Hey Guys hope you like the second chapter thanks for the fav's and reviews so keep them coming! I'll just leave you to it then... ;) B/V forever!
Kakorat POV
Some days were harder than others. This one was the hardest day of my life. Sighing I walked in the door bloody and soaked with rain water. This was one of the many secrets I held dear to my heart. I had just gotten back from ripping of my tail…again.
Yes I had a tail but I had no idea where it came from. It grows back every now and then but that doesn't make it any less painful to yank off. My fingers felt around the wall as I flicked on a light switch. My house was always empty except when Vegeta came over to spar in the back yard. I was all alone…as usual.
My adoptive grandfather used to live her until two years ago when he died during an earthquake. Magically I managed to sleep through it all but my entire house and the city around me was demolished. Luckily in his will grandpa left me a good amount of money. So I moved into a more rural area in the mountains and enrolled in a private school where people would be less suspicious of you.
Vegeta wasn't too pleased when I first arrived but I worn out his patience and eventually earned his respect by beating him in fights and spars. Grandpa was also a martial arts teacher so it seemed most fitting that I continue to fight with him gone and all.
One look in the bathroom mirror told me I was NOT dance material, not yet. Quickly I ran upstairs to take a shower and put on a fresh pressed suit. My hair air dried and always managed to maintain its shape, I couldn't remember the last time I had a haircut! I adjusted the red bow tie and flower pinned to the pocket of my jacket.
That's when I got a call…it was Vegeta! Wasting no time I hurried outside and flew as fast as I could without being noticed. The rain blinded me as it was carried with a wind that was against me. Suddenly bright light caught my attention as I quickly dodged out of the way. It was a bright yellow helicopter that seemed to be heading for the center of town.
Did that have a Capsule Corp. logo on it? More importantly was that a girl flying that thing?! Must be imagining things still I was sure I saw her and it looked like she had a friend in there too.
I shook my head at this nonsense as I lowered myself down to meet Vegeta's grand home.
I should just pretend I never saw it!
But for some reason I couldn't get the image out of my mind. Someone was going to the dance, someone that wasn't supposed to be there.
Vegeta POV
This day was turning out to be a disaster! I couldn't find any of my suits satisfactory to my liking and on such short notice I actually had to go to a PUBLIC store! The humiliation of trying on suits in front of that middle aged manager and how ridiculously stupid that girl acted when I purchased it.
Some people have no brains and that's what angers me. I could have any girl I wanted right now but they would only love me for my money or for my looks not my personality which to say the least isn't cheery. The good thing that came out of going there was finding and outfit that made me appear strikingly athletic while making me seem too good for anyone. It was a black tux with a dark blue tie and a small black rose pined near the breast pocket of the jacket.
The reflection I saw in the mirror smirked back at me as I walked downstairs. As fate had it my parents were also out of town though not on business. Father told me they would be back on Sunday and that they were simply running an errand but what errand could possibly take the weekend?! Frustrated and bored I gave Kakorat a call. It picked up after the third ring
"Hello?"
"Kakorat if you're not here in five minutes to leave for the ball then I'm going without you understand?"
"Vegeta look I ran into some trouble and I think you should—"
"Enough games! Be here now or I will personally come and find you and that will not be a pretty sight mark my words."
"Gosh sorry! Be there in a few, he said hanging up.
"Idiot, I muttered."
My eyes concentrated on the grand clock in our living room. My parents had a taste for interior design so our house was built and structured to look like a castle out of a children's book. The tick of the clock helped me relax until I actually made sense of the time.
7:27, damn that Kakorat! Aaahh speak of the devil!
"Hmph bout time you showed your sorry face around here."
"Sorry Vegeta I had trouble putting on my suit you see and the roads were all blocked so I flew here and I—"
"You imbecile! You risked being seen and flew here?! You know the price for showing off you true strength."
"Look it's not like I shouted out that we were regular humans who gained special powers by training intensely, now did I?!"
My hand left a mark as I faced palmed myself.
"No but you might as well have, are you sure you were careful?"
"Yes it was dark and raining but listen Vegeta when I was flying I saw something in the sk—"
"I have no time to hear about your ridiculous visions; we must leave now if we are to be fashionably late."
"Well lead the way."
So me and that clown Kakorat stepped onto the terrace outside. The rain still fell and was cold against my burning skin.
"Vegeta are you ok? you don't looks good."
"Shut up Kakorat unless you want to see me really not look good."
"So how are we going to…"
"Well simply fly the old fashioned way."
"But you said that—"
"I asked if you were careful or course I know that I will be."
"Such a hypocrite geez!"
"What was that?!"
"Nothing."
"Hmph thought not. Try to keep up."
With that being said I used my full power and took off toward the central plaza where the dance would be held. Being the tallest building in West City it shouldn't be too hard to spot it. The rain whipped my hair and soaked through my nice clothes but a blast of wind could easily fix that. Kakorat managed to keep up with me as we reached our destination in record time.
The ballroom was a large space with gold coloring from top to bottom with wide ceilings and grand pillars. The boys were mingled in with the girls and food and elegant music set the mood. Honestly the dance was a waste of time but he was an important person. He was the only heir to a multi-billion dollar company…all except for the girl who never showed her face.
Most boys he recognized from his classes but a few he assumed were from the second best Orange star high private school. Laughter filled the room as he found himself the only one not happy with the outcome. Kakorat had gone off to the food table and left him alone leaving him to lean up against the back corner wall.
To think that I would or anyone would consider that this was fun is surely mistaken.
Then the music stopped and the gallery of eyes turned to the front entrance near the stair case where at that moment my heart stopped. Two of the most beautiful girls I'd ever seen were walking one towards the food table and the other was headed straight towards me.
