Chapter 21 Confrontations

After the whole argument between Juu, Goku and Vegeta, Bulma quickly got to class. She didn't want to be around to listen to any excuses Vegeta and Goku were going to give. She didn't care for what either of them had to say, she wanted to move on from this and just forget it. Bulma wanted to learn from her mistake and move on with her life. She wasn't going to dwell on this, what was the point?

Walking into her physics class she was glad not to see Vegeta or Goku in the classroom yet. She took her regular seat in the back pulling her book out to review. She started to second guess thinking maybe tomorrow would be easier to come in on since she would have Sociology for her first class, she would have Chichi with her. Bulma was going to be strong and handle this. Just then she saw Goku and Vegeta walk in, she knew now she had put on her best façade and be tough. Of course Vegeta and Goku took their normal spot at the table beside her. Vegeta had not once looked in Bulma's direction. Goku on the other hand had decided to wave to her. She didn't respond, turning her attention to the front of the room just as the teacher walked in.

"Alright class, shall we get started? Today we are going to turn in the assignment and then review for the test this Thursday?" Bulma started to drown the teacher out starting at the window next to her. Her mind began to wonder back to the last 6 months. How things in her life got so jacked up. She started school wanting to avoid everything and just finish her school. Bulma had made 2 friends within a week then later had a boyfriend. A boyfriend that wasn't even a real relationship. And to think that she was going to give him the cherish belonging of her. She was so thankful she had waited, probably in a week she would have. Seeing that Goku and Chichi's relationship was going so good, she thought maybe things would be great for them. In the end everything was a lie, a joke, an evil prank. The thoughts and heartache came rushing back to Bulma starting to feel the twisting pain again. She wrapped her arm around herself trying to compose herself. She looked out of the corner of her eye to see Vegeta looking over in her direction. 'Ugh I really don't need him staring at me. This is not helping the pain at all.' Turning her attention back to the teacher blabbing on about the test. She rested her head on her hand wishing for the day to go faster. Then she noticed a note being tossed on her desk. She figured it was from Vegeta or Goku until she read what the note said.

So sorry that your perfect life seemed to just fall apart in just mere minutes. But I just want you to learn from this lesson and now I hope you know your place here at high school. If you ever get out of place again I will put you in your place again.

Bulma looked up to see Keisha starting straight at her glaring. Bulma wasn't going to respond to the note. By responding to her was only going to make the situation only worse. She rolled her eyes at her, facing back to the front of the classroom. She continued to pray that the day would go faster.

Lunch time had came for the friends to meet up and to be able to talk. Bulma wasn't able to tell her friends about what happened in Physics class. She was kind of hoping to ignore the situation and continue on her day but decided against it and told her friends.

"Wait till I see that bitch!" Juu's face started to turn red for the 2nd time in the day.

"Juu, don't. Please I just want to move on and show that it is not bothering me. By doing that, then that shows I am being the better person about this."

"Fine, I just don't understand why you two don't stand up for yourselves. I mean to let people talk to you and use you the way they do."

"But at the same time, Juu it showing I am lowering myself to their level and showing that it is bothering me." Bulma tried to explain the best way she could.

Of course Bulma and Chichi was not that lucky to get through the day without a confrontation with Keisha, Marron or Ashley. "So Bulma. Chichi." Ashley started first. "The first time I slept with Goku the night of the party after the guys won the football game. Goku was so amazing in bed, of course Chichi wasn't able to take care of his needs in bed. Then this past weekend fucking Vegeta was just as amazing. Too bad your relationship were just a joke." Ashley, Keisha and Marron all started to laugh. Then Marron piped in, "Or even the night at the lake house when Vegeta came to me because Bulma is such a prude and shot him down. Bulma, you could have had a good lay but instead shot him down." The 3 girls continued to laugh. Bulma and Chichi's face started to turn red with embarrassment. Juu was no longer able to hold her anger in for her friends. Krillin tried so hard to calm her down but Juu blew. "You know you stupid fucking whores, if you want to be a slut and sleep with whoever the fuck you want then go for it. But no one likes a whore in the end. When guys are ready to settle down, they don't settle down with girl like you who are whores. They settle down with a great girls like Bulma and Chichi. So go a head and be proud of being the school's whores because that is all you will ever be you fucking bitches."

The 3 girls were shocked. None of them really knew what to say. So Keisha said the first thing that came her mind, "Whatever Juu. You're just jealous. We don't care what you have to say." Then the 3 girls walked off to sit at their table. Juu just rolled her eyes at them. Her jealous?! Why the hell would she be jealous of them of all people.

"Bulma, Chichi. I am sorry I said that to them and going off on them, I know you guys wanted me to be quiet, but I couldn't keep it in anymore. They are just a bunch of stupid whores." Juu wished she had bit her tongue just a little longer.

"Its ok, Juu." Chichi responded. "I know it was hard to bite your tongue. I know B and I should stand up for ourselves. We are going to try from now on. I am sick of Keisha and Marron thinking they are all this and that when they are not." Bulma nodding, agreeing.

Goku and Vegeta had walked in just in time to hear Ashley run her mouth. Goku was so upset that Ashley told Chichi they had slept together at the beginning of the relationship. He knew trying to get back with Chichi was going to be a hard challenge but he knew he could do it. Once he set his mind to something he never gave up. Vegeta was also a upset with the wenches for running their mouths. He knew he was going to need to say something to them. He walked over to where they were sitting.

"What the hell is wrong with you women? You need to learn to keep your mouths shut." Vegeta scolded them drawing attention to the them.

"Oh Vegeta get the hell over it. What the hell does it matter what we say to them? Its not like you care." Keisha snapped back at Vegeta. Marron and Ashley agreeing.

"Well we don't want our business what we did IN THE PAST spread around everywhere. So shut the fuck up!" Goku hollered back.

Bulma and Chichi were surprised at the guys going off on the girls. Bulma had to agree with one thing, why the hell did they care. The guys played a joke on them so that showed they obviously didn't care. Bulma watched as Vegeta and Goku occupied a table far away from the girls. She turned her attention back to Juu, but then saw a guy walking to their table. She didn't recognize him but he seemed like he had something on his mind. He was a taller guy. He had longer blonde hair that was just below his ear, just above his eyes in the front. He a had a strong jaw line with just the right amount of scruffiness. He was very fit wearing a black t shirt and with a pair of worn jeans. He took a seat next to Chichi grabbing her attention.

"Hey, Chi. Sorry to hear what happened."

"Oh thanks, Dean. I am learning from my mistakes and moving on from it." Chichi assured him.

"Chichi, I wish you would reconsider what we talked about last year."

About this time last year Dean had talked to Chichi about maybe the two of them getting together. He had confessed that he had been attracted to her since she was friends with Keisha and Marron. She had always overlooked him because she had her eyes on Goku for the longest time. He was going to wait till she figured that Goku was never going to be the gentleman he was so long ago. Dean felt bad after he saw what happened at the party, he wanted to kick Goku's ass for what he did to her.

Chichi smiled at Dean. She didn't really know how to respond to that. She had thought about giving Dean a chance. She wouldn't lie she was attracted to him, she always was, but she had her eyes on Goku. She wanted to wait, she knew he would come around and be the Goku she knew and fell for. But after this weekend she knew it wasn't going to happen. She needed to learn to move on and Dean would probably be the best option. "I know, Dean. You know what. I need to move on. Why don't we go out tonight if your not busy."

Dean smiled, happy that Chichi would finally give him a shot. "Yea I can do that. That will be great, Chi. I will pick you up at 6pm, alright?"

Chichi smiled at Dean confirming that it would work for her. She noticed the confused looked on Bulma's face. She introduced Bulma and Dean, letting Bulma know she would fill her in on the details later. It might have seemed like Chichi was moving fast, but she wanted to move on from Goku and get him out of her mind. She was tired of Goku constantly on her mind and all she thought about. It was getting unhealthy for her, she had lost 5 pounds since the horrible nightmare she had endured.

The bell had rang for lunchtime to be over and the start of 3rd period. Bulma and Krillin walked together to trig. She was glad she had Krillin in her class. "So Krillin how was your weekend with Juu?"

"It was good. It was something that we needed, some alone time. It was so hard in the past when we were hiding our relationship. I am sorry, Juu and I should have went with you guys this weekend."

Bulma raised her hand, shaking her head. "No its ok, Krillin. It would have still happened either way. Something we learn from and move on from." They walked into class together, taking their seats towards the front. They continued their conversation till they saw Vegeta and Keisha walk in. It seemed like the two were in a heated argument. Probably continuing their argument from lunch period. Shortly later the teacher walked in to start the class.

The rest of the day to Bulma's luck went fast. She needed to get this day over and head home. Chichi had explained the story about Dean and what happened last year. She was happy for Chichi to move on from Goku with a guy that truly does like and care about her. She had hoped she would find someone like that for herself, but she still needed time. She didn't know how Chichi was able to quickly move on from this whole ordeal. But she knew it helped that she knew Dean for awhile and knew he was true to his feeling unlike Vegeta and Goku.

That night Chichi had gotten ready for her date. Her father was so happy that she was moving on and her being so happy, it seemed to him. He wanted his daughter happy. He watched her get ready for the date. He had heard about Dean last year. He had wished Chichi had given him a chance then, then maybe Chichi would have never had to go through this heart break she is dealing with right now. "Chichi dear. I hope you have a goodnight tonight. If you need anything please call me."

"Ok dad. Thanks." Then she heard the doorbell ring. "Oh he is here." She ran to the door to answer it to see Dean standing before her. Chichi had prayed that she would be able to enjoy herself tonight and to let her mind not once wonder to Goku. "Ok Dad I am going."

"Alright Chi, you have a good time." She heard her father holler after her.

Dean held his arm out for Chichi to link arms with him. She looked to see that Dean had rented a limo for the night. Bring her hand to her mouth in shock. "Oh, Dean. You didn't need to get a limo."

"Oh I know but I wanted to make this a night that you will never forget." Dean grinned his trademark smile.

Chichi beamed up at Dean. He opened the door for her to slide into the seat. On the ride there Dean told Chichi what had been going on with him for the past year. She hadn't really talked to him much since the Keisha and Marron kicking her out of the group. To him it seemed Chichi had locked herself away from everyone not letting anyone in. He would try to talk to her but she would just say very few words to him. He was glad that she is now giving him a chance.

The couple arrived at a very elegant restaurant. In advance Dean had to put in a reservation for Chichi and himself. He was very lucky that they had an opening for tonight. He wanted to make this as fun and enjoyable for Chichi. He wanted to help her get through her heartache and to move on. Dean wanted to piece her broken heart back together.

Chichi and Dean walked into the restaurant, then being seated by the waiter. "Dean I wanted to thank you again for this. I know it will take time for me and I hope you can be patient with me getting over him. I cant believe I was so stupid to believe he would change."

Dean quickly jumped in responding, "Chichi you are not stupid. He played a mean evil trick on you, how was you suppose to know?"

"I know, Dean. Its just that if I listened to Juu and take my time and then I am sure Goku would have tired of trying and gave up. Well its just like I keep telling myself, it is a lesson that I need to learn from and move on." Chichi said trying to hold her head high.

"I guess everyone has to learn heartache and try and move on from it. But enough about this sad stuff. Lets order some good food."

The waiter came over to take their order. After getting the food order, he went to put it in to the cook. Chichi and Dean had made conversation about school and friends. Chichi was actually enjoying her time and her mind never went to Goku that night. She was so thankful, starting to think that Dean was going to be the right choice for her at this point in time, maybe forever. But that was thinking to far in the future and that was the last thing she wanted to do at this time.

After dinner Dean had taken Chichi home since she still had a lot of homework that still needed to be done. "Dean I wanted to thank you for the great time I had tonight. It really helped a lot."

"No problem, Chichi. We should do it again some time."

Chichi nodded liking the idea. She said her goodbye, heading inside her home. She was a little nervous. She didn't want to get heartbroken again, but she didn't think Dean would do that to her. On the other hand it could be interesting to see how Goku will take to this, her dating someone already. She wanted to prove to him that she moved on. And if his feeling were real then he would suffer just like she did. She was done with Goku and moving on.
