Love Lost and…found?
I do NOT own dragonball/z/gt. If I did I would pay to know the idiots who created the AP Environmental Science and AP US History Exams. Biased asses.
a/n: Thank you so so so much for you reviews. Got a/n for last chapter confused. This is the chapter I think that you've been waiting for. And I thank my great friend, Alyssa for reading/editing it. If you remember chapter 17 and requested a certain thing, then let's just say that I have fulfilled your dreams. *smirks* If you don't have a clue to what I'm talking about, then you should start reading now.
Faltering Resolve
Xxx DAY 3 xxX
Chi-Chi lazily sat at the little table as she carelessly flipped through the old magazine she had. She was bored out of her freaking mind. But she would rather be bored than deal with that…
"Hey Chi, let's go spar." Goku happily said as he almost ran over to where she was sitting. Speak of the devil, Goku had his hands behind his back as he grinned from ear to ear. Chi-Chi looked up from her magazine then back down as if he had not said anything.
Goku, baffled by her actions, came closer and said in a deafening yet overjoyed voice, "Hey Chi-Chi! Can't you hear me? I said let's go spar."
Chi-Chi looked up at him and briefly met his stare, then resumed looking at the magazine.
"I'd rather not." Chi-Chi vacantly replied, remembering a certain incident yesterday. The smile did not leave Goku's face at all. In fact, it grew even more.
"Well let's play cards!" Goku eagerly said as he slammed the deck of cards on the table to make Chi-Chi jump and glare at him.
"Let me get back to you on that." Chi-Chi said as she turned a page then looked back at the magazine. Goku, still keeping his cheesy grin, snatched the magazine out of her hand and threw it across the room.
"Goku!" Chi-Chi almost screamed, but she didn't. Even with a smile plastered on his face, she could see in Goku's eyes that he was becoming slightly irritated with her again. Him being the least bit irritated meant that he would bother her even more. So Chi-Chi just huffed and puffed, then angrily moved her eyes from his to look at the deck of cards on the table.
"Come on Chi. We can play a different game and I'll let you see my cards. What do you say?" Goku sweetly said. However, Chi-Chi was not paying any attention to what he said again. Her eyebrows had furrowed on her forehead as a small frown came upon her face when she was staring at the deck of cards.
"Ummm…Goku." Chi-Chi said.
"Yep."
"Are those the same cards from the other day?"
"Yeah." Goku responded, not knowing where the conversation was going.
"And where did you get them from?" Chi-Chi asked as she looked up at Goku.
"Where you had placed them."
"But you didn't see where I put them at, because you were sleeping at the time." Chi-Chi said. Goku broke the intense gaze that Chi-Chi was now giving him. He began to fidget with his hands as he attempted to avoid Chi-Chi's eyes.
"Uh…" was the only thing Goku said in his reply. Chi-Chi stood up from the table. Goku noticed and stopped fretting with his hands. He slowly backed up and she took steps towards him.
"Goku, I happen to stumble upon the cards and put them back where I found them some time after we played. If you didn't see where I placed them, then how did you know where they were to begin with?" Chi-Chi asked as they both stopped taking steps.
"Well..see about that…" Goku started coughing at the end, and then hit his chest. Once his coughing fit died down, he stared at Chi-Chi. She waited for him to continue talking. When he obviously wasn't going to do so, her suspicions had been confirmed. Now, she was a bit pissed off. Her cool and blank expression said otherwise.
"Oh okay. Did you plan that entire scenario out?" Chi-Chi bluntly stated, instead of questioned, as she crossed her arms.
Goku uneasily chuckled as he stammered, "Psst….well…I..(clears throat)…know."
"You're lying!" Chi-Chi exclaimed, losing her somewhat nonchalant attitude.
"No, I'm not." Goku quickly replied.
"Goku admit you planned it out. I wouldn't spar with you so you cheated to win so then I had no choice but to spar!" Chi-Chi furiously stated.
"Psst….I…know. But I didn't cheat."
"Yes, you did. What happened to being honest , you liar!" Chi-Chi retorted.
Goku rubbed the back of his head, grinning as he said, "Hey, hey, hey. I'm saying I know as in I know what you're talking about, not no. So I'm actually telling the truth."
"…" She didn't say anything. There were so many rude statements and cursing words that passed through her head now, that she didn't know what to exactly say first. The only thing she could do was coldly glare at Goku.
"Are you mad now Chi-Chi?" Goku said through a smile.
"What the…Why wouldn't I be mad! You tricked me!" Chi-Chi yelled.
"Did I?" Goku asked as his teasing grin became broader.
"Yes!"
"I did?"
"YES!"
"You want to fight me now, don't you?"
"Yes!"
"Well, bring it on Chi!" Goku said as he got into his fighting stance. Chi-Chi looked around and saw that they were already outside. She didn't have time to question how they ended up there because she was too pissed off at the moment.
"You better not change into a Super Saiyan!" Chi-Chi demanded. There was no need for the same thing to happen yesterday.
"I had told you, you wouldn't be able to keep up." Goku simply teased.
"I had told you, you…Shut up!" Chi-Chi mimicked as she got into her graceful fighting stance.
"Oh, those are sparring words Chi." Goku said as his eyes slightly narrowed. A gleam in them was becoming even brighter as a radiant smile came across his face for the umpteenth time already.
"I told you I could get you riled up for anything," Goku mumbled right before Chi-Chi began to attack him.
After they had finished sparring and Chi-Chi successfully avoided Goku's hands from wrapping around her…
Chi-Chi and Goku were sitting on the chamber's steps. Their heart rates had gone into its resting pace, while the sweat among them was gradually going away. They were silent for a while. And Chi-Chi had began to take a sip from the water bottle until,
"Do you love me?"
Chi-Chi spit the water right out.
"You know that's the second time you've done that this week." Goku commented.
"I mean it was out of the blue, once again." Chi-Chi said as she wiped her mouth and placed the water bottle down.
"So, what's your answer this time?" Goku asked as his eyes focused on Chi-Chi's face. She turned to him and cleared her throat before speaking.
"Well, you are the father of my children. I'll always have love for you."
"Let me rephrase the question, are you still in love with me?"
"I'm not answering that." Chi-Chi firmly stated.
"Why not?"
"Because I don't want to. It's just going to make things more awkward in here than it already is."
"Or are you trying to deny the truth."
"Either way, next question." Chi-Chi demanded as she leaned back on the steps to stare at Goku. He looked away from her. He was having difficulty turning his random words into a question. To make matters worse, he knew what it would lead into and he had a feeling of what her answer was going to be even though Emiko had told him otherwise. Some part of him didn't want to ask, but if he wanted a chance to have Chi-Chi back then this had to be said. Goku took a deep breath to remove his nerves before he spoke.
"Do you love me or Rai more?"
"I'm not answering that either. You can't compare the two." Chi-Chi quickly said.
"Yes you can." Goku said, a bit annoyed with her swift response.
"Doesn't matter. Next question."
"You're being mean Chi." Goku said. When she didn't respond or show any emotion he continued to say, "Well let me ask you this, if you had to choose between me or…"
"Rai." Chi-Chi interrupted.
"You answered before I finished and without hesitation." Goku said with a weak smile.
"Because, without thinking about it, I'll choose him. He's provided a home for me. He's saved me. He loves my child. And he loves me. It's natural to think that he's the best option, right?"
"Why are you asking me? You need to ask yourself that. Would you rather be with someone because they're a safe choice or me? You'll have to think about it. And when you do, who would you choose?" Goku seriously asked as his eyes remained locked onto Chi-Chi's. She became unsure. She hadn't given it much thought. Should she? Or more like could she give him another chance? She didn't and wouldn't want to ask herself that. But his eyes. His beautiful dark orbs that resembled a peaceful midnight, that held so much love that millions would envy and always found its way to touch her soul had forced her to question something she absolutely refused to.
"I-I…." Chi-Chi choked. She couldn't speak. And Goku knew then and there about the front she constantly put on. He needed to say something now. He had stumped her with that question and possibly torn down her wall.
"Chi. You know I'll always be in love with you." Goku softly said as he moved closer. This was a great mistake. His movement instantly helped her in suppressing those certain thoughts he brought up.
Chi-Chi greatly sighed as she was snapped from wondering. She closed her eyes as she said, "Goku…I told you once before it will not be enough. I can't…WON'T subject myself to that kind of pain anymore."
"I'll try not to hurt you. I'm a different person than I was before. But… that shouldn't matter. Whatever happened to til death do us part? And you knew when you married me that my job was to save the world. Heck, since we've been together that's the only job I've had." Goku replied.
Chi-Chi opened her eyes as she slightly chuckled before saying "That's true on one case but what about being a good father or husband?"
"That's not a job, that's my duty." Goku defended.
"What's the difference?" Chi-Chi asked.
"I could give up my job at any time if I chose to. However, if something is my duty then I can't give it up so easily without feeling guilty or some type of remorse."
Chi-Chi suddenly became angry as she took in what he said. He definitely had his "job" and "duty" placed in the wrong category. And realizing this made her snap and say, "You say that, but it doesn't change the fact that you always put your so called job first and neglect your duties. In fact it would seem as you consider being a father and husband more as a job and saving the world as your duty."
"And don't fix your mouth to say that's not true. I have YEARS worth of evidence to back me up." Chi-Chi coldly stated as she stood up and dusted herself off. She turned her body to walk away, but not without saying first, "You asked what ever happened to til death do us part. And I wonder have you realized yet that you've already died once in reality, twice in my heart, and several times in my mind."
Chi-Chi stormed away, leaving Goku to sit on the steps and ponder on what she just said.
Xxx Day 4 xxX
Chi-Chi was completely stressed out. So she resorted to doing the thing that calmed her down the most, Pilates. But that didn't help as it left her to contemplate her thoughts:
His voice echoed in her head, "You'll have to think about it. And when you do, who would you choose?"
I don't know. But I find that I can't help but to think about it. I married him for a reason. And I knew from the beginning that he was always the one to save the world. Who am I to hold that against him? Does it make me a bad person when I do? And then the words I said...
"And I wonder have you realized yet that you've already died once in reality, twice in my heart, and several times in my mind."
I've wanted to say that to him for some time now. It felt good at first but afterwards… I couldn't help but to feel like I've caused him the same amount of pain he had caused me. I didn't really want to, no matter how great I felt in that moment, to hurt him like that. And I know for a fact that what I said greatly upset him. He didn't speak to me the rest of the day. He even remained in the same spot on the chamber steps until dinner. And even then, he barely talked. I've never seen him like this. The Goku years back would've remained in his happy-go-lucky state, not appear so affected by what I said…Maybe Goku has changed. And for the better. But would that mean…
"What'cha doing Chi?" Goku merrily said as he snuck up behind Chi-Chi, who immediately jumped out of her downward facing dog position.
"Don't scare me like that Goku! I was just doing Pilates." Chi-Chi stated.
"What's Pilates?" Goku said as he scratched his head. Chi-Chi briefly smiled as she gladly thought, I'm pleased he doesn't seem mad at me anymore.
Chi-Chi came out of her thoughts to give an educated response, "It's a way for you to relax your muscles and stretch to achieve great tone and maximum flexibility."
"Uh okay. So why are you dressed like that?" Goku said as if he not heard a word she had said. His eyes went up and down so much that Chi-Chi had begun to flush with slight embarrassment.
"Uh, well you see I haven't washed my training outfits yet, since you've been bothering me. And the only thing I had to wear was this thing that Bulma had packed in her extra capsule she gave me." Chi-Chi nervously said. She was wearing a shirt that resembled a training bra and some running shorts.
"You could've worn one of my shirts or pants. Your stomach is showing and then look at your legs." Goku said as his eyes finally went back up to Chi-Chi's now crimson red face.
"What about them?" Chi-Chi said, her anger beginning to boil underneath the surface.
"Nothing. They're perfect Chi." Goku said as he did his famous Son smile. Chi-Chi's fury automatically vanished with a tiny smile appearing in its place. Goku then turned to walk away, but Chi-Chi grabbed his arm to make him turn around.
"Listen…I'm sorry about the other day. Maybe I was a bit too harsh."
"There's no need to apologize. You were saying what's on your mind. Plus, I forgot most of what you said." Goku sheepishly said as he smiled and rubbed the back of his head.
"You what!"
"I'm just joking Chi. Calm down." Goku quickly said as he put his hands up to calm her.
"Don't tell me to calm down! That's not anything to joke about. I'm so mad at you I want to…"
"Spar?"
"Yea…" Chi-Chi stopped herself. Goku eyed her, uncertain of what she was about to do next. She appeared to have realized something. He couldn't tell. All he knew was the sudden silence was a bit nerve-racking.
Chi-Chi yelled, "You! I'm not sparring with you! You manipulator!"
"Manipu-what?"
"Manipulator!"
"What's that?"
"A person who tricks and lies to another to get them to do something." Chi-Chi stated.
"Oh, come on Chi. Look at me. Does this face look like a manipulator?"
"Yes! Yes it does!"
"How?" Goku asked as his face seemed completely and utterly confused.
"It's too cute and handsome, so you lure people in with your attractive looks and don't get me started on…" Chi-Chi paused. Shit did I just say that? Damn him! He did it again!
Goku was grinning as he teased, "Oh no please don't stop. I want to hear what you have to say."
"I have nothing else to say." Chi-Chi mumbled as she bowed her head.
"Then let me teach you the kamehameha. You have nothing else better to do Chi. And I will harass you until you do." Goku said as he took Chi-Chi's hand and made her follow him a few feet away from the house in the time chamber.
"You REALLY are troublesome." Chi-Chi stated as Goku stopped and released her hand.
"That's why you love me." Goku said so fast and low, that Chi-Chi barely heard him.
"What did you say?"
"I didn't say anything."
"I know, you said some words. What were they?"
"If you can control your ki, I'll let you know."
Chi-Chi's eyes narrowed as she stated, "This plus your conniving ways equals the thought that I just can't stand you."
"Yeah right, I love you too Chi." Goku quietly said through a grin. Once again, she couldn't hear him.
"What?" Chi-Chi asked.
"In order to do a blast, you…"
"You're not about to ignore me! You need to stop mumbling and tell me what you said!" Chi-Chi furiously commanded.
"I said, 'In order to do.."
"I'm not talking about that!"
"If you're not, then it doesn't matter right now. It's time to be quiet and listen to me."
Chi-Chi immediately flew towards Goku and tried to strike him. Goku blocked it and held onto her hand.
"I guess you want to get your blood running before you do the kamehameha. That's fine with me." Goku said with a dangerous smirk, sending shivers up Chi-Chi's back. She ignored that feeling as she stated, "NO one, and I mean NO ONE tells me to be quiet."
"Except me. And what about Gohan, when we were arguing some time ago."
"You like pissing me off, don't you."
Goku smiled at her question, "You should know that by now." And at that they began to spar for some time. Any anger Chi-Chi had disappeared during that. She actually began smiling a bit, until Goku had came close to picking her up again. She made them take an immediate break. After that Goku thought it would be time to teach Chi-Chi.
"Alright, today you will learn the flowing ocean that the kamehameha wave came. And master that ocean to swim. Or in other words you will ride the boat and don't sink the ship."
"Goku. What are you talking about?" Chi-Chi asked as a sweat dropped down her forehead.
Goku shrugged, "I don't know. Master Roshi said that if I ever got lucky and was about to teach a beautiful woman the kamehameha wave, then I should say it."
Chi-Chi slightly blushed as she stated, "Please never, EVER, say something like that again. The kamehamha wave part, of course."
Goku grinned as he said, "Sure Chi-Chi. So let's get started. Let me see your stance."
Chi-Chi bent down and turned her left side towards Goku. She slightly crouched and pulled her hands back. She had did it perfectly, yet Goku shook his head.
"What?"
"Your stance is perfect, but I can already tell this is going to be hard. Can you try to draw your ki to one area in your body, like your hands?"
Chi-Chi came right out of her stance as she looked at Goku crazily. Then she said, "How in the heck am I supposed to do that?"
"Ummm…Like this." Goku said as he stuck one hand out in a direction away from them to shoot a yellow beam.
"That's not helping me at all." Chi-Chi replied.
Goku scratched his head as he really thought about it while Chi-Chi heavily sighed and rubbed the temples of her forehead.
"I got it!" Goku cheerfully said, making Chi-Chi look up at him.
"What?" Chi-Chi asked. Instead of answering her right away, Goku walked right up behind Chi- Chi. He placed both of his hands on her shoulders. His breath tickled the back of her neck.
"I want you to close your eyes to relax and stay calm. Now focus the energy you have and try to summon it to one area." Goku instructed.
"O-Okay." Chi-Chi stuttered. Crap, I was trying to avoid this during our spar. And if I say something, then he'll suspect something. Chi-Chi thought.
"No, no. I can tell exactly where you're pulling all that energy to." Goku said as his arms went around Chi-Chi's body and his hands were placed upon her bare stomach. The skin on skin contact sent a certain fire and spark throughout Chi-Chi's body. She hysterically thought, No, no, no! He's touching me right there! Just remain calm Chi!
"I don't know why you have all your ki focused here." Goku mumbled, sending another cool breath to graze Chi-Chi's neck. That figures all the energy is going there because that's where those annoying butterflies are. Chi-Chi thought.
She needed to keep herself together. Trying to blow this thing out of proportion would make him suspicious. And she couldn't have that.
"You need to move this energy up and into your arms. Focus. You can do it." Goku said as his let his hands glide over Chi-Chi's body so they could be placed on top of her hands, intertwining his fingers with hers.
"Now, I want you to get into that stance. And don't worry I'm right behind you." Goku whispered. He pushed his body closer to hers. His chest rose and fell in correspondence to hers, which began to pick up. Goku then inched his head to the side of hers. His chin was about to rest on her left shoulder. And they were about to crouch down until Chi-Chi swiftly broke out of his arms. I can't do it anymore! Chi-Chi screamed in her head.
"It's getting hot in here." Chi-Chi said as she fanned herself to get rid of the sweat that had snuck upon her forehead.
"I know. And it's a shame you can't take the heat. I thought you were already familiar with it."
"What?" Chi-Chi questioned. Maybe she was hearing things, because the tone he had sounded very seductive.
"I'm saying if you're all hot and bothered now from just that, then you obviously can't handle this type of situation anymore. You'll end up crying or fainting from exhaustion within two to three minutes."
Alright that definitely sounded sexual. Maybe I'm over thinking things. "Okay, we are talking about the temperature, right?"
"Well the temperature is increasing right now to reach about 100 degrees Celsius. What else did you think I was talking about?" Goku innocently questioned. Notice he did not directly answer the question, because Chi-Chi sure didn't.
"Oh, nothing." Chi-Chi stuttered.
"Chi-Chi you're lying again. What ever happened to being honest? You keep going back on your words. It isn't a good thing. It's never a good thing. And didn't you tell me…"
"SEX, Goku SEX. I thought you were talking about SEX! Are you happy now?" Chi-Chi wrathfully interrupted as she turned and walked back towards the house. Goku smiled as he thought, I knew it. And I was talking about that.
Xxx Day 5 xxX
Chi-Chi was nicely folding some clothes. She dropped her shirt to the floor and when she picked it up she almost had a heart attack. Goku was standing right before her, with a towel wrapped tightly around his waist as water slowly trickled down his marvelous chest. Chi-Chi frantically shook her head as she tried to remove the thoughts that quickly came into her head.
"GOKU! Why are you coming out the bathroom like that!" Chi-Chi screeched.
"Well. Chi-Chi. I couldn't…" Goku began to say as he removed the towel from his waist to dry his hair.
"Goku!" Chi-Chi interrupted him with another yell.
"What?" He asked, suddenly startled by her shriek.
"Y-You're…G-go….Put your towel back on!" Chi-Chi screamed.
"Why? You act like you never seen me naked before Chi." Goku casually replied as he continued to dry his hair with the towel. He began to ramble on about not being able to find his shirt. Chi-Chi couldn't tell as her eyes followed a water drop that went from his gorgeous face down to his muscled chest and across his perfect abs all the way down to his…..
Her eyes widen as her mouth slightly dropped open. There's no way. It couldn't possibly have gotten bi.. I…What the….But why am I looking at it! Chi-Chi thought as she tried to pull her eyes away from Goku's lower area. Goku noticed that Chi-Chi was staring at him, and not at the eye level. He smirked inside as he then decided to toy with her at this moment.
"Hey, Chi. You look a bit scared? What's wrong?" Goku innocently asked as he wrapped the towel back around his waist and walked towards her. Chi-Chi absently took steps back.
"Uhhh…Nothing." Chi-Chi stammered. A slight smile came across his face.
"Then why are you taking steps away from me?" Goku asked.
"I-I'm not." Chi-Chi stuttered as she was unintentionally backed up into a corner.
"You know. There's nothing to be scared of. I won't do anything to you." He leaned his head forward, eyes daring hers as he continued to say, "Not unless you want me to." His licked his soft lips as his face came close enough for Chi-Chi to drown in his scent. He was so close to kissing her until she moved her entire body to the side and away from the wall. She fanned herself as she said, "I think the steam is making it get a little too hot in here. I can't have you too close, you know. I might pass out or have a heat stroke. I'm going to get something to drink."
"But there's no steam left from the bath I took." Goku said.
"Yes, there is. That's why it's hot." Chi-Chi retorted.
"Whatever you say Chi." Goku said with a heartbreaking smile. Chi-Chi's almost melted with that as she ran off to the kitchen. She got a pitcher full of ice cold water from the fridge and poured it all on herself.
"That's much better." Chi-Chi sighed as she let her body slide to the floor.
"What is?" Goku asked out of nowhere, startling the shit out of Chi-Chi. He was already dressed. How he did it so fast, she had no clue. She needed to worry about explaining her current situation.
"N-Nothing." Chi-Chi stammered.
"I thought you were thirsty. So why did you pour all the water over yourself."
"N-No reason. Okay. Gosh. Stop asking questions." Chi-Chi stated as if she was being aggravated by him.
"Stop acting scared," Goku replied.
"I'm not scared!"
"I thought we were being honest Chi."
Chi-Chi mimicked, "I thought we were being… just get out of here!"
Goku laughed at Chi-Chi's hissy fit. Then as he was about to walk out the room he said, "I was just saying. It's not healthy to keep telling lies."
Chi-Chi threw the pitcher right at his head. Goku ducked and poked his tongue at Chi-Chi. "Missed me!"
"Really?" Chi-Chi said as she stood up and grabbed a frying pan from over the stove. Goku's eyes instantly widen as he began to look a little anxious. Chi-Chi smirked when she noticed his expression.
She copied his prior words as she teased, "What's wrong? There's nothing to be scared of? I won't do anything to you."
Goku gulped as he asked, "Honest?"
"Hell no. You better run!" Chi-Chi seriously threatened as Goku took off in a sprint, with her chasing after him.
A Few Minutes Later…
Goku feverishly rubbed his head which had a big lump on it.
"Oww, Owww, Owww." Goku said. He then turned his head towards Chi-Chi and looked at her with the biggest but cutest mix of a scowl and pout. Chi-Chi busted out laughing.
"It's not funny Chi! You cheated. You were supposed to use your hands to hit me with it, not throw it!"
Chi-Chi chuckled at him some more, which then made him go on a rant about being fair in a fight. Chi-Chi wasn't paying the least bit attention to what he was saying. She had stopped laughing. Her head rested upon one of her hands by which her elbow was propped up on. And her eyes were gazing upon his face as he kept ranting on.
He's changed. And as much as I try to hide and suppress it, I just can't anymore. I need to stop lying to myself. It's not healthy, like he said.
"I mean, sure I use instant transmission . Some may not consider it fair but that isn't…."
His face, charm, and overwhelming enthusiasm make him irresistible. And I can't help to feel like I did over 15 years ago.
"training is what I did to get such a technique. And by right I should use it. But you…"
It's a shame. I'm even lying to myself now.
"That was dirty. I mean I'm not complaining. But then again …"
I never stopped feeling that way.
"What do you think Chi?"
To simply put it
"I'm in love with you." Chi-Chi whispered.
"Exactly. And fights should be…."
It hit him like a ton of bricks.
"Wait, come again?" Goku asked as he turned his head towards Chi-Chi. I know I didn't say that out loud. Oh, crap! Play it cool, play it cool. Don't look phased. And make up a lie.
"I'm above you in reasoning. My throat's a little parched, so (clears throat) my words may come out wrong. And by the way you're looking at me you must've thought I said something else." Chi-Chi quickly stated as she got up from the steps and went into the kitchen
Later…
Working out often cleared his mind and calmed him down. For that reason, he had been doing push-ups for the longest time now. And at this time he was losing in a battle with his opponent. That opponent was himself. It was that natural instinct which had demanded him to grab hold of Chi-Chi after he thought he heard her confess her feelings. But Goku, didn't want to scare her off. The last time he had made a move, Chi-Chi had came to her senses.
I just don't know what to do. It's becoming harder to control myself. Goku thought as he transitioned over to doing air strikes.
I thought that after our discussion the day before yesterday that she hated me. And as I sat on those chamber steps, I thought about giving up. But when she went asleep later on and looked so peaceful, I had this sudden urge to have her in my arms. I knew that if I wanted to hold her again that I couldn't give up. I would have to keep trying, even if she hated me.
Goku paused and looked off towards the white distance
But she doesn't, I think. I'm almost positive of what she said. And if she did…
"Goku, the food's ready." Chi-Chi yelled from far away, snapping Goku out of his thoughts. Surprisingly, he took his time going to the kitchen. When he arrived Chi-Chi was already sitting down and eating. She smiled at him upon entering and he took his seat across from her.
Now the only thing that could be heard was the sound of a clashing utensil, and it wasn't coming from Goku. Surprisingly once again, he was just picking over his food.
"What's wrong Goku? You're not talking." Chi-Chi asked.
"It's nothing Chi. Nothing is wrong, it's actually quite right." Goku said as he forced a smile.
"But you're barely eating. Aren't you hungry?" Chi-Chi asked as she took the last bite of her food.
Not for this. Goku thought. But in response to Chi-Chi's question he smiled again then attacked his food. Chi-Chi, not knowing what to think, took her empty dishes to the sink to wash them. Goku instantly cleared his plate and let his eyes follow her form. Soon he began to battle his instinct once again. His heart paced fiercely inside his chest. Each beat felt like it was pounding against his ribcage. And the pesky butterflies had made its way to his stomach.
What if she really didn't say that? What if I was imagining it? But I know what I heard, so why don't I just do it. Why am I actually scared?
Chi-Chi turned away from the sink and walked to the table.
"Are you full?" Chi-Chi asked as she picked up the empty plates.
"Y-yes." Goku actually stammered. Chi-Chi paused a second to look at him with concerned eyes. Something didn't look right with him. Chi-Chi held the dishes in one hand as she put the back of other one up to his forehead.
"Why does your skin feel clammy? Are you sick?" Chi-Chi asked as she removed her hand.
Love sick. Goku thought but said out loud with a grin, "No, I'm fine Chi."
"Okay." Chi-Chi said as she walked to take the dishes to the sink.
Her gentle touch did not help. I just want to do it even more. What if she rejects me? Hasn't she been doing that all along? But… I won't know unless I try. After all what do I have to lose?
Chi-Chi placed the dishes in the sink. She was about to resume washing them, until Goku turned her around and crushed his lips against hers.
His lips may have been pressed against hers, yet instead they were soft and gentle. His arms quickly wrapped around her waist, deepening the kiss. And she could feel as her lips began to respond to his. She was melting away in his grasp as the small fire had been ignited to send chills down her back.
But some part of it didn't feel right. She was supposed to be remembering about something or someone right now. Before she lost herself, Chi-Chi started to mumble in Goku's kisses for him to stop. She faintly pushed with her hands that were on his chest. But he wouldn't let up. She tried to mumble one last time and a little louder. Goku momentarily drew his lips from her. With his head resting upon her forehead he simply stated, "Chi-Chi. Shut up."
Shocked, Chi-Chi did that as he pressed his lips firmly against hers once again. And it was like a dam had been torn down, flooding her with sudden passion. She began to respond more to him.
His kisses suddenly became eager. He grabbed Chi-Chi's waist and hoisted her up on the counter. His body pressed up against hers with her hands still on his chest. Chi-Chi head was touching the small cabinets as Goku lips captured hers.
She was supposed to remember someone. She shouldn't be…
He parted her lips with his tongue, entering it effortlessly as he swirled his tongue around to taste every section in her mouth. His tongue exited and he bit on her lip as he drew back. Then he delicately kissed from her mouth to her jaw line and down to her neck.
She almost had the name of who she was supposed to remember until…
His teeth slightly grazed the tender part of her neck, making her whimper. He smoothly licked and sucked it. When he did such, the small fire automatically traveled down to in between her legs.
Goku pulled away and looked into her eyes. His was full of overwhelming lust while hers were nothing but a mirror of his.
"Were you saying something Chi?" Goku asked breathlessly. Now it was her chance. But to be honest, all of her thoughts had long gone. And only a dire need for him and his body remained.
She slowly shook her head no. Goku smiled as he picked Chi-Chi up bridal style and carried her right to the bed.
He undressed himself as Chi-Chi watched him intently. The way she stared at his body, added to his craving for her. Goku had to stop himself from pouncing on her as he leaned down on the bed. He hovered over her body staring down at her precious face; asking her with his eyes if he should continue while he fought the intense urge within him to ravish the hell out of her body right then and there. She had to desire him just as much as he desired her, or this moment wouldn't mean anything.
He got his answer as soon as Chi-Chi brought his lips down to meets hers to resume what they had started in the kitchen.
Her gentle touch felt like she had set his skin aflame. His urgency grew. His kisses became fiercer as his tongue steadily entered her mouth to savor her taste. And before Chi-Chi knew it, Goku had ripped away her clothes with hands. He leaned up briefly to toss it to the side, then lied back down to be somewhat on top of her.
The skin on skin contact, made the fire felt between her legs flourish even more. She instantly responded to his deep kisses by going to war with his tongue.
Goku bit her lip once again as he parted from them. His mouth trailed down her body with gentle kisses, licking and sucking the sensitive part of her neck. His hands had easily removed her bra. And his mouth went further down to take in one breast with his mouth. His tongue flicked over her nipple. Then his teeth slightly nibbled it, forcing a soft moan to escape Chi-Chi's mouth.
While his mouth worked at making her nipples perk, his hand gradually traveled down to remove her panties. Once they were out of the way, he let his middle finger gently trace around her hole before thrusting it into her wetness. He moved in and out. His mouth and finger worked at a perfect pace, further enticing Chi-Chi's body by which a much louder moan came.
His mouth made a transition to completely take Chi-chi's other breast; sucking it as if it would quench his thirst. He added his index finger with his middle finger to plunge into her inside.
His hands and mouth were synchronized with each other; going at a rhythm making Chi-Chi moan even louder while she felt her mound throb even more. Goku let his thumb go and rub on it in circles. Chi-Chi's breathing hiked up. Her heart pound against her chest as the astonishing feelings pulsated within her body. Her back slightly arched up from the bed, making Goku engulf her breast even more. Moans became more profound. His fingers went in and out at a faster pace just as his thumb circled her clit. Chills went from her back down to her legs, making them tremble. And soon she came.
As Chi-Chi tried to catch her breath, Goku lifted his head and moved his fingers, licking them to remove any trace of cum.
"You're sweeter than ever, Chi." Goku stated as he removed his boxers. He spread Chi-Chi's legs. Then he positioned himself on top of her; propping himself upon his elbows so he wouldn't crush her. His hardened member was already erect and throbbing from the need to be placed inside of her. Chi-Chi knew this, but was worried. It had been that long since he's been inside of her. Goku washed her worries away as he gently kissed her, moving inside in the process. The ache for him grew even more.
Chi-Chi whimpered in pain, as he filled her up. Tears packed her eyes. Goku looked at her with worried eyes. She responded with a passionate kiss, to assure him. He continued as he slowly went in and out. Chi-Chi's pain eventually turned to pure pleasure with each stroke. Her moans told such. So, Goku picked his pace up, thrusting in and out; going as deep as he possibly could. Chi-Chi's hips began to move in perfect rhythm with his, moving her hips forward as he thrust in.
His pace picked up even more and Chi-Chi kept up. Hearts were racing. Sweat built up. Climaxes were coming closers. A dire urge rose even more to scream in her loud moans of Goku's name. His moans harmonized to hers.
He thrusted harder and faster, practically banging his body into hers now. Her legs greatly quivered. Her fingers frantically dug into his back. Her moans turned into screams. And she let go. Her walls tightening around his hardened member as she came. Goku soon followed after hearing her crying out in unbelievable and incredible ecstasy.
Goku fell to the bed, thoroughly exhausted. He wrapped his arm around a trembling Chi-Chi to pull her closer. He noticed how tears had flowed down her face. Goku delicately placed a hand upon her face as he leaned down to kiss the tears away. Chi-Chi smiled. And Goku knew from her expression that those tears were only a result of the overpowering pleasure she just experienced.
They dwelled in the room's essence wrapped in each other's arms, drenched in sweat. Once they ceased to pant and their heart pace settled Goku turned his head to look at Chi-Chi.
"Hey, you know I could've used instant transmission to get us out of this room."
Chi-Chi's eyes widen, and then settled into slits. She immediately broke out of Goku's grasp and grabbed a pillow from under his head, making his head fall back against the bed. She hit him in the face several times then tried to smother him.
"I can't believe you! It was probably your plan on along to seduce me!" Chi-Chi screamed as she pushed the pillow in Goku's face. Goku sat up and snatched the pillow from Chi-Chi. He threw it across the room. And in a second he had her pinned down.
"It wasn't my original plan, just a bonus." Goku said.
"I-I…OH, I'm going to hurt you." Chi-Chi said through a daring smile.
"You know I love it when you're feisty Chi. But this teasing me is what got you in trouble in the first place. And it seems like I need to teach you another lesson." Goku said through a seductive tone and with a dangerous smirk.
Then they picked up from where they left off. And the remainder of the "day" and "night" was filled with nothing but passionate sex of the two rekindled lovers.
Xxx DAY 6 xxX
"Goku you don't play fair!" Chi-Chi playfully said as if she was angry. Truth be told, she was probably the happiest and calmest person in all the universes of the North quadrant, even though she currently laid out on the bathroom floor butt-naked and thoroughly exhausted. Goku smiled down at Chi-Chi as he put on his gi top. He walked over to her and bent down to kiss her tenderly on the lips.
Once he pulled back he smiled and said, " Didn't you tell me before that all is fair in love and war."
"Whatever Goku. You say that because you can walk now. I'm too tired to even stand up thanks to you." Chi-Chi retorted; crossing her arms as she playfully pouted and turned her head away from Goku.
"Oh I can help you stand up again Chi." Goku said as he inched his face closer to hers. When Chi-Chi turned his head he continued to smoothly say, "But I might lose control again if your body was to touch mine. And you wouldn't want that to happen, would you? After all, aren't you sore right now?"
Chi-Chi gulped. Hell yeah, she was tired and sore. But with him talking and looking at her that way, it was pushed deep within her mind. And the only thing that arose was this sudden desire for him. Goku could see it within her eyes. And damn it, they were at it again.
Later…
"Come on Goku. Let's go already. I have everything in a capsule." Chi-Chi said.
"I was just checking the hourglass. We have to be out of here within an hour. I know what we can do now!" Goku happily said through a smirk. And before she could object, he had his lips against hers again.
Somehow, Chi-Chi doesn't know how, she was able to slightly push Goku away and say, "Goku! Listen now, this doesn't make sense to do it right now."
"I know. One hour won't be enough." Goku replied as he tried to kiss her again.
"Goku if we don't get out of here, we'll be stuck in here for eternity."
"I don't have a problem with that." Goku said as he moved his face towards Chi-Chi. She knew if he kissed her, then it was all over. Therefore, she had to think something up. And she knew just what.
"Goku, if we stay in here forever, then we'll eventually run out of food." Chi-Chi stated. Goku ceased any further movement. His arms automatically dropped from holding her.
"Well what are you waiting for! Come on Chi!" Goku quickly said as he grabbed Chi-Chi's hand and hurried off to the door. But before he could turn the doorknob, Goku released her hand. He had abruptly stopped. And he stood right before the door, completely silent. He was like that for more than a few seconds.
"What's wrong Goku?" Chi-Chi asked, full of concern. Goku turned around with a serene expression on his face.
"Can I ask you one final question?" Goku said.
"You just did." Chi-Chi laughed, but Goku didn't.
"I'm serious Chi." Goku replied.
"Okay Goku. Ask away." Chi-Chi said with a smile as she held in her chuckle with her hand.
"What would you say now if I ask you who you would choose between me and Rai?" Goku questioned. Chi-Chi smile instantly vanished and her hand dropped from her mouth. She heavily sighed as she looked elsewhere. She fretted with her fingers for a while.
And then she quietly said, "Truth be told, I don't know Goku."
Chi-Chi expected some kind of response. When she didn't get one in 20 long seconds she moved her eyes back to him and was surprised to see that he had the Son smile plastered upon his face.
"It's okay. Let's go Chi." Goku happily said as he grabbed her hand. Chi-Chi smiled in response and squeezed his hand. And together they walked out the hyperbolic time chamber.
