The Prince's Adviser [Vegeta x Saiyan! Female! Reader]

Chapter 83~ Valentine's Baby

Year 780 ([Name]= 33, Vegeta= 51) [Kuriya= 4, Aoi= 3, Trunks= 14, Gohan= 22, Goten= 13, Future Trunks= 35] Approx. February 780

The next few months had passed without any incidences. That is—besides Goku apparently paying Hit to kill him. Whatever that was about—Vegeta was actually spending some time at home, since his wife had entered her third trimester, he decided to stay at her side, assisting her as her pregnancy got closer and closer to term.

He had spent nearly the entire winter cooped up inside, not that he was a fan. But that didn't mean he didn't want to be at her side. It was merely the fact heaters bothered his nose.

Term came much sooner that they thought.

"You sure you don't want me to break your water for you?" Bulma was tailing behind the King and Queen as they walked upstairs.

"I am sure. He'll be ready when he's ready." [Name] hummed as she glanced to her side, looking to the worried woman walking next to her.

"He's already at forty-and-a-half weeks. There's nothing wrong with giving him a nudge."

"She said 'no', Bulma. Leave it." Vegeta grumbled, his arm tightening around his wife's hips. "He's just being a spoiled sod; he'll be here when he's ready." He took a step forward, pressing at the keypad for their room.

"But, [Na']—"

"I just want to spend the rest of Valentine's Day alone with my husband. I promise, if there's anything—you'll be the first to know. Okay?" The Queen said softly, watching the door slide open. Her gaze was still on that of the human before her, she getting a sigh in return.

"Fine." Bulma gave a loud sigh, watching the two of them step towards their room. "Enjoy the rest of your evening, you two." She straightened slightly, starting to walk away. "Also, the kids are still at Goku's for the evening."

"Thank you." The King called, nudging his head into the room, moving inside with his wife. The door slid closed and the two were alone again.

"I'm going to take a shower. Want to join me?" [Name] asked, starting to take off her shirt.

"Of course—" He was quick to shrug off his shirt, starting to tug at his sweatpants. "You make me anxious when you're in the shower." He admitted, making her fluster slightly but nod.

"You really think I'll slip?"

"Just because you've ascended to godhood does not mean you can't fall."

"Alright, alright—"

"Let me help you." He stepped behind her, undoing her bra. Then, he helped her step out of her pants and underwear.

"Thank you, sweetheart." She said softly, walking with him as he led her to the shower.

"No need to thank me for this shit, you know." As they entered the bathroom, he turned on the shower, letting the water warm up as she rested her back against the counter. "You sure you haven't felt anything?"

"I mean—there's some rogue contractions here and there, but he's been actually rather quiet today. That's normal if he's ready to come, but he might also be sleeping."

"Well, I want you to watch out for it then..." His voice got quiet, he turning back to the shower, putting his hand underneath the water to check its temperature.

"I know you're anxious." Taking a step forward, the Queen set her hand on his arm.

"Of course, I'm anxious. He'll be here any minute." Vegeta turned to look at her, the faint pout on his lips made her smile.
