Last Time:

Bulma had gone to the oak tree and waited, until she saw Vegeta running towards her. They both sat down and talked while they nibbled on their food.

"So, a year?" She asked.

"Yeah." He said taking a big chunk out of his sandwich.

"Have we…you know…done anything?"

"Yeah. Everything." He said as he watched her eyes widen. "I'm just joking you geek." He laughed. "You said you weren't ready, and you want to get married before you do anything. However, I'm ready anytime." He laughed. Bulma slapped him on the knee.

"Very funny." She laughed, but little did she know that there were watchful eyes on her.


"That asshole." Yamcha said looking away from the tree.

"What was that babe?" Laura who was in his arms said.

"Nothing. Let's go." He said pushing his girlfriend off in the direction of his car. "Maybe some time with you at my house would be calming to my nerves."

"Whatever you say Yamcha, just lemme go get my cheer clothes from my locker." She replied.

"No. We leave now." He said shoving her into the passenger seat and speeding off too his house where he would have a little fun.


"Vegeta," Bulma said putting her soda on the floor, "how much do you like me?"

"Enough to keep you around." He smirked.

"Gee, thanks." She replied sarcastically.

"So, what do you wanna do tonight?" Vegeta asked while taking a sip from his drink.

"How about we go to that party."

"What party?"

"Launch's. She invited me during Bio."

"Sure, there's nothing else to do."

"Okay, I have to go to the library and check out some books, but I'll see you after class. Are you taking me home?"

"As usual." Vegeta said standing up and holding out a hand for Bulma.

'This is weird. He's a little strange acting like a gentleman.' Bulma thought. As she accepted his hand and started to rise, Vegeta let go and laughed as Bulma fell back on her butt and cursed at him.

'That's more like the Vegeta I know, and love.' Then, it hit Bulma. She had just admitted to loving Vegeta. 'Who would have ever thought.'

From afar, as Bulma bent down to pick up some of her things, whistling could be heard. Vegeta instantly gave the guys a look that read 'Back off.'

Suddenly the realization dawned on her, 'This is a dream, isn't it? So school doesn't really matter.' "Hey Vegeta, actually, do you wanna leave? I don't feel like going to my next class."

"Goody goody Bulma has suddenly turned naughty and wants to skip. Interesting. Let's go." Vegeta said leading her to his car.

"What do you want to do in the remainder of the time?" Vegeta asked as he started the engine.

"I dunno, get creative." Bulma said putting some bubblegum in her mouth and chewing it.

Vegeta faced her and smirked. "Vegeta, you're such a pervert!" Bulma said once she saw his expression.

"What woman? You asked me to get creative. You know what I want."

"And you know you're not gonna get it. Well, until you slip a special ring on my ring finger."

"Why do you want to get married?"

"I want to know that the one I share my body with will be the only one I share my body with."

"That's fine with me. If you don't get married, you can always share your body with me." Vegeta laughed.

"Haha, as I said, either you propose, or you don't get any." She rephrased.

"Fine, but I want some sort of payment for my driving."

"Well, I'm always open to giving you kisses or hickies." She giggled.

"Sold." He said as they pulled into his driveway.

As they entered the house, Bulma noticed that it was a small house and that the flowers in the front were dying. "Vegeta, where are your parents?"

"Dead." Bulma's eyes widened. "What is wrong with you? You act like you never knew."

"Oh, right."

"Stupid assholes deserved it. After what they've put me through, I would have killed them myself."

"How'd they die again?"

"Aids. Drug addicts."

"Oh…"

"Well, what do you want to drink?"

"I'll have water thanks." Vegeta opened the fridge and threw her a water bottle. "So, what do you wanna do?"

"Receive my payment." He said half jokingly.

"Fine." Bulma said as she cuddled up to him and gave him gentle kisses on his neck and then his face. Once her lips were near Vegeta's, he took action and pressed his lips roughly against hers and slipped his tongue in. Bulma instantly remembered that her Vegeta kissed her like that. If she could stay in that moment forever, I would be wonderful, but they were interrupted by a knock on the door. Vegeta broke their kiss and went to check who it was.

"Hey Vegeta! Open up!" A girl screamed from the other side of the door. Vegeta opened it and looked to find his sister with a load of books in her hands. She hurried in and dropped them all on the floor.

"Hey Bulma! It's great to see you. It's been a while!" Joelie said.

"Yeah, it's great to see you too." Bulma said.

"Joelie, do you mind?"

"Oh, oops. Sorry I interrupted." She laughed as she hurried to her room.

"Now, where were we?" Vegeta said walking toward Bulma.

"Actually, I have to go home. I have to get dressed for the party."

"Fine, but this better not be the payment I was talking about."

"Whatever you say Vegeta." She giggled as they left the house and drove to Bulma's residence.


At the Party

"Hey Launch!" Bulma said greeting the hostess.

"Hey! Glad you could make it!" Bulma put away her jacket and heard her favorite song go on.

"Vegeta, we have to dance! I love this song." Revealing her sparkly silver halter and her tight black mini skirt. It looked great with her hair straightened. Her makeup was exotic due to the heavy black eyeliner and the silver eye shadow along with her glossy pink lips.

"Fine woman." Vegeta said as they made their way to the dance floor.

They moved to the beat and had a blast. Then, a slow song went on. Bulma took the opportunity to push her body next to Vegeta's and take his hand.

"You know I hate slow songs." He remarked.

"I know, but I like them." They danced for the next few songs, until Vegeta said he had to use the bathroom, and he left Bulma for a moment. Yamcha spotted Bulma and made his way over to her.

"Hey there." He said capturing her attention.

"Oh, hi." She giggled.

"You look so cute tonight."

"Thanks."

"So, Bulma, want to dance?"

"Actually, no, she doesn't. She's with me." Vegeta said from behind.

Yamcha turned around and glared at the other man. "I asked her. Not you."

"Actually Yamcha, I am with him. Sorry." She said sliding off of the chair she was in and walking to Vegeta.

"Vegeta, let's go."

"No. I'm sick of this bastard hitting on you."

"Well, you don't deserve her you nasty troll." Yamcha replied.

"That's it. You. Me. Outside." Vegeta said walking towards the door.

"Vegeta, please don't do this!"

"Bulma, he's a jackass, and one day, he might try something, it's better I take care of him now."

"But you could hurt yourself!" Bulma pleaded. "IU care about you too much to let you get hurt!" Bulma said pressing herself to him and hugging him letting her tears flow freely.

"He's going to be the one hurt." Vegeta said pulling Bulma off of him and walking towards the bully. "You should have thought twice before hitting on my woman."

"She isn't yours." Yamcha said pulling off his jacket and getting in fighting position. People were surrounding them watching the fight. Vegeta landed a punch on his face and blocked the next hit. Yamcha got one across his face and smiled as he saw his lip start to bleed. Then, the heat was on as the two punched each other, until one of them dropped. Bulma was pushed out from the crowd, but after everyone started leaving, she was able to see what was going on. Vegeta was bloody and leaning against the fence for support as Yamcha was on the floor looking a lot worse than Vegeta, considering how bad Vegeta had hurt him.

"Vegeta!" Bulma screamed as she ran to him. "Why'd you have to go and try to be a hero?"

"Because you're one of the only things I care about." He said as he lost consciousness. Bulma called for a first aid kit and immediately received it. She took care of his wounds, then, she dragged him to the car after grabbing their things. She then drove his car to her house and took him inside to her room, where she lay him down until he would regain consciousness. Vegeta woke up 2 minutes later, and notice that he was cleaned up and no longer bleeding.

"Vegeta! You scared me half to death!"

"Only half?" He laughed.

"It's not funny. The next time you try something like that, I'm gonna knock some sense into you." She said whacking him lightly on the chest.

"Fine, but for now, I need to get home."

"Oh no you don't." She said pushing him back. "You're under my care for the night." She said as she turned the lights off and sat down next to him on the bed until she fell asleep.
