Eighteen's face glowed as it never glowed before. She then gave off a smile that seemed to glow as bright as the sun. Then out of instinct she grabbed Krillin and gave him a big hug. She hugged him tighter then she had ever hugged any one before. Tears of joy where falling from her eyes.

"Krillin!" she happy cried. "Oh Krillin I though I lost you!" she cried some more.

Krillin put his arms around her. "Juu-chan, don't cry. I'm here baby. I'm not dead."

Just then the nurse ran in. "Well that's a miracle!" said the nurse "You weren't supposed to wake up."

"What do you mean by that?" said Eighteen as she wiped some of the tears off her face.

"Well young lady," explained the nurse "Your boy friend here was lucky he survived the shot, any one else would have died. But the weird thing is that the people that do survive become vegetables. They stay asleep forever until the die." The nurse then scratched her head. "Only a small amount of people live like he did."

Eighteen's eyes got big as she hugged Krillin tighter.

"I'll go get the doctor. Just to see if you body is still functioning correctly." She then walked out to get the doctor.

Right after the nurse left, Eighteen turned and gave Krillin a long kiss. She then put her head on his shoulder.

"Krillin I just wanted you to hold me. I missed you so much."

Krillin slowly put his arms around her. After every thing he'd been though he was still weak. "Juu-chan, I missed you too. It was a long fight to come back here."

"What do you mean?"

"I had to fight to stay. I was supposed to die. I'm not supposed to be here. But I fought with my entire straight to stay."

"Krillin, don't talk like that." She said as she still had her head on his shoulder.

"It's the truth. When I got shot, I saw darkness fill up my eye sight. Then I heard your voice. I looked over and saw you crying. You told me you couldn't make it with out me. I guess that was my will to live. I lost a couple of times but I made sure to come back."

Eighteen started to kiss him all over the face. "Krillin, why did you come back for me? You could have been living better in the after life instead of living here."

"The after life would have been no good with out you."

Eighteens face soften. "Krillin you would have had every thing better in the after life. I mean to make up for every thing bad here. To make up for your childhood and the way your father treats you."

Krillin smiled. "I know my father doesn't mean to treat me bad. At least that's what I'd like to believe. Juu-chan there's just some thing I've been dying to ask you."

Eighteen looked at him funny. "Well go on."

"Juu-chan, when I was fighting for my life, I knew that I couldn't be there with out you. I knew then and there that I couldn't live with out you. And I know I'm not the smartest or best looking guy around, but well, what I'm trying to say is..................is"

Eighteen was getting nervous. "Krillin what is it?"

He then grabs her hand. "Juu-chan, When I get out of the hospital, and I'm well,.........will..........will............"

Eighteen was getting impatient. "Krillin just spit it out!"

"Juu-chan will you marry me?"

Eighteen's face lit up. "W-what?"

Krillin was getting more nervous. 'Oh no! This question was asked to soon!' "I mean I know, I'm not smart, but I can work things out, I mean if you decide to be with me I promise that I won't let you starve, or be poor, I'll work my butt off to make you happy................."

"Krillin shut up." Said Eighteen as she let go of his hand.

"Oh ah ok." Krillin felt bad. 'She let go of my hand. She doesn't want to marry me.'

Eighteen stopped to think 'He wants to marry me? He can't live with out me?'

Eighteen felt weird. She looked up at Krillin. She saw how nervous he was and saw him put his head down. 'I love him, I've never felt this way about any one.'

"Yes."

Krillin looked up. "What?"

"Yes. Yes Krillin I'll marry you." She then hugged him.

Krillin then let off a big smile. "R-really? You're not kidding?"

"Krillin would I kid about this?" she then kissed his head. She then moved his head over to hers and gave him a long kiss. "Krillin I love you. Yes I will marry you!"

Krillin's face lit up as bright a he could. "Juu-chan, you have just made me feel like the luckiest man alive!"

A long while later........

School was almost out, and it was time for the seniors to move on with there lives. It was about 3 days until they were to graduate. The gang was sitting together for the last time at there favorite spot. Krillin wasn't in school, he was still in the hospital. Krillin couldn't graduate any way because he didn't have all the classes that he needed. The only one who knew was Eighteen.

Goku had his arms around ChiChi. "Can't believe we're leaving in 3 days. Goodbye easy life, hello real word." Said Goku

Vegeta snickered. "That would be hard for you Mr. Game boy. The rest of us have been living in the real word."

"Oh shut your trap Vegeta." Said Bulma as she hit him. "I'm not ready for the real word ether."

"Neither am I." said ChiChi

"I am." Said Tien standing a little proudly. "I already got a job in the advertisement industry. I'm going to help make bill boards for Freeways."

"That's my man." Said Lunch as she grabbed on to his arm.

"Really? Asked Vegeta. "How the hell did you get a job like that?"

"I worked my butt of for it. It's just a job I have for now. I'm going to move into the big times later."

"Sounds great." Said Yamcha holding his head. "I just have a stupid job at a coffee shop. Because of my reputation of a 'rapist', no job will take me in. Stupid Krillin."

"What was that?" yelled Eighteen. "If I recall you were going to rape that girl if it wasn't for Krillin!"

Yamcha gave off a glare. "Well where's Krillin now? If I heard correctly he can't graduate!"

Everyone looked at Yamcha weirdly. "What was that Yamcha?" asked Bulma "Krillin can't graduate?"

"Nope. He's too dumb!"

"He is not!" yelled Eighteen "Krillin is smart he just can't graduate because he doesn't have that many credits to graduate."

"Naw I'm with Yamcha on this one." Said Vegeta "He's still in classes that he should have finished his freshmen year."

Eighteen was giving him glares. "That's because his dad doesn't have the money to pay for his school. He's never here."

"Quit making up excuses for your ex boyfriend." Said Yamcha. "Get over him already. I got over Maron easy."

'That's right. They still think that Krillin and I are still broken up.' Though Eighteen

"That's because you just wanted her for the sex." Said Chaozu. "You never loved any one your whole life!"

Yamcha gave Chaozu a glare. "Shut up shrimp! I know you haven't gotten any your whole life."

Chaozu then blushed. "Actually I have."

"Chaozu!" yelled Tien "You're not going to tell them are you?"

"What?" said Vegeta as he turned to them. "Chaozu you're not a virgin?"

Chaozu looked down. "No. I lost it to a girl I though was cute."

After he said that every one looked at him funny. 'Eww, who on earth would have sex with that little guy?' though almost every one.

"Chaozu! I though you said you'd never say any thing about this!" yelled Tien as he got mad and walked off.

Lunch then hit Chaozu over the head. "You ass! Look what you've done now!" then Lunch ran off to fallow Tien.

"What's wrong with Tien?" asked ChiChi

Chaozu then felt bad. He put his head down on his lap. "I shouldn't have said any thing!"

"Chaozu it's ok." Said Goku

"Who the hell did you have sex with?" said Vegeta

"I can't say."

"Tell us you little fart!" said Yamcha.

"You guys don't do this to him!" yelled Bulma as she hit Vegeta over the head.

Chaozu couldn't take it. "It was Kushami!" he blurted out.

Every one's jaw dropped. "What?" yelled Eighteen. "When did this happen?"

"When she broke up with Tien."

"But Lunch was still with Tien!" said Goku "So technically, she was cheating on him!"

"Chaozu how could you?" said Yamcha. Just then Bulma hit his head

"Oh shut up Yamcha. You cheated on me lost of times." Said Bulma

"But I never had sex with any one while I was still with you!"

Chaozu wanted to cry. "I didn't mean to! It just happened! I didn't think it was wrong! I thought I loved her she seemed to love me, she wanted me, and it happened!"

"It's ok Chaozu." Said Goku. "It's hard for two best friends to love the same woman." She stopped to think. "Or one of her two personalities."

ChiChi then gave Chaozu a hug. "How did Tien find out?"

"Kushami. She just wanted to have sex with me. She told him that she did it with me and that I was good. Tien got pissed off at me and for a while we weren't talking."

"Well this is all fine and dandy, but this talk is making me sick." Said Vegeta. "I mean the though of Chaozu ever having sex is as sick as Nappa and Raditz having sex in the band room!" Vegeta made a face. "The thought of that just makes me want to throw up!"

"Oh didn't you hear?" said Eighteen. "That rumor was true. They had sex right on your tenors."

"WHAT?" he yelled "I just played that thing this morning!" Vegeta then covered his mouth and ran off to throw up.

Goku looked at Eighteen. "Is that true?"

Eighteen Laughed. "No I just made it up."

Bulma then laughed. "Eighteen, you sly fox! I can't say he didn't deserver it though. Well back to Chaozu," Bulma then turned to him "You'll find some one for you. I know Kushami may have seemed to be the one, but she's Tien's girl and who knows. Maybe she'll come back."

Chaozu sighed. "She's not the one. Lunch is head over heals for him. Kushami just had sex with me to get back at Tien."

"Get back at him for what?" asked Yamcha

"She thought that Tien liked Lunch more then her."

Yamcha made a face. "There the same person!!"

"They don't know that!"

"Damn. I better not fall for a girl like that." Said Yamcha "Then again, the sex would be a lot more fun with two of the same girl."

"Oh Yamcha shut the hell up! You'll be lucky if you really end up with a girl." Said Bulma as she glared at him.

ChiChi looked at Chaozu. "Don't worry Chaozu. Things will get better."

Chaozu smiled at all of them. "Thanks guys. I'm going to go see how Tien is doing." He then got up and walked over to where Tien ran off.

"Dang those three or should I say 4, have big problems." Said Yamcha.

"Yeah but there smart enough to get through them." Said Goku. "So Eighteen, how is my buddy Krillin doing?"

"He's doing great. He mite get out of the hospital Thursday morning."

"That's great to hear." Said ChiChi "I feel really bad about the fact that he can't graduate with us."

"It will be ok." Said Eighteen "He doesn't mind it too much. He said he'd still find a way to provide for me."

"What?" said Yamcha as he turned his head. "Why would he need to provide for you?"

Eighteen then covered her mouth. "Oops I shouldn't have said any thing, forget that I said that!"

"Eighteen what did you mean by that?" asked Bulma with a smile growing on her face. "Did Krillin..........................................."

With out even saying the rest of the sentence, Eighteen shook her head yes. Bulma then screamed out of joy.

"OH MY KAMI!!! Eighteen I'm so happy for you!!!"

ChiChi looked at them a little funny. "Are you guy's ok?"

Bulma turned to her and said "Krillin did it!"

"You mean he.........................................."

"YES!"

"OH MY KAMI!!! Eighteen your so lucky! I wish you all the happiness in the world!"

Goku and Yamcha just stared at each other weirdly. "What the heck are they talking about?" asked Yamcha.

"Got me!" said Goku just as confused.

ChiChi turned to them. "You guys are all alike. Krillin did the thing that all men want to do with the women they love!"

"You guys had hot wild sex?" asked Yamcha with a weird look on his face.

Bulma made a face. "Not what you would want! What other men would do to prove there love to them, to prove that they want them and only them for the rest of there lives."

"Krillin ate you out?" asked Goku.

Every one then looked at Goku funny. "What the heck?" asked Eighteen "Where did you get that idea? I can hear that coming from Yamcha but from you?"

"Well that's what I did to ChiChi to prove to her that I loved her and wanted her for the rest of my life."

Every one stared wide eyed. ChiChi's face then blushed redder then it had ever been before.

"What?" said Goku "We made it fair. She gave me head three days before so I did that to make it fair....................................."

"GOKU SHUT UP!" yelled ChiChi with her face still redder then red.

"Wow Goku." Said Yamcha. "I didn't know you had the balls to do that but I guess ChiChi would know huh? No wonder you're wiped!"

Yamcha was then slapped in the face by ChiChi. "Shut up dick!" she then turned to Goku. "Goku why did you say that! That was to be a secret remember?!"

Goku then remembered. "Oh I'm sorry ChiChi! I just forgot..................."

She then slapped Goku in the face. "Krillin asked Eighteen to be his wife! You're an idiot I hate you Goku!"

She then ran off and cried. Goku then ran after her.

"Wow. Goku and ChiChi are wild with each other! I never would have though of that!" Yamcha then remember what ChiChi just said. "WAIT? You and Krillin are going to get married?!?"

Eighteen then rolled her eyes. "Took you that long?"

Yamcha then felt a little discussed. "You'll marry that freak over me? You too aren't even together any more!"

"Yes we are. We just did it in secret to keep it from my brother."

"Dang! This sucks!!!" Yamcha then got up and started to walk off.

Eighteen and Bulma just sat there. "Well looks like every one left for on reason or another." Said Bulma. She then turned to Eighteen. "Well I'm for one happy that you two are going to tie the knot."

"Thanks Bulma I needed that. Just a quick question, what's up with you and Vegeta? Did you guys resolve any thing?"

"Yeah, where together again." Said Bulma. "I love him and he loves me. I hope we end up getting married some day. Come on, lets go see if he threw up a shoe yet."

The both of them then walked off to find Vegeta.

Meanwhile Krillin was in the hospital bed, watching TV. 'Man this is dull. I can't wait until I get out.'

Just then there was a knock on the door. Krillin turned his head and saw Master Roshi walking in the front door. "Hey."

"Hey Master Roshi, How's the shop."

"The shop is fine. Not the same with out you though." Said Roshi as he sat next to Krillin. "Oh yes I have this for you."

He took an envelope out from his pocket and gave it to Krillin.

"What's this?"

"It's from some one who stopped by the shop a while ago. A person who had been looking for you a long time."

Krillin gave him a weird look. He then opened the envelope and saw that it was a card. It read:

To My Brave Son

"SON?" yelled Krillin. He turned to Roshi, "You mean my mother gave this to you?!?"

Roshi nodded his head yes. Krillin went back to reading his card.

My dearest son Krillin,

I know what you're thinking. "Where have you been?" or "Why did you leave out of my life?" Well considering the circumstances, I had to leave. I'm been getting the rest of my life together. I had to forget about you, but I didn't want to. So I never really did. I'm living with my husband now up in the hills. You have a step brother named Cert and step sister named Kerri. Krillin you've become a grown man and I'm sorry I didn't get to see you grow. I'm sorry I had to put you though this. You're in high school now and you should be graduating soon. I wrote you this card to tell you that I do love you. And no matter what you decide to do in life, I'm proud of you! You're my first child, my baby boy. I love you Krillin.

Love,

Kate Julio (mom)

P.S Tell you father that I said hello. I hope he got on with the rest of his life.

Krillin felt a tear coming down his cheek. He then wiped it off and put the card back into the envelope.

"Krillin are you going to be alright?" said Roshi

"I'm going to be fine." Said Krillin as he sniffed "I though my mom never cared about me. I though she wanted me out of her life. How did she look?"

Roshi smiled. "She looked good. She didn't look as old as your father, that's for sure. She looked years younger." He then laughed. "She didn't have a nose ether."

Krillin laughed back. "How did she find me?"

"She looked your father up. She talked to your father and he told her that you where working my place. She then just gave me this card to give to you. She said it would be hard for her to see you after all these years." Roshi then looked to his side. "Sad thing is I don't even know if she knows what you look like. You could have been in the shop with me and she wouldn't have even known. That's why she wanted me to give you the card."

Krillin signed. "At least I know she cares for me, and that she thinks about me." He then wiped his face off of his tears. "Thanks for bringing me this Master Roshi."

"Any time my boy. Any time."

Back at the school Tien just sat there at the end of the school depressed. "How could the two off them go though with that?' though Tien. "I mean Kushami broke up with me, but how could Tien do this!"

Just then Lunch ran to him. "Honey, are you ok?"

"Does it look like I am?" said Tien harshly.

She kissed his cheek. Tien then turned away. "I don't need this right now."

Lunch's face saddened. "Tien what did I do?"

"I just need to be alone right now ok!" he then walked off. Lunch was about to cry when she felt a sneeze coming on. He then sneezed and turned into Kushami.

"Hey Tien!" she yelled "Where you going?"

Tien turned and yelled "Leave me alone!"

Kushami gave him a bad stare. "What's his problem?"

She then got up and walked off in the other direction. As she was walking she ran into Chaozu.

Chaozu was sad as well. He looked up and saw Kushami and got nervous. He was about to walk off too until Kushami called his name.

"Chaozu! What's wrong with Tien?"

Chaozu froze. "Tien is having flashbacks to when we where together for that one day."

Kushami smiled. "Oh yeah, that one night we got together, I remember that. Good times." She then stopped at looked at Chaozu starting to cry.

"Chaozu what's wrong?"

"What's wrong?!? You used me for sex that's what's wrong!"

Kushami now knew that Chaozu wasn't kidding around. "Chaozu I didn't use you just for sex."

"Yes, you did! I gave my-self away to you and you used me to get back at my best friend. I don't know why I did it!"

Kushami sat down next to him. "Chaozu I didn't mean to hurt your feelings. I'm sorry but I love Tien and I always will. I didn't mean to hurt you." She smiled. "If it makes you feel any better, you're great in bed."

Chaozu smiled a bit. "Really?"

"Yep, Who ever you falls for you is in for a real treat."

Chaozu looked up at her. "Well, I guess that mean me feel a little better."

"Come on. Let's go find Tien again and try to cheer him up."

They both got up and started to walk off to find Tien. As they walked off they passed ChiChi sitting on a bench.

ChiChi was also by her self crying. Goku saw her and walked up to her right behind her. Some how she knew it was him a hit him in the side.

"Ouch!" yelled Goku "Why did you him me?"

She then turned to Goku. "Goku! Why did you tell them that?"

"I'm sorry! It just slipped!"

"Stuff like that doesn't just "slip." Why did you say it?"

"Honey, I don't know! I just said it!"

He then bent down and when right next to her. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean too. I kind of wanted them to know what we do. I'm sorry honey for embarrassing you like that."

ChiChi turned to look at him. She could tell in his eyes that he wasn't lying. She then kissed his cheek. "Goku, just next time we do some thing private, Keep it private!"

He blushed a bit. "Yes honey."

Later on around 9:30 pm at the hospital, Krillin was falling asleep in his hospital bed. 'I haven't seen Juu-chan all day and visiting hours are almost over.'

He then yawned. 'Well I guess I should go to bed then.' Just as he started to lie down he heard, the door knock. He jumped up a bit to see Eighteen standing at the door.

"Hey baby." Said Krillin "Where have you been?"

"I'm sorry honey." Said Eighteen "I was to busy working on stuff for graduation." She then kissed Krillin on the fore head. "So any thing happen today?"

Krillin smiled. "As a matter of fact yes, Master Roshi came by today."

"Really, what did he want?"

"He gave me this." He then showed her the card.

Eighteen looked at it and read it. "This is from your mother!"

Krillin nodded his head and smiled. "Yep, my mother was thinking about me."

"Did she know that you're in the hospital?"

"I don't think so. She said she lives in the hills so I don't think she knows what goes around here." Krillin then laid down. "That card made my day."

"Happy to hear that Krillin." She Eighteen as she sat right next to him. "Well school was interesting."

"What happened today?"

"Well every one knows that you're not graduating with us, apparently Kushami was cheating on Tien with Chaozu, ChiChi and Goku are wild with each other, and every one knows that you and I are getting married."

Krillin looked at her wide eyed. "You said that all so calmly."

"I've had a lot of time to get over it today."

After a while Krillin and Eighteen talked over every thing, and visiting hours were just about over.

"So every one knows that were going to get married?" sad Krillin sadly.

"Yes, what's wrong about that?"

"I wanted to be there when you said it."

She then kissed him. "I'm sorry I didn't know. I'll see you tomorrow Krillin." She then started to walk out the door. "Bye Krillin."

"bye Juu-chan."

Eighteen then walked out the door and out of the hospital. Krillin leaned back on his bed and sighed. 'I'm no good for her. Maybe I shouldn't get married to her. I mean I'm not even graduating from High school. She can get along with out me.' He sighed again.

"I'll think about it more in the morning." He then closed his eyes and went to sleep.
