Fan Fiction ❯ Untitled ❯ Untitled ( Chapter 4 )

I walked out into the large, but dark, living room hoping to find some voices to ease my worry. But to my dismay I heard no noise whatsoever. I felt so alone and yet I wasn't. I had finally moved out of Bulma and Vegita's home. I couldn't stand living with them any longer, plus Vegita treated me horribly and really got on my nerves. So, I was now in my own apartment. I sat down on the couch and hugged my knees to my chest. "I wish Zelor was back from that mission," I whispered as my eyes watered up.

I couldn't cry and I wouldn't. I'm stronger than that. Plus Zelor hadn't been gone very long, only 2

Yes that's right I was pregnant and it was just because we didn't use a condom. That probably hit the spot. No one else knows… not even the father, Zelor.

`I wonder when he'll be back. Will he be happy? Sad, or even mad?' I pondered as a few tears trailed down my cheeks. `Will he come back to me in one piece?'

I let go of my knees and stood up. I walked out of the living room and strolled into my small hallway. I turned left and into my bedroom. Everything was dark and that's the way I liked it. I grabbed my bass and put my shoulder strap on. I needed to practice anyways.

When I finally went to bed it was 11:45 p.m. Well, my definition of going to bed is getting under the covers and watching television for a few hours, but that's beside the point.

I wound up watching Monsters Inc. again for no apparent reason. What can I say? I adore Boo.

***

I woke up to a small peck on my forehead. I about jumped a mile. I opened my eyes and about cried out.

"Zelor!" I practically screamed.

I wrapped my arms around his neck as he embraced my body. Happy tears slowly started to form in my eyes.

"Oh Zelor, how I have missed you so."

"As I have you, my love. How have you been?" He said.

I pulled back from our hug and looked at his face. I kissed his ever so soft lips and pulled back.

"I have been alright… I've got something that I think you should know first," I said.

"Alright, let me have it," he responded.

"Well, I'm 2

His eyes slightly widened and he kind of bit his lip, "It's mine… our… whoa. I didn't expect that one… yet. You are 100% sure, correct?"

"Yes Zelor, the baby is yours. And, yes I am 100% sure."

"Well damn. And to think I've been gone this whole time. I could have been here with you the whole time but that…"

"Zelor, it's alright. Don't beat yourself up about it. You're the only one who knows though - not even my own sister knows yet. I felt the father of my baby should know first."

"Oh baby, I'm so happy for us. I have really craved you here lately,"

"So have I. Wanna stay awhile? I'm wide awake now." I said arching an eyebrow.

"Of course I'd like to stay awhile." He responded with a smile.

I smiled back at him as warmth arose in my body. I hadn't been this happy for awhile. And honestly, it felt good.

"So, how'd you know where I was?" I asked knowing the answer already.

"Well, I sensed your ki of course. Now, since I'm new to your place, can you show me around?"

"Sure," I said.

I jumped out of bed and proceeded to show him about.

"Well, as you can see this is the bedroom," I said walking out of the bedroom and into the hallway. "Then, over here through the door on the left is the restroom and that door down there is the computer room and miscellany items. Um, behind me is the living room and kitchen. It's not big but it's not small either. What do you think?"

"I think for now it'll do but if ever you should need an alternative you are welcome on the ship. I've already cleared things up with Demion. Although he wants Cercina up there too, but I told him I wasn't going to make her do anything."

"He wasn't happy about that was he?"

"Not really but, who cares?"

"I dunno," I said. "It's nice to know I've got somewhere else to stay if I can't pay this damned rent."

"You'll always have a place to stay, no matter what."

"Thank you," I said looking up at his beautiful face. My stomach growled and I giggled.

"Sounds like someone is hungry!" Exclaimed Zelor.

I nodded and trotted off to the kitchen.

***

I placed my dirty dishes in the dishwasher and went to the living room to where Zelor was. I turned the kitchen light off and stood in the doorway. Zelor had his head relaxing on the back of the sofa. No words could explain how happy I was that he was back. I walked over to the sofa, knelt, and placed a hand on his leg. He slightly jumped by my touch. He had probably fallen asleep. He slowly opened his chocolate brown eyes and looked at me.

"Hon," I said softly. "If you're that tired we can go to the bedroom. You don't have to sleep like that, you know."

"Mkay," he replied.

I stood up and walked back to my room. Zelor followed, slowly. I turned to look at him and noticed that he still had his sword at his side.

"Here give me your sword, I'll put it over here for you." I offered.

He shook his head yes and handed it to me. I took it and placed it on the shelf that had been made especially for it. I turned and was surprised. He had already climbed in bed. Gee wiz. I climbed in bed next to him and laid my head on his chest. He pulled his are up around me and held me close. I breathed in his scent and felt his warmth and it made me feel good.

***

Later on that morning I woke to feeling sick to my stomach. I sat up fast and fled for the bathroom. A few minutes later I made my way back to my room. This morning sickness really bites. I looked at the clock to read 4:52 a.m. Too damn early I swear! I crawled back next to Zelor, who was still sound asleep, or at least I thought so. I pulled blanket up over my shoulders to get warm as I lay on my left side.

Zelor moved and I felt him throw his arm over my stomach. He just couldn't sleep without holding me. I was fine wit that, I just hadn't experienced this for awhile. He moved his head into my shoulders. I could feel him breath on my back slightly.

"Are you going to be ok Pipper?" He asked out of nowhere.

"Yeah, for now. It's just morning sickness. Nothing to be worried about." I replied as I closed my eyes.

***

My alarm nearly made me jump out of my skin. I hit snooze and sighed as I caught my breath. I should really move that damn alarm somewhere else before I give myself a heart attack. I knew that if that didn't wake Zelor up I did. I looked at the clock, it read 7:45 a.m. I needed to get up. That layout that was half way finished wasn't going to finish itself. I needed to make a sample image and send it to my client so that they wouldn't get bitchy.

I removed Zelors are away from my body and hoped out of bed. I put my slippers on and then left my room as quietly as I could. I didn't want to wake Zelor just because. I was sure he had had no sleep for awhile, or very little.

I walked into the computer room and sat down. I turned the computer on and waited for everything to load.

***

Later on that morning I took a break in the living room. I watched some TV but fell asleep to the low buzz coming from TV.

***

The mist around me was white and yet very blurry. I was in a large room, it might have even been a conference room of some sort. I was alone but in the next room I could hear some voices. I wasn't able to make out everything so I walked closer to where their voices were coming from. They were both male. One was Zelor and the other was some guy I didn't know.

I walked past a mirrored wall and looked at myself. I was wearing a long black skirt with a black tank that tied all the way up. My hair was all down and straight, more dark than usual. I turned my head and continued to walk towards the door.

"…Zelor, this is your sons future…" the other male said. "He will need to be trained immediately…"

"Kakarotto Nakiomo…?"

"…Yes…"

The voices stopped and a more feminine voice came in. "The Knight of Fire will need this when the time is right…"

***

I woke and nearly fell off the couch. That was indeed a vision. It was creepy as hell too. I sat up and rubbed my eyes. I suddenly got a sharp, throbbing pain within my left wrist. I gripped it tightly as the pain increased.

"Damn you Venom!" I shrieked following a seductive laugh. "I will not give into you!"

I started to cry as I felt as though my veins were filled with venom. I felt as though I'd pass out. "Nay ke low!" I whispered as I started to see darkness.

***

"Pipper are you alright?" I heard through silence within my head. I felt a trace of a gentle hand on my cheek. I slowly opened my eyes and placed a hand on the hand that was on my face. I couldn't feel Venom in my veins anymore and my head pounded as though I had hit my head really hard. "Are you alright?"

"Yeah I'm fine. Just one of my dizzy spells that's all."

Zelor arched an eyebrow and gave me a look of disbelief.

"Ok you win! It was Venom again. She's trying to take full control now and I can't keep fighting her off. It's getting more difficult everything she attempts. I should probably go see my sister about this one --maybe she can help. Maybe not. I don't know."

Zelor embraced me, "Have you went to a doctor of some sort about the baby?"

The question threw me off guard, "Why? What do you mean?"
