GoChi Week 2021: A Fulfilled Life: Part Six

GoChi Week 2021

A Fulfilled Life

Day Six: Modern AU @gochi-week

Four-year-old Kakarrot hid behind several crates, frightened and unsure of what to do and why this is happening. Earlier that day, his Mommy and Daddy told him they were moving to a place that will make them all happy. Kakarrot didn’t like that he had to leave many of his toys behind but Mommy promised to buy him new toys.

Daddy drove them to an old building where Daddy said a friend of his will take them to their new home. There, they met a tall burly man Kakarrot knew as Gyumao and the one who will take his family to the happy place.  

It was a lie.

In his mother’s arms, Kakarrot heard words being exchanged between Daddy and Gyumao, loud bangs, his Daddy falling to the ground; Mommy screaming and running away with him; more loud bangs that caused his Mommy to fall and drop him. Before Mommy closed her eyes to sleep, she told him to run. Kakarrot ran and hid behind the crates.

Kakarrot could see and hear everything. Daddy was still awake but sounded in pain. Daddy’s shirt changed colors, too. It turned from light blue to a dark red over his tummy. More people entered the building. A short man Kakarrot heard called Freeza stood over his Daddy. With him were two other strange people and Gyumao.  

“Bardock, you dumb fuck. You got greedy. If you only tried to save Gine and Kakarrot I would’ve looked the other way. I would’ve thought Gine planned her escape behind your back and ditched you because I took Raditz.” Freeza sadistically laughed over Daddy. “I would’ve taunted you at every opportunity your wife took her other son and ditched you. I would’ve had sympathy for you and not ordered them killed but you got greedy. You wanted out yourself.” Freeza pressed his booted foot on Bardock’s neck. “You would leave me after all I’ve done for you? I’m hurt, Bardock. Deeply hurt.”

Freeza removed his foot and stepped away leaving Daddy to cough up red liquid. “Done for me?” Daddy sounded in pain. “You made me and all the members of the Oozaru organization your flunkies. We did your bidding after our boss Vegeta submitted control of our group to you. Your organization became the strongest and the most feared group in the land because of OUR muscle. Without us, you’re nothing!”

A pale skin man Kakarrot heard named Zarbon laughed haughtily, “He thinks the Oozaru should take credit for your strength, Mr. Freeza. How insulting he doesn’t give you the credit you deserve.”

“Indeed. Something must be done.” Freeza turned to Gyumao. “Kill him.” When Gyumao only reacted with shocked eyes, Freeza snarled, “Use your gun and kill him.”

“No.” Gyumao shook his head refusing him. “I betrayed Bardock and my partner to keep my wife and daughter safe. I won’t kill him.”

“Useless.” Freeza snatched the gun out of Gyumao’s hands. He fired two bullets in Bardock’s head. He shot Gyumao’s left shoulder.

Kakarrot gasped. Daddy stopped talking. He was sleeping like Mommy. Kakarrot didn’t understand everything that was going on but even his young mind understood he and his parents weren’t going to the happy place and it was all Gyumao’s fault.

Kakarrot yelp as he was pulled in the air. He saw a burly, bald man grinning at him. “Gotcha, kid.”

Day Seven: Afterlife @gochi-week

“…… he grabbed his toy and tossed it at me. Babies need to know who is boss so I smacked his fanny hard.”

“Babies do try to test you. Gohan and Goten did, but,” ChiChi smiled fondly of the memories of her sons as babies, “I handled it.”

The older man chuckled. Spending this time with ChiChi, he definitely knew ChiChi was a strong woman who could handle anything, especially two-hybrid Saiyans. He imagined Goten to be a spitfire and energetic baby testing his limits like his father but he pictured Gohan to be a calmer baby.

“Gohan? You told me he is a sweet child.”

ChiChi giggled. Everyone who knew of Gohan always thought that. They thought of him as a kind well-mannered person and he is but Gohan had another side. Gohan can get cocky. Gohan can get moody. He had a temper like hers when he got really angry but most tend to avoid that and focus on his gentler nature.

“He is but Gohan has an aggressive personality, too. He’s strong like his Dad but I think Gohan has a perfect blend of my and Goku’s personality.”

“Like his Momma.” Son Gohan leaned back in his chair admiring the strong and proud woman sitting across from him. “I can’t wait to meet them.”

“You will,” ChiChi promised. “But not any time soon.”

“No, no,” Son Gohan chuckled. “I want it to be a very long time before I meet my great-grandsons. I’m very happy to be spending time with my granddaughter-in-law instead.”

ChiChi was very happy, too. When she crossed over, it was a new experience even though she died before. She didn’t have memories of that brief period she was dead except flashes of moments. She didn’t remember waiting in line with floating spirits except for a brief second she remembered being at eye level of a floating spirit. She had a body this time and couldn’t recall having one the first time she died. When she met King Yemma the first time, she was alone. This time, Son Gohan was waiting for her.

GoChi Week 2021: A Fulfilled Life: Part Four

GoChi Week 2021

A Fulfilled Life

Day Four: Sports @gochi-week

“I got you this time, Goku. You will not beat me at this.”

Goku shook his head amused with ChiChi. She was at it again. They have been married for several years and it has been an adventure of learning and understanding the woman he will spend the rest of his life with. Aside from being a great cook and mother to their children, ChiChi was a great companion, a caring person but also a woman with a quick temper and competitive streak.  

He saw a spark of ChiChi’s competitive nature whenever they sparred. ChiChi couldn’t beat him at martial arts so she tried to win in other ways: card games and board games. In these games, Goku and ChiChi broke even and when she did win, Goku wasn’t upset. He cheered ChiChi for her victory which made it hard for ChiChi to gloat. However, when ChiChi suggested they play sports not martial arts, Goku’s competitive edge came alive.

He beat ChiChi in tennis, soccer, volleyball and baseball. ChiChi released her fiery temper whenever she lost. Sometimes Goku deliberately spanked her hard in their games just so ChiChi got mad. She tossed tennis rackets and broke baseball bats in half when she lost.

This time, ChiChi picked a sport that didn’t require a lot of physical activity where Goku will have the advantage, and with the stakes of their usual bet, ChiChi knew Goku will give it all to not lose.

Goku bent to pick up the equipment of the game: a bowling ball. “So, I just roll this and hit those white thingies?”

“Those white thingies are pins and…..” ChiChi cringed at Goku hold the bowling ball like a basketball. She could let Goku think that’s the correct way to hold a bowling ball but she wanted to win honestly. “You’re holding your ball wrong. You have to stick your thumb, middle and ring finger in these holes.”

“Got it,” Goku understood. “Stick my fingers in here like I stick them in you.”

ChiChi slapped Goku across his chest. “Not funny.”

Goku shrugged. “It was to me.”

ChiChi picked up her bowling ball. “You get two rolls but the goal is to hit all or as many pins as possible with the first roll. The more pins you hit, the higher your score.”

ChiChi stepped to the foul line. “You can’t step over this line before you roll your ball.” She took a few steps back. “Now watch what I do. Your back needs to be straight. You need to be centered on the pins and bend your knees slightly. Walk to the foul line, swing your arm back and forward like this and release the ball.”

Goku studied ChiChi as if she’s showing him fighting techniques. He memorized her pose; how many steps she took to the foul line; how far back she stretched her arm and swung forward. When ChiChi released the bowling ball, it rolled down the lane smoothly. Seven pins tumbled. ChiChi picked up another ball and knocked down the remaining three.

The game seemed easy to play. Hit the pins with the ball. Goku figured he could do that. He had a practice shot like ChiChi which went well but when the game started Goku rolled the bowling ball too hard. With the force behind his roll, the bowling ball smashed three pins so hard, they broke into pieces.  

ChiChi slapped her forehead. “Too hard, Goku.”

Goku laughed off his error. “Oops.” He picked up another ball. “I’ll be lighter this time.” Goku released the bowling ball behind him and into the chest of an innocent bystander who was knocked off his feet and went soaring over the customer service counter. “Sorry! I don’t know my strength!”

ChiChi groaned, “It’s the tennis incident all over again.”

Goku’s strength was always an issue when Goku and ChiChi visited public facilities to play sports. When they played tennis together, Goku hit the ball so hard an attendant was knocked out. When they played baseball at a park, Goku’s home run broke the windows of ten cars in the parking lot.

“I don’t think he’s dead,” Goku saw the bystander wiggle his legs. “Probably got the wind knocked out of him.”

“And broke a few ribs,” ChiChi muttered.

“See?” Goku pointed as the bystander gingerly stood. “He’s okay.” He waved at the bystander who sent Goku a middle finger salute before he limped away. “Well, that’s rude.”

“He can be as rude as he likes, Goku. You almost killed him. We should be glad he’s not suing us or making us pay for damages like the baseball incident.”

Goku cringed recalling ChiChi screaming at him at the money spent to repair the car windows he smashed. “Good point.” Goku picked up another ball. This one rolled into the gutter. “Aw, man. I ain’t starting off too good with this.”

ChiChi smirked pleased with this. She rolled her ball and got a strike. “Yes!” ChiChi threw a fist in the air. “A strike!!”

As ChiChi danced around him gloating about her strike and winning their bet, Goku picked up his bowling ball. If ChiChi can get a strike, so can he. He stepped forward and rolled. He groaned when his ball rolled in the gutter again. On the second try, Goku put a little more strength in his swing and knocked all the pins down. “Whoo-hoo!!” Goku cheered when the last pin tumbled. “I got a strike, too!”

“Wrong!” ChiChi cackled. “It doesn’t count, Goku.”

“But,” Goku didn’t understand, “I got a strike like you.”

“You crossed the foul line.” ChiChi pointed at Goku’s right foot that was an inch over the foul line.

“But… I….” Goku pouted. “Awww…..”

It was wickedly pleasing for ChiChi to see Goku losing. For once, he’ll be on the losing end and she’ll be the victor in their bet. “Get ready to lose and be at my mercy for once in our bet.”

The mentioning of their bet caused Goku to suddenly perk up. “I still have a chance.”

On ChiChi’s next roll she got a spare. Goku knocked seven pins down during his first roll and missed the last three. With each frame, ChiChi grew more confident of her lead and winning the bet until the beginning of the sixth frame when the tide started to turn against her. Goku got his first strike.

ChiChi thought the strike was a fluke and was confident in her lead over him but Goku chipped at her lead when he knocked down nine pins and finished it with a spare in the seventh frame. He got another strike in the eighth frame and in the ninth knocked down nine pins again but got the spare. In the final frame, he got three strikes which made his total 157.

As Goku got more comfortable and caught up to ChiChi, ChiChi’s confidence wavered which caused her to make mistakes. Instead of a strike, ChiChi knocked down eight pins in the seventh frame and six pins in the eighth frame. She got a strike in the ninth frame. In the tenth frame, ChiChi knocked down nine pins and recovered with a spare.

For the final roll, ChiChi had to knock down at least six pins to win. Six pins were easy at the start of this game but the pressure was getting to her.  

I was so sure I had Goku in this one. He’s gonna win the bet again.

ChiChi stepped to the line. She extended her arm back and slowly rolled it forward in practice. She repeated to get the right form, the right momentum and swing to knock six pins down.

On the fourth swing where ChiChi expected to release her ball, Goku grabbed her arm.

“Goku!” ChiChi cursed. “You’re cheating!! Let me go!”

Goku stood behind ChiChi and pulled her to stand straight. “Your form is wrong and your grip on your ball is too tight. If you swing like this, the ball will roll in the gutter.”

ChiChi tried to shake Goku off. His advice came off as mocking to ChiChi. “Why are you talking like you’re the expert? I taught you how to play!”

“I’ve studied your form, ChiChi.” Goku tightened his hold on ChiChi slightly so she stopped fighting him. “When you were winning, you were relaxed and knocked more pins down. When I started catching up, you got frustrated and lose your concentration. Your anger makes you lose focus.”

Goku placed his left foot beside ChiChi’s and pressed against it forcing ChiChi to bring her legs closer. “You’re spread too wide here.” He pulled her back two steps. “You’re releasing your ball farther than before.” Holding her throwing arm, Goku gently swung it back and forth. “Swing with this motion.”

ChiChi didn’t want to openly admit it but Goku was right. Her anger did cause her to lose focus. It did in every sport they played together but even with her temper, Goku still had the physical advantage. It wasn’t the same this time. She was the sole cause of her loss at bowling. It was humbling and embarrassing Goku’s kindness brought guilt to ChiChi for her earlier behavior towards him. “I can’t believe you’re helping me.”

“I’m helping because your victory is my victory.”

“And the bet?”

Goku smirked thinking about the bet. In his mind, they were both winning regardless of the outcome here. “Don’t think about it and win the game, ChiChi.”

Feeling a surge of confidence, ChiChi swung the bowling ball a final time. It wasn’t a perfect roll. It wobbled to the right but when it collided with the pins eight fell down, bringing ChiChi’s total to 160.

“Yeah!” Goku threw both arms in the air. “You won, ChiChi!!”

Unlike Goku, ChiChi wasn’t in the mood to cheer or gloat. Tears sprung from her eyes out of relief and a bit of joy but mostly for the love of her husband. He didn’t gloat about his impending victory for him. He helped ChiChi and sacrificed his victory. ChiChi lightly punched his arm. “Why do you have to be so sweet? It’s not fun beating you when you’re sweet.”

“Ah, ChiChi, you know these games are just for fun with us. You’re the one who takes it too seriously.”

“That’s because you always win. I was so focused on beating you and finally winning our bet. Now that I have, it’s not even fun.”

“But the bet will be fun right?” Goku was hopeful. “It always was when I won.”

“You almost cracked your head and nearly dropped me when you slipped in the shower,” ChiChi reminded him. “Luckily,” she smirked, “I have a safer idea.”

“Which is?”

“Roleplay. I’m the princess rescuing her tied-up prince but before I free him, I take advantage of his vulnerable position…..”

GoChi Week 2021

A Fulfilled Life

Day Three Prompt: ChiChi and SSJ4 @gochi-week

“Are you sure you and Dad don’t want to see the fireworks show in Satan City?” Gohan asked. “It’s going to be a lot of fun.”

ChiChi scrubbed her brush over the grill gates in heavy strokes. She smiled at Goten carrying Pan on his shoulders as he followed Mr. Satan and Majin Boo in the airship. She checked on Goku laying in the hammock as he recovered from his food coma. The family had a big barbecue to celebrate the spring holiday. Goku and Gohan hunted meat of wild boar, bear and dinosaur. Goten skinned and cleaned the animals. Videl and ChiChi seasoned and cooked them with the traditional burgers and hot dogs on several grills. Since Mr. Satan bought the extra grills, he felt his contributions were done and relaxed drinking beer and serving Majin Boo and playing with Pan.

After the barbecue, plans were for everyone to go to Satan City to see the fireworks show but seeing how comfortable Goku was on the hammock, ChiChi knew Goku had no plans to leave and thought it will be best she and Goku spend the evening at home. She wasn’t too keen on going to Satan City anyway. Satan City was a ninety-minute commute and after hours of grilling and now cleaning, all ChiChi wanted to do is nap on the hammock with Goku after everything’s done.

“No. You and everyone go have fun. Your Dad and I can catch the show on TV.”

Gohan frowned at his Dad puzzled at his sudden need to take a nap after the barbecue. It put a wrench in the family plans. If Dad took a nap, Gohan knew Mom wouldn’t want to disturb him which meant they weren’t coming to the fireworks show. Gohan initially thought his Dad was pretending to sleep to get out of the cleanup but his Ki was so low Gohan knew he had to be sleeping. “Well, Videl’s Dad will probably invite us to stay at his home after the fireworks so we won’t be home until tomorrow.”

ChiChi dipped the grill brush in a bucket of hot and soapy water before scrubbing the grill grate again. “Okay. We’ll see you tomorrow.”

GoChi Week 2021

A Fulfilled Life

Day Two Prompt: Romantic @gochi-week

Goku added another log of wood to the dying fire. The flames grew twice its size from the thick log. Goku hoped that will be enough. It was the last one. He could go out and get more firewood but he promised to stay here and watch Celia. When Goku made a promise, he kept it.

Celia laid nearby on a futon wrapped in a blanket. Her sudden coughing had Goku rushing to her side. “Are you all right? Do you need anything?”

Celia cleared her hoarse throat. “You’re so kind. If I were well, I would cook you a meal. Seeing you eat, always makes me happy. You’re so adorable.”

“Adorable?”

“It means kind; you make people feel good. No one has reacted the way you have to my cooking.” Celia’s sickly smile was tender. “You eat every morsel and you’re always hungry for more. You’re special.”

Goku was used to being called names. Most were of criticism. Very rare he received praised for being himself and he received a lot from Celia. Celia was a kind woman. She fed him yummy meals and mended his clothes. When she fell ill, Goku did all he could to accommodate her. Goku never got sick but saw it happen to Master Roshi, Krillin and Lunch but Celia appeared sicker. Last night she was burning up and this morning she woke with chills and couldn’t move from her futon. If something wasn’t done soon, she’ll die and Goku didn’t want that to happen to a kind woman like Celia.

The cabin door burst open. A man in a bearskin coat, matching hat, knitted scarf and gloves walked in. He had a large sack over his right shoulder and logs of wood under his left arm. He kicked the door shut to keep the cold air out.

“How’s Celia, Goku?”

Goku took the logs of wood from the burly, bearded man. He stacked them by the fireplace. “Still sick. She looks really bad, Silas.”

Silas set down his sack and removed his hat and scarf as he approached Celia. Goku stared at the two confused. Celia was ill but the way Celia and Silas smiled at each other reminded Goku of those weird movies blue-haired Lunch loved to watch. She always cried watching them. Silas touched Celia’s forehead with his gloved hand. “You’re burning up again. Sorry I took so long to get back to you.”

Goku saw Celia wrap her sweaty hands around Silas’s gloved one. Celia didn’t allow any direct touching in fear she will spread her sickness to him and Silas. “You’re here now, Silas.”

“I have the medicine to cure you. I’ll make it now.” Silas grabbed his heavy bag and carried it to the kitchen. “I’ll need your help, Goku.” Silas placed the bag on the table. Goku climbed onto the seat and stood on it to peer inside the bag Silas opened.

A foul stench latched itself onto Goku’s nose. He covered his nose with his hands to protect himself but the strong scent penetrated his hands. “Yuck! What stinks?”

Silas pulled out a variety of green and color plants and wet, squishy dark red organs. “This is medicine for Celia, Goku. These plants are medicinal herbs: yellow root, echinacea, elderberry, hyssop, lemongrass and catnip. This squishy flesh is liver from bear and boar. It’s all around these mountains. It’s better than the chemical medicines used in the big cities.”

The foul stench made Goku’s head hurt. “It stinks!”

Silas grabbed a mortar and pestle. “It does. City medicines don’t have a stench. Chemicals are used to drown the smell. It makes their medicine less effective.” Silas placed the yellow root in the mortar. He began mashing it with the pestle. “Watch and learn, Goku. You may have to use this to cure someone you love one day.”

GoChi Week 2021

A Fulfilled Life

Day One Prompt: Wedding @gochi-week

When thinking of future weddings, ChiChi thought of attending Gohan and Goten’s wedding. She pictured fussing over the food, decorations and making sure everything was absolutely perfect. She imagined herself crying and being happy of seeing her sons marry. However, ChiChi thought that wouldn’t happen for another five or ten years. Gohan was 16 and Goten was so much further away from marriage. Another future wedding ChiChi thought of attending was Bulma and Vegeta’s. They were together for several years now. They had a living arrangement and appeared satisfied with that but ChiChi thought someday those two will make it official.

When thinking of future weddings, ChiChi never thought of herself marrying again. She was eligible but for her, she was one and done with Goku. He died and a second wedding for her never entered her mind. Without any daughters, ChiChi accepted her mother’s dress will be put away to never be worn again but on this momentous day, in her mother’s dress, ChiChi was marrying again for a second time.

To her first and only husband.

It was a miracle and something ChiChi never thought possible. After seven years, Goku returned from the dead. He was blessed with a new life. He and ChiChi got a second chance again to be husband and wife and parents to their children.

Things have changed between them. Goku was a wiser man, aware of past mistakes he made in their marriage and his own life. Those decisions were costly on his family but his loving family always forgave him. ChiChi mellowed over the years. Her quick temper had cooled. Oh, she can still get mad but she matured, too, and looked at every new day with her love again as precious. In some ways, they were different people getting to know each other again and in other ways, they were the same.

This is why ChiChi propositioned Goku with an idea a few days after he returned.

First Festival

Author Notes: For GoChi Week 2021. @gochi-week Pairing: Goku x Chi-Chi Rated: PG Time Period: Early Marriage / Pre-Z Words: 1,506 Prompt: Sports/ Festival Title: First Festival

“Chi-Chi, why are you dressed like that?”

She sighed for what felt like the thousandth time today. She had spent so much of the morning explaining festivals to Goku. She couldn’t believe he had never been to one – or admittedly couldn’t remember being to one. So much that she’d had to explain to him.

“And you really want me to wear this?” He held up the traditional yukata that she had bought for him. “I’m not even sure how it all fits together.”

Chi-Chi rolled her eyes. “I’ll help you. Don’t you think my yukata is pretty, Goku?”

“Yukata?”

“What I’m wearing. Yours is the same thing but not so bright and feminine, obviously.”

“Oh.” Goku looked between her and the outfit in his hands. “Really?”

“Yes, really,” she giggled, stepping closer. “Here. Let’s get you dressed. We want to start walking there before -”

“Oh but I could take Nimbus. There’s no rush.”

“Goku. Allow me to walk with you for this.”

He frowned, met her gaze, and then smiled. “Okay. If that’s what you want, Chi-Chi.”

She smiled back. He always said that. No matter how confused or oblivious, if she really pushed for something, he’d always respond with ‘if that’s what you want’ with a smile on his face. Like he was trying to say he’d do whatever she wanted as long as it made her happy.

And it did.

~!~

Goku let her cling to his arm as they walked through the crowd. Admittedly, it wasn’t too much of a crowd and he wouldn’t have any trouble finding her if she did get separated from him, but Chi-Chi liked it when she could hold on to him like this so he let her have her way. Especially because this was all new to him and he kept getting distracted and side-tracked by all the festival booths.

Not only were there a lot of people (at least for this area of the country; nothing would ever compare to what he witnessed in Bulma’s city), but there were a lot of sounds and smells, too. Mostly good smells and mostly laughter and people chatting on top of the occasional ring of metal or tapping of wood.

Chi-Chi said festivals were popular where she grew up and that she’d always been curious about the ones around his house. So when he’d confessed to not knowing what she was talking about, she had gone out and discovered the closest local festival that they could celebrate. Their first outing as a couple where they were out in public…

...which meant he couldn’t kiss her or do anything else, even though she kept clinging to his arm and pressing her chest up against him like that.

Grimacing at his inability to fulfill these budding desires within him, Goku turned away from Chi-Chi and tried to find something else to draw his attention. She looked really pretty, though, so his gaze kept shifting back to her. Her hair was pulled back with little tendrils of curled bangs falling in front of her eyes and over her ears. She’d even powdered her face with that makeup stuff she so rarely used, which meant the light pink sheen on her lips was probably because of that stuff, too. Didn’t matter. He still wanted to kiss her.

The dress she wore – a yukata, if he remembered the word right – was done up in bright pinks and yellows, little budding flowers on the otherwise white fabric. It hugged her waist, was slightly loose around her shoulders, and made him want to lift her up and spin her around, which he couldn’t do because she wanted to cling and walk.

He heaved a sigh, which earned him a worried look from Chi-Chi. “Goku? Are you really that bored?”

“Huh? No, that’s not it.” He blushed as he tried to find the words to explain. “I just, uh...”

Chi-Chi shook her head, then nodded off toward a stall. “Come over here. I think I smell takoyaki cooking.”

At the mention of food, his head immediately jerked up and he sniffed into the air. “Takoyaki? What’s that?”

Chi-Chi giggled. “You really haven’t been to a festival before, have you?”

“Nope.”

“Well, come on. I bet you’ll love this.”

~!~

Eventually, Chi-Chi dragged Goku over to a bench on the outskirts of all the festivities. They’d had some fun at some booths, playing a few games, which ended up with Goku accidentally breaking a few things and having to apologize to the hosts of each event. Then, she decided to go ahead and grab that food she had promised, stacking a few plates high with takoyaki.

So here they were. Enjoying a festival out here in the country, meeting some of the locals, and then sitting back and relaxing with just the two of them. She loved the way the traditional garments looked on Goku, even if his appearance never really felt complete unless he was wearing a gi. This was still nice.

Just the two of them now. Maybe one day soon they could have a child out here with them. She closed her eyes, hands on the bench as she kicked her feet in the dirt roadside. Wishes and plans ran through her mind, making her smile and hum. Oh, she could just imagine a couple of bouncing children running around with the local kids and with Goku. He would make such a fun father for their kids, she could feel it. And she couldn’t wait.

“Hm? Chi?” Goku asked, swallowing the rest of his mouthful. “Whatcha smilin’ about?”

Chi-Chi giggled. “Just thinkin’ about the future, Goku.”

“Huh? Really?” His eyes blinked, his head tilted to the side. “Why?”

Wrapping her arms around one of his, she leaned her face up against the soft fabric and took in a deep breath of his cool mountain air scent. “I can’t help it. I been thinkin’ about the future for so long, I can’t easily stop. Just imagine coming here every year! We’ll have kids and get to show them around and they’ll get to play with the other local children and oh – it’ll be so much fun!”

Goku laughed. “If you say so.”

She pouted against his arm, burying her face in the sleeve of his traditional garment. It still smelled like the store she got it from, even though she’d made sure to wash it and everything before today. Oh well. Soon enough it would smell like him just like all his other clothes. She’d never tire of that; maybe she’d even wear it around the house when he was out training for the day. Wrapping herself in his scent was always so -

“Hey, Chi-Chi,” Goku said into the peaceful silence between them. “No one else is around. Can I kiss you?”

Immediately, her face flushed and she jerked her head up to meet his eyes. Oh, he was staring at her, too! He must like the way her yukata looked after all. She had been a little worried since he hadn’t commented on it at all.

In fact, he took her by surprise because his hand came up and rested on her cheek before she could give him an answer. She couldn’t seem to look away, either. And when he touched her face so gently, a fire lit up inside and melted her bones down to puddles of mush. Lips parting, Chi-Chi tried to force air and words to form, but Goku had taken the hints – something he so rarely managed to do, but something he was getting better at reading the longer he stayed beside her.

His lips found hers, his tongue toying with hers as he pressed inside and oh, he squeezed her shoulder with his other hand, too. Chi-Chi closed her eyes slowly, taking in the noises of the festival – the hum of people talking, the sizzling of food cooking, the laughter and light flapping as the breeze touched the tarps over the booths. Then she wiped all that away and found she could hear her own heartbeat pounding in her ears, followed by the little puffs of breath as Goku kissed her again and again, unable to keep himself still after just one.

Chi-Chi giggled, though it came out breathy and weak because of the struggle to get air in her lungs, and she pushed Goku away from her every so lightly. “Sweetheart. I think I’ll take you up on that offer to use Nimbus after all. That way -”

A haze had entered his eyes, but he brightened instantly at the suggestion. “That way we can get home faster!”

Before she could say anything else, Goku picked her up in his arms like they were newlyweds all over again, swung her around in a circle, and then he bellowed for Nimbus, acting like there wasn’t a moment to lose. His enthusiasm was infectious, too, and she had to laugh and tease him the whole way home. There was more than one way to celebrate a joyous festival occasion.

Author Notes: For GoChi Week 2021. @gochi-week Pairing: Goku x Chi-Chi Rated: PG Time Period: Night After Buu Words: 1,215 Prompt: Chi-Chi and UI/SSJ4/ Post Buu Saga Title: Our Time

The kids were in bed. Gohan would probably stay awake for a few hours yet, but he was old enough now for Chi-Chi not to worry about him too much. So long as he kept up on his studies, she’d let him have all the time he wanted to himself tonight – and the week off to enjoy the new surprise in their life. Goten, her husband assured, had been asleep last he’d checked on him. That boy had been through way too much with this latest adventure and he was still young enough to be completely tired out from the sheer excitement of it all.

For her part, Chi-Chi couldn’t focus on any thoughts right now beyond the normal mental checklist before bed. Dishes had been cleaned. The house had been tidied. She’d had her bath. The kids were in bed. And…

“Chi?”

...and Goku was beside her in the bed.

“Something wrong?”

She shook her head, curling her legs up underneath her as she brushed at her hair and turned her gaze to the floor. Goku shifted in the bed, and she could feel the linen covers slipping against her feet. Then there was the touch of his hand on her bare shoulders, brushing back the nightgown before he landed a kiss to her neck.

Chi-Chi shuddered and shut her eyes. She didn’t mean to tense, but the action happened without her permission. Of course Goku caught the strange reaction, too, and his hands moved instead to rub at her bare skin, leaving goosebumps in their wake.

His voice dropped into her ear. “Talk to me, Chi.”

“I -” She started, stopped, tried again. “You were dead.”

“Mhm.”

“For seven years.”

“Yeah?” Goku’s voice cracked ever so slightly. “Do you not want me back?”

Immediately, Chi-Chi turned her head. “Oh, no! Nothing like that, Goku.” His eyes were so sad. Oh, she hadn’t meant to make him think that. “It’s just – it’s been so long. It’s a shock.”

“Oh.” Relief flooded through his gaze; his shoulders relaxed and he bent down to press his forehead to hers. “It’s kind of a shock for me, too. I missed so much.”

His dark eyes closed, and she was close enough to stare at the eyelashes as she breathed in his scent. So much familiarity. So much...nostalgia...just from the way he could smell. The scent in his clothes had dissipated over the years and she’d had nothing else to cling to in remembrance. Just pictures and memories.

But now she had him, and it made her heart pound in her chest like she was sixteen again. A part of her brain still hadn’t accepted that it was real. A part of her still expected to wake up in the morning and find him gone. Her vision blurred as she looked over his wild hair and saw no sign of the halo that had been hovering above him all through the tournament. Each blink made her think she was just pretending not to see it, that it would appear again, and he’d have to go back to the world of the dead.

But, no, he was here. He was alive He was home.

“Goku,” she whispered, shifting in the bed, reaching out to wrap her arms around his neck and press her lips to his lightly. “I missed you.”

His eyes slid open and the feeling that assaulted her felt like butter melting on the inside of her chest down to her stomach. He smiled and she lost it even further. “I missed you, Chi-Chi.”

Their breaths mixed with each other’s. Soft, quick, little spurts as the excitement and anticipation for more filled the air between them. Until they closed that space completely and Goku coaxed her mouth open to say things with his actions that words would never fulfill.

His tongue entered her and she moaned, gripping into the back of his neck, scratching at the edges of the back of his unique wild hair. Sometimes, she wanted nothing more than to pat it all down into some kind of more appropriate looking style, but now she wished she could mess with the stubborn Saiyan hair and turn it into some kind of tangled mesh the way he always did to hers when they got especially rowdy.

Heat filled her and tears pricked the edges of her eyes. When he noticed, Goku pulled back and frowned, wiping the water from her eyelashes, brushing back the strands of hair sticking to her cheeks. She pressed a finger to his lips before he could ask and put on a smile. Happy tears were nothing for him to worry over. The emotions flooding her just got to be overwhelming and she couldn’t hold it back anymore.

His eyes seemed to say he understood, and his hand reached down to slide her nightgown up from her legs. Only to stop when the door to their room squeaked open. Chi-Chi froze, heart jumping to her mouth as Goku stopped and wrapped his arms around her protectively. Of course when they saw the intruder, they both relaxed significantly and even chuckled a little to ease the new tension in the air.

“Goten,” Goku said. “What’re you doing in here, son?”

Chi-Chi mumbled under her breath. “You forgot to lock the door.”

“Yeah,” he whispered back. “Sorry.”

For his part, Goten didn’t answer. He rubbed at his eyes and stumbled his way over to the bed. Like he was still half asleep or – oh – Chi-Chi realized what was going on the minute she saw how Goten’s eyes were still shut in sleep. Her youngest had always been a sleep walker and sleep talker. Guess he had decided to get up and move around tonight, too.

Goku, on the other hand, tilted his head when the boy didn’t respond to him. While he pulled away from Chi-Chi and allowed Goten to crawl into his lap, rubbing the boy’s back, Goku looked to Chi-Chi with a raised eyebrow, as if to ask what was going on with their son. Their little boy that was such a mirror image to his father and looked so adorable curled up in Goku’s lap like that, too.

Chi-Chi smiled and spoke softly so as not to wake the little one. “He’s still asleep, Goku. You know how Gohan would talk in his sleep sometimes? Well, Goten walks around.”

“He’s asleep?” Goku blinked, glanced down at Goten, then grunted. “Huh. That’s funny.”

“Mmm...” Goten murmured, burying his face in Goku’s white tank top. “Daddy...”

“Heh.” Goku chuckled. “Well, I guess he likes me. And, uh, we’ll have to have our time some other night, then, huh?”

There was a slight disappointment in Goku’s question, but Chi-Chi smiled and gave a little nod. He didn’t seem too upset by the interruption. After all, he always loved his kids, and if Goten wanted to curl up and sleep with his daddy tonight, then, well, Goku wouldn’t complain. And he didn’t. She pulled the blanket back, and Goku adjusted Goten to lay the boy in between the two of them before crawling under the sheets.

“I’m glad you’re back, Goku,” Chi-Chi murmured as she turned off the lamp and laid in the bed beside them both. “I really am.”

“Yeah,” Goku breathed. “Me too.”
