CHAPTER 15: GOOD MORNING SLEEPING BEAUTY

Once again, Marley found herself in new surroundings. I sense a pattern taking form, she thought sarcastically.

A woman walked into the room. This woman had black hair and had the air of a mother around her. "Well you're finally up Sleeping Beauty!"

"Huh?" Marley asked.

"It's a…oh never mind. You gave everyone quite a fright Marley. Gohan has been in here every day asking about you. Anyway, you must be hungry."

Marley nodded.

"Well too bad, only broth for you. You had pneumonia and shouldn't be out of bed for another day or so." She said sternly.

"Yes, Viarkas," Marley nodded again.

"What did you call me?" The older woman asked.

"Pardon, it is Saiyango for mother. All mothers are called by this name when addressed by younger women or young boys. I forgot."

"Oh that is ok dear. You can just call me mother if you want though."

"Alright."

"Good, I'll be right back in." She smiled and left.

Marley looked at her surroundings. Pictures of Gohan and Piccolo, Goten and Gohan, and Gohan and Goku filled the room.

She heard the woman outside the room yelling, "Gohan! Give her a moment's peace, she just woke up. Let her eat first. Now get out of here, do your homework or something!" The woman came in the room smiling and carrying a tray with a large bowl of broth.

"Now try and eat this and then get some sleep, if I hear your moving around in here I'll come up and make sure you sleep," she commanded. Marley nodded. "Oh, and my name is Chichi, I'm Goku's wife. Nice meeting you Marley. Before I forget, Bulma's coming around in a few days to take you to her part of New Capsule Corp. She said something about experiments and stuff. Anyway, enjoy your food and rest." Chichi smiled and left.

Marley looked at the broth in disgust, Child food. She pushed her covers off and went back to sleep.

Later that evening Gohan flew into his window, not wanting to disturb her from her sleep by using the door. She hadn't touched her broth.

He walked over to his desk and pulled out a few papers. Then he heard a rustling noise. She had turned in her sleep and her tail was hanging off the end of the bed. He cautiously kneeled down by the bed and examined the tail. He only vaguely remembered his tail. Slowly his curiosity grew and he touched it. Her tail was about four feet long and had very fine, soft hair. As he touched it, it reminded him of soft silk. He cautiously stroked it again and then a noise came from Marley. She was purring. He let go, a bit surprised. But then he stroked it again, and it wrapped itself around his fore arm. Marley was purring, making pleasure noises, and squirming a bit.

When Gohan realized what he was doing he immediately tried to pull back, but it was no use. The tail had tightened itself. He tugged again and then Marley let out a pained noise and jumped up, now awake and held her tail, growling in the corner of his bed.

"I'm so sorry Marley! I didn't know!"

She growled again, and then slowly calmed down.

"What are you doing?" She asked in a low angry growl, but she more pained than anything else, her tail was very sensitive.

"I didn't know! I didn't mean to! I just needed some papers from my desk." He was surprised she hadn't attacked him.

"So you start petting my tail and then pull it!" She growled again.

"Sorry about that. But I saw it and it reminded me of my tail. So I touched it, and it wrapped around my arm."

A look of surprise came across Marley's face. Then she laughed a bit, it was kind of funny. Gohan, not sure what was so funny, stayed silent.

She got up from the bed and noticed she was only wearing her underwear and a white undershirt. Gohan blushed and turned away. Marley frowned and looked confused.

"What it wrong? You don't find me attractive?" She had no idea what modesty was, no Saiyan who was raised one knew.

"Um," he coughed and said, "no that isn't it. You're very pretty. But you aren't wearing any clothes. And it is rude to, um, stare. It is just a custom."

"Oh." She enjoyed the fact that she made him uncomfortable and decided to have a little fun. She walked over and stood behind him.

Gohan felt her breath on his neck and blushed a deeper shade of red.

"Sorry," she purred in his ear, "I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable. Maybe next time you wont sneak in on a Saiyan woman and start petting her tail when she is asleep."

She made sure to brush up against him as she turned around. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw him fly out the window and she chuckled to herself as she sat down to eat her broth.
