Chapter 21: Recovering.

The next day I was allowed to go home. Goku took me to his home while Mom gathered me some clothes. She wasn't really too happy that I was moving in with him. She told Dad about it and he hated the idea. Miku took it better than I thought he would. I guess since Goku saved my life he trusted him more, but whether my family liked it or not I was moving in with Goku. After all, I am a grown woman.

The first thing Goku did when we were at his house was carry me up in his bed room and he laid me on his bed. It made me sort of mad. It was sweet for him to carry me like that but I had crutches. . .and I could of taken the couch instead. Oh well.

He carefully laid me on his bed and slid my shoes off my feet. My eyes felt heavy and I yawned. He draped a big blanket over me and kissed my forehead. I smiled up at him a little bit.

"You just rest. If you need anything yell for me. I'll be back as quick as I can, I have to go get Goten." he said as he put another pillow behind my head.

I nodded and whispered, " 'Kay."

He walked out of the room and then I drifted off to sleep.

I began to dream. Goku and I were sitting in his home with me in his lap on the couch. We were sitting there talking. . .just talking. Then we began to kiss, to make out. For awhile we sat there making out then all of the sudden Yamcha appeared behind Goku and snapped his neck. Goku fell over and his eyes rolled in the back of his head. He was. . .dead.

"Goku! NO!" I screamed out in my dream. Tears began to pour from my eyes. Yamcha broke my legs to where I couldn't move then began to rape me. I screamed really loudly and he wouldn't quit.



I woke up drenched in sweat, crying and yelling for Goku. He was sitting right on the bed in front of me shaking me a little bit.

"Alice. . .Alice. . .shh. . .wake up." he said as he shook me gently. I opened my eyes fully and I was awake. I looked at Goku and threw my arms around him, crying. He held me and stroked my hair.

"Alice. . .what's wrong?" he asked.

"I had a terrible dream." I said through my tears.

"What happened?" he asked.

"Yamcha killed you. . .then violated me." I said as I cried harder.

Goku hugged me and let me cry. He stroked my hair and rubbed my back till I finally calmed down.

"It's okay Alice. . .everything is gonna be okay." he said.

"I don't wanna lose you. . .I love you. . ." I whispered.

"I don't wanna lose you either. . .I Love you so much. . ."he whispered.

I kissed him gently then just rested my head on his chest. I fell asleep again.



The next day, I woke up at about noon. I heard Goku and Goten outside training.

I grabbed my crutches, got out of bed and went to the bathroom. After I got out I tried going downstairs. Guess how well that went? I went tumbling down the stairs screaming and was at the floor before Goku and Goten got in the house.

"Ow. . ." I said.

Goku picked me up off the ground. "Are you okay?" he asked.

"Yeah, are you okay Alice?" Goten said.

I nodded. "I'm fine. . .just hurts. I fell." I said.

Goku went and laid me on the couch. Damn leg. . .why does it have to be broken? I mean really, I would rather have a broken arm. Goten came up to me and hugged me. Aw, he's such a sweet little child. He never caused me any trouble when I came over. He was much like Goku.

I smiled at him. "Thanks, Goten." I said quietly.

"How did you get hurt, Alice?" he asked me.

"Don't worry about it, dear. . ." I said.

"But I wanna know. You were in the hospital for a really long time." he said while looking at me with great concern. I just shook my head and hugged him.

"Don't worry. I'll be just fine." I said.

He sighed and nodded. "Okay then." he said.

Goku turned to Goten. "Goten. . .let's get back to training. Alice if you need anything, anything at all, yell for me." he said as he began to walk outside. He had no shirt on and there was snow on the ground outside.

"Goku!" I yelled at him.

He stopped and turned around to look at me. "Yeah?" he said.

"Go put a sweater on or something! Your gonna get sick!" I exclaimed.

He chuckled softly and went and got the sweater I knitted for him and put it on.

"Better?" he asked.

I smiled and nodded. "Much. Now don't over work yourself. You neither, Goten." I said.

Goten smiled and laughed. "I won't, Alice." he said.

"You put a sweater on too, Goten." I said.

Goten went upstairs and got him a sweater then went outside with Goku.

I rolled over and just watched some soap opera that was on T.V. I was THAT bored.

Maybe it was a good thing that I was living with Goku and Goten. . .I mean really. When they train they don't wear shirts. They'd end up sick.

Hopefully I heal up soon.
