WHERE ARE YOU???
CHAPTER 4
Disclaimer: If you don't already know I don't own them, go look at the Prologue.
A knock on the door woke Bulma and Vegeta. "Good morning Vegeta" a voice said. Vegeta grumbled something that sounded like 'stupid pretty boy' and opened the door. Zarbon came walking in. "I'm really sorry for waking you so early" he said happily, "but I heard that you have just returned from your last assignment, and so has Potat. So I thought we might as well invite Cabbago and make it a little reunion."
"My, my Zarbon," Vegeta said smiling fakely, "You sure surprise me. Why do you seek monkey companionship all of the sudden?" Zarbon smiled, "Oh well, you can never start too late with friendships." Vegeta snorted. "Yeah right, Zarbon don't make me laugh, you have never ever, and never will hang out with Saiyans unless there is something in it for you." "Okay Vegeta, I'll make fair game. I saw you got this new servant, and I would like to try her out. Besides of that I'd like to learn some more fighting techniques, including that attack you know with all the tiny needle ki's. You must've picked it up from Lord Freeza. Wait, let me continue. Since I know you, I know that you never go in for something unless there is something in it for you too, so I'll make ya a deal. I get to hang out with you guys and you, in return, will get to order around in my name. That is for as long as our 'companionship' lasts." Of course I will never tell them that Lord Freeza ordered me to keep an eye on the monkeys. Vegeta desperately tried to think of what Zarbon was up to, but since he couldn't think of anything, and the offer was really too appealing to turn down, he agreed. "Okay pretty boy. I don't know what you're up to, so I agree with your terms… for now." Zarbon inwardly sighed with relief. His eyes then fell on Bulma. She was crawling as far away form him as possible. He frowned. Why would she be so afraid of me? Did Vegeta tell her weird things about me? She should be all over me by now!
Bulma tried her best to act scared, instead of drooling all over Zarbon. Man! If Vegeta hadn't been just a tiny bit more handsome she would've hung around Zarbon's neck by now. But then again, Zarbon was a ruthless killer, and Vegeta at least had a heart, well, at least since she met him. Yes, she preferred Vegeta, her dark, mysterious prince. But then again…. She snapped herself out of it and just did what Vegeta wanted her to do. She acted like she was really scared of Zarbon. Hey Vegeta! Should I cower for you too? I mean, just in front of him? she asked Of course woman, I am supposed to be your master you know. So you should be really scared of me. Vegeta telepathically replied. Okay, I'm all yours, you dark, scary Saiyan prince… Zarbon wondered why Vegeta smirked all of the sudden. He looked back at Bulma and noticed that she was really scared of Vegeta too. But since he and Vegeta both stood at another side of the bed, Bulma just crawled to the middle and hid under the covers with only her eyes coming out, so she could see if they did anything threatening.
As a matter of fact Vegeta did just that Watch out woman, I'm gonna play hotshot! he said and immediately after pulled the bed sheets hard, which caused Bulma to drop off the bed with the sheets wrapped around her. She landed neatly at Vegeta's feet. "Woman, get up right now, take a shower, and start filling the bath for me. I will join in a minute." Bulma looked up at Vegeta with fright on her face, but inwardly tried hard not to laugh. Vegeta had his I'm-so-cool'-look on his face, and as she stood up and looked at Zarbon, she could read the eager look on his face. But she kept the sheets tightly wrapped around herself and walked to the bathroom. But when she was half the way she felt she couldn't hold her laughter any longer and ran towards the bathroom. Once inside she burst out laughing. Zarbon heard the muffled sound and looked at Vegeta strangely, waiting for an explanation. "She's probably crying with fright for what I might do to her." Vegeta said looking very smug. Zarbon just shrugged and said to Vegeta: "Will tonight be okay? I'll contact Cabbago and Potat." "Yeah, okay, why not. Just come by somewhere after eight." He said. "Right. Have fun with your bath." Zarbon answered and walked out. Vegeta walked to the bathroom, and found Bulma practically rolling on the floor with laughter. "Oh Vegeta, your looks were just priceless. You looked at Zarbon with such a hotshot look, and Zarbon looked so eager at me. I could almost hear him think 'I hope she drops the bed sheets, please let her drop the bed sheets'. It was great! I hope I didn't make a fool out of you." Vegeta walked over to her, "You didn't, but you came very close to doing that, so I will make you pay." Bulma glanced up, dropped the sheet and stepped into the large bubble bath. "Gladly". Vegeta too undressed and stepped in and he said: "For your foolish behavior I shall punish you by hugging you to death." He grabbed Bulma in a tight embrace as he kissed her once again.
***
At seven thirty Vegeta and Bulma had finished dinner. "Oh, by the way Vegeta, how late exactly did you invite Zarbon and your Saiyan friends over?"
"Oh, they should be here in about half an hour." Vegeta said indifferently. "WHAT! HALF AN HOUR! How could you Vegeta! Now I'll never get dressed in time. You moron!"
"Kami! Bulma, calm down! Why should dressing take you so long? I change clothes in three minutes."
"Yeah, duh, you're a man. Of course you don't need much time. But I need to take a shower, pick a dress, do my hair, put on make-up… I'll never make it in time!"
"You silly woman! Of course you will. Taking a shower is 5 minutes…"
"Make that 10."
"… ten minutes, picking a dress is thirty seconds…"
"Make that one hour."
"One hour??? All you have to do is open the door, and get a dress out of the closet, and close the door again."
"Yeah, but I have to pick the perfect one. That will take me an hour at the least!"
"Don't worry, I'll pick one. Then do your hair 10 minutes, put on make-up 5 minutes. There. All done." Vegeta said triumphantly. Bulma shook her head. "Dream on."
"Let's pick your silly outfit first." How hard can that be? "Okay." Bulma said, and threw one of her clothes capsules to the floor. When the smoke vanished, there stood four HUGE wardrobes. "Kami! How many clothes do you have??" Vegeta all but screamed. "Oh, just three more capsules." Bulma said casually. "Well, you're going to have to pick from these four wardrobes. You're not opening any more of those capsule-thingys." Vegeta ordered. "But Vegeta!" Bulma whined. "No! You will listen to me this time. You have to pick from these. And that's FINAL!" Vegeta yelled. "FINE!!!" Bulma yelled back. "But don't complain if I look like an idiot tonight!" Vegeta said nothing, but opened the first closet. "Let's see. You'll need a dress and a bathing suit for underneath, just in case. This is a fine bathing suit." Vegeta said, while lifting a cute blue, two-pieced bikini. "And….here…..no…..this one…..no….. Do you have any really short dresses?" Vegeta asked. "Umm, yes, I think so." Bulma answered, while opening another closet and searching through it. She threw about 20 short dresses on the floor. Vegeta walked over to them and began searching through them. He lifted a low-cut, red dress out of it and looked at it approvingly. "Try this one on, woman." He said, while handing Bulma the dress. "That one? Don't you think it's a little revealing? I only wore it once, on a party on CC, and I think it's a little too revealing." Bulma said, looking at the dress. "It's supposed to be revealing, you know! You are playing servant and bathing girl here! Just try it on." Bulma smiled "What's the magic word?" Vegeta grumbled. "…Please." Bulma laughed. "That sounded so unwilling! But okay, I'll wear it." She swung the dress and bikini over her shoulder and walked to the shower. "See ya in 20 minutes, Veggie!" she yelled just before she slammed the door closed. "DON'T CALL ME VEGGIE!!!" Vegeta roared. "Or I will call you… um… I'll call you…. slave! Yeah, that's it!" Bulma giggled. "Oh Veggie, you're so cute when you're all mad like that!" and started the shower.
20 minutes later Bulma emerged from the bathroom. "Vegeta? What do you think?" She asked posing before him. Vegeta's jaw almost hit the ground. "Well, I guess that's enough of an answer to me!" Bulma said happily. She looked gorgeous. The dress hugged her figure nicely and her long, blue hair hung loosely on her back. She wore almost no make-up, just some lipstick, which matched her dress. The combination of the deep red color of her dress and lips and the blue color of her hair and eyes was perfect. "Well," Vegeta said, regaining his posture. "It will have to do for now." Bulma almost got mad, until she realized he was just trying to upset her. "Ah, ah, ah!" she smiled, "I know you think it's far more than that. You think I'm gorgeous. And if you don't admit it, I think I'll seduce Zarbon tonight. He seems to have a thing for me you know." Vegeta gasped for breath. "You wouldn't!" He said. "I think I would." Bulma said. "Let's play pretend. You pretend to be Zarbon, I pretend to be me." After she said this Bulma walked over to Vegeta, hips swaying. "Hello Zarbon." She said seductively. "Care for a bath?" Vegeta gasped again. "You wouldn't dare to." He said. "Oh yes," Bulma said. "And this is not even half of it." Vegeta realized he was defeated. He swallowed "Alright…. Bulma… you look gorgeous." Bulma jumped in his arms while saying: "I knew you could do it, my sweet, sweet prince. And you know what's the funniest? You were right. I would never seduce Zarbon when I could have you." Vegeta kissed her and put her down. "Call for some drinks. Our 'guests' should be arriving any minute." Bulma nodded and walked off.
Vegeta sat down to wait for Zarbon, Potas and Cabbago to arrive. The moment Bulma walked back in there was a short knock on the door. Now, woman I need you to play your loyal servant role. You should be gorgeous and act like that. I know you know how to do that perfectly. Also be scared of Zarbon and me, but not too much of Potat and Cabbago. They are nowhere near my league, and therefor can do nothing to you. You must do everything I say instantly, so they will 'know' that you are 'scared' of me. Oh, and do not get too much offended by my fake sexistic behavior. You know I don't mean it. Bulma smiled and nodded. Vegeta walked over to the door and opened it. Outside were Zarbon, Potas and Cabbago. "Why hello, Vegeta." Zarbon said, a little too friendly. Vegeta already regretted that he'd agreed with Zarbons companionship, but his ordering offer really was good. "Good evening" he said while he let them in. They walked in and the three of them were staring at Bulma for a second. Zarbon was the first to regain posture. He grabbed Bulma's hand and kissed it. "I know it isn't common to kiss the hands of mere servants, but you are the most beautiful servant ever, so I think it is allowed, beauty." He said. Bulma smiled at him sweetly, but quickly pulled away when Vegeta cast her a glance. She then looked at Potas and Cabbago.
They were definitely both Saiyans, and therefor had black, spiky hair. The left one had long hair, and looked pretty much like Radditzu in the face. Good observation, woman, Cabbago is Radditzu's nephew, I believe she mentally heard Vegeta say. His hair was only a little shorter, and his figure was a little smaller, with huge tight muscles. The right one had less hair, and it was short cut, and stood up right. He was taller. About the same height of Goku. His eyes looked rather friendly. For a Saiyan that is. They had at first just stared at her, but now took the typical pose all Saiyans took when they tried to look like a big bad boy. Arms crossed and an arrogant look on both their faces. She almost laughed at the splitting image of Vegeta's favorite pose.
But she remembered what to do, and walked towards them. "I am so honored to meet you both" she said with a sexy voice. Wow Bulma, keep up the voice! Vegeta said. "Come, let me lead you to the living room." She grabbed both Saiyans by the arm and led them to the living room. Vegeta and Zarbon followed. They all sat down save Bulma. She walked out to get the drinks. "My prince, may I complement you with your new slave? She is really outstanding." Cabbago said. "Yes," Zarbon agreed, "she really is. How did you find her?"
"Well, the funny thing is that she just ran into my arms. I was busy killing all the pathetic earth warriors, when she came running up the battlefield, screaming to me to stop killing them. Apparently one of them, an ugly bald midget, was her mate. So I took her with me, at first just to torture the bald guy, but later I discovered she was a good servant too. So I kept her. I must say she does listen and obey perfectly." Vegeta finished. At this point Bulma came back in and poured wine into four glasses. She gracefully handed them to all the men, and walked back to sit in a corner of the room, but Vegeta called her back. "No, my sweet little girl, come here, sit on my lap." he said smirking. Bulma shivered. It just sounded so real! It wasn't that hard to act scared of Vegeta right now. So she put a really scared little girl's face on, and walked shyly towards Vegeta. When she came in arms reach, Vegeta pulled her onto his lap, and kissed her ear. She shivered again. Vegeta offered her a sip of his wine, and she took one. It made her a little warmer. "You, my prince are lucky to have such an obedient servant." Potas said. "I remember I once had a girl, and she was so scared of me, that when I ordered something, she couldn't move. She was just paralyzed with fear." All men roared with laughter. "Ah," Vegeta said, "You just don't know how to deal with women. You should make them feel comfortable, just like I do." He nibbled Bulma's ear, and stroked her tummy. Bulma just sat stiff, and didn't respond. "Well Vegeta," Zarbon commented, "she doesn't look all that relaxed right now. Just plain scared." They laughed again. "Oh, but that doesn't make her obedience any less, does it my dear?" Vegeta said in a really scary sweet tone of voice, while kissing Bulma's head. "No My Lord." Bulma said softly with a scared voice. Kami! In the way Vegeta is acting right now, I can hardly believe Freeza is that scary!
The men just sat for about three hours talking and drinking. Bulma repeatedly stood up to refill the glasses, and all the men were quite drunk now. When Bulma had filled the glasses once more, and put down the bottle, Zarbon all of the sudden pulled her onto his lap. "How about you and me find a room, sweetie?" He drunkenly whispered into Bulma's ear. Cabbago and Potas just kept on talking like nothing was happening, but Vegeta immediately was sober again. "I think it is time for us all to go to bed now." he said calmly, while standing up. He lifted Bulma from the drunken Zarbons lap, and put her down next to himself. Both the Saiyans stood up, for they would never go against any of their Prince's orders, and walked out the door, after thanking Vegeta for the visit. It took Zarbon a little longer to leave and Bulma was relieved to see him go. But just before he went, he put his head around the door. "Hey Vegeta! Let me borrow her sometime soon, okay?" he said. "Of course, why wouldn't I?" Vegeta answered, "I don't want to be selfish or something." Zarbon nodded and left.
"My god Vegeta!" Bulma said. "So this is what is considered normal among you guys? Getting drunk and making dirty jokes? How childish." She really was a little upset. "And why did you have to act so weird? You really scared me, with the evil voices, and the kissing and nibbling. Kami! You scared the shit out of me!" Vegeta scooped her up in his arms. "Poor, poor Bulma, I'm really sorry. But, don't you like it when I kiss and nibble you?" he said as he kissed her ear. "Yes, of course I do, but for a moment I forgot I wasn't really your servant. You know, you really are about six years older and a million times stronger than I am. It's not like I can do anything to defend myself. And if you wouldn't act so scary…" she said, already a little calmed down. "I'm sorry for being such a good actor" he said in a mocking tone of voice, "but," he continued lovingly "you musn't forget that you're my mate. I would die before I let anything bad happen to you." Bulma thought of the mark on her neck. Vegeta had marked her the night they made the baby she was carrying now. It was the best scar ever. "Yes, you are right. But then, what about the promise you made to Zarbon just a minute ago, that you would let him 'borrow' me?" Vegeta kissed her again. "That was just to get rid of him. He was really drunk and will have forgotten all about it tomorrow morning." He said reassuringly. "But now, please let me carry you to bed, you're getting heavy." Bulma slapped him "Vegeta!! How dare you!" she yelled. But then added giggling "Maybe I should give the poison thingy a second thought." Vegeta just took her to their bedroom, undressed her and put her in bed. They fell asleep smiling in each other's arms.
***
Krillin and Gohan still were in their ship, flying towards the base where Freeza was staying recently. The number, 34'72 was griffed into Krillins mind. 34'72, that was where Freeza was, so that was where Vegeta was, with hís Bulma. They were only on the way for two days, and he already was bored. And he still had to wait for little less than two more weeks. And that was if everything went right. Freeza could always decide to go somewhere else, and make the quest even longer. Luckily they now had the old scouter to tell them where Freeza went. Well, what more was there to do than wait? He tried to reach Bulma telepathically. Bulma….sweetheart? Can you hear me? Oh darned! Our telepathic bond has been disturbed ever since I was brought back to life. At that moment Bulma had already been on that ship with that bastard Saiyan for a week! I bet it's his fault! Just as he was the cause that Bulma couldn't be brought back to earth! What do I do now? There was only one, stupid, boring thing to do: Wait. He just had to wait.
***
The next morning was rather peaceful for Vegeta and Bulma. They had breakfast, and after that Vegeta hovered above the bed, meditating, while Bulma stole one of his spare scouters, and started taking it apart to see how it worked. They had lunch around noon, and then the trouble began. Four beautiful alien women stood outside the door when Bulma answered it. "Hello, we are here to see if Prince Vegeta would like any of our bathing services. He has always refused, but Lord Zarbon told us to give it another try, so here we are." One of them said in a sweet voice. Kami! Their voices are just dripping with… with…. Oh I dunno! Their just acting annoyingly sweet! Bulma was about to say 'no' and throw the door in their dumb, faking nice faces, when Vegeta walked in. Don't do that woman, remember the play? I have to. You and I made a deal, remember? Vegeta then turned to the women. "You women guessed right. I'm in the mood for a little bath right now." He said to the group off giggling bathing girls. "Come in, and start the bath. I'll be there in a second." The women walked in and went to the huge bathroom. "At least let them keep on bathing suits or something, Vegeta." Bulma begged when they were inside. "Hey Bulma, I don't like it either, but I have to. If you really insist, I'll tell them to keep on bathing suits. But I will have to strip. Imagine, our whole plan could be ruined just because some stupid bathing girls told the whole base that I take baths in my swimming trunks." Vegeta said. He hugged Bulma I love you and walked in the bathroom. Bulma had to restrain herself from walking in for almost half an hour. Every time she heard Vegeta's voice, deep and raspy, and then the women's giggling, she wanted to walk in and throw those annoying, brainless girls out. But she couldn't. So she just sat, and waited and tried to keep on working on the scouter. Just ignore them. You can do it. Stay seated. Don't go in there. Keep calm. she told herself. It worked a little. But then she picked up a thought from Vegeta, and decided to have a nice little mental argument when then there was another knock on the door. Now who could that be? Bulma asked herself. She walked to the door to answer it.
Vegeta had to admit to himself, that he was enjoying the bath. The girls were very skilled. They were massaging him, and washing him and he liked it. The only thing was that they were acting really erotic, and Vegeta didn't like that. Stupid whores he thought to himself. But he still let them go on a little, because he was trying to act normal. Well, normal to the standards of Freeza's bases. So he let them touch him, and kiss him. But never too much. His loyalty still was with Bulma, where it would stay forever. He just couldn't help enjoying it a little. Oh well, Bulma will never find out he thought and leaned back. What will I never find out Vegeta? Bulma's voice asked inside his head. Vegeta snapped up and jumped out of the bath. The girls looked at him and sighed dreamingly when they saw his perfect (naked) body. "BULMA! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to…" he saw the women stare at him. "What's wrong my Prince?" one of them asked. "Did we do anything wrong?". They all looked at him weirdly. Shit! So far for the normal act. Now, let me think of something. "I thought I hit you." He said to one of the girls. "I'm sorry for that." The girl smiled at him. "I didn't feel anything. But… my name is not Bulma." She said. "No of course not," Vegeta said while he regained his almighty position, and stepped back into the bath. "Don't you foolish women know anything? Bulma is an ancient Saiyan…..curse. It means as much as #$%^$#. Now try to remember. Stupid slaves. Well, what are you waiting for. Bathe me!" he grumbled. They quickly resumed their occupations again. Kami woman, you had me in a dangerous position for a while. Don't do that again. Vegeta 'said' to Bulma. Well, I'm sorry, but I really need to restrain myself from coming in there you know! And when I hear you think 'Bulma will never find out', what do you think I would presume you are doing in there? Are you making out with them? NO! Of course not! I will only mate with you! Then, why were you thinking that I would never find out? What will I never find out? That's none of your concern. Of course it is! I am – Hey, there's someone at the door, who could that be? Bulma broke off contact with Vegeta.
Bulma opened the door, and saw a small, green alien looking at her. It looked a little like Pilaf, the elf they had fought a few years ago, but then in green. "Ah! Bulma Briefs, I presume?" It said. "Yes, how may I help you?" Bulma asked. "Well, Lord Zarbon has told me to have you brought to him, because your master agreed that he could borrow you. Oh shit! Bulma thought What do I do now? VEGETA!! She mentally screamed. What is it? Are you okay? There's some creepy alien here, who came here to get me in Zarbon's name because you promised him. And you said he would forget it! I knew it! the alien started pulling her arm "Let me go! I….I have to ask my master first!" she said. Vegeta! Help me! Vegeta tried to stay calm and stepped out of the bath. "Well, that was enough for today." He stated. "You! Give me a bathrobe." He said to one of the girls. She quickly complied. He then walked out of the bathroom and grabbed Bulma from the alien's arms. "Where do you think you're going with my slave?" Vegeta roared. "I'm sorry, prince Vegeta, but Lord Zarbon told me to get her, because she was promised to him." The alien answered, almost shaking with fear. "You will always ask my permission first before taking my servants. Understood? Now, go back to your master, and tell him that she will be there in fifteen minutes. I will personally bring her." He growled. "Y-Yes prince Vegeta." It said, and ran off. Vegeta then put Bulma on the couch and told the bathing girls to go. When they were gone, his intimidating air immediately was gone. "Oh shit Bulma, I'm so sorry. I really thought he would forget about it. But now, it's too late. You will have to continue playing the game." He sighed. "But…. but…. I can't! Who knows what he'll do to me? You have to save me!" she almost cried. "I can't . I'm sorry." Vegeta said softly. "But wait a second! I know! It may be a stupid idea, but I will be able to keep an eye on Zarbon. I will just tell him that I would like to join in! Than we will have a bath together! Just the three of us. Because I don't think that Zarbon has called for any more bathing girls. I bet he wanted to have you all for himself. He isn't allowed to refuse me from joining in, because you are my slave. Isn't it brilliant?" he yelled. "Yeah, please do. I would feel much safer." Bulma said and hugged him. Vegeta turned around and walked to his wardrobe. "Oh, Vegeta? There's one more thing: I have nothing to wear."
"AAARRRGGG!!!"
***
Exactly fifteen minutes later Bulma and Vegeta knocked on Zarbons door. Bulma wore a short black skirt, and a lightblue tank top, which matched her hair, with the same blue bikini underneath that she had worn the previous evening. Vegeta just wore a normal black bodysuit, and some random everyday armor. "Why hello Vegeta, it is so good to see you. I still have to thank you for last night. I really had a good time." Zarbon greeted them cheerfully. "Oh, it's okay. It was my pleasure." Vegeta said voice dripping with sarcasm, which Zarbon failed to notice. "I have decided to join in. I just had a nice bath with the girls you sent me, and I would really like to continue it with you and my little toy." Vegeta went on. Zarbon looked disappointed, but nodded and let them in. "The bathtub has already been filled, but I suggest we have a little drink first. Care for a wine, Vegeta?" he asked. "Oh, I would like that." Vegeta said. Bulma gasped when she looked around. Zarbons quarters were much more luxurious than Vegeta's. The living room, where they were now, had a very high ceiling, and was really big. It also was richly furnished. There were plants, statues, and other ornaments everywhere. It all looked really expensive. It was obvious that Zarbon was Freeza's right hand. He must be really rich. She was interrupted in her thoughts when a servant girl came in. She was very young, maybe only two years younger than Bulma, and she had very little clothes on. She also wore a veil. "Lord Zarbon, if I may ask, why does your servant wear a veil?" Bulma asked. "On my late planet it was normal for women younger than eighteen to wear a veil. That keeps other men from drooling all over them. When they pass the age of eighteen they are available and the veil goes off. I kept that tradition. I also let them wear it because I think it is really mystical, and I like my girls mystical." He said, looking at Bulma with a you-know-what-I-mean look on his face. The girl said nothing and poured the wine into two glasses, then waited. "Vegeta, may I offer your servant some wine too?" Zarbon asked. "Of course. I bet she would love some. Won't you, my dear." Vegeta said. "Yes my prince." Bulma responded softly. "Shaira, pour miss Bulma some wine too!" Zarbon ordered his servant. "Yes Lord Zarbon." The girl said, and filled a third crystal glass. Wow, even the glasses are expensive! Bulma thought. This sure is a guy who likes playing rich! She took her glass and sipped the wine.
After about fifteen minutes, and two glasses of wine, Zarbon thought that it was time for their bath. "What do you think about taking the bath now, Vegeta?" he stood up. "Sure, why not." They all walked to the bathroom, and Bulma was amazed again. The bathroom was huge, and beautiful. Zarbon of course had a normal toilet, bath and shower, but in the next room there was a sort of artificial jungle lake. It was enormous. There were plants everywhere, and above the water hung fog. The floor was made of sand and Bulma even heard birds singing. It was so real, that she was fooled and for a moment thought she was really in the jungle. But the water was too clean and warm to be a lake, and she also noticed that a bit of the lake was bubbling. So he has a bubble bath built in huh?
Zarbon noticed her amazement and smiled. "You like it, Bulma?" he said, almost acting nice. "Yes… It's beautiful." She whispered. "Well then, lets go in." Zarbon smiled, and stood there, as if he was waiting for something. Woman! It is rule that the girls undress and go in the water first! Vegeta said mentally. With you guys watching? No way! she furiously answered. Just do it! Part of the plan remember? he sent back And besides, you get to watch me undress too, in a second! He added teasingly. Okay, I give in, you convinced me she said, and started undressing. Do I get to keep the bathing suit? Yeah, but don't be surprised if Zarbon rids you of that later on she was afraid of that, but there was no choice. She finished undressing and slipped into the warm water. She then turned to Zarbon and Vegeta, and waited for them to join her, with only her head sticking out of the water. Zarbon undressed quickly, and to the bone. He stepped in. Bulma didn't look lower than his chest as he did. After that Vegeta undressed, also totally, and Bulma smirked at him I truly am enjoying the sight, my prince! She told him, mocking in the last part. Vegeta smirked back at her, swam towards her and sat her on his lap. Vegeta, I think I feel something coming… she said, and giggled. Vegeta blushed a little, and was glad that Zarbons total attention was on Bulma. You should give him a massage now Vegeta told her. I'll have a swim. With that he put Bulma behind Zarbon, one leg on each side, and started swimming to the other side of the lake. Bulma started massaging Zarbons back, and she could feel him shudder under her skilled hands. "You are a good girl, Bulma." Zarbon purred. "And a very skilled massage woman too." He added. "Thank you, my lord." Bulma said, and continued her massage. "But, I think I've had enough of the massage, and I'll return the favor." He said after ten minutes, and pulled her in front of him. He undid the top of her bikini, and threw in on the shore. He then started massaging her breasts, and Bulma panicked. Oh no! What do I do? EEP! Vegeta was with her in an instant. "Can I have her now?" he asked Zarbon. "I'd like a massage now too." Zarbon looked unwilling. "Aww Vegeta, I was just beginning to have some fun!" Vegeta just glared at him. "I want my turn too." Zarbon nodded and let Bulma go. "Alright, you can have her now, I'll take a swim. He swam away. When he was so far he couldn't hear them anymore, Bulma collapsed on Vegeta. "Phew! Thank you Vegeta. You were here just in time." She whispered. "I always am in time. I am the almighty…" Bulma shut him up with a kiss. "Hey!" Vegeta said when he could talk again. "If you do that pretty boy will demand for some too. I'm warning you." Bulma quickly looked behind her to see if Zarbon was in sight, but luckily for her, he wasn't. She gave Vegeta a massage too, and that was pretty much how the afternoon went. Zarbon trying to rampage her, Vegeta always interrupting in the (for Zarbon) wrong moment. But besides of that Bulma had a wonderful time. The bath was perfect. By the time they came out, Bulma was all wrinkly, but luckily there was a machine to undo that. She stepped in, and felt some warm air surround her, and when she came out, all her water-wrinkles were gone and she was dry again. She put her clothes back on, and walked to Vegeta. "Well Zarbon, I must say, I really enjoyed the afternoon." Vegeta said. "But I'm afraid we'll have to go now." He grabbed Bulma's arm. "Thanks Vegeta, I enjoyed it too. We should do it again sometime soon!" Zarbon answered happily. "Yeah, we'll see…" Vegeta said, well remembering not to make clear appointments about Bulma with Zarbon. "Did you like it too, dear?" Zarbon asked Bulma. "Yes, my lord. Your quarters are really beautiful." She answered shyly. "Yeah okay, we have to go now. Bye!" Vegeta said, and dashed out of Zarbons rooms as fast as he could, almost dragging Bulma behind him. As soon as they were back in Vegeta's rooms, Bulma looked at him questioning. "Why did you run off like that all of the sudden Vegeta?" she asked. "I couldn't stay there another minute without blowing something up. I really hate Zarbon." Vegeta answered. "He was after you, and I don't like stupid full of themselves aliens rummaging with my mate." Vegeta looked like he was ready to take on the world defending her. Bulma smiled at him. Aww, that look is sooo sweet! She thought, and kissed him sweetly. "Woman, the prince of the Saiyans is not sweet." Vegeta grumbled. Bulma just giggled. "Whatever you say, my not sweet, stubborn, dark prince." She said, and kissed him again.
