Hello everyone!
I'm sorry again for it being out so late and if you had read my bio I didn't exactly have the coolest summer ever… not by a long shot…
My friends call me Harry Potter now not just by the new scar on my head but all the bad stuff that keeps happening to me after I had gotten it…
Oh well on to better news here is the next chapter for Why Me! Hope you all enjoy!
Why Me:
Vegeta couldn't sleep.
'So much going on tomorrow and so many things to do before…' his thoughts continuing on as he stared into space.
He was anxious about the wedding and his future with Bulma.
When he had first met her he'd have killed her long before now if she didn't have that spark of life that made him want to wait and see what happens next.
He found himself getting angrier at times then somewhat amused by her antics and now he couldn't picture a life without her in it on a daily basis.
'Now what? What happens if it doesn't work out?' Vegeta thought an image of Bulma leaving the palace angry to never return again.
His chest began to hurt at the thought.
Vegeta stood up and dressed quickly because he needed to take a walk to clear his mind.
Meanwhile…
Bulma had it.
Here on her bed was the undeniable truth of Vegeta's feelings.
At first she had thought it was some corny love song that Chi wanted her to hear.
When it had started off it was a static garbled mess with what sounded like an argument.
When the voice got clearer she heard Goku's voice then the undeniable roar of Vegeta's.
She heard the blackmail part and giggled.
'That's so Chi she rigged this!' Bulma thought grinning slyly
Then Vegeta said it
'Why would Vegeta fear his father? Isn't he the strongest? Don't see what his father could do to make him actually do this.' Bulma thought
'I mean he could've killed his father at anytime he wanted and forced his people let him have the throne.' She thought more in deep concentration.
"He also could have killed me…" Bulma said now realizing how close she had been at death's door. She knew people had been terrified of him so it could only mean he had once, or more, proved how capable he was at carrying out his threats.
But he never did…
He even tried to make the situation pleasant with the date he had rigged.
Then those beautiful flowers that even stunned the King when she had told him about them.
His obvious Jealousness when he had mistaken the words, she had thought, for someone else.
The weird bond growing between him and her allowing him to read her thoughts as if reaching out to her to join in.
'He really does like me' she smiled liking the fact she was not bothered by that thought at all as she pieced it all together.
She replayed the tape then grabbed his Valentine to take it to him clutching it to her chest all the way.
Vegeta was making his way to the garden to get some flowers prepared for tomorrow.
'Flowers won't be enough I need to do more' Vegeta thought.
'I will ask her father for any more details on human tradition' Vegeta thought as he turned to go down another hallway only to run into someone.
"WOULD YOU WATCH…" Vegeta roared catching himself noticing it was Bulma…in her night gown…and a Valentine card clutched to her chest looking wide eyed at him.
"Oh…it's you… what're you doing up?" Vegeta was uncomfortable, he had never been good at striking up a conversation, arguments were another matter.
Bulma caught his uneasiness and smiled.
"I wanted to put your Valentine at your door but since you're up I'll give it to you now" Bulma handed him the card
"But I don't have yours…" Vegeta said only to be cut off by a hug.
"It's alright I can wait" She said then kissed him, it was only a peck on the lips, but it was a kiss.
"Goodnight" She then let go of her embrace before Vegeta could get over his shock and embrace her back. She'd never be able to leave if he had.
Vegeta watched her walk off happily back to her room.
That hug and kiss devoid his mind of his fear and was replaced by desire and a blessing for their future.
He looked at the Valentine and opened it and began to read.
Vegeta,
I don't know how many times I've rewritten this card.
I didn't know what to say when I didn't know how I truly felt about you.
Now I know how I feel.
This is what I have to say.
I LOVE YOU,
Love, Bulma
P.S. Hope you enjoy the candy!
Taped onto the card was one of those chalky tasting candies he detested with the words "I Wuv U' written on it.
Vegeta, who had been in awe over the beautiful card that was like a piece of Bulma's heart given to him, was now confused by the candy.
"Wuv? What is this wuv you speak of?" He said looking at it between his fingers.
"I think you're supposed to eat it" came a voice beside him
"GAH! WHERE THE HELL DID YOU COME FROM OLD MAN!?" Vegeta yelled at the King who had come out of nowhere.
"Oh that doesn't matter! What matters right now is that you eat the candy." King Vegeta said sternly
"IT DOES TO MATTER! And do I have to?" Vegeta said looking at his father then disdainfully looking at the chalky tasting horror.
"Of course you have to! The Valentine won't come true if you don't!" The King said looking aghast at his son.
"You mean if I don't eat this candy Bulma won't love me anymore like it says in the card?" Vegeta said looking shocked.
"That's right! It's human tradition!" King Vegeta stated
Vegeta upon hearing this swallowed the candy whole trying to avoid the taste
"Well?" Vegeta said looking green (the taste got to him after all)
"Well what?" the king replied
"Did it work?" Vegeta said sternly
"Did what work?" King Vegeta said confused.
"You said if I ate the Damn Candy the Valentine would come true! SO! DID IT!?" Vegeta screamed
"I don't know" King Vegeta shrugged
"WHADDYAH MEAN YOU DON'T KNOW!?" Vegeta yelled
"Actually I was just using that to see if you'd actually eat the candy and to find out what Bulma wrote to you." King Vegeta smirked
Vegeta just stood there stunned by what he just heard. By freaking out the way he did he just gave away a major part of his feelings for the Blue Haired Woman.
"So son what were you thinking of giving her for Valentine's Day?" The King asked sincerely
"You know I have a faint idea but I'd like to get some details from her father first." With that said Vegeta walked off in search for some flowers for Bulma and to wake her father up and demand gift ideas for his bride.
King Vegeta watched as he walked off.
' My boy is finally growing up. His mother would be so proud if she had been here to see this.' King Vegeta thought as his son disappeared around the next corner.
And soon the night came to an end with a bright and beautiful Valentine's Day morning…
