu and Yamcha left. All but one had left. Goku. Goku sat at the table quietly sipping what was left of his hot chocolate. I got up and started heating up the little that was left.

"Not going to bed?" Goku quizzed, a small smile on his sleepy face. He looked exhausted, like he's never slept a day in his life.

"No, not yet. Not really.." I yawned. "tired." I finished with a small laugh."Besides, who sleeps when there's hot chocolate?"

He chuckled and got up from the table. "I agree." He said before a yawn escaped his lips.

I stirred the hot chocolate lazily and finally poured the rest in my mug before turning to look at him. I laughed softly and I handed him my now warm mug.

"You need it more then I do." I smiled as my eyes slowly drifted to his. He smiled and his pair of dark eyes met mine with a smile of their own.

"Thanks, Domi."

Our eyes stayed locked onto eachother, his big, bright goofy smile made my smile become bigger and I wrinkled my nose. I felt warmth spread into my cheeks and I coughed and broke the gaze.

"I..uh..I'm gonna go to bed." I said quickly. I left the kitchen before he could respond but I knew he still had his goofy smile on and watched me leave.


I shot up from my bed from the sound of my phones alarm. I sat up and pushed the pieces of my light brown hair that had fallen infront of my face away from my eyes and grabbed my phone. 8:OO am. I have 3O minutes before I have to go and train with Krillin at Capsule Corp.

Krillin and I have been sparring all week, keeping us both prepared for anything that may come. With me being a saiyan I could use my strength to really test Krillin. His kamehamehas needed more work, so I'll be staying with Bulma so we all can train together. I rubbed my face softly and quickly put on my saiyan training uniform. I grabbed the left over coffee I had brewed from yesterday morning and grabbed different kinds of crackers, chips, and made different types of sandwiches.

I wonder if he's going to be there...no. Can't be thinking like that. Why am I thinking like that? I don't like Goku like that. At least I don't think so? Did he like me like that..? No no no, he has Chi-Chi. That night probably meant nothing to him anyway.

I felt panicked as my thoughts were starting to overwhelm me that I accidently knocked over the mayo. Shaking my head, I resumed packing everything that I needed too stay for a while with Bulma and headed off to go meet Krillin.


Krillin was apparently late too as we had landed at Capsule Corp at the same time.

"You got up late too, huh?" Krillin laughed as we walked inside to Bulma's house.

I sighed as I put my sandwiches into the fridge. "Yeah, I had a dream I..I didn't want to wake up from." I mumbled as I started to munch on a sandwich.

"Dreaming of me again?" Krillin wiggled his eyebrows as he laughed.

"In your dreams, Krillin!" I laughed with him.

We talked more as I took my time eating my sandwich, when I finished we started to walk outside to see that it was raining hard. Lighting etched the sky and thunder rumbled loudly.

Krillin paused and looked at me as if he was silently saying What do you want to do?

"Lets go!" I beamed as I dashed out of the door right into a tall, muscular figure. I fell right into him but he caught me with his strong arms; the pair of arms held me tight and I looked into the familiar dark pair of eyes I had dreamt of. Goku..

"Whoa," he laughed. But his laugh was different. It wasn't full of life like it normally was. I looked up at him, studying his face. There was something in his eyes but I couldn't tell what it was. He looked back down at me, "Are you okay?"

"Yeah I'm fine." I swallowed hard as I felt my cheeks go crimson. "Um..are you okay?"

It felt like time itself slowed down when he looked at me. Rain matted Goku's hair down and water framed his face as it dripped onto mine. I felt a squeeze on my arm and I looked to see he was still holding me from when I ran into him and almost knocked us down. I quickly pulled away from him and my gaze went to my feet.

"Yeah. I'm okay." His smile was back and had a little bit more life into it. "We'll talk about it when we go inside and a little bit more dry. Or were you going to spar with Krillin while it's raining?" Goku motioned to a silent Krillin. Oh man, I completely forgot about Krillin...

I coughed and looked at Krillin "Did you want to spar?" I asked sheepishly.

"We can wait. What's up Goku, what's the matter?" Krillin stepped more toward us and stood next to Goku. Goku motioned his hand for us to go inside and Bulma quickly brought us some towels. Our gazes kept meeting but neither of us said a word. We dryed off and headed to where everyone was, but Goku stood next to me. He rocked on his feet as he tried to get the words he wanted to say.

"I don't really know how to come out and say a thing like this." Goku laughed a little. Everyone watched him intently.

"Chi-Chi and I are getting a divorce. This...isn't the life she wanted. She didn't want her kids to be martial artists. I'm not around enough for her and when I am around we argue. A lot." Goku stopped rocking on his feet and looked at everyone, then his gaze locked onto mine.

Apologizes soon flooded the room and everyone came and gave Goku a hug besides Vegeta, of course, but his face showed a tad bit of sympathy. It started getting to crowded staying near Goku so I shot him an apologetic look and started to walk off to the door to go outside and gather my thoughts. A divorce..

"Well, while it may be cramped here you can stay with us Goku" My feet haulted at the words. "You'll have Vegeta and Dominika to spar with too since she's our guest for a bit." Bulma said a little to loudly and knowing Bulma she had that big grin of hers. I heard Vegeta sigh at the mention of Goku staying but he didn't protest.

"Thanks Bulma! I accept the offer. I'm gonna go eat now, I feel like I haven't ate in days!" Goku chuckled. I saw that he was paying attention until eyes were no longer on him and he headed straight for me.

When he stood infront of me I couldn't help but look into his dark eyes and smiled; his gaze quickly found mine and he returned the smile.

"I hope you aren't planning on leaving after the invitation." Goku smirked as he opened up the door for me. "You were going outside right?" He motioned to the now open door. I glanced outside; the rain never lightened up and the sky looked more angry then before. But my gaze soon fell onto his eyes again. How could someone walk out on him like that? On Goku. Goku has the biggest and most gentle heart I've ever seen. He was always a voice of reason, always willing to give second chances, fighting to protect others, he was so good natured. A complete opposite then Vegeta, but Vegeta knew when to make the hard choices. Goku left hard choices as the last option and all these traits made him...so loveable. A good friend to everyone.

"Domi?" Gokus' voice was full of concern as he stared at me puzzled. "Are you okay?"

"W-What?" I stammered "Y-Yeah I'm fine. Sorry." I said sheepishly. "What did you say?"

Goku had the biggest grin. "I hope you aren't planning on leaving after Bulma invited me to stay here."

"Oh, no! I just.." I trailed off "needed to gather my thoughts." I mumbled as I walked outside. I got drenched immediately; my light brown hair now a dark brown mess plastered to my face. I looked at Goku to find he was soaked too. Why did he come out here?

"Did you need something or just gonna stand there with that smile of yours?" I laughed.

His face went serious, which is a odd occasion. "What do you think about all this? With Chi-Chi?"

I froze. Why is he asking me? "Um.." I started. I fidgeted underneath his gaze and I felt my cheeks grow hot. "I think she's wrong. And...she lost someone amazing." I whispered as my eyes wondered back to my now damp training boots. I looked back at Goku who was now closing the space between us.

"Y-" Goku started but I quickly back peddle away from him. I could see a hint of sadness in his eyes from the motion.

"I have to go." I quickly said as I turned my back to him. I gathered my energy and took off into the storm.
