Chapter 5:
The blizzard outside was nothing compared to the blizzard of emotion raging within him. All his life he had been well behaved, done as was asked of him: studied the way they wanted him too and what they wanted him to study, ate, spoke, dressed and walked how they wanted him to, led the path they guided him down. And now after eighteen years of loyalty to them he can't go down one little path of his own choice. There was nothing wrong with Chichi, sure she wasn't a Sayain and she was a servant, she had no land, little money and a small home but Kakarott didn't want a mate that could only offer him what he already had.
Chichi gave him something more, she gave him everything she had from the very little home she had to the love in her heart and nothing, absolutely nothing could compare to that. She was everything that he could ever dream of, she had been since he laid eyes on her for the first time, always to this day reminding him of the Angels in the stories his Mother told him as a young child.
His door rattled as someone knocked rapidly upon the solid oak, he knew who it was, even if he couldn't sense their Ki it was pretty obvious anyway. He was still angry at them and didn't especially want to talk to them at this moment, to be honest he wasn't sure when he next wanted to speak to them. But still they ignored the hint and entered into his room.
And that's how she found him, sat on the window ledge staring out at the gardens below him, she shouldn't have entered an ignored knock proved that he still wasn't planning on talking to them, but she had to try, she wouldn't sleep tonight if she hadn't made up with him at least a little.
"Kakarott honey. I need to talk to you, it is important we get this sorted." Her eyes were soft, eyebrows curved with the worry and sadness that she held inside, eyes still glittering greatly as they were still filled with the next wave of tears.
"You only want to sort out what's best for you and who get what land, it doesn't matter what i want or say, it has to be yours and Fathers way!" Kakarott wasn't aware of how much his words sliced through his mothers heart, so much anger and hatred dripping of his every word that it made her want to scream in agony but he was still angry and her youngest temper was and always had been something you didn't enjoy messing with.
"Honey we always thought of you..."
"No you didn't, i always do what you want me to do, i mean sure i don't mind the job selection so much in fact i rather enjoy it but making us choose who we mate with it's unfair." The same feelings were staining his words.
"Yes i know honey it isn't fair but we only wanted you to have someone who could guide you along and give you strong children, live along side you in your own home" Her voice remained soft and compassionate.
"Why can't i choose that person, i mean this girl is amazing and she isn't anything your gunna expect but she will guide me and give me strong children if we have any and i would be a very happy man if we could live along side each other" His voice had calmed down, soft and calm and he had turned to look at his Mother.
"Kakarott sweetie I know, it's just we wanted to make sure that you were making a right choice and i know mating amongst Sayains is very hard to control so we should have expected this i suppose but you Father is right, that you are at that age where certain women do seem more appealing to you" His glare met her and she knew she was treading on thin ice" But if you have mated and this is the choice you have made then there is in truth nothing we can do about it and i look forward to meeting the young Sayain"
Many thoughts had passed through his mind at the last sentence, glad that they finally accepted them as a couple or well at least his Mother did but maybe was the time to tell them she was a human whilst times were still rough then things could heal together instead of shattering the ice once it had frozen over.
"Um she isn't a Sayain" His forehead was sweating, palms sticky from nervousness, he wasn't expecting a happy reaction and he sure didn't get one, he didn't get much of a reaction at all to begin with. Tannupa stood staring at him, her face emotionless her eyes unblinking but he could see the shock slowly filling up her eyes.
"So she's a human? Kakarott like I said there is nothing we can do now but honestly what is wrong with a Sayain girl?" His Mother's voice was tired and she practically groaned the last sentence.
"I didn't say there was anything wrong with a Sayain girl its just that i fell in love with a Human girl" He was quick to reply, knowing that his Mother was rather upset at his choice in mate to begin with and probably more so now, he heard her sigh loudly as she left the room, slowly making her way back to whatever it is she needed to do.
She walked quickly down the corridors searching for him, today had been a long and strange day, and she was tired and wanted an explanation from him. As was usual of her day she had been cleaning and dusting the many fireplaces of the Mansion, her troubles had started whilst she was cleaning the huge fireplace in her Master and Mistress's room, the room was freezing and she was out of coal and wood, whilst she had cleaned she had sent two new servants to get the fuel for the fire, they were young, sisters and needed a lot more experience and had been assigned to her care for the day, by the time they had returned Chichi had managed to clean not only the fireplace but many of the wooden cabinets in the room. She was furious at them, they had taken nearly three times longer than they needed to, she expected gossip amongst the servants that were around her age maybe a little younger but not from two girls aged eight and nine.
Flashback
The two girls returned, baskets of fuel in their hands and some on their back
"What took you two so long" She was furious, how was she supposed to get the fire up and running and the room warm by the time she needed it to. "Honestly girls you should be ashamed and if you two can't work with quality and efficiency together we shall have to separate you!"
"NO, please Miss Chichi we did get the stuff didn't we and we got distracted on the way here" The two girls screamed in unison, shaking their head wildly, their eyes pleading forgiveness.
"Oh really, well distraction isn't tolerated girls! And what was so distracting that you felt you could waste MY time dawdling?"
"It is a good reason Miss, honestly" The younger of the two spat out quickly "See we had got the wood already and was comin back here when we heard Master Bardock and Kakarott arguing, they were shouting really loudly"
"It's Mr. Kakarott or Master you choose but always address him by his title. What exactly were they arguing about? Do you know?"
"Yess'm. They was arguing about some girl Master Kakarott met. Master Bardock wasn't very happy I think and Kakarott…um Master Kakarott said he loved her and all this other ewwie stuff." Both girls had proud smiles on their face, knowing that Miss Chichi was interested in their discovery. And so she allowed the two girls to get on with other work.
End Flashback
She was angry, so confused and so upset with him. He obviously knew full well that he wasn't to do what he did with her but he did anyway, he took her heart, her body and her soul even though he knew that them being together would never be accepted by his family. And it wasn't like she was jumping to conclusions the story the two girls had given her had also been told to her with more detail by Leila who was Tanuupa's personal slave and had heard nearly everything. And now Kakarott had a lot of explaining to do for himself, how could he do this?
His day had been slow, boring and not very fun. He'd had arguments with his parents and after sorting it out with them his siblings didn't help his temper and attitude very much: Radditz had a go at him for loitering; Clapurnia had a go at him for meditating in her art room and Koln beat him for reading her diary but he didn't know it was her diary it wasn't labeled and she left it lying around. So now he was in a monumentally bad mood and lastly it wasn't helping any that Chichi, his angel, the one who he had hoped would make it all better was stood in front of him now her eyes alive with anger and sorrow, fists clenched tightly together and cheeks slightly flushed, today really wasn't getting any better.
"You shouldn't have done it to me Kakarott; you knew no one would want it so why did you risk it. They're all right; you do belong with someone better, a rich, powerful Sayain Princess who can give you more, a good life, more money and land and pure breed children. Kakarott you've been the kindest of your family to me and I never would have guessed we would do what we did and as much as I enjoyed it and I love you I think we need to stop, that way we don't disappoint those around us." Her last sentence came out as a whining groan as she tried desperately to contain her tears and now that she had said what she needed to she let them fall.
Instantly he wrapped his arms around her, protecting her and most of her trying to comfort her shaking body, he was shocked at her words and very much felt like crying himself, she was the most important of anything in his life and he would surrender everything to keep her. His hands stroked the small of her back, his nose buried in his own comfort of her sweet smelling hair.
"Chichi please, yes I knew but I loved you so much I didn't care. You said I was kindest to you well there was more than kindness behind my actions, I knew I liked you from the very moment I laid eyes on you, at first I just tried to ignore it, I tried hiding it and it all led to the same thing, it all led to stronger feelings for you my Angel. I don't care what others have to say, I don't care what they think but I do care about us, I did what I did with you for a reason. I love you! And I don't want a woman who can give me what I already have, I have enough money, land and power as it is, I really don't need anymore. Do you understand my love? Please don't end this, please; you really don't know how important you are to me"
His eyes stared deeply into hers, gently wiping the tears from her soft face allowing her time to think, hoping that he had erased her anger, her worry and her doubts; hoping that she would continue what they had.
She let the words sink in, surprised that the almighty Sayain in front of her was so close to pleading and begging with her. Happy that she finally knew he hadn't done it to play with her or hurt her but because he was willing to risk it all for her. His hands gently caressed her cheeks and she smiled warmly at him, pleased that the clammy pain she felt in her chest and throat had gone. Standing on tip toes she lent up to him. Her lips pressed gently against his, her hands going to his neck, they stood there for what felt like eternity holding the one they loved close, their lips moving passionately against the others. Pulling back to breath she looked at him, he really was so hansom, a small smile cast upon his lips igniting more beauty around him; he really was too good to be true and he had chosen her, a simple servant in his home with nothing more to give him than the love in her heart and that was enough for him, he asked for nothing more, he asked for nothing else, he just took what was handed to him and was grateful, and that made her love him even more.
Wahoo! That's that chapter done. Thanks again for all your reviews. Hope you enjoy it and as usual please r&r. Thank-you.
