AN- RAAHHH CHAPTER SEVENTEEN ENJOY

chapter seventeen- announcements and long-lasting memories

Two weeks had passed since then as it was now June. A week ago, Gohan had started getting therapy after Bulla encouraged and reassured Gohan that they accept any patient of any age to get therapy after he felt afraid that they might kick him out for being too "old".

Though it wasn't like they would tell that he was 50 in the first place, his therapist was quite shocked by how old he was as most people were when he tells them. It was also funny because his therapist was only in his 30s and Gohan still looked younger than him.

Enough about that. Right now, the two were training in the backyard of the duplex, giving it everything they got as Bulla was a bit more sluggish this time and got more tired as she would revert to her base form every five minutes of their training. Right now she was sitting down and panting.

This had Gohan worried, reverting to his base form as he ran over to check Bulla's condition. "Are you ok? What's wrong?" He asked worriedly, he got her up, feeling her forehead. Bulla blushed at Gohan's undoubted care for her and chuckled quietly. "You're so caring. But I honestly don't know myself." She responds, not knowing the cause of her lack of energy.

A weak and small Ki was then sensed as the two felt it when it finally appeared. They were both shocked by the small Ki signature as they looked at each other. "You know what this means right, Gohan?" Bulla smiled with excitement and glee as Gohan nodded happily.

The man then picked Bulla up and swung her around, like what he did to Videl when she was pregnant with Pan. "We're pregnant!" He laughed cheerfully as Bulla was laughing too, she was enjoying getting swung around by her lover.

Gohan was done and finally put Bulla down, kneeling to meet eye level with her stomach. "So you're the reason why Bulla wasn't gaining enough energy for training! That's ok, you matter more!" He kept laughing with excitement as this was going to be his second child. Bulla kept giggling too, feeling excited to have a child as well.

Gohan got up to his normal height. "Should we tell the others about this news?" He asked, kissing his girlfriend lovingly on the lips. Bulla kisses back and shakes her head. "Nope! Maybe when I'm a bit bigger. Right now, we can look for some baby clothes or..." She eyes Gohan, smirking with lust in her eyes.

Gohan blushed a deep red as he was ok with it. Maybe when Bulla was a bit bigger that's when they stop and do it once in a while, but right now it was time to love his beautiful girlfriend as they went back into the house.

Over the months after they had figured out Bulla was pregnant, the heat and passion between the two lovers never stopped. Though there were some ups and downs like with Bulla's morning sickness, Gohan was always there to help his dear lover through her pregnancy.

They had also went to the doctor and Bulla now had to get check ups once every three weeks, she and the baby were doing just fine. Though Bulla became extra hungry because of the little bund of joy growing inside of her.

It was now September and Bulla was three months in and growing steadily and her belly was now protruding a bump, they still haven't told the family as they didn't know how they would react to Bulla getting pregnant before they got married. Bulla knows that her father wouldn't care but she didn't know about Chi Chi's side of things.

"Are you sure you wanna tell them now, Gohan?" Bulla asked thoughtfully, rubbing her belly and Gohan nodded. They had called everyone to the house as this was a bit nerve-racking, but they can power through this. Gohan just hoped that his mom's ideologies about pregnancy and when to get pregnant wouldn't come into play.

When everyone showed up at the duplex, Vegeta had a smirk on his face as he knew what this was about. He can tell that Trunks and Goten knew about it as well. They already knew that Bulla was pregnant but wanted the two to say it themselves.

Once everyone had sat down on their couch, Bulla puts her hand on her belly and holds Gohan's hand. They were intertwined as this felt exciting but also so stressful at the same time. Gohan took a deep breath and began to speak. "We have an announcement to make." Gohan started off, glancing at Bulla as she was smiling through this.

Gohan smiled back, feeling Bulla's feelings flutter with positivity. "We...we're pregnant." He spoke calmly as he watched the faces of his and Bulla's loved ones light up. He smiled at that, looking at his mother as he also saw her face light up too.

A wave of relief filled his face as Bulma came up to hug her daughter. "That's great, sweetheart! I can't believe I'll have another grandchild to take care of!" She laughed wholeheartedly as Chi Chi also stood up, smiling so softly at her son. "Your second child...oh, I remember your eyes when you saw Pan for the first time, but now you're going to have another one." She spoke, she had always known that Gohan wanted more kids besides Pan, though it never came to be.

Chi Chi could see that Gohan was so happy and Bulla was too, she couldn't possibly destroy that and shouldn't since it happened at the right time and circumstances. Not to mention that it was natural. "Goku would be so proud to have a third grandchild..."

Gohan smiled softly at his elderly mother. "He would..." He sighed quietly. The mention of his father didn't hurt that much anymore, but knew that it did affect other people. Marron stayed by her lovers as she watched the two announce the pregnancy. She held her belly, sighing sadly but gently.

It had been months since her results, and is thinking of changing her mind. She could feel her husband's emotions about this, they felt...bittersweet. Though yes they did have Lynn and loved her very much, she couldn't separate her husbands from having a Saiyan child. She knew that they didn't care if she was fertile or not, but she couldn't bare to see them sad like this.

She needed to talk to Bulma right after all of this was done.

Vegeta was smirking at this and pats Gohan on the shoulder, pulling him into a hug. "Congratulations Gohan." He told the man and pulled away immediately. He wondered if he should ask for a fight after this with Gohan.

The cool winds of November hit Gohan and Bulla's faces as they walked the streets of West city, their hands intertwining as Bulla was growing bigger each day. She was now seven months pregnant, and it has also been a year since she and Gohan first talked in that cafe, and since Bulla broke up with Pan.

Gohan planned on taking her to the cafe for their date, Bulla already knew and she was ecstatic. A lot had happened in September and in October. Marron had told Bulma about her plan to go to Namek, Trunks, and Goten had heard about it and but tried to tell Marron that it was alright but she didn't budge. The two Saiyan males eventually gave up and wanted to go with their wife to Namek. In the end, they did change their minds and a now 11-month-old Lynn is being watched by Android 18 and Krillin.

They also later found out the gender of the baby, they were going to have a baby boy as this was exciting news. They didn't care what gender the baby will be, they were just happy the baby was healthy.

Bulla had also turned 28 in October.

Gohan walked with Bulla to the cafe and the men opened the door for his pregnant lover, smiling at her dearly as Bulla stepped inside. The two sat down at the table too far they met up, Gohan was nearing closer to the door and Bulla sat across him. They were both smiling at each other as the waitress came up to get their orders.

After they had ordered the feeling of love and giddiness filled the two as so many memories of this meeting flooded by. "You know, if I didn't notice you in this spot of the cafe, I don't know what I would do when going forward," Bulla spoke with sincerity in her voice and eyes. Her feelings turned a bit sad as if she didn't approach Gohan on that day, that would probably been the last time she ever saw him.

Gohan felt touched by the words as he was also grateful for that encounter, Bulla had turned his life around and he couldn't be more happier than he was in the 50 years of life he has now. "I'm glad too..."

The waitress brought their orders and sets them down, it was the same waitress a year ago and the two both smiled at her while she smiled back immediately and left the two alone.

The two ate their food as each time they did visit, the food was always so great. The cafe owners are the only people that know about their age difference since Gohan had been going here since he was in his 20s. They don't particularly care, since Bulla had lit Gohan's mental health up like a fiery blaze. The therapy he's been getting also helped him a lot.

After they were done with the food, Gohan had left a tip as Bulla winced lightly at her baby kicking her stomach. "He's starting to become lively now..." She told Gohan, rubbing her big belly gently. Just two months left and they get to see their bundle of joy. This was exciting.

The memories the two shared were magnificent as they knew each other so well now. This, this would just be the beginning of their family.
