I really REALLY am truly sorry for not updating in a LONG while. I've been suffering from MASSIVE writer's block. I've been updating my other stories in hopes of trying to get rid of it. It's partially gone...but...hopefully it won't affect me too bad. I only hope that this chapter turns out at least okay. lol. Well, on with the show...
That night, Chi Chi had a hard time getting to sleep. Just the thought of know that Inuyasha was out there running around kept her on edge. She didn't know where he was, and that unnerved her to no end. She looked at the red numbers from her digital clock, 2:30 a.m. She really should get some sleep, but for some reason, her body just wouldn't comply. She let out an exasperated sigh. She couldn't wait until all this was done and over with. Her friends and family have been through too much, and it was all because of her. Because of who and what she was. Half vampire, half angel. It used to be thought as just a legend of such a half-breed to exsist. But, looks like legend turned to fact. She was here, and she hated it. She just wanted to live a normal life, a life with Gohan and Goku. That wasn't too much to ask, was it? She stood up and opened her balcony doors, a warm breeze flowed around her. Chi Chi closed her eyes as she let the night was over her like a blanket. She felt so at ease out here, under the moonlight. She walked over to the railing and leaned her arms on it, and looked down at the garden below. The Sakura blossoms were in full bloom. That was her favorite tree in her mother's garden. Not just the fact that it was the only tree in it, but because of the wonderful flowers it gave birth to.
"Hey."
Chi Chi quickly whirled around to meet a pair of innocent onyx depths. She immediately relaxed when she saw his smiling face. She walked over to Goku and wrapped her petit arms around his waist, as he held her close to him. He rested his chin on top of her head. He had longed to hold Chi Chi like this in such a long time. His heart ached for her desperately. And once this all of this was good and done, he would be able to hold her like this for all eternity. That made his heart jump for joy. A strange feeling for a vampire such as himself to have, but, at the same time he liked this feeling. He would embrace this feeling with open arms. He just wanted this whole ordeal with Inuyasha to be overwith. She had suffered too much, he just wanted her to be happy. To be able to smile freely. That smile that he had fell in love with, well, one of the many things about her that he fell in love with.
"I missed you," Chi Chi said after a long silence.
"And I missed you."
Chi Chi broke away slitely, just enough to look up at him. Goku looked into her eyes deeply and could see her concern and despaire. His heart sank. He didn't like seeing her in such a state.
"Chi Chi, this will all be over soon."
"I know. But, I just feel that I've put you and everyone else in so much danger."
"Chi Chi, I've told you already. I would do anything for you. I'm doing all this because I love you. You know that."
"I know, but-"
"No buts. I don't want to hear it. We will defeat Inuyasha, everyone will be at peace again, and you will be my wife."
Chi Chi looked back up at Goku with a shocked expression. Had he said what she thought he said? Were her ears deceiving her? Apparently not by the smile that was placed upon his handsome face. He really was. He really is going to marry her. She could feel her heart about ready to burst out of her chest and do summersaults right on the balcony ledge. She was just so overjoyed. And, just to confirm her thoughts, he did the one thing that she wouldn't have expected, least not in a time like this. He gently broke from her embrace and kneeled in front of her on one knee. He reached into his pant pocket and pulled out an antic ring, a silver ring with a a small sapphire heart in the center.
"Chi Chi, I want you to marry me...please?"
She could see his face growing a bright red. Yet, he seemed to calm about it. Guess even the toughest and strongest warriors get flustered at least once. And right now, she could kind of understand why. Without hestitation, or a second thought, she threw her arms around his neck. The act caught him off guard and caused the two to go tumbling back. He couldn't help but let out a small laugh. She gave his a quick kiss out of her act of utter enjoyment.
"Yes! Of course I will!"
"I'm glad to hear it," Goku said as he gently slipped the ring on her delicate finger. "Perfect fit."
"It's beautiful. I love it. I love you."
"I love you more than you'll ever know, Chi Chi. And I'm glad you like it. It was my mother's."
"I love it. But, I'd have to say that I love you more, and always will."
Goku wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her closer to him. If he were to die right now, he sure as hell would die a happy man. Everything was going well, and he knew, deep in his heart that they were going to defeat Inuyasha. They would defeat him, and live a normal and happy life. First, they would just need to get some sign as to were his location is. Goku looked down at the woman in his arms to see that sleep had finally claimed her. A small smile graced his face as he moved a few midnight locks from her face. He carefully picked her up bridal style and carried her back into her bedroom, gently placing her on her queen sized bed. He stood, and was about to take his leave, when he felt a petit hand grab his wrist. He looked back at Chi Chi with her sleepy eyes cracked open.
"Chi Chi, you need to rest."
"I want you to stay with me."
Goku gave a small nod as he smiled down at her. He crawled into the bed next to her and wrapped his strong arms around her small waist, pulling her close to his heart. Chi Chi gave a content sigh as she let sleep claim her once more. She felt safe and secure in his arms. Like nothing in the universe could harm them. She never felt this feeling around anyone, except him.
A/N: I appologize once again for not updating in a while. I'll try and update more frequently now that my writer's block is slowly starting to go away. But...I know it's not much, but I just felt like I should add a little fluffy scene to the story. Hope you all likes. I'll try and get the next chapter up sometime soon. So, take care everyone!
