Pairing Goku/Vegeta
A/U -SPOOF. The tooth will set you free...
Chomp
Vegeta wondered why his skull was killing him. The last thing he
remembered was making glorious love with his mate and falling asleep
in his arms. It was one of the few and precious times they had alone
in their quiet nook in the den.
Warmth under purple satin shifted next to him blearily. /Vegeta, what
the hell??/
/What, you too? I can't get my eyes to open./
/Ugh, me neither...feels like my head's busted. What hit me?/
A pause. /?? The mattress is too hard.../
/Why is my face wet?/
/Vegeta...it feels like the floor. Kami, am I in a coma or something?/
/I'll gladly join you. My brain's spinning in color!/
Blearily the two saiyans opened their eyes in the dark. Goku squinted
at stabbing pain in his temples.
"Kami!" he rubbed his head. Vegeta winced at his outburst, holding
his ears.
"Quiet" he hissed, pinching his eyes shut. "Are you trying to kill me
with that noise?"
They took a few moments to assess their situation. Goku wobbled up to
a sitting position. Vegeta managed to roll on an elbow.
Goku held his head. "You okay, Vegeta?"
The ouji massaged a palm against his eyes. "Hai. Get a gun and shoot
me."
Goku blinked about in the dark. "I don't get it...hey!" he looked
down. Vegeta squinted at him. "What?"
"The mattress is flat...we're on the floor!"
"Kuso!" Vegeta glanced down, focusing his eyes. Satin puddled around
them everywhere. Curious hands groped along their ruined bed.
Dark eyes went wide. "Kakarot! I feel holes..."
"Me too! And the bedsheets are ripped in spots."
Vegeta managed to sit up as well. "But what could have caused..."
They stopped, hearing a small noise nearby. Goku put a finger to his
lips and pointed across the room, smiling.
Ox-that-Bites sat underneath a service tray, her eyes shining in the
dark. A small piece of purple satin hung from her mouth.
Vegeta laughed quietly. "Little monkey...are you trying to kill us?!"
Goku chuckled, rubbing the back of his neck. "Now I know what
happened to the mattress!"
The baby crawled over to them and climbed on top. Vegeta gently pried
the fabric from her teeth. "Yzari ibihe" (Crazy chibi) he smiled
lovingly at her.
Goku nuzzled the little mop. "Berdikta. You'll be the end of us yet,
girl. She must have bitten the mattress. It's no wonder a piece of
the sheet got stuck in her teeth."
Vegeta grinned at the thought. "Our heads probably bounced off the
floor in our sleep."
Ox-that-Bites gave a sleepy yawn before sliding underneath the
bedsheet and squeezing between her parents snugly. Small hands and
feet curled as she tucked up.
Goku and Vegeta gazed at their daughter tenderly.
"Oh, well. What's a concussion, more or less" Vegeta snuggled from
his side, laying an arm across the baby.
Goku yawned also, eyelids heavy. He reached across and linked hands
with Vegeta over their daughter.
"Yeah...besides, we have plenty of aspirin."
THE END
Someone better boil these kids some tires to teethe on...
