Chapter 2

Not a secret anymore

"Mom." Bulma whispered seeing her mom at the side of her bed. The family doctor was standing beside her.

"Well now Ms Bulma. You are doing just fine. I've given you some medicine that should help with the nausia and drawn some blood. Do not fret. There was no damage done to the baby."

"To the baby?" Came her father's voice from her door way.

"Oh dear." Mrs. Briefs was quick to make her way to her husband. Stepping into the hall with him she closed the bedroom door and broke the news as gently as possible. After all Bulma was their only daughter and he was very reluctant to see her grow up.

The doctor departed a little while later to go find her parents. Chi Chi sat next to Bulma on the bed unable to contain her questions any longer. "So are you going to tell Yamcha?"

"A lot of good it would do me," She sighed heavily "It's not his."

"But I don't understand. He was the only guy you dated all year and we've been with you almost 24/7. I think we would have noticed if there was a new guy in your life."

"Who said it was a new guy. You know him well enough or as well as he wants." Her voice was as distant as her eyes. She couldn't believe this was really happening to her.

"Oh come on Bulma. I'm racking my brain over here. No cryptic messages. Out with it." Chi Chi started again. "I'm your best friend I thought you would have told me if something like this was going on. I mean why wouldn't you tell me we tell each other everything."

"It's Vegeta Chi Chi. He's the father. You remember we went to prom together."

"Oh my god... but you only went together because Yamcha had been threatening you since you broke up with him. Vegeta just wanted to make sure he stayed away from you." Chi reasoned. Of all the guys, at school, hell in the world Vegeta was the one guy she never would have thought of.

"And then we went to Davidson's party afterwards."

"Yeah I remember. Goku and I didn't stay past the fight. I had to go to work the next day." They had got good and drunk that night celebrating their upcoming graduation.

"Well after the whole thing with Yamcha and me. Then Yamcha at the party in my face. The fight with Vegeta. I guess I just started drinking and didn't stop for a while." Most of the night was really a blur all she remembered clearly was how many times she got up and got another beer.

"You guys didn't!"

"We did. And we swore we'd never tell anyone." Bulma's eyes were pleading but her friends were firm.

"Well you're going to have to tell people now. Just be grateful that we are already out of school and that it's summer already." Oh the rumors would have flew like a bat out of hell if they had still been in school.

"Small miracles." Bulma whispered before looking out towards her window.

"How are you going to tell Vegeta. His dad hates us." Bulma shrugged before letting out another sigh.

"I don't know Chi. I don't know how I'm going to do anything." Her voice broke as she started crying. Chi chi curled up next to her on the bed and wrapped her arms around her.

"Shhhh. Everything will turn out alright. I'll be here. You mom and dad will be here. You'll see it will all work out." They stayed like that for a couple of hours whispering little things back and forth about what maybe could happen. Their peace was disturbed by Chi Chi's phone ringing. Rolling off the bed and walking over the entertainment center she looked back towards the bed.

"It's Goku."

Just a Note: Again I'm sorry for how short these chapters are. I could have posted it all as 1 or 2 but that just looked a little …long. So better to have short and sweet.
