The whole gang had gone shopping. Strange indeed but they did. Goku was walking at the front with Pan and everyone was happy and content, except Chichi. She constantly found herself alone, even when there were people around her. She watched her son and Trunks nudging each other, snickering at a pair of girls dressed like sluts. She knew they weren't into those types of girls.
While she was lost in her thoughts, she ran into someone. They both fell to the ground.
"Oh, I'm so sorry!" Chichi apologised. The group had stopped to see Chichi and another man on the ground.
"No, I'm sorry. I wasn't watching where I was going" The guy said as he stood and offered his hand to Chichi. When they locked eyes, they froze.
"Chichi?" He asked. Chichi stared up at the man. He had soft, wavy brown hair and brown eyes.
"Dmitri?" Chichi asked as she slowly stood.
"Princess, it's been so long!" Dmitri exclaimed as he kneeled and bowed his head.
"Oh my god, Dmitri!" Chichi yelled as she threw herself into his arms as he stood. He spun her around and she laughed. "It's been so long!" He placed her down. She kissed both his cheeks in greeting as he did the same. They held hands as they looked at each other.
"How have you been Princess?" Dmitri asked.
"Oh wonderful and yourself?" Chichi asked.
"Well, about 20 years ago, Yumiko and I, got married. You remember Yumiko, don't you?" He asked.
"Of course I do. Oh, I am so happy for you, the both of you!" Chichi said.
"So what's happened so far since you left those many years ago. Did you find your prince charming?" He asked. Chichi snorted.
"He is definitely no prince charming" Chichi scolded. "As you know, I left to find Goku at the Martial Arts Tournament" Chichi said.
"Yes, I remember" Dmitri said.
"And I found him and we got married" Chichi said.
"Good for you Chi. Yumiko would love to see you again. We're still living at the base of Fire Mountain" He said.
Even though it was known as Frypan Mountain, the locals called it Fire Mountain.
"Really? What are you doing all the way out here?" Chichi asked.
"Yumiko was preparing for Christmas. She made me a list before I have to travel all the way back" He groaned. Chichi laughed.
"Have you guys ever seen Chichi this happy?" Yamcha asked.
"Only when Goku awoke from getting over that heart disease" Master Roshi said.
"They're pretty close, aren't they? I mean, they're still holding hands" Bra said.
"Bra!" Bulma snapped. Bra grumbled to herself quietly.
"Oh Princess, you must come back with me! Yumiko would love to see you again and I'd like to also introduce you to my daughter" He said.
"You had a kid as well?" Chichi asked.
"Of course. We've been married for 20 odd years" He said.
"Can you keep a secret?" Chichi asked, smiling. He smiled down at her.
"You know I can Princess" He laughed.
"I'm pregnant with my third child" Chichi whispered.
"Third huh? You sure were busy" He said and Chichi blushed. "Now, come back with me. I'm sure you're probably missing your birthplace" He said. Chichi thought about it for a moment before nodding and smiling.
"But first, I'd like to introduce you to my family" Chichi said as she tugged on his arm, laughing and he joined her.
"You haven't changed a bit" He said and that had her thinking. She shook her head, something to think about later, before stopping in front of her friends.
"Everyone, this is Dmitri. He's a childhood friend of mine" She introduced everyone before coming to her family.
"And this is my husband Goku, my oldest son Gohan, his wife Videl and their daughter Pan and this is my youngest son Goten" Chichi said.
"A pleasure to meet Princess's family" He said. "Now if you don't mind, I'm gonna be taking your wife for a few weeks" He said, pulling Chichi away.
"Dmitri, a few weeks?" Chichi asked.
"Why, you wanna stay longer?" He asked, wiggling his eyebrows. Chichi giggled before letting herself be pulled away.
"See you all in a few weeks!" Chichi said as she ran off. Her strict, boring self told her that she can't just leave her family while her mind argued that they did it all time to her. She'd let herself have this fun. All heaven knows she deserves it.
Everyone watched her go.
"Did that just happen?" Goten asked.
"It did" Bulma said.
"What if he hurts her?" Goku asked.
"What if he's her secret lover?" Bra said to Marron but a few heard it. No one tried to deny it.
Chichi took the Flying Nimbus with Dmitri, not wanting to walk like he had. Instead of a days journey, they made it there in an hour.
"Dmitri, you're back!" Yumiko said as she walked out. When she saw Chichi she gasped.
"Princess!" She yelled. She bowed before running to her and grabbing her into a hug. "Come in, come in!"
