Authors Notes: In case you're wondering. Where I got to school, Quick Fixx is the name of the on campus convenience store. It's like a crappy party store with a small crappy movie rental section. Also, I don't own Quick Fixx, or NBC's Law and Order, or any of the movies mentioned.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It was Wednesday evening. Bulma was giving Vegeta a fake calculus test. He had an actual test in the class the next day and she wanted to make sure he knew everything before he took the exam. He had been working on the test for a good hour now. Bulma was sitting at her desk trying to work on her own homework while he took the test, but she was hardly concentrating.
'I wonder what he thinks about me? Probably not much. He is cute though. Maybe I should ask Vega what he likes in a girl. God I feel like I'm in high school girl with a crush again.' Bulma though and giggled to herself. Just then the phone rang; Vegeta reached up to answer it. "Don't touch that phone." Said Bulma, "You have to work on that test." Vegeta just grumbled. Bulma picked up the phone.
"Hello." Bulma said sweetly into the phone. Just as quickly as she said hello he hung up the phone and unplugged it from the wall.
"What was that for?" asked Vegeta.
"Nothing." Said Bulma, "Finish that test." Vegeta looked at her with concern. Bulma sat back down at her desk and starting working on her homework again. 'I can't believe he called. Why would he call? He knows I want nothing to do with him. I hope he doesn't come back when I go home this weekend. Vega will beat him within an inch of his life.' Bulma giggled at that last though, then she touched the bruise on her face, which was starting to fade a little bit. Vegeta looked up at her when she giggled.
"What are you laughing at?" he asked.
"Nothing. Are you going to finish that test or not?" she snapped.
"Yea, remember I'm not a genius, so it's going to take me a while." Vegeta snapped back.
"You can keep stopping like that during the exam." Said Bulma, "Now get crackin'." Vegeta just growled in response.
'What is it about her? I just like being around her. What is wrong with me? I can't get attached to her. I have other things that are more important that her.' Vegeta thought before he continued with his fake test.
Finally about an hour later, Vegeta finished the test.
"There I'm done. Are you happy?" Vegeta snapped as he handed her the test.
"Finally, I thought I was going to have to stay up all night waiting for you to finish." Sarcastically stated Bulma.
"Shut up."
"Make me."
"Whatever, just check the answers and tell me what I did wrong so I can figure out how to do it right." Snapped Vegeta. Bulma took the test and pulled out the answer sheet to it and checked his answers.
"Good job, Veggie."
"STOP CALLING ME THAT!" yelled Vegeta.
"Whatever. You got them all right."
"I did." Beamed Vegeta, "Alright!"
"There's hope for you yet." Said Bulma.
"Well, what do you want to do now?" asked Vegeta, "I don't feel like going back to my room. Vega and Piccolo are up there and Kakarrot and ChiChi are the library."
"Well, let's order a pizza and watch a movie or something." Suggested Bulma.
"Sounds alright to me." said Vegeta, "Let's go down to Quick Fixx and rent a movie from there. When we get back we'll order the pizza." And with that, Bulma reattached the phone and they got their coats on and left for Quick Fixx.
Meanwhile, Vega and Piccolo were silently watching television. They were sitting on the floor and Vega was sitting with her back to his chest between his legs. Piccolo desperately wanted to ask her again about the other day, but he knew she wouldn't tell him. He figured she'd tell him when she was ready, so he wrapped his arms around her tighter.
"This is quite possibly the dumbest show I've ever watched." Chuckled Vega.
"Yea, I have to agree with you." Said Piccolo, "Let's see what else is on." Piccolo picked up the remote and started flipping though the channels.
"I can't believe this planet. You have over 70 television channels and still nothing is on." Laughed Vega.
"Don't forget that I'm from Namek. We don't even have television." Said Piccolo.
"True. Are you planning on going back to Namek after you graduate?" asked Vega.
"I don't know. I doubt it. I've lived here for a couple years now. I like earth." Said Piccolo, "What about you? Are you going back to Planet Vegeta after you graduate."
"I have to. I'm the Princess, remember." Sighed Vega, "My father wants me to major in politics and take part in diplomatic matters with the kingdom, but I don't know. Vegeta is heir to the throne; the only way I could be Queen is if something happened to him. But, I have no desire to be Queen."
"Why not?" asked Piccolo.
"Because, I'd have to deal with all those assholes that my father deals with now." Laughed Vega then she grabbed the remote from him, "Oh, Law and Order is on." She left the television on that.
"I think being the Honorable Elder would be nice."
"What's that?"
"What? Honorable Elder? It's kind of being the King, but you're more of an advice giver for the people. I look up to the Honorable Elder, he is major inspiration in my life." said Piccolo.
"We don't have that on Vegeta." Smiled Vega, "We're all just a bunch of heartless monkey's."
"Monkey's?"
"Oh yea, when a full moon hits, we turn into giant monkey's." Vega smiled brightly.
"Remind me to keep you away from the full moon." Laughed Piccolo.
"What? It's fun. I like my Ozaru form. I could kick Vegeta's ass in that form, all I'd have to do is step on him." Laughed Vega.
"Well can't he turn into one too?" asked Piccolo.
"Well, yea, but that last thought was of him not in Ozaru." Laughed Vega, "Besides, don't worry, I don't have my tail anymore and I don't need a tail to do it."
"What?" laughed a shocked Piccolo.
"Yea, I lost my tail when I went on a mission, and I found I was still able to transform even without it. Daddy said it's because of my royal blood. See most Saiyan's need their Tail to transform under the full moon. But, with the tail, they have no control over the transformations, they transform regardless. Without the tail, I can control when I want to transform under the full moon." Said Vega.
"Alrighty, remind me not to upset you during the full moon." Said Piccolo. Vega playfully hit him on the shoulder.
"Well, tell me something interesting about your race." Said Vega.
"Well, we Nameks can fuse with one another." Said Piccolo.
"Really? Like how?"
"Well, when two Nameks fuse, their powers are combined. For instance, if I were to fuse with another Namek, I would get all of his powers and I'd know everything that he knows."
"That's really cool." Smiled Vega, "Are you fused with anyone?"
"No. Fusing is only to be done in emergency situations."
"Ah."
"So, what's going on with Law and Order?" asked Piccolo.
"I don't know, we were bonding." Smiled Vega.
Meanwhile, down at Quick Fixx...
"Woman, I'm not watching that blasted movie." Yelled Vegeta.
"What's wrong with "Boys on the Side!" It's a really good movie." Yelled Bulma.
"It's a chick flick! I'm a man, I don't want to watch a chick flick."
"Well, I don't want to watch a movie that's all bloody and gory, and full of violence."
"Who said I wanted to watch a violent movie?" snapped Vegeta.
"Well, what movie do you want to watch?"
"Well, how about "Striptease?" Vegeta said this just to get a rise out of her.
"Oh I am so out of here!!" yelled Bulma as she began to walk away. Vegeta grabbed her arm as she walked past him.
"Wait a minute." He said laughing, "I was just kidding. Jeez, calm down." He looked down at her half-angered eyes, "Let's just pick a movie."
"Fine." She looked up at him and tried to creek a smile.
"How about this one?"
"Dogma?" asked Bulma.
"Yea, it's really funny. Kakarrot, Piccolo and I watched it on the university channel a couple weeks ago. Can you tolerate excessive language?"
"Yea." Snapped Bulma.
"Let's get this then." Said Vegeta in a really calm voice.
"Alright." Said Bulma. The two walked up to the register and rented the movie.
"See that wasn't so hard." Said Vegeta, "I knew you see it my way." Then Vegeta gave her a quick smack on the butt. Bulma shot him a death glare and then stepped on his foot.
"What was that for?" Vegeta said in slight pain and laughing.
"You tell me?" snapped Bulma.
"Please, tell me you two aren't a couple?" said the lady at the register.
"What?" said Bulma. "No we're not." The clerk handed Vegeta the movie and they turned to walk out of the store, "Me and this monkey. What ever!" laughed Bulma.
"Hey!" snapped Vegeta with a slight smile.
There was a knock at the door.
"I'll get that." Said Vega as she got up out of Piccolo's lap.
"I wonder who that is?" said Piccolo.
"It's probably either Vegeta or Kakarrot. They must of forgot their key." Said Vega as she opened the door. "Hi." She said.
"I have a delivery for a Piccolo." Said the man at the door. Piccolo got up and went to the door.
"I didn't order any pizza." Said Piccolo.
"Well I have an order here for 5 large pizzas and 5 orders of bread sticks." Said the delivery guy. Vega started to laugh.
"You're just at the butt of someone's joke aren't you?" smiled Vega.
"Look do you want these or no?" snapped the delivery guy. Vega looked at Piccolo.
"I can't afford all of them."
Oh, I'll take some. I love cold pizza in the morning. I can eat it before I go to class or something." Vega ran from the door to get her purse.
"How much is the damage?" asked Piccolo.
"Uh, $76.96." said the delivery guy. Just then Vega came back to the door with $40 in her hand.
"Here." She handed the money to Piccolo, who had got out money himself. Piccolo gave the money to the guy and he left.
"I'm sorry about the mess up." said Piccolo.
"Yea whatever." Said the pizza guy as he walked away. Piccolo shut the door and they walked back into the room with the pizza. Vega sat down on the floor and opened a box.
"Well, at least who ever ordered it for us, has good taste in pizza." Said Vega as she pulled a piece out of the box. Piccolo sat down next to her and took a bit of her pizza.
"Mmm, pepperoni." Said Piccolo. Vega just smiled at him.
