Just a Little Cut

(part 4)

Rantings: Ugh, I really don't feel like writing right now, but I'm sitting here wasting my weekend waiting for Janine to call from New York and listening to Smooth Criminal. Everybody sing w/ me!!!! Annie are you ok? Are you ok? Yeah, ya'll probably want to ask me that question huh? J Well, my friend and I are not arguing anymore. :-D He called me and we like, screamed at each other until we cleared things up. J If any of these little thingys end up looked like deflected J's to you, I'm sorry. They are supposed to be smiley faces, so use your wonderful imaginations that God blessed you with. J Grrr… Ok, I think it's really odd how I ended my last story and then all the sudden Sept. 11 happens. I feel really listened to. Great…

Chi Chi was let out of the hospital in a week, due to her fast recovery, and her stubbornness to do what the nurses wanted her to. She was driven home by her loving husband, and fell asleep with her son in her lap.

Her eyes opened slowly, trying to distinguish where they were. She felt warm, there was warmth surrounding her and two arms fastened securely around her waist. She felt no danger, and was so comfortable that she didn't want to move. So she laid there and let the memories slowly filter back. The hospital, pain, tree…ugh. Yes I found where I am…unfortunately,' Chi Chi thought as she leaned back into her husband's chest. 'But, wasn't Goku supposed to be at Bulma's? Yes, that's where he was, and then we trained… I wonder how the meeting went? Oh yes, and there are aliens trying to attack us, and Goku said I could fight! I wonder if he'd train me now… no, he probably wouldn't. Oh well, I shall train myself.'

She tried to slide out of bed, but the arms clenched tighter around her. She eventually got herself free, by replacing her body with a pillow, and went outside. 'Ok, lets see what I've got.' She spread her feet apart and began to concentrate. Where is it? Where is it? Power where are you? Ok, past the heart, um… here you are, ok grab hold of it Cheech, there ya go, now pull, pull pull and don't you dare let go. Chi Chi pulled her energy level from its hiding spot. She pulled it upwards, and upwards, and upwards, almost there… and suddenly, it all dropped back to its place as she was lifted off the ground by gentle, but firm strong arms. She sighed, knowing that whatever training session she had planned for today was over. Her husband looked down on her, his eyebrows raised and his head tilted. She looked at him and sighed again. "Chi Chi…" "I know I know, just drag me back inside." Goku carried his wife back inside and tucked her into their bed. "Stay there, we have to talk," he said before leaving the room. Oh no, another talk. This is not turning out to be a good week, no it is not.  Chi Chi sat there for several minutes, thinking about turning on the tv, but deciding against it. She would not be able to concentrate anyways, knowing what was coming up. Chi Chi could hear footsteps bounding up the stairs, right before her son burst into the room. "Mommy!" he cried. He was about to fly into her arms and give her a big hug, but something held him back. Goku looked down at his son, breakfast tray in the other hand. "Gently, Gohan." "Oops, right, sorry." Gohan flew over to his mother, almost looking as if he were afraid to breathe on her. He stared at her for a few seconds, then barreled into his mother wrapping his arms around her. "Mommy!" "Gohan!" Goku sharply scolded while placing the breakfast tray on a bedside table. "Oh, it's okay, Goku, I'm not that badly hurt anymore," Goku looked at his wife.

"Yeah, that's what you said last time."

Chi Chi immediately looked away from her husband and looked down at the little boy in her arms. "How is my precious baby boy today?" "I'm fine mommy! I studied 2 extra chapters just for you, and I made you this!" Gohan pulled out a card that he had cut and pasted together. On the front was a picture of Goku, with his arm wrapped around Chi Chi's shoulders, while Gohan sat on his shoulders. She remembered that picture. That was from the lake, Krillan took that while the other warriors fought. She opened it up to read it. It had letters cut out from blue cardboard paper and taped to the page. It said 'I love you mommy! Love Gohan.' "Awww… thank you sweetheart!" Chi Chi hugged her son, keeping him in the embrace longer so she did not have to face her husband's wrath early. "Ok Gohan," Goku said sternly. "Piccolo is waiting outside for you." Chi Chi looked up at Goku, and reluctantly let her son go. 'Well here goes nothing'

Ravings: sorry it's so short. It's 4:39 Monday morning and I'm leaving for NY in a few hours. I just wanted to get this out just in case I don't have time later. I'm going to be in the Macy's Day Parade! YAY!!! I'm singing corny cheesy Barney songs. 'America sings from the mighty Mississippi, America hears the children call!' Yeah well, just wanted to clue ya'll in. Have all of you read Basic Instinct by Kei? Oh my gosh! That is the bestest story in the whole wide world! EEEE!!!!! Ahem. And did anybody see Reboot Fri? My cable went out and I was very upset. I blessed out the agency on the phone and all 3 of my tvs were fixed within an hour. :-D Do not interfere w/ my television and no one gets hurt. There are some other really good ones that I'll put out later, but I've got no time now. Bye!
