(A/N): Gosh, I am soooo sorry for the longer than usual wait. I've been sick for most of the week, and having a couple of exams didn't make things better. I hope you guys aren't too mad at me and are still interested in this fic. Please forgive me! If you're still paying attention, thanks and you have reached just about half way through this fic, yep, there's still another eight or so chaps to go. Isn't that something? Well, I'll shut up now and just keep moving right along.
Sorry for the wait, thanks for so many reviews:
Tatoosh: I'm glad you understand. " ...for all we know in the series when he is alone he wears dresses and cries over Chobits..." LMAO!! It could be true. Thank you.
Hecate18: You'll find out. Yep, Goku has to be ok in this fic. Wouldn't really work if he wasn't, now would it?
Lady Sakura-chan: Glad you liked the chapter. Thanks for liking the way I write Veggie in this fic. Maybe I write his part of view better than Goku's because I like him more and pay attention to his character because I love it! I think so too.
SunnyVampireChild2004: Thanks for liking the chapter. Lets see what Vegeta decides to do, I can't really control him, ya know.
Blulily19: I thought it was kinda sweet too. Well, here's the next chapter for ya!
Chizuko-chan: I think its cute too. You'll find out what happens if you read this next chap. Like always, I hope you like it!
Buzz: Hello. I'm glad that you thought this past chapter was good. Yeah, fluffiness rocks! I appreciate you loving the story, even though I didn't expect that type of feeling for my fic. I don't know if its a word, but at least I understand what you're saying... ^_^;
Disclaimer: I do not own Dragon Ball Z/GT. How many times do I have to keep repeating myself? Sheesh. ¬_¬
Save Me From This Pain, Chapter Seven (Goku's POV)
Sunlight hit my eyelids and I srunched my eyebrows in annoyance. I wanted to keep sleeping! I probably was in heaven already because it sure as hell felt like it! I didn't want to open my eyes just yet, can't you go away for a little while, sun? I felt so good...
I was warm, not uncomfortably warm, just a safe kind of warmth. It felt like there was a small weight across the top of my chest, maybe someone or something holding me? I wasn't sure. There was also some small pressure against the top of my head. I purred softly and cuddled closer to the subject. I could stay like this forever. And it smelled so good...
I enjoyed myself a little longer but I finally decided to get up. Softly, I opened my eyes, loosened myself from the light grip, and stared up. Wait, a moment... since when does heaven have a ceiling? I turned my head to the left... And a window? Right, I guess I'm not dead after all, but I didn't fall on a bed, it was grass that was beneath me. Getting accustomed to my surroundings, I picked up a light snore-like sound from my right ear. That wasn't me because I'm awake, and my stomach does not sound like that, or at least I hope not. I finally turned to face the one responsible for making the noise and saw... Vegeta?!
Blinking rapidly, suddenly aware of the position we were in, I blushed. I was sleeping with Vegeta? Was this a dream? Or was I just imagining things? Was this some kind of cruel joke? Maybe, I was finally driven to the point of insanity. Oh well, one way to find out. Grabbing a piece of the skin from the top of my left hand, I pinched it and yelled out loud signaling my pain and that I was obviously not dreaming. Oh shit!
My eyes locked on Vegeta, I prayed to Kami that he wouldn't wake up. Unfortunately, I saw him slowly blink the sleep out of his eyes as he looked at me. With eyes as wide as a fish, he stared in surprise at his vulnerability, he fell out of the wooden chair he sat on.
"Oof!" He scrambled back in his chair and looked away embarrassed. Although there was a LOT of tension here, I just kept imagining his cute little face as he willed away his sleepiness, so kawaii! Finally gaining his composure, he turned back to face me, cheeks tinted with the slight residue of crimson.
"How are you feeling, Kakarotto?" He inquired. Well, if you want to know the truth, pretty damn good while I was in your arms! But I wasn't going to answer that. What do you take me for? An idiot?
"I feel better, Vegeta, much better." Right now, kind of awkward but just a minute ago, that's exactly how I felt with you. "By the way, what happened? How did you know that...that I...?"
"I sensed your ki drop. Even though I want to become stronger than you, and I will, who would prove to be a challenge to me more than you? Seriously, we fellow Saiyans have to look out for one another, right?" He answered, I am so stupid. And here I expected him to tell me that he felt the same way for me as I did for him. He's just looking out for our race, so you can stop thinking that Goku!
"Well, in all sincerity, thank you Vegeta. I can't tell you how much I appreciate it..."
"Cut the crap, Kakarotto. You know you don't have to thank me for anything. Just be greatful that I did it." He snapped back at me, but it wasn't as menancingly as usual. I'm starting to believe that he was scared for a second when I was about to die, there. I can deal with it but now I know that at least, in a way, Vegeta cares for me, even if he won't admit it.
He smirked at me, not harshly, and I would dare say relieved. I smiled back, my signature Son smile plastered on my face. Such a beautiful creature, he was. I sighed internally, if only he knew...
(A/N): There it is folks! Kind of exciting, ne? I know you guys were desperately waiting for this chappie but I hope I didn't dissapoint you or break your spirit. Remember that I'd never do it intentionally. It's been a rough week, but we always have some of those once in a while, right? Tune in next time and I'll be waiting patiently (or at least try to) for some feedback. Please remember, read and review! Vegeta2J, over and out.
