"Wow Videl…She is so beautiful…"
"Thanks you guys."
Gohan smiled as he held his new daughter in his arms and all his friends and family gazed down at her happily.
The nurse smiled from the end of Videl's bed and nodded.
"Now all the family have seen it, I think it's best to give the new mother some rest. You may wait in the waiting room for her to wake up or you can go home. She should be out soon."
The crowd nodded and walked out slowly. Gohan smiled at Videl and rested his new daughter in the crib next to her bed.
"What about a name?"
"Pan."
"Pan?"
"Yes."
"That's nice."
"I thought you'd think so."
Gohan beamed happily and kissed her lightly on the cheek.
"You should get some sleep now. You must be exhausted."
"You know something? I really am not that tired."
"That's because you're my wife. You're strong."
"Well, I wouldn't let you marry any old girl."
Gohan chuckled and sat down on the side of the bed.
"I can't believe we have had this baby."
"Well, you didn't think we would go through our whole lives without any children did you?"
"Well, it's not like I haven't thought about it, but I never thought it would actually happen."
"Are you glad it has?"
"Of course I am. No amount of times I have been happy can compare to this. I am so happy. For both of us. For Pan."
"So you have absolutely no regrets?"
"Not one. Do you?"
"No. I think it's perfect."
She looked up as there was a knock at the door.
"Come in."
She smiled as Bulma poked her head round the door again.
"Hey Videl, Trunks has just turned up and would like to see the baby. Is it ok?"
"Sure it is."
Bulma turned to her son who was standing outside the door.
"Now don't spend too long ok? Videl needs her rest."
"Ok mom."
Trunks shut the door behind him and smiled at them.
"Hey guys."
Gohan stood up and walked to ruffle his hair.
"Hey Trunks."
He looked over at the small pink crib beside Videl's bed.
"Is that the baby?"
"Sure is."
"Can I have a look?"
"Of course."
Trunks walked cautiously over to the side of the crib. Videl smiled as he placed his hands on the side of it and bent over to look at her.
"It is a girl right?"
"Yes Trunks."
He stared at her a few more moments before reaching a hand in and running finger along a small cheek.
"She is really beautiful Videl. You guys sure are lucky."
"Thanks Trunks."
"Can I hold her?"
Videl looked up at Gohan with a look of uncertainty, but Gohan nodded his head comfortingly.
"Sure you can Trunks, but you know, be careful."
"I will be."
Trunks reached in with shaky hands and picked up the small bundle in his arms. The baby fit perfectly in his arms.
"She's a lot prettier than Bra was when she was born. Maybe we could exchange them?"
Videl and Gohan laughed happily. Gohan placed a hand on his shoulder.
"Trunks, you should be happy that you have a sister who loves you as much as Bra does. Not many sister's look up to their big brothers the way she does."
"I guess so…What's her name?"
"Pan."
"Pan…That's pretty."
"Thanks. It was Videl's idea."
"Yeah…"
Trunks stared down at the baby in his arms as a small smile appeared on his features. Videl yawned and stretched her arms. Gohan reached out for his daughter and Trunks just stared at her.
"Come on Trunks, I think we all need some rest."
Trunks pulled away from Gohan as he reached for the baby and placed the baby in the cot himself.
"Thanks for letting me see her. Congratulations."
"Thanks."
Gohan watched as Trunks left the room smiling brightly. As the door shut he shook his head.
"What was up with Trunks? I've known him my whole life and I've never seen him act stranger."
"Honey, he just saw a baby. It's a big deal. He's probably fantasising about the future. It would make any person act strangely."
"I guess so…"
Later that night. CC
Bulma sighed happily as she snuggled up to Vegeta on the couch.
"Wasn't Videl and Gohan's baby adorable Vegeta?"
"Adorable does not register with a Saiyen."
"Oh right. Does cute register?"
"Possibly."
"Good. Don't you think Pan was cute?"
"No. I think she was ugly."
"Well you would."
Bulma smiled and rolled over so she was on top of him and had her elbows resting on his chest while she rested her head in her hands.
"But I'm being serious. Don't you think she was pretty?"
"She was ok. But our brat is better."
"You would say that. Everything that is yours is better than anybody else's."
"Of course it is."
"I was thinking though, having Trunks and Bra was so wonderful, and they have both turned out wonderfully…But Trunks is getting older and having his own life, Bra must be lonely…"
"What are you saying?"
"I'm saying…why don't we try for another?"
Vegeta sat up quickly and caught Bulma's arm as she was about to fall off of him. She sat cautiously on the couch and ventured to look in his eyes. They were cold and hard.
"What?"
"Are you serious?"
"Well, why not?"
"Because I do not want another that's why not."
"But Vegeta, we never officially decided we weren't going to have any more children."
"Well, I'm decided now. No more brats."
"But why Vegeta? Why don't you want any more children? It's not like you do anything with them when they're babies. I'm the one that has to do everything for them."
"Don't get me onto the subject now woman. I am making the decision for both of us. No more!"
Bulma stared after him as he stood up angrily and stormed out of the room.
She yelled angrily and buried her head a cushion as tears fell from her eyes.
"He'll be the death of me…"
