AN: If you're a huge Bulma fan, for the love of Kami, leave now and don't read this story again. You won't like this.

Unexpected Love

Part Fourteen

"Like this, Momma?" Goten asked as he hung the fabric of baby animals on the wall.

Chi-Chi looked up at Goten in the air. He was helping her with decorating the baby room. Goku had brought the crib, baby chest and a couple boxes of toys out of storage. After helping Chi-Chi and Goten put the crib back together and cleaning off the dust, Goku was back in the storage room now looking for the boxes of baby clothes.

"Yes, like that." She told him and sat down on the floor carefully and opened one of the toy boxes. "Oh, I remembered this."

"Remember what?" Goten asked he landed and sat beside his mother. "What's that?"

"It's a baby mobile," Chi-Chi said and turned it on. A soft melody began to play. "You used to listen to it when you were a baby."

Goten dug in the box. He pulled out a stuffed teddy bear. "I remember teddy!" Goten said.

Chi-Chi laughed. "Yeah. You used to go everywhere with your teddy bear. You almost went in the washer after it when I threw it in there to clean it. You won't mind that your new brother will be sleeping with it, do you?"

Goten shook his head cheerfully. "No, he can have it."

Goku came in with two boxes under one arm and his other hand pushing the stroller in. "I've got the boxes. Goten, come get one of these."

Goten took the stroller from his Dad and Goku put boxes on the floor beside Chi-Chi. "I got the clothes," Goku said and opened the box. "These are the ones Goten wore, right?"

"Yeah, some of Gohan's clothes are in there. They are a little old fashion, but the fabric is good and tough--perfect for a half Saiyan baby."

Goku pulled out a blue shortall set with matching baby booties. "I don't remember Gohan wearing this."

"Oh, Bulma bought that for me with Goten. She bought and gave me some of Trunks clothes as a baby, too. She said since it's been so long since I had a little boy, my clothes were old fashioned," Chi-Chi explained.

Goten looked at the small baby clothes. "I can't believe I wore this. It's so small," Goten said in wonder.

Chi-Chi laughed at her youngest son. "You were a cute little baby." Chi-Chi said and took some more clothes out. "It's been years since they've been worn. We have to wash it all before the baby is born."

They all heard a knocking at the front door. Goten jumped up. "I'll get it," he said and hopped out of the room.

Chi-Chi looked at Goku slyly. "Ready for loud crying, diaper changing and late-night feedings again?"

"Sure," Goku said cheerfully.

"Yeah, you say that because you're going to leave me with most of the work," Chi-Chi said.

"No, I won't," Goku said putting an arm around her, one of his hands on her stomach protectively, feeling somewhat protective and affectionate. "I promise to help out more."

"You say that now. Wait until the baby is crying at three in the morning and you roll over and say, 'Chi-Chi, the baby's calling for you.' That's what you will say. I remember you doing that with Gohan."

"I only did that when Gohan was first born and you were breastfeeding him," Goku said. He hugged her close to him and smelled her dark hair. "You smell nice." He buried his head in her neck. "Very nice." Goku gave gentle nips on Chi-Chi's neck, causing Chi-Chi to squeal.

"Goku!" Chi-Chi laughed, trying to push him away.

Goku pulled his lips from her neck suddenly and looked at her in her eyes, a soft look on his face. "You look very pretty when you're pregnant."

Chi-Chi was surprised at his sudden display of affection and closed her eyes as Goku kissed her on the lips. Chi-Chi kissed back firmly, her fingers in his hair massaging his scalp and black hair. Goku moved as close as he could to Chi-Chi. One of his hands caressing her back, causing Chi-Chi to arch closer to him.

"See, Goten. This is how babies are made."

Goku and Chi-Chi opened their eyes and pulled away to see Bulma and Goten standing in the doorway. "Bulma," Chi-Chi said surprised. "What are you doing here?"

"I came to visit. Obviously, it was a bad time," Bulma said and stared at Chi-Chi's bulging stomach. The anger in her started to rise, but Bulma pushed it down. She looked back up at Chi-Chi. "I came to take you shopping. It's been eight years since you had a kid and the style for children's clothes has changed."

"I don't need to get new clothes because it's the latest, Bulma," Chi-Chi said.

"Oh, come on, Chi-Chi. You're my friend. Let me take you to get more clothes for the baby. I'll pay for it of course. It's my gift to you since I didn't get a chance to throw you a baby shower."

"Thank you, but it's really not needed," Chi-Chi said. "We have plenty of clothes."

Bulma sifted through the clothes. "No, you need better clothes than this. Come on. Let me take you out. While we're out, we can get loaded on diapers, baby wipes and bottles. You can never have enough diapers and baby wipes."

"That's true," Chi-Chi noted. "All right. I'll go with you."

"Great!" Bulma beamed. "Let's go now. We should shop before the stores closes."

Goku helped Chi-Chi off the floor. "Let's not be gone too long, Bulma. I have to get dinner started for these three hungry men." Chi-Chi looked up at Goku. "I'm leaving you and Goten to finish with the baby room, Goku. Do you think you can do that?" Chi-Chi asked.

"Yeah, Chi-Chi. It's no big deal."

"Uh-huh," Chi-Chi said doubtfully but gave Goku a quick kiss on the cheek. "I'll be back soon." Bulma kept herself from rolling her eyes once more at the affection between husband and wife.

Goten tugged on his mother's dress. "Momma, can I come too?"

"No, Goten. This is woman's stuff. You'll get bored," Bulma said.

"It might not be as fun as spending the day with your Daddy, and if I know you two, you're going to be sparring," Chi-Chi said. "I'll see you two later." Chi-Chi left the baby room to get her purse and then left with Bulma to go shopping.

"Theses are some cute sleepers. Don't you think so, Bulma?" Chi-Chi asked Bulma.

Bulma looked at the dark blue sleeper Chi-Chi was holding. "It is cute. The blue reminds me of the color of Vegeta's uniform. Don't you think so?" Bulma picked up an orange baby bodysuit. "And look at the color of this bodysuit? If you blend the two together, it would resemble Vegito's uniform. I think you should get it, Chi-Chi. It might look cute on the baby."

Chi-Chi looked confused for a moment and then at the two colors. "It does resemble that uniform, but I like the colors. You're right. It may look cute on the baby. Goku always did look good in orange and blue."

Bulma kept herself from rolling her eyes again. 'Tramp.' "So, are you excited about the baby?"

"Of course I am. I always wanted a big family."

"You and Goku must've have really got it on that night he separated from Vegeta," Bulma said suddenly. "I guess I can understand that. Seven years is a long time."

"Yeah, it is," Chi-Chi said absently putting another sleeper and bodysuits in the cart.

"I think it's amazing that the kid was conceived that night Goku was himself again. Talk about the odds. But hey, I guess when you're fertile, you're fertile. Amazing how one night could change everything," Bulma said and continued. "That's how it happened with me and Vegeta. That one night and Trunks was conceived. I love him but Trunks was kind of an accident."

"That's life, but I'm sure Trunks was a good accident." Chi-Chi said and put some diapers for newborns in the cart. 'Wonder why Bulma is talking his way.'

"Was the baby an accident?" Bulma asked suddenly.

Chi-Chi stopped looking at the baby paraphernalia and looked at Bulma surprised. "Bulma, how could you say that?"


"Some babies are," Bulma said. "But that doesn't make you love it less. I'm not insinuating anything, unless…" she looked at Chi-Chi cautiously. "Was the baby was an accident?"

Chi-Chi swallowed hard. Suddenly the room felt hot and her mouth was dry. She could almost feel herself starting to sweat. "The baby was a surprise, but Goku and I are happy and will love the child no matter what."

"What do you mean by that?" Bulma asked cautiously. "You make it sound as if something will be wrong with the child."

"No," Chi-Chi shook her head. "There's nothing wrong with the child. He's fine."

"Of course he is," Bulma said cheerfully. "From the way you were talking, I got the feeling something wasn't right."

Chi-Chi did her best to laugh it off. "You're not making any sense, Bulma. Come on. Let's finish shopping." Chi-Chi stopped and placed a hand on her stomach. "Ooh…this baby. He's a strong one all right. Sometimes I think he's punching my stomach instead of kicking it," Chi-Chi joked. Chi-Chi rubbed her stomach for a moment. "I think I'm fine now. Let's continue."

Chi-Chi stopped and looked at a bouncer. "I could use another of this. Gohan and Goten loved playing on the bouncer as a baby. So much that they both broke it. I knew they were strong then but I didn't think anything of it." Chi-Chi picked it up and put it in the cart. "Have you and Vegeta thought about having another child? It could be a playmate for this baby here."

'Oh, yeah have two half siblings play together and not know they are related.' "No," Bulma said. "I don't think Vegeta and I would be having another child."

"Why not?" Chi-Chi asked.

'Because I don't want that slimy cheat to ever touch me again. No, I mustn't blame this on Vegeta. He had no control over his feelings but Chi-Chi should did. How can she claim she loves Goku and sleeps with my husband? Yuji's right. It's her or me.'

"I think one is enough. Could you imagine another Vegeta running around, Chi-Chi? So proud and boastful?" Bulma asked. "Luckily you don't have that problem because your child's father is Goku."

Chi-Chi smiled weakly. "Yes, that's true."

"He's probably going to be innocent and naïve and have such a pure heart and ride Nimbus because you and Goku are such good people."

Chi-Chi smiled. "I hope to raise another good boy like Gohan and Goten." Chi-Chi looked at the items in the cart. "I think we have enough and I'm rather tired. How about we checkout and go home?"

A brilliant smiled crossed Bulma's face. "I think that's a great idea, Chi-Chi. Let's go. Why don't go in line? I have to make a call anyway. Capsule Corp. business."

"All right, and before we leave, I really want to thank you taking time out of your busy schedule to do this for me. It was very nice of you." Chi-Chi moved closer and despite her large abdomen in the way, managed to give Bulma a hug. "You're a very good friend."

"Of course I am," Bulma said proudly. "I'm the best."

****

After purchasing the baby items and loading them in Bulma's car, the two left the mall. Bulma only drove for a mile, when she turned into a bank and parked the car. She left the car running and unbuckled her seatbelt. She opened her purse and pulled out her wallet.

"I hope you don't mind me stopping for a moment before I drive you home, Chi-Chi, but I have to get some money out of the bank. I'm ordering dinner tonight and I have to get about two hundred out to feed Vegeta and Trunks," Bulma explained.

Chi-Chi unbuckled her seatbelt, getting relief from having her large stomach free from the belt. Being in this stage of pregnancy, it was uncomfortable to have that belt around her stomach. "No, I'm fine. I understand. I sometimes wish I could order out like you."

Bulma smiled and got out of the car. She walked briskly to the bank and waited behind two people who were also at the ATM at the bank waiting for their turn. Bulma saw a young man with jeans, T-shirt and a leather jacket stepped out of the back passenger side of a dark car. Bulma looked away and concentrated on moving up in line as the second person in front of her left the ATM.

The man looked as if he was walking to the bank but at the last moment, he threw on a black ski mask, ran towards Bulma's car and got in. Chi-Chi was startled to see this strange man get in the car.

"Who are you?" Chi-Chi demanded. "This isn't your car!"

"It's mine now!" The man said wickedly. He put the car in drive and nearly flew out of the parking lot at high speed.

Bulma looked away and saw her car nearly flying out of the parking lot. "Hey, wait!" She yelled as she ran out of line. "Stop thief! That's my car!!" 'Payback, you slut. I won't you or that child take Vegeta from me.'

A man who was in line with Bulma ran to her. "Your car was stolen?"

"Yes!" She feign being panicked. "And my pregnant friend is in there!"

"I'm a detective," the man said immediately showing his badge. He took her hand. "Come on. I'll call any units nearby from my car and get your friend back."

'Oh, great,' Bulma panicked as she was pulled to the detective's car. 'This wasn't part of the plan. If the detective catches him, he may blab on me.'

"Let me go right now!" Chi-Chi ordered.

"Okay," the man said wickedly. He pressed a button on the driver's side and Chi-Chi's door opened. "Don't you just love these newly modeled cars? Now get out!"

"Have you lost your mind?!" Chi-Chi yelled. "I'm not getting out while you're driving! I'm pregnant! Stop the car and let me out!"

"Nah. It's more fun this way!"

Chi-Chi tried reaching for the keys of the car but the man struggled with her. "Let go, lady!" He growled as Chi-Chi pulled the mask off and got a good look at him. With one hand on the steering wheel and struggling to keep control of the road, he punched Chi-Chi in the face hard and pushed her out of the car.

Chi-Chi cried out as her body was pushed out of the car and came in contact with the hard concrete of the street, knocking her out. She rolled twice before her body came to a complete stop.

****

"Okay, Goten, give it all you got," Goku told his son.

After they had taken all the baby clothes and toys out of the boxes, Goku and Goten went outside to spar to pass the time as they waited for Chi-Chi to come home and cook dinner.

"All right, Daddy. I'm gonna give it all I have," Goten said. He was in Super Saiyan form and Goku hadn't changed to a Super Saiyan yet.

Goten ran to his father to strike him and that was when Goku felt a strange pain in his heart. He knew without fully thinking it that something terrible had happened to Chi-Chi. Out of nowhere a small fist came in contact with Goku's face, sending the adult male Saiyan to the ground.

Goten ran to his father concern. "Daddy, are you okay? I didn't hit you too hard, did I?"

Goku immediately stood up, a pain look on his face, but there was no denying the anger on his face. His wife was hurt and someone had to pay. "Your mother. I have to go to her, Goten. Stay here," his father ordered. Using Instant Transmission, he searched for Chi-Chi's ki, found it and vanished.

Goku gasped in horror as he materialized and found Chi-Chi lying on the hard concrete pavement of the street unconscious. She was lying on her side. Goku gently rolled her over onto her back. There was a large gash on her forehead with blood leaking out. Her legs and arms had scrapes on them with slits of blood oozing out and she looked lifeless on the ground.

"Oh, Kami! No! Chi-Chi!!"

To Be Continued

AN: Let the Bulma bashing begin! I'm kidding but I bet a lot of people are furious with Bulma and Bulma fans are furious with me for making her do such a thing. I told you Bulma fans not to read this story! At the beginning of the next chapter, there is a flashback that will explain as to how Bulma came to this decision. Oh, boy, I'm very nervous on reading the reviews to this one. Please be nice to me.

Vancouver: Have the guts and accept the bashing of ChiChi and Goku haters to do it, but reading reviews like yours makes it all worthwhile to write and continue it.

Saiyanjin-Princess: You'll know soon now after this chapter. I bet you're mad, aren't you?

Moon Girl: Are you going mad at this evil cliffhanger?

XMadgirlx: LOL! Sorry about your capture. Just knock 'em out and hurry back to read this chapter.

The Lost Saiyan: LOL! I can imagine that you are mad at Bulma had set up for Chi-Chi and you want her blood. I think everyone is mad at her for this chapter. I'm gonna cringe when the reviews come.

Leigh: You might be really stressed out with this chapter. Yes, I'm a very big Chi-Chi fan and a huge Goku. I just love that couple and I'm proud to admit it. I'm still debating if I should end it like how I planned or if I should make a new ending. This chapter and the next two chapters are really going to make me decide.

Jason: Well, according to a lot of people Bulma already is one. For your information although I haven't seen DBGT yet, I have seen every episode of DBZ Cartoon Network has aired since it's beginning in the fall of 1998 till now. I've also seen the movies they aired plus the ones they didn't air--Cooler's Revenge, Return of Cooler and Lord Slug. I've also seen the Japanese Versions of many DBZ episodes and Bulma is sometimes worst than the English version. Bulma not only has major mood swings but she can be whiny, selfish, spoiled and sometimes not a good friend. She did try to leave Goku, Gohan and Piccolo on Namek. Yes, Bulma does love Vegeta 100%. I wasn't implying that she wasn't in this story and if you're referring to the B/Y thing in the previous chapter, they are just friends.

As for Vegeta being a better husband than Goku, I wouldn't even go that far. Just because he stays with his wife doesn't make Vegeta a good husband and certainly not a better one than Goku. Have you forgotten in the Android Saga when Vegeta was going to let Bulma and baby Trunks crash their plane and die when he was chasing Dr. Gero? He didn't even care to save him. If it wasn't for Future Trunks, Bulma and baby Trunks would be dead. Vegeta doesn't even hug his family like Goku. The only time Vegeta showed any care for his family was when he was about to die. He hugged Trunks when he was about to die against Buu. He even said it himself. Vegeta could've hugged Trunks when they were alone but he never did that. Make sure you get all your facts straight before you make comments such as Vegeta being a better husband than Goku.

Making that statement about Goku and Uub, shows that you don't understand Goku all that well if at all. How many episodes of DBZ and DB have you seen? Goku only leaves to train, fight, and to protect his family. In DB, you see why he loves to fight and in DBZ, you see how he has changed his views on fighting and how his family has made him come to his new view. He always comes back. The only times Goku left is when he died with Raditz, he had to go to Namek to help Krillin and Gohan, stayed on Yardrat to get well and learn IT which was useful in fighting Cell, stayed dead for the safety of the Earth and trained Uub because he saw potential in him and plus he would be a good addition to the Z-fighter team. There is another reason for Goku to train Uub but it will take too long to explain and this reply is long enough already. Think about this suppose Uub was trained by the wrong person and used his power for evil, it'll be the Majin Buu Saga all over again. Besides, Goku made the promise to Buu to fight again and not Vegeta. If it was Vegeta, he probably would've left too. Whenever Goku left it was always for the safety and protection of his family. All the other times, he stayed home with his family, like that five years before DBZ started and the ten year period before he left with Uub. The only people that he really didn't see were his friends. A lot of reviewers are against Bulma in this story because they don't like her, not because of this story, but they don't like her from DB/Z/GT. Are you a B/V fan? I told you people not to read this story. If you are one, I suggest you stop reading now.

ButterflyV: During that seven year period of Goku's death, Chi-Chi did understand Goku's reason to fight. She did train Goten and didn't protest when he was training with Trunks to be Gotenks. Of course she was unconscious at the time because she fainted. The reason Chi-Chi stopped Gohan from fighting because she doesn't want her son to get hurt. Would you really want your five-year-old and eleven-year-old on the battlefield fighting evil monsters that can blow up the planet? During that time of Goku's death, Chi-Chi saw it was vital that he fought and she does understand a Saiyan ways better now.

GD: LOL! You're too much sometimes! The new kid may explain that his father Goku is married to his mom Chi-Chi so that might put an end to the gay Daddy theory. Still, a lot of people would be confused.

Midnight Goddess: Let me guess. You're furious and you want Bulma to die after reading this chapter? The story was suppose to end in the 18th chapter I think but I may continue. The decision isn't final yet. I'm not going to bring Vegito back. Sorry. That's just too easy. Chi-Chi would've fallen for him completely but since he's separated it won't happen. I don't think Goku would want to share his wife with another man. He's naïve and all but he's still a man. Remember you're suppose to have my back and I think a lot of Bulma lovers will want my hide for making her do this.

CB: Vegito can't come back. Well, he could but I'm not bringing him back. I wonder how your review to this will be. Mad like everyone else, wanting Bulma's blood.

Girl: Hope you like it.

Chuquita: Everything's topsy-turvy here! Now the next big ep to look for is Transformed at last! One of my favorites even though I was scared of Goku when he transformed. Maybe it was a good thing Chi-Chi didn't get stronger and learned to fly because she would've been on the battlefield and a distraction to Goku because he would've been worried about her safety.

Hikari no Tabi: I know you're mad. Hee. Hee. Maybe shocked too, but definitely mad.

Sammi: LOL! I wonder what you have to say for this one. You're probably mad at me for this horribly evil cliffhanger. I wonder what your pal Piccolo will say to you to calm you down.

Contrail: Bulma's behavior right now is inexcusable! After their breakup, I think Bulma and Yamcha loved each other as friends. I don't particular like all the Yamcha bashing that's given to him. He's a cool guy. He's just not right for Bulma but I thought he was cool even if he had a wandering eye. Bulma's eyes wandered too.

GOGI: How'd you feel about this chapter?

Lady Athena: I know you have a lot to say. I'm very anxious to read your review! Goku always want someone's food. Hee. Hee. He's adorable just like Goten. He trust Chi-Chi and even though he's not fond of Vegeta for having feelings for his wife, he believes he wouldn't act on his feeling. He only did that when he was Vegito and never as Vegeta. You're really going to be looking for that confrontation on Bulma now. Remember nice and long review. I know you'll write one. Let all your anger and feelings out. Just don't direct it at me. Hee. Hee.

Danichan667: I'm anxious for your review too. I know you're mad! Sorry but I won't be bringing Vegito back. Yeah, you have a right to be a little scared of what I wrote but you're probably more shock and angry than anything else.

Baby Kitty: Bulma called Goku a stud in the Trunks Saga. It was in the English version. I think it was in one of the episodes where they were waiting for Goku or after he landed on Earth. You can be naïve and look good. G/CC are my favorite couple. They're so cute. I'm not fond of Goku and Chi-Chi bashing either and ready to defend them when necessary.

Princess Frieza: I think you mean interaction between Chi-Chi and Vegeta. I messed up like that in my writings sometimes too.

Xshiny: If I don't continue with the original ending I had plan, I'll tell you guys what it is. I think Vegeta could be civil. It'll take some time and years but it'll happen.

Oninu: It's more dramatic now. That's my devious mind working there. Make everything light for a couple of chapters and then I drop this shocking bomb. I understand your comments. You're a B/V fan right or you prefer to see Bulma with Vegeta and not see him with any feelings for anyone but her? I said from the beginning this is one weird story for any fans of Bulma to not read. You probably want to strangle me now.
