A/N: Hey everyone, I'm back with the next chapter to this story. I would like to thank everyone for giving this story a chance, all of you are awesome! I apologize in advance for the short chapter but I wanted this scene to be separate as the next chapter will begin Bulma's new life as a mother. Hope all of you enjoy!

Disclaimer: I own nothing.

It was mid-day in West City. The sun was high and the streets were extremely busy. Just like any other day, Capsule Corp was hard at work. The nation's top scientists were cramped with work as they implemented new technologies and discoveries to create inventions that will help the human race for the years to come. In the living area, Panchy had spent most of her day in the living room waiting for her daughter. Bulma had been out all night and morning without calling and Mrs. Briefs was starting to get worried. The last thing the young scientist said before leaving was that an old friend was in the hospital. "I wonder whom that could be?" she asked herself. She decided that she needed to distract herself otherwise the constant questions would drive her insane. She entered the kitchen and looked around for any ideas. A smile came to her lips when she spotted a few cake pans. "I'll bake a cake!" she concluded.

Hours have passed and West City was starting to get dark. Mr. Briefs entered the living room completely exhausted from working non-stop in the lab. "Phew," he voiced as he took a seat for the first time in hours.

"Oh, hey honey," greeted Panchy as she entered the living room and noticed her husband. "Would you like something to eat."

"Yes Hun, that would be nice," responded the scientist. "Have you heard from Bulma yet?"

Panchy gave a disappointed look as she shook her head. "I'm afraid not. I tried calling her on several occasions but apparently, there isn't much signal wherever she is."

"I'm sure she'll be back any minute now. We just need to be patient."

Coincidentally, at that moment they heard the door open. "Bulma…?" asked Panchy as she headed towards the door with Mr. Briefs behind her.

Bulma entered the hallway and spotted both her mother and father coming towards her. "Shhh…" she whispered placing her finger on her lips. "He's asleep."

Both Panchy and Mr. Briefs stopped when they noticed a bundle in their daughter's arms. "Bulma…?" began Mr. Briefs. "What are you holding?"

Bulma gave a tired yet sincere smile as she walked up to them and gently moved a part of the blanket revealing an infants face, "Isn't he beautiful?"

"Is… that a…baby…?" asked a stunned Panchy who couldn't believe what she was seeing in front of her.

"Yes," responded the young scientist. "His name is Gohan… Gohan Briefs…"

"Briefs…?" asked the older female. "Bulma, what is going on?"

"It's a long story," responded Bulma with a sigh.

"Well, fortunately for you, we have time," responded Mr. Briefs.

"Right…" responded Bulma. "Let's take a seat in the living room." The three of them entered the living room and for the next thirty minutes, Bulma explained to her parents every single detail about what happened. From Chi-Chi and Goku's passing to her official adoption of Gohan.

With every word Bulma said, both Mr. and Mrs. Briefs grew more and more skeptical. "But honey," began Panchy. "How could you possibly take care of this young child…? Going from single woman to mother in the span of one day is an impossible stable transition…"

"She's right," agreed Mr. Briefs. "You can't keep up with a job that requires a majority of your daily time and be a mother which practically requires all of your time. "

Bulma gave a disappointed look as she was hoping for a different response from her parents. "You don't believe I can take on a huge responsibility?" she asked.

"It's not that we don't believe you can sweety," responded Mrs. Briefs. "It's just that you're still young and inexperienced."

"I know…" sighed the blue-haired scientist. "But I was hoping that maybe the both of you could help me…" the look of unsurement from her parents said it all.

"Bulma…" began Mr. Briefs. "Are you sure you want to carry such a huge responsibility…? I know your heart is in the right place and that you're an adult that is fully capable of doing whatever you want, and you know we'll support any decision you make but I just want you to be fully aware of what you're getting into… Becoming this child's mother would mean you would have to stop going out at nights, limit the time you spend with the baseball player and have to spend your money much more carefully. That means no going on mass shopping sprees anymore or going on those wild adventures that you love… Are you sure this is something you want?"

Bulma looked down at the baby in her arms. His small snores were enough to cause a smile to her face. "Would any of you like to hold him?"

"I would," quickly responded Panchy as she always loved babies and really wanted to hold the infant. She received the child and her heart immediately felt as if it was melting due to how heart-warming the moment was, "My goodness he is so precious."

"He is," responded Bulma proudly. "Meet Gohan Briefs... My Gohan Briefs. As of today, he is my son and I will love and protect him as such. Nothing will be missing in his life as he will have everything he needs to succeed and become the man that Chi-Chi dreamed he would be. The man that anyone would be proud of.

A/N: And that's it for this chapter, hope everyone enjoyed. Now one last thing, most of you might know that my goal is to have a story for almost every possible Gohan pairing. With that in mind, I was thinking about making this story a Gohan/Angela. What do you guys think?

As always, reviews are greatly appreciated and strongly encouraged. Thank to everyone and take care.
