Chapter 8: I crave you!
Vegeta walked down the palace's hall from the rehearsal back to his room, leaving a long distance between them he was followed by Bulma who had the same way.
Suddenly a door on the side swung open and Mela stepped outside.
"Hey Vegeta", she said and put her arms around his neck. Normally Vegeta would just have pushed her away, but the past days had showed him the being touched by a girls wasn't the worst thing, and the best was Bulma was watching them, so to tease her a little and make her jealous he smiled and let her drag him into the room.
"What is it now?", he asked the dark haired girl.
"Nothing I was just thinking, maybe you want to over think your choice of escort. Maybe a real Saiyan girl would suit you better", she replied with fluttering eyelashes.
Vegeta smirked "So you were thinking of you right?", he said placing his hands on her waist. Vegeta was new to girl and love game thing but he was starting to enjoy it so he gave it a go and pulled her closer.
"You're so handsome", she whispered and puckered her lips leaning in for a kiss with her eye close.
Vegeta grinned and did the same. Seconds before their lips met some thoughts came to his mind. He had only kissed a girl two times so far, and that was Bulma, both times. She was the only girl he really got share something like that with and even though he kept trying to tell himself that he did not like her he had to admit that he did, and that he didn't want to kiss an other girl. Just in time he pushed Mela away.
"You're out of luck", he hissed and left the room.
How dare he, that ugly prick! Well, not so ugly, but why did it bother her that much. It wasn't like they were together or anything, she shouldn't be bothered at all. She was on the verge of tears when she saw him lean in for a kiss. Losing control and letting her tears flow, she ran away towards her room, not noticing Vegeta distance himself from Mela and looking at her figure while she left, regret visible on his face.
Zana was furious. How dared that mindless skank trying to turn her new friend against her? Bulma was such a good friend to her and Zana really wanted to keep it this way since she was the only one who knew about her thing for Tarble. Tarble... the next problem Mela almost had caused. Her walking around telling Zana was in love with Vegeta could have also damaged her friendship and hopefully soon more than that with the cute little prince. When she saw the dark haired girl coming out of that room she stopped.
"Mela come here!", she yelled the anger evident in her voice.
"What do you want blondie?"
"I heard about that nonsense you told Bulma. How could you do that she is my friend! Luckily she was smart enough to see who you really are, so just stop it you stupid idiot!", Zana shouted.
"No one talks to me like that, but you know what? I will forgive you because you will help me" Mela replied coldly.
"Help you? When hell friezes over!"
"Well you better get some ice then." Mela started and took a step closer so she was in the girls face Zana tensed as they locked eyes. "That's right Zana if you don't keep that girl away from Vegeta I will tell everyone your family's secret", she said coldly and walked away leaving the girl back with tears forming in her eyes. Feeling the tears run down her cheek, she used her hand to wipe them away and turned around to leave, only to bump into Tarble.
"Sorry..." she said without giving him a look and made her way down the hall.
"Zana? Hey Zan' , come back." shouted Tarble, his voice echoing through the hall.
When she felt him following her, she started to run, determined on not letting him see her cry. She had underestimated the young prince though and she bumped into him again, Tarble phasing into sigh in front of her.
"Now you tell me what made you cry Zana. Seriously, I thought we were best friends, aren't best friends supposed to share everything?"
"What do you wanna know Tarble, I'm really not in the mood." she said coldly.
"Well I noticed that, you're crying. Tell me what's wrong Zana." he said hugging her. Just then, Zana started crying harder, her hold on Tarble tightening. "It's okay, come, let's go to my room and you can tell me everything, okay?"
He held the girl closer and went to his room quickly, locking the door. "Now Zan' , what's going on?"
Zana calmed down and waited till her tears stopped. "It's Mela. She's gonna ruin everything and expects me to plot with her behind Bulma's back. I'm sure you noticed your brother and Bulma have a thing for each other."
"I did, but what does Mela have to do with this, except of being obsessed with Vegeta?"
"Yes, that's the problem, she wants Bulma out of the big picture of her becoming the next queen. and for her to become the next queen, she needs Vegeta. She even told Bulma a pack of lies, that I was a you-know-what, and that Vegeta was madly in love with her but I was jealous and got in their way because I want Vegeta for myself. Oh and that I was so obsessed that wanting to impress Vegeta, I got the royal seal tattooed on the back of my neck. I swear I'm going to kill her."
Tarble sighed. "Is that all Zana? I can feel you're not telling me everything. Don't bother lying to me, I've known you since we were kids."
"She... umm... yeah, that's all."
"Tell me when you're ready, but for the time being, stop worrying over her. Mela isn't worth your tears, nor your time or thoughts. Plus, you know I hate seeing you cry..."
Zana smiled, hugging him and kissing his cheek, missing his reddened face "Thanks Tarble. You're the best!" she said and left the room, her heart beating fast.
"I love you", Tarble muttered under his breath as the blonde girl closed the door not hearing his little confession.
Vegeta closed the door behind him, pressing his back against it he slid it down until he sat on the floor. It was Mela, her previous actions had aroused him, but not the way she wanted it. All these new longings she had ignited were for the blue-haired girl he had spent some days with on this planet. Shaking his head he tried to get her out of his mind, a girl should not be in control of him or his actions but it was driving him crazy right now. Actually the teenager wished they would have rehearsals 24/7 she he would always be close to her. Then it hit him. He was the prince of all Saiyans he could just go and get what he wanted. He walked across the hall and straight into Bulma's room who was just lounging on her couch reading a magazine. She didn't understand a word but it was one way of leaning the language. When Vegeta swung her door open she jumped to her feet thinking of what to do, she wanted to keep her distance.
The two of them were standing face to face.
"Oh hi Vegeta, sorry but I don't have time now I just wanted to take a bath", she lied and turned around to walk to the bathroom.
Suddenly she felt something warm and furry embracing her left hand. Turning around she found the young prince smirking. He used his tail to pull her closer to his body.
"I know you want it", he muttered
"I guess, but so do you", Bulma replied once more running her hand through his bangs. Then she cupped his face and pulled him even closer. Vegeta wrapped his tail around her waist and they covered each others faces and necks with hot kisses again. Bulma went a step further and gave him a push so they fell over on the couch with her on top she pressed her body against his tightly. Vegeta looked at her and felt his desire becoming stronger. He put his hands on her waist and placed her next to him. Then he quickly got up and left.
Nappa slammed the door startling his sister. Mela could be such a child sometimes that he had to contain himself from killing her.
"You really have a death wish don't you?!" he said narrowing his eyes dangerously at her.
Mela rolled her eyes. "Leave me alone Nappa, you know where the door is, goodbye."
"Shut up you stupid brat and listen carefully. Stop going around pestering Zorn's daughter or the blue haired human Vegeta has brought. I heard Zana and Tarble talk about all the ** you told them. Stop playing with fire, I have saved your pitiful ** a lot of times but I won't do that again Mela."
Mela got up from her bed angered and glared at Nappa from a distance "Who the hell do you think you are idiot?! I'll do what I want and I don't really care of what you think. I never asked for you to help me so don't you dare standing in my way or I swear that I'll forget that you're my brother and destroy you. I'm glad we got that clear Nappa, now get lost!"
What the hell was wrong with him?! He couldn't stop thinking of that little human and her kisses, her touch, her scent, those blue eyes, everything. And why did he leave her room? He had acted like a damn coward! That had to be some sort of joke. Vegeta, the prince of saiyans, scared from a human's advances. Completely ridiculous!
"Hey Vegeta!"
Tarble's voice brought him out of his thoughts and from what he could tell, he was extremely angry. "Why so angry Tarble?"
"Mela. You don't know what she did do you?!"
"What did she do this time?" said Vegeta sighing.
"Come on, let's go to your room or mine. We can't discuss this here." said the younger of them and they both walked off to the room.
"It's good to be back home!"
Raditz glanced over at Kakarot. They had been on a mission on a planet not very far away from Vegetasai and had succeeded in stopping the local rebellions.
"It sure is. Come on, let's go find dad. We have to report to the king." he said taking off and heading to the throne room.
