Really sorry about the long wait, my mom is still suffering and a lot had been going on at home. Hope you enjoy, though! ^_^
It was now seven in the morning and the sun appeared to just be rising from above the water. Goku had just woke up and at first didn't recognize the scenery, he noticed that Chi-Chi was laying on the bed next to him. A sense of panic ensured as he realized he wasn't where he was supposed to be at. Master Roshi's house. "Am I still at Bulma's house? I wonder if Krillin is still here, if he is that means we're both going to be in trouble.", Goku sighed. He tried to wake Chi-Chi up, but she wouldn't even so much as flinch in her sleep. Goku gave up and walked towards the door, when he heard something that sounded like a camera. Where was the noise coming from? He wondered if the computer was doing that, so he checked but the computer appeared to be turned off. Goku shrugged and left for the bottom floor of the house.
Goku went down the steps and found everyone still sleeping, including Krillin and Bulma. As he walked over to his bald-headed friend, his head begin to pound more than usual. Quickly sitting in a chair, he watched as Krillin almost fell off the chair he was on. "Krillin are you awake? We have to go home now.", he told his friend. Krillin stood up, his facial expression was enough to tell that he was dizzy. After a little while, they gathered themselves and headed for Master Roshi's house in a hurry. "I have one question. What the heck happened last night? Did we even get anything done? Uh, that was two questions, whatever.", he paused and shifted he head towards Goku for an answer. "Don't ask me, I've been wondering the same thing". As they were passing through the many streets, there was a feeling that the two boys were being singled out. A lot of unfamiliar faces were pointing at them and laughing. A group of girls stared, "I heard that he...that girl who wears those buns in her hair all the time". Both boys managed to hear those words, but couldn't make out what the middle of the sentence was. Goku blushed as Krillin gulped, both sprinting off into the distance.
Anxiously peering through the blinds, Master Roshi was livid at the fact that the boys were just now coming into his line of vision. He tapped his foot out of annoyance and watched as they ran up the steps to the house. Goku and Krillin stood terrified as their mentor opened the door. "And where were you two this whole time?", Master Roshi questioned without letting them talk. "I expected you guys to be back within two hours from the time the event started, but yet you're just now showing up! Could have at least called you know, instead of having me think the worst!", he continued yelling. The teenagers held their heads down in shame. What were they going to tell him? Finally, they were able to walk in, so they sat on the red couch in the room. Master Roshi scratched his head and looked at them, "You didn't do anything that you might need to tell, right"? What in the world was this old man implying? Goku's stomach started to churn, the feeling came back so suddenly. Krillin sensed an unwanted talk of some sort coming along, one that he didn't want to hear what-so-ever. "Girls and drinking are a mix that boys should try to stay away from, especially when it comes to late-night parties. The last thing you two need is a call from a girls' father...if you know what I mean.", with that last word he laughed his always irritating laugh.
That's when the phone rung and Master Roshi picked it up. "Are the other kids awake, yet? I wonder what Bulma and Chi-Chi are doing.", Goku thought to himself. Krillin watched the sun almost at its peak, probably for this time. From their earlier run, Master Roshi's silly lecture, and time being wasted it was now a quarter after ten. The day was already playing out weirdly. "Alright, I'll send them over, Sweet Cakes...I mean Sweetie...I am not a pervert!", Master Roshi screamed into the phone, embarrassed. He turned around to Goku and Krillin while clearing his throat. "Master Roshi, what happened?", Krillin asked quite nervously. "That was Bulma, she asked if you two could go back to her house and look at her new computer, it's urgent. By the way, you two owe me an explanation later on!", he laughed then disappeared into the bathroom. They both sighed because they just ran a couple of miles from her house and here they were, going back. Krillin stood up first to stretch, "Brilliant, Bulma, absolutely brilliant. Did she just realize that we were gone?".
It took a while before they arrived at her house. Bulma was standing in front of her door, and motioned for the boys to follow her. Once all three were in the room, Bulma turned the computer on to click on something. "Wait until you guys see this, you're in for a shock!", she laughed. Krillin and Goku just looked at her blankly. Then, a black screen came up with video footage. What the boys saw made their jaws drop, unfortunately Goku seemed embarrassed at what was on the screen. "Goku, what is that?", Krillin fell to the floor with tears in his eyes. "Awe, looks like our friend is more than just friends with Chi-Chi.", Bulma was also crying out of laughter, along with Krillin. Poor Goku didn't know what to do so he fled from the house and went to some unknown location. "Why are they making fun of me? I didn't do anything...I don't even remember how or when that happened. What would Chi-Chi think if they showed that clip?", he buried his head into his knees.
Bulma and Krillin finally stopped laughing and realized that Goku was gone. "I think we took things a little too far, now I feel completely guilty.", Bulma said while Krillin nodded his head in agreement. They decided that it would a good time to start searching everywhere. "So, here are we going to look first, Miss Genius?", Krillin asked sarcastically. The two had only walked to the front of the door, wasting time. "What is that supposed to mean? You're the one who laughed at Goku, you little midget!", now they were starting to go at it. "Uh, but you're the one who caught and told us to watch the whole thing and you also laughed!", Krillin shot back and held his hand in front of him to stop the argument. They were both acting stupid right now, over something immature that happened. "If I were Goku, where would I go to alone? Actually, there are a few places that he to go to, guess we have to check all of them". Krillin and Bulma finally left to find Goku.
The young black-haired teenager sat looking towards the lake in front of him. There were many tall cherry blossom trees surrounding him, including the one he sat under. Beautiful pink, lush leaves were blown off by the strong winds, landing on top of Goku's head. He grabbed one off and examined everything about it, from its color, structure, and to its shape. "I'm hungry and I need some food. I wonder if the guys are searching for me.", he stood up while looking at the top of the tree. The wind picked up and made the verdant, green grass sway as if it were water. "This tree will give me a better view of everything for sure"! Goku slowly gripped onto the trunk of the tree as he begun the climb upward. In the distance, Goku could see people walking and playing beyond the lake. "Chi-Chi, I apologize for whatever may have happened. Please forgive me.", he talked as if she were standing in front of him, he then closed his eyes thinking the worst was yet to come.
Goku heard some familiar voices from below the canopy of the tree he was hidden in. "This is the last place that we could possibly look, you know. Where are you, Goku?", the shouting voice was coming from no other than Krillin. Jumping down off the tree, Goku landed feet first onto Krillin's bald head. Bulma laughed while helping her best friends up, "We looked everywhere for you, it was because of our stupidity that you ran. We sincerely apologize for that.", she bowed her head towards Goku and smiled. Now was the time to instigate. "I don't understand why you guys were laughing at that clip. Did I miss something?", Goku asked sitting down and throwing grass into the air. He was completely clueless, so he couldn't figure out why Bulma and Krillin found things funny. Krillin, who was standing up beside Goku, winked at Bulma for a signal. Afterwards, Bulma begun her explanation, "Well, you see, when two people kiss it means that they love each other. That's not what we really...uh, you two were just behaving strangely when it happened. Now do you understand?", finishing her words, Bulma let out a sigh of relief. Who knew explaining stuff like this would be so awkward and complicated. It was just like having her, father informing her of boys and dating. Good grief!
The sound of nature was very relaxing and Krillin was on his way to sleep when Goku clapped his hands, Krillin's rest came to an abrupt end. "Makes perfect sense, love is food. So we're both hungry for food, right? Thanks, guys"! Krillin and Bulma could feel the tension flaring in their heads. How much of a moron could someone be? How stupid, but that was why everyone loved the care-free boy so much. "Do you feel like you always want to be with Chi-Chi?", Krillin asked. It was time to help a friend in need, by making his life that much easier. Goku stood somewhat dumbfounded by the question, his palms sweaty unlike while in combat. "Yes, I...feel like that a lot when I think about her.", Goku asked suddenly feeling nauseous. "So, do you think taking her out on a date would be nice?", Bulma posed to him. That was the one question she couldn't wait to ask. Such a thought had never sprung across the young teenager's mind before and it seemed to be a new concept. Even though Goku had heard of it before, but had no clue how he would go about doing it or what it even meant. Suddenly, he smiled really widely, "Dates are good to eat, they are one of my favorite fruits".
Krillin held is breath in, counting to five. "No! A date is when you take someone to a special place. In other words, if you like Chi-Chi than take her to a place you both will like." Now things were starting to make some sense to the young man, Goku looked out towards the kids in the distance. Everything was so peaceful. "What is all this about Goku dating Chi-Chi, guys?", the almost identical looking person, rudely asked. Leave it to a moron to shout a person's business outside with all ears to hear. Apparently, the person had been eaves dropping. "Yamcha, you moronic jerk, better not go off repeating any of what was discussed.", Bulma warned, punching him in the chest. Yamcha haste-fully planted a kiss on her cheek, receiving an eye roll from Krillin. "Awe, Goku and Chi-Chi are going to have babies next.", the brown-haired boy from the party marked. In return, the dimwitted teenager was chapped across his neck, from Yamcha who was actually covering himself in front of everyone else. Goku stood chuckling scratching the back of his head.
Needing to take a break, Goku and Krillin choose to walk back to Bulma's house and escape the torment that was probable to ensue. "Want to know what I just thought about, guys? We still have to work on that project and we don't have anything done!", Krillin exclaimed rather impatiently. Of course, Goku being the simple person he was, hadn't thought about the consequences.
Once again hanging out at the candy store in town, Goku was sitting down at the small round table that resembled a red and white mint ball. Candy wasn't the only thing the store sold, there were also safe drinks that were buy-able such as juice drinks. Goku was drinking a glass of chocolate milk and eating cookies when Chi-Chi happened to walk into the store. "Good evening, sir. I would like to purchase a box of cupcakes, please. Thanks!", she paid the owner of the store the yen that was needed. As she turned around she was startled at the sight of her crush and friend, sitting down innocently. Chi-Chi could barely control herself upon seeing Goku with a chocolate and cookie mustache. With his eyes shining as bright as diamonds, how could anyone not fall in love with him? "He is...adorable...I can't believe I found a guy like that. Don't know what the heck happened last night except for little bits here and there. Might we have...kissed?", Chi-Chi thought.
Goku finally looked up, realizing that the person standing in front of him was Chi-Chi, he was still occupied with his munching on the snack. Besides that his mind was partially blank, "What is a date again? Bulma and Krillin called me silly for thinking that I was supposed to eat them with Chi-Chi. Yeah, that's it! They said for me to take her to a special place...", Goku begin to cram the cookies into his mouth and then chugged his juice down. Chi-Chi covered her mouth and kindly laughed, "Good evening, Goku. From the looks of it, you seem to be enjoying yourself. Um, I wanted to know,", her nervousness was starting to catch up with her as she paused, "if you would go on a date with me?". At least he didn't have to do the talking, Goku just had to propose the place to her.
He stood up and held her in his arms like a new born baby, knowing where he was to be arriving at. Chi-Chi was in sheer shock thinking this moment would never happen, plus everyone else was staring at them. Goku headed out the door and used his new found ability to fly, "How is are you able to do this? This is unbelievable, insane...teach me how to do this sometime!", Chi-Chi was astounded by what was happening. The late Saturday skies were filled with a light purple and pink striped pattern, cool winds tapping the skin of the two teenagers. "I just learned it and I don't really know how. It wouldn't hurt to try teaching it to someone else, huh?", Goku answered back, smiling at Chi-Chi. Up ahead they were narrowing an area that seemed so surreal, a place that could only be reached in dreams: a creamy white sky, a beautiful, vast, aquamarine sea. Grass that was so soft and appeared to shimmer with every turn of the eye, land that seemed to go on for eternity. Harmless animals gazing around, peaceful sounds of nature.
This was absolutely Goku's most favorite place of all, he couldn't have chosen a better place for a first date. He carefully placed Chi-Chi onto her feet, watching her every moment. His stomach was starting to became a hot mess and Goku didn't know if he would be able to control that feeling again. "Wow, what is this place? You're really something else, you know.", she said walking around and then took the cupcakes out of the bag she was carrying with her. Goku eyed them immediately, "Can I have one, please?". He was handed one and within two bites was done with it. "Goku, even though we've known each other for a few years, we still don't know a lot about each other.", Chi-Chi was hoping that this was going to end on a really positive note for the both of them. Many hours passed by between the two sharing details, until they grew tired.
Krillin shook his head in thought about the past events, after listening to Goku and Chi-Chi tell about their night, "Remind me how everything went wrong again? Why is it so hard for us to remember what went on last night"? The gang of four had met up at a park this time around. It was slightly after eight, when they all heard what sounded like a herd of animals. "Dammit! Can't you guys ever stop following me around, geez? Ah, shit! Thanks, you idiots just blew my cover again.", Yamcha was ease dropping again and his friends were tagging along. Feeling embarrassed by her boyfriend's own actions, Bulma place her hands on her hips. Was he ever going to learn to stop being nosy? The next time he tried spying would be a time when he'd end up hearing something he didn't want to. "Yamcha?", the four friends asked wondering why he was listening. "Hey, what's up everyone? Just chilling out on the ground...you have to try it sometime.", Yamcha joked.
Bulma smacked him in anger, "Just what do you think you are doing? We are trying to have a very mature and personal conversation with Goku here, which you are interrupting. What do you want?". Yamcha stood up and dusted the dirt of his clothes, pointing at his infamous group of friends. "Would you mind doing the honors?", he bowed. It was the same male and female from the last two times, that Goku recognized. "We pored liquor into the drinks and every got drunk, ha!", the brown-haired boy laughed. Chi-Chi, Krillin, and Bulma looked at each other in fright. So, that had explained why no one could remember anything...they ended having hang overs. "Is liquor something yummy?", Goku asked making everyone hang their heads in shame.
"Chi-Chi and Goku, sounds really cute. Too bad, it's not a secret anymore.", the girl with brown haired said snootily.
Update as soon as possible. Thanks for reading!
