Chapter 14: Confused Reactions

"Goku and Chichi forever." I didn't know how to react to this. What did she mean by this? But then I read the forever part over and over, till a sudden burst of joy filled. I then looked at her with a hopeful smile. "Do you really mean forever?" She excitedly nodded back, and the joy in my chest grew. That was, until I was ambushed by her hug. I was so unguarded that I fell backwards from the force. Then when I looked up, she was on top of me. Oh my. She was surrounded by flowers, and her cheeks were pink. And to top it off, the way her lips looked…

She then got off me all of a sudden. I looked away, and held onto my chest, in hopes to calm my racing heart. I could feel my face burning up. Why was I reacting like this? Why did I notice her lips? Why were there flowers? Why do I want to see that face again? Why did I want to see all the faces she can make? That brief moment she was on top of me I notice she was on top of a certain body part. And having her there felt nice. OH NO! NO! NO! NO! STOP THAT!

Just then I felt lighting shoot up my arm, as I felt her touch my hand. I automatic looked at her, and I regret it. She was making one of those faces I came to like. And it made my heart beat even faster. I was on the verge of getting up to leave. But the more I stair into her brown eyes, the more I wanted to stay. She then moved closer, and I was just stone to the spot.

She then did that thing from the tournament. My cheeks became hotter, which I never thought possible. Out of impulse, I pressed my lips to her cheek too. And even her face became hotter. I don't think I could take it anymore, with the way she looked. I want to see more, much more. I did it again to her nose, this time. She wiggled her nose. Oh, I like that! I did it again, and got the same reaction. I did it a few more times, till she told me to just stop. I didn't want to.

I then try to again, and she did something even more unexcepted. And this sent a shock wave through my whole body, that I even pulled her closer as I did it back. She had pressed her lips to mine. By the time we parted we were breathless. I wanted another one of those, but was interrupted by a cough, by someone that wasn't us.

…

He kissed me! Oh my! YAY! He kissed me back! He then kissed my nose. That tickled, and he kept doing that. I then told him to stop, but doesn't look like he'll listen. He went to do it again, and compulsively I blocked him with my lips. It was like lighting hit me the moment our lips touched. I was then surprised when Goku pulled me closer, and he kissed back. I don't ever want to stop this feeling, it's too perfect. When we parted, we were left breathless, and my lips feeling cold from the lack of his.

Just when we were about to kiss again, we heard a cough. And when we looked to who it was. It was no other than Mrs. Ying. OH NO! I wasn't being a proper lady, and she's going to say something. She walked over to us. I started fearing the worst, and hugged Goku, in hope it shield me.

"Young Miss, your father is looking for you. And change back to your proper attire." She then looked at Goku and made a huff as she walked away. Oh no! Dad going to find out. In a panic I got up quickly, and was about to start running to the castle, when I felt myself being carried. I looked up to see Goku, and he stated it'll be faster. I nodded, and before I knew it, we were at the castle entrance in a blink of an eye. Wow! That was amazing!

"Thank you." I just looked at him with a smile, as he placed me on my feet.

…

When that old lady walked over to us, I felt holding close to me. She was also shaking. Was she scared? I don't like this. Chichi should never feel scared, especially with me around. Wow. Where did that come from. Then the old lady told Chichi that her father was looking for her, and commanding her to put back on that stuffy outfit. In a panic Chichi stood up. She looked ready to run. Then I had an idea, maybe I should carry her back to the castle. It would be faster.

She was surprised that I picked her, but I told her why. She smiled and nodded. When we got to the entrance, I looked down at her. Wow! That was amazing! "Thank you." She had that pink color back as she started walking inside. I followed her in, and enjoyed myself staring at her shoulders. She walked with such confidence and purpose, I found myself admiring that part of her, a lot!

After she changed, we made our way to where the Ox King was. When we met up with him that old lady was next to him. I was starting to get a bad feeling. "Chichi, I'm going to be throwing your engagement party in three days. So please teach Goku the proper dance. After the wedding, we will be doing your crowning ceremony. With that, you may leave."

I noticed how Chichi face lit up with the news, until that crowning part was mention. When that was mention she looked at the floor, and upset. Once we left her father, we walked to my room. There she told me what her father was talking about.

…

Damn it! Damn it! How many times do I have to tell him? I don't want to be queen! Once me and Goku got to his room, we sat on the bed. I was trying to fight back my emotions. It was really hard to not break down, and cry. The moment Goku placed his hand on my shoulder and asked what was wrong, the dam finally broke. I sobbed heavily into my hands. I then turned to him, and started sobbing in his chest. I felt his arms wrapped around me. After a few moments I finally calm down, enough to look at his concern face. "I don't want to be queen!" I blurted out, and began sobbing again.

"What is that you want?" At that moment I stopped crying and just looked at him. He's the first person that ever asked me that. I couldn't help smile as I answered.

"I want a simple life. I want a husband that supports me and our family. I want to be a simple house wife, that makes my family happy. I want to be independent. I don't want to rule a kingdom that I'm not proud about." That's when I started getting sad again. "I'm not proud how my dad got his riches. I'm not proud how dad became ruler of this village." Then I looked up at him, confident. "I want to create my own happiness."

He then gave me the smile that I came to love. The smile that made me feel so happy. The smile that had his teeth all shiny. I felt a blush building as a thought came up. So, I went for it. I kissed him. On the lips! He was so shocked; it took him a moment to return the kiss. This one felt different from the other one, but it felt so rewarding. Just then, there was a knock at the door, and someone saying princess. One quick looked to Goku, and I saw how annoyed he was. He even got up and was about to head to the door, before I stopped him. I was so sad.

…

"What is it that you want?" The moment I said that she stopped crying, and gave me one of biggest smile I've seen her do. And when she told me what she wanted; I felt a strong sense of pride. Well, until she started mentioning things that got her sad again. But when she said that last part, very confident, I was beyond prideful at this point. It was to where I couldn't stop the biggest smile to form on my face.

Just then, she did that thing again. I was so thrown back; it took me moment to respond. When I pressed back it felt so warm. It wasn't like the other before, but this one felt just as special. I wanted it to last forever, but the happiness ended the moment someone knocked. So damn annoying. I just want to grab whoever that is, threaten them. Just as I got up to do just that, she grabbed my hand.

One last looked at the door, and I turned back to her. I then sat back on the bed, with my arms crossed, while she got the door. And when I saw who it was, I definitely wanted to punch him. HOLD UP! Where is this coming from? When she returned back, she told me her father wanted to see her again. I got up ready to follow her, but she held up her hand. "I have to do this alone." Fine, but I'm getting one more of those lip touches before she goes.

I'll pulled her face closer, and pressed our lips together. Even though I wanted a long one, I made it short. Even the short ones felt nice, and it made her have the pink on her face, as she walked away. I smiled at her, till I saw his eyes, and gave him a death glare. I think he got the point, telling how he flinched.

MINE!

…

When I reached dad, he was standing by the window, and he looked so sad. "You summoned me daddy."

"Do you still not want to be queen?" I was surprised by the question.

"Yeah dad." Where was he going with this?

I heard a huff before he spoke. "Find." I looked at him surprised. Did I hear correctly. "But on the condition, I build your new home, and support you for the first year of your marriage. And." I stood at attention, as I looked on excited. "I get to spoil the hell out of my grandkids." With that he finally broke in a smile, and so did I. I ran up to him and gave him the biggest hug I could. I kept say thank you so much I lost track. When we finally stopped hugging. He told me how we'll start planning tomorrow, and have the wedding within a few weeks. Depending how soon we could build my new home, and get everything else settled.

I just couldn't believe it. My dreams where starting to come true. And to top it off, he moved out the way to reveal my mother's old wedding dress. The tears of joy just kept coming out as I ran up to the dress. And then a though came up. Why not take advantage now. "Daddy." He looked down at me. "Is it possible you could also help Goku?"

"How?"

"Well, you see." I looked away while I continued. "He doesn't really have anything. Like no clothes or anything." I could hear my father taking a moment to think, till he said sure. That made me jump again with joy, and hugged him again. "I'm going to go tell Goku. I LOVE YOU DAD!"

As I ran back to Goku, to tell him the news, I felt a weird sense of anger. Where was that coming from? I then ran faster to Goku. When I reached him, he was still sitting on the bed. Thankfully alone. But why did I sense anger? When he turned to me, the anger disappeared. I then sat down next to him, and hugged his arm. "Is something the matter, Goku?" He shocked his head, and just smiled at me.

…

After Chichi left, I felt my anger boiling. I didn't understand why. But that guy was really starting to bug me. After Chichi walked past him, his eyes landed on her butt. NO! Nobody can look at MY Chichi! Woo! Where did that come from? Then again, who cares. Nobody is allowed to admire her but me! I wonder how long that guy knows Chichi? Did he, too, lived here? Had he ever touched Chichi? That last question really bothered me. So much that I did something I rarely did, I grinded my teeth.

Oh, did I what to punch this guy so badly. I want to see him in a bloody heap, begging for mercy. I want to just… Hold up! Calm down. This isn't me. Where did all this come from? I never would hurt anyone like that, unless it's self-defense. But the way I felt toward this one guy, was on the boarder of things I would do, if given the right chance. I did not just want to beat him into a bloody heap, but also make him think he can escape, just to punish him over and over again.

I wouldn't mind breaking a few bones to get my point across. Which is to STAY AWAY FROM MY CHICHI! I really need to figure out where this is coming from. It's actually scaring me, well… Not really. In some way it feels good to feel this way. To feel a deep need to brutally hurt someone. And not because they're evil, but just because it feels like a personal attack.

Just when I was thinking that I should find him, just for that one reason, Chichi had appeared. He got lucky. All my anger melted away staring at her face. She then sat down next to me, and hugged my arm. She asked if I was ok, and I told her I was. I don't think she believed me. So, I thought maybe I should try to word why I'm fine. "I'll always be fine, with you around."

The face she gave me was priceless, and even flowers started to appear around her. Oh yes. I want to see that face more often. She then told me what her father and her talked about. It made me happy to see that she'll finally get what she wanted. So happy, that I pressed my lips to hers. It was sweet bliss till we parted. I wanted to do it again till she spoke.

"You really love kissing me, uh?" She had a wonderful smile when she said that. Wait. Kissing? That's a new word. So that thing with the lips? That's what it's called? Yes. Wait, what! Did she just? Did you just responded to me without opening your mouth? Yes. We both looked surprised.

I can't believe it! I was going to question it, but I really don't care. Instead, I just kept on kissing her. Kissing, funny word to name something so wonderful.
