Author's notes: Hi everyone. I just want to say thank you to everyone who sent me NICE reviews. For the nice people who send me nice reviews, I'll try to make this story better. And please, those nice people who read my story, please send me reviews. I would like to reiterate, I DO NOT LIKE FLAMES. Please do not send me reviews that say "you suck" because then I will cry and I hate to cry. But, I hope this chapter is better than the last one. Enjoy. ;)
Bulma and Vegeta walked into town looking for a place to eat dinner.
"Hey, can I ask you a question?" said Vegeta.
"Sure, I guess."
"OK, my and Vega's combat instructor has told me that he wants to move me to the higher level. He wants to keep Vega in the lower class because she has slow reflexes. I told the instructor that I would tell her, but I know she's not going to take it well. How should I tell her?" said Vegeta.
"I have known you for a couple months now and I've never known you to be at a loss for words." Said Bulma.
"I'm not afraid of hurting her feelings, I'm concerned she will stop attending the class or even drop."
"Just tell her, I'm sure she'll be fine with it. She wants you to do well, and if going to a higher level will help you do well, then I'm sure she'll be ok with it." Replied Bulma.
"I start in the new class on Monday." Said Vegeta.
"Well you better tell her soon." Said Bulma, "Anyhow, where do you want to eat?"
"I don't know, there are a ton of places here." Said Vegeta.
"Hey, how about this place?" said Bulma.
"The Cottage Inn?" said Vegeta.
"Yea, I heard they have great Italian Food." Said Bulma.
"Sure, let's go." Sighed Vegeta. Bulma and Vegeta walked into the restaurant and waited for the hostess to come and seat them.
"Hi!" said the hostess, "welcome to the Cottage Inn."
"Hi." Said Vegeta, "2 for non-smoking."
"Alright," said the hostess, " follow me." They followed the hostess to their table and sat down. They took a look at the menu and when the waitress came to their table, she took their orders. Vegeta and Bulma actually had pleasant conversation while they waited for their food to arrive. When their meal arrived, they still continued to converse.
"You know Vegeta, you've actually been pleasant this evening."
"Yea, well I did want you screaming at me all evening. My ear still hurts from when you yanked on it earlier." Said Vegeta. Bulma laughed a little.
"Thanks for making my day a little better." Said Bulma. Vegeta just flashed her his famous smirk.
"So," said Vegeta, "Favor me about what happened with the light."
"Nothing much to tell, I was looking for something in the room, and... I...umm, heard this creaking noise and I looked up and it fell on me."
"Hmm, well I guess you'll just have to call maintenance tomorrow and have them come and fix it." Said Vegeta. Bulma was confused by his sudden interest in her black eye. "Also, if you want to get the swelling down, put some ice on it."
"I'll remember that." Said Bulma. Just then, Bulma looked just beyond Vegeta. There sitting at a table on the other side of the restaurant was Piccolo and Vega. Bulma's mouth dropped.
"What? What are you looking at?" Vegeta turned around and looked for what Bulma was looking at. He too saw Vega and Piccolo.
"Well, how about that? She is seeing Piccolo!" laughed Bulma.
"What! You knew about this and didn't tell me?" said Vegeta as he turned around, obviously mad at the scene he just saw.
"Well, ChiChi and I didn't know for sure, but we had an inkling." Said Bulma; "They look so happy."
"And you didn't tell me anything of it? Gee, thanks." Snapped Vegeta.
"Well what would you have done with the information had we given it to you."
"I would have stopped it, like I am right now." Vegeta stood up.
"Vegeta! Sit down!" said Bulma.
"Why should I, I don't want her dating the Namek." Said Vegeta.
"Why not, they're cute together. I haven't seen Vega this happy since I met her." Vegeta growled and sat back down.
"If you think I'm not going to confront them with this later, you're even dumber than I thought."
"Whatever, just leave them alone for now." Yelled Bulma. Bulma and Vegeta finished their meal.
Meanwhile back on campus, ChiChi and Goku were going up to the girl's dorm.
"ChiChi? Can we order some pizza before we watch the movies?" whined Goku. ChiChi just sighed.
"Fine, Goku, even though you just at 3 hours ago." ChiChi and Goku got to the 16th floor and headed toward ChiChi's room. When they got to the room, ChiChi put her key in the hole and turned it to open, "That's odd, it's unlocked." She opened the door to her room. ChiChi just stood in the doorway of her room, shocked.
"Oh my god, what happened here?" cried ChiChi as she stared at her room in shambles. All their clothes were scattered throughout the room, their bed mattresses were off their lofts, their TV was smashed on the floor, glass from candle votives was everywhere, but what scared ChiChi the most was the writing on the window. With lipstick "Whore" was written on the window. ChiChi started to cry. Goku comforted her. Goku walked over to the phone, which seemed to be the only thing left, he picked it up to call the campus police.
"Goku, who are you calling? You're not ordering pizza at a time like this?" yelled ChiChi.
"I'm not that daft, ChiChi. I'm calling campus police."
"Oh," ChiChi sighed, "sorry."
"It's ok." ChiChi wrapped her arms around Goku's waist as he called the police. "Hi, my name is Son Goku, someone trashed my girlfriends dorm room...yea, I'll hold..." Goku paused his conversation with the officer on the phone and put his free arm around ChiChi. "Yea, I'm still here... ok, we'll wait here." With that Goku hung up the phone.
"Well, what did they say?" asked ChiChi,
"They're sending an officer over." ChiChi walked over to the light switch and flipped it. When the light did not go on she looked to see the light was gone from the ceiling.
"Well that's great. The light is gone. Who would have done this?" Goku picked up one of the unbroken table lamps off the floor and plugged it in. "And where are Vega and Bulma? They need to be here." ChiChi started to cry.
"Hey, don't cry." Goku said trying to comfort her again.
"I don't know how we're going to clean this up. Everything is destroyed." Sobbed ChiChi, "but what bothers me the most is that I don't know if this was aimed at me, Vega, or Bulma."
"I don't know."
Meanwhile, on the other side of town, Vegeta and Bulma had left the restaurant and were wandering aimlessly around the town, browsing through whatever shops were left open.
"Hey, Vegeta, what do you think of this shirt?" Bulma said holding up a small short sleeve shirt with flowers on it.
"Not much." Replied Vegeta.
"OH, you're no help at all."
"Hey, I just wanted to go back to campus, but no, you had to drag me into these stupid stores."
"They are not stupid, and maybe if you had some fun every once and awhile, you wouldn't be such a jerk all the time."
"Whatever."
"Oh fine, Vegeta, go home if you want, I'm staying in town!" yelled Bulma.
"Yea, right. I'm going to leave you here, in town, by yourself, at night. Whatever."
"I can take care of myself, Vegeta."
"Whatever, I may be a jerk, but I know better than to leave a weak woman by herself and when not to. At least give me credit for that." Snarled Vegeta.
"Oh, whatever, then stay, just stop being a such a terd. Ok."
"Fine." The two continued to shop for only a short while longer. They were getting ready to head back to campus.
"Hey Vegeta?" asked Bulma.
"What?"
"I was... uh,... wondering..."
"What, spit it out!" snapped Vegeta. Bulma just sighed.
"Could we fly back to campus?"
"What? No, absolutely not."
"Oh please, I've always wanted to, but Goku won't take me and you're the only other person I know that does. Well, other than Piccolo, but still, could we please!" pleaded Bulma.
"No, absolutely not, I don't know how well people take to people like me flying around here and I'd rather not find out." Snapped Vegeta.
"Ok, fine, I guess you're right." Sighed Bulma, "I mean people didn't exactly take well to Piccolo, but I understand." She started walking.
"Hold on a minute." Said Vegeta. Vegeta walked up to her and picked her up. "I swear to God, if I drop you, I'm not going to catch you."
"Whatever." Said Bulma smiling at him. Vegeta gave her the famous smirk back and then took off into the air.
A short while later, Vegeta and Bulma landed in front of the dorm.
"I had fun tonight, Vegeta, even though you were a jerk for while."
"Whatever, I guess I did too. I don't get to eat off campus that often." Said Vegeta trying to cover the fact that he did enjoy himself. The two walked into the building and Vegeta, being somewhat of a gentleman walked Bulma up to the 16th floor.
"Man, I can't wait to go to bed and put this whole day behind me, except for dinner." Said Bulma.
"Yea, I have to get up early tomorrow and train. I reserved a room in the gym for 5 hours tomorrow morning. I can't wait." Said Vegeta as they got off the elevator. As they made their way toward Bulma's room they saw Goku and ChiChi standing out side of the dorm talking to the police. Bulma ran to them.
"Oh my god, what happened here?" cried Bulma.
"Someone trashed the room." Said ChiChi. "Oh my god, what happened to your cheek?"
"I'll tell you later." Said Bulma
"Uh... miss, do you live here?" asked one of the officers.
"Yea, I'm Bulma Briefs."
"Have you been out all evening?" the officer asked.
"Umm... Yea, I've been out since about 8pm with him." Pointing to Vegeta. The cop turned to Vegeta.
"What's your name, son."
"Vegeta." the officer turned back to Bulma.
"So you were out with Vegeta all evening?" said the cop again.
"Yes, what's going on?"
"You two have a third roommate, correct?" asked the officer.
"Yes." Both girls replied.
"And where is she now."
"She's on a date with our friend Piccolo." Bulma said eyeballing ChiChi. ChiChi actually laughed at that. "I saw her at the restaurant, we ate at this evening."
"Alright, thanks for your time." Said the officer. Bulma walked past him and into the room. She looked at how everything was destroyed.
"Yamcha." Bulma whispered to herself. 'Was he really that mad at me? Does he really think I'm a whore?' Bulma thought to herself.
Just then, Vega walked through the door. She just stood in the doorway, shocked beyond conscious thought. Vega could feel the anger flow through her body.
"Vega, thank god you're here." Said Bulma.
"How did this happen?" said Vega. "Did you leave the door unlocked? How did they get in?"
"Well the cops said that they jimmied the lock with something, because the it looked like the door was just unlocked."
"Do you have any idea of who would do this?" asked ChiChi. Vega just stood there for a few more seconds. Then she threw her purse down on the floor and walked out.
"Vega, where are you going?" yelled Vegeta from the doorway.
"Leave me alone." Replied Vega.
"Oh she's pissed as hell." Said ChiChi.
"Yea, we're all mad." Said Goku.
"But, I could feel her anger flowing." Said Vegeta.
"Why didn't she stay to help clean up?" said Bulma.
"Where is she going?" said ChiChi. Suddenly, Vegeta's head perked up.
"Oh no." he whispered.
"What's wrong?" asked Bulma. Vegeta ran past her and grabbed Goku.
"Come on, Kakarot." Yelled Vegeta.
"Where are we going?" yelled Goku as he followed.
"The 8th floor."
Meanwhile on the 8th floor, Vega was standing at the door of her old room. She pounded on the door and covered the peephole. As soon as the door opened, Vega saw it was Leila and grabbed her by the neck and slammed her against the opposite wall.
"VEGA! WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU!?" screamed Leila.
"What the hell is wrong with you, Leila. You break into my room and try and destroy my life again. I should snap your neck here and now." Growled Vega. It was at that moment that Vegeta and Goku came running down the hall.
"Vega, put her down." Yelled Goku.
"Vega, it wasn't them! It wasn't them!" said Vegeta.
"How do you know?"
"I just know, they're not that smart." Said Vegeta. "Now put her down." Vega dropped her on the floor.
"If I ever see you or Tish near the 16th floor, ever, I will rip your head off." Was all Vega said before returning to her room. Vegeta and Goku looked down at Leila on the floor.
"I don't know you, but from what I've heard, I don't like you. But I am sorry for her actions." Said Goku before he and Vegeta walked away. "You know Vegeta, your sister needs to work on her anger control."
"Shut up, Kakarot."
Ok, I'm not so fond of this chapter either, but like one of my nice reviews told me, it's building chapter. I'm suffering a little bit of writers block with moving plot along. But I think in the next chapter I should be able to get some important stuff moving. PLEASE, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, REVIEW MY STORY. BUT PLEASE, NO FLAMES OR TELLING ME I SUCK. Thank. ;)
