8 year old Trunks sat alone in his room playing video games, much like every other Saturday afternoon in his recent memory. He and Goten had decided to pick up a new platform game and Trunks was finally past the level he and his friend had been failing to beat for days. In fact, he was three levels ahead! He was silently thinking of how best to brag to Goten when his thoughts were interrupted by his father crashing through the front door.
"WOMAN! GET IN HERE!" Vegeta bellowed in the general direction of Bulma's lab.
"WHAT HAVE I TOLD YOU ABOUT CALLING ME "WOMAN"? I HAVE A NAME!" Bulma screeched back.
Vegeta leaned against the door frame of the lab, "Bulma... please. It's very important."
"I'll be there in just a second." Slightly confused and more slightly worried, Bulma finished up her last calculations and walked into the living room. When she saw Vegeta, her hands flew up to her mouth and she attempted to stifle a gasp. Vegeta was dressed up; He was wearing dark dress slacks, a black, button up shirt and fully shined dress shoes.
Tears came to her eyes as he pulled a small blue box from his pocket. He knelt before her and opened the box, presenting her with the small golden band adorned with a large, gleaming diamond. "I can think of nothing worse than not having you by my side. It would be a great honor to myself and my people for you to become my queen."
Bulma's small attempt to keep herself from crying failed completely as tears openly streamed down her face. She picked up the precious contents of the little box and slipped it on her finger. "Nothing would make me happier!" She choked out quietly. Vegeta stood and embraced his new fiancé as Trunks peaked through the small crack he always left between his door and the wall and smiled the biggest smile he could ever remember smiling.
