Welcome to Boxer & Rice

After our first night together, Trunks practically moved in with us. Most nights he sleeps with us in our bed but sometimes he sleeps alone in the guest room with the excuse that we as a married couple should spend as much time together as we can. And we are grateful for that. Days pass by, Gohan is now close to four and a half months pregnant, only one and a half months to go. Just two more weeks and his summer vacation will begin. He looks forward to it as it will also mean that from that point he has only one more month of pregnancy left. His stomach is getting huge, it sometimes seems like you can see it growing if you look at it long enough. He is getting this adorable pregnancy waddle but don’t ever tell him that or you will get an ear full about how he doesn’t waddle.

The warm summer days are getting to me. Slowly but surely my body withers away. I am only a glimpse of my former self. My mind is as sharp as always but my body just can’t handle it anymore. I have lost a shocking amount of weight and everyone that would see me now would surely know that there was something horribly wrong. Every movement is getting painful but I just press my lips together and keep going. I want to see my child born with everything I have in me. Trunks keeps encouraging me to keep the video blog up and so you can find me everyday behind my desk talking to the camera.

“Monday, July first age 785. Today is going to be a special day. The furniture for the nursery will arrive today and me and Trunks are planning to surprise Gohan with it after dinner. But there is also something else I have to do today.” I pull forward a box and I lean down to grab one of the items that is inside. “I know that Gohan and Trunks love each other very much. I love my husband with all I have, but I have to face the facts. I can no longer give him the physical pleasures that a young man needs. Let alone a pregnant half Saiyan who is horny almost every minute of the day.”
I brush the tears that collect in the corner of my eyes away. “Therefor I asked my mother to collect these and she delivered them to me today.” I hold up a small orange orb with one red star in it. “The dragonballs, all seven of them. I am going to wish for Trunks and Gohan to get their tails back and for a full moon. I want them to bond together in the traditional way. One, because I know that is something me and Gohan always missed, and two, because I don’t think that Gohan could get through losing another husband. It is difficult to make this decision and I know that after they are mated that they would need to spend a lot of time together and that I would be the fifth wheel but to be fair I’m already becoming just that.”
I lower the dragonball down to my lap and I look down as tears fall down on it. “I can’t get it up anymore, even if I wanted to. If we spend time together with the three of us it ends with them making love while I watch from the chair in front of the bed. I know I started this and pushed it on Gohan and I did it because I don’t want him to end up alone. But I never anticipated that it would be so painful. These wished that I am going to make are the last part of that plan. I have made my peace with it and I am ready to go now.” I sign off and rub the tears from my face before putting the dragonball back in the box with the others.




That evening after dinner, Trunks places his hands over Gohan's eyes as I guide him behind me towards the nursery. I walk into the middle of the room and watch Gohan as Trunks pulls his hands back and tells him to open his eyes. The surprise that shows on his face makes all the time we spent together on preparing this room worth it. Gohan lets out ‘Oohs’ and ‘Aahs’ as he walks around the nursery looking extra careful at all the small details that are around the room.

“You did this together?” He asks me as he looks back and forth from me to Trunks who is standing in the doorway.

“Yes, do you like it?” I step towards him and pull him towards me, embracing him.

“I love it!” Gohan cries out as he buries his face into my neck.

I stretch my arm out towards Trunks and after a moment of hesitation he accepts it and I pull him into our embrace as far as Gohan’s belly can allow that. Right at that moment, the baby kicks him and for a few minutes we watch in wonderment as we follow the movements of our child. At that moment I can not be prouder of my husband and the life we created where Trunks is now a part of.




That night as Gohan and Trunks fall asleep exhausted after they made love together while I watched, I slip out of bed.

They tried to make me a part of it but even if my mind is aroused my body just doesn’t want to respond anymore and so I think it is more fun to watch and tell them what I want them to do.

I put on some sweatpants and a hoodie as I make my way over to my study. I start the video blog.

“Tuesday, July second age 785. It is just past midnight and you are fast asleep, Gohan. Yes, this video blog is for you. I got mother to collect the dragonballs and she delivered them last day.” I show the box with the dragon balls. “I know the dragon can’t do anything about a natural death but I want to ask for a little more time. I wish to see my child being born but I know that if you get to see this I am not here anymore. Then it was also outside of the dragon’s power to give me a few more months. And in that case I want you to know something. You and I always wished for a Saiyan mating bond and now that I have left this world, it is a good thing as you won’t be coming with me.”

I had to swallow a few times to keep myself from choking up on what I wanted to tell Gohan next. “Since the moment I found out that you had a little crush on Trunks I pushed you towards him with the hope that you two would fall in love and you have. I can see it in the way you two look at each other, I know he will be good for you but I also know that you cannot lose someone dear to you again and therefore I want you both to bond in the traditional Saiyan way. I am going to wish that after you are recovered from giving birth that both your tails will return and that there will be a full moon so you two have a chance to bond in the traditional Saiyan way. My wish for you, Gohan, is that you will live a full and happy life. Make the most of it for me, enjoy all the little things life throws at you and please don’t change too much. I will never stop loving you and we will see each other again. Well, that is my signing off for probably the last time.”

I close down the equipment with a sigh. I have to do this, I have to ask the dragon for more time or they would find me dead in bed within the next few days, I can just feel it. I grab the box, walking it over to our balcony were I place it down. One by one, I pick the orbs out of the box and place them in a circle in the middle of our balcony. When I place the last one down the dragonballs start to glow. I place my hands over them as I’ve seen others do countless times before.

“Shenron, come forward and grand my wish!” I yell. It is dark outside and I don’t think that it can get any darker but it does. The ground around me is pitch black and the glowing of the orbs is the only thing I can see. Out of the orbs a spur of light shoots into the air it swirls around until it takes the shape of the dragon. Around the dragon there is a glow as if he is giving of light

“They who summoned me I will grant you three wishes”. Shenron leans forward and is looking at me. I have never seen the dragon this close before, normally, when the dragon is summoned I am the one a little in the back away from it. But now up close it scares me a little.

“Shenron, for my first wish. I wish for the moon to be restored.” The eyes of the dragon flash red and I have to cover my eyes to not get blinded by the light. After a moment he announces that my wish is granted and he asks me for my second wish. “For my second wish, I wish for the half Saiyans Gohan and Trunks from this timeline to have their tails restored after Gohan gives birth”. Again, the eyes of the dragon flash red and again after a few moments he tells me that my wish is granted.

“Now state your last wish.”

I have to swallow a few times as nerves are getting to me. I am really going to do this. “Great Shenron I wish as my last wish to be healed.” I knew it was outside of the dragon’s power immediately as his eyes didn’t glow red as it did the previous times.

“Your wish could not be granted as your disease is a natural cause.”

I knew it, I just knew it, I can feel the ground falling from under my feet. This means I am going to die soon. I am so gone in my self pity party that I almost miss the second part the dragon said.

“But because you are a great warrior I will arrange for you to go to a specialized place to receive the healing you seek.” The eyes of the dragon glow red and everything around me is swallowed up by a blinding white light. This is where I lose my consciousness.
