Piccolo stirred in his sleep, his sharp senses telling him that he's being watched. The Namek's eyelids lifted and he growled under his breath when he realized that all of his friends were gawking at him and his mate.

Krillin smirked as he hobbled forward, Tetsi still leaning on his shoulder, "Ah Piccolo, you pimp, you!"

"Shut-up, dumb ass!" Piccolo snarled in reply.

The bald monk frowned, "Aw c'mon Piccolo, you know I'm just pullin' your leg. I'm actually really happy for ya!"

"Thanks, I guess."

Vegeta snorted, "Who would have thought the green wonder would get a woman. I pity you, Namek----"

"WHAT WAS THAT?!" The terrifying voice of Bulma boomed throughout the household as she and the other women and children emerged from hiding. Vegeta turned slowly to face his wife.

"Nothing, Woman."

Bulma's face turned bright red before she pulled a sledgehammer out of nowhere. "You jerk! I'll show you!"

Vegeta peeled out of the room with Bulma hot on his heels. Gohan shook his head and sighed, "That Vegeta, he never knows when to keep his big mouth shut...."

Tien suddenly shot his fist into the air, "Hey guys, Piccolo's almost healed! That means the dragonballs are still here on Earth! We can wish Yamcha and Chichi back to life and get Tetsi's sight back!"

All the excited commotion caused Deshee to stir from her nap, "Hm?"

Gohan leapt across the bed, landing squarely on Piccolo's stomach, and grabbed Deshee up in a big bear hug. "You're okay!"

"I'm okay!" she squealed back.

"I can't breathe....." Piccolo's voice came out in a high-pitched gasp.

"Sorry, Piccolo-san!" The scholar blushed and crawled off of his former sensei.

Krillin smiled broadly, "Hey, lets all order a pizza, all that panicking has made me hungry!"

Choatzu glomped onto Krillin's bald head, "And then we can go find the dragonballs!"

The whole group burst into excited chatter as they all headed out of the room. Once everyone was gone, Piccolo turned to Deshee.

"Hey kid."

"Hi Piccolo-san....."

"I guess it's all over, huh?"

"Yeah..... Hey Piccolo?"

"Hm?"

"We're gunna be together forever, right?"

Piccolo smiled softly, "You can bet your ass we will be!" And he took the girl into his arms and kissed her on the lips.

'Together forever..... sounds like a plan....'
