Disclaimer-- *Dances* I am updating, isn’t that enough! Oh and I do not own “Golden Slumbers” it is very old….

********************************************************************************************

Gohan sat in Bulma’s lap, playing with her long hair. “So let me get this straight Goku, you guys are going to The Kitty Kat Club for J’s bachelor party. I thought those where like the night before the wedding. Am I wrong?”

“I am knew to this. I actually didn’t have a bachelor’s party. But Adam and Jeremy said that Juunana deserved two, one now and one the night before. I thought that was normal.”

“Adam and Jeremy would say that. Any excuse to get in The Kitty Kat Club, they love that place. Let me give you the rundown on what will happen tonight, you guys will go to the club, watch some girls dance, get drunk, and then come back to my house and pass out in various places. Then you are going to hang up with a horrible hangover and swear you will never touch the stuff again. Then on J’s,” and she paused and shook her head and laughed as she said it, “second bachelor’s party, you guys will do the exact same thing. Well, have a good time! Gohan and I will be fine, and I will see you when you come dragging back in tonight. Tell all the boys I said hi and be good!” Bulma laughed lightly and stood up, placing Gohan in the overstuffed chair, “Wait here for a sec Little man, I’ll be right back.”

“Okay!!” Gohan said, his face, well what could be seen under the powdered sugar, lighting up at the thought of having Bulma all to himself.

Bulma and Goku walked to her front doorway and paused in the threshold. Honk honk! “I guess that is them…I suppose I should go. I hope you and Gohan get along all right tonight. If he is any trouble call the club, I’ll rush right home! Really Bulma, if you have any problems call.”

“Relax. Goku hun, how many times have I watched Gohan?”

“Well…”

“Exactly, true never at might, but I don’t think there will be any problems. I think you are just nervous about this. I take it you haven’t ever been to The Kitty Kat Club have you?”

The handsome dark eyed man put his and behind his head and sighed, “Truthfully B sweetie, I haven’t ever been out with a lot of guys. I mean think about it…First Chi and I were so young, and then with her, well you know. I was always with Gohan. Not much time for a life. What if I do something wrong?”

“That would be the last thing to worry about. I promise you will have a good time. Juu and Krillen, and Jeremy and Adam, and Yamacha? Trust me, you will come back here in a good mood. Now scat! Do not call us, in fact I don’t want you to think about us, unless some girl hits on you. In which case, you tell her that your extremely beautiful girlfriend will kick her butt if she doesn’t leave you alone.”

Goku laughed at her joke and leaned in and kissed her. The kiss deepened and Bulma brought her hands up to the back of his head, pulling him closer to her body. Goku’s hands traveled her sides, finally resting on her hips. Giggling broke the romantic scene, and the caught couple turned to see a smiling Gohan peeking from around the wall. “Tee-hee, daddy, let Bulma come back! We are going to play Candyland and finger-paint!”

“Well, I really better go now. Little man you be good. If Bulma tells me you were bad you will be in trouble.” Goku sighed and burst into a fit of laughter as he watched his son’s face go from very happy to very pitiful in a matter of moments.

“D…daddy? Trouble? I will be good I promise.”

“I am teasing, you know I would never get you in trouble, but do be good. See you later.” Goku placed a kiss on top of his tiny son’s head and then gave Bulma one last peck before jetting out the door, to the still honking car.

“Alright Go, what do you want to do first? Candyland, paint, make a picture frame….Anything you want, name it and we will see what we can do.”

“Um….let’s play Candyland!!!! I get to be blue! You can be red!”

“Okay little man, lead the way…”

********************************************************************************************

Goku sat crammed in the back seat with Adam, Jeremy, Krillen, and two guys he didn’t know. Juunana and Yamacha sat stretched out and relaxed in the front.

“Ug…man are we there yet! I am getting squashed back here! Goku man move your elbow!”

“Oh sorry Krillen, there just isn’t anywhere else for it to go. Maybe if I lean a little to the left….”

“Yeah much better man thanks. J drive faster! I will pay the ticket if you get caught. I have to get out of this car!”

********************************************************************************************

Splish-splash. Gohan and Bulma sat in her over sized Jacuzzi tub playing submarines. Gohan was laughing and splashing and trying to sink Bulma’s submarine all at one time, and in Bulma’s mind he had never looked more adorable. His orange swim trunks made his naturally dark skin look that much darker. Bulma reached over and wiped the suds off of his face and instructed him to scoot closer to her. “Bulma, how come we have ‘ta wear our swimin suits in the bath tub? When me and my daddy take a bath together we don’t gotta wear our swimin suits.”

Bulma laughed loudly and ducked her head under the water, when she emerged she said, “Well, Go, um…I thought it would be more fun this way! Yeah….kind of like we were swimming. See? Does that make sense to you?”

“Uh huh! Like a game!”

“Yes just like a game, but we better get that glue and paint out of your hair. Scoot over here and lean your head back.” Bulma picked up a pitcher and slowly poured warm water over Gohan’s dark hair. “This is how my mommy used to wash my hair when I was little…” The bright eyed beauty fell silent for a moment, until Gohan patted her leg, bringing her back to reality.

“Bulma are you okay? You gotted quite, are you sad? Did I do something?”

Bulma looked down into the obsidian eyes of a very upset little boy. The black orbs shined with unshed tears. “Gohan honey, you did nothing wrong. In fact you are as close to perfect as I have ever seen, I am very lucky to have you and your daddy in my life. Maybe when you are older you will understand why I get sad about silly things sometimes.” She pulled the tiny boy into her lap and began patting his head and talking in soothing tones, hoping to calm his nerves and keep him from crying. “Have I ever told you about my mom Gohan? I don’t think I have, would you like to hear about her?” The little boy nodded his head furiously, hoping Bulma would keep petting him and talking to him. “My mom was very pretty. She had blonde hair and she always smiled. She also made the world’s best peanut butter cookies. The secret was peanut butter chips in the mix, yep the where the best. Her name was Bunny and she was the sweetest, nicest woman ever.”

“I bet she,” Gohan let out a huge yawn then resumed his musing, “wasn’t as nice or pretty as you. No one is, not even my real mommy. She had dark hair and looks mad a lot. My daddy showed me pictures of her.”

“Do you not remember her?”

“No. All I remember is my daddy, and now,” he snuggled deeper into her chest and yawned once more, “I have you.”

Bulma felt tears welling in her crystalline eyes and quickly blinked them away. “Well Go as I was saying, my mom was great. She made me lunch everyday and always tucked me in at night. And if I was scared or couldn’t sleep, she would sing me a song. It wasn’t one she made up, but it still meant a lot to me. I bet you’ve heard it, ‘Golden slumber kiss your eyes, Smiles await you when you rise, Care you know not, Therefore sleep, While o’er you watch do keep, Sleep, Pretty darling, And do not cry, and I will sing you a lullaby.’ Have you heard that before Gohan?”

“…”

“Gohan?” Bulma looked down and saw her mother’s favorite lullaby still had the power to lull any child to sleep, Gohan was silently dreaming in her arms. “Thanks mom.” Bulma held Gohan tight against her body and cautiously stepped out of the tub. “Boy Gohan, for being so tiny, you weigh quite a bit.” Bulma let out a small groan and steadied herself against the bathroom counter. She nudged the door open with her hip and walked quickly into her room. She gently lay Gohan down on her bed and slipped into her robe. Then she picked up an overly fluffed towel and wrapped Gohan up in it. Then she carried him to “his room” and slipped his orange bottoms off, and his batman underoos on. After he was dressed she pulled the covers up to his chin and ruffled his hair. “Gohan you are beautiful. Just like your father. Maybe one day I will be the one you call mommy.” She placed a gentle kiss on his forehead, and left the tiny tot to his dreams.

********************************************************************************************

Goku looked at his companions, they were completely enamored with the big busted pole dancer waving her fanny in their face. He shook his head a took a long sip of his whiskey and coke before turning his attention to the spotlight where a blue haired beauty stepped out. Goku immediately thought of Bulma, not that the lanky stripper resembled her, but none the less his thoughts were drawn to her. “I hope she and Gohan are doing alright. Maybe I should call….No she told me specifically not to. She wants me to have a good time. They are fine.” Goku finished off the drink and signaled for another before focusing fully on the dancer.

“Hey man, how are you enjoying your first official bachelor party? Pretty interesting isn’t it?”

Goku looked over at the smaller man and laughed, “Yeah Krillen, it is defiantly interesting, You know I am surprised the girls let us go so willingly, I mean Bulma was practically pushing me out the door.”

“Yeah Juuhachai was too. But don’t think that we got to come because they are so giving, nope they have a little night of their own planned, and by letting us come to this one, no strings attached, they expect the same.”

“Hey Goku, did Bulma say anything about us sleeping at her house?” The celebrating hubby to be questioned.

“Yeah she said we’d all end up there drunk and probably sick, but to make sure one of us was decent enough to drive and give bathroom directions.”

“Well I nominate you for that job rookie!” Goku turned to see Yamacha, his eyes still glued to the blue haired girl. “Mandy told me not to come to her house if I planned on drinking more than normal, so I am bunking with you guys.”

“Well everyone drink up! Goku is D-D’ing so that means we should get sloshing drunk.” Every head at the table nodded up and down and Goku laughed and looked at his now full Jack and Coke. Juunana patted him on the back and said, “Better nurse it! It’s going to be a long night!”

********************************************************************************************

Bulma sat in her den, sipping hot tea and reading, when the phone rang. Her face lit up in a huge grin, “That sweetheart! I told him not to call!” She picked up the phone and warmly spoke into it, “Hey honey, everything is fine.”

The voice that greeted her however, ran her blood cold. It wasn’t the deep, warm, rich baritone she had grown to love, instead it was a deeper, sinister, hate filled voice that seemed to almost hiss with anger. “Listen up you two bit whore. Your life is perfect, but just wait…it’s going to crash down around you and cut you to the core! Watch your back pretty girl, happiness is fleeting.” Then the voice was gone, replaced by the incessant beeping of a disconnected number…

********************************************************************************************

Goku and the others stumbled into Bulma’s “cottage” around 3:30 that morning, and Bulma was still up. Upon seeing her disheveled state Goku immediately sobered up and rushed to her side. “Bulma honey! What happened? Are you okay? Did someone hurt you? Where is Gohan?”

“Shhhh…..everything is fine. I will talk to you in a minute. Help me get everyone settled first. I will explain after that.” The weary couple worked to get a very drunk Yamacha quieted and into bed, a sick Krillen cleaned up, and a passed out Juunana into a nearby chair. Once that was all done the now exhausted pair climbed into Bulma’s bed. Bulma rested her head on Goku’s chest and then she whispered, “Someone called here and threatened me.”

Goku sat bolt upright, “What! Who was it, what did they say!”

“Shhhh….you’ll wake Gohan. I don’t know who it was, in fact I couldn’t even tell if it was a man or a woman! Kami Goku who could it be?”

The gentle man pulled his scared love tighter against his chest, and began to rub reassuring circles up and down her arms. “We’ll figure this out, no one is going to hurt you or Gohan while I’m around. You understand me?”

Bulma nodded and yawned, then she sighed and asked, “So how was the evening?”

“Interesting. Can’t say it was that great, but it didn’t suck to much either. I wish I had been at home now though, could have heard that voice…”

“Don’t beat yourself up over it, I mean yeah, it totally freaked me out, but there isn’t anything we can do. Except be extra careful. Now tell me the grisly details of the huge flesh filled debacle in which you participated.”

Goku laughed and kissed the top of her head, “Actually it wasn’t that much of a ‘debacle’ as you put it. I did get asked a lot of questions about us though.”

“Oh really?” the brainy beauty asked, her eyebrows rising in curiosity.

“Yeah J wanted to know if you and I had slept together.”

“Well what did you tell him?”

“The truth. No. He looked at me like a was full of crap, and said ‘You and Gohan stay there or she stays with you at least three nights awake, are you trying to tell me you guys haven’t done the deed yet?’ And I said, ‘Bulma and I sleep in the same bed yes, but we haven’t had sex yet.’ Was that a good answer?”

Bulma laughed and closed her eyes, “The truth is always a good answer. Now lets try to get some sleep.”

“Okay, goodnight B, I love you.”

“Oh Goku, I love you too.”
