Notes: I love this couple. The inspiration for this one comes from a fanart piece by the artist Drops. The picture was of Goku and Chi-Chi in their later years - something that I don't see a lot of. It was just so sweet to imagine them as one of those couples that just stay together forever. I think old couples are adorable. I had to make an old couple fic about Goku and Chi-Chi.

At 60, graying hairs, wrinkles and all, Son Chi-Chi was still a beauty.
"You're lyin'." Chi-Chi said when Goku had told her so.
"I'm not." Goku grinned, leaning over so he could kiss his pouting wife. "Besides, it's not like you're the only one who's gettin' older."
Chi-Chi reached up and pinched his cheek hard, making him wince. "And you're still pretty strong." Goku added.
"It's not fair!" She sighed. "Here I am, agin' twice as fast as you are, which also means I'll live only half as long as you do, provided you don't get yourself killed before you're old enough to die naturally in your sleep!"
"I don't really think about that." Goku said honestly. He wrapped his arms around Chi-Chi and pulled her close. "And I don't really want to either."
"Those are the facts of our lives." Chi-Chi said. "We've gotta face 'em sooner or later."
"But not now." Goku said insistently. "You're not that old. We've got a long life ahead of us – together."
Chi-Chi smiled, raising her arms so she could hug her husband as tightly as she was able.
They stood like that for a long moment, simply enjoying each other's warmth.
