Chapter 38: Making you smile

Bulma was in her bed while she watched the stars that permeated the sky, neither Goku nor Bra had returned after almost half a day away from home.

'I'm stupid' the girl thought as she remembered her discussion with Tights, she had spoiled everything by saying those words.

Bulma knew that Tights was right deep down, having sex with Goku would strengthen her relationship but she believed that it was too soon.

Ten years of friendship and six months of dating was the total count, she now understood Tights's anger when she said that they were both taking a long time.

Sure, Bulma lost her virginity to Goku and that made her happy to a certain extent, because she wouldn't have wanted to lose it to someone else, but she lost it in an unorthodox way.

If it were up to her, she would gather the dragon balls and invoke Shen-long in order to restore her virginity, but that would mean erasing all traces of Bra's birth and she didn't want that.

She didn't want to have sex with Goku because, on the one hand, the dark-haired man still didn't know the meaning of that, because she was slowly discovering things. And on the other hand, because she was afraid...

Afraid of spoiling her relationship with Goku by rushing things like that, but her sister's point of view saying that the time they had been together would justify it, made her think that she was really wrong.

"I don't know what to do…" Bulma said to herself as she sighed and put her head in her hands.

Bulma looked at the time on her cell phone and saw that it was ten o'clock at night, she would really like to know where the rest of her family had gone, made up of her boyfriend Goku and her daughter.

"We are already home!"

As soon as she heard the dark-haired man's voice coming from downstairs, Bulma came down the stairs in a matter of microseconds and stood in front of him with a scowling face. Goku swallowed hard.

"WHERE WERE YOU?!" Bulma yelled and it was no wonder, she hadn't seen her daughter for half a day and like any mother it was normal for her to worry if something had happened to them.

Bulma narrowed her eyes as she saw Goku wearing a hat that said "amusement park" while in her right hand she held a huge cotton candy.

Bulma looked up to see her daughter Bra hers in her cart in a red shirt that had the same letters inscribed on it as her boyfriend Goku's cap.

"Well, you see..." Goku spoke not knowing what to say as he scratched the back of his neck, he wisely stepped back when he saw a vein forming on Bulma's temple, he already knew what was going to happen.

"Don't tell me they went to the amusement park...WITHOUT ME!!" Bulma yelled really angry and Bra let out a laugh at that.

"You have betrayed me, Bra curse!" Goku shouted in his mind when he saw that Bra laughed at the scene, his daughter had been an accomplice in the act.

Goku's mind lit up as he remembered the place where he and his daughter went after the amusement park. Sure, that would make Bulma smile.

"Wait Bulma I bought you something!" Goku exclaimed, joining his hands in supplication when Bulma was about to hit him with her flip flop.

"A simple cotton candy is not going to save you Son Goku!" Bulma exclaimed as she crossed her arms waiting for that gift.

Goku searched the pockets of his pants and after a few seconds of desperation he finally found that small box he was looking for.

"Here, you can take it with an apology hehehe" Goku spoke, extending the box painted in navy blue to his girlfriend, who took it without hesitation.

Bulma's eyes widened at the sight of a beautiful gold necklace with a heart shaped pendant inside that box.

"After we left the supermarket we ran into some friends that I met many years ago and since there was a park nearby I decided to hang out with Bra, there was a lot of money left over from the one you gave me for the purchase I decided to go to the jewelry store where you and I went before and I thought about buying it for you hehehe" explained the dark-haired man smiling at the journey they made today.

Bulma's eyes began to glaze over threatening to overflow with tears as her mind was submerged in a beautiful memory.

Flashback:

Ornaments stood out in the windows and several jewels of different types were exposed to the view of those who passed through the store.

At her entrance they told her to put aside the bags she was carrying. The dark-haired man obeyed that precept without any kind of problem.

Bulma was staring in awe at the splendid and ostentatious jewels that were displayed before her eyes in a glass case.

"Look Goku, what do you think of this pendant?" asked the girl pointing to a pendant made of amethyst that had her chain made of gold "Or how about this other one?" Bulma indicated another similar pendant, but it was made of ruby.

Goku scratched the back of his neck at that question. Really, what did someone like him, raised in a forest, know about jewelry and ornaments?

"I think both pendants are beautiful" said the boy, accompanying such words with a nervous smile. What else could he say?

"You think? Then I'll buy them both, do you want something?" Bulma asked with a smile and the dark-haired man instantly denied "I imagined it, surely you want to eat the jewels hahaha" Bulma added, smiling mockingly.

"But what are the jewels for?" Goku asked, blinking his eyes, he didn't understand the meaning of having jewelry like Bulma did.

"They serve to look prettier and more beautiful" answered Bulma, making a very ridiculous pose, a drop of sweat did not take long to appear on Goku's head upon hearing the answer given by his friend Bulma of his.

"But you're already beautiful without jewelry Bulma" Goku mentioned, not realizing the background behind his words and Bulma widened her eyes.

"Really? Do you really think I'm beautiful?" Bulma questioned, in the time she had been with Goku she had never said anything like that to him before.

"I think so..." Goku replied not too sure, taking his hand to the back of his head and scratching that area nervously.

"Owwws, I didn't know you had that romantic side, you had it well hidden Goku" Bulma added with a beautiful smile on her lips, nudging her childhood friend's side with her elbow.

Bulma raised the soles of her feet and gently kissed Goku's cheek for the third time in six months. They were friends after all...

End of flashback.

Bulma found herself crying not because of how precious that necklace of hers was, but because she was glad how much Goku had changed by her side.

He was much more attentive than before, deep down he was still the same naive and innocent boy as before but she herself had experienced Goku's evolution throughout the year.

She found it hard to believe that Goku had given her such a gift on his own initiative when he would never have done it a few months ago.

That made all her anger dissipate like a leaf moved by the wind and instead an insatiable happiness and joy filled her heart.

"Bulma...why are you crying?" asked the black-haired man with a tone of concern as he approached her "If you don't like it I can go to cam...

Her words didn't see the light as they were sealed by Bulma's lips, which joined her lover's in a passionate kiss.

Goku opened his eyes quite surprised and tried to keep up as best he could, putting his hands on the hips of the blue-haired girl, prolonging the show of affection that was between them.

Bulma moaned in ecstasy at the feel of the boy's tongue inside her… grazing her tongue without permission. She for a moment felt proud that she had taught him well even though she wouldn't let Goku dominate her.

'I have to stop this before it gets too far... but I don't want to' Bulma thought, summoning the willpower to push Goku away, pressing her hand on the boy's chest to separate him from her.

Her foreheads were joined for a few moments, Goku felt an impetus in his body that was prompting him to continue kissing Bulma and the same applied to her, she didn't want to stop here.

"I'm really not good at these things…I still have to learn" Goku whispered with a smile and Bulma gave him a quick kiss.

"I'll be here to show you, can you help me put it on?" Bulma asked handing him the necklace and turning for the boy to put it on.

Goku nodded with a smile and with some difficulty put the necklace on his beloved girl.

'And to think that this would be so difficult' he thought after having done it, it really was complicated.

"How is Goku?" Bulma asked, striking a pose again and flashing her best smile, Goku could only scratch his cheek.

"You look beautiful hehehe" Goku commented about it, saying this kind of things really wasn't his thing but little by little he got used to it.

"Oh yeah?" Bulma asked her, before jumping on him and giving him a hug "Thank you for the gift Goku... you don't know how much I love you" she expressed.

"I love you too Bulma" Goku asserted with a smile, he wouldn't change his current life for anything in the world because he seemed perfect just the way he was.
