Chapter 9

Bulma opened her eyes and checked the clock next to the bed she was sleeping in, she let out a yawn and smiled feeling the warm body next to her; he was always so warm. She rolled on her side and ran her fingers over his bare back, she looked at all of his scars as her fingers came in contact with them; she never really had noticed them before, but they stuck out to her today.

She felt him move and then watched as he rolled onto his back, letting out a much louder yawn then hers had been. "What time is it," he asked, his voice was lower than usual, as his body was still waking up.

"Ten," she said softly, she sat up and crossed her legs watching the man next to her. She watched as he pulled the covers off of the bottom half of his body and then got himself out of the bed, "I'm going to shower," he mumbled before walking to the bathroom and shutting the door.

"Ok then," Bulma said out loud shaking her head, she knew he wasn't a morning person but she was hoping for a little more out of him since it had been there first night 'together' again. She shrugged it off not wanting him to already ruin her day, standing she got herself dressed in a black tank top and a pair of cut off jean shorts, she slipped into her flip flops and headed for the door.

When she opened the door she jumped back, Goku was standing on the other side his hand was up about to knock. "Goku," she said breathlessly, surprised to see him.

"Hey Bulma, I was just going to knock," he smiled to the blue haired woman, "Chi is making breakfast this morning but I need to talk to Vegeta," he blabbered on and on, trying to peak into the room, looking for Vegeta.

Bulma smiled at her tall friend, "He is actually in the shower right now, so you'll have to wait till he gets out; what do you need him for anyways, maybe I can help?" Goku shook his head quickly, "No, it's nothing, I just need to talk to him," he pushed his trademark smile onto his face and turned to walk away when he heard the door bell ring, he mentally cussed and his eyes fell to the ground, he knew this was what he and Vegeta had discussed the prior night, the mystery person had arrived.

His thought were broken when he heard 18's voice yell out Vegeta's name, he turned his attention back to Bulma, "Can you get him please," Goku pleaded and Bulma instantly nodded, sensing the urgency in his voice. Goku turned back and headed down the stairs, whoever it was he could feel their power, he didn't want to leave his friends alone with whoever this person was.

He descended the stairs quickly and immediately stopped when he got to the bottom, it was a woman a Saiyan women; he could feel her ki signature clearly now, the woman felt his presence and in an instant her eyes were locked on him. "Goku this is Kara she is here to see Vegeta, she said she got directions from his family," 18 spoke and Goku could sense her unsureness about the story she had been given.

"Kara," Goku swallowed and walked closer to the women who was still standing in the room; she was beautiful and the closer he got the nerves in his stomach knotted. "Vegeta is in the shower he will be down in a minute, why don't you come outside with me and I'll get you something to drink?"

Kara let a smile overtake her lips; she brought her hand up to her face and removed the stray black hairs that had fallen into her eyes. Just as Goku began to move forward they both stopped when a deep voice bellowed through the room, "Kara," Vegeta said in shock, taking the steps slower than he had been; he was in shock.

"Vegeta," the smile on Kara's face beamed now, she moved away from Goku and headed to where he was now standing at the bottom of the stairs; she moved quicker now, and as soon as she was close enough her arms were around his neck and tears were falling from her eyes.

The others in the room watched in shock, not sure what was actually going on right now and then their eyes moved from the display of affection between Vegeta and the new woman to the blue haired one a standing behind him on the stairs, confusion in her eyes.

Vegeta broke away from the hug and looked her up and down; she was exactly like he remembered, maybe a little taller. She had long black hair that fell to the middle of her back; her dark eyes were just like his and her body held the perfect amount of muscle. "Come we need to talk," Vegeta said placing his hand on her back, leading her threw the house and out the back door. He stopped on the porch when he saw Lexie and Yamcha sitting together on the swing, "Get the hell out of here," he snapped and they did as they were told, not wanting to piss him off already this morning. "Close the door," he yelled as they made his way past him, he was satisfied when he heard it shut behind him.

"Who was that," Bulma asked her friends as she made her way down the rest of the stairs? Her eyes roamed the room, waiting for an answer and then her eyes made contact with Goku as he shrugged his shoulders. "Goku who was that," she asked again, but this time made her way towards where he was standing.

"I don't know B, her name is Kara that's all I got out of her before you came down; I was going to try and talk to her but then Vegeta showed his face and that was that," he stated matter-of-factly. Bulma wasn't sure what was going on but she had a bad feeling about the woman that had shown up; she let out a sigh and headed into the kitchen where her friend was setting food on the table.

"It's ready," Chi-Chi yelled making sure that everyone in the house heard, she wasn't cooking anything else so if people wanted food they needed to get there on time. Chi-Chi watched as the room was suddenly filled with her hungry friends, all with plates in their hands, she felt an arm wrap around her waist and a pair of lips on cheak, "Smells good baby," Goku cooed into her ear.

She turned and smiled to the man next to her and then turned her attention back to the hungry mob in front of her, leaning her head onto his chest. "So who's the girl out there with Vegeta," she asked as her curiosity began to take over. She felt him as he shrugged and heard as he exhaled a deep breath, "I really don't know Chi, but I know she has Bulma concerned."

Chi-Chi turned her attention to her blue haired friend who sat in the middle of the chaos with nothing on her plate; she was staring out the back patio door watching as Vegeta stood out there with the other woman, her mind wandering to all the possibilities of who that could be. "Maybe it's his sister," Chi-Chi said taking a seat next to her friend, "Or a cousin?" Bulma snapped out of the daze she had fallen in and forced a small smile out, "Or an ex girlfriend," Bulma said looking to Chi-Chi?

"Nah she isn't his type," Chi-Chi stated looking out the same window that Bulma was, examining the girl. Bulma shook her head, "I don't know Chi I guess we will have to wait and see, he will have to tell us; he can't just leave us all in here wondering, I mean the girl just showed up at our door on our vacation."

Chi-Chi shrugged, "You never know what Vegeta will do."

The two Saiyans were now outside, away from the crowd of people who were all to curious. Vegeta walked down from the wooden deck and out onto the sand, he wanted to get away from all of the eyes that were watching from inside the house, and without saying a word Kara had followed him down onto the sand.

"I thought you were dead," Vegeta finally spoke breaking the silence. He turned to face her now, he couldn't believe she was standing in front of him. He watched as she smiled and tilted her head, and then watched as she walked forward, now standing in front of him.

"I thought I was dead too," she sighed, "But I wasn't. I woke up to a family that had found me, they took me to their home and treated my wounds," she spoke softly, pausing as she watched his lips scowl. "He tried to kill me Vegeta, he killed the others," her voice cracked but no tears fell. "He wanted you, he wanted me to tell him where you were."

"All of them," Vegeta asked looking into her dark eyes, "They are all dead except for you?"

Kara nodded, "Yes. I would be too if it wasn't for that family. When I woke up from the coma I had fallen into I remembered this place you told me about, the place you were supposed to take me when you rescued me; you never came back for me," she spoke softly, a lone tear rolled down her face.

Vegeta shook his head; he reached out and pulled her into his arms, squeezing her, wishing he could take away the pain she had gone through. "I couldn't come back for you, my father was still alive, he would have notified Frieza that I had taken you; plus my ship was destroyed from the last trip I took out there" he stated, not sure if the words he had said made it any better.

He felt her pull away from his body, "I thought you loved me my prince," she said sadly turning her back to him, facing the crystal blue water that was shining behind her. Vegeta didn't know what to do, his mind was in turmoil, he took a few steps so he was standing next to her again. "You reek like an earthling woman," she stated turning her head to him, "I guess you have moved on."

"I thought you were dead," he stated again coldly, "I was visited awhile back from one of the men, he came to tell me that Frieza had destroyed all of the Saiyans, that everyone was dead," he let out a deep breath.

"Well I wasn't," she shot back coldly, "I was alive and as I laid in that field bleeding to death all I could think about was you," she let a few more tears roll down her cheek, "Vegeta I loved you; I gave you all of me when we were stuck on that ship."

"That was years ago," his voice raised and he grabbed her by the shoulder, turning her body so he could see her face. "What do you want me to say to you Kara," he asked her, he couldn't stand the fact that he had let her down.

"I don't want you to say anything," she said softly, she leaned in closer to him and planted her lips gently on his, "I want you to show me how sorry you are; I have waited for this moment since the day you left me." Vegeta felt his entire body convulse as her words echoed through his ears, he felt her lips on his once more and without though wrapped his arms around her tiny waist. When his eyes closed he deepened the kiss and then he felt her hands tangle in his hair.

His eyes snapped back open and he pulled away from her, "Fuck," he yelled and took a few more steps back. He ran his hand through his hair and shook his head from side to side. "What is it my prince," Kara asked following his footsteps through the sand.

"Is everything alright," she asked him, reaching her hand out and running it down his right arm?

"I can't do this right now," his voice was low again, he turned his attention to the deck making sure no one was out there to witness what had just happened, "I need time to figure out what the hell is going on; I wasn't expecting to see you again, and you fucking show up at the fucking door," his voice elevated again, he reached into his pocket and pulled out his pack of cigarettes, taking one out and lighting it in an instant, he brought it to his mouth and took a long drag, holding the smoke in longer than usual before exhaling.

"Why do you put that smoke into your body," Kara asked, "Warriors shouldn't do unnecessary harm to themselves," she stated as she watched him inhale again.

"Don't fucking worry about me," he said coldly, "Look if you need to stay here then do it, but no one knows about us; Do not call me the prince, do not use energy blasts, and do not fly," he looked into her eyes, "Understood?"

She nodded her head, "Yes my prince." She was surprised at the sudden change of emotion that had just transpired within Vegeta. She figured he would be more than happy to see her alive, she was expecting him to take her into his arms and make love to her right there; but instead he was pushing her away. She could tell something was happening inside of his mind, he was struggling to keep his control with her, she knew that he wanted to make her his once more, but something was holding him back.

He let out a growl, "No prince," he said coldly once more and then his head snapped to the right the patio door opened and his friends were making their way out to the sand to start their day of fun.

"Hey Vegeta is everything alright," Chi-Chi asked as her and Goku approached the two standing in the sand?

"Mind your own business harpy," he spat at her and then turned his attention to Goku, "Show her where she can get cleaned up and see if one of those women can give her some clean clothes."

Goku nodded, he pecked Chi-Chi on the cheek and then let his smile take over his lips, "Come on I'll introduce you to everyone, they're all real nice," he was cheery and she wasn't sure about him. She could tell he was a Saiyan but he didn't seem to act like one, his body held no visible scars.

"You don't have to boss him around," Chi Chi spat to Vegeta, "You should show her where she's staying since you made that decision on your own."

Vegeta didn't respond he just walked away from where Chi-Chi was standing; he wasn't in the mood for a verbal sparring match, especially not with that woman. He headed towards the house and stopped in his tracks when he saw Bulma standing on the deck staring at him; her eyes were squinted and her hands were on each one of her hips.

He took a deep breath and began walking towards her again, knowing that he was in for at least twenty questions, all of which he wasn't in the mood for. His mind was torn, he wasn't sure what he should do. He knew that he had something with the blue haired woman, something that he had told himself they could never have; he had given into her advances and now he regretted doing such. He had never expected to see Kara again and the things that they had gone through on Frieza's ship so long ago had made them close, she understood him and he understood her. She was a Saiyan, the only female Saiyan left; they had planned to reproduce, to make more of their kind once they got away from Frieza. But that never happened, because when he decided to leave after his stint as Frieza's right hand man he knew he could never return to get her, to save her.

"Vegeta," Bulma yelled, "Can you answer my question please?" Vegeta snapped out of his though process, his eyes rising to her upset blues.

"I did not hear you woman, what did you ask," he said making his feet move once more; ascending the three steps that led up to the deck.

"Who is she Vegeta," she asked again, "And don't fucking lie, I can tell when you lie." He stood directly in front of her, debating on what he should say to her, what he could tell her without having her freak out and cause a scene. "We will discuss this later," he stated sternly, hoping she would understand that he was not in the mood for this talk at the moment.

"Vegeta I saw you," she said sadly, "I saw you kiss her, I watched from our bedroom window, I could see everything." He was shocked at the words that had just came out of her mouth, he wasn't expecting that she would be so calm. He could see that she was visibly upset and he knew she was holding back her true emotions.

"She is from my past," he spoke up. Bulma swallowed hard, "So what is she the one you want to be with?" Vegeta ran his hand through his hair once more, he truly did not want to go through this right now; he wasn't even sure what he was going to do about the entire situation, he was hoping to have time to think, to figure things out.

"Look woman, I cannot answer your questions right now; I don't have answers to any of them at this moment." He was caught by surprise when she wrapped her arms around his neck and leaned her head into the crook of his neck, he could feel wetness and he knew she was now crying; his heart ached wishing he could rewind the last few weeks, he could have just kept her at a distance.

"I love you Vegeta," she whispered into his neck, and with that said she pulled away from him, wiping her tears she gave him one final look and headed down to where her friends were all sitting in the sun; she definitely needed a drink.

Vegeta walked into the house and didn't stop until he was at the front door, he opened it and walked outside, walking over to the first tree in his sights he launched his fist against it, over and over again, his frustrations were high.
