And I

The rays of the sun barely rose over the hills. Chi-Chi lye in her bed sleepy ever so peacefully in her bed. The rays and warmness of the sun did not wake her, but a tap from her window did. She opens her eyes and blinks. It was sunrise. She sat up and yawned. She looked at her window as another tap was heard. She stood up slowly and walked toward the window and opened it. She wasn't sure who would dare do it especially if a guard would have caught them.

She looked down not expecting it to be Goku none the less. She had a very confused look across her face. "Can I help you Goku?" she asked loud enough so he would hear and no one else would.

He grinned. "Come Princess there is something I would like to show you," he stated.

'What in the hell?' she thought. She smiled. "I'll be right down." She closed her window and locked it. She ran to her closet and slipped regular clothes Bulma had snuck for her. Just jeans and a shirt; her father would not approve, but would not tell her to change.

She opened the doors to her room and stepped out closing them behind her silently. She sighed and walked down the halls cautiously.

Once she reached the back doorway of the palace she stepped outside and headed to the front. Whatever Goku was planning to show her must have been nice or important to bother her, she didn't mind though.

Goku grinned as he saw her come around the corner. "Princess," he said bowing.

She smiled and bowed her head. She didn't have a dress to curtsey in. "Goku." She knew people would not like the idea of her bowing her head for a commoner, but did she care? Hell no, she didn't care what they thought.

"Ready?" He asked.

She nodded. "One question, where are we going?" she asked raising a brow. She looked him up and down trying to find a simple clue, but found none.

"It's a surprise and if I told you it wouldn't be," he stated, "but the only way to get there faster than two hours is to fly and for that I must carry you. If that bothers you we could find a ride, but you won't be back by late afternoon."

She smiled. "I do not mind as long as you don't drop me," she proclaimed.

He nodded and gently picked her up and took off into the air to head to the surprise. Chi-Chi blushed a bit, but shook it off and watched the ground below them.

Fifteen minutes later Goku slowed down and headed towards the ground. He landed in an area surrounded by trees. He gently let her go so she could stand.

"Is this it?" she asked looking at him.

"No, it's just a little walk, two minutes tops," he answered. She nodded and they started walking.

The sound of laughter and friendly screams of joy was heard. She looked at him questionably. "What is going on?" she asked.

He smiled and helped her up a little cliff and showed her a beautiful waterfall and a pond beneath it. The area was surrounded with trees full of fruit. She smiled as she noticed that their friends were there, goofing off. She walked forward and Bulma turned and noticed her, smiling. All of them were wearing swimsuits, well all except Goku and Chi-Chi.

Bulma stood up and walked to Chi-Chi. She hugged her friend and giggled. "About time he got you. So ready to swim?" Bulma asked.

Chi-Chi's smile turned into a disappointed frown. "I didn't bring one. I did not know we were going to swim today Bulma."

Bulma smiled. "You're going to love me even more. I knew you won't cause we set this up before I even left so when I spent the night I took one of yours," she stated.

Chi-Chi hit Bulma in the arm. "Hand it here," she ordered.

"It's a cute one too," Bulma walked away smiling still. She dug into her little gym bag and tossed a swimsuit to Chi-Chi.

Chi-Chi looked at Bulma. "This isn't mine," she stated.

Bulma smirked. "Glad that you noticed, you have no bikinis so I gave you one of mine that I decided I never wanted cause I found a better one."

Chi-Chi looked down at the green bikini then looked at the one Bulma was wearing; of course it was red. She rolled her eyes. She knew her friend would rather wear red over green, but that was stupid. "Where do I change?"

Eighteen looked at her. "Behind the bush," she answered pointing at one near a huge tree. "No worries we won't creep up behind you."

Goku walked in the other direction to change into his. "I'll be back," he stated.

Krillin laid down on the grass and sighed. "This is perfect, nice choosing," he said smiling.

"Thanks," Bulma said smiling, "but Goku found it and I thought we should come here for this."

Eighteen rolled her eyes. "He meant Goku," she hissed. "Where's Yamcha? He was suppose to show his ass awhile ago."

"The fuck we should know, no one has a tracker on him, no body would," Bulma snapped. "He's probably working or getting out of this, his loss."

Krillin chuckled. "No he probably lost his way here or something," he implied.

Goku came back from changing and looked at him. "Do you really think that he would miss this on purpose?" he questioned raising a brow.

"Well duh, I'm here and the loser is still upset about me dumping him. Well my father found out I was even going out with him after we broke up and trust me it was not pretty what my father said or did," Bulma blabbed.

Goku sat down and chuckled. "Okay, but I don't think that he'll not want to see you, but heh I'm just saying not for sure or anything," he proclaimed.

Chi-Chi came back while glaring at Bulma then sitting down next to Eighteen and Bulma. "So what else are we going to do?" she asked.

"Have a picnic!"

They turned around to see a girl and a boy their age. The girl had dark blue hair and dark blue eyes. The boy was tall and bald and had three eyes.

"Launch! Tien! You made it!" Krillin shouted with joy.

The two of them nodded and sat a basket down. Chi-Chi smiled and looked everyone over; this is the kind of friends she needed and if she got married to a stuck up prince he wouldn't let her see them or maybe he would. She would never not want to see them or be apart they were all close.

Bulma opened the basket and dug out a sandwich. "Launch's specialty," she said smiling. She giggled and took a bite out of it.

Chi-Chi looked in and grabbed one too. "Thanks. These are always the best you have to give my cooks the recipe." She took a bite and smiled.

Krillin stood up. "I'll eat later right now it's time for a swim, what do you say Eighteen?" he asked looking down at the blonde woman.

She smirked and stood up. "So I can dunk you and see you squirm, sounds fun," she stated.

"Wait you can't do that," Krillin protested holding his broken arm.

"I can to," Eighteen stated chasing Krillin as they both ran into the pond.

Bulma giggled and looked at Chi-Chi. "So who was the prince? Don't say you don't know cause I saw him run out of town crying. Turned him down too?" she asked.

Chi-Chi nodded. "He was a spoiled brat and thirty, he was a pain and insulted the cooking at the palace, he drove me crazy," she stated closing her eyes and munching on her sandwich.

Goku grabbed one and ate it whole. "I guess you really shouldn't except nothing else from them," he mumbled.

"Jeez Goku how can you do that?" Bulma asked taking a small bite of hers. "I mean yeah I've seen you do it, tons of times, but I'm still curious."

Goku looked at her. "I really don't know. I just like eating, I guess," he answered. "It's been this way since I was little. Didn't you already ask this?"

"Probably," Bulma said.

Chi-Chi nibbled on her sandwich and shook her head. "I feel bad for your grandpa, he must have had to cook a lot, jeez poor man," she commented.

"Come on now, let's leave Goku and his eating habits alone," Launch giggled. "We all know the poor guy eats and eats, but he also works hard too."

Tien grabbed a sandwich. "So Goku have you heard the news?" he asked.

Goku looked at him and took another sandwich. "What news? I haven't really heard anything that I didn't know already," he stated.

Tien grumbled. "Damn it, no body knows anything, maybe something isn't happening," he mumbled.

Chi-Chi looked at Tien. "You got a point, my father said we are having a dinner party with someone," she stated.

Bulma finished her sandwich. "But then you should know, I mean you have to if you want to be happy at the dinner or be miserable," she blabbed.

Launch took a bite of hers. "Well maybe not, maybe it's a surprise the king does like doing those kind of things you know," she implied.

Eighteen came back out of the pond and dragged Krillin behind her. She smirked and dropped him and sat down. She grabbed a sandwich and started eating. "I warned him, but does he listen, no. Does anything go through his very bald head?" she asked.

Chi-Chi giggled. "Stop being so mean to him Eighteen, it's not nice, how would you like it?" she questioned. "Plus he has a broken arm that's not fair to him."

"It was never fair to him. Eighteen could always kick his little ass," Bulma proclaimed. "But you know what I think it's the bomb that she's the way she is. You give females a good name Eighteen."

Eighteen smirked. "I do my part, but it's just too easy beating his ass over and over again," she bragged.

Goku chuckled and took another sandwich. "Well you can't beat me that's for sure," he stated.

"Someone's sounding cocky," Launch teased.

Eighteen looked at him. "Why do you think that I can't? Is it because you're taller than Krillin? Got more muscle than Krillin? And a better fighter than…"

Krillin cut her off. "That's enough dissing me now." He as he covered her mouth then released it. "I get enough comments on my arm thank you."

"She didn't mean to hurt your feelings Krillin," Chi-Chi proclaimed.

"Even if she was telling the truth about everything," Bulma beamed. "About Goku being a better fighter and all, oh and the height thing so true buddy."

"Bulma!" Chi-Chi snapped. She looked at Krillin. "You know not to listen to her, she's crazy."

Bulma stuck her tongue out. "Sorry for lying down the facts Chi."

Goku stood up. "Sorry Eighteen I just have more strength than you," he stated, "but I do admit that you are strong."

Bulma raised an eyebrow. "Is it because she's a woman?" she asked.

Goku shook his head. "Not at all, it's because I've had more years in experience with fighting and that I train more often."

Eighteen stood up and smirked. "Fine, but I must warn you to watch your back from now on," she stated sending chills down everyone's spine.

"Okay now that's finish, let's go have some fun, eh?" Launch asked.

They all nodded and raced to the water. Splashing, pulling, tripping, pushing, and chasing each other.

After they settled down (ten minutes later)

Bulma and Chi-Chi were sitting on a rock above the waterfall looking down at their friends. Bulma looked at Chi-Chi. "This is great, isn't it?" she asked looking back down.

Chi-Chi nodded. "I don't want any of this to change. This life I have right now I wouldn't change for anything, well except all the annoying princes and dukes. I wish that we could do this every week or at least every other week," she proclaimed.

Bulma smiled. "Maybe we can do that." She looked down at her hands. "Truthfully I'm not suppose to be here or anywhere around you guys. I'm not allowed to go to the palace either."

Chi-Chi looked at her. "Why? I don't get it your father used to be cool with this kind of stuff, but since your last trip he's changed."

Bulma rubbed her arms. "Yeah," was all she said.

Chi-Chi raised an eyebrow. "Is there something you're not telling me Bulma?" she asked. "You sound so…out of it."

Bulma smiled closing her eyes. "I'm with my friends, I'm fine." She stood up and dived off of the cliff by the waterfall and into the pound.

Chi-Chi stood up. 'What's wrong with you Bulma?' She thought. She heard rustling behind her. She turned around to see Goku by the bush. "Hey."

He grinned. "Hi. You and Bulma chit-chatting?" he asked sitting on the rock.

"We were she just jumped." She looked at him and smiled. "Thanks again for bringing me here Goku. It's very nice."

"I'm glad that you like it. I could bring you here more often if you like," he proclaimed. "You know where to find me."

She smiled and offered him her hand. "Want to join me? I feel like diving right now," she stated.

He nodded and stood up. He smirked. "But I have another idea of diving." He quickly picked her up.

"Goku? Goku what are you doing?" Chi-Chi asked. Before she could get an answer Goku jumped off of the cliff her in his arms. She screamed and wrapped her arms around his neck.

They hit the water with a big splash. Bulma screamed moving out of the way and started giggling.

Chi-Chi came back up and growled. She looked around the pond. "Once I get my hands on you Goku, you are so going to get it!" she screamed. She was pulled underneath of the water. She opened her eyes underneath just to see Goku wave at her then he rose to the surface. She growled making air escaped then went to the surface as well.

Goku started swimming to the back of the falls.

Bulma giggled more as she watched her best friend chase after him. "Go get him girl!" she shouted.

Chi-Chi kept her pace. 'You're dead once I get my hands on you, buddy-boy. Oh you'll get it.' She thought. She watched him swim under the falls. She stopped and looked back at Krillin. "Where is he going?" she asked.

"There's a cave in there!" Krillin shouted out her answer.

"Oh," Chi-Chi mumbled under her breath. She stroked again and smirked. Victory would be hers.

She swam under the falls and popped back up. She looked around and there was a small cave type thing back there. She started walking through the shallow water. 'How weird.' She looked around. Yep her friends defiantly hanged back here. There were all kinds of stuff like it was a clubhouse.

She spotted Goku on a bean-chair. "Well, well, look who gave up," she teased.

He looked at her. "So you found me?"

She smiled and sat down on another bean-chair. "This is nice," she proclaimed

"Bulma and Launch's idea," Goku stated.

"Figures," she mumbled. "So was that your great idea? To hide and run?"

Goku looked at her and grabbed a soda from a cooler. "Nope my master plan was to jump off the cliff scaring you."

"You didn't scare me, I was shocked," she proclaimed.

He handed her a soda and opened his. "Whatever you say."

"Cheers." She said as they tapped cans. "This is really cool."

"I usually come here twice or three times a week," he stated.

"Fun," she said looking at him.

"No, no, no I was right!" Bulma and Krillin came walking in Eighteen following behind them.

"Hey," Eighteen said sitting on the couch that was in there. "Ah this is the life."

Bulma smiled and sat down by her. "Yeah. How about we all run away and get out of this place? See the world and what's out there. I mean come on, I've only seen bits and pieces, but we all should," she blabbed.

"What are you blabbing about?" Tien asked as he and Launch entered.

"Getting away from this place," Bulma answered.

"I can't, because of my duty," Chi-Chi mocked. "This is so stupid, I want to see the world too, but no I have to be a princess. Why couldn't Father have had another daughter before me?"

"Oh well it's too late for that," Eighteen stated.

Chi-Chi nodded. "Yeah I know."

"Maybe we could make a wish on the Dragonballs," Bulma suggested.

"The what?" Launch asked.

"It's a myth I heard in a city I visited," Bulma stated. "There's these seven magic balls and if you get them all you can make a wish, anything that you want."

Chi-Chi looked at her. "Anything you want?" she asked.

Bulma nodded. "You just have to gather all seven balls that are scattered across Earth," she stated.

"Well there goes that idea," Krillin mumbled. "That would take forever."

Bulma looked at her hands. "Sorry thought it could work."

Chi-Chi smiled. "It's okay B. I guess I really don't need anything anyway, what about you guys?"

"Nope I got everything I could ever want," Krillin stated.

"I'm good," Eighteen stated.

"Me too," proclaimed Launch.

"Maybe money, but other than that what else should I want, I got it all here," Tien stated.

"Very sweet Tien," Eighteen said rolling her eyes.

Chi-Chi looked at Bulma. "Your next, do you want anything?"

Bulma stood up. "I need…I need…I need…nothing. I got…it all too," she answered. She smiled and sat down going into deep thought.

"I got everything I could ever want, but one thing and I don't think seven balls can change that," Goku stated.

Chi-Chi looked at him. "Oh…well you never know."

Bulma leaned back. "There is just one thing I would want too," she proclaimed.

Chi-Chi looked at her. "What? What could you possibly want?" she asked.

"A good man," Bulma answered.

Her friends in the room fell back in their seats anime style.

"Smooth Bulma, smooth," Chi-Chi teased looking at her friend. "A good man? Should have known, should have known." She shook her head.

Bulma looked at the entrance of the cave. "Yeah."

Goku shook himself. "Anyone else ready to go back and swim?" he asked. "Or eat?"

Krillin chuckled. "We'll join you, come on guys." They all left the cave and went back to their activities.

Goku's P.O.V

He sat eating another sandwich all in the while watching Chi-Chi goof around with Bulma and Eighteen. He chewed and swallowed the sighed.

"You okay dude?" Krillin asked taking a bite out of his sandwich.

"Yeah, I'm fine," Goku answered. He looked at Krillin. "It's just hard you know."

Krillin raised and eyebrow and chuckled. "Sorry dude, but I don't know, I have no idea what you are talking about, mind sharing?"

Goku looked the ground. "Nah it's nothing," he stated.

"You sure? You seem a little off," Krillin proclaimed.

"Yeah I'm sure," Goku answered grinning. "So what should we do after we're done eating?"

"Don't care," Krillin stated. "I want to know what's eating you. You're not telling me something. I'd like to know, you're being like Bulma right now, denying everything."

Goku raised an eyebrow. "What? What do you mean?"

"I mean there's something wrong with you two and you're not sharing it," he stated.

"No we're not," Goku protested. "And plus there is nothing that could bug her as much as there is bugging me. It's probably more problems with dad."

"So there is something bugging you. You just said it and I quote 'there is nothing that could bug as much as there is bugging me'. So what is it? We're friends, I promise I won't tell," Krillin crossed his heart.

"Promise you won't tell what?" Eighteen asked sitting down by Krillin. She looked at Goku. "Something wrong tough guy?"

"No there is nothing wrong, I swear guys," Goku proclaimed. "I'm serious, there is nothing bothering me now, (mumbles) at the moment."

Eighteen leans back against a log. "I know what Bulma means when she said she needs a good man," she stated.

Krillin looked at her. "That's suppose to reflect back at me, wasn't it?" he asked.

"No, no not at all," Eighteen stated.

"Sorry to tell you this Krillin, but that was reflected back to you and don't even deny Eighteen," Goku protested.

Eighteen mumbled. "Whatever."

Krillin shook his head. "Well I shouldn't be insulted since we really haven't officially been dating," he whispered to Goku.

"What?" Goku asked.

"Well I never asked her and she didn't ask me, it just happened, you know?" Krillin blabbed.

"You're starting to sound like Bulma, but anyway. You love her you said so yourself," Goku muttered.

"Sush!" Krillin shouted in Goku's ear. "I know I said that, but she doesn't know."

"You still haven't told her?" Goku questioned.

Krillin shook his head. "But you know, it's just like a crush, I mean it was only one kiss," he whispered.

Goku grabbed his head. "Stop confusing me."

Eighteen looked at them. "What are you two whispering about?" she asked.

"Nothing," they both answered.

Chi-Chi's P.O.V

Bulma looked at Chi-Chi who was busy looking back at the three troopers eating. "If you want to watch something watch Tien and Launch chase each other." She looked at the couple. "Love sick fools."

"I thought you wanted to fall in love?" Chi-Chi asked looking back at her friend with a questioning look.

Bulma looked her. "Love? Hmm, what's the use? I mean I'm basically going to have to marry a bastard," she stated shrugging.

"You and me both," Chi-Chi sighed. "It would be nice to though. Just think, walks at sunset on the beach, romantic dinners…"

"Love making," Bulma giggled.

Chi-Chi rolled her eyes. "My point is it would be great to know what's it's like, my father was lucky," she stated.

Bulma nodded. "Mine wasn't," she mumbled.

"What?" Chi-Chi asked.

"Nothing, you wouldn't get it," Bulma said in a depressed state.

Chi-Chi looked back at the three dinners. "I mean come on I would die to know what it feels like, even if it's for one day or even in a dream," she proclaimed.

"Yeah," Bulma replied." One thing is for sure though, we won't be virgins all our lives."

Chi-Chi slapped her forehead. "Unwanted pictures B!"

"Sorry," Bulma mumbled. "But you know it's true. If we get married it's gonna happen, that's why I need to find a man soon so I won't have to give it away to the man I marry cause it most likely will be a duke and the thought of that being my first is a nightmare."

Chi-Chi shook her head. "That's why you need a man? Ha you're crazy B, really crazy. I wish I didn't have to marry by my father's choosing," she mumbled.

"Ah ha! There is something you want! I knew it!" Bulma boasted.

"What? What are you talking about?" Chi-Chi asked looking at her friend.

"You do want something! The Dragonballs might be able to grant that wish! You might not have to marry a man of your father's picking!" Bulma shouted.

Chi-Chi smiled, but it quickly turned into a frown. "Like Krillin said it's a waste of time, it would take to gather all seven and by then I'll be married," she slumped.

Bulma blabbed with her lips and dropped on the ground crossing her legs. "It's not fair! Why can't we do this one thing for you," she pouted. "You don't want to marry those goof-heads right?"

"Of course not," Chi-Chi said shocked. "If I could choose I'd probably marry a commoner."

Bulma looked at her. "Why?"

"I don't know, just most of them you can trust," Chi-Chi stated.

"Could you trust them enough to tell them your dreams? Your desires?" Bulma asked raising an eyebrow.

Chi-Chi looked at the sky. "Yes I could, I've already told the ones I trust, don't you trust them?" she asked mocking Bulma with raising her eyebrow.

Bulma smiled. "I trust them, but I've known them forever," she stated. "I just wanted to be treated the way I want to."

"Me too," Chi-Chi agreed nodding. "I know my perfect someone is out there somewhere and he's waiting for me, I just know he is."

Bulma giggled. "Mine too. He's probably searching the stars for me," she bragged.

"Whatever, I doubt that, who would want you?" Chi-Chi teased.

Bulma giggled again then sighed. "Maybe I am better off with Yamcha until my father chooses."

"Maybe," Chi-Chi replied, "but then again."

"But then again, what if he isn't my someone, I know, I know, but Chi-Chi, I won't ever be with my someone unless I start searching now and never come back until I do," Bulma proclaimed.

Chi-Chi stood up straight. "Isn't it you that tells me let them come to you? Let them beg their way in till they give up everything they have just so you know they love you that much? Don't you say you need a good man every ten minutes? Am I supposed to give up just because you say yours isn't out there? Are you just going to sit around and marry a man that will treat you like shit? Am I gonna be one those queens that has an affair with this hot hero that kills my husband who had an affair with my sister? Didn't you use that line on me? Aren't you the crazy friend that always uses the dumb accuses about guys? Well hello Bulma isn't that you?" she asked.

Bulma smiled. "That would be me, but I don't have the life that you do. I'm the one that should feel sorry. You have to rule a kingdom with a dingle-dork by your side."

Chi-Chi smiled. "Well at least I don't have weird fantasies. I still say you should get some help," she teased.

"Like you don't dream about some guy sweeping you off your feet then making sweet love to you, come on, I know you can't be the innocent not to," Bulma blabbed.

Chi-Chi shook her head. "Whatever B, whatever."

That night
(Chi-Chi's dream)

Chi-Chi leaned against her balcony watching the full moon. There was something about the full moon that made her feel safer than usual, but she didn't know why. As she stared at the moon's beauty and the starts surrounding it something crossed the sky.

She turned around and walked back into her room locking the windows. She walked over to her bed and crawled into it lying on her side. She was halfway asleep when her windows opened by the wind. She sat up and looked at the window. A shadow walked in and looked at her. She smiled and stood up.

He walked over to her and fiercely kissed her lips. Chi-Chi kissed back leaning into his arms. He gently picked her up and carried her to her bed and continued kissing her.


Sorry guys you'll have to you use imagination on this. Fanfiction rules, you know them. I don't want this story to go off.


End

Chi-Chi opened her eyes and cursed. "Way to go Bulma." She sat up and looked around her dark room. She touched her lips. The kisses he gave her in the dream were so soft and gently same as his touch. She laid back down. She wanted to know why it was him that haunted her mind.

There you go chapter four. Sorry again, but you know the rules or I would have, plus I'm not really good with lemons. Hoped you enjoyed.
