It Would Be Us Against the World

by xdobby13

Set in High School. Bulma and Vegeta have not spoken for over two years. They never planned on ever speaking again, but then, out of the blue, he calls her up and asks for her help, very cryptically. She goes to see him, knowing he would not have called unless it was absolutely urgent. What does he need her help with? Find out, in It Would Be Us Against the World! Thank you!

1. Chapter 1

Bulma shot up in bed and hit her head on the low ceilings of Chi-Chi's bedroom. She silently cursed to herself and wondered what time it was. She reached over to her to check, finding that it was 6:13 AM and that she had two unread messages from Vegeta. She rolled her eyes and attempted to suppress the urge to read whatever he had to say. What could he even want? They hadn't spoken in months, years even. Ever since... Well, Bulma did not let her mind wander to those dark times.

She turned her head to glance at Chi-Chi who was still sound asleep, probably dreaming of her crush, Goku. Bulma giggled at the thought, she doubted Goku even knew Chi-Chi's name. Her mind wandered off to thoughts of her current crush, Yamcha. Well, he was more than a crush. He definitely liked her, and how could she blame him? Bulma knew she was beautiful, there was no doubt in her mind. Why hadn't he texted her last night, however? And, why had Vegeta, of all people? They had vowed to be in each other's life again. She tried to distract herself again with thoughts of Yamcha and his pretty hair, but it was no use. She quickly snatched her phone and clicked on Vegeta's name.

VEGETA: Woman. I need to speak with you.

VEGETA: Call me when you see this.

The messages had been sent at around 1:00 AM last night. She shouldn't call now, should she? Although she and Vegeta had not been close for some time, she knew how much he valued his sleep and how irritable he would be if she returned the call now. Still, she could not shake the longing of what he had to say... It had been so long since she had heard his voice and she missed him more than she cared to admit...

Bulma was a very stubborn woman, but Vegeta pulled out a side of her that could be completely soft, at times. Although maybe even more stubborn that usual, at other times. She dialed his phone number, hating herself for still knowing it by heart. It rang once, twice,

"Woman," she heard Vegeta's raspy voice on the other end.

"What is it, Vegeta? Why do you need to speak to me? We said we'd never talk again, never be in each other's lives-"

"Would you shut up for a second? It's urgent. I need you to come to my house, as soon as you can. I just...Please come, Bulma." The urgency in his voice and the fact that he had addressed her by her actual name struck something in her, and she found herself agreeing.

She quickly wrote a note and left it on Chi-Chi's side table regarding her abrupt departure and scurried out the door.

So, what's going to happen at Vegeta's house? Why does he need Bulma? Well, if you wanna find out, wait for the next chapter and maybe I'll tell you :)! Hope you liked it. Sorry it was so short, but this is just the beginning.
