Chapter 43

Moray giggled as Cell tried to pretend he was asleep. It wasn't working very well. He had done this before and it didn't work hen, or now. He had been very odd with her lately. He hadn't raged for sex like he used to, and when they did sleep together, he made love to her gently. Although she liked it, it wasn't all. He seemed to make sure she hardly did anything and insisted that she take is easy. He said he was looking out for her, but he was mothering her and she was one day going to find out why. But as for now.

"Cellsy poo? Are you awake my darling?" she chuckled. He was strewn over the bed, a placid look on his perfect face and she tapped her foot in mirth. She then smiled. "Ok, if you want to sleep then fine. I will just have to get rid of all this sexual tension myself in the kitchen." She smirked as one of his eyes flew open. "You are so predictable."

"Only when it comes to you. Now." He sat up, obviously fully alert with one eyebrow raised. "What was that I heard about you having some sexual tension build up? I haven't been neglecting you have I?" when he smirked at her like that, she couldn't help but blush. He knew just how to affect her. It was pathetic really, she chuckled.

"I might have been overlooked recently. With training for Vegeta and all…" she turned, holding her dressing gown tightly in place. this plan would only work if he thought she was wanting his sexual help. "…I hope your not getting more pleasure out of Vegeta than you are me."

"Never. The thought of that is impossible, and disturbing." He said seriously, shacking his head. "Do I really need to prove it to you?" he stood up smoothly, and stalked up behind her. "I will very willingly prove your worth right now if you wish it." His voice sang in her ear softly, making her shiver. She was about to lose her nerve. You have a purpose Moray, stick with it girl.

"Well…I might be persuaded…if…" he grabbed her robes and ripped them off. Underneath she was stood in a short red and white fluffy skirt, a sleeveless skimpy red and white fluffy jacket, her boobs trying to protrude from the top, and her shoes were kinky black leather knee boots with white fluff on the rims. There was even a red hat in her hand.

"I knew you were up to something you sneaky minx."

"Well…you are perfect…but please Cell!" she threw her arms around his neck and wouldn't let go. He was pouting like the cat who had just had the cream wafted under his nose, and then taken away at the last second. "Please, I promised Bulma and Chi Chi that we would be going and."

"And no! I refuse to be degraded into even making an appearance at this human mockery of a holiday!" Cell grabbed her arms and pulled them off. He folded his arms and turned his back to her. She put her red, gloved hands together with white fluffy rims, and begged him.

"Please Cell? It's Christmas and everyone will be there."

"I believe that you are in correct. Christmas is not for another ten days as today is the 15th of December, not the 25th."

"But the Christmas party is today and."

"And I have made my final decision. I will not change my mind." He looked over his shoulder at her. "And you are not going near that group of individuals, especially Yamcha and Tien, dressed like that!"

"I will o however I want to be dressed. Chichi, Bulma, and myself are Santa's little helpers." She waved a finger at him and put on the Santa hat. It fit perfectly over her curly green hair as it cascaded down her pale back. "And I was wear a name badge to say I was 'Cell's little helper'. But your not going…" She sighed, defeated, and walked down the stairs. Cell rolled his eyes and walked after her, only to see an actual badge on the side. She walked into the living room, so he inspected it further. It was a large white rectangular name tag, with white and red fluff attached to it, and the letters Cell's little helper' in big letters. There was even a rather good chibi drawing of Cell and Moray in a love heart underneath it. He looked to the side. There was still the glue and coloured pens on the side. She made this herself. He frowned and placed it on the side. She was so willing to go out, with her love for Cell just about pinned to her chest, and he couldn't even attend a stupid gathering. Cell looked to the living room, and she wasn't there. He picked up the name badge, and walked up the stairs. He found her in the bedroom, unzipping her boots. He walked in, and she looked to him, still bent over. She smiled and looked loving to him, as always. Can't she even be mad at me? "Hay you." She winked at him. "Up for a movie? I heard they have a new selection on the TV for this year."

"You're taking your costume off."

"Yeah. I don't want my buckle belt digging in to your while we snuggle up to the fire now do I?" she chuckled.

"You mean, you not going?" Moray walked over to him and shuck her head.

"What? and leave you out of the fun? You should now by now that there is no fun for me unless I know you are at least trying to have a good time. I wouldn't enjoy myself at the party anyway without you. I'd just keep thinking of you here, alone. And that isn't exactly fair of me to go off and leave you like that now is it." she placed her hands on his chest, and rested her between them. Cell rested one hand on her back, and pulled her closer.

"It isn't exactly fair for me to be a resentful old fool and prevent you from being with your friends and family at a time when your purposely gather, to be, how do you day, merry?"

"I don't mind, really."

"When does the party start?"

"Well, I was planning to set off now. But I can ring Bulma and tell her that-"

"That you will be along shortly." Moray sighed and cupped his face.

"I am not going."

"Fine." He handed her the badge. "Then I will just have to leave without you." He turned his back, smirking as he held one hand up out of sight.

"CELL!" bingo He knew that would happen. Moray swung her arms around his neck and turned him to face her. "You're going?"

"Yes. Even though I feel that the universal worship of an overweight fool who has never heard of a razor, simply for the material appeal of another gift from a store is imbecilic…I will go."

"Oh thank you so much!" Moray kissed him flat on the lips with the big mwa sound as she pulled away. "I will make this up to you." Another hard kiss. "This really means a lot to me." and another one.

"And if you don't stop kissing me like that you will never make it past the bedroom door." He saw her blush and handed her the name tag. "And I expect you to wear this." She pinned it on and jumped at him. her legs wrapped around his waist and her hands rested on his shoulders.

"Let's go!" she cheered.

"Indeed." He ITed over to CC gardens, where there was snow everywhere and Z fighters from every direction chuckled.

Other than Yamcha, who got a nose bleed from just looking a Moray. Cell saw this and shot a mild Ki blast at his feet. Yamcha jumped a mile, and Vegeta laughed.

"Funny thing is, I did the exact same thing when he looked at the woman."

"Ah Vegeta." His eyes went wide as he saw what he was wearing. Blue slacks and a huge light blue woolly shirt with a large Rudolf, big red nose and all on his chest.

"Say one thing about it Android and I will kill you."

"You will have to go through me first Veggie head!" Moray chuckled as she stood between them. Vegeta narrowed his eyes before looking away. Cell chuckled and snaked his arms around her.

"If anyone looks at you in a way I disapprove of, may I kill them?"

"No."

"May I hurt them badly?"

"Nope."

"Slightly?"

"Na a."

"What if I threaten to harm them in a very intimidating way?"

"Erm…"

"I will take that as a yes." He nuzzled her neck and everyone looked at them.

"Androids." Trunks chuckled. "Don't they feel the cold? Everyone else is in layers of clothes, and she can just wear that?" he saw Cell look at him dangerously from across the garden. "Not that there is anything wrong or revealing when what she is wearing he he he…"

The Party went that everyone had to eat (except Moray and Cell who played footsy under the table. Cell refused at first, until Moray slinked her foot between his legs. Then he was game.) Then came the chat over dessert and coffee. (Again, footsy but hands were also added. Then moray tickled Cell in the side, and he forgot everyone was there as he pounced on her, tickling her into submission. This was a highlight of the meal as they got such comments as "He never accepts defeat in anything does he?" and "Young love. I wish they would get a room though.")

And finally, the after drink. All the kids were in bed so the adults came out to play.

"So anyway Moray." Bulma and Chichi walked up to her in identical outfits to hers. "Bulma and I got you a little early Christmas present."

"Really? But I haven't got yours with me yet."

"Don't worry, this isn't the kind of present you give an equivalent back. At least not at my age and I don't think Bulma wants any more-" Bulma nudged her. "Well, I mean here you go."

"Oh, thanks guys." Cell looked inside the box, and smiled.

"I think you can wait for Christmas for this one." Cell took it away from her and smiled. That meant he was either up to something, or he knew something she didn't.

"Why? What's in the box?"

"Somehing we want her to open Cell."

"Alright, but if she faints, I get to take her straight home."

"Alright, but I bet she won't." Bulma smiled. "She is a strong girl." Moray tried to reach for the parcel, but Cell held her in place on his lap and held it out of reach.

"I am willing to bet that she faints."

"Alright, if we are right, you get to baby sit for Vegeta Jr when he is back at school."

"Deal, and when I win, Vegeta loses his GR for an entire month."

"WOMAN! DON'T YOU DARE!"

"Don't worry Vegeta. I know what I am doing. deal."

"Good. here you go Moray." He handed it to her, and she ripped it open. Everyone anticipated something either shocking, or girlie.

But what they saw…

Was a small white blanket with a large C on the front, a little pillow, and a casual for a baby cot. A baby cot…and baby blanket…

"Congratulations my love." Cell held her stomach, and kissed her neck.

"I, I'm, I'm pregnant." For a few moments, her face was blank. The reason Cell had been careful with her lately, coddling her her late period, her dizzy spells everything made sense. But soon enough, she fell backwards into Cell's waiting hands and he lifted her up.

"Vegeta, you just lost your GR for a month." Cell chuckled. And saw Goku look at him with a nod in the corner.

"So your going to be a daddy Cell. Good for you." Cell looked to Moray's peaceful face.

"Yes…this is a good thing…" he then vanished using instant translocation. But he took the capsulated GR with him first.
