note: I didn't create DBZ or Sailor Moon! @_@ Ha ha! *runs around like an insane person head-banging to Linkin Park* *cough* Sorry about that. Yes, it's time for some comic relief methinks! Get ready, get set and enter the insane asyluummm... I mean the house of Bejita and Bulma.
Chapter 10
"WOOOOMAAAAAAN!"
"What is it now Vejita?!"
"The wretched look-alike of you has done it again!"
"Vejita! Her name is Bura and she is your daughter!"
"WOMAN! I can't control this hyped-up brat!"
"Fine!!! I'm coming you blockheaded saiya-jin!" Bulma stomped down the stairs from her laboratory and into the kitchen to see the sight of a distraught Vejita covered from head to toe with yellow banana pudding, a pink plastic spoon stuck in his hair, and wearing a bib that said in big pink letters: "MY DADDY LOVES ME". Bulma couldn't help herself and she busted out laughing, pointing at the ever so pissed off Vejita.
"I am covered in this... this baby food supplement and all you can do is laugh?!" Vejita roared and plucked the spoon out of his hair.
"Spoon!" Bura said and tried reaching for the spoon in Vejita's hand.
"Oh no you don't brat!" Vejita growled at the child. "You're not going to use this food utensil to throw your mush at me anymore!" The little blue-haired infant growled at her father in response and replied, "Spoon! Spoon!" Vejita couldn't say no to the child, and handed over the spoon. She immediately dug the spoon into the bowl of pudding and threw it at her father. It spattered against his forehead and Vejita twitched un-controllably, while Bulma was still rolling on the floor in fits of laughter.
"Daddy! Eat!" said the little girl and she shoved a spoon full of spinach-mush into Vejita's mouth.
"That's it! I'm through with this! And you can forget about me putting up with Kakorotto's mate and children tonight woman! It's not happening!" and with that Vejita stalked into the family room and plunked down in his LA-Z BOY.
Bulma finally got up while wiping the tears that were streaming down her face. She cleaned up Bura's high chair and the entire area around it since just about everything was splattered with baby food.
"Momma!" Bura gurgled and wiggled her fingers at her mother who picked her up.
"Did you feed Daddy?" Bulma talked in a baby voice to the little girl who laughed, "Yes you did! You fed Daddy!" Bulma said as to the little girl as she walked into the family room and set her daughter in the floor with some toys. She turned to face Vejita.
"Vejita, you need to go change. ChiChi and her sons will be here any minute." Vejita didn't move, he didn't even acknowledge that Bulma was there because his eyes were glued to the television. Bulma gritted her teeth and stepped in front of the TV.
"WOMAN! You are in the way! Don't you see I am trying to watch this program about the mechanical machines that compete against each other with the host that is hair-challenged?!"
"Vejita! Get upstairs and get dressed right now! And you better find out what Trunks is doing as well! DO IT or else you'll be putting Bura to sleep tonight!"
Vejita scowled but got up and made his way up the stairs. 'Crazy woman, bratty kids, Kakarotto, what else do I need?' Vejita thought. He stopped at Trunks room and banged on the door.
"Trunks! You'd better be doing something productive in there boy!" Vejita yelled, but in response Vejita heard Trunks' music turned up louder. 'Insolent teenagers' Vejita thought.
***
The door bell to Capsule Corp rang throughout the house and Bulma ran down the stairs, at the same time putting in her earring. She quickly walked past Vejita who was sitting, watching a boxing tournament. Bulma gave him a brief glare on her way to the door. "Trunks! Get down here! They're here!" Bulma yelled as she unlocked the door. She was greeted by an elated ChiChi.
"Bulma!"
"ChiChi!"
"It's been so long!"
"Oh, I know. How have you been? Why didn't Goku come and say goodbye before he left?"
"Oh, I've been great and you know Goku, he actually forgot which day he was going back on! You have to meet Usa!"
"Yes, of course! But come in! Come in!"
Bulma ushered ChiChi, Gohan, Goten, and Usa into the house. She greeted Gohan and Goten with a smile and a hug and a few friendly words. Goten instantly ran up the stairs to Trunks' room.
Usa felt uncomfortable standing there. She wondered if she should say hello first, but she soon felt calm when Bulma greeted her so pleasantly.
"Hello Usa, my name is Bulma Briefs." she shook hands with Usa and smiled. Usa returned the smile and gripped Bulma's hand in a friendly manner, and all of her royal upbringing came back to her.
"Good evening Mrs. Briefs. It's a pleasure to meet you. I am so very thankful that you invited me to dine with you and your family tonight." Usa delicately said.
"No need to be so formal." Bulma smiled and took Usa's arm and lead her into the family room, with ChiChi and Gohan not far behind. "I'd like you to meet my husband, Vejita." Bulma said. Vejita sat there watching TV, flipping channels randomly.
"VEJITA!" Bulma screeched.
"What woman?" Vejita said nonchalantly.
"I want you to meet Usa."
"Usa who?" Vejita sneered.
"Usa.... uh, what is your last name dear?" Bulma asked.
"My name is Chiba Usa." (AN: Ha, Chiba-usa, Chibi-usa, get it? Ha! o_O) Usa said and curtseyed to Vejita.
"Hmph." Vejita groaned and got up from his seat. "All right. When do we eat woman?" Bulma turned beet red and began yelling at Vejita, and it wouldn't be the last yelling match of the evening.
***
All seven of the guests at the night's dinner sat around the table enjoying the meal that Bulma had ordered out for. All conversation came from Bulma and ChiChi chatting up a storm. Goten and Trunks said a few words every so often since they were sitting across from each other, but each of them also seated next to Vejita, who was at the head of the table. Usa was sitting next to Goten, across from Gohan who was next to ChiChi and Bulma was at the end of the table.
"Hey Trunks, did you hear that new song that came out?" Goten asked.
"No, what's it called?"
"It's called 'In The End', by Linkin Park."
"Cool, do you have the cd?"
"Second spawn of Kakarotto shut up! And Trunks, eat your food, or so help me.." Vejita was going to continue, but..
"VEJITA! They are just trying to have some friendly conversation!"
"Must you always butt in woman?!" Vejita yelled across the table banging his fist onto the table so hard everyone's glasses shook.
"Well, if you wouldn't be such a prick, I wouldn't have to!" and so the fight continued between the couple, yelling back and forth while the whole group sweat dropped and pretended to eat their food. Usa couldn't help it, but she knew she had a small grin tugging at the corners of her mouth because of the feuding couple. She looked up at Gohan who was grinning too. His eyes moved from his plate to look up, and he looked into Usa's eyes. He smiled and nudged her foot with his under the table.
As soon as she had made eye contact with Gohan she adverted her eyes, pretending she had actually been looking at something behind him. She scowled at him after she felt him nudge her foot and she kicked him without hesitation.
"OOOOWWWWW!" Everyone looked at Gohan, even Bulma and Vejita had heard him over their quarreling.
Gohan looked around rapidly at everyone looking at him and sweat dropped, "Heh heh! Hit my knee on the table. Knee.. on the table."
"Spawn of Kakarotto.." Vejita grumbled and continued eating.
***
After dinner ChiChi and Bulma stepped outside to "chit chat" and catch up on gossip. Vejita was stuck with the task of trying to get Bura to go back to sleep. Goten and Trunks were in the family room playing FFVIII.
"You suck Trunks!" Goten grinned hitting buttons all over the control pad. Trunks yelled and threw the control pad behind him and it landed on Usa's lap. He stomped up the stairs and slammed the door.
"What's with him lately?" Goten said and threw his control pad down onto the floor. "He's been acting so weird lately." Usa shrugged and started the game again. She experimented with the controls and saw how the person on the screen moved. Goten got up, "I'm going to go talk with him." he said and went up the stairs.
"Wanna play?" Gohan asked and picked up the other controller.
"Sure." Usa said, not too enthusiastically. Gohan sighed and sat with Usa on the couch. He looked at her, but she shied away from him.
"Usa, I think we need to talk.. about what happened. I don't even like Videl. We used to date, but... but," Gohan stuttered. Usa looked confused.
"You.. don't even like her?" Usa asked, with her face scrunched up in shock. "What do you mean you don't even like her?! Stop leading me on Gohan! Trunks told me the truth, I know you love her. Just stop it.." Usa broke down into tears, covering her face with her hands and moving even further away from him.
"What?" Gohan asked in disbelief. "I never said that to him. Usa, listen to me, I never said that!" He gently grabbed her shoulder and made her face him. She took her hands off of her face and looked at Gohan through teary eyes. "Usa, please believe me. I don't love Videl. I can't love her, not when I know there's well, you."
"H-honto?" Usa couldn't believe what he was saying.
"I can't help feeling drawn to you Usa, it's as if I've been waiting for you, you're my destiny."
*flashback*
Little Chibi-usa sat on her mother's lap smiling up at her mother, her shining star, all that she wanted to be someday. She asked her mother, "Mommy, how do you know when you've found your true love?" and her mother replied, while smoothing down her daughter's hair.
"My dear Small Lady you will know when you've found your true love, because it will be your destiny to find him. You will be each others destinies, just waiting to find each other and be joined once more." Neo-Queen Serenity hugged her daughter gently and the little girl snuggled against her.
*end flashback*
Usa threw herself onto Gohan wrapping her arms around his neck burying her face into his shoulder, tears of happiness steaming down her face. Gohan was surprised, but held onto her. Finally being able to hold her was all he ever wanted and he wasn't about to let go. She finally drew away from him, but not out of his embrace.
"I've been waiting for you for so long," she said quietly looking deeply into his eyes.
"And I you." Gohan said as he drew her closer, she nuzzled her face against his. Gohan lifted up her chin gently and she opened her eyes to look into his. He leaned forward, closing what distance was left between them. She closed her eyes and his lips claimed hers in a soft and gentle kiss.
Usa gently broke the kiss and whispered against his lips, "Aishiteru.."
"Aishiteru Usa-chan," Gohan responded and slid his hands down her waist, pulling her closer to him and he returned her kisses and slowly deepened the kiss. "I love you..."
