GoChi Spring Fling: Day Two

Cherry Blossoms

“ChiChi, I know you want to but I don’t think you should go this year. In your condition, you can’t. There’s too much walking… too much memory.” He pointed to ChiChi’s dilemma. “That should keep you home this year.”

ChiChi’s hands were on her growing belly. She was eight months pregnant. Her condition limited her physical activities but ChiChi was determined to make this journey. “Walking is perfectly fine for a pregnant woman and it is because of my baby, I have to go this year.”

Gyumao rubbed his left temple. He was getting a headache. His daughter was so stubborn sometimes. He hoped with another male around, he had ammunition against ChiChi but at the moment, the ammunition was more interested in eating than listening. “Goku, you’re her husband and ChiChi’s carrying your baby. You should have a say in this.”

Goku raised his face from his large ramen bowl. When ChiChi and her Dad had discussions, he let them talk and agree with whatever they wanted to do. Some things involved him and Goku trusted his wife and father-in-law to make the decision for him. Goku slurped the noodles. “What should I say?”

“Tell ChiChi she can’t go.”

“Don’t tell my husband what to say! Goku, tell my Dad to mind his business.”

The irony of his daughter’s action wasn’t lost on Gyumao. “Don’t you tell your husband what to say.”

“Don’t pull Goku into this!” ChiChi was losing her temper. “It’s my decision and I’m going! Goku will come with me.”

“I am?” Goku wondered what he was being pulled into. “Where am I going?”

ChiChi rubbed her temple in the same way her father did moments earlier. “Oh, Goku, weren’t you listening? I’m talking about the Cherry Blossom Festival in Kaito Village. It’s not far from East City.”

“Not far from East City but it’s far from here. It’s seven hours by one of my airships.”

“We can take Nimbus,” Goku offered if that bothered Gyumao. “It’ll get us there in less than half that time.”

“In ChiChi’s condition, Goku, Nimbus won’t do. It’ll be uncomfortable for ChiChi to sit for a long period of time on that cloud. You should be catering to your child’s condition more than your wife’s wants.”

Goku didn’t know why but he didn’t like what Gyumao said. ChiChi has been more cautious than anyone during her pregnancy. She won’t let them have intimacy in case it hurt the baby. It wasn’t fun for Goku waiting but he knew ChiChi did this for their child’s benefit. “Nimbus is comfortable and if we need to make stops, we can.”

Outnumbered Gyumao gave up. “I was hoping you’d be on my side, Goku.” He pointed at Goku harshly. “If ChiChi has a bad experience, it’ll be your fault, Goku, and your responsibility to make it right.”

Gyumao stormed off in a huff leaving Goku confused. It was a simple festival. Why was Gyumao against ChiChi going? Maybe her condition had something to do with it but Goku felt there was something else going on.

Goku and ChiChi had an early start to Kaito Village. It was still dark and slightly chilly when Goku and ChiChi left their home on Mount Paouz. Goku was annoyed ChiChi told them they had to wear kimonos for this trip. Kimonos fit too snugly for Goku but he did it for ChiChi. She seemed annoyed her Dad didn’t want her going on this trip and ChiChi had been very tight-lipped about the reasons.

Goku wrapped ChiChi in a large blanket and placed her on his lap as Nimbus flew them to Kaito Village. ChiChi slept most of the journey and though Goku wanted to sleep, he stayed awake. As Gyumao and the priest told him, ChiChi was his responsibility. They took two breaks: for ChiChi to relieve herself, and stretch her legs and for them to have breakfast before they finally arrived at Kaito Village near eleven that morning.

Because of the Cherry Blossom festival, Kaito Village was overrun with tourists wanting to view the famous blooming cherry trees officially announcing spring. Hotel and restaurants were full and when the first signs of light shone on the village, everyone was up to take part in the busy day.

“The Masumi Shrine is where we have to start, Goku. It was built during the founding of this village nearly 2,000 years ago and it’s the only building created during that time still standing. It’s the most visited shrine in the region.”

“Wow,” Goku took this news in as his eyes went up the levels of steps leading to the Shrine’s top. “It’s really old!” And the steps were so many! There were at least five hundred steps. It was easy for Goku to climb but Goku wasn’t confident ChiChi could do it in her condition.

No wonder Gyumao didn’t want ChiChi doing this.

“My stars, is it really you, ChiChi? I can’t believe you came.”

Goku looked over ChiChi at the man calling her name. Goku didn’t know this man of fair height and muscles. Muscles, Goku nearly snorted. He had some, Goku admitted as he noticed the definition of his arm when the sleeve of his kimono rolled down when the man waved at them.

“Nao!” ChiChi waddled to the man excitedly. She embraced him. “How wonderful to see you again!”

Wonderful? Who was this guy and why was ChiChi speaking so cheerful to him? ChiChi’s only this excited with her Pops and me. Goku stared at the hug. It didn’t last long but it unnerved Goku. Only me and her Pops hug ChiChi.

Whenever a man stood too close to ChiChi, she always stepped back. ChiChi didn’t do this and was the one to initiate a hug between her and Noa. It piqued Goku’s curiosity. He followed wondering who was this man that caused his wife to express emotion Goku thought was only reserved for him and Gyuamo.

“Not the time for you to walk to the shrine,” Goku heard Noa say. “You can’t get up all those steps by yourself, ChiChi.”

“I have to, Nao. This year is more important than any year.”

And why was that Goku wondered. What was going on that he didn’t know?

Nao looked over ChiChi at Goku’s arrival. “Son Goku,” Nao acknowledged. “I never thought there’d be the day we meet but I’m glad we did. I finally see the man who will always be my rival.”

“Rival?” Goku felt Nao’s Ki. It was very low like everyone except for his friends: Krillin, Master Roshi, Tien, Yamcha and ChiChi, and his real rival Piccolo. This Ki didn’t feel like anyone who could say he is their rival. “I never met you.”

“No, but you took something I consider mine.”

“What’s that?”

“My woman.”

Woman? Goku admitted to having a bad memory but he never took anyone’s woman. He didn’t know how! “I never did that.”

Nao grinned. “Oh, you definitely did.”

“Who did I take?”

“She’s standing next to you.”

ChiChi?! Goku looked at his wife. She didn’t react to Nao’s words as he thought. He thought she would be angry but she was smiling. For a woman who went around introducing herself as ‘Son Goku’s wife’ ChiChi wasn’t acting like it. “ChiChi’s my wife.”

“Yes, she is and judging by the roundness of her belly, you worked fast staking your claim on her.”

“Nao.” ChiChi held her stomach and bowed her head blushing. Blushing? Was she blushing at what Nao said or what he did to ChiChi months ago. “Don’t say it like that.”

“But it is what he did.” Nao smiled at Goku who had a strange desire to punch him. “I really should hate you. Taking my woman and putting your seed in her belly. All of it should be mine.”

Goku didn’t hate this guy but he was starting to dislike him. “ChiChi,” Goku didn’t hold the hard edge in his voice, “who is this guy?”

“This is Nao, Goku. His family practically rules this village. He’s not a prince since the village has a democratic system but his family has some influence. They are one of the oldest in this village and that shrine is his family’s.”

“Okay.” Goku understood and didn’t care about that part. “Why is he saying I took him from you? You’ve always been mine.”

“But you haven’t shown yourself for years, Son Goku,” Nao reminded him. “By that logic, there was no way of knowing you will honor your word. You’re not the only male who made marriage promises to young girls and did not follow through. Your absence in those years made Mao ChiChi available.”

”Son ChiChi,” Goku corrected Nao.

“Son,” Nao repeated. “Finally,” he chuckled.

“It’s been a long trip, Nao, and Goku and I have things to do. We have to get going.”

“Up the shrine?” Nao didn’t see that as possible. “That’s a long trip, ChiChi. It will be very tiring for a woman in your condition.”

“I’m going with her,” Goku acknowledged as he stood closer to ChiChi. “She’ll be fine.”

From the doubtful expression on his face, Nao wasn’t entirely certain Goku was up to the task. “There’s a famous story from my ancestors. My eldest ancestor built this shrine as dedication to his wife. She was pregnant, near birth, when it was completed. My ancestor wanted his wife to give birth to their first child as a sign of good luck for the shrine but his wife couldn’t go up the steps. My ancestor carried his pregnant wife up those five hundred steps. The legend goes he didn’t break a sweat. He never tired and never stopped. His love helped him carry his wife up there.”

Nao took a step to ChiChi. “I’m not your husband but I can carry you up there, ChiChi.”

A strong hand landed on Nao’s chest. It hit with such force Nao was knocked off his feet. He would’ve soared if a wooden electric pole three feet away hadn’t caught him. ChiChi gasped and covered her mouth at the sound of Nao’s back hitting the pole. Pain shot up Nao’s back and the sudden wind knocked from him through Goku’s blow made breathing difficult. He only had the energy to look up to see Goku looking down on him.

“ChiChi is my wife. I’ll carry her.”

“Nao,” ChiChi exhaled shocked. She hadn’t expected Goku to do that. “I’m sorry.”

She’s apologizing to him??!!!! What is ChiChi’s history with this guy? “He’s fine,” Goku dismissed Nao and ChiChi’s concerns as he picked her up and walked up the steps to the shrine.

To Goku’s discomfort, Nao’s strength returned. He got back on his feet and followed them.

“Impressive,” Nao noted as Goku easily carried ChiChi up the steps. “You’re not breaking a sweat at all. You won’t need a drink when we reach the top. I won’t either since I walk up these steps every day,” Nao admitted proudly. “But you…. you’re good.”

Heh, Goku thought with a sly smirk. Nao found this impressive. Goku called this a warmup. “This is nothing. I had to do milk runs up mountains with steps longer than this when I was a kid.” To show off how easy this was, Goku started skipping steps, walking two at a time instead of one.

“Skipping steps.” Nao imitated Goku. “I can do it, too.”

Alone. But Goku knew Nao couldn’t do it with ChiChi. Not that Goku would give him the chance. Goku went ahead increasing his pace. Nao followed wanting to keep up but with Goku’s strength and stamina Nao couldn’t beat him. He admitted defeat as Goku reached the top of the steps first.

Goku gently placed ChiChi on her feet. “Where to next, ChiChi?” Wherever it was, Goku wanted it away from Nao.

“I want to go to the altar and say a prayer for our baby and our family.”

Goku wasn’t overly religious but he went with ChiChi to the altar as she tossed a coin in the offering box and offered a prayer for their unborn child, her father and to Goku’s surprise, his grandfather and her mother, both who have long since passed from this world and both neither spoke much about.

Holding ChiChi’s hand and with Nao following and adding comments about his family’s shrine here and there, Goku toured the shrine with his wife. ChiChi picked up flowers, incense and a water bottle from one shop. It was odd to Goku. When ChiChi went into the shop, the owner knew what ChiChi wanted and handed her a prepared bag. ChiChi’s solemn expression rendered Goku to be silent, too, and not ask questions. Not now, he thought, but later, he will. Goku followed ChiChi to another shop where her mood was cheerful as she purchased good luck amulets and charms for their family and home and toys for their baby.

After taking a break to snack on dango, ChiChi was ready to leave the shrine and see the cherry blossoms in the park. Goku carried ChiChi down the shrine again with Nao following them.

“I’ve nothing to do,” Nao said as he was happy to be a third wheel. “Let’s see the cherry blossoms together.”

Crowds of people toured the park where the cherry blossoms bloomed. The pink petals were pretty and the scent wafting from the trees comforting and not too much for Goku’s sensitive nose. Unfortunately, it was all soured in Goku’s mind with Nao playing tour guide for them. He conversed with ChiChi while Goku stayed in the middle keeping Nao separate from ChiChi. Goku wasn’t sure what was going on with him. He just didn’t like Nao and didn’t want him near ChiChi. He didn’t understand why he was like this and why ChiChi tolerated Nao after he commented he should’ve married her and she should have his baby.

In the middle of the tour, Nao suddenly led Goku and ChiChi off the path everyone else took. Part of it was rocky, coarse and slippery due to the passing rain from the previous night. Goku held tightly to ChiChi to make sure she didn’t fall. “This,” Nao said, “is why ChiChi’s father didn’t want ChiChi coming alone. Well, one reason anyway.”

There was a change in Nao’s tone. He was no longer joyful or playful. He sounded serious as he walked up the rocky path. There were cherry blossoms around them with petals dancing as they from the lightest breeze. Nao looked back at them more than once as if making sure Goku had a stronghold on ChiChi.

“This area is reserved and not for the public,” Nao said as they crossed over into a smoother area. The path was easier for ChiChi to walk alone but Goku still held her hand. This area was closed off by a long fence which Nao unlocked. Within this big fence was a smaller fence circling a very tall cherry blossom. From Goku’s observation, it was the tallest one in the park. Why were they here?

ChiChi let go of Goku’s hand and went inside the fenced cherry blossom. Goku noticed Nao stood on the other side of the fence and did not enter with ChiChi. Goku looked on curious. What was going on here? ChiChi walked around to the other side of the tree. Not wanting to be left out, Goku followed ChiChi inside the fenced area. He arrived as ChiChi got on her knees. He went around to see why and saw ChiChi kneeling before a stone grave marker.

Goku watched ChiChi arrange the flowers, water and incense she purchased from the shop. She put her hands in prayer and closed her eyes. Understanding what was going on, Goku kneeled beside ChiChi. He put his hands together in prayer. He wanted to be respectful but he needed questions answered. Mainly, who was he praying to?!!!

“Whose grave is this, ChiChi?”

ChiChi opened her eyes and with a sad smile told Goku. “My mother.”

Mother?!!!

“But….. but… “ Goku stammered. Goku knew he didn’t have the best memory and forgot A LOT but he knew damn well he would remember if ChiChi told him her mother was buried here. “I thought your Mom was buried at Gyumao’s place.”

“Partly,” ChiChi admitted. “This was the last spot my parents were happy together. They brought me here as a baby to see the cherry blossoms. Not long after this, Mother got sick. Before she died, she wanted part of her remains to be here where she was last happy. My Dad honored Mother’s wishes but he never came after that.” ChiChi paused to collect herself. The story was always heartbreaking for her. “It was too much for Dad to come back and after her death…. well, Dad went down a different path.”

“It isolated Gyumao from everyone.” Now Nao was speaking. “Son Gohan wasn’t the only one Gyumao cut ties from.”

“I was fourteen when I found a photo Dad kept from me,” ChiChi took over the story. “It was me as a baby with my parents. I confronted Dad and he told me the story. I wanted to come here and give respects to Mother but Dad wouldn’t come. So I came alone.”

“Spunky and determined,” Nao recalled fondly. “When she stumbled on my family’s shrine, it was like seeing a ghost. ChiChi looks exactly like her mother. My family shared stories of Gyumao and our ancestors. Our families go back centuries. Seeing ChiChi after all those years was like a family reunion.”

“Family,” Goku repeated. And what kind of family did Nao see in ChiChi? He wanted to put a baby in her! “You talked about wanting ChiChi for yourself.”

Nao suddenly broke off into a raucous laugh. “That pissed you off, didn’t it, Goku? I saw it in your eyes. Forgive me,” Nao begged, ”but I had to test you. I wanted to be sure you were good for ChiChi and you wanted her. When ChiChi told me about you, I was worried and every time ChiChi came here alone without you and with no contact from you, I worried you would not honor your word. But when you knocked me back when I offered to carry her, I knew I was wrong about you, and when you carried ChiChi up those steps…. WOW!!!” Nao applauded. “Damn. That’s love. True love. My ancestor did and I did it with my wife.”

“Wife?” Goku repeated as it slowly clicked for him. “You mean….”

“Married for six years and the father of two kids. I carried my love up those steps during two pregnancies. ChiChi,” Nao’s eyes shone with approval for Goku, “you got yourself a good one.”

ChiChi smiled at Goku with so much pride and love, it made Goku blush. “I always knew it.” He hadn’t felt this embarrassed since ChiChi kissed him at the Tenkaichi Budokai.

“So it was a test?” Goku wanted to be sure. “You don’t want, ChiChi?”

“No, Goku. She’s all yours and I pray for the soul that tries to take her from you.” Nao rubbed the spot on his chest Goku hit. “I think I have a few bruised ribs and a concussion from that hit.”

Embarrassed, Goku sheepishly rubbed the back of his neck. “Sorry about that.”

“Don’t be sorry. You did what every man should do in your position. To make up for what I said, I’ll give you two a moment and then we can head to my wife’s family restaurant for a hearty meal.”

Nao walked off giving Goku and ChiChi a moment alone.

“Oh, boy,” ChiChi giggled. “Nao will regret offering to feed you.”

ChiChi was all smiles but Goku didn’t share her mood. He had questions. “Did you know he will test me?”

“I didn’t know he will do it until he did it,” ChiChi admitted. “Nao said he would if you two ever meet and I should stay out of it if I wanted proof of your feelings for me. That was a long time ago and I knew I never needed it.”

“Really?” Goku wasn’t sure if that was completely true.

“I didn’t think I needed it,” ChiChi said, “But that was before the tournament. I guess afterward part of me wanted to see what you would do, too.”

Goku couldn’t be upset if he was deceived. With how he forgot ChiChi and never visited and what happened when they met at the tournament, he understood he had to show proof of his feelings for her “So, you came here alone?”

“Since I was fourteen,” ChiChi nodded solemnly. “I know it wasn’t wise to come in my condition but under this tree, during this season I feel closest to my Mom here. I didn’t know her at all, Goku. I grew up in that castle not feeling her presence but when I came here for the first time, I felt something. So, I came back every year to talk. I talked about waiting for you. I talked about becoming a fighter to impress you and preparing myself to be your wife. It’s silly but it feels like Mother is listening.” ChiChi touched her stomach. “The last time I came here was a month before meeting you again. A lot has changed and I wanted to share with Mother you and our baby. I had to do it this year because so much has happened. I just needed her to know.”

“I know.” Goku understood. He had that same feeling of his Grandpa’s home. His presence felt strongest there. Goku talked to him a lot there about his adventures since his death, about ChiChi and their unborn baby.

A gentle breeze blew by. Cherry blossom petals flew in the wind and dropped on Goku and ChiChi like light sprinklings of snow. ChiChi closed her eyes and embraced the wind. Goku followed suit and closed his eyes. It was strange but it did feel as if there was another presence here.

“You’ll be back next year, ChiChi, and the year after that with me and our baby. You’ll never come here alone again.”

Tears misted ChiChi’s eyes as she threw her arms around Goku. “Oh, Goku.” ChiChi looked upward at the pink and white cherry blossoms. ChiChi felt her mother’s spirit in this tree and felt she was watching them now, and with the wind, felt her mother’s approval. Mother, I told you he was wonderful.

Gochi Valentine Week 2023 - Day 7 prompt: Cupid

Cupid & Psyche AU 🦋💘 (or Eros & Psyche) from the Roman and Greek mythology. I drew Goku and Chichi as the god of love and the goddess of the soul when they’re already happily married and living in Olympus, instead of their iconic love story origin (that’s for next time hehe).

Five minutes later:

Hope you guys like it! Cupid is tossing spears instead of arrows in his ssj4 form LMAO it was funnier in my head okay! also, he’s wearing way too many layers than I realized.

A New Start

Pairing: GoChi

Word Count: 1274

Prompt: story request from a friend.

Summary: Goku and Chichi are now empty nesters. That big life change along with it being a big birthday for Chichi has left her feeling a little down in the dumps. Goku tries to cheer her up.

AO3: https://archiveofourown.org/works/48087631

FFN: https://www.fanfiction.net/s/14247623/1/A-New-Start

Dressed in a white long-sleeved shirt and stiff dark grey pants, and dark red bow tie, I twiddled my thumbs where I stood in our living room waiting for Chichi. She fussed and fussed over herself in the upstairs bathroom. Occasionally, I heard an annoyed "Oh!" so things didn't seem to be going well for her. I had been ready to go for over an hour.

I braved approaching the half-open bathroom door and knocked. "Uh, honey? You okay in there?"

The door snapped closed in my face before I glimpsed Chichi, half-dressed and a makeup brush in hand, the displaced air whooshing around me. "I'm fine," was her short, somewhat muffled reply.

I grimaced. When Chichi said it like that, she usually was not fine. Quiet sniffles floated out through the closed bathroom door. I frowned. I raised a fist but thought better of knocking again—didn't want to make her angry. Chichi needed to enjoy our evening since it was her birthday—a big birthday at that. She had been a little out of sorts since Goten, our youngest son, moved out to start his own life and needed something to cheer her up. I suggested a picnic because she always liked those. Getting ready to go seemed to upset her even more. I sighed.

With nothing else to do but wait for her, I wandered the living room and paused in front of a wood-framed mirror hung on the wall in the entryway. Had to make sure my clothes were wrinkle-free and my tie was on straight. Otherwise, Chichi would fuss over me and then we'd never make it out the door. My clothes were in order so I leaned against the entryway wall and waited for Chichi. It was a long wait before a door upstairs finally creaked open and Chichi practically floated down the spiral staircase.

Her sleeveless, curve-hugging deep red dress flowed gently around her ankles with every step. A high slit flashed her strong legs and she had even let her hair down for the night. It tumbled around her shoulders in loose curls. I tugged at my too-tight shirt collar as Chichi left the last step and tried to make words come out to tell her how beautiful she was.

Chichi fidgeted with the strap of her black purse slung across her body. "Oh, I just knew I'm too old to dress like this." When her eyes welled up and she turned her back on me, my heart sank. "What was I—?"

When she took a step toward the stairs, I grabbed her hand, gently spun her around, and hugged her against me. I glimpsed wide eyes as I leaned down and kissed her. Our lips connected. She melted into me with a happy little sigh. I let my hands slide down the back of her dress and Chichi pulled back, eyes narrowed and an eyebrow lifted. At least she wasn't upset anymore.

I gave her my best, most innocent smile.

Chichi flicked my bow tie. "If you start that, then we'll really never leave."

I chuckled and grabbed the car keys off the key rack along with the large picnic basket Chichi packed earlier that day. Chichi grabbed our old picnic blanket and led the way to the car. I couldn't take my eyes off her. Her dark-red dress hugged her hips and flowed over her skin as she walked. It was even harder to stay focused on driving with her dress's high slit showing so much smooth skin. It really didn't help when she let her dress slip over her leg, showing even more skin. That was no accident.

"You stay focused on the drive," said Chichi.

I swallowed.

We finally reached the old giant apple tree after a bumpy drive even in our aircar and putting some fresh scratches in the paint squeezing past some trees. Flying would have been smoother and faster but Chichi liked being driven and I wanted to make her happy. I put the car in park a little-ways from the tree and cut the engine.

"We haven't been here in a while with Goten moving out and all," said Chichi, leaned forward in her seat and gazing up at the tree.

I nodded as I leaned over the steering wheel. The big old apple tree was as big as it ever was. "Yeah, no kidding."

A few overripe apples littered the grassy ground around it. More shiny red apples hung from its branches far overhead. The apples that old tree grew were always the sweetest apples around. The hole Gohan blew through the trunk when he was a baby had long since healed over and only a rough, bubbled-out scar remained. I chuckled at the memory.

"That wasn't so funny then," said Chichi despite her smile as she gazed up at the tree, too. She lightly punched my arm. "We're fortunate Gohan took after you."

A warm feeling blossomed across my cheeks.

We unpacked the car and smoothed out the cream-colored picnic blanket on a flat spot in-between the tree's roots poking out through the grassy ground. Chichi lowered herself to her knees and pulled out plates, bowls, silverware, and, finally, the food out of our basket.

My stomach growled. "Can we eat now?"

Chichi shook her head but her eyes lit up with her giggle. "Same old Goku. Just a second." She arranged a few old-fashioned lanterns around the blanket in between serving dishes. "Light those, please."

Chichi made each of us a plate as I lit the lanterns' wicks with a few tiny sparks of ki.

–+–

I rubbed my too-full stomach as Chichi cleared the dishes. "That was great, babe! You really outdid yourself with this one!"

Chichi glanced at me and giggled. "You say that every time."

I laughed and flopped down backwards on the blanket, my fingers laced under my head. Patches of orange, pink, and gold shown through the apple tree's dense branches. Chichi settled next to me, her head on my shoulder. She hummed and snuggled into me. I pressed a little kiss on her forehead. We rested together until the sunset's colors faded into darkness and the stars came out. The full moon rose over Mt Paozu's pillar-like mountains. I yawned.

"Oh, you're not going to sleep yet," said Chichi as she stood up. She bent over me, her hands on her hips. "I need to work this off and you're going to help me."

I blinked, rubbed my eyes, and sat up. "Uh, help you? What do you—?"

I yelped when Chichi grabbed my arm and yanked me to my feet like I weighed nothing to her. I forgot just how strong she was sometimes. Maintaining a grip on my wrist, she marched me off the blanket. I stumbled after her in the fading sunlight, still with no idea what she had planned.

"Stay here," she said as she pointed to my feet.

Chichi continued several paces ahead. When she stopped and flicked her delicate silver sandals off her feet, I had a pretty good idea what she wanted. I kicked my shoes off and tossed them aside with my socks as she settled into a ready stance. The little smirk on her face made my heart hammer in my chest. I got into a stance, too.

Chichi moved first, charged me, the wind pulling her hair wildly along behind her. The fierceness in her eyes made my mouth go dry. I ducked her right hook. Unperturbed, Chichi planted one foot on the ground and threw her weight into a kick. Her bare foot connected with my forearm with a satisfying smack. My forearm actually stung. She was incredible!

I couldn't help my wide grin as we dodged, countered, and defended against each other's hits while Chichi's fierce glare only deepened. Before long, I was laughing. Chichi's already flushed face turned beat red. She growled as she put all her momentum into another strong kick aimed for my gut. I sprang backward a couple paces.

My turn. I charged her. Her eyes widened for a millisecond before she dodged my attempt to take her down. In twisting out of the way and just beyond my grasp, that put her back to me.

"Big mistake, babe," I said.

I lunged for her again but she was ready. Her small but strong hands grabbed my forearm and yanked hard as she bent double. I flew head over heels and landed with an "Umph" on the grass.

I stared up at her as she crossed her arms and smirked down at me.

"Did you really just flip me?" I said through a chuckle. When Chichi closed her eyes and nodded, I took my move. With the help of a little ki, I sprang to my feet, swept her legs out from under her, cushioned her landing, and had her pinned to the grass by her wrists far faster than she could react. "You let your guard down."

Chichi blinked up at me. The light of the full moon shining down caught her eyes and made them sparkle. I brushed some stray hair out of her face. I married one strong, amazing woman.

"So, how did it feel to be flipped by an old lady?" asked Chichi with a mischievous little smile that didn't quite reach her eyes.

I lifted an eyebrow. "Old lady? Old ladies can't fight like you just did."

Chichi's eyes lit up with her light laugh. "I guess you're right about that."

"You were incredible, babe!" I said, grinning again at her ferocity.

A little pink spread across Chichi's cheeks as she turned away. I hooked a finger around her chin and turned her face toward me. I couldn't resist that sparkle in her eyes. On instinct, I kissed her, earning a contented little hum. With the night cooling off, we decided to pack up the aftermath of our picnic and went home. Chichi hummed through doing the dishes and putting away the picnic supplies. Her light came back to her. With both of our boys out of the house and no threats looming over the Earth, we had time to focus on each other.

DRAGON BALL FANFICS:

*fics in green are ongoing/incomplete

KakaVege-

Saiyan Uprising: On a Planet Vegeta where Frieza never followed through with killing the Saiyans, but keeps them enslaved for many years. A war is brewing, nevertheless - an uprising. The Saiyans can't defeat Frieza until AFTER they deal with each other.

Blood Lust: The vampiric prince of a foreign country has made his way to a peaceful, coastal city. There, he encounters a man more like him than he realizes, bound to him before they ever met. He intends to expose his true nature and make him his before the humans can intervene

Admit It (for the kakavege week prompts Drugs/Mind Control)

Trapped in a small space (for the kakavege week prompt)

Pretending (for the kakavege week prompt, fake boyfriends)

Again (for the kakavege week prompt, GT)

Nearly Killed (for the prompt, Gore)

Let Go (for the prompt, Riding Nimbus)

Blame the Moon: Following the events of Saiyan Uprising, Kakarot and Vegeta need to settle into their new lives as a newly-freed Planet Vegeta's King and first Super Saiyan. But first, a honeymoon. If they can figure out what that even is.

BardIne-

Saiyan Uprising (linked above)

The Surprise: They already sent their younger son away when he was an infant, but now they're sending him from the planet again as a much different Saiyan, a grown man more capable than his previous self, but just as unaware as the first time about where he is going. Bardock doesn't know why they should bother. Gine is excited.

GoBul-

More Than Friends: They’ve been friends for years. So it comes as a surprise to both of them that now, when they’re both in established relationships, the enduring flame of their friendship grows into a blaze.

GoChi-

A New Experience: Chi-Chi didn't know what Goku was thinking when he put his mouth down there, but it had distracted her all through breakfast. Being newly married was confusing - sometimes embarrassing, but also exciting. Eventually, her curiosity was going to have to get the better of her anyway.

In for a Ride: Chi-Chi is a teenage girl looking for some fun. Only, the annual carnival isn’t doing it for her. Not until she spots an old, forgotten friend, who has fun and then some to offer her. She’s playing with fire, and she knows it, but she can’t resist Son Goku.

Guarded: She was moving up in the world, both in her success and on the notorious murderer’s hit list. He loved his career; he was one of the best. The aftermath of a trial drew these professionals together, leading both of them to realize what their career-driven lives were lacking - each other.

Baby Daddy: There’s nothing like the luxury of a no-strings-attached one night stand. Until…there are strings attached. For Goku and Chi-Chi, those strings will come in the form of onesies and pacifiers and a whole lot of relationship development to unpack in the course of nine months.

Testing: Before taking off for the next purge, Kakarot’s team needs to get acquainted with its new commander. Raditz isn’t happy about the woman put in command. Kakarot can’t disagree with him more, especially not the morning before their first mission when this domineering Saiyan woman decides to put their equipment (and Kakarot) to the test.

Serendipity in College: College is a time for fun and freedom for young adults. In between work and classes, there are friends and some become something more than friends. The DBZ couples meet in their senior year of college. Real world A/U. Mature content for adults only, Language/Adult Content/lemons. Coupling is not canon right away, but eventually G/CC, V/B, K/18. Slightly OOC at times

The Ox Queen: A/U all-human world loosely inspired by A Game Of Thrones series. In a world where power and position trumps everything, and the more powerful you are, the more your life is dictated to you, can we find and keep true love? My world was full of obligations and necessity. Until I met him. Things changed for us as we filled our lives with lies. Mature, dark themes included

VegeBul-

The Devil’s Contract: Her greatest sin was ambition, but more than she realized, she was capable of many sins. That asset, more than her success, caught the boss' eye. A Vegebul one-shot. Mature content.

On Guard: He’s taken this assignment reluctantly. She only has to tolerate him for a couple months until Goku returns. What happens between these two in the interim is, however, unavoidable.
