Piccolo's Landscaping Service
Chapter 3--- Roommates? With Piccolo?!
The two later came down in the parking lot next to Yasha's car. She walked around
it and found that lucky now had broken into it. Yasha turned and smile, "Well
my car is still here, that's a good thing." Piccolo glanced over and her neck
caught his eye. The cut was almost healed already to his surprise. "Hey that
cut is almost gone." he spoke. Yasha turned around and grabbed her throat. "Uhh
yah it healed pretty quick but that cut was really more of a scratch." she smiled.
Yasha gave a big grin after and the two walked into the store. Piccolo followed Yasha
but had other things on his mind. As they went to the back people stopped and stared
at Piccolo passing by giving him dirty or odd looks. He just shrugged it off and
the two made their way into the backroom. Uncle Joe was sitting at his desk with
a large bump on his head. The two said there mornings and Piccolo just gave a nod.
They continued onward to the last backroom to get ready. Yasha took out there name
tags she had put in her locker and the two began to put them on. Yasha finished and
retied her shoe laces so they where tighter on her. Piccolo walked over and looked
down at her, "Umm Yasha, could I...ask you something?" he questioned. She
finished and looked up at him. "Sure, go ahead." she said smiling. Piccolo
frowned and seem to get really serious all of a sudden to her, "How can you
look at me like that?" Yasha was taken a little back by the questioned and replied
jokingly, "With my eyes silly." She saw that Piccolo was really serious
about what he asked, "You mean why I don't make faces at you or not want to
be around you, is that it?" she said becoming serious herself. "Yes that's
what I mean." Piccolo responded. Yasha grinned a little, "Cause I'm not
jealous of you." Piccolo was a little surprised at first, "What do you
mean,...jealous?" Yasha walked closer to Piccolo, "Well," in a sly
tone, "Everyone else is totally jealous of not being a big hot and totally great
Namek like you. I mean why wouldn't they be jealous, your everything they want to
be and more!" Piccolo raised a eye ridge to her. "And why aren't you jealous
of me then?" he puzzled. Yasha looked down then walked even closer to Piccolo
till she was about 6 inches away from him. She then looked back up and gave him a
very sly look, "Well really because I did this..." Piccolo was too surprised
by her answer to stop what she did next. Yasha jumped up on top of him causing Piccolo
to slam against the back wall. She moved so fast Piccolo didn't know what was going
on. Yasha wrapped her arms around Piccolo and pressed her lips against his. She closed
her eyes and began kissing him in such a way. Piccolo just stared at her for a second
but then found that he was starting to give in to what was happening. Soon he closed
his eyes and the two where madly kissing each other. Yasha was feeling every part
of Piccolo's mouth with her tongue and Piccolo was doing the same to Yasha. There
started to get so wrapped up into each other. Piccolo clasped Yasha's head and she
began to dig into his back with her nails. The kiss seemed so brutal but then slowed
down till it was strangely gentle. Yasha opened her eyes and got down off of Piccolo.
He seem to wake up and just stared at Yasha, "WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT!?!"
he screamed. Yasha looked back up at him and smiled her sweet smile, "That is
what is called a "French Kiss." Piccolo just stood there in awe. Yasha
walked over to a mirror and fixed her hair, "You see my point now." Piccolo
shook it off and swallowed hard and still tasting Yasha in his mouth, "Uhhh,
yaaa,... I think I got your point." She turned around and smiled more, "Good!"
She turned and walked to the door and looked up at a sheet, "You have info desk
today, be out in 5 minutes and be ready to work, ok?" Piccolo looked over at
her, "Uhh yah I got it, I'll be ready." Yasha grinned and walked out. Piccolo
stood there silent for a second. Then he walked over to the sink and mirror and washed
his face with some cold water. As he dried his face he looked at himself at the mirror
and spoke out load to himself. "What the hell did you get your self into? *sigh*
Well it wasn't too bad that kiss, I think I kinda like it. I wonder what else Yasha
can do?" Piccolo shook his head. "Wait I know, I'll read up about this
kissing thing and love too. Hey I work in a bookstore, might as well." he finished
and walked back out.
The day went slow so Piccolo got a lot of reading done.
Yasha was in the front doing the cashier duties. She was a little puzzled that she
saw Piccolo taken books back and forth. Him reading so many books wasn't puzzling
her it was that fact he was going back and forth from the Romance section. She just
smiled and thought, "I guess that kiss really made him think. Hey not bad for
my first kiss if I do say so myself." At break time Yasha walked over to Piccolo
who was heavily reading now. Piccolo was a little startled to her Yasha's voice,
"Hey is that any good?" Piccolo looked sharply up, "Uhh Yasha, umm
I was just you know, getting some reading done." "Is that soo." she
evilly smiled. "Ok." She turned around and took about two steps forward,
then turned half way around, "But Piccolo what I didn't know was that you where
the romantic type." She smiled and walked away laughing. Piccolo frowned and
thought it was best to stop reading, for now. At the end of the day Piccolo was amazed
at what he had learned. Tons of stuff about love and how it's preformed an all kinds
of ways shocked him. How it went from a kiss like that one her had early to the messing
of two souls as one. He never knew that love was so strong and weak at the same time.
He felt a little better about the subject after gather all the info on it. This love
thing really made him rethink people and why them spend so much time with it. He
thought it was just something he would never need or want but that kiss he felt.
The feeling didn't go away for a while and it was so wild and yet calm. It was if
he knew what to do but he had never done that before or knew about it till today.
Well the work day ended and they both checked out. Piccolo walked Yasha out to her
car, "Umm Yasha could we...never mind." and he turned away from her. He
was about to take off he Yasha yelled to him, "Wait! Hey tell me what is it,
you can talk to me." Piccolo turned back to her, "Well could we you know,
do that again sometime, I guess...I kinda...uhh.. like it." he said sweating
heavily. Yasha smiled sweetly at him, "only if you want to." Piccolo looked
at her a little funny then just grinned. He turned his back to her but looked back,
"Thanks." he grinned. "Same time tomorrow right?" "Yah but
I'll drive you to your house if you want." Piccolo turned back around, "I
don't have a house." Yasha blinked, "A apartment then?" Piccolo shook
his head no, "I live out in the desert with a house or a apartment or any kind
of building." he spoke. Yasha frowned, "Well that wont do! You can live
with be, every one needs a place to call home now and again." Piccolo's eyes
widen, "Uhh live...with you?" he spat out. "Yah what's wrong with
that?" she yelled. Piccolo turned back around and looked back again, "I'll
think about it." with this said he took off into the sky. Yasha watched him
as he went out of site. "Wow!" she finally spoke. "He better not lie
and teach me that." Yasha smiled and got into her car and took off.
About 45 minutes later she got home cause she stopped to pick up some more food for
home. She parked her car at the side of the road and walked up the path to the house.
She walked up the small hill and went through the front field to the house. She unlocked
the door and went in. Since it was another warm summer night she opened all the doors
and windows to have the breeze run through. She got dinner cooking and was letting
a pot of rice boil. She began to walk into the living room but she stopped dead in
her tracks. There was Piccolo sitting at the table, looking outside once more. Yasha
just looked but managed to speak, "Uhh hello Piccolo." Piccolo looked over
at her, Yasha just stared. "I'm gonna take up that offer and stay with you,
just for a while." he spoke. Yasha grinned finally, "Yah sure that's fine
with me." Piccolo grinned at her. Yasha just then began to look around. Piccolo
looked funny at her, "What's wrong?" Yasha looked back at Piccolo, "I
don't have a room for you tonight, sorry." she frowned. Piccolo grinned, "You
don't have to worry about that." Yasha looked at Piccolo funny, "Ok if
you say so." She went back into the kitchen and finished cooking the two's dinner.
She had a tender cube steak cooked with pea's and applesauce. Piccolo seemed to enjoy
it a lot. When they where done he figured it would be best if he helped out around
the house. Yasha told him how to dry the dishes and where they went while she washed.
The two got along great and each one enjoy each other's company greatly. When everything
was done the two sat outside in the midsummer's air. Piccolo was only sitting there
with Yasha in the front cause she pushed him into it. Piccolo just laid back and
was in a deep stare at the stars. Yasha looked over and then up and all around. She
looked back over to Piccolo and asked, "Piccolo where are you from, I mean if
your not human are you a alien?" Piccolo looked over at Yasha, "Yah I am
what you would call a alien, and my father was from a planet called Namek."
Piccolo lifted his arm up and pointed to a star to the right of Orion's belt. It
was right there but we can still see it cause it was so far away." Yasha looked
back down at Piccolo, "Was?" Piccolo seem to frown a little as if she hit
a nerve. "Yah it use to be there but it was blown up in a great battle years
ago." Yasha looked down, "I'm sorry if I brought that up." Piccolo
grinned, "No it's ok." Piccolo looked over at Yasha, "Anything else
you want to know?" Yasha smiled a bit as she thought, "Yah, who are your
other friends, you do have other friends?" she questioned. Piccolo laughed a
little, "Yes I do have friend's, Gohan is my best friend, Goku, Krillin, Tein,
and Yamcha, and maybe even Chozu." Yasha eye's widen, "Your friend's with
Goku!" she yelled. Piccolo grinned, "Yah I guess I am, but it wasn't always
like that." he spoke saddening. Yasha looked worried, "Why?" Piccolo
sat up and looked down then back over at Yasha. "I was very different long ago
and I don't think you would like it." Piccolo looked back up, Yasha just frowned
more, "Please, it's ok... you can tell me." Piccolo looked over and saw
she was serious. "Are you sure you really want to know?" Yasha shook her
head yes.
Piccolo let a sigh, "I'm not too sure why I'm telling you
this but I was who I was. After my father died I was left alone to finish what he
started, I was to kill Goku and take over the world. I was just his tool of destruction
and because I look the way I do people shunned me everywhere I went. Later I got
to fight Goku in that torment you saw with me in it. I was almost killed but he helped
me instead of finishing me. I wasn't to sure what to think then. So he let me go
and I went off still bent on killing him after all that. Then Goku's brother came
down from space and said he was going to kill every one on Earth. I teamed up with
Goku to beat him. I had my own plans and I didn't need this guy messing them up.
After the fight was done I had to kill Goku and his brother to save us all. Before
in the fight Goku's son, Gohan showed great powers but he was too young to control
them. So before Goku's brother died he said that two others where coming to finish
what he started and that they where even stronger then him." Piccolo went on
and told Yasha all about how he died and the fight on Namek and finished with all
about Cell. When he was finished Yasha just looked at him with this odd stare. Piccolo
looked back at her, "I told you, you were not going to like it." Yasha
moved closer over to Piccolo till she was next to him. She looked up into his eye's
deeply. Piccolo looked confused back to her. Yasha wrapped her arms around Piccolo's
midsection and gave him a great big hug. Piccolo wasn't too sure what to do so he
just let her hug him. Piccolo looked down at her, "Why are you hugging me?"
Yasha just looked up as well and smiled, "Cause you need it!" Piccolo just
sighed and Yasha let go of him and moved away over a little. Piccolo looked over
at Yasha, "I told you about me now it's your turn." Yasha was a little
surprised but it was only fair that she would do the same. Well I lived with my parents
in the city till I was about 8, by then I saw you in the Tenkaichi-Budoukai. My grandpa
was a martial artist and that's why I went to all the matches. He taught me all I
know about fighting and I just use it know to keep in shape and just relax. My father
took care of grandpa till he finally died. Grandma was so very sad that she must
have died of a broken heart. I told you what happen to my parent's and that's about
it. It's really nothing compare to what you lived through." Yasha just smiled
and looked upward. Piccolo just looked down. Piccolo then got a strange idea in his
head, one he would never do but he felt like he should. Piccolo kept thinking more
and more about it till for some reason he just gave in. It could have been he was
becoming soft hearted or he felt compassion for Yasha. Piccolo grabbed Yasha by the
shoulders and pulled her closer. Yasha was too shocked at what was going on to move.
Piccolo actually started to hug her, Yasha just froze and wasn't too sure what to
do. Piccolo gave her a quick hug and let her go, Yasha just stared at Piccolo wide
eye. Piccolo just stared back blankly. "Uhh.. why did you hug me?" she
wearily questioned. Piccolo just grinned and said softly, "Cause you needed
it." Yasha just blinked blankly for a little bit. She started to giggle and
then broke into laugher. Piccolo looked a little funny at her, he wasn't too sure
why she was laughing. She shortly stopped and wiped her eyes. "Thank you Piccolo."
she smiled and got up and started towards the house. Piccolo turned and watched her,
she stopped and turn he self around, "Well I'm calling it a night." She
smiled a loving smile at him, "Good night Piccolo." Piccolo grinned, "Goodnight
Yasha." he replied. She turned back around and went into the house. Piccolo
watched her till she was asleep. He smiled and got up himself, he changed into his
cape and turban and went back up on top of the tree. He probably should have gone
into deep mediations but instead he just felt like looking up at the sky.
