Chapter 1: Bulla's First Day

Author's Note:

Hey y'all, just wanted to give a quick intro here. I'm new to , and I'm a huge fan of Bulla x Goten. ^^ I'm on holiday right now, so hopefully I can finish this story sooner versus later.

Also, this story takes place in a Dragonball AU, where Trunks, Bulla, and Goten have a smaller age gap, see below for revised ages. I'll be introducing more characters, but I haven't decided on their ages yet.

Lastly, I've made this according the Japanese school system where high school is 3 years instead of 4, in Japan the schooling is referred to as (grade 1 = first year, grade 2= second year, etc…)

All in all, I really do hope you enjoy this first chapter, and as always I'm always open to feedback.

Bulla- 14

Goten- 15 - turning 16 soon

Trunks - 16 -turning 17 soon


Today was Bulla's first day at Orange School High, and despite being an excellent academic and outstandingly bright individual, her parents forced her to enroll into high school to "mingle with other folks her age in society."

Naturally, Bulla was like her mother, an excellent speaker, articulate, charming, and beautiful. She sported strait long blue hair that ran past her shoulder blades and blunt bangs. She was petite, but well-endowed for a girl her age, and her fashion sense was impeccable. Sadly, she was just like Bulma, so she also inherited her mother's knack for bad boys and obsession in finding the perfect boyfriend.

With Bulla's intelligence, the dean of Orange Star High admitted her a year early, so she would be 1 year ahead of her peers. Not that it really mattered, as Bulla was home schooled her whole life before today.

She stood by her locked in a daze, until she spotted a familiar figure emerging from the broom closet with a female companion clinging onto his arm. It was none other than her brother, Trunks, and a girl who Bulla had no recollection of. The couple immediately parted ways and the purple hair boy ran up to his sister.

Trunks was in his senior year, and he was living the dream. He recently moved out of their family home and started living like an adult in a luxury condo a few blocks from school, he was also given a proper salary now that he was working at Capsule Corp.

"Hey Bulla! First, don't tell Goten I'm here, he's been trying to get me to play wingman all summer." Trunks said with his hands clasped above his head. "Look, he's great and all, but I can't really help him get that girl when I'm sleeping with her, right?!"

"Ugh Onii-chan, you're such a BIG PIG! Ick, that's the first thing you say to me on my FIRST day of real school? Some, role model…." Bulla scoffed. She slammed her locker as she walked away from her brother. She began to examine her schedule and school map, she'd rather be early to her first class that deal with her brother and Goten-kun in the morning.

Unfortunately, her peace was short lived as a black haired boy spotted her. He rushed up and stopped right in front of her to make sure he had her full attention before engaging her in conversation.

"Ahh! Bulla-chan, what are you doing here?!" His face looked surprised but happy. "Trunks-kun didn't tell me you'd be starting school here so soon."

"Oh yeah, I think it slipped his mind, you know Onii-chan…" she said as she started to laugh nervously… 'actually, it's probably because he's trying to minimize convo with you, idiot'. But Bulla wouldn't rat out her brother's true intentions no matter how annoyed she felt towards him.

"Understandable, but Bulla-chan where's your first class, I'll walk you. I know you've never been to school, let alone our high school. It can get a little confusing, and since you're a first year, you're "pray". Plus, you're real pretty, so no doubt the boys will go crazy…" Goten began.

'He's such a smooth talker now… it's kind of annoying.' Bulla thought. "I'm fine Goten-kun, plus…", her voice got quite, "now that I'm in high school I want to experience, love".

Goten's eyes widened for a split second, but he quickly put one hand behind his head and let out a laugh. "Oh right, Bulla-chan you're already at that age right? Hmm… I can try introduce you to someone on the baseball team. Yamcha-san is the coach and he runs us to the ground, but most of the guys are always talking about finding a girlfriend and I'm sure they will treasure you!"

"Ok! And we're here," Bulla chirped. Even though she rejected his offer they ended up walking to her first class together. She waved as she began to enter the classroom, she quickly turned and said, "thanks Goten-kun, for walking me to class, and I'm counting on you."

"Of course, anything for you Hime-sama", he added teasingly. He lightly chuckled and headed towards his own first period. With Bulla around he would definitely be more amused this school year. Now he had to find Trunks and tell him about the promise.

-xxxxxx-

First period came and went, and before Bulla knew it, lunch period was upon her. She had warmed up to a couple girls in class but nothing too personal, luckily the most popular girl Shea, had invited Bulla to eat in the courtyard with her.

Shea was the typical gyaru type, long curly blonde hair, tanned skin, long nails, and false lashes that reached her brow bones each time she blinked. Her uniform was altered so that her skirt sat a couple centimeters below her bum, and her white collar shirt was tied to crop it.

"So Bulla, spill the beans! You had Son-senpai walk you to class this morning, what was that about?", Shea said between the meal.

"Ohhh… haha, yeah you saw that?", Bulla started nervously.

"Uhm we'd be blind if we didn't. He's the main staple of Orange Star High after Ouji-sama, of course." Shea's cheeks began to turn pink, "There's a rumor that if you date Ouji-sama, you get a taste of Son-senpai too… it's dirty, but all of the upper classmen talk about it. Also, those two go through girls faster than toilet paper in a public bathroom stall."

"Oh, is that so…" Bulla immediately looked up awkwardly, she didn't want to make eye contact and couldn't let Shea that she was talking about Bulla's brother and childhood friend. It was just not a good position to be in, also due to her mother's influence, Trunks's last name was Ouji, while Bulla's was Vegeta. There was no way Shea knew Bulla and Trunks were siblings, and she would not let that leak out now, on the first day of school.

"Hmm, yeah so I'd watch out if I were you Bulla, unless you want to be the new flavor of the day. Also the food chain starts with the school idols, fan clubs, then everyone else." Shea warned.

Bulla nodded, after that, she and Shea partook in a generally boring convo about luxury brands and makeup. The lunch bell couldn't ring fast enough, and thankfully the two girls parted ways for the rest of the day.

Needless to say, Bulla's first day at Orange Star High was over and done with, but not soon enough. No boys talked to her, and other than that awkward lunch with Shea, she barely made any contact with the other girls. She wasn't keen on coming back tomorrow, and she was hoping Goten would quickly introduce her to his fellow club members.


Japanese words used:

Onii-chan = older brother (not sure if Bulla calls Trunks this, but Goten calls Gohan this. It's a more enduring way to say Onii-san).

Hime-sama = princess

Gyaru = GAL style (you can look this up on google to get a better understanding of how it looks)
