Well it's nothing till I give it to you
I can make the runner stumble
I can make the final block
I can make every tackle at the sound of the whistle
I can make all the stadiums rock
I can make tonight forever
*~*~*
I stirred. Reaching beside me. Frowned. Reached on the other side and stiffened as my fingertips traced a sheet…A sheet? Woke abrupt and peered around in the clean room. Um…
"Gokuu?" I piped small. Off course no answer. Dope. So I got up and peered through the window. Oh yeah…Capsule Corp…we were send…back here?
"AH that BANSHEE. I'll claw her eyes out!" I hissed. "Now I can…" Bravely walking to the door before sagging in. Bad idea… She could fight…I couldn't…Was hungry though…so I reached for the knob anyway and walked onto a long…round…hallway. Okay…stairs. Walked down and peered around. As I wandered through the huge rooms I stumbled into the kitchen and froze. Four sets of eyes rested on me. I flushed.
"Sorry…" And zoomed back out. AHHH I saw Bulma! AHH I saw Trunks…And Bura…and HIM again. Mister insult.
"Onna." Someone grabbed my arm I tried to ignore him. Hard to ignore him though. Hand like a vice.
"Lemme go…" I muttered.
"You need food."
"What do you know."
"Enough." I sagged. Crap.
"Gokuu should have shut his mouth."
"On the contrary, I like to know about persons under my protection. Or do you think people will welcome you in their hearts?" I peered sideward at him. Ass was bigger.
"Good morning Rixt-san, welcome in our house. Your welcome to stay as long as you wish." Bulma. I peered at her as Vegeta loosened his grip. Get had a hand on my shoulder still. "I warned Chichi this might happen…" Bulma continued as I turned crimson. Well…well…how to reply huh?
"So…um…you kinda agree on my side?" I stammered confused.
"I agree with the fact Gokuu found another. Chichi has been terrorizing him since they met." Okay…my feet turned rubber again. DAMNIT.
"I hate this…I hate this…" Vegeta had to support ME. Me, since when was I a fainting bitch?
"Serves you right, your not eating. Your supporting two now onna." He grumbled soft for Bulma to miss, loud enough for me to hear.
"Priceless, Vegeta pampering me. Okay. I will eat." He let me go as Bulma walked with me into the kitchen again where Bura sung a song about…babies… groaning and dumped my head on the table. This wasn't my day…Weeehhhh.
"Aw come on. Just teasing…" Bura stated.
"I'm not feeling funny today." I replied muffled.
"Shame on you Bura, you know she's in a difficult situation." Bulma scolded as Trunks peered at me funny.
"So you're her?"
"YEAH I'm ME." I snapped. Poor guy couldn't help it either but I was close to a nervous breakdown. "Where the hell is Gokuu anyway."
"Well he's not far." Vegeta mused as he dumped a plate with sandwiches before me. "So I assume he didn't go to the wench." I sat up eager.
"Close?"
"Too far for you to run." Vegeta smirked at me nastily.
"How do you know? Maybe I can run fast…" I sneered back.
"Maybe. But your with child, and exhausted."
"No I'm not…not really…"
"Tell that to someone gullible enough to believe. Onna? You take her shopping?" Bulma nodded.
"Yes I said I would. Anyway, I must admit I never thought he and Chichi would last. I was so amazed when he came over to Roshi's with Gohan. And for the last years it only got worse. Really her own fault. She still sees him like the boy she met. I bet you see him for the real man he is?" Bulma's curious blue eyes pinned on me as I flushed again.
"Yeah…well…I knew he was acting…"
"See?" Bulma propped her hands on her hips. "He found a better woman. So your younger…what was it?"
"21…" Trunks and Bura reeled back.
"That YOUNG?" Both stammered. Bulma thankfully ignored it.
"What's in a number. Vegeta said we were soul partners…so must you two…that's so cute!" Vegeta humped. I threw him a curious glance. Soul partners? He nodded.
"Don't ask…"
"I will…later." I promised. "I want to know about Saiya-jin. He's one…I'll get one…"
"Onna, let me tell you this. To me you are his true mate, onna, wife, what ever. He marked you out of his free will and you marked him back. Ceiled. That she-demon tricked him. Might have worked out, but they never marked the other. So it's a forfeit." I suddenly stiffened. Glancing frantic around…where… Bulma eyed me bemused as I zoomed to a door, opened it and threw myself in Gokuu's arms. He had been about to open it…
"Told you…soul mates…we do so also." Bulma nodded at Vegeta's words as Bura and Trunks peered with open mouths as they saw Gokuu give me the most passionate kiss they saw.
"When do they breath…" Bura stammered. I barely heard her as I gasped and cuddled content against him.
"Morning…" I stated humming, totally head over heels again. Was I angry at him? Why? Chichi could walk in now and I'd give her the finger… Threw my arms around his neck and refused to budge. He was staying put.
"Rixt…could you…" He muttered.
"No. I'm comfy."
"So am I, but we can't stay attached like this all day…" He grinning replied.
"We could try…"
"No, leach."
"Hunk."
"Kirei…"
"Peace of royal you.." Bulma whispered to Vegeta.
"Onna…" Vegeta replied snickering. Possessively pulling her against him. As one Trunks and Bura rose…okay… and fled out.
"Upstairs. 20 minutes." Vegeta stated. Bulma grinned.
"No. Upstairs now." Vegeta picked her up and walked out of another set of doors. Stunned Gokuu glanced from me around.
"Where did they all go?" Tiptoe I grabbed one tuft of spiky hair. Pulling him down.
"Who cares?"
"But I needed to ask…Hmm…" Smirking I kissed him. A door opened and in walked…I yelped and pushed Gokuu away.
"One of your kids…" I whispered.
"Hi tousan, Rixt-san. I'm Goten!" The young male stated. I nearly fainted.
"You know my name?" Then rammed Gokuu's chest and shook my hand frowning. That smart…
"Relax! I'm on your side! Or Tousan's…I just want to see him happy, and you obviously make him happy." I beamed. One out of 3…not bad…now only Gohan and Chichi. Then my face fell...right…bet that would be hardest. But I was being rude here. Reluctantly I let Gokuu go and bowed politely before Goten.
"My name is Rixt, I'm happy to meet you." Attentively he replied the greeting bow.
"Likewise. He tousan? She looks like a double for Jennifer Love Hewitt!" We blinked. Who? Then I peered down and flushed…still in my nightshirt!
"Tousan? I have a headache…" Goten moaned. "Trunks!!" We cringed. What a howl. Goten as well underestimating the volume. Grinning I peered at him. Trunks walked in with a box of painkillers. Peered at me and smirked as he saw Gokuu lounging behind me.
"Ah, you know? Now or before?"
"Before…last night. Crashed at my place."
"Right…here."
"Thanks…Water…" He walked to the sink where I coyly handed him a glass of water. "Thanks…" Dunked 4 in his mouth. I dared to take two back as he slammed the water after the pills. I peered at the soggy pills in my hand. Yuck…Goten mucus…Trunks cracked up behind us, so I opened his pocket and dumped them there. Patting it.
"There yah go. Gokuu?" I skipped back and hugged him.
"Hmm…good thing you retrieved them…your kinda quick…GOTEEN YOU ASS. I told you millions of times these aren't NORMAL painkillers. Their Saiya-jin pain killers! Use two. Tousan only uses 1…says it clouds his mind too much if he uses 2." Meanwhile Gokuu tried to peel me off again.
"You need to go shopping…" He stated hopeful. Wrong.
"Bulma is occupied." I chided.
"I see…so what…where are we going?" I pulled him down the hall and peered around…where was that staircase…
"Second door on your left…Kami I can't believe this…orgy!!!"
"TRUNKSSS SHUT YOUR LID!" I howled back in a perfectly good mood. "And thanks."
"Yeah, yeah…see if I care. WORK…so much work…"
After relocating my room I pushed him smirking in. Out of Vegeta's bedroom Bulma peeped. Aw? Then was pulled back in by two strong hands.
"Not yet onna…"
"The things that happen under our roof…Vegeta! Why you…"
***
I was pushed on the bed by her. Boy did she miss me! Barely slept… She tossed her shirt out and how could I refuse her now. Could I ever?
2 hours later I peered smug at Vegeta. We both still flustered. Reeking of sex. As were our girls. Who currently perched their heads on their arms exhausted.
"Vegeta…your ruthless…" Bulma stammered muffled.
"Gokuu, told you not that stance…ow…"
"Kakarotto, gravity room." Vegeta rose and waved me after him. I followed after pecking a kiss in her neck and strolled content after him. Life was good…
***
An arm snaked around Bulma who groaned.
"You'll manage Mum…" Trunks snickered.
"Bad kid…" Trunks snickered more.
"Need painkillers…mum? But only one, strong stuff." I heard Goten beside me.
"Very…very bad…boy…" I managed. "Just like your dad…" Goten beamed. Nodding to Trunks. Which I couldn't see. They switched as Trunks hugged my back.
"Poor you…" He purred. Alarmed I sat up and peered at him.
"Your creepy…shoo…No purring…heard too much purring…" And crashed down again.
"Strong hands…poor shoulders…ow…" Bulma peered up and spied Goten. "Nice massage…if you didn't squeeze so hard." He adjusted smiling sorry. She sunk back. "Better…"
"OI, that's MY Okaasan! Get your own!" Trunks spat playfully.
"Which one?" Trunks pointed down as Bulma started laughing. I had fallen asleep and yelped when Goten offered the massage to me as well.
"Your jumpy?" He asked sweetly.
"Kinda…bad past."
"Bomber. Are you opposite of Tousan? They say they attract?" I exhaled. What kind of question was that?
"No idea. Your older then me. Tell me?" he smiled like Gokuu could. Aw…so alike…but…no.
"I still have no clothes." I complained. "But I can't move…"
"You get some of mine…don't you dare stop Trunks." Bulma muttered.
***
I blocked Vegeta's attacks with ease. I felt really good! Good about myself, my body, my soul. Just felt good!
"That's what I hate about soul mates…once you find yours, your focus is too sharp…My advantage lost…damn you Kakarotto!" We broke apart as Vegeta started smirking.
"Good sex ne?"
"You bet…" I grinned. "And you?"
"You changed. For the better. I always did hate that fool mask." Vegeta snorted. I stopped stunned.
"You knew?"
"Off course! I knew your late brother! And Bardock wasn't a fool, nor was Raditsu. Add those things and you get a standard Saiya-jin. Not the runt you posed to be. Got me frustrated. Acting all that for Chikyuu…"
"Glad your approving. Rixt will be my mate." Did feel better to call her that. 'mate'.
"Fool. You already marked her. Use your new found brains." We cracked up then entered a new spar.
"You never did answer my first question…" I mused.
"Like?"
"The sex?"
"Hn…nosy…but for your info. As well as yours."
"Ah…" No more words were needed then. It had been very intense and good for both of us. And because of it we were very focused. Both of us.
***
"Will he like it?" Worried I peered at my reflection as Bulma adjusted the straps.
"Sweetie, he'll faint."
"Well can't have that…" I muttered not getting the hint. Bulma rolled her eyes. "He might hit his head. And he's heavy…"
"Look, you look smashing. He'd have to be blind not to like you." I nodded.
"Kay…so…this one and the black?"
"Yup. You could do something new and use red…I for a fact know Vegeta's crazy about red. Something with blood…Ah look, a new design." She pulled me to a standard.
"Oi…Vegeta will freak…what do you think?" I peered at a long dress, Chinese with 'very' high cut snit. I frowned, walking around it and nodded.
"He'd freak with every man passing…" Bulma smirked nasty.
"Good…that will keep him on his toes. Ah idea. What if I take the red one, and you this?" She pointed at a gold one. "We'd make a nice couple…lets CHANGE!" she hauled me to the dressing rooms.
"Now?" I piped.
"Now."
10 minutes later we stood outside. I insecure pulling on the girdle. Never wore these things before. Felt weird. Bulma swatted my hand off.
"Your fine."
"Feels quaint…"
"Look at the guys! I never saw Gokuu jealous before. Lets tease…"
"Not to forget Vegeta?" I sung teasing.
"Oh he freaks so often. Me in Bikini sunbathing rattles him already. And that's in the backyard."
"Now that's plain obsessive…" Bulma tusked at my words.
"My dear, you have been marked. The man will obsess about you till he dies. Luckily, we don't have that side affect. And you said you were pregnant?"
"Think so…not sure."
"We'll test. If you are. He'll go mad. I call it Monkey loons. Terribly possessive. Like you have a bodyguard. That was Vegeta with Bura by the way. Couldn't go shopping alone. He abandoned his precious room just to take me shopping." I blinked amazed.
"Wow…" Then sighed. "Don't think it works for me though."
"Hi Vegeta!" Bulma was peering up and waved. Why did she stick her leg out so prone? Blank I peered up and grinned.
"Hi Vegeta-san."
"Hi…ONNA GET CLOTHES ON!"
"Nope, I am already. Look at Rixt! She looks smashing!" Vegeta landed.
"Hn…your half naked!" Vegeta glared at Bulma as I turned at a whistling sound. A group of teens walked past. Huh? They winked at me. I giggled. This was new…I waved back. Nice guys… turned and nearly fell back. What a wall…an arm snaked around me.
"What the…oh Gokuu!" I burst out laughing as Bulma chiding winked.
"Look at me Son-kun!" Bulma chided. Gokuu peered briefly at her.
"Nice…" Vegeta glared up peeved. Bulma burst out laughing. That red glow! Gokuu had it!!! He was jealous! So funny!
"You should change." Gokuu informed me. Innocently I peered up. tears welled up. damned hormones.
"You hate it?" Tears shimmered in my eyes as he paled. "YOU DOOOO." Bawling I dropped my shopping bags and ran to a bench and sniffed and sobbed. My feet stiff to the other. Hands covering my face. Weeehhhh he hated it…
***
"Nice Kakarotto…no need for a test onna. She is. And by the looks, a few weeks…2 months?" Vegeta mused as I slumped my shoulders. Darn.
"I only said she should change…what the…WHAT THE HELL?" I watched a boy from a group walking to her and seemingly to comfort her…touching HER…I felt blood rushing to my face. Why I never! Sly Vegeta and Bulma peered at me. I was working up a nice fit though.
***
"What's wrong?" I glanced with watery eyes at that boy who waved at me before.
"He didn't like it…" I sniffed.
"Who didn't?"
"HE DIDD." I bawled. Pointing at Gokuu.
***
"Now she did it…" I heard Vegeta faintly. Blood ringing in my ears. That…trespassing…son…of a…
***
"He didn't like it and I bought it for him and he told me to CHANGE." I sniffed loudly as I felt his hand on my shoulder. Um…didn't like that…other people touching me…
"Don't touch me…" I sniffed unhappy. His grip fastened. "You deaf?" I bawled louder. He didn't let go.
"Gokuu he's touching me…" And slumped over my knees sobbing. Clutching them
***
Bulma paled. Crap…what a scene…Vegeta coyly leaned against the wall hearing the Onna's wail for assistance.
"You know. Pregnant Onna's are truly an enigma. But obsessive protective mates are destructive…"
"Takes one to know one.." Bulma muttered as I stalked stiff to the bench. Rixt tried to shrug him off and bawled louder when it didn't help.
"Lets see…how much of his friendly control remains…" Vegeta mused in the back.
"She said don't touch her are you deaf!" I hissed. The boy peered up pale.
"She was crying man…"
"And I'm her mate, and I did like the dress…"
***
I glanced blurry up. wiping my eyes, but they filled up again. So I reached up. For him to take a hold on me. He did and he rammed the teen to his group.
In the back I saw Vegeta winch. Confused I glanced to the left and sniffed.
"You hit him too hard…" I squeaked.
"You said not to touch, he did. Fixed." Gokuu stated gruff. I peered up confused. Was that Vegeta talking? Instead of allowing me time to ask, he picked me up in his arms and walked back to where I dropped the bags, and where Bulma and Vegeta waited.
***
"You wished to shop. We shop." I stated gruff still. Trying to calm the rage inside. Why was I so angry? He didn't really do anything…we escorted the girls for about one more hour, until Rixt informed she didn't like shopping really. So we returned to the CC grounds still with Bulma's and her new stuff. After seeing to it she was inside I and Vegeta strolled in the garden.
"Kakarotto, I think…" I waved him to shut up. I needed to say something first.
"If she goes into town again, will you go with her? I don't want anyone touching her." He started laughing.
"With me? You know your asking me?" Vegeta stammered amazed. Was it such a stupid question damnit!? Thoroughly pissed I glared at him, so he stopped laughing. "Damn you mean it?"
"YES. Just say yes or no. I'll get Goten on her case otherwise. But I trust you better. Because your already bonded to Bulma." I spat.
"Game set and match. Fine. Good thing she doesn't like shopping. I don't either. I must explain about your current state of mind." We sat down in the rose garden.
"Well?" I muttered irritable.
"Impatient…damn you can see your just newly bonded. Calm down. No one is after your mate here."
"She's not worthy enough?" I unreasonably stubborn glared a death glare.
"No, but I do think they know she belongs to you. They will not touch her."
"Good." I humped. Shish, I sounded like him?! Vegeta cracked up.
"I should have a tape recorder here. Your sounding more and more Saiya-jin. Very refreshing. Now to proceed." He explained about why I felt the way I did. In pre-Saiya-jin history mates sometimes were robbed of unborn children. That's why I was so prone on keeping males away. And I was recently 'hooked' she was my personal obsession. Only time would temper that feeling a bit.
"So for now I'm an unreasonable ass…"
"Yes. And your obsessed about rejoining that wench. That makes 3 obsessions, to two females."
"Hell no." Did I just say that? Maybe Chi and I could work it out and go away like friends…this didn't sound much like it…
"Your choice, your mess. You still got one Chibi to inform, and that wench. I'll keep an eye on your onna. You do what you must. Now leave. You've been stalling as it is."
"But I need to see Rixt…"
"NO, your obsession speaking. She's fine and with my onna. Probably yapping about Chibi's. Now go." I nodded sullen. I was such a prick now…I couldn't bare myself right now. Let alone that another could. "And Kakarotto…I don't know if it helps but when my onna carried the second…I was just as protective…or obsessed…instinct…"
"Hai…thanks…" I concentrated on the place I least of all wanted to be and teleported.
*~*~*
Or I can make it disappear by the dawn
I can make every promise that has ever been made
I can make all your demons be gone
But I'm never gonna make it without you
Do you really want to see me crawl
And I'm never gonna make it like you do
Making love out of nothing at all
*~*~*
