Chapter 66: Guess who's here
I'm starting to get worried. Dad isn't here yet. Everyone else had arrived, and even Videl and her dad. I want to go say hi, but I want to see my dad first. That's when we spot Mr. Piccolo. I asked him if he seen my dad yet, and he shakes his head. Krillin suggest he takes a look around, and that's when time just froze. That ki, that so familiar ki, it was right behind me. The moment I turned around I saw him. Dad? "Dad!" He's smiling. I can't believe it! It's really him.
"Gohan you're giant!" To hear his voice is incredible. I don't know what to do. I feel frozen into place. "Are you all really going to stand there, and not say hi?" I can't help it, but to run into his arms. To feel his arms around me again, feels so wonderful. I just can't stop the tears from falling. It really is dad! He then tells mom he misses her, and I let him go. "I think there's a little me hiding behind your leg, Chichi." He spotted Goten. Goten looks so shy. "Hey there little guy."
"Daddy!" Goten runs into his arms, and I can't help feel so happy. Goten finally got to meet dad, and they look so happy. Dad is even playing with him. Everyone has already walked away from us; giving us a little moment. It takes a while, but dad finally got to hug mom. He still hasn't Goten go, but he hugged mom anyway. I should give my parents a moment. I grab Goten from dad, and tell them that we're going to go ahead and sign in. With that I walked away. "Gohan." I looked at Goten. "You was right. Dad is nice, and it felt good to hug him." I couldn't help smile at that.
…
I'm so happy I prepared everything last night, it was so much easier to cook this morning. I made sure to prep a special meal for Goku. Since the tournament doesn't really start till the afternoon, thanks to new ruling. And knowing Goku, he probably didn't eat breakfast. The boys have already eaten their breakfast, and is getting ready. Once everything is cooked and put away, I quickly took a shower and got dress. I was tempted to wear the crystal flowers, but decided on the bracelets he got me during our last winter festival. I even was wearing his favorite underwear, just in case we have enough time after.
Once we're at the tournament grounds is when I start to feel a little nervous. I hope he still recognize me, since I let my bangs grow out. Just when everyone was getting worried, he finally showed up. My Goku is finally here. I don't believe my eyes. Gohan finally got to hug his dad again. "I missed you too, Chichi." Hearing him say made me feel warm inside. He then spotted Goten. Poor Goten, he's so shy. With a little encouragement, he ran up to his father. Seeing them together warms my heart. I tried capturing every little detail by heart. This moment was just too perfect. My baby finally got to meet his daddy. Soon, Goku had pulled me into a hug, while still holding our son. It's not the hug I want, but it's still perfect.
Then Gohan took Goten, saying they're going to sign up, and I was left with Goku. I felt so nervous standing next to him. The moment the boys were out of sight, I felt him pull me aside somewhere. When I finally took note of our surroundings, we were completely alone. I then saw his smile fade, and he just kissed me. I kissed back at full force, not wanting to waste a second. When we did part, he just kept dropping kisses on me, and hugging me tightly. I couldn't stop giggling. "I missed you so much, Goku."
He finally stopped kissing me, and was giving me the smile that rivaled the sun. "And I missed you so much too, my perfect Chichi." I felt tears fall at being called that again. I couldn't help sob as I held him tightly. "Shh, it's ok. Please doing cry." I felt him rubbing my back. I felt so loved at this moment. I wish it could last forever. "Me too. Now come on, show me that beautiful smile that I miss so much." I looked at him smiling, as he wiped the tears away. "There we go." He kissed my lips again. "Now don't let me catch you crying missy, understand me." I just couldn't help laugh at that. My Goku is still being Goku.
I hugged him even more, and then I remembered something super important. "So, guess what."
"What?"
"Our Gohan has a girlfriend!" His face was priceless.
"No way. Do I get to meet her? Is she on the island? When did this happened? How long?"
"Calm down Goku." He was still jumping. "She's here, and is the reason Gohan is even entering this tournament." His face started beaming. "Don't say anything." He gave me a confused face. "From what I understand they'll not officially dating yet. Stop pouting. Since you're going to be fighting, could you keep on eye on those two. Please." He kissed me and agreed. "Oh, go hurry and sign up. Don't want you missing out now." He looked a bit sad, and was still holding me. I held his face between my hands. "Do you want a good luck kissy?" He nodded. Of course, he does. This kiss was a long passionate one, and boy, did I feel my face was on fire. He looked so proud of himself for that, too.
…
I can't believe it. The guy from the pictures. He's so tall. Gohan is hugging him, and is even crying. Big brother hasn't crying in a long time. Oh, he spotted me. What am I going to do? I nervous. "Hey there little." He sounds so nice, even his smile is nice. I feel that weird warm feeling again. Mind made up.
"Daddy!" I just run into his arms, and he puts me on his shoulder. I can't help but to rub my face against his. He even is playing with me. This is so fun. He is so nice. I don't want to let go. Not even when he was trying to give mom a hug. It took Gohan for me to finally let go. Somehow, I felt cold when I let go. Why did I feel cold? As we walked away, I finally admit to Gohan, that he was right about daddy. Daddy is nice, and it felt really good to hug him.
As we wait, daddy is playing with me. We're making silly faces, and its super fun. Also, we're saying the first words that comes to our minds. When everyone else finally arrives, we stop playing. But daddy rubbed my head. For that moment I feel super special. Gohan and mom does that sometimes, and I feel special when they do it. But it's a whole another special coming from daddy. There's more weight behind it, and hand is bigger too. I never seen uncle Vegeta do that to Trunks, I wonder why. Either way, at this very moment, just feel ultra-special.
…
I can't believe it! My little Gohan is a giant, maybe even taller than me! I hope those are happy tears, because I don't want him sad. Hugging him again feel so wonderful. Then I spot my perfect Chichi. "I missed you, hon." I told her I missed her too. That's when I spot them. It's… it's… A BOY! Oh, my goodness, and he looks just like me. I cotched down, and call out to him. "It's ok Goten." So, his name is Goten. That's a nice name, definitely going to remember that.
"Daddy!" He runs into my arms, and I can't help but just hug him. He's just so perfect. I placed him on my shoulders, and he rubbed his face against mine. This is way better than I expected. Not only did I get to meet him, I even got the greatest joy of holding him. I just didn't want to let go. But I still had to give a special lady a hug. Gohan was the one who finally took Goten from me, but the knowledge I'll be able to hold him later, kept me from complaining. I watched my boys try to catch up with everyone, and when they were out of sight, I had my Chichi all to myself. Now to find somewhere to give her a proper greeting.
When I finally found a spot, I let my smile go. I finally can let her know how much I missed her. With no time to waste, I kissed her, and was so trilled she kissed back right away. When I finally broke the kiss, I just wanted more. I showered her with enough affection, that I didn't over did it. I can't do that here, especially now. My little wife is as beautiful as I remembered. Mind the little changes here and there, but she still looked like Chichi. And smelled like her too. Oh man, I just want to drown in her scent for the rest of my afterlife.
We tell each other how much we miss another, and she begins to cry. No! None of that! My perfect Chichi isn't allowed to cry. Once I get her smiling again, she tells me how our Gohan has a girlfriend now. So exciting. My little Gohan has found someone special. I want to know who she is. And hearing what Chichi is telling me, I'm going to meet her soon. I better behave. But I just can't believe it. Not only did I find out I have another son, my older son has found himself a special someone. I can't wait to hear more. Before we start heading to the ground, I was able to give my Chichi a passion full kiss. And I am very proud I still can get a reaction from her.
…
After we signed up, we were just looking around. Well, until Videl grabbed. She wanted to show me her improvements on her flying. She gotten pretty good, that I'm impress. We ended up landing on in an enclosed area. Even though I was praising her, I couldn't help but to admire the smile she was giving me. It was turning to be a very nice moment, till Sharpner came out of nowhere. That actually, surprisly, annoyed me. Why is he wearing a suit? Did Videl just say she was with me? Well, Saiyaman, but still. And she's hugging my arm, and resting her head on my shoulder. And the way her voice sounded. Damn it! I don't think I could handle this. What's worse is that I'm liking this extra attention, especially getting to smell her scent.
The closer we got to the where the fighter gather, the looser her grip on me was. Soon we were just standing next to each other. I was actually disappointed. And was feeling strangely cold. A part of me wanted to reach for her hand, at least. Then I wonder if that was just a show to get Sharpner off her back. Then it didn't mean anything to her. I so hope that's not the case. It would be nice if she actually meant it, about the whole being with me. But like, the actually me and not Saiyaman. After the tournament I'm going to try to build up the courage to ask her.
I can't believe it! Vegeta just couldn't hold back. Oh, dad walking this way. Somehow, I feel nervous. "Uh? The guy in the orange, he's my dad. No, just dead." Dad then asked if this the girl he heard about. And even asked me to introduce her. Damn it, mom. "This is my friend, Videl." Krillin needs to stop. Well, that went pretty well. I think dad approves. WAIT! Why did I just think that? Oh great. This is just great. You really got yourself a keeper. DAMN IT DAD! So, dad does approve. Just my luck.
When we finally finish our turn, we rushed to meet the rest of the group. And Krillin had to make a damn comment, and dad too. I'm not blushing. Seeing Trunks and Goten go was amazing, till they did the thing I told them not to do. Great, now Videl is yelling at me about the possibility I did some special training with my brother. I can even hear dad and Krillin snickering. DAD! Huff. Just you wait! Oh, is my little man angry at me? She really is special. Now I know I'm blushing like mad. I can't believe he said that.
…
Trunks was right, this is boring. But I know he's watching. I hope I'm doing a good job. I hope I'm making mom proud, too. It's finally the last match, and I'm, not surprisly, facing off Trucks. He improved a lot, but so did I. Then he did one of those things Gohan was teaching me. I tried it, but I kind of lost control. Oops. Maybe I shouldn't have done that. I should have waited till I had more practice. Then he had me in a very strong hold. I was just desperate to get out, that I even broke Gohan's rule. Gohan is probably mad at me now. Just great! Trunks mocking me! That no good cheater! He may have a point about the super sayian, but he used his other hand. So mean! Oh boy! I get one of his toys!
Trunks is going to get us in trouble, but so what. I also want to fight with the grownups, and even be near my dad. I still don't think I made a good impress, especially with my mistakes. As we're in the waiting area, I see Gohan is talking with Videl. Trunks asks about that, and I told him I'll tell him later. I also see dad just standing around and looking at Gohan, well, till he looks my way. He smiles and shakes his head. Does he know I'm here? Yes, and your mom is probably worried. OH CRAP! He did the thing mom and Gohan does. Well, at least he's not telling me to leave. This is nice. So, I do get to spend up close with dad longer than I thought. I wonder if uncle Vegeta knows we're here. I take a quick look his way, and he's shaking his head. Well, of course he'll know. But why isn't Gohan or Mr. Piccolo noticing us? Then again, I don't have to worry about big brother. But Mr. Piccolo looks worried and it's freaking me out.
