Part 4: Complicated Months
Chapter 6: Fun
I do not own Dragonball Z.
============================================================================
"GOTEN! IT'S TIME TO GO HOME!" Chi-Chi yelled from the living room of Capsule Corp. Two blurs, on orange and one purple, appeared in the room a few seconds later.
"Do I have to go mommy? I wanna stay and play with Trunks-kun." Her son asked.
"No, I think you've spent enough time here terrorizing Bulma. It's time to go."
The two chibis looked at each other before Goten turned back to his mother and, with puppy dog eyes, asked, "Then can Trunks-kun come home with us and stay the night?"
Before the woman could reply, her friend answered for her. "Of course he can!" The blue haired woman said a little too enthusiastically. "In fact, he can stay for three nights."
"YAY!" Goten said as he jumped into the air, his black hair drooping down over his eyes.
"Come on Goten, let's go decide what I should bring over." Trunks said as he dragged his friend from the room.
"Gee thanks Bulma, I was afraid I'd have some peace and quiet at home."
"It's the least I could do." Bulma replied with a smirk. "Besides, they can keep Gohan and Videl away from each other until the pills start to work."
"Oh yea. I forgot about that." The woman replied cheerfully before almost pouting. "Good idea Bulma." She said in a voice that showed that she thought the idea wasn't good at all. Part of her didn't want the pills to work so she'd get a grandchild. But at the same time she knew that Gohan and Videl were not yet ready for the trials and tribulations of parenthood.
~*~
"Nii-chan!" "Gohan-chan!" Goten and Trunks yelled as they burst into the older demi-Saiya-jin's bedroom.
"AHH!" Screeched a surprised feminine voice as the covers on the bed moved in a blur to cover its occupants.
"Goten! Trunks! Don't you two know how to knock?" Gohan asked as he sat up in bed, anger evident in his tone.
The two chibis just stared with pale faces for several seconds before making disgusted noises. "K-Kaa-san wanted us to tell you that dinner is almost ready." Goten stuttered before he and Trunks carefully tiptoed out of the room like they were backing away from some dangerous animal.
"Al-" Before Gohan could finish, the door slammed shut. "How could I have missed the fact that they are home?" He asked himself as he lay back down.
"I don't know, but where were we?" Videl asked with a smirk.
"Hmmright about here I think." Gohan replied as he pulled the covers completely over them as he captured her lips with his.
~*~
"Did you tell your brother that dinner is almost ready?" Chi-Chi asked from the stove when she heard the two boys enter the kitchen. When several seconds had passed she turned to look at them and saw that both were a pail green. "What's wrong with you two?"
"Go-Gohan w-was"
"Nakkie with scary lady." Goten finished for his friend.
The woman raised an eyebrow in question to her son's response. "So why the green faces?"
"Because that's ICKY!!!" Goten exclaimed.
"Yeah! Why would anyone want to be in a bed naked with a girl!" Trunks agreed.
"Well if we adults didn't like it then you little kids would never be born."
"You mean that," Trunks said, "they're having sex?" Both finished.
Chi-Chi's eyes widened in shock with the fires of anger burning in them. "You two are too young to know about sex. Who told you about it? Who ever it was I'll-I'llVEGETA! It must be thatarrogant man that polluted my baby's mind. I'LL KILL HIM!"
~*~
After several seconds Videl broke the kiss and asked, "What was it your brother said?"
"Just that dinner is almost ready."
"Oh." The girl replied before resuming their kiss.
Several seconds passed before they stopped kissing again and looked at the clock beside the bed. "It's almost five thirty!" Both exclaimed at the same time. They continued to lie there while trying to understand how the hours had passed so quickly when what Goten had said finally sunk into their brains. "Food!" Both practically yelled, Videl shoved Gohan off of her and started to get dressed as Gohan untangled himself from the blankets to do the same.
As they walked down the hall they heard a yell of "Vegeta! I'll kill him!" come from the kitchen. Gohan and Videl glanced at each other while wondering what the Saiya-jin prince did this time as they walked into the kitchen.
"When did he talk to you two about it? Why did he talk to you two about it? Where were you when he talked to you two about it?" Chi-Chi ranted to Goten and Trunks while waiving her frying pan in the air. The two chibis were backed into a corner and looked like deer caught in the headlights of a car. "Tell me! TELL ME NOW!" Gohan and Videl looked about the same as the little kids. "WHEN THE HELL DID THAT BA-man TELL YOU ABOUT SEX?"
The two teens blinked in surprise. That was what this is about?
"Kaa-san?" Gohan said, braving the waters of an angry Chi-Chi. "Why are you upset about that? They would learn about it sooner or later."
"Upset? UPSET? I'm not UPSET, I'm perfectly HAPPY with the idea of his royal pain the ass teaching my baby about sex." The woman yelled, sarcasm dripping from every word. "And how dare you suggest that that is ok!" She added while swinging her frying pan towards Gohan's head.
The demi-Saiya-jin cringed as he awaited the sensation of bare metal crashing down on his skull. But something happened right then that sparred Gohan a lump on his head. His mother remembered what the two little ones had said about how they found her eldest son and Videl. Slowly opening one eye he saw his mother standing there with tears in her eyes as her frying pan brushed against his hair, sending a chill down the boy's spine at how close he had come to being hit.
"I-it's no longer my place to punish you." Chi-Chi said sadly as she turned to Videl. "Now it is your job to keep Gohan in line." She added while handing Videl the frying pan.
Videl couldn't seem to wrap her fingers around the instrument for, even in the short time she's been around the woman, she's come to fear frying pans and could never use one on a living being. Especially not Gohan. "I" ::Sorry Gohan.::
::Sorry for wh-::
"It's ok Chi-Chi-san. You can still punish Gohan-chan. He is your son after all." The girl replied before Gohan could finish his question. Her mate's eyes flew open wide from terror, in his eyes she could see that he felt betrayed.
::Sorry, I'll make it up to you later.:: She replied through their bond with a smirk on her face. Gohan brightened a little.
Chi-Chi blinked several times as she processed what Videl said. And when her mind wrapped around the words her eyes narrowed and her mouth became set in a smirk that would rival one of Vegeta's. "Thank you dear." She said sweetly while bring the frying pan back over her head. "THIS is for thinking that I shouldn't be upset with that man teaching my little baby about sex!" She yelled while swinging the pan down on Gohan's head. Upon impact the demi-Saiya-jin fell to the floor.
"AH! GOHAN!" Videl yelled as she knelt down next to him.
"Umoops! I uh, guess I hit him harder then I thought. Hehe." Chi-Chi said sheepishly while Videl glared at her as she held Gohan's head in her lap.
The two women her Gohan mumbling, "Mmmm" And when they leaned down to hear the quieter parts, Videl blushed deeply as Chi-Chi raced to cover the ears of the two little boys.
"SON GOHAN! How dare you use such language in front of your brother!" The boy's mother yelled while Goten and Trunks struggled to free themselves. "If you don't stop that RIGHT NOW then I'll make sure you get none of that for a MONTH!"
"EXCUSE me, but I think it's MY decision as to wheth- OUCH!" Videl yelled as she rubbed her head.
"No back talking!" Chi-Chi said sternly as she waived her frying pan at her son and Videl. Turning back around, she saw that Goten and Trunks had taken off when she released them to strike her future daughter-in-law. "Now, unless both of you don't want to eat for a week, I suggest you do what I say."
"Yes Ma'am!" Gohan, instantly awakened by the threat, and Videl yelled at the same time.
"Good now gdo you smell something burning?" She asked while sniffing the air. "Oh no! I forgot about the roast!" She yelled while running to the oven. When she opened it black smoke poured out into the room.
"Hey, what's burning?" Trunks asked as he and Goten returned from where ever they had gone.
Horror filled the faces of the chibis upon seeing the black lump that was a large roast.
"NOOOO! DINNER! WHY DID YOU HAVE TO BURN DINNER?" Goten yelled.
"Yea, I thought you could cook better then my mom." Trunks added.
A half second later he was being chased by Chi-Chi. And, after several seconds of yelling and screaming by the woman, the sound of metal hitting skull filled the house and Chi-Chi returned to the kitchen with a satisfied smile on her face. Her expression of joy changed to one of questioning when she saw her youngest kneeling on the floor with hands raised to the ceiling saying "Why?" over and over again while crying. And the two teens were just staring in silence at the lump that used to be food.
"Snap out of it. It's only food." The woman muttered as she dumped the roast in the garbage. "I'll just make something else. Dinner will be ready in an hour." She added, but the three demi-Saiya-jins didn't move an inch. "That means get your butts out of my kitchen this second or there will be NO dinner!" She yelled. Instantly a strong wind filled the room and she was alone.
~*~
"Wow, this is so cool. I get to eat really good food for the next three days!" Trunks said excitedly as he chowed down on the food before him.
"WHAT?" Gohan and Videl yelled.
"Oh, I guess I forgot to tell you." Chi-Chi replied with a sinister smile. "Trunks is staying for the next three nights."
"WHAT?" They repeated louder then before.
"Don't shout! It's not polite!" Chi-Chi yelled back. "And he's staying because he and Goten are going to act as your...birth control for the next couple of days."
"Our" The faces of the two teens burned red while Goten and Trunks continued to eat their meal.
"I don't think I want to know how that's going to work." Gohan said.
"Easy. When you're awake you two won't be left alone. And as for when you sleep. Well, either you and Videl can sleep in separate rooms or the four of you can sleep in the same room."
Gohan went pale as memories from the last time he had slept in the same room as the two little terrors came to mind. He had walked around with green hair for a month after that night.
"Please tell me that didn't happen." Videl said as she picked up on Gohan's thoughts.
"What happened?" Chi-Chi asked.
"Nothing Kaa-san." He replied out loud. ::I wish I could.:: Gohan muttered through their bond while beginning to eat his meal.
::If they do anything to either of us then they will die.:: Videl vowed as she took a bite. But just as she began chewing she picked up on another of Gohan's thoughts and almost spit out her mouth full of food.
Swallowing, she burst into laughter. "T-that certainly e-explains wh-why your m-mother does kn-know about it." She said between fits of giggles.
Chi-Chi looked at her son and Videl curiously. As much as she liked how her son has found a mate, she found it annoying how they switch between talking out loud and talking through their bond.
"It's not funny!" Gohan yelled out.
"What's not funny?" Chi-Chi asked.
"H-how did they d-do that? I mean d-didn't you have p-pants on?" Videl asked while still giggling.
Now the woman was utterly confused. Just what are they talking about?
"Yes. And I don't know how they dyed my hair green without taking them off." Gohan muttered.
Chi-Chi raised an eyebrow at her son before realizing what the implication of what he just said is. And as she realized it, she joined Videl in giggling at Gohan.
"IT'S NOT FUNNY!" The demi-Saiya-jin yelled. "You wouldn't think it funny if your pubic hair was green for a month." He muttered.
~*~
"Trunks! Give it back! That's my Asshole Satan toy!" Goten yelled as he chased Trunks through the house.
Unfortunately for him, his mother heard what he said. And regardless of whether or not she thought it a fitting name she didn't want her child talking like that. So she smacked him on the head with her frying pan as he ran past the kitchen. Soapy water from the dishes splashed on the youngster since Chi-Chi didn't bother to dry her hands before smacking him.
The lavender haired chibi plopped down in one of the living room chairs with a triumphant smirk on his face. After all, he took her precious baby's toy and didn't get in trouble for it. But when his eyes fell upon the occupants of the couch he almost wished that he had been hit with the frying pan. At least then he could blame say that the sight before him is a hallucination brought on by the dreaded frying pan.
"Ha! I got it back!" Goten said triumphantly while rubbing his head. When his friend didn't respond, he looked at him and saw that he was staring at something and followed the boy's gaze. "EWWWWW! What are they doing Trunks-kun?"
"It's called sucking face or making out or lip locking." Trunks replied.
"But," Goten scratched his head, "it looks like they're kissing."
"They are kissing."
"Then why didn't you say so?"
"Baka!" Trunks yelled while smacking his friend on the back of the head. "That's what I said."
"Hey! I'm not a baka and don't hit me!"
"You are a baka and I'll hit you whenever I like!" Trunks retorted while smacking the younger boy repeatedly.
"Am not and stop hitting me!"
"Are too and no!"
"No I'm not Trunks! And stop hitting me!"
"Why don't you make me?" The lavender haired kid replied with a smirk since he knows that Goten would not dare fight inside for fear of another run in with his mother's frying pan.
Goten stood there chewing on his lip in deep thought about what to do when Trunks smacked him in the head again. And much to Trunks' surprise, Goten struck back.
The two children started to exchange blows, knocking each other around, and rolling around on the floor. Gohan and Videl were lost in their after dinner make out session and didn't notice the brawling chibis. Not even when a lamp was knocked onto them before shattering on the hard wood floor of the living room did they stop kissing.
Upon hearing the sound of shattering glass the two chibis stopped fighting and sat quietly and played. So that when Chi-Chi stormed into the room a second later they were spared her wrath since, from the position the two teens were in on the couch, it appeared that they were the ones who knocked over the lamp.
Two clangs rang loud and clear in the air as Chi-Chi glared at her son and future daughter-in-law. "Care to explain?" She asked coolly.
"Explain what? And what the hell was that for?" Videl asked while grimacing in pain.
"Yeah, we were only kissing." Gohan added while rubbing his head.
"You two broke the lamp." She replied while nodding towards the shattered remains. "And I want to know what you have to say for yourselves."
"I uh" Gohan said as he realized something. "That's the lamp that was on the table behind the couch."
"I KNOW that. I want tooh. Oh!" The woman said as realization dawned on her as well. If Gohan and Videl had been on the couch then how had they knocked the lamp over in such a way as to have it fall in front of the couch instead of behind it? That left two culprits who froze in fear when Chi-Chi fell silent. The woman could see a few faint scrapes and bruises on their faces from their little scuffle. "You two know better then to fight inside the house!" She yelled while marching towards them.
The two children shot from the room faster then the woman could react. "YOU TWO JUST LOST YOUR DESERT TONIGHT!" She yelled after them.
"NOOOOOOOO!" Came two identical cries a second later.
Gohan and Videl smirked while thinking, 'Served them right.'

"Have you found anything yet?" An angry father growled at the group of police.
All either cringed or gulped at the man. "N-no, not yet Mr. Satan." One brave cop said in a shaky voice.
"What am I paying you people for? I want to know what psycho kidnapped my precious little girl!"
"We k-know you do sir. And we're working on it."
"THEN WHY ARE YOU ALL STANDING AROUND DRINKING COFFEE AND EATING DONUTS?"
"We've been working all day, we need a break." One of the cops, a rather rotund man with a red face, said between gasps of air.
"Break? BREAK? I'll sho-"
"Um, excuse me sir. But" A second cop, much thinner then the other, said timidly.
"What do you want SCRAWNY?"
"Well umfrom what I've seenit looks like Videl ran away."
"WHAT? How dare you suggest such a thing." Hercule yelled before looking at the cop with curiosity in his expression. "Why would my little girl want to run away from her wonderful home?"
The cops glanced around at each other. They had only spent a day with the man and they would be more then happy to never see him again. "We don't know." All of them answered in unison.
~*~
A couple of hours had passed in which time Goten and Trunks had ventured back to the living room. Both sighed in relief when they saw that Gohan and Videl were no longer making out. But quietly watching TV. Videl was leaning against Gohan and one of his arms was draped around her.
"Come on Trunks. I don't want to be in here with the scary lady." Goten whispered to his friend.
"Yeah, she's a real bitch." The lavender haired chibi responded with a word his father unknowingly taught him.
Goten nodded, "Yeah, a real bitch."
Videl overheard him and asked, "WHAT did you just call me?" Her tone was cold and threatening.
Goten and Trunks gulped, they would surely die within the next few minutes. "UmI uh" They stuttered.
"That's what I thought." Videl replied before shrugging. "I can't fault you for that since almost anyone you ask would said it's true."
The two chibis looked at each other in confusion while Gohan and Videl chuckled.
Goten and Trunks blinked in confusion. Why was that funny?
"Why do you two call me 'the scary lady'?" Videl asked a few seconds later.
"Because you're scary." Goten replied.
"No she's not. She's a lovely woman who I love very much." Gohan defend his mate before kissing her.
Again, the two kids looked at each other in horror while thinking, 'I hope they don't start making out again.'
Thankfully, for the two chibis anyway, the kiss only lasted a few seconds.
"Seriously, why do you guys call me 'the scary lady?" Videl asked again.
"Well um" The gears inside Trunks' brain whirred as he tried to think of something. "Because you act like Chi-Chi-san, my mom, and my dad. And you can probably get Gohan to do whatever you want."
The girl's eyes narrowed at Trunks. How dare he compare her to that man! "I do NOT act like VEGETA!"
Gohan gulped and thought, 'Man, I didn't notice it before. But they're right. V-chan does act like Vegeta.'
Unfortunately for him, Videl heard the thought and turned her glare on him. "You have five seconds to punish Goten and Trunks for what they said or I'll punish YOU for that thought."
"Um," the demi-Saiya-jin gulped, "yes dear."
Goten and Trunks looked at each other before darting from the room. Or at least they tried to get away. Gohan's hands were gripped tightly to the shirts of the two children as he dragged them from the room.
"What are you going to do Gohan?" Trunks asked, his voice full of fear.
"Please Nii-chan! We didn't mean it!" Goten pleaded. Unfortunately he was as bad a liar as Gohan so the older demi-Saiya-jin knew that he wasn't telling the truth.
"Sorry squirt. But Videl wants you guys punished and I agree with her." Gohan replied as he dragged them into the kitchen. "Here's you go Kaa-san."
The eyes of the chibis' opened wide in horror. "No! Please Gohan! We didn't mean to call her that!" Goten pleaded.
Chi-Chi's interest was peaked by that. "What did you call Videl?"
Goten and Trunks looked as though they would start crying any second. Neither wanted the woman to find out.
"They called Videl a bitch." Gohan replied before moving to stand in the doorway to watch the action and cut off the chibi's escape route.
Her reaction was delayed. For some reason she couldn't comprehend it all at once. "W-WHAT?"
There it was. The instrument that would surely bring about their destruction. Goten and Trunks eyed the frying pan that materialized in Chi-Chi's hand.
"Hey, I thought I told you to punish them?" Videl whispered into Gohan's ear.
The demi-Saiya-jin felt himself blush lightly. Her breath stirred feelings that he knew he couldn't act on now that their twenty-four hours were almost up.
"Sorry." Videl replied, feeling the results of what she did through their bond.
"It's ok. And Kaa-san can do a lot better job of punishing them then I can."
"Oh." She said before watching the action along with her mate.
"How dare you call her that!" Chi-Chi screeched. "How dare you say such a word!" Her frying pan swung back and forth between the heads of the two little 'demons.' "How dare you insult Gohan's mate and my future daughter-in-law?"
Goten and Trunks froze. Gohan's mate? That meant that Videl was related to Goten. The thought was so odd and disturbing that it overloaded their brains.
The woman stopped hitting them when it seemed like they were no longer feeling it. To see if that was really the case, she slammed her frying pan down on their heads. Nothing happened.
"Those two are weird." Videl said.
"You don't know the half of it." Gohan replied as they went back to watching TV.
Several minutes later Goten and Trunks came into the room. The heads of both chibis were covered in lumps.
"Is it true?" Goten asked. "Are you my Nee-chan now?"
"Yep. I sure am squirt." Videl replied using Gohan's nickname for the kid.
"Yay! I have a Nee-chan now!" Goten yelled happily. Jumping up onto the couch and giving Videl a hug.
Now it was Gohan and Videl's turn to be confused. Before the little tike had run in fear and now he was hugging her.
"UmI thought I was the scary lady?"
"You used to be the scary lady. Now you're my Nee-chan and you're good." Goten responded like it was something everyone should know.
"Well it's about time you figured that out." She replied before smirking at him. "There's just one thing."
"What?" Goten asked.
"This!" Videl put the kid in a headlock and gave him a noogie.
"Hey! Stop it!" Goten said while laughing.
Gohan smiled at them before he saw Trunks standing next to the couch. An unhappy look on his face. "What's the matter Trunks?"
"Huh? Nothing's the matter. Why would you think something's wrong? Just because Goten now has a Nii-chan and a Nee-chan doesn't mean that anything's wrong."
Gohan smirked at him. "You're jealous."
"Wha-I am NOT!"
"What are you to fighting about?" Goten asked.
"Trunks is jealous because you now have a big brother AND a big sister." Videl replied.
The little kid looked at his friend curiously. "You're j-je-jaildus of me?" Gohan and Videl chuckled at his mispronunciation while Goten burst into laughter. "YAY! Trunks-kun is jailbus of ME! Trunks-kun is jailbus of me!" He yelled while hopping off the couch and dancing around his friend.
"I am NOT Goten!" Trunks yelled in reply.
"You're right. You're Trunks, not Goten." Gohan said. Videl giggled at the joke while the lavender haired chibi looked at him oddly.
Goten suddenly stopped dancing. "Nii-chan, what's jailbus mean?"
Gohan and Videl choked back their laughter while Trunks smacked him on the back of the head. "It means thatit means" He scratched his head as he thought about it.
The sight was too much for the teens and they were no longer able to contain their laughter. Both children had made a big show about a word neither even knew the meaning of.
"It's jealous not jailbus." Gohan corrected.
"And it means that Trunks wants something you have." Videl added.
"Oh." Goten replied as Chi-Chi walked into the room.
"What's all the yelling about in here?" The woman asked.
"Trunks is gelldust of me because I got a Nii-chan and Nee-chan." Goten piped up. Gohan and Videl smiled. At least he was closer to the actual sound of the word this time.
"It's jealous dear. And" Before she said anything more, the TV screen caught their attention.
I hope you all like the chapter. I think it this one was more fun to write then the others.
