Rantings: Ok, after being severely yelled @ I decided to speed up the chapter writing process. :-D I am very sorry that I took so long, but high school isn't easy ya know… Yeah well, this chapter is mainly flashbacks that I've dreamed up during Geometry, (MATH IS EVIL GRRRRRR…) Ahem. Most of these subjects aren't even correct but I wouldn't know. I'm only 16! I don't know what peeps go thro' w/ pregnancies and stuff. Some peeps at my school do but I do not. I had a hard enough time doing this chapter without blushing, so be happy and deal w/ it. And now that I've had my rant, you may read my story…
Disclaimer: I OWN THEM ALL!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHHA!!!!! (Best friend throws shoe) Ow! Ok fine be that way. I own nothing and I am poor. Satisfied?
Chi Chi collapsed at the base of the pond. Her run to the peaceful forest clearing had helped clear her mind some… all she needed was a break. Ever since her back injury it had just been one incident after another and she had had no time to stop and let her brain digest its information. She peeked over into the water, which reflected back her flushed face. She sighed, 'All this worrying is going to give me wrinkles,' she thought to herself. She remembered when she first came up with that quote, when she and Goku were first married and he would train every day and come home scratched up and bruised. That was when she first started wearing makeup. She never used to, being a more of a tomboy than a princess, but she was sure that she would start to look like she was 30 when she turned 20 so she began to use it after the first month of their marriage. Not to mention the morning after their wedding…
"Goku, how am I going to explain this hicky to everyone when they come over?" Chi Chi yelled at her husband who stood shuffling his feet behind her watching his wife dab coverup makeup over the bruising mark on her neck. "I'm sorry Chi, I didn't know it would be that bad… I don't even know why I did that…. I'm so sorry." Chi Chi sighed and put the container down onto her dresser. "It's ok Goku, that's just one heck on a hicky there, I'll just have to find a different dress to wear," Chi Chi looked for longingly at the blue spaghetti strap dress that she put back into her closet, and rummaged around the room until she found a purple dress with yellow frog clips and a high turtleneck. "This will have to do." Goku brightened up at his wife finding a solution to her dilemma. Chi Chi turned around and put her arms around her husband's neck. "I'm not mad at you, just try to be a little more careful next time ok?" Goku nodded and smiled at her as the doorbell rang and their first guest arrived…
Chi Chi smiled at that memory. They were young and didn't know of the problems they would later face. She remembered how shocked she and Goku were when they found out about Saiyan bond. Yet so much more had happened…
Chi Chi walked gracefully around the house, which was more than most women in her condition could do. Being 8 months pregnant she was supposed to stay off her feet, but Chi Chi being the ever active neat freak had to be up and cleaning all the time. Goku constantly scolded her, so she did what she could while he was training. She didn't know what he wanted her to do. Sit there and watch soap operas???? Chi Chi shook her head as she tidied up the Nursery. Soap operas are not my thing, although my life would make a good one, she thought to her herself. She headed down the stairs to wash the floor again as she heard the front door open. Goku! She turned around and started back up the stairs, she didn't move very fast but she could get as far up as she could before her husband found her and decided to give her a lecture. "Chi Chi?" Shoot! She tried to speed up the stairs as she listened to heavy footsteps approaching the bottom of the steps. She turned back to make sure her husband wasn't looking her direction. She quickly turned back as her foot was caught under the step's ledge. She was beginning to fall. She put her hands out, ready to prevent her large stomach from hitting the stairs. She watched helplessly as she dropped towards the uneven surface she cursed being pregnant and all the misfortune that came with it. She wasn't used to being ungraceful and large and… large… She shook her head of these thoughts and watched as her hands gently came to rest on the stair that she was heading towards. She sighed in relief, then wondered why she didn't feel like she was supporting all of her weight. She then felt it, an arm holding her back from around her chest, and another holding her stomach gently. She sighed and turned to look at her savior, who had a worried frown on his face. He picked her up gently, allowing her enough room to breathe with her burden and sat down on their bed, cuddling her to him while rubbing her stomach. "Chi Chi why are you so stubborn?" Chi Chi sighed and looked at the floor. "I… I don't know, Goku." "Sometimes I wish you weren't," Goku continued as if he didn't hear her. "You scare me sometimes, sometimes I feel like I need to give everything up to watch over you, because if I don't, no one else will." Chi Chi's stomach tightened as she rolled her eyes. 'Duh we live in the middle of the forest, who's going to take care of me? The squirrels?' "I can take care of myself…" Chi Chi said stubbornly. "Yes, but you don't make the smartest decisions sometimes." Chi Chi felt like saying speak for yourself, but she passed that on as bad temper that came with changing hormones. Goku began to rub her back which was good because her back really hurt. She hated lectures. She was usually the one to give them out unless her safety was concerned. On that issue, Goku was the master. Ugh, her stomach hurt too much to be listening to this… wait a second… Goku continued to aimlessly drift through colonies of conversation, not noticing that his wife was no longer with him mentally. "Goku?" Chi Chi called out. " …I don't think you coming to help us fight would help either…" "Goku," Chi Chi knew something was definitely wrong. The baby must be coming! "Goku!" "What?" asked the bewildered husband. "I think I need to get to the hospital now…" "Chi Chi, of all the excuses to get out of a lecturing, this has got to be the worst. You're only 8 months, we have one more month to go." Chi Chi started to cry. All these feelings were new to her and she didn't know what was going on. Plus, her husband didn't believe her. "Goku, really, something really hurts. Please, just take me there or I'm going to walk there." Goku stiffened and looked down at her. "You really aren't kidding are you?" "No!" Chi Chi had tears streaming down her face. Goku let the information sink in, sighed to calm himself, then looked at her calmly. "Ok, just breathe deep Chi Chi, we'll be there very soon. Chi Chi closed her eyes, she didn't know how long this labor would take. She had heard that some were long and painful, and with a strong man like Goku being the father, it could take even longer. She knew she wasn't even close to being near the full contractions yet, but it still hurt. "I don't want to be pregnant anymore…" she whispered. "It'll be alright Chi I promise." She opened her eyes as Goku grabbed a suitcase from under their bed. "How long has that been there?" "Since you told me you were pregnant. I wanted to be sure I was ready." "But those clothes have been folded for almost a year, they'll be all wrinkled…"Chi Chi complained as her husband carried her and her suitcase out the door.
Chi Chi blinked back that memory. Her neatness, either a blessing or a curse, she didn't yet know. She skimmed her hand along her reflection in the water. Giving birth itself, was enough to scare her and Goku into abstinence for a while. But after about 4 months, things returned back to normal. Well, as normal as normal can be in her life. She sighed. Now I should think about my life at the present. She slowly tried to straighten out her life mentally, until her brain just screamed at her, I need more time! She sighed and cast her eyes back to the water before hearing a quiet voice. "Chi Chi?"
