Ch. 8

Goku woke up to see that he was still on the gravity room floor. He sat up and briefly recalled what Vegeta had said to him: `I want you to scream my name like you used to do when we fought. I want you so much. But I can't have you now when all you want is to run away from me.' Then he had risen from his spot on top of him and left the gravity room after putting his pants on. What the heck was that?! Vegeta wanted him? For what?

Figure it out Kakarott, said a voice in his head. He turned around and found Sakura standing at the door of the gravity room. She looked annoyed with how things had turned out.

"What do you mean by that?"

"I said figure it out Kakarott. Your disguise as a fool is gone so I don't need to go along with It any longer." - Kakarott pouted.

"Why won't you tell me? Where are my pants by the way?"

"There is nothing to hide Kakarott, I've already seen that part of you before. Besides the only reason I'm here is because I'm hiding from your son." - she blurted out without meaning to and cursed when she realized what she said.

"Gohan? Why? I thought you said you and him never met."

"We've met. You just weren't around when it happened. I come and go as I please. Anyway, since the prince has obviously rejected you, I will now have to take you down to hell to meet other saiyans." - she decided to change the subject in hopes he'd forget about the issue.

"It won't work. They all hate me because I killed a couple of them when they came down to Earth to-" - Sakura raised her hand to shut him up.

"That was self-defense and no they don't hate you. You need to get pregnant otherwise-- I'm not sure what could happen if you don't turn up like that."

"Why did Vegeta reject me? He said he wanted me and I don't understand why he left when he could've had me at his mercy."

"That's just it. He wants you as his mate for life. You do know that little thing about wanting a mate for life right? He fell in love with you just about the time he mated for the first time with the woman... Briefs?"

"Why would they get together if he wants me that way?"

"Denial. What else could you expect from the prince of saiyans? Anyway, this is the only other way to go. Unless you will consider having one of your sons do it for you. That look on your face clearly means no."

"What can I do that will make Vegeta change his mind?"

"Change his mind? I don't think that what you need is to change his mind. Rather you have to convince him that you also want him as well. I know you don't but you have to try and put your fears aside. I give you a day to try otherwise you and I are taking a trip to hell."

With that Sakura left him to his own devices.

Once she reached the backyard, she sighed and decided to go to sleep. She had had virtually no rest since the god of Vegeta-sei had called on her with this new turn of events. Of all the things that could have been asked of her she had never expected to play babysitter to Kakarott of all people.

Not to mention that here she was on Earth again playing the part of matchmaker to Vegeta and Kakarott. And of course there were the pups Trunks and Goten and the princess and Pan. It was just not fair that she had been chosen to do this. She sighed. Tahoka* had also been cleared as to what his other wishes were. He had demanded that she also mate because she had also neglected to do part of her fate. She had not mated and that made the god mad.

She didn't really cared if she was forced to live for another hundred of years. She had lied. She had lied when she had said that she was only twenty years older than Kakarott. It was not true. She had been around far longer than Freeza. At 400 something, she was still in her prime but she was too damn old for both Kakarott and Gohan and this was the only reason she kept men in general at bay.

This had been going okay until she met Bardock. She hadn't lusted after a man in the whole time she had been alive and now there she was lusting after Bardock who had just been cursed with a third eye. She didn't touch him because had she done that she would have never forgiven herself.

But she did touch Kakarott. She had just had a gruesome experience fighting off Koola from the safety of the temple in which Tahoka resided and she needed something to kill the tension. What better way to do it than by having sex with the son of the only man she had ever lusted afterwards.

She had expected a clumsy sixteen-year-old boy and found to her amazement a young man full of surprises. She had had the vision of Kakarott defeating Freeza and she had known that he was the one. The descendant of the true legendary. The super saiyan.

She really didn't want to mate. She had seen and helped other females from different species give birth and she really did not want to go through that sort of pain to bring another oracle to take her place. A girl that would carry out her line of work. No way José. She would not make another female suffer her predicament. It was okay for her because she'd been given a choice, but it was not okay when her offspring would have to follow in her footsteps just because she was born with the third eye.

She'd rather live forever than give that responsibility to someone else. Then came Gohan. She had lied again. She had told Vegeta and Kakarott that she had not met any of the brats before, that she had seen them but they had not seen her. It wasn't true. She had met Gohan as a teenager as well like she did with his father. This time though nothing had transpired between them. But even though she could hide her feelings pretty well, she could not lie to herself. She had fallen deeply in love with him and he with her.

She had been at fault of course, why had she not decided to skip the bath this time around? But after battling with the kais about her not being involved in the next game of theirs, she had really needed to rest. So she had gone to take a bath in a deserted lake. Guess who found her there. Gohan had apparently been training and had decided to take a bath too. They found each other in the lake and he had blushed when he noticed that she too was naked as he was.

She had not felt that intimidated by any other man besides the lust for Bardock and the great time she had with Kakarott those few times they had met in bed. Figures that she would fall for a boy who was barely seventeen. Figures that after taunting Kakarott about marrying a girl he knew nothing of to find that there she was falling in love with his son. Life was just not fair.

Even though she had told him straight out that he shouldn't get his hopes up for nothing, he did. He had wanted to keep her safe, protect her. But living alone for the whole lot of her life and having to do all that killing, all that work on her own. Knowing what she did of life and the fact that she'd probably outlive him, she rejected his efforts telling him he was too young and that he should stay away from her. She had not even said goodbye. She just left him behind to find another mate. And he had.

Which was why she didn't really want to see him now. Now that he was in his prime and he looked good enough to eat. Ugh! She could not think like that. Tired beyond belief, she fell to sleep.
