Unexpected Love

Part Eight

Bulma looked up at the huge dragon. Forty minutes have passed now and Shenron hasn't said anything. The dragon looked to be in intense concentration and Bulma was growing impatient. Doesn't he know if he could make the wish or not? Shenron eyes glowed red and he looked down at Bulma and Yamcha.

'If this doesn't work, I don't know what I'm going to do. I have to get Vegeta back. He's my husband. I love him. If this works, I'm going to make Vegeta forget all about Chi-Chi. How could he have feelings for her? He's a prince. He's supposed to be a man of honor. He--'

Shenron cut off the rest of Bulma's thoughts with his voice. "It was a difficult wish but I was able to grant it. Vegito is no more. Goku and Vegeta are back in their original bodies."

"YES!" Bulma yelled jumping up and down. "It worked! It worked! It worked! Thank you, Shenron! Oh, thank you! I owe you big for this!" She started dancing around happily.

"Very well. I shall return to my slumber!" Shenron voiced boomed as he magically dispersed himself into seven dragon balls and scattered himself all over the planet.

"Wow. I didn't think he could do it," Yamcha said. "Man," he whined, "I really wanted to win that lottery."

"Who cares?!" Bulma said still jumping up and down happily. "I got my Vegeta back! Oh, he's coming home! I have to prepare for him!" Bulma jumped in the air excited and rushed to her plane.

'Now there's no way he will stay with Chi-Chi now. He has to come back to me if he doesn't want to draw suspicion to himself.'

Goku looked at his hands and felt his spiky hair in amazement. "I can't believe it. We're not fused anymore." He looked at Chi-Chi and smiled. "I'm back!" He hugged Chi-Chi. I'm my own self again!"

Goku then realized someone else was in the room. "Oh, man, this is awkward," Goku said taking noticed of the situation. He saw Vegeta was against the wall naked, looking shocked and embarrassed. Chi-Chi tightened the sheets around her naked body and moved behind Goku. She closed her eyes. It wasn't appropriate for her to be looking at a naked man that wasn't her husband and she couldn't face him after what happened.

Vegeta didn't say anything as he rose from the floor and grabbed a piece of his clothing that was on the floor. "It appears that way, doesn't it, Kakarot?" Vegeta spoke in a harsh voice. This was shocking and uncomfortable. Of all the times to de-fuse and after all that has happened.

"I guess this means you can go back to Bulma," Goku said slowly, awkwardly. He knew about Vegeta's feelings for his wife. The last thing the noble Saiyan wanted to do was talk to Vegeta about it and he was certain Vegeta felt the same way.

Vegeta just glared at Goku trying to remain cool, trying to hide his feelings. His eyes moved to see Chi-Chi, but she was hidden behind her husband and her eyes were closed. "Yes, I suppose you're right." He finished gathering the rest of his clothes and left the room.

Vegeta dressed and immediately took off for Capsule Corporation. It was Bulma he knew. She was behind this. The way she reacted this morning attested to that.

"Vegito!" Bulma cried and ran to him. She hugged him, but he didn't return the hug. "I'm happy you came." She looked at him carefully. "Why are you here so early? Have you thought about what I said? About us being together? Is that why you're here?"

Vegito sighed. This will be difficult. "Bulma, it won't happen. I can't let it happen."


"Why? Because of Goku and his feelings for his wife?" She asked. "Like you actually respect him."

"No, it wouldn't be right if we do this, Bulma."

"It wouldn't be right?! Do you think any of this is right?! My husband is living with his rival's wife?! What's so right about that?! I have to go to bed every night without you! Even though Chi-Chi isn't sleeping in the same bed as you, at least she's not far from her husband where as I am!"

"Bulma--"

"Shut up! I don't want to hear anymore! If I want something done, I'll do it myself!"

"But, Bulma, I have to talk--"

"I don't want to here it!" Bulma fumed and slammed her door on him as she left.

Bulma was so upset this morning that she must have gotten the dragon balls as quickly as she could and made the wish to Shenron. He didn't think it could work. He thought he was fused with Goku forever and he confessed his feelings to Chi-Chi, Goku's wife.

He could never face them again. He'd have to be even colder than usual but even he knew that while everyone else bought his harsh attitude, Goku and Chi-Chi would see through it. They knew of his feelings.

How was he going to react when he saw her? Bulma was furious with him this morning. But that was because she thought he wouldn't sleep with her because he was Vegito. Now that he was Vegeta once more, Bulma might not be so mad. Vegeta was going to make sure Bulma never know about his feelings for Chi-Chi and she will never know what he did with Chi-Chi as Vegito.

Goku and Chi-Chi sat in bed. Neither had said anything after Vegeta left.

"Well, I guess Bulma finally decided to use the dragon balls. That's the end of that then. I didn't think it would work since the Old Kai said that once we fused it would be permanent," Goku finally spoke.

"I don't think anything will be the same after this," Chi-Chi said. "I'm glad Bulma and her family doesn't visit often because it would be extremely uncomfortable seeing them now."

"Yeah, especially for Vegeta," Goku added. "I really don't know what to say to him. Do you think he will tell Bulma what happened?"

"No," Chi-Chi said immediately. "I think he will like to forget it and so will I. Vegeta would never admit this to Bulma and I think it's best that we don't say anything either, Goku. It's not our place to say anything."

"Yeah, you're probably right. I won't say anything," Goku realized and smiled suddenly. "Wow. The boys are going to be happy about this, especially Gohan." He embraced Chi-Chi. "We're finally together the way we want too, aren't we, Chi-Chi?"

Chi-Chi smiled back, tears of joy falling from her cheeks. "We are, aren't we?" She hugged him tighter. "I'm so happy. I guess miracles do happen."

Goku returned the hug. He wanted to do more but he felt Gohan and Goten nearing their home. "I feel Gohan and Goten approaching. We better get dressed. The last thing we need for them is to catch us like this."

Gohan and Goten flew home. Gohan had a giant fish from the river near Mount Paouz on his back. "I'm sure I felt it, Goten. I'm sure I just felt Dad's ki by himself and not Vegito."

"If our Dad isn't with Vegeta anymore, does it mean the fusion is over?" Goten asked curious.

"Yeah," Gohan answered.

"But how, Gohan? I thought it was forever. Isn't that what Dad said the Old Kai said?" Goten questioned.

"Yeah, but Bulma must have asked the dragon anyway. The dragon balls have been reenergized only recently and she must have tested it. Bulma was more determined than anyway to separate Dad and Vegeta."

Gohan and Goten landed. Gohan dropped the fish outside and entered his house. "Mom? Dad?" He called. There was no answer.

There were footsteps coming down the stairs. Goku had a cheerful smile on his face as he greeted his sons. "Hey! Guess who's back!"

"Dad!" Gohan and Goten cried and ran to hug their father.

"You're back. You're actually back!" Gohan said.

"Yeah. I'm not fused with Vegeta anymore. So, I guess we can really start being a family again," Goku said.

"What was it like being fused with Vegeta?" Goten asked.

"Well, it's something I never experienced before that's for sure," Goku laughed cheerfully.

Chi-Chi watched her sons reunite with their father the way she had always wanted them too. Seeing how happy they all were now and through all that has happened when Goku was fused with Vegeta, Chi-Chi was finally beginning to believe things might be normal after all.

Vegeta flew home and landed at Capsule Corporation. It was strange to be at Capsule Corp. and not think he will be leaving in a few hours and go to Goku and Chi-Chi's house. Still, it was nice to be back home.

Trunks ran outside to greet him. "Hey!" He yelled to his father. Trunks grabbed his father's hand and tugged on it. He knew his father never displayed hugs like Goten's Dad so he knew this was as far as he could go. "Mom told me about making the wish to the dragon to de-fuse you and Goten's Dad. It really worked!" He laughed excited. "Mom just got back. Come on. Mom's waiting for you."

Vegeta allowed Trunks to pull him into the house. Vegeta prepared himself for the confrontation. He prepared himself for Bulma to yell at him. He knew she would. She always yelled at him. They entered the living room where Bulma was. Her expression wasn't what he expected. She was smiling happily at him in a short yellow dress similar to the red dress she wore at the tournament. Once she saw him, she ran into his arms.

"Oh, Vegeta, I've missed you!" She planted kisses all over his face which startled the Saiyan Prince. "I'm so glad to have you back. Now you're back to where you belong. I love you so much."

Startled by her affection, Vegeta grabbed Bulma and pulled her off him, his hands gripped at her wrists. "Woman, calm down."

Bulma just giggled. "Same old Vegeta." 'You're back now, and I'm going to make you forget all about Chi-Chi.' "I'm just happy to have you back. I've missed you. Don't tell me you didn't miss me?"

"How could I?" Vegeta barked. "You were at Kakarot's house almost everyday."

Bulma fumed. "Can't you at least act happy to see me?!"

Vegeta folded his arms. "You know how I feel so don't talk like this."

Bulma folded her arms and glared at him. "Act all tough you want. I know you missed me. We have a lot of catching up to do," Bulma added with a wink.

Vegeta knew that was to be expected. Any normal married man who has been without his wife in four months would be excited to be making love to his wife, but Vegeta's feelings were mixed on the topic.

Throughout the rest of the day, Bulma was overly affectionate to Vegeta. She would spontaneously hug him, give him kisses when no one was around, whispering what she wanted to do with him that night. Vegeta understood her actions. She had missed him and a part of him missed her too, but it seemed too much. It was like she was overly displaying affection to hide or forget something.

Bulma stood in the bathroom doorway wearing a short slinky gown that left nothing to the imagination. Vegeta sat on the bed with the covers coming to his stomach. A normal man would be looking forward to this, but this was the last thing he wanted to do now, especially with what happened with him and Chi-Chi when he was Vegito. He loved Bulma and was still attracted to her, but making love to her didn't feel to be the best thing to do right now. He wanted to be alone to get his feelings intact. To be suddenly separated from a woman he was falling in love with, and joined back with his wife, whom he cared for deeply would confuse anyone, including a Saiyan Prince who supposedly had no emotion.

Bulma crawled on the bed like a cat, smiling seductively at him. She started by planting kisses on his cheek then neck, massaging the muscles on his chest and moving her hands lower to between his legs. Vegeta sucked in a breath. He knew his body was responding to her ministrations but he didn't want to be with her. He didn't want to be with anyone now. He wanted to get his feelings straight as hard as that would be considering how he felt for Chi-Chi and Bulma now. Still, he knew he had better act on Bulma's temptations before she got suspicious.

He pulled Bulma off him and kissed him hard. Bulma eagerly welcomed the kiss. They made love that night but when it was over, Vegeta realized when it wasn't the same. Every time he heard Bulma gasped, moaned or whimpered he would think about Chi-Chi and the way she sounded and felt in his arms when he made love to her as Vegito.

The next morning, Vegeta slipped out of bed from Bulma and went to do what he normally did--train. He trained to forget about Chi-Chi and the feelings he had for her, he trained to forget all that had happened--the way she looked sometimes, her smile, how easily she made an army food for three Saiyans without complaining, the way her face flushed she was making love to him, the way she sounded, the way she felt in his arms. Just thinking about the night and morning they made love was making him hard with arousal.

The door opened and he saw it was Bulma. She was wearing one of her short robes. From her disheveled hair, he could guess Bulma just awaken. Vegeta turned the gravity machine off so Bulma could enter. Bulma locked the door and walked to him seductively. She approached him and wrapped her arms around his neck.

"I've missed you, Vegeta. When I didn't find you in bed with me, I thought yesterday was a dream and you were still at Goku and Chi-Chi's house. "Must you train now? I thought we could spend the morning together."

Bulma pressed her body against her husband's and felt his arousal. She gave him a surprised smile. "Hmm, so you've been thinking about me in here? I knew you missed me." She removed her robe to show that she wasn't wearing anything. "I've missed you a lot, too. Those four months were miserable and it's time we make up for it, don't you?" She laughed. "Of course you do. Look how ready you are." She threw her arms around him and kissed him again.

****

Six weeks have passed since Goku and Vegeta were no longer fused and it has been nothing but bliss for the Son family, especially for Goku and Chi-Chi. Through it all, the fusion made their relationship and love stronger than ever. It proved how much they loved each other and that they were willing to be together no matter.

No. No. No. This isn't what she wanted. Chi-Chi was horrified at the results of the device she was holding. After nothing but happiness for the past six weeks, why does this have to happen to mess things up. 'Why now?' She thought. 'Why couldn't it be next month? Oh, Kami, what am I going to do?'

Chi-Chi collapsed to the floor, having lost control of her legs at what she read. She started hyperventilating, panicking at what was to come. There was nothing else to do except call her husband and tell him what was going on.

"Goku!" Chi-Chi called.

Goku was in the bedroom getting dressed when he heard Chi-Chi call for him. He entered the bathroom. He saw Chi-Chi on the floor shaking, hyperventilating. Goku pulled Chi-Chi off the floor. "What's up, Chi-Chi? What's the matter?"

"Goku…" Chi-Chi said her lips quivering, tears started to fall from her eyes. She wasn't sure how to tell Goku this. How do you tell your husband this shocking piece of news?

Goku looked at Chi-Chi concerned. She was scared of something and that was scaring him. Whatever it was, it was bad. "What's wrong? Tell me."

"Goku…I'm pregnant."

It took a moment before the news registered in Goku's brain. His face went from concern to ecstatic in a matter. He let out a whoop, picked Chi-Chi up and swung her around. "Whoo-hoo! You're pregnant! That's great, Chi-Chi!" He set Chi-Chi down and embraced her. "Oh, wow. This is great news, Chi-Chi. You had me scared for a second there, Chi-Chi. Why were you so worried to tell me you were pregnant? This is great news! We're going to be a Mom and Dad again!"

"Goku…" Chi-Chi tried to explain. "This baby is not only yours and mine, but it's Vegeta's as well."

To Be Continued

AN: Oh, come on! You knew I had to do it!

Shygurl: Of course I had to separate them. This is a drama after all. Hee. Hee. Oh, yeah, Bulma's going to do more after this stunt.

Obi chan: Oh, thanks! Now you have to wonder what Goku and Chi-Chi gonna do now that she's pregnant. Hee. Hee.

ButterflyV: Thank you!

The hater: Um, hmm. I had to end it there because it was to do it. It's best to leave people hanging, and then they have to come back and read more. I know it's cruel, but it's also fun.

Mystic-Gogeta: Oh, don't cry. Cry for a later chapter. Hee. Hee. I'm teasing. Thanks for the review.

Psycho Ann: All good things must come to an end right? Hmm, well some people don't see Vegito/Chi-Chi as a good thing. No, I'm not ending it now. I still have a few chapters to go.

Xmadgirlx: Because it's fun to end it on evil cliffies and this was the worst one yet. Hee. Hee.

Dark Goddess: A lemon would've worked for the last chapter but this story is rated PG-13, so I couldn't do it.

Ssjchika: ::hides behind Goku:: Ha! Try hitting me with your boxing gloves now! Goku's going to protect me! Thanks for the review. I guess you really want to pound me for this cliffhanger huh?

Goten's Guardian Angel: Hmm, seems I made a mistake. There wasn't much Gohan and Goten here. I've got other stories out that I'm starting to get confused. I must have been thinking about "His Special Gift." Kill Bulma now before she causes more trouble in the story. Hee. Hee. I went to that site you told me G/CC song about but the page couldn't be found.

Chi-Chi: Oh, come on. You know you like cliffhangers. It's fun.

Leigh: No, everyone has planned to not tell Bulma about Vegito and Chi-Chi sleeping together. They think it's best. Vegeta still has feelings for Chi-Chi but obvious he can't act on it because of Goku and well Chi-Chi doesn't feel that way for him. No, Goku won't be going training. He's going to stay home in this fic.

Mistress of Darkness: He goes back to Bulma, but his feelings are mixed on the situation. Poor guy. I dare to leave it on a cliffhanger because I can. Hee. Hee. Okay, I'm gonna go hide now so I don't get beat up.

Chrissy: Thanks. BTW, cliffies are good. It keeps the suspense in.

Sammi: Wow! What a long review. Shame on you for torturing poor Piccolo.

Princess Frieza: Yes, Bulma has Vegeta back. There's a little bit of their reunion here and it's probably the most affectionate they will be in this story, so just skip over it and you shall be fine.

Lord Vaughan: Thanks. The reason Bulma didn't ask Shenron to separate Goku and Vegeta in Part One was because the dragon balls were stones. Remember when Goku told Shenron they would call him later to use the second wish since Bulma used the first one to revive everyone that died at the tournament because of Vegeta? Dende told Goku that the dragon balls will be reenergized in four months instead of a year because the second wish wasn't used. From what I can tell, I think the time between that and the Fusion of Vegito had to have been a week or two at the most so when Vegito defeated Majin Buu, the dragon balls weren't ready. Hope that answers your question.

Saiyanjin-Princess: No, Vegeta won't tell Bulma that he slept with Chi-Chi. I had to separate them. Can't make things too happy for long in this story. I told you it was going to be weird.

Xonnie: Thanks. I appreciate that.

Three Fates: LOL! It seems you are the only one besides me that wanted Bulma to separate Goku and Vegeta. The confrontation won't be that big because Vegeta doesn't know that Bulma is aware of his attraction to Chi-Chi. Bulma also doesn't know that he slept with Chi-Chi either and Bulma isn't going to tell Vegeta that she knows he likes Chi-Chi. Sounds like a soap doesn't it? I guess that means I'm a good writer to get you to like Goku. Hee. Hee.

GD: I wonder what you're going to say about this one. Hee. Hee.

CB: No. I still have a few more surprises and shocks to pull off before I end this story. Goku wasn't trying to put his arm around Chi-Chi. He was putting a hand over his eyes to protect them from the sun as he looked at the bird family in the three. I think they will finish off Dragon ball this fall. I thought they would show DBGT this fall too, but I think I read somewhere they won't. They have them on DVD now but I haven't got it.

Midnight Goddess: Yes, Vegeta will have to go back to Bulma now. Hee. Hee. Chi-Chi and Vegeta will talk about his confession but not now. In a couple of chapters, they will. They have to talk anyway now that Chi-Chi is pregnant with his baby. Hee. Hee.

Xshiny: Vegeta is going to stay committed to Bulma. Bulma's temper will be cooling for a while since she doesn't want to draw him away. Gotenks fusion? I hadn't thought about that, but that won't happen. This story is complicated as it is.

Lady Athena: So not to give away what happens at the end, I refuse to talk anymore about it. I want everyone to be excited about the ending. Bulma's gonna get her way a little bit in this story. You saw most of it in this chapter.

Oninu: You might not feel sorry for Bulma for long in a future chapter.

Dannichan667: Just for a little bit. Vegeta is gonna try to commit to Bulma and forget Chi-Chi since he is married to Bulma. Of course you know Vegeta and Chi-Chi have to talk now that she is pregnant.

Chuquita: I need to use that favorite's thing, but I've just been so busy, I've only got time to read reviews and post stories. Thanks for the review!
