Blurb: V/B Alternate Universe. Vegeta came to live with the Briefs while he pursues his studies away from his hometown where he was the famous rich heir. Conflicts arose when he meets Bulma, a fiery young woman, and they do not see eye to eye. Will they fall in love, like the Vegeta and Bulma we have come to know?

Prologue

"Mother! Why do I have to stay at some stranger's house? I am 18! An adult! I am old enough to take care of myself!" Vegeta shouted as he kicked the door to his mother's room open.

"I know you are an adult, Vegeta, but I still prefer if you live with someone while you study in Capsule City. Besides, it's not a stranger's house. Dr. Briefs, your father and I were classmates since we were 10. I will feel a lot more comfortable if you stayed with his family rather than alone in some obscure apartment," Vegeta's mother replied, not even looking up from the thick file she was reading.

"No, mother. I would rather…"

"This matter is not open for discussion, Vegeta," she interrupted, "I suggest you pack your bags soon. You will be flying tomorrow."

"As you wish, mother," Vegeta growled angrily at his mother, and slammed the door closed.

Vegeta returned to his room, his fury still in full force. The corridor has been littered with broken debris of anything that was on his way to his room. He sat on his bed, arms crossed against his chest. His mind fumed at the unfairness.

He struggled to find a way out of his situation but was deterred by the serious consequences of defying his mother. He shuddered at the thought of his last open defiance. It was ghastly. He had to attend every single company meeting and event for a whole week. Although he is the only heir to Ouji Inc., the world's specialist in energy power supply devices, he cannot tolerate the endless chatter of young and old women trying to gain his attention, in the office or at a formal company event.

He had jumped at the opportunity when he was offered a place in Capsule University. It was his chance to get away and go to a place where he wasn't that well known. He had decided to live in some obscure house in a deserted neighborhood and concentrate on his studies. What he had not expected was his mother arranging for him to stay with someone else.

Vegeta snarled as he grudgingly packed his bags. It didn't take very long. He was a simple person and didn't need more than a simple backpack for his travels, even though his studies will take 5 years. Anything else that he needs, he can always purchase new ones.

With packing out of the way, Vegeta laid down on his bed, catching much needed sleep. He has a feeling it's going to be a long nightmare.

Bulma sat in front of her computer, punching furiously at the keyboard, recording complicated programming into a tiny device.

"Bulma, take a break, it's time for tea." A high pitched feminine voice floated into the room.

"Later, mother…" Bulma replied.

"Bulma, a family friend's son will be staying with us for a while." The voice continued.

"Alright, mother." Bulma has gotten used to her mother's endless chatter and is starting to tune her out while she concentrated on the task at hand.

"He's very cute looking I heard."

"Yes, mother." Bulma's typing became more aggressive as she nears the complication of the complicated programming.

"You two should get married."

"Yes, mother." The computer screen starts to flash red as the processor was not enough to keep up with the complicated programming. A trail of smoke leaks from the tiny device as it starts to overheat.

"I heard he plays hard to get, but you won't have any problems, will you?"

"No! No no no!" Bulma panicked, attempting to disconnect the device from the computer before it blows up.

"You won't want him to get away or get snatched away by someone else, do you?"

"NO!" It was too late. The tiny device exploded in a small cloud of black smoke. Resigned at the fate of her tiny invention, she turned to the door of her room. "What was it again, mother?" she asked, but the doorway was empty. Her mother had walk away, not realizing that her daughter hadn't answered her questions knowingly.
