A/N: Sorry this is kind a short. Note at the end to explain.
ChiChi lied on the bed, tears staining her once lover's pillow. Her eyes burned, and her chest hurt from her intense crying. As her breathing came back to a slower pace, she looked out the window and on to the beautiful clear blue sky. Praying silently to Goku for comfort.
She felt so alone. And now this.... She wasn't sure if Trunks really did do it out of pity, or if what he said about loving her was true. How could she believe him? He has only been her for a day in a half. Yes he was older now, and was no long a boy, but still. The last time she saw him, he was.
He was so handsome; blushing when she looked at him and smiled..... When she thought about it, he did blush. Every time she looked at him in fact. Did that mean, he really did have a crush on her? Did that crush turn in to something more over the years? What was she thinking!
NO! She was faithful to Goku! And only Goku!.......No one could take her away from him..... no one......
Even though she longed to be held.
But she couldn't betray Goku. She made a promise to him that she would never love any other man, the way she loved him. That she would never let another man into 'their' home, in to 'their' bed. No she promised. And the Son family 'always' kept their promises. Always.
Tears began to fill ChiChi's eyes again. Struggling to breath as they fell uncontrollably down her face and on to Goku's once pillow.
"Oh, Goku......." Her voice so ever small and lost in her own ear.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Down stares, Gohan continued to listen to his mother's off and on crying. He felt so weak when she cried. He never new what to do, or what to say for that matter.
Sitting at the table with his head in his hands, he thought of what might have happened. He didn't think Trunks would have been forceful with her. That's something Trunks could never do. So what happened?
He couldn't take it any more. Knowing his mother would not want to be bothered, and she wouldn't come down stares, he took off to find Trunks.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Goku looked down over the world, and frowned. "Well this isn't going to go to well." He said to him self. "Gohan, please control your temper.... Wow, never thought I would have to say that." He said putting his hand behind his head laughing.
But his serous face came back on as he looked over to where Trunks was. He wasn't sure how he was suppose to feel about Trunks right now. Trunks saved his life before, but that was before. The sayain in him didn't like the fact of him moving in on his mate. But he was dead now, and the other part of him wanted ChiChi to be happy. But still, the thought of some other man sharing a bed with 'his' mate.........
"Guess I'm going to have straiten this out myself." His face serious, as well as his voice.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Trunks looked down at the table, as he father continued to stare at him. He hated this, not knowing what was going on in his father's head. He's stare just alone, made him feel uncomfortable.
Finally getting the guts to look up he saw Vegeta smirking. "What?" He asked confused as to why he had a smirk.
Vegeta shook his head, the smirk still in place. "It's just now I know why you came back. So what exactly are you planning on doing now?" He asked, looking at Trunks, who looked confused.
"I... I don't know. I don't think she'll even listen to me, if I try and talk to her again." He said lowing his head down again.
"Humph. Your problem is, you let her intimidated you. You have to show her your not going to back down." Vegeta said getting up to leave the room. "A woman wants some one strong."
"What? You mean you don't think its stupid to feel this way about her?" Trunks asked trying to figure out why he hasn't got smacked around for his feels.
Turning his head slightly, he frowned. "Why should I. Kakkorot is dead, so your not dishonoring him in any way. I really don't think you want or plan to, in fact. You're trying to take care of his mate, not take advantage. Besides, the woman needs to stop sulking around, and realize that Kakkorot is not coming back." And with that he turned and walked out of the room.
Bulma who was sitting at the table as well, still shocked from hearing what her son had told her finally snapped out of it. "And what about me! Don't I have a say in this? ChiChi is way to old for you! I will not stand for this!" Bulma stomped as she stood up.
Looking at his mother Trunks frowned. "Mother......No you don't have a say in this. Besides, she's not older then me." He said reminding her that he had came back from time in a specific way to be just one year older then ChiChi.
Narrowing her eyes, Bulma refused to loose a battle. "Well I still refuse to agree to this. And I do have a say in this. You're my son!" She argued.
"Yes, I am. But I'm not a little boy... You can't tell me what to do." He said going up and hugging her before turning around and walking out the back door.
Bulma stood there alone in the kitchen and stomped her foot again. "Doesn't any one care what I think!" She yelled.
(No!!! hehehe)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As Trunks began to fly back towards ChiChi's house, he spotted Gohan, having him stop. "Oh what now...." He said know Gohan was probably mad at him.
As Gohan stopped in front of him he narrowed his eyes. "Look Gohan, I'm really not in the mood to argue." He said his voice showing his frustration.
"Well, make time." Gohan said, his face stern.
Running his hands threw his hair, like he always did when he was frustrated, he let out a sigh. "What, Gohan? What do you want to fight about now?"
Gohan could hear the anger in his voice and tightened his fists. "Don't talk to me as if I'm a kid on punishment, Trunks! Now why did my mother come in crying? What did you do to her!?" He yelled, flying up to him and grabbing him bye the front of his shirt.
As Trunks was lifted be the shirt, he pushed back and hit Gohan's hand away. "I didn't do any thing. We had an argument. Now if you would get out of my way, I'm on my way to talk to her right now." He told him as he narrowed his eyebrows. He didn't like be pushed around, let alone grabbed like that.
"Why should I? How am I suppose to know your not going to just go and upset her some more." Lowing his head a bit, he looked at Trunks. "Look... I'm trying. I really am. I just don't like seeing her upset. And if you're going to upset her then I don't want you around her." His voice low.
"Gohan.....Please. I don't want to fight! But I'm not going to just back off, cuz your afraid of loosing your mother! Damnit, Gohan! Would you grow up and realize you can't protect your mother forever! What happens when you go and get married! And Goten grows up and starts a life of his own!" He yelled. "Who will be there for her then! Who Gohan! You can't! Cuz, you'll be to worried about your own family!"
Flying up to Gohan he pushed him to the side, wanting to get to ChiChi, but as he flew past him, Gohan caught his arm. Turning slightly, with an angry face, Trunks got prepared to stop a hit form him but he then frowned.
"I'm sorry....." Gohan said looking at him, he face soft and lost. "I know I can't protect her.....not forever. But she tried so hard to protect me, I just..... I hurt her so much in the past, running off to fight and everything..... I just wanted to show her I still need her." He said letting go of Trunks.
Trunks sighed again while looking at Gohan. "I know....Gohan, I'm not going to hurt her or-"
"I know." Gohan said smiling. "I just got scared......Look I'll try not to cause any more trouble ok. Just.....don't make her cry...... ok?"
Smiling Trunks nodded. "Ok." He said turning and making his way to the Son house.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Back at the Son's House, ChiChi made her way back to her room, after she got her self a cup of water, and lied herself on her bed. Tired and dehydrated from her tears she turned over and cuddled up into Goku's pillow once more.
Comforted in a small amount bye the memories of the two of them together on quiet cool nights. Smiling softly at the memory of the way he would hold her, or the way he would speak when the rest of the world was asleep. The way he would make love to her..........
The thought bringing her salty tears back, letting them fall freely. Pulling her hand up, she covered her face, ashamed of how weak she was acting. But she couldn't help it. She loved him...... she missed him......
She remembered all the times she would yell at him, and it only made her heart ack more. She yelled about so many little things that she wasn't sure if Goku really know how much she loved him. That all the yelling was out of worry, and that she only wanted them to all be happy. A happy family, that's all she ever wanted.
She missed being able to be with Goku, and watching him play with Gohan, and she hated the fact that Goten would never get to meet him. It hurt her more then any thing that Goten would never be able to see what a happy little family the four of them could make.
"I hate it....." She said quietly........."I hate the fact that Goten wont know." She spoke her thoughts to the empty room.
"I hate that Goten wont know, that he wont see, that he'll never get the chance!" She screamed into the pillow. "That he will never meet you!" She yelled louder.
"I hate that Gohan wont see you ever again! I hate that he wont be able to go fishing with you!" she continued to yell. "I hate that! I hate they're loneliness! I hate my loneliness! I hate not being held! I hate being alone!!!!!"
"I hate it! I hate it! I hate it! I hate it! I hate you!!!!!!!!!!!!!" She screamed at the top of her lungs as she sat up and threw the pillow across the room. "Do you hear me!? I hate you! I hate you for leaving me alone! I hate you for not being here! I hate you for dying! I hate you! I hate you! I hate you, Goku!!!!!!!"
Tears falling down faster then ever, as her voice cracked as she continued to scream the same thing over and over. Shacking violently as her heart picked up speed she pulled her knees up to her chest and placed her face into her hands, as she shook.
Hearing her door open and a small creek from a foot step, ChiChi's head shot to the side to yell at who ever dared to enter her room. But her anger faded away at the sight of him in the doorway. Putting a hand out to reach for him, her scared shaky voice cracked from her screaming, as she called quietly to him. "Goku?..............."
A/N: Ahhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!! Wow cliffhanger! Big time! Sorry, but I got to stop here. I got made, so I decided to finish this chapter and leave a cliffhanger to make you all made! Mwahahaha!........ Oh, no that was mean. I hate it when other authors leave me hanging. :( I'm sorry. But I'm getting ready to move so it's hard to get these chapters out. But I'm trying. Sorry for the delay. Stop being so mean! I'm doing my best, what with a web site and work and stories.! Ahhhhhhhhhh! Oh yeah, I got ChiChi wallpaper for your desk top on my web site. You never see any wallpaper of her! So know there is. Laters.
