He sat with her as they ate the small meal she had made. That was one thing she noticed about any Sayain, they ate a lot and with very little manners she noticed as Kakarott slurped down his noodles and pork obviously enjoying what he ate, which made he swell with pride. She should have been proud that had been the best meal he had ever eaten and he had eaten many meals from around the world., he watched her face as she cleared up, he could tell she was happy with his enjoyment of her meal. Her house was small, cosy none the less but small, it had enough rooms for her and her alone and that made him wonder, where was her family? Why was she here alone? She seemed to spend all her evenings in here didn't she have friends?

"So Chichi where do your parents live?" He was smiling as he looked at her; she turned to look at him and he could tell something g was wrong her smile had vanished and her eyes looked to the floor.

"I don't have any parents anymore, they died while I was growing up" Her voice was low and quiet, he felt his heart drop for her as he watched her, wishing he had never asked.

"Oh Chi I'm sorry" He put as much pity and sorrow that he felt for her in his words as he felt.

"It's ok. My father died when I was a small child, in a revolt. And my mother well she actually worked here, I used to come and watch her work but about a year and a half ago she fell ill and we couldn't afford a doctor, she died after about a week, I was left with nothing but your Mother took me in as a servant and that's how I ended up here."

He could see the tears in her eyes and pitied her greatly; he couldn't imagine not having his parents with him now. He stood and walked to her taking her hands in his for comfort.

"I had wanted to be a scholar, the first in my family but I couldn't afford to go to college, you see on the wages I and Mother got you have enough to keep you fed, warm and sheltered for what you need with a little spare to treat yourself and then when your Father raised our wages I had enough to go if I saved but it was too late so I stayed here. Considering where I am now I'm glad I did." She was looking at him, her eyes burning into his as she kissed him lightly to prove her words and to show how she was ok now. He smiled at her, glad that she had pushed her way through and made it to where she is now.

"Come on Chi, I think it's time my parents met you."

They walked quietly down the corridors, hand in hand, she wasn't looking forward to this but at the same time she was. She only knew Kakarott's parents through work and although she had seen them, she hadn't really spoken to them but now standing in front of a huge door knowing that her, she guessed parents-in-law were behind it but not knowing how they were going to react got the adrenalin rushing through her veins.

Tannupa and Bardock were sat quietly talking at the small table in the corner of the library, he knew he would find them there, it was usual for them to sit in there at this time , so they could have privacy all of their children and the servants usually left them alone but today he felt he had a good enough reason to disturb them and so after knocking he entered the room, Chichi remaining outside until she was asked to enter.

"Hello Mother, hello Father. Um how are things?" He looked at them, smiling.

"Oh hello dear, things are fine. How can I help you sweetie" Tannupa added lightly, Bardock rolling his eyes and grunting in the general direction of his son ,Kakarott could tell his Father had wanted some time alone with his Mother and sort of regretted disturbing them.

"Well I wanted you to meet the mate that I chose" He could see their eyes widen and look franticly around them as they look for her.

"Babe can you come in now, please" He called gently and kept a small smile on his face as she entered the room.

She kept her head bowed out of respect, they may be her lover's parents but they were still her masters. She could hear their gasp and could have sworn the sound of their jaws hitting the floor. But she kept her head bowed whether from shyness, respect or fear she wasn't sure, probably a bit of each. Tannupa walked up to her and began walking around her, like a drill sergeant, inspecting her.

"Lift your head then child, I can't see you if your looking at the floor now can I" She raised her head immediately, looking her Mistress straight in the face, Bardock in the corner still not paying any attention but looking totally pissed but she didn't think that was her. Kakarott still had that soft expression in his eyes as he watched his Mother.

"Kakarott honey, isn't this the young girl who cleans our fires?"

"Yes Mother" He sounded strict and challenging, his tone warning her against starting anything if she was going to.

"Oh well it's nice to know she is at least loyal, but she is going to have to go through a couple of changes" Tannupa sighed from frustration, she didn't like this but there really was nothing she could do, but still what ever was wrong with a Sayain girl?

"She can move in a couple of days, bring only what you need dear we'll provide the rest. Bardock, come say hello stop being rude! Anyway we'll get the tailor in and sort her some proper clothes, and she shall have to be tutored as well. Oh and we'll call the architect and have you both a home built and a wedding the humans like a good old traditional wedding." She continued, Bardock had walked over to greet the young woman and Kakarott stood shocked at his Mothers list in the corner of the room

He took Chichi's hand in his and led her out of the room and down the corridor, leaving his poor Father to cope with his Mothers preparations. He led her to his room, he had made love to her twice in her home and wanted her to see what she was coming into, repay her hospitality and make-love to her in his own bed, hold her in his arms and wake up with her in his home, just like he had done at her home.

Well I'll admit that wasn't one of my best chapters but I needed to write something and that damn writers block is still bugging me lol if something better comes to me might re-write the chapter a bit, either that or make the next one longer and better lol. Hope you liked it, please r&r

Lots of love and luck
