Chapter 69: Know you

As we watched Gohan answer the door, I noticed my parents had very big smiles. I couldn't help smile, too, especially knowing who's at the door. Videl has an angry face when Gohan opens the door. But I don't think she's actually angry. From all the times I've seen her, I stop thinking that was her angry face. They were, for some reason, talking boring school project. Points to Trunks for calling Gohan a nerd. I was starting to get disappointed that Gohan wouldn't talk about anything else. Well, till dad shouted out. "Videl would you like to stay for dinner?" The look on their faces were priceless. They actually were the matching redness. Trunks is gonna like this.

Videl finally said that she would love to, just that she has to let her dad know. Well, since now he knows she's seeing a boy. Mom said she could use our phone, but Videl tried to decline. Saying something about, it'll be better she went home, so she can change. For a brief moment Gohan looked sad. "Nonsense, you look fine." Ha ha. Videl is trapped. There's no way she can say no to mom. Even if she tried, mom was already on the move, to pull her inside. Gohan looked speechless. My parents are geniuses.

…

I can't believe this! My parents are trying to kill me. They're absolutely evil. This is the second day dad's alive, and already he's making it hell. Know what. Thank you. This actually feels good. It was taking me a lot to actually ask her myself, so, I'm glad dad did it. Not in the best way, but still. And now mom has Videl trapped on the couch. She looks like she needs help. I do! CRAP! How the hell? I have to ask Veg… Wait! I can ask dad, since he's back. But does dad know why this is happening? I looked over to dad, and he's smiling at me. You do know! Tell me! He just points at Videl and mom. Crap! They're staring at me. What am I going to do?

…

You do know! Tell me! I just point to the girls. My poor Gohan is freaking out. I can't help but smile. Just then I felt a small tug of my pants. I looked down, and it seems Goten was trying to get my attention. "What is it, little guy?" He was doing that thing Gohan did when he wanted to be carried. I felt honored to do just that. "So, what's the matter?"

"You said we'll go hunting, for today's lunch. Can we go now?" Looked over at Chichi, and she was smiling at us. I told her that we were going hunting now, and will be back soon. She nodded and continued talking with Videl. Gohan tried to ask to come with us, but. "Oh, no you don't! You always go! Not this time." He then held tight to my neck. "It's my turn! And only dad gets to come." Gohan looked ready to say something when Chichi caught his attention. He gave one final glare at Goten and sat on the couch, next to Videl.

Once we were outside, something told me I need to find out exactly what he knew about hunting. "Since you never hunted before, what do you think it is?" Turns out he thought that Gohan found already died animals, and just cut them us. Or at least, that what Chichi told him. Oh, this is either going to very bad or it'll be ok. "When we hunt animals for food, we're the ones that kill them." He gave me a shock look, and then started crying.

"So, it's possible Gohan probably killed Mr. Tiger, without me know?" Oh boy.

"Maybe he didn't, since he knew him. Gohan never kills a friend. He probably killed different tigers, and left Mr. Tiger alone." That seemed to cheer him up, for now. As I was teaching him how to hunt, boar of all things, I was feeling a wave of familiar joy. It almost feels like when I was teaching Gohan. Only difference was Gohan was much order, and he had some practice, when he lived on his own. I even taught Goten about different plants. He was very happy. Along the way, he did stop a lot to look at all the different bugs. He even talked about some of them. That made me happy.

When we was on our way home, with our game, Goten seemed to be very quiet. From the little I spent with him, this seemed to be off. I tried asking if he was ok, and just said he was fine. Did I do something wrong? Just before we got to the house, he asked me, if it's possible, I could teach him more stuff. "Sure thing, little guy. Is there anything you want me to teach you?" I seemed to fidget with his fingers, before he looked up at me. He wants me to teach him everything I taught Gohan. "I don't think your mom would allow me right now, but I'll definitely teach you. Just a little at a time. Ok, buddy?" He nodded, and we finally made it to the front yard. I wonder if the tools are still into the same place. Not like I need them anyway. I looked down to tool Goten. "Does Gohan use tools when he cuts the meat?" He shook his head. "Have you seen him do it?" Another no. "Good. I get to show you." He looked so excited.

…

When the boys got back, they were covered in blood. That much blood usually meant they got boar. I was going to argue with them, about dirtying my floors, but Goten looks so happy. You only get this one pass. You sure? I just nod, and my Goku smiles at me. I asked Videl if she wanted to help me, and I was very pleased she said yes. As we worked in the kitchen, I couldn't help feel motherly pride. I wonder if this is what it feels like to have a daughter.

It was clear she never worked in a kitchen, and I was very happy to show her around. It felt so wonderful to teach someone what I knew. It also felt nice to have another girl around. When lunch was ready, I saw she had a look of impressed. "You should be impressed with yourself. You did a great job." Aw, she was blushing. When we sat down for lunch, I couldn't help admire my Goku. It's been so long since he's been home. Yesterday felt like a dream, and this morning it became reality. What surprised me, and everyone else, was the fact he had a spoon up to my face. He hadn't feed me in years. I took the bite and was so happy. I was feeling somewhat special. Goten looked shock, and then looked over to Gohan. Gohan started blushing. I could only get what Goten told him. Now even Videl was blushing. Oh my, can it really be? This is really is a special day.

As I cleaned, the house, for our soon guess, I couldn't help to hum a happy tone. I just finished cleaning the living room, when I spotted all four of them looking at me. Is there something wrong with me. "Why are you all staring?" It was Goten that reply, saying how he never heard me hum this tune before. Videl just say how she was memorized by my speed, and strength. Gohan was also surprised by the tune. Goku just smiled, and didn't say anything. For some reason I felt I was placed in the spotlight, and was getting special attention. I didn't like it. So, I kicked them all out, so I can finish cleaning.

…

Mom really kicked us out. But it's not our fault she was being so amazing. Dad is looking back at the house smiling. Gohan and Videl looks like they're trying to make a break for it. Why's that? I looked back to dad, and he's already standing up. Haha! Dad caught Gohan before he went too far. Dad is telling them not to stay out too long, since we're having guess soon. I then follow dad to a tree nearby, and he's just sitting down. Gohan did say that dad was super relaxed. So, I sat down next to him. I was feeling bored. Just doing nothing is boring. I want to play. Maybe dad would play with me. But what would he play? Maybe I could ask him, but I don't know.

That's when it really started to sink in that I truly didn't know him. I also don't know what I'm supposed to do with a dad. Even thou I know he's my dad. He's really nice, and comforting. But what can we possible do together? Whenever I see Trunks with his dad, his dad is always going about training. Sometimes they play video games, but most of the time, uncle Vegeta keeps to himself. Is my dad like that? Gohan tells me how he's always training, but same time, every chance he got, daddy would spend time with him. Gohan said how dad loved it when Gohan told him stuff he learned and did, when he was away. Gohan says dad is always telling him how proud he is. But what I am going to do? I'm not Gohan. I don't know dad like Gohan or mom does. I don't know what to do.

That's when I felt tears sliding down my face. Oh great. I'm crying. I didn't want him to see me cry. But I just don't know what to do. That's when I felt I was being picked up. When I looked, dad was carrying me. I then just couldn't stop crying, and I ended up crying in his chest. I felt him hold me, and rub my back, just like mom does. It just made me cry more. Why am I crying? "It's ok, Goten. Just take it one day at a time." I then looked up to him, and he was smiling. "You got all the time in the world now. So, don't you worry." He then rubbed the tears away. "I'm here now. So, don't you worry. Daddy isn't going anywhere. That means we get to learn about each other every day." For some reason that made me feel all warm inside, and I hugged him. He kept rubbing my back and holding me. So far, he's the best daddy ever.

…

I'm not Gohan. I don't know dad like Gohan or mom does. I don't know what to do.

Goten sounds so distressed. I looked to the little guy and I see him crying. Oh no. None of that. My sons aren't allowed to cry, and it's my job to make sure of that. I go and pick up Goten. He takes a quick look at me, before hugs me and starts to sob into my chest. My poor little guy. I try to calm him down, but it just makes him cry more. What I am going to do? It's been years since I've calm one of my sons. How am I going to calm him down? Uh? That's right. We don't really know each other. Maybe that's why he's like this. Poor kiddo. "It's ok, Goten. Just take it one day at a time." I rubbed his tears away. I never thought I would be being doing that again. "I'm here now. So, don't you worry. Daddy isn't going anywhere. That means we get to learn about each other every day." That seemed to make him smile. He then hugged me tighter, and I couldn't help hold even closer.

As the guess were arriving, Chichi was nowhere to be seen. It was up to me, the boys, and Videl to greet everyone. I left the boys in charge, as I went in search of Chichi. When I found her, she was in our room trying to pick out an outfit. "Just stay with what you have on. You look fine." She argued how she was cleaning in those clothes. "But this is your home, you should be allowed to wear whatever you like." She didn't seem to like that answer. "Please." She still didn't seem to like the idea, but she did at least put the clothes down, and walked over to me. "Don't pout at me." I kissed her nose. "But if you are, can it wait when everyone leaves." I kissed her lips, and then walked out our room.

…

I can't believe the boys actually broke it! Now we have to buy a new one. On top of that, the boys were naked in front of our guess. They have no shame what so ever. And poor, innocent, Videl witness that. So, improper. The boys finally unfused, and were clothed. Also, a certain husband was properly clothed. After everyone left, I tried cleaning up all the mess. But the boys were trying to stop me, and clean themselves. No way! I tried stopping them, but they keep at it. I am so angry. I dragged all three out, and closed the door. "If you step inside you get no breakfast!" There was a loud groan, but none had entered. Good!

Once the cleaning was done, and I had calm down, somewhat, I finally let the boys in. Goten hugged me and cried for my forgiveness. I told it was ok, and that I forgave him. He then asked if I forgave Goku. "I'll think about it." With that I sent the boys to bed. Once in our room, my anger was slowly coming back. The minute the door was closed, I turned to him. "How could you do that?" I tried to keep my screaming to a whisper. "You were very indecent in front of our guess, and even Videl! Poor Videl. She didn't have to witness her future father-in-law naked body. So, improper." I then turned away from him. "Nobody is supposed to see you like that. that was embarrassing." I then felt his strong arms around me, and a kissed to my neck. I tried to get out of his hold, but he only hugged tighter. "Oh, no Goku." I then felt him lick my neck. I was trying to fight back how good that felt. He did it one more time, and then nipped my earlobe. I found myself breathless. I was trying really hard to fight it. Then he just let me go.

When I turned to him, he was smiling. How dare he! "Sorry. You know how I get when you're all like this." He then backed away, and held out his hands. "I'll stop. Unless?" He had that one grin that always got my heart beating, to where it feels it'll burst. He's not being fair. He's being super mean to me. I just turn away. If I can't see him, then he can't affect me. I felt him rubbing my shoulders. "That hurt, you know. But I'll let it slide." He then purrs into my ear. "This once." My husband is pure evil. I then felt him pull away. "Fine, I'll behave. It's just that miss you so much." With that, we went to bed, and he wasn't allowed to touch me.
