"talking" ~thoughts~
Chapter 5: Party
Vegeta walked out of the gravity room to shower and change for the party. He didn't know why he was bothering to go to the party; he never went when the onna had parties. Unless she threatened to break his gravity room. Some how this party was different. He wanted to be there for Pan.
Bra walked in her father's room as he was putting on a white t-shirt with his black jeans. "Daddy I was surprised when I went to the gravity room and you weren't there."
"I was getting ready for the party." Vegeta replied. Bra's jaw dropped.
"But, Daddy you've never willingly gone to a party before."
"Well, I know she'll want me there." Vegeta shrugged as he walked out of the room.
Bra stood there stunned. "Since when does he care what someone else want?"
_
All the Z fighters and their families were gathering at Capsule Corp. waiting for Pan and her friends. Pan walked in at five after seven. She was immediately surrounded by people hugging her.
Bra stepped in front of Pan shaking her finger in Pan's face. Pan hardly noticed Bra; she was looking over Bra's shoulder at Vegeta leaning against the wall. He looked very pissed. Pan saw Vegeta looking past her at Garrick. ~Oh no, he knows~ Pan thought. ~But how?~
Pan finally realized Bra was yelling at her. "-five minutes ago. Why are you late?"
"Sorry Bra," she turned and took Garrick from Sovay's arms. "Garrick decided he'd dirty his diaper when it was time to go out the door."
Goten took Garrick from Pan and started making goofy faces at the baby. Trunks who had been standing over Goten's shoulder watching Garrick laugh. Trunks looked up at Sovay. "Is this your little brother?"
Sovay smiled sadly shaking her head. "No he's not."
"Oh he must be yours then."
Sovay shook her head again.
"Stupid brat." Trunks looked at his father confused. Everyone else looked at Vegeta wondering what he knew that they didn't.
"Vegeta!" Pan warned Vegeta in a stern voice.
"That brat couldn't possible totally human. Feel its ki."
"Well whose is he then Daddy?" Bra asked. No one suspected the obvious.
"He's mine." Pan replied taking her son from Goten.
"But Panny. How, I mean when?" Her father's eyes were full of disappointment.
Pan's heart broke at her fathers look. She looked to Vegeta for support but he just turned his back on her and walked outside. Pan sighed and turned back to her father. "Well Dad, I got pregnant shortly after I was last here so Garrick is about three and a half months old."
Gohan struggled with emotions he never felt towards his daughter. He was disappointed she was to young to be having children. Yet he always saw how great his father was with Pan and looked forward to his own grandchildren. "Well, let me see my grandson then." Pan smiled weakly and handed her father Garrick.
Pan watched as her son passed around her friends and family. All agreed that Garrick was absolutely adorable and looks just like his mother. Pan smiled at her grandmother Chi-chi holding Garrick. She was thrilled to finally have a great grandchild.
Pan took her sleeping child from her grandmother's arms. Garrick nuzzled into Pan's breast as she settled him into her arms. Pan wondered how angry Vegeta was at her. She knew she should have told him about Garrick sooner but was afraid he would think less of her. Pan loved the way Vegeta respected her. Everyone else still thought of her as a child. As she walked through the kitchen Pan decided she put off talking to Vegeta long enough. As Pan walked into the gravity room the gravity simulator shutdown. Vegeta turned to face Pan and her sleeping son.
"What brat?" Vegeta growled
"Vegeta can we talk, please?"
Vegeta simply crossed his arms over his chest. The look he gave her showed he was extremely annoyed she interrupted his training. It was a look he had never given her before and she nearly burst in tears when she saw it.
"I know I should have told you about Garrick sooner. I was scared please understand."
"What's to understand brat? So you got knocked up."
"A lone tear slide down Pan's cheek due to the harshness of his words. "Just because I had a child you thinks so little of me now."
"No I believe you think so little of me. You tell people I'm your friend but then you can't trust me enough to tell me about your child."
"Since when dose the high and mighty prince have friends? You only care about yourself and training!"
"If I only cared about myself and training why would I have given up time and gone to that damn club? Why would I have you asked you to dance?"
Garrick was woken up by the yelling didn't cry. He turned his little head. Small blue eyes met cold dark ones. Vegeta's softened a bit as he thought. ~He looks just like her. The young Saiyan I have been unable to keep myself from growing fond of.~ Garrick's mouth split in a drolly grin that Vegeta couldn't help but give a small smirk at how much it reminded him of Kakkorott. The baby began to wiggle his chubby little arms in Vegeta's direction.
"What dose the brat want?" Vegeta asked, the usual impassive look returning to his face.
"He wants you to hold him Pan said pushing her son into Vegeta's hands. Vegeta held Garrick at arms length with a typical Vegeta scowl. Garrick continued to wiggle his arms towards Vegeta's face and giggle.
"What am I supposed to do with this?" Vegeta growled.
"You held Bra when she was a baby. Hold Garrick the same way."
"It was ok to hold Bra because she was my princess not a third class, barely Saiyan brat!" Vegeta handed Garrick back to Pan and began doing on fingered pushups. "Are we finished?"
"No Vegeta we're not." Pan laid Garrick on the floor on his stomach. Turning back to Vegeta she put her hands on her hips. "We haven't even solved anything. All you have accomplished to do is insult me and my son."
"Brat, you say I only care about myself so why should I care about you or your brat?" Vegeta said arrogantly jumping to his feet and crossing his arms over his chest.
"Please Vegeta, your friendship means a lot to me and you're the only living full blooded Saiyan that can teach my son about his heritage. He may only be 1/8 Saiyan but you must admit he looks more Saiyan than Trunks and Bra."
Vegeta looked down at the small child trying to crawl. Garrick had spiky black hair like his grandfather and a very Saiyan like determined smirk. It was then that Vegeta noticed a little brown fury appendage twitching side to side.
Vegeta blinked a few times and turned to Pan. "You left his tail!"
"Well I always wished I had mine. My parents should have waited and allowed me to choose to cut my tail off." Pan shrugged, "I'll leave it till he's old enough to decide if he wants to cut off."
"Where's the brat's father?"
Pan sighed, "Neo doesn't know about Garrick. I left him when I found out I was pregnant. I could never raise a child with a man like him."
Vegeta raised a questioning eyebrow.
"He always came home drunk. I didn't want a child back then but now I know Garrick is the best thing that ever happened to me." Pan flopped on the floor and pulled her son in her arms. "When Neo came home drunk he would beat me and force me to sleep with him. Neo new I wasn't ready to have sex. I wanted to wait till I found my mate. I wanted it to be the person I would spend the rest of my life with. That didn't matter to him. No one ever kept him from what he wanted. When I realized I was pregnant Garrick is what gave me the strength to leave him. I wasn't going to allow Neo to strike my child like he did me."
Vegeta sat beside Pan and looked in her eyes. "Your Saiyan how could you allow a human to do that to you? I know you're stronger than that Pan."
Pan was amazed he had called her by name. "I had no place to go. I couldn't afford school and my own place and I wouldn't go to my parents for money. So after my pregnancy test came out positive I quit school and one night when Neo was out drinking I left. Sovay offered me a place to stay. When she found out how abusive Neo was she was furious. Her family helped me find a new job where Neo wouldn't be able to find me and her mother helped me through my pregnancy. Garrick's my little miracle nothings more important to me."
Vegeta just nodded as he stood. He walked over to the controls and pushed a few buttons. "How about we see how much that brat can handle."
Pan nodded and laid Garrick back on the floor after placing a kiss on his chubby little cheek. ~Leave it to Vegeta to want to know how strong a baby is. ~ She thought.
Vegeta pressed the enter button and turned to watch Garrick. A robotic voice could be heard.
*Two-times Earths normal gravity.
*Three-times Earths normal gravity.
Garrick didn't even seem to notice the change in gravity.
*Four-times Earths normal gravity.
*Five-times Earths normal gravity.
Vegeta and Pan began to feel energy from Garrick as he fought against the weight pushing on his little body.
*Six-times Earths normal gravity.
Garrick began to grunt and clench his tiny fists.
*Seven-times Earths normal gravity.
Pan stepped next to her son flaring her ki protectively around him. "Enough Vegeta he's only three and a half months old.
Vegeta nodded and hit a button on the controls.
*Gravity simulation terminated.
A/N: So did you think Garrick was her son? I didn't even plan on Pan having a kid I just got the idea from nowhere one day. Let me know what you think please.
