Disclaimer: I don't own DBZ! But this story is inspired by Charismatic Beauty

The night was silent and everyone had fallen asleep to the bliss of their own dreams. The ninth month of ChiChi's pregnancy had finally arrived and everyone waited in angst for when she was due.

However, it couldn't come at a more unexpected time than this silent night. A sharp pain was what woke ChiChi up in the middle of the night. Her hand immediately moved towards her stomach and she took in a deep breath.

She slowly managed to push herself up into a sitting position but found that she was unable to do anything else. She tried to move again when the sharp pain returned followed by a strange wetness beneath her. Her eyes widened and realization dawned upon her aching figure.

Her water broke.

Goku woke up with a start when he heard ChiChi's distress moaning and breathing and his eyes widened. He jumped out of bed and rushed to her side as she held onto her swollen belly while breathing heavy.

"ChiChi! What's wrong?! Are you okay?!" Goku asked and felt his mouth run dry at his wife's pain. His eyes traveled in panic to her face and she tried to take a deep breath.

"Goku, it's time. My water just broke. The baby's finally coming" ChiChi managed to rasp out as she started to breathe faster again and gritted her teeth from the pain that came from her abdomen.

"Oh my Kami! Really?!" Goku exclaimed with a wide grin plastered on his face and he cheered with happiness. He waited for a long nine months for this to come and now the baby was finally coming.

He pulled ChiChi in a sudden embrace and she took in a sharp breath making the Saiyan break the hug. His eyes widened when he realized she was in pain and took a step back.

"Goku, now now please. Get Goten so we can get to the hospital as soon as possible" ChiChi tried to calmly say and Goku nodded. He rushed out of the room and ChiChi took in a deep breath before she let out a shriek of pain.

She groans and bit her bottom lip as the pain faded before returning again. She could only hope that they will get at the hospital as soon as possible.

"Goten! Wake up! You're mother's water broke! We need to get to the hospital!" Goku barged into the young teenager's room. Goten fell off the bed in shock and he was immediately awake and up.

"Where's Mom?!" Goten asked and ran out with his father towards ChiChi who was trying to manage to stand. "Mom! Are you alright?" ChiChi vaguely nodded and Goten's brows knitted in worry.

"I'm fine, Goten. I just need to get to the hospital" ChiChi replied and tried to give her son a small reassuring smile but the pain was too overwhelming.

"Don't worry! I'll get us there in no time!" Goku stated and put two fingers on his head while putting a hand on Goten's shoulder. In a blur, the three figures vanished from the Son house and traveled at the speed of light.

They appeared in the hospital in another blur and the nurses along with the doctors yelped at the sudden appearance.

"Please help! My wife is in great pain! The baby's coming!" Goku pleaded and the doctor's eyes widened. He along with a few other nurses immediately took ChiChi's hand and brought a wheelchair for her to sit in.

"Goten, let your brother know that the baby's coming" ChiChi said and Goten nodded while giving her a small smile. Goku kissed her forehead before the doctors took her in and Goten called Gohan.

There were a few seconds of only ringing before the phone was finally picked up. "Hello? Goten? Do you know what time this is? What's wrong?" Gohan's groggily voice talked over the phone.

"It's time! The baby's finally coming! Mom's going to give birth!" Goten said and heard a crash from the other side of the phone.

"We'll be right there. I'll let Bulma and the others know to meet you guys at the hospital. How is she? How's Dad?" Gohan asked as he gained his composure and Goten glanced back at the hall where his mother was once being pushed off into.

"She's in a lot of pain and Dad's keeping an eye on the nurses and doctors... We're okay" Goten replied and Gohan grunted. He was relieved to hear that they were at least fine but worried about ChiChi simultaneously.

"Alright, keep calm. We're on our way"

Three hours later...

Everyone waited as patiently as possible in the waiting room for the doctor's report and their nerves were shot. They hadn't heard from the doctor since ChiChi was taken into the maternity ward.

Everyone attention was drawn towards the door when it opened and the doctor stepped out of the ward. Goku immediately stood up and the doctor walked towards him, "It's about ChiChi -"

"What is it?! Is ChiChi okay? Is the baby okay? Is our daughter okay? Is she-" Goku panicked but stopped with his questions when ChiChi put a hand on his shoulder.

"Goku, calm down. Let the man talk" Bulma tried to soothe the Saiyan's nerves and he silently nodded. Trunks snickered in amusement while Vegeta scoffed and crossed his arms over his chest.

"So much for the fearsome warrior Saiyan..." Vegeta remarked sarcastically and Bulma heard his statement. She shot the male a glare and he didn't dare to make any other comment.

"Sir, your wife is in a lot of pain but she wants to see you" The Doctor informed and Goku's eyes widened. The Doctor led the male into the hall while Gohan and Goten looked worriedly at the hallway.

"I'm sure ChiChi's okay" Videl tried to soothe her husband and Goten. She was worried as well but she knew that they needed the support more.

Goten stood up abruptly and Gohan's brows furrowed at his little brother's actions. "Do you think we should go in there too?" Goten asked as his nerves raced and Gohan shook his head.

"Calm down, Goten. Mom will be just fine with Dad there and the doctor knows what he's doing. Sit down and try to relax" Gohan said and Goten bit his lower lips before he sat down again.

He knew that Gohan had been through his birth once and that his older brother knew what was going to happen. However, he could still see the worry dance in Gohan's eyes and at the same time the calmness he had around him. It was helpful with calming his own nerves for a bit.

He only hoped that ChiChi would be alright.

The Doctor led Goku towards the room where ChiChi was held and he opened the door for the male to enter. ChiChi, who was lying on a bed, glanced at the door with teary eyes. "G-Goku, is that you?"" She rasped,

Goku rushed to her side and was quick to take her hand in his. "Yes, ChiChi, it's me. I'm right here and I'm not going anywhere. I promise" Goku vowed before ChiChi started to cry on his shoulder.

"I've already done this twice. I should be used to this, b-" ChiChi let out a loud yelp was another sharp pain cuts through her stomach and she clenched Goku's hand tightly. He swallowed thickly and looked back at the doctor who stood in front of the bed.

"Alright, it's time to push"
