I am sorry that it has been so long since I posted another chapter but here you guys go! And I made it extra long and will be working on the next chapter later tonight ^_^ I hope you all like this chapter. And thank you all once again for reading and reviewing, I apprecate it all so much!
It was five thirty in the morning and Capsule Corp household was dark and quiet. Trunks had his new lab downstairs in the basement. Bulma had gotten all her unused and extra tools together for Trunks. She also created a work station for him with cabinets on the side to keep any of his work in. Trunks had been skipping his training due to him experimenting in the in the lab, which he didn't mind much because the air still seemed pretty tense between he and his father. He had trouble making eye contact with Vegeta and his fears and some of his aggravation came back. Vegeta did stop repeatedly telling him he needed to train more but he also had stopped talking about other things as well. When Trunks thought about it, training was really the only thing Vegeta knew what to talk about with his son. Overall, Trunks was pretty happy. He had to get his mother to leave him alone when he was in the lab though because she would hover over him and "give him hints" about what wires should go where.
It almost seemed as if the roles between his parents had changed. His mother used to have little to talk to Trunks about, she would play games with him but they never had much to talk about and Vegeta was the one he hung out with most often. He would make sure he took on all his forms properly while training. His father would hover over him, making sure he would control his power properly and take the correct stances when sending out a ki blast. Now it was the opposite, Vegeta would have small talk with is son while they watched television after dinner and Bulma was the one correcting mistakes and getting in his personal space. Apparently whatever he tried, one parent would always be watching closely over him to make sure there were no mistakes.
His mother wasn't as mean as his father was when he made a mistake. An explosion had happened about a week after the lab had been finished and Bulma went running out of her lab to make sure her son was okay. Even Vegeta had stopped training to make sure everything was okay, mainly because Bulma was starting to get a pretty big belly which hindered her ability to lean over the counter and work on things. He felt her ki panic so he thought she had done something to hurt herself or the child. When he got there, Bulma was standing outside of the lab door that was starting to open. Trunks' face was red and covered in oil. He looked at both his parents who were standing there with their arms crossed.
"What did you happened to blow up this time son?" Vegeta asked.
"It was just a little bit of concoction I was working on. It was supposed to be in place of using oil to keep the components lubricated. It worked for a moment until it got hot and then, well," Trunks said as he scratched the back of his head, "hehe, you know the rest."
"Is my baby okay? Come here Trunks, let me look you over." Bulma said.
"Bulma, I think he is fine. He doesn't need you to check him. He's half-saiyan, that means he can at least withstand a simple explosion such as that." Vegeta stated, looking at his wife who's face was starting to sour.
"Well that's just fine and dandy Vegeta, but if I want to make sure my son is okay, I am going to do that." She retorted as she stuck out her tongue.
"If he can get close enough to you right now. That child is getting huge in there and so are you." Vegeta retaliated with a smile.
"You think you are so smooth with your little comebacks and your nasty insults. I'd like to point out that it is your fault I look like this. It's your damn seed that caused this child to be inside of me." Bulma spat back, tears filling up in her eyes. Trunks stood there watching his parents get into one of their usual spats with each other. He usually liked watching these but lately his mom had been getting so emotional he couldn't stand it.
"I'm pretty sure it was YOU who caused all of this to happen. YOU were the one who wanted to celebrate YOUR new invention's success. I came in from training and you had my favorite leather outfit on." Vegeta barked back and Trunks was on his way anywhere but near his lab at this time. He took off flying down the hall, he refused to let himself hear another word. "Besides you wouldn't let me leave the room. You said you just had to have me no matter what you had to do. Do you remember this?"
Bulma's hands went on her hips and she didn't say anything. She started to smile but she didn't want to let Vegeta win this match even though he was correct. She had kept in locked in the room and seduced him in celebration of her success. It's not like he fought to get away from her either. He had been winning too many of their quarrels lately and it wasn't going to happen this time. "I don't give a shit if I tried to get you to give me attention for once, its still your damn sperm that got me pregnant, thus making you responsible for this bump I have here." She said as she rubbed her stomach.
Vegeta had stopped listening to Bulma and was watching her rub her stomach. She wouldn't let him touch her stomach lately because she didn't want him to find out what the gender of the child was. She hadn't gotten to the doctor's yet and she didn't want him to know before she did so all touching was out of the question. She even put a stop to them sleeping in the same bed and him concentrating on her too long. Of course this was starting to frustrate him because they've always slept in the same bed for the last ten years. He was stuck sleeping in one of the guest rooms upstairs and he just wanted to have his bed back.
"Hello! Vegeta?" Bulma said as she snapped her fingers in front of his eyes. "I am not going to let you figure it out so just stop."
"Why can't I just tell you what the gender is? Why do you have to go to the damn doctor's anyways?" Vegeta asked.
"Because I want to see the ultrasound of the baby to find out, otherwise the ultrasound won't be as exciting. Oh and you are coming with me to the appointment." Bulma said as she started walking back to her lab.
"Wait a minute woman," Vegeta moved forward and grabbed her arm to stop her. She spun around and looked at him with a grin. Vegeta narrowed his eyes. "I refuse to go to an appointment with you."
"If you want to know the gender of this child is, you will be accompanying me to the doctors."
"You know that all I have to do is touch your stomach and I'd be able to figure out what that child is." Vegeta said with a smirk on his face and he stepped closer to Bulma. Bulma started to laugh and in turn stepped backwards away from Vegeta.
"No you can't Vegeta. You promised you wouldn't do that. You said you would wait until after I went to the doctors to find out. Don't blow it now, are you weak?" she added just to dig under his skin some more.
"You think I am weak do you?" he questioned as he rose up in the air and hovered over her. "If I wanted to, I could easily take control of this situation, and you will find you are the weak one in this situation."
"Nothing like picking on someone who is pregnant to call weak. I'd love to see you deal with the pains and changes I've been going through lately darling. I bet you couldn't make it a weak."
"Who said you deal with the pregnancy well? All you do is complain, 'my back hurts', 'my breast hurt', 'my ribs hurt', 'my feet are swelling', 'I'm getting so big'. I really don't think that is handling the situation in a strong manor." He said as he placed his feet back down on the ground and he leaned up against the hallway walls. "Besides, I think Trunks and I have to deal with the worst part of the pregnancy."
"And what's that supposed to mean?" Bulma asked as she crossed her arms and approached Vegeta. The look in her eyes could make anyone rethink how they were going to answer their question, everyone but Vegeta that is. He was not scared of her and she was not scared of him. The only reason for a hesitation from Vegeta was him coming up with something low that would hit her in the gut.
"We have to put up with your normal hormonal changes but these past five months have been horrible dealing with a different being from one day to the next. Hell, last month your son was scared to confront you in the morning. He begged me to talk to you first to make sure you weren't flying your hormones all over the kitchen during breakfast."
"I haven't been that bad!" Bulma protested.
"You have no idea woman how moody you've been lately." Vegeta said as he decided to lay off some since he could tell she was starting to get a little too upset for their normal banter. He had to be careful with pushing her lately because she was likely to burst out in tears instead of an insult.
Two weeks earlier, they were going out to the store and somehow she had convinced both her men to go with her, which hardly ever happened. While they were out shopping, Vegeta was getting bored while walking through one of the baby stores so he decided that he was going to head out of the store for some fresh air. Trunks and Bulma were busy looking at some new furniture and toys to put in the baby's room so he didn't think she would notice. That was until Trunks came running out of the store looking for him. "Dad, Mom really wants you to come back into the store. She's getting really mad that you left."
Upon reentering the store she was waiting for him with her arms crossed. She took her normal powerful stance she used when her plans were not going her way and stared at Vegeta as he walked closer. He was ready for this fight, he had so many different phrases he could use to cut every one of her statements and questions down to nothing. All it took was him asking "What the hell do you need me here for? You and him obviously didn't need me for the last two hours, so why do you want with me now?"
He watched her reaction happen almost in slow motion and it was nothing that he had expected. Normally she would have retorted quickly with some smart-alick remark to counter his, not this time. Slowly her face went from hard stone to mud. Everything began to sink. First her shoulders went down, then her arms fell from her chest, she looked down at the ground and then he watched a tear fall down her face and fall to the floor. Trunks looked up at his father, his eyes were almost in a panic because he knew what was coming next. Vegeta knew as well but he still hadn't learnt how to reverse this reaction. Trunks grabbed his mother's hand and led her towards the door. As they passed Vegeta, she started crying. It was a long ride home because Vegeta had to fly the 'damn contraption' because Bulma was too upset.
"Well if I am so bad, why are you bothering to have this conversation with me? How come you didn't turn around and go right back to your damn training? My god you are such an idiot!"
Vegeta's mind went busy, should he come back with something smart or should he try to undo this argument. "Bulma…I…"
"MOM!" Trunks yelled as she came flying down the hallways. "Mom, Dad!"
Vegeta sighed with relief, he would get out of this mess for now. 'I can't stand this for much longer. I wasn't around much for Trunks' pregnancy but damn she wasn't this bad.'
Both his parents turned towards their son and asked, "What?"
"You have to come upstairs to see this! It's so cool! Come on!" Trunks grabbed his mother's hand and started to pull her forward.
"Son contain yourself, nothing can be that excited and if it's another 'cool looking bug' you are going to be punished for a week. No lab and training with me all day every day for that said week." Vegeta said authoritatively.
"Dad it's nothing like that. Just come with me please." Trunks said as he pulled his mother and looked at his father with pleading eyes to follow.
Vegeta crossed his arms and let Bulma and Trunks walk past him and he would proceed to follow. As Bulma walked past him, she seemed to purposely brush up against him. He was confused by the sign she was giving off but then a ki signature hit him. He stopped, it happened so quickly and then was gone he couldn't tell if it came from his new child or if it came from somewhere else. It had to have come from Bulma's body, she did it on purpose to tease him. He couldn't pick up enough of the signature to know the gender or even to figure out anything else. He grunted and followed suit down the hall.
While Vegeta and Bulma were continuing their quarrel with each other down by the labs, Trunks decided that he was going to head outside for some fresh air. He walked down the rounded hallway that lead to the kitchen. He figured he would grab himself something to snack on and be on his way. He went to the fridge and rose up to the top and snagged the candy his mother put up there to keep away from him. He laughed as he sank back down to the floor, "I think mom forgets I'm part Saiyan sometimes." He ripped open the bag and threw several candies into his mouth and proceeded out of the door.
As he pushed the door open he saw Goku, Chi-Chi, Videl, Gohan, and Goten walking up towards the house. It surprised Trunks because usually he could sense if they were coming over, especially Goten's signature but this time he couldn't sense them at all. Goten and Trunks ran up to each other and gave each other a hug. It had been a while since they saw each other because Trunks had gotten himself into his new hobby.
"Hi Trunks! I've been so bored lately. We need to hang out more often, okay?"
"Hehe, sorry Goten. Mom made me my own lab, and I've been busy in there lately. Actually, I can show you what I'm working on if you have time." Trunks said as he looked towards the rest of Goten's family. Hoping that they would say it was okay for the two trouble makers to go off and play.
Silence crossed the group and Chi-chi nudged Goku to speak. "Trunks, we actually came here as a surprise for your parents." Goku stopped and laughed for a moment. "More like for your mother. We thought we'd have a little party for her. Your grandmother set it up and invited us."
Trunks looked at him for a moment with a quizzical look before Chi-Chi decided to ask, "Didn't your grandmother tell you that we were all coming?"
Trunks looked at everyone standing there and then shook his head slowly, trying desperately to see if he was told this and somehow had forgotten about it. He actually hadn't seen his grandparents for quite a while. He had been busy in his lab lately or training that he didn't go and visit them. That's probably why he hadn't heard about this get together from his grandmother.
"No, I never heard about this party. Sorry." Trunks said. "Is that why you guys are suppressing your energies so my father doesn't sense you?"
"You got it Trunks." Gohan chimed in with a smile and stepping forward. "Why don't you go get your grandmother and that way we can find out exactly where we should put the food we brought."
Trunks looked at Gohan "Yes sir" He mocked and saluted him.
Gohan yelled back laughing, "Hey you little brat, I'll kick your butt just like I do Goten."
"You do not kick my butt!" Goten jumped. Gohan and Goku both chuckled loudly at the disappointment on the little face of Goten.
"You know, we should probably stay quiet so Vegeta and Bulma don't hear us." Videl chimed in and all three boys went quiet.
"But this is no fun just standing here and waiting like this." Goku said as he tapped his pointer fingers together. "I can't fly, can't spar with my boys, and now I can't laugh. How boring?"
"Yeah, Mom, this is boring." Goten followed suit with his father and sat down on the ground.
Videl, Chi-Chi, and Gohan all started laughing quietly at the two spiting images sitting on the ground pouting because they couldn't do anything but wait.
Trunks led his mother and father into the living room with a huge grin on his face. When they turned the corner Bulma and Vegeta were surprised to see the Son family sitting on their couches. Chi-Chi leapt up and hugged Bulma while eyeing Vegeta out of the corner of her eye. She still just had a weird vibe around him, mainly because of the rivalry between her husband and him. "Look at you Bulma. Your stomach is getting so big. How far along are you again?"
"Only five months." Bulma replied as everyone got up and moved in closer to the two.
"Well congratulations again." Goku said as he slapped Vegeta on the back. "So how have you two been doing?" Vegeta and Bulma looked at each other for a split second, making eye contact to challenge the other to say one thing, anything in complaint about the others actions over the last couple months.
Bulma decided that she wasn't going to walk into this trap again. Goku always liked to ask just the right questions that would get couples going at each other. He never meant harm but he always seemed to cause it. "Why are you all here anyways? It's such a great surprise but how did you get in under radar?"
"This was your mother's idea actually" Videl answered. "She said you seemed sort of stressed lately and deserved to have a party and since we all haven't been together in some time, we figured it sounded like a lovely idea."
"Yeah and I wanted to see how big you have gotten." Goten added and received a smack in the head from Gohan. Goten looked up at Gohan with tears in his eyes. "Hey why did you do that? I was being honest."
"And you were being completely rude. I thought you had more manors than that Goten."
"Hey, hey Gohan, you don't have to be mean to your little brother." Goku said as he walked over to his youngest and rubbed his head. Gohan just sighed and mumbled "Sorry".
"Videl, you said my mother set this up, correct? Where is she? I would have thought she would be around to enjoy her festivity with us." Bulma said, turning her attention away from the boys.
"Yes she said that she had to go check that the caterers were doing everything correctly and then she and your father would be in to join us for dinner."
"Yeah when's dinner?" Gohan and Goku said in unison and then looked at each other and laughed, causing everyone else to laugh along with them. Everyone but Vegeta who was slightly annoyed that everyone was over.
"Can't you two boys ever think about anything but food?" Chi-Chi asked, then turned to Bulma and talked as if no one else was there but those two. "I mean seriously, if Goku isn't gone out training for three days with one of his sons, he is asking me to cook more food. I hardly ever get any time in to talk with him or cuddle on the couch."
"Aww but Chi-Chi, I try to spend time with my sons because of the time I missed from them. I'm sorry." Goku said as he walked over to Chi-Chi and put his arms around her waist. Chi-Chi smiled but she didn't say anything to Goku to prove that she had heard any of his words.
"So have you two been getting any kind of quality time in?" Chi-Chi continued as she leaned into Goku's arms. There was silence and a snicker from Trunks before he left the room with Goten to head out of the room to play. It was grown up talk time and there was no way they would be caught dead staying in here, especially now that the subject had changed to his parents.
"Actually I've been pretty busy working on the newest break through with work and I've been having a lot of meetings lately with my father. We're trying to get everything ahead before I go on my maternity leave. The damn corporation has a panic attack if one paper clip falls in the wrong place and I'm not there to pick it up. So I figure if I can get ahead with my work then it shouldn't be a problem." Bulma answered very business like.
"I'd just wished she stay out of that damn lab." Vegeta muttered. Everyone turned to look at him. Whether it was because they forgot he had been standing over to the side in silence or because they knew that Bulma was about to lash back, they were all looking.
Bulma took a deep breath and tried to contain her anger because there were guest over but it just didn't work. "Oh so you would like me to fall behind on my work for Capsule Corp would you? I'm doing this for the better of my company. Besides would you prefer I worked on my things now or after the baby is born and I'm feeding the child in one arm and working on something in the other? Because I know you won't be helping me just like you copped out helping when Trunks was born." At these words, Videl sat down on the couch and closed her eyes, Gohan sat down next to her and pinched his nose between his eyes, and Chi-Chi and Goku both took several step back from the explosion that was about to partake in front of them.
Vegeta answered very calmly but at the same time very sternly. Normally he wouldn't even try to show any kind of affect but he wanted her and everyone else to know he meant what he was about to say. "Bulma, the only reason I worry about you working in the lab is because I don't want you or the child to get hurt when you are fiddling around with your contraptions. I do not understand why someone else cannot do this work. I care about the state of you and the child and I am going to help out when the child is born. I'd prefer if you were able to be off of work now and after the birth but I respect your wishes and do not complain when you go down to the lab. I do however state that I want you to be careful because I would not be able to forgive myself if I allowed you to go to that damn lab and get injured." And with that Vegeta turned and left the room.
Bulma paused as she watched her husband leave the room. She couldn't believe how caring he was being towards her and it made her feel like crap because she was putting him down and in front of their friends. "I'm so sorry Vegeta" she said in a half zombie like state before her knees gave and she feel on to the chair that was next to her. Tears welled up in her eyes and she buried her face into the palms of her hands. Chi-Chi looked up at Goku and nodded her head towards the door. He knew what that meant and he walked towards the door but before leaving he gave Bulma a hug. Videl nudged Gohan who looked pretty comfortable on the couch and motioned towards the door. He returned the nudge and looked at Videl, pleading that he wouldn't have to go get mixed up in between his father and Vegeta's conversation. Videl returned his look with a 'you really don't want to be here' look and Gohan grudgingly got off the couch and walked out of the room.
Videl got up and grabbed a few tissues and walked over to Bulma. "Really Bulma there isn't anything to be upset about. I think that is the first time I've ever seen some kind of real emotion out of that man. He was being truly honest and I think you should be happy he broke through that bubble."
Bulma grabbed one of the tissues from Videl's hand gave her a smile of thanks. She nodded but really couldn't get herself to speak. She had been thinking lately that he didn't want anything to do with her but after he said what he did, she realized that she was pushing him away just so he couldn't figure out what the gender was before her. She was being selfish and petty, like she used to be when she was back dating losers and everything had to be about her. Now she had a family and she should know better.
Outside, Vegeta walked over to his normal spot under the trees and sat down. He was ready for some meditation to get his mind off of things. The last thing he wanted was to feel Goku and Gohan close up on him from behind. "Really? Do you two idiots find it necessary to come bother me?"
"Come on Vegeta, we're your friends" Goku said and Vegeta snorted. "Besides the wives kind of pushed us out of the room. What were we supposed to do?"
"You think I care what you do Kakorot?"
Goku scratched his head and laughed. He looked at Gohan who shrugged and thought 'Like you look at me for suggestions on what to say to Vegeta, thanks dad'. Gohan decided that he would just walk over to the pond that was a short distance away and skip some rocks.
"So another child for you Vegeta, I still think it's funny."
"Oh and why is that?"
"Well, maybe not funny but well we are getting up in the years. I wouldn't think that you or Bulma would have wanted another." Vegeta didn't say anything but grunt so Goku quickly thought of something else to say. "You seem really protective of her this time."
"Kakorot, she is my wife and she does bare my child. Of course I'm going to make sure she is safe and doesn't do anything to harm either of them." Goku laughed out loud. "Damn-it, why are you always laughing?"
Goku stopped and sat down next to Vegeta, "It's just amazing how much you have changed since we first met like twenty something years ago."
"Atleast I know how to better myself, where as you have just gotten more stupid over the years."
"That was low, Vegeta. I'm not stupid, I just like to have a good time. It wouldn't hurt you to have fun and laugh sometimes."
"Great now you sound like my wife."
The two sat there in silence for a few moments before Goku's stomach growled. Vegeta turned and looked at him with a raised eyebrow. "Really Kakorot? You can't even sit in silence correctly."
"I can't help it. Chi-Chi made some of my favorite food and Mrs. Briefs has the caterers finishing the rest of the food and I can smell it. I can't help it if the thought of all that food is making my stomach talk."
Vegeta just sighed and closed his eyes, hoping that Goku would be quiet enough to let him get some of this meditation in. Little did he know, Trunks and Goten were about to ruin any chance of meditation to happen.
"Goten, you have to see what my mom and dad did for me!" Trunks said as they took off down one of the winding hallways.
"What is it, Trunks? You have to tell me what it is!" Goten pleaded.
"No you have to be patient, you'll see it when we get there." He said as they continued running down to his lab.
Finally he stopped at the entrance, and motioned towards the door. "Ta-da!"
"Wow! Is this what I think it is!" Goten said jumping.
"Yeah, mom gave me my own lab to work in. I've been messing with a lot of things lately, it's really cool. And the best part is dad hasn't been bugging me too much either. I get to choose when I want to train and when I come to the lab. I think I'm going to surprise my father and train with him in the morning that way I can work in here all day."
Goten had stopped listening to Trunks and was walking over to some of the beakers that had fluids in it, captivated by the one that seemed to keep changing colors. He picked it up and swung around quickly "Trunks what is this?"
"Don't touch anything you idiot. You could make things explode or something. I did earlier this morning" He said as he turned around and pointed at the one table that was nothing but broken pieces of table and glass. "My parents would be pissed if I made something explode again."
"Is there anything I can play with?" Goten said getting antsy.
"Actually there is one thing I made that we can play with. We can take it to my room and shoot it out of balcony." Trunks said as he walked over to a cabinet, floated up to the top and grabbed the key he had hidden and unlocked the door. "We can play with this!"
"Wow! That's amazing Trunks, did you make that?"
"Yup" Trunks said proudly. "If you grab that blue bucket on the bottom shelf we can take this up to my room."
"Okay." Goten grabbed the bucket and closed the door to the cabinet. "What's in the bucket though?"
"Just wait till we get up to my room. Man you are so impatient."
Goten followed Trunks in silence up to his room. When they got there, Trunk motioned Goten to follow him over to the balcony and Trunks laid his contraption down. "Okay Goten, I'll tell you what this is," he said as he pushed a button on top and legs came out of the bottom and it stood up on its own. It looked like a telescope but it didn't' get as big on the end. "Basically it's a launch gun. We put the stuff that's inside that bucket and we aim it through this little spot and push this button, after that, away it goes."
Goten placed the bucket down and opened it. "Hey this looks like little bits of Buu."
"Yeah when I made the slime, the chemicals that I mixed made it change to pink so I couldn't get the color to change. That's the real reason for the explosion this morning but you cannot tell my parents. If you do they won't let me play with this." Trunks bent over and picked up a little bit of his slime. "Come on let's find something that we can shoot at."
"Hey, look. Our dads are sitting out there under that tree, I wonder why? I thought they were all talking in the living room."
Trunks shrugged as he put the stuff inside of his launcher. "Who knows, but what do you want to shoot at? I'll let you choose first."
Goten spun around so quickly to look at Trunks. "Really? I get to pick first! That's so cool of you Trunks!" He said as he spun himself back around and searched for the perfect target. "How about….hm….maybe we could hit my brother."
"Okay sure, but the moment we shoot we need to duck down and suppress our energy so he won't figure out it's us. Got it?"
"Got it." He said with a thumbs up.
Trunks aimed his gun and made sure the correct trajectory was spot on. "Here Goten, you push the button."
"Alright!" Goten grabbed the controller and pushed the button. There was a loud noise and a huge explosion. The boys ducked down immediately and the blob flew out and headed straight for Gohan. Gohan managed to move out of the way and the goo that was made went flying into the water.
Gohan got up and flew over to the boys. He knew it was them with no mistake. Where else would that noise had come from? He landed on the balcony and looked at the boys who were crouched down on the ground. "So you thought you'd be able to hit me huh?"
Goten and Trunks stood up with smirks on their faces. "Yeah, I thought it would be fun." Goten said.
Trunks walked over to his machine and looked at some of the pieces. "I guess that's what happens when you don't test something first."
Gohan walked over to it and looked at a few components. He tweaked a few things and Trunks walked with great interest while Goten played with the putty. "There now it should work out pretty well. How about you two give it another try?"
Trunks and Goten looked at Gohan with surprise. Usually he would tell them to go do something else, but this time he was encouraging them to go and do it again. The boys looked at each other and smiled.
"I know who we can shoot now!" Trunks said excitedly.
"Yeah me too! Our dads!" Goten said. Gohan just laughed. He really couldn't stop them from aiming at their dad's and it would be kind of funny to see their reaction when they get hit with slime. He didn't want to near the boys though when they fired it off so he took refuge in the tree close by.
"Let's put a whole lot in there this time so hopefully it'll hit both of them." Goten said as he grabbed the bucket and dumped almost the whole bucket in.
Trunks just stared at how much Goten put in. He watched Goten get everything ready and couldn't understand why he was so excited about sliming their fathers but he figured he'd get in on the fun too. He changed the angle and got it all set up perfectly. The picked up the controller together and hit the button. The gigantic wad went flying through the air with a small pop out of the gun. Gohan's tweaks had worked perfectly and both Vegeta and Goku had no clue that this substance was flying through the air.
The blob broke into several pieces and flew closer towards them. Goku turned his head because he thought something was coming towards them and got hit in the face with the pink goo. Another piece hit Vegeta in the back of the head and more smaller pieces hit the two all over. Vegeta turned around and looked at the direction the substance came from. Goku was laughing as he wiped his face off. He looked over at Vegeta, "Looks like they got you pretty good too."
"Shut up slime face. Looks like we got two boys to punish." Vegeta said as he stood up and reached to the back of his head to grab slime out of his hair.
"Oh come on Vegeta. They are just being boys, at least you won't have to worry about the mischief with the new baby girl you're having." Goku said as he walked up next to Vegeta. "I've didn't have any girls but I'm going to guess they are easier to deal with than the boys we already have. Don't you agree?" He said as he nudged Vegeta's arm.
When Vegeta didn't answer, Goku looked over at Vegeta who's eyes were staring straight ahead without blinking. Gohan dropped down from the tree and walked up to his father and Vegeta. "Is he okay dad?"
"Um, Vegeta." Goku started as he moved around to look at Vegeta. He scratched his head and tried to think of what to say next, then it dawned on him. "Vegeta, you didn't know you and Bulma are having a daughter did you?"
"NO KAKOROT! I did not know! Bulma hasn't let me touch her lately so I can't figure out what the gender is. She wanted to do it the normal earthling way." Vegeta said.
"But…I didn't mean to ruin it." Goku said looking down.
Gohan walked up to his father and put his hand on his shoulder. "Good going dad."
Vegeta wanted to believe he didn't hear what Goku said. 'Besides how the hell did he know what the gender of his child was? He was probably completely wrong, that idiot has no idea what he is talking about anyways. But a baby girl. How am I going to take care of a fragile little girl? He has to be wrong.' He sat back down and went back into his meditation but all he kept thinking about was having to hold a little baby girl. Goku and Gohan decided that they were going to go into the house and leave Vegeta be since he wasn't responding to either of them anymore.
