Nine reviews since I updated! I'm now at 92, just 8 more, and I'll reach
the 100 mark!!! You guys are all great, and I hope this is enough for you.
I've had writers block, and I spent HOURS working on this chapter, so I
hope it isn't too short.
E-Chan: Yes, they are going to have to talk about things sometime.
Vashfan: Of course I'm gonna keep writing!
Lady Sakura-Chan: I hope this came soon enough for you!
Nisha: I don't think it's a waste of time to re-read fics, I do it all the time! I was just amazed you find my fic good enough to that.
Passing Girl: He won't do that, he's too busy trying to get her to stop hating him.
Lady Athena 12: Thankies for the review, and that is what everyone wants.
Gip-K: Near improvement, Yeah, I guess you could say that.
Gohan's Onna: I've been up readin your stuff too. (And that was on school nights. Oh, I'm a bad girl.)
Goku's POV
After a couple of hours of fishing, I had enough for both ChiChi and myself. Five big fish, really a successful fishing trip. But, I hadn't managed to think of how I could get ChiChi to not hate me any more. For now I guess I'll just have to try to be nice to her, hopefully that'll help.
So, I started walking home, carrying the five huge fish all the way. As I walked I saw a lot of animals, as I always do, but it was weird, they were all looking at me funny. I don't get why, they've seen me with fish before. Some of them even seemed worried, and started biting my pants trying to take me somewhere.
Then I smelled something. familiar. It was smoke, and that meant fire. I looked toward the house, which wasn't too far away now, and there was smoke coming from the windows!
I dropped the fish and ran to the house, immediately looking for the source of the fire. It wasn't in the living room, but I could smell it in the kitchen, so I ran in there, and saw that the stove, and the wall behind it on fire. I also saw ChiChi, asleep at the table.
Cursing, I took off my shirt and started beating the fire with it, luckily, the kind of cloth my gi is made of isn't easily flammable, it only took me a few minutes to get the fire off of the wall, and for the stove I managed to fill a big glass of water and put it out.
I couldn't believe ChiChi had fallen asleep while she had apparently been cooking, and hadn't even woken up when the fire had started! The wall was definitely going to need some fixing, and we'd probably need some new cooking stuff. But it wasn't something that mattered now, ChiChi was still sleeping at the table.
So I went over to her, and very carefully picked her up. She sighed as she put her head against my chest, and I started to go toward our room. I noticed what I had been too worried to notice earlier, the house was clean. ChiChi hadn't just picked up, but she had swept and mopped the floors, cleaned the windows. everything looked perfect.
Maybe she had tired herself out. but ChiChi never got tired that easy, so what had happened? I wanted to ask her, but it seems more important. I went into our room, the room I hadn't gone into since the day she left. Even this room had been cleaned.
I loved being able to hold her, but if she woke up in my arms, I doubt she would be very happy, so I had to set her down on the bed. But as I tried to pull my arm out from under her, she grabbed me. Now what was I going to do? If I forced myself out of her grip, then she would wake up.
I didn't have much of a choice, so I stayed there, with ChiChi grabbing my arm. At least I had an excuse, if she got mad I could just tell her what happened. So until then, I would get to enjoy being with her sleeping figure. She was still beautiful, just as beautiful as I had remembered. She did look tired though, she light purple circles under her eyes, and her hair was a mess. She had her hair up too, why was it up? She had always looked so beautiful with it down. My hand, my free hand, seemed to itch, wanting to take out the rubber band that kept her hair up. I couldn't help it, I let her hair go loose, helped it go around her angelic face.
It's been too long since I've seen her sleep. I can remember doing this on a regular basis before she left. I loved to watch her sleep, especially after we had made love. Or I had thought we had made love. She had always looked so peaceful after sex, so content. There were times I would want to wake her up just to enjoy her again.
I was getting uncomfortable standing there bent over with her on my arm, so I managed to lie beside her, still watching her. She seemed to smile in her sleep, which only got me to smile as well. I wanted her, here and now, but it was the last thing she would want, so I used what self-control I had to not wake her and start trying to love her.
Not that she could actually stop me if I decided I didn't care if I raped her, she was strong, but I know I'm stronger. But I could never do a thing like that, it was wrong, and she would probably hate me for it afterward.
However, I couldn't help myself as I leaned toward her, and lightly kissed her cheek.
ChiChi's POV
When I had walked inside and saw the mess that had been my home, I knew I wouldn't have any piece until it was cleaned up. I could only wonder what Goku had been doing in this place to put it in this state. There was even a faint smell of champagne, the kind that I had with dinner occasionally, before my pregnancy. I cleaned, and started cooking. Fish alone wouldn't be able to satisfy my Goku, so I searched the cabinets and used what I could find. There hadn't been much, but there was a bag of rice and some carrots and peas. I put it all together, and then put in some soy sauce, Goku's favorite. Or, one of his favorites anyway.
Then I continued to clean, and once I was done, I sat at the dinner table, and lay my head down, wanting to rest my eyes. Cleaning had taken a lot out of me, especially scrubbing the floor.
That was the last thing I could remember, and when I opened my eyes, I found I was no longer at the table, but in bed. Not only was I in bed, but Goku was with me! What had been going on?
Goku seemed to be asleep, smiling as he was. I nearly chuckled, since he was probably dreaming about food. That's what he normally dreams about, he even mumbles in his sleep sometimes. It is because of this I know he's afraid of broccoli, and loves just about everything else.
Why were we in bed together? His arm was even under me, and my hair was down around my face. Had we done something that I just don't remember?
Of course not, I chastised myself. Goku didn't want me in the first place, why would he want me when I was as big as a house? And if anything had happened, there was no way I would forget.
I looked out the window, and saw that it was dark. How long had I slept? What the hell had happened to dinner?
I got up carefully, so as not to awaken the sleeping man, and went to the kitchen, I almost fell over when I saw it. The wall was completely black, as well as the stove and pots. Had Goku blasted the thing or something? I'm really confused now, and I sat down in the chair I had apparently fallen asleep in. I was so confused I just didn't know what I should do.
I know Goku wouldn't blow up food, it was too much of a waste. So, maybe it caught fir when I fell asleep?
That must be it, I'm so stupid, the whole house could have burnt down! It's a good thing Goku got here before too much damage could be done. Yet. with the danger gone, why had he been with her, in bed? And why was her hair down? I distinctly remember having it up earlier to keep it out of my face while I worked.
They was nothing I could do now, since it was night, and Goku was sleeping. There would be no way that I'll get any kind of answer until morning. But what do I do until then? I couldn't exactly go get back into bed with Goku.
Or could I?
He had been the one to put me in there, and lay down with me. So if I just got back in, then he would be none the wiser. But should I actually do it? I could just lay down on the couch.
Then again, that wasn't a good idea for a pregnant woman. It could hurt my back or something. So, I guess I may as well go get in bed, besides, it's an excuse to get close to Goku. Another opportunity like this may not arise for a long time, maybe ever.
So I quietly went to back to the room, where Goku now lay on his side, his back facing my side of the bed. I won't really have an excuse to cuddle, which is probably a good thing. It's one thing to be in the same bed as him, it's another to touch him while in the same bed.
So I tiptoed to the bed, and got in slowly as to not move the bed around too much. The bed was definitely comfortable, and I could smell Goku from where I was on the bed. I had missed that smell, I thought smiling. It was like food and sweat. It was him.
I closed my eyes, but they opened wide in surprise when I felt a sudden warmth. Goku had moved right behind me, and put his arm around my waist. Goku's head was even next to mine, and I felt his warm breath coming down on the back of my neck. Now I was stuck, but I couldn't complain, I wanted this too badly.
Just to be held by him makes me feel somewhat wanted again, and for a while, I let myself forget reality, and enjoy the feel of being close to him again.
So, did Ya'll like it? I hope so, because I did work hard on this.
I know there was no real interaction between Goku and ChiChi, but I'm working up to it, just wait until they wake up, and Goku realizes his arm isn't under her, but around her. What do you think will happen? And they're gonna have to talk about the divorce thing sometime, they still haven't actually done it. Now they've been married so long, it would be a divorce instead of an annulment. So, let me know your predictions if you want, because I've started planning the next chapter. Then you can see if your right!
E-Chan: Yes, they are going to have to talk about things sometime.
