Hello everyone. I really appreciate everyone who's reviewing. Please let me know if the story is getting boring or if changes need to be made. Here is chapter 6. I do not own Dragonball Z.
Last time on The One You Love: Vegeta and Bulma are looking for Trunks. Meanwhile, Goku goes home to ChiChi but ends up in a heated (literally) argument with her. Now he is on the receiving end of a Kamehameha from his loving wife.

The One you Love Ch6
"...MEEEE...HAAA"
"KAMEHAMEHA" quickly countered Goku. However, he was not fast enough and ChiChi's wave started gaining ground on him. "Wow" Goku thought"I never knew she knew how to do the Kamehameha." Then, with a gleam in his eye his thoughts continued "She really is something else. I'm sorry I didn't notice it before."
"You...didn't...NOTICE" ChiChi yelled out, completely taking Goku by surprise, which caused him to relax his wave and was completely overtaken by ChiChi's Kamehameha. He was not badly injured, as he was still standing, but he did have some burn marks. Still, he had lived through worse. But would he live through this?
"Huh...honey..." said a still singed Goku.
"KAAA...MEEE...HAAA..."
(really tired) "oh no...not again..."
"MEEE...HAAA"
This time Goku leapt out of the way of the wave, then used instant transmission to teleport behind ChiChi and held her in a half-nelson hold to get her to calm down.
"GOKU...GOKU...LET...ME...GO"
"Not until you calm down sweetheart."
"Calm down?...CALM DOWN!...Goten is gone you jerk! And all you can think of is training Uub."
Though still holding on to ChiChi, realization hit the small part of Goku's brain that handles actual thought. "Wait...Goten's gone? Where is he"
"I don't know. Now let me go so I can go take care of the son you so casually neglect."
At this comment Goku let go of ChiChi and was in a daze. "Neglect? Goten? No...I...I don't...I don't neglect Goten? Do I"
"Then what do you call going off to train some kid, while you have your son waiting for you at home" ChiChi's voice had softened some when she realized Goku was actually paying attention for once.
"But I...I never thought...Goten never said anything..."
"Maybe not to you, but then again you're never home enough to hear what he has to say, are you"
"..."
"But I do have to listen to him. I know how he feels. But you don't care about him, do you? You don't care about any of us..." at this, ChiChi's eyes started to water.
"...yes, I...I do..."
"NO YOU DON'T. All you ever care about is your stupid fighting. Getting stronger, getting ready for the next chance to fight. What about Gohan, huh? He loves you, but he is thankful that he can be there for Pan like you never were for him. Are you listening to me? YOU WERE NEVER THERE FOR YOUR CHILDREN...OR ME" At this ChiChi breaks down, falls to her knees and cries.
Shutting his eyes for a moment, a tear escapes Goku, the truth of his wife's words hitting home. He slowly approaches her kneeling form "ChiChi...I..."
ChiChi violently swats Goku's hand away "DON'T TOUCH ME...don't touch me...just...just leave...that's what you're good at..." Chichi continues weeping, holding her head in her hands while Goku takes several steps back.
"You...you're saying...you don't love me...anymore..."
Looking up at her husband, ChiChi said "You don't even know what love is Goku. You never did."
"...no...NO...NOOOOOO" Goku shut his eyes, tears rolling down his cheeks, then powered up to Super Saiyan, his aura pushing everything aside, including ChiChi. However, she was strong enough to remain in place.
"See?...even now...you're pushing me away..."
Opening up his tear-filled eyes, Goku looked at his wife and powered down. Then, the mighty Saiyan warrior, who had defeated Frieza, Cooler, and many other powerful enemies, fell to his knees and cried.
Seeing her husband in such a state of disarray, ChiChi looked down and reflected on what she had done. She had broken earth's greatest hero and now he was little more than a quivering mass of flesh. "What have I done"
(Meanwhile, the search for Trunks continues)
"Trunks?...Trunks! Honey, please come home...Trunks?...Trunks! TRUNKS" Bulma called out from her hover car's PA system, while Vegeta flew next to her. "Vegeta, there's no sign of Trunks anywhere. Are you getting anything"
"Would you shut up woman? I'm trying to concentrate"
"Oops. Sorry."
Vegeta thought about his son. With as many warriors as there were on Earth, it was difficult to pinpoint the exact location of a young boy, even one as powerful as Trunks. "He must be suppressing his ki. Either that or he's...unconscious" thought Vegeta as he called out to Bulma. "Let's split up. We'll have a better chance to find him that way."
"Good idea, Vegeta. I'll go East, you go West."
"Right."
"Vegeta..."
"What"
"I love you..."
"...I know..."
With that, both went their separate ways looking for their child.
