Chapter 75: Sayian Reunion
"I know right. I still can't believe it. Uh? I couldn't ask you to do that. But… Oh! Ok. Thank you. Alright. See you later today." Once I got off the phone, I told Goku that Bulma was coming over. He was playing with Goten, he asked what Bulma wanted. "Oh, she wants to take care of setting up, and hosting our ceremony." He asked why she wanted to do that. "She said she feels like she owes us. I tried to tell her she didn't have to, but she insisted." I couldn't help smile at that.
For a few hours the day went pretty well. Gohan was out with Videl, Goku was playing with Goten, and I simply was starting on the laundry. Shortly after I put the close to wash, Goku said that they were here. I didn't even get a chance to get the door, because simply let herself in. Sometimes I wonder if it was a good idea to give her the spare key. "I'm here. Now boys get out." Uh? She just walks right in, and then kicks my husband and son out. I would be mad, or at least annoyed, but this is Bulma. My first reaction was to laugh. Over the 7 years we did from a somewhat sisterly bound. Close enough that I felt I could trust her with certain things. And with her I didn't feel alone in my feelings. Once the boys were out, we started planning.
…
"Spill it Kakarot! You let me win our little match! You damn bastard!"
"Oh, calm down Vegeta. I didn't let you win. I just couldn't go all out."
"LAIR!"
Me and Trunks just watched uncle Vegeta basically yelling at my dad. Trunks commented how weird this all looks. "Yeah. Wish I had some popcorn to watch." We laughed at that. But I did agree with Trunks on how weird this was. Trunks went on about how I really did look like my dad, and how creepy that was. Somehow, I didn't find it creepy. I almost honored to look like him. Soon dad and Vegeta argument turned to them both screaming at each other. That's new. Gohan never mention is dad had a temper, or if he argues back with people. Why wouldn't big brother tell me that? Our dad's look like they were about to fight, and Trunks went and got our moms.
Mom was smiling at the situation, while aunty Bulma looked confused. Mom told our dads if they're going to fight to go somewhere else, and to be back for in time for dinner. With that, our dads flew off. We were going to follow them, till our moms got us. "But mom." "Trunks."
"Mom can we please go. We promise to stay out the way." Mom still said no. She saying to give our dads some space. Something about working things out. I wonder what she meant by that.
…
The moment we landed on a far away island, we powered down. "That wasn't right Kakarot."
"Yeah, I know. But not like you're any better, Mr. I want to feel evil again, and have more power."
"Oh, shut up. Now tell me." I just looked at him. "Are you still able to reach that transformation." I told him I wasn't sure, but I could try. I did give it a try, and it took everything I got to go super sayian 3. So much so that once I did it, I had to power down right away. "So, it's not stable. Good."
"Very funny. What? You actually think you can keep up?" I Snickered till I felt a hard punch to the face. "All it means I have to train some more to get make it stable." I looked over to him. "I could really use a training buddy, or at least someone to spar with."
"And what makes you think I would agree, you clown?"
"I don't know. Maybe you'll actually catch up. Then again, who knows, maybe you won't." And another punch, this one to the gut. "Can you stop punching me."
"Then stop making a fool out of me!"
"Ok, ok. Maybe I do have a selfish reason to ask you to be my sparring buddy." He just looked at me, and then shook his head. "So, are you in or not?"
"Would your harpy be alright with that?" I couldn't help smile at that.
"I think she would, as long as I do other things. Besides, why do you keep calling her a harpy?"
"Her blasted screaming. I swear, where did you find her? She has the voice to make your ears bleed. I know my woman has powerful lungs, but yours is downright deadly."
"Why thank you." I couldn't help laugh at the smirk he gave. "At least Bulma knows to hit where it hurts."
"And another thing, you damn bastard! Why the hell you offered my woman instead of yours?" I started laughing. "Answer me clown!"
"Did she even tell you about what she had to go through since she met me?" He gave me a puzzling face. "She's practically used to having people see her. So, what's one more show off gonna do?" And that is where I felt he broke one of my ribs. "So, she didn't tell you. Want me to?" He stared at me, looked away, and then said fine. "But once I'm done, promise you won't kill anyone."
"If you don't tell me know, I'm going to start by killing you!" Touchy. When I was done telling him, well the ones I remembered, his face looked so red it had me dying of laugher. "I don't believe you!"
"Hey. Give me some credit. I'm not a lair, and I didn't understand at the time. So, it made perfect sense to offer Bulma." Oh, he looked ready to kill me. "Hey. Remember, I kept my end. So, you keep yours."
"I won't kill anyone, but I sure as hell going to beat the living shit out of you!" Super touchy.
I stood up right, and couldn't help smile. "Out of everyone that tried to kill me, and I've known, you're the only one who's been honest with me. Thanks." He just looked away. "So, do you still want to go a quick round before heading back?"
"Quick is an understatement." With that we got into our stance, and went at it.
…
I'm so glad I agreed to let the boys have one more week off. And I'm so surprised at the location Bulma choose for the ceremony. It was absolutely lovely, especially with how the cherry blossom booming. It made this whole thing look magical. I was so grateful for Bulma's help in all of this. She even found someone to help tailor my mother's dress. And we even found Goku a new suit. I didn't get to see it, but Bulma promised it was a good one. Even the boys were helping out.
This was among all our friends, and families. So, it was very small compared to our actual wedding. Which made this all feel even more special. I wasn't getting the princess treatment, which also made me feel good. Videl even help set up the bouquet, which was also perfect. My Gohan really found a wonderful young lady. I couldn't even be more proud. And this time around I rewrote a different set of vows. One that made me smile and give me a warm feeling, as I tried to memorize them. Thankfully Dende was going to give us the honors, and he'll help out in remembering what we wrote. This was just perfect.
…
Today's the day, and I couldn't stop feeling nervous. I'm so thankful my sons were helping out. I was also thankful Gohan help me write new vows for Chichi. Since this time around I actually knew and understood my feelings. Plus, I didn't feel my old vows wasn't strong enough for how I felt for my Chichi. I meant every word then, but I wanted this time to actually pour my soul into it. She deserves it, after all.
As the ceremony started, I couldn't help continued to feel nervous. It's almost like the first time all over again. Just this time I'm fully aware of what it means. When I spotted Chichi walking to me, I felt my heart just stop. The most beautiful woman in the whole universe was radiating. It took Gohan to snap me out of my daze. It really was like the first time, just I wasn't drooling this time around.
"You know me better than anyone else in this world, and somehow still you manage to love me. You are my best friend and one true love. There is still a part of me today that cannot believe that I'm the lucky one who is married to you. For you are my everything, and knowing I am yours makes me the happiest man alive. Even death can't keep us apart, because I am yours for eternity."
We were drowned by a wave of awes, and all I could admire was how my beautiful wife had happy tears.
…
"…because I am yours for eternity." I was so moved by my Goku's words, that I was on the verge of crying. I felt so loved, and lucky to have him. And the way he looked at me, I didn't want to look away.
"You are my inspiration and the fire that keeps me going. You are the magic of my days. You help me laugh through all the hard times. You provide a safe place for me to be myself. You make me feel on top of the world. You are more of an amazement to me, each day I rediscover you. You are the greatest love of my life and the next. You are lodged in my heart that the key is forever lost. You are the air that I breathe, and without you I was lost. You are my eternity, and that's where I'll stay forever and ever."
Another wave of awes were heard, and the smile Goku gave me was breathtaking. The moment we were told to kiss, Goku really took my breath away. And I wouldn't want it any other way.
…
During the after party, my parents looked so happy. Me and Goten even witness dad dancing with mom. They looked so happy and in the moment. Videl was next to me, as we watched my parents. "Your mom looks absolutely gorgeous." I told her thank you. I always found it funny how everything doesn't look twice at my mom, when she wore her traditional clothing. But the moment she wore something different, all eyes are on her. Bulma once mentioned how mom looked older than her. It made mom sad. "That wasn't nice of Bulma." Heck, it's Bulma. "But still." Bulma never seen my mom with her hair down. Plus, mom actually looks younger than she is. "Uh? I don't follow."
"How old do you think my mom was?"
"Early 40s"
"She's 37." Videl gave me the most shock face I have ever seen.
"You're lying. Currently she looks in her late 20s."
"Mom is mom." She just shook her head. The rest of the event was pretty funny. Krillin told weird stories about dad. And dad kept telling him to shut up. I never thought I'll see the day my dad got embarrassed. Yamcha even told how dad acting during the 23rd tournament, after mom yelled at him. Oh boy, now that was funny. Dad had a red face the whole time. Yet mom was laughing. It felt nice to see like that. Also knowing how mom affected dad back then was nice to hear.
…
I'm going to punch Yamcha and Krillin for this. What's made this worse, was even Vegeta was laughing at this. I can't believe my friends. They really are trying to embarrass me. "But you're enjoying yourself." She's right, but still. Then when Krillin and Yamcha got up to the part of my reaction when Chichi told me about the promise, I thought I was going to die all over again. I can't believe I asked her if I was even conscious when I made the promise. Stop laughing. "Never. You really made me mad when you asked that. Now I have every right to laugh about it." As long as I still… "Shut it Goku." I couldn't help smile at her.
Once it was all over, it was time to go home. I was thankful Piccolo said he'll wait be the house. It made it easier to instant transmission everyone home. Once home, it was time to get out of this stuffy suit. We told the boys good night, and went to our room. Once inside, I locked the door and walked over to my perfect Chichi. "Do you need help taking that off?" She playful hit my arm, before turning around. "Are you going to kick me again?"
"If you give me a reason to." We giggled at that. Once I unzipped her, I watched the dress leave her wonderful body. My suit was becoming stuffier. She turned around. "Do you need help out of that?"
"Yes." She sure was taking her time underdressing me, but at least I got a good view. The rest of the night was spent trying to stay quiet, as we loved each other. My wife is just perfect.
