ChiChi glared at Vega, who was visibly upset from her spat with Piccolo.
"So where were you can Goku today?" seethed ChiChi.
"Nowhere." Vega mumbled.
"Oh, don't give me that crap, Vega! You two have been gone all day. I want to know where you've been."
"I don't need this right now ChiChi, and who says I was even with Kakarrot?" Vega shot back.
"What do you want my boyfriend for? You have your own." Growled ChiChi.
"What?!" snapped Vega, "You think I would do something like that? Jeez, ChiChi, give me some respect."
"Well it seems to me that you two have been getting awful chummy lately, and I want to know why!" ChiChi yelled back.
"I haven't been doing anything with Kakarrot!" Vega yelled.
"Stop lying to me, you bitch." ChiChi yelled back.
"Excuse me?" Vega yelled back.
"You heard me!"
"WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM?" shrieked Vega.
"My problem is that someone I considered a good friend, is having an affair with my boyfriend." Yelled ChiChi.
"I'm so out of here. I don't need this crap from you." Huffed Vega as she stuffed her armor and some clothes into a bag.
"That's right, run away. Doesn't want to deal with the problem at hand, so she just leaves." Smirked ChiChi. Vega, who was opening the door to leave, turned to face her.
"I'm leaving because if I stay here, I'll end up hurting you and I don't want to do that." Said Vega as she slammed the door. Vega walked down to the boy's room and wrote a note on their dry erase board.
'I'm gone, V.' was all that she wrote. She then proceeded to leave the building. She used her telepathic bond with her father to tell him she wanted a ship to come pick her up. After she contacted her father, she flew out to the mountains to wait for the ship. Two hours later, the ship arrived and she left.
Meanwhile, Goku and Piccolo were having a similar situation. Piccolo walked into the dorm and growled at Goku who as asleep.
"Goku, wake up." growled Piccolo. When Goku didn't wake up, Piccolo gave him a smack to wake him up.
"What do you want?" mumbled Goku.
"Where the hell were you with Vega today?" Piccolo said coldly.
"I wasn't with Vega today." Grumbled Goku.
"Goku, wake up and talk to me." Goku lazily sat up.
"Piccolo, I wasn't with Vega today. What's up with you and ChiChi? She thinks I was with Vega today too. I went home to train in the mountains and when I didn't make any headway, I went home to train with my dad." Said Goku.
"Both ChiChi and I noticed that you two were gone when we woke up this morning, and that you two returned around basically the same time, what do you think that leads us to believe?" snapped Piccolo, "Look, I just want the truth from you. You're my best friend, Goku, and I think I deserve the truth. Do you and Vega have something going on behind our backs?"
"WHAT!" shrieked Goku, "God, NO! I'm with ChiChi, remember. Why would I ever do something like that?"
"I don't know what to think. Vega has been acting awful strange all week, and then with today, I just don't know." Sighed Piccolo.
"Just don't press her with it, I'm sure she'll tell you when she's ready." Said Goku.
"I don't know if I can trust her, though." Said Piccolo.
"Why not?"
"She lied to me." said Piccolo.
"About what?"
"When I asked her where she was today, she told me that she had an emergency meeting back home that she had to attend. I asked her if Vegeta went with her and she said yes." Said Piccolo, "Vegeta didn't go home today, ChiChi and I talked to them about a half hour before you came back."
"So, she didn't want to tell you where she was, that doesn't mean she's cheating on you." Said Goku.
"I know, I think ChiChi put all these idea's in my head." Chuckled Piccolo, "But I trust that you're telling me the truth."
"I am. I guess I'm going to have to talk to ChiChi tomorrow." said Goku.
"Yea, she's probably really mad at Vega, too." Said Piccolo; "I was kind of short with her too. I'm probably going to have to do the ass kissers dance tomorrow."
"I'm going back to sleep now." Chuckled Goku.
"Talk to ya in the morning." Said Piccolo as he got ready for bed himself.
It was close to 5am when Vega's ship landed on Vegetasei. King Vegeta was waiting on the landing dock when she landed. Everyone who was on the landing dock dropped to their knees when she exited her ship.
"Thank you. You all may rise." She said as she walked up to her father and gave him a hug. She was practically crying when she saw him.
"So are you going to tell me what happened that you had to wake me up in the middle of the night to send a ship to pick you up?" asked the King.
"In a little while, Daddy." Sighed Vega, "I need a shower and I want to go talk to Rosnia. I haven't seen her in ages."
"Ok, Princess." Vega and her father left the hanger and walked back into the main part of the castle.
"So how is school going?" he asked.
"It's alright. Vegeta got moved into a higher level of Combat Training."
"Good, Good." Smiled the King, "and what about you?"
"Nope. My reflexes are too slow. I'm working on it though."
"We will fight later, so I can see your progress." Said the King.
"Ok, Daddy. Tell the cooks I want breakfast brought to my room so I can eat while I get ready." Said Vega; "It feels so good to be home, even if it's only for a night."
"It's nice to have you here." Said the King; "Something is different about you though."
"What?" said Vega. The King looked at her for a couple of seconds then he realized what it was.
"You're in the bonding process, aren't you?"
"Daddy, I'll talk to you about that later. For now, don't worry about it. I want to talk to Rosnia about it first." Smiled Vega.
"Alright, but when you get back from your meeting with Rosnia, come see me. I have some diplomatic matters I want you to look over."
"Daddy!" whined Vega; her father shot her a glare, "Fine."
"Good, now go on." Said the King. Vega kissed her father on the cheek and walked into her room and shut the door. She looked around her room and sighed.
"Man I missed my room." She smiled and ran and jumped on her bed. She laid on her bed for a few minutes before she sat up and opened her bag. She pulled out her armor and her change of clothes. She looked at them for a few moments. She then got up and walked over to her closet and opened it. She pulled out her royal attire and laid it on the bed.
"I'm wearing this." Smiled Vega as she made way into the shower.
A couple hours later Vega had showered and changed in to her royal attire. The cooks had placed a feast in her room while she was in the shower. She laughed at the site of all the food in her room. She figured she could take some of the food back to school with her. Vegeta was probably dying for some saiyan food. She exited her room and began to walk down the hall to the throne room. Just about every guard in the palace bowed their heads as Vega walked past. She never realized how annoying it was, until now. Vega walked into the throne room to tell her father she was leaving for Rosnia's.
"Daddy, I'm going out now. I'll be back later." Said Vega.
"Ok, Princess. Be careful and you're not leaving for earth until you go over these diplomatic matters and spar with me, so don't think that by staying out all day you can get out of it."
"Ok, daddy." Said Vega as she left the room. She walked to the window across from the throne room door and opened it. She climbed out the window and took to the sky.
Vega quickly flew across the local kingdom. She had missed being able to do that; flying with out fear of ridicule. She quickly caught site of her friend's home and flew up to the window. She knocked on it as she looked inside. Rosnia was still asleep. Vega laughed to herself. She landed on the ground and knocked on the front door. Rosnia's mother, Galia, opened the door.
"Princess!" smiled Galia as she dropped to her knees and bowed. Vega laughed.
"Miss Galia, how many times have I told you, you don't have to do that." Said Vega.
"Many I'm sure." Smiled Galia as she stood back up and gave Vega a hug, "How have you been, child?"
"I'm good. I'm just home for the day, because I missed Rosnia and I wanted to talk to her."
"Oh, she'll be excited. She's been trying to get the nerve to as your father if she could take a ship to earth to visit you, but she's still afraid of him." Laughed Galia.
"She shouldn't be afraid. My dad likes her." Said Vega. Galia took a few seconds to look at her.
"Something's different about you; are you bonding to someone?" smiled Galia, "Who's the lucky boy?"
"He's from Namek." Said Vega with a small smile.
"A Namek, does your father know?"
"Not yet, I'm going to talk to him tonight about it, but I want to talk to Rosnia first."
"Well go on up, she's still asleep, but I'm sure she won't mind you waking her." Said Galia.
"Ok." Said Vega as she went upstairs to her friend room. She slowly opened the door and walked into her friend's room. Rosnia didn't even hear her come in. Vega laughed to herself and then jumped on Rosnia's bed, scaring her half to death.
"AAAHHHH!" shrieked Rosnia and she bolted up in bed. Vega just laughed. It took Rosnia a moment to collect herself before she realized who was there, "Holy shit, Vega!" she shrieked before giving her best friend a hug.
"Man, I missed you." Smiled Vega.
"Me too. How's school going? Is earth fun? Any good parties? Any cute guys? Girl I want details!" giggled Rosnia.
"Ok, Earth is alright. Most of the people who inhabit that planet are really narrow minded, but there are a select few that aren't. I haven't been to any parties yet, but I go out to some dance clubs with my roommates every now and then." Smiled Vega.
"What about the guys, are they cute?"
"Not really. I do kind of have a boy friend though, which is kind of the reason I'm here." Said Vega.
"What's wrong?" said Rosnia giving her a stern look.
"How do you know something is wrong?"
"Because you always come to me when you have boy problems."
"Well, you're the only one I know who found their mate when they were 16."
"Hey, just because I happened to bond to Jerrk quickly, doesn't mean we have a perfect relationship."
"I'm still surprised you're not barefoot and pregnant yet."
"We've decided to wait a little while before we start living together. I just don't feel right leaving mom alone, especially since dad died."
"I understand. Jerrk can always come here to live with you, ya know." smiled Vega.
"I know, Jerrk and I are discussing our options. But, enough about me, I want to hear about your man." Smiled Rosnia.
"Ok, his name is Piccolo." Said Vega.
"Piccolo?"
"Yea, he's from Namek."
"A Namekian?" Rosnia said almost shocked.
"Yea, he's really sweet. He treats me better than any of the guys here did. He doesn't treat me like property, he doesn't treat me like a princess either. He's just a really great guy." Smiled Vega.
"So what's the problem?"
"Me."
"What about you?"
"Well, here's the story. Vegeta got moved to a higher-class level in Combat Training. Apparently, my reflexes are too slow. But, anyhow, Vegeta's roommate is Kakarrot, you know Bardock's son."
"I vaguely remember him, but ok."
"Anyhow, Kakarrot is stronger and better than Vegeta, believe it or not. So, after a bunch of stuff happened, Kakarrot offered to help me build up my reflexes. So yesterday, Kakarrot and I went to this mountain range away from civilization, and trained for the entire day. We left at like 5am and didn't get back until almost 11pm. I don't want anyone, especially Vegeta, to know I'm getting help from Kakarrot. So we didn't tell anyone we were going. Well, when I got back, Piccolo came down to my dorm and was all cranky about me not telling him where I was going."
"Did you tell him?"
"No, I told him that I got a call from dad and that I went home for the day with Vegeta. Well, that little fib fell through, because they had talked to Vegeta, who went to his "girlfriends" house for the weekend, a little while before I came home." Sighed Vega.
"Vegeta HAS A GIRLFRIEND!!!" laughed Rosnia.
"Yea, I'll tell you about that later."
"Who would have guessed?" Rosnia laughed some more.
"ANYhow, Piccolo knew I was lying to him so he called me on it, and he thinks I'm cheating on him with Kakarrot. But, then on top of that, Kakarrot's girlfriend thinks the same thing and she's all pissed at me. Kakarrot and Vegeta's girlfriends are my roommates, by the way."
"So, let me see, if I got this straight. Piccolo thinks you're cheating on him with Kakarrot. Kakarrot's girlfriend thinks he's cheating on her with you. And all you two were doing were training in the mountains."
"Yea, I'm still not going to tell them what is going on, but I don't want them to think we're cheating on them either. I really like Piccolo and I don't want to hurt him." Said Vega.
"I can tell you really like him, because you've starting bonding to him." Smiled Rosnia
"Yea, I know." said Vega, "I don't know how my dad's going to take it. Probably better than he will to Vegeta's."
"Vegeta's starting bonding too?" said Rosnia.
"No, they're not officially going out, but they will eventually."
"Ok, anyhow, when are you planing on telling them you've been getting help from Kakarrot?"
"Probably after Parents weekend, my Combat instructor has informed me that I am going to fight Vegeta in an exhibition that weekend. I want to kick his ass so bad I can taste it." Smiled Vega.
"You need to reassure him that you're only interested in him and that you'll tell him what's going on when you're ready. He's got to understand that."
"I know, and you'd think he would, but he was so mad at me yesterday. I don't know if he even wants to talk to me." sighed Vega. Rosnia, who was still in her pajama's, got of her bed and walked into her bathroom to change.
"I'm gonna try and give this to you from a male perspective." Said Rosnia from inside the bathroom, "Piccolo is a man and men are stupid. No matter what you do, he's going to be retarded about it, so you really shouldn't worry."
"I know, but it was just upsetting that he didn't trust me."
"Does anyone know you're here?" asked Rosnia.
"Nope. I left school with out telling anyone."
"Oh good, you've fueled the fire, not a smart move."
"I didn't care when I left, I was pissed at ChiChi and Piccolo for their accusations." Said Vega as Rosnia came out of the bathroom.
"Let's go into town for a little while and talk about this more."
"Alright." said Vega, "but you know how the rest of the kingdom is when I'm there, so no bitching about it."
"Yea, I know." sighed Rosnia
Back on Earth, Goku was standing in front of ChiChi's door with some flowers in his hand. He knocked on the door and she opened the door with a frown on her face.
"What do you want?" she snapped.
"Can I come in?" asked Goku.
"Sure, whatever." She said as she walked away from the door.
"ChiChi, are you still mad about yesterday?"
"Yes, I am and I'm very hurt." Said ChiChi as she was moving about the room cleaning it, not looking at Goku one bit.
"Is Vega here?" asked Goku.
"No, your girlfriend isn't here. I don't know where she is and I don't care either. Are those for her?" asked ChiChi pointing to the flowers.
"NO, they are for you." Said Goku handing them to her.
"You think you can waltz in here with flowers and everything is forgiven?" snapped ChiChi.
"ChiChi, nothing is going on with Vega and I. Why on earth would you think that?"
"I don't know Goku, is it because you and she were gone for well over 12 hours yesterday. I think we have a winning answer." Snapped ChiChi.
"ChiChi, nothing is going on."
"Then tell me what I'm supposed to think Goku. Because I don't know."
"ChiChi, you're getting mad over nothing. There is nothing going on. I went to train yesterday, that's all."
"Yea, train, right."
"Please, ChiChi, you know I love you, I've loved you for 4 years now, do you think that is ever going to change?" ChiChi continued to move about the room and clean so she wouldn't have to pay attention to Goku, "ChiChi, will you sit down and listen to me?" ChiChi sighed and looked at him. She sat down on the make shift couch.
"What?" she snapped. Goku kneeled down in front of her and handed her the flowers.
"Look ChiChi, Vega didn't want me to tell anyone this, because she's afraid of it getting back to Vegeta. So, what I'm about to tell you, you can't say to anyone. I was with Vega yesterday..."
"I knew it!" yelled ChiChi.
"But, it's nothing like that. She needed help with her training, so I offered to help. She doesn't want anyone to know about this, so you've got to keep it a secret." Goku looked at her seriously.
"Why would she need your help?" questioned ChiChi.
"Because she's not getting anywhere in her Combat Class. Our instructor says that she's got slow reflexes and because of that she can't beat Vegeta." sighed Goku, "So when our instructor began training her reflexes, she accidentally knocked him out. Since she can't beat Vegeta, it's pointless to have him help her, so I offered." ChiChi looked at him for a moment then broke into tears. Goku wrapped his arms around her, "What's wrong?" he asked unsure of why he was crying.
"I'm so sorry, Goku." Sobbed ChiChi.
"For what?"
"Not believing you. I didn't really want to believe it, because you're always honest with me."
"But ChiChi, I did lie to you, I'm the one who should be sorry." Said Goku. ChiChi sat up and dried her eyes.
"Look, it doesn't matter anymore. You told me the truth." ChiChi leaned over and sweetly kissed her boyfriend.
"Well, look, didn't we have plans to do something yesterday?" said Goku.
"Yea."
"Well come on then, let's go. We don't have much time." Smiled Goku as he picked up ChiChi hero style and kissed her sweetly.
"Yea, we have shopping to do." Smiled ChiChi.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ChiChi glared at Vega, who was visibly upset from her spat with Piccolo.
"So where were you can Goku today?" seethed ChiChi.
"Nowhere." Vega mumbled.
"Oh, don't give me that crap, Vega! You two have been gone all day. I want to know where you've been."
"I don't need this right now ChiChi, and who says I was even with Kakarrot?" Vega shot back.
"What do you want my boyfriend for? You have your own." Growled ChiChi.
"What?!" snapped Vega, "You think I would do something like that? Jeez, ChiChi, give me some respect."
"Well it seems to me that you two have been getting awful chummy lately, and I want to know why!" ChiChi yelled back.
"I haven't been doing anything with Kakarrot!" Vega yelled.
"Stop lying to me, you bitch." ChiChi yelled back.
"Excuse me?" Vega yelled back.
"You heard me!"
"WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM?" shrieked Vega.
"My problem is that someone I considered a good friend, is having an affair with my boyfriend." Yelled ChiChi.
"I'm so out of here. I don't need this crap from you." Huffed Vega as she stuffed her armor and some clothes into a bag.
"That's right, run away. Doesn't want to deal with the problem at hand, so she just leaves." Smirked ChiChi. Vega, who was opening the door to leave, turned to face her.
"I'm leaving because if I stay here, I'll end up hurting you and I don't want to do that." Said Vega as she slammed the door. Vega walked down to the boy's room and wrote a note on their dry erase board.
'I'm gone, V.' was all that she wrote. She then proceeded to leave the building. She used her telepathic bond with her father to tell him she wanted a ship to come pick her up. After she contacted her father, she flew out to the mountains to wait for the ship. Two hours later, the ship arrived and she left.
Meanwhile, Goku and Piccolo were having a similar situation. Piccolo walked into the dorm and growled at Goku who as asleep.
"Goku, wake up." growled Piccolo. When Goku didn't wake up, Piccolo gave him a smack to wake him up.
"What do you want?" mumbled Goku.
"Where the hell were you with Vega today?" Piccolo said coldly.
"I wasn't with Vega today." Grumbled Goku.
"Goku, wake up and talk to me." Goku lazily sat up.
"Piccolo, I wasn't with Vega today. What's up with you and ChiChi? She thinks I was with Vega today too. I went home to train in the mountains and when I didn't make any headway, I went home to train with my dad." Said Goku.
"Both ChiChi and I noticed that you two were gone when we woke up this morning, and that you two returned around basically the same time, what do you think that leads us to believe?" snapped Piccolo, "Look, I just want the truth from you. You're my best friend, Goku, and I think I deserve the truth. Do you and Vega have something going on behind our backs?"
"WHAT!" shrieked Goku, "God, NO! I'm with ChiChi, remember. Why would I ever do something like that?"
"I don't know what to think. Vega has been acting awful strange all week, and then with today, I just don't know." Sighed Piccolo.

"Yea, she's probably really mad at Vega, too." Said Piccolo; "I was kind of short with her too. I'm probably going to have to do the ass kissers dance tomorrow."
"I'm going back to sleep now." Chuckled Goku.
"Talk to ya in the morning." Said Piccolo as he got ready for bed himself.
It was close to 5am when Vega's ship landed on Vegetasei. King Vegeta was waiting on the landing dock when she landed. Everyone who was on the landing dock dropped to their knees when she exited her ship.
"Thank you. You all may rise." She said as she walked up to her father and gave him a hug. She was practically crying when she saw him.
"So are you going to tell me what happened that you had to wake me up in the middle of the night to send a ship to pick you up?" asked the King.
"In a little while, Daddy." Sighed Vega, "I need a shower and I want to go talk to Rosnia. I haven't seen her in ages."
"Ok, Princess." Vega and her father left the hanger and walked back into the main part of the castle.
"So how is school going?" he asked.
"It's alright. Vegeta got moved into a higher level of Combat Training."
"Good, Good." Smiled the King, "and what about you?"
"Nope. My reflexes are too slow. I'm working on it though."
"We will fight later, so I can see your progress." Said the King.
"Ok, Daddy. Tell the cooks I want breakfast brought to my room so I can eat while I get ready." Said Vega; "It feels so good to be home, even if it's only for a night."
"It's nice to have you here." Said the King; "Something is different about you though."
"What?" said Vega. The King looked at her for a couple of seconds then he realized what it was.
"You're in the bonding process, aren't you?"
"Daddy, I'll talk to you about that later. For now, don't worry about it. I want to talk to Rosnia about it first." Smiled Vega.
"Alright, but when you get back from your meeting with Rosnia, come see me. I have some diplomatic matters I want you to look over."
"Daddy!" whined Vega; her father shot her a glare, "Fine."
"Good, now go on." Said the King. Vega kissed her father on the cheek and walked into her room and shut the door. She looked around her room and sighed.
"Man I missed my room." She smiled and ran and jumped on her bed. She laid on her bed for a few minutes before she sat up and opened her bag. She pulled out her armor and her change of clothes. She looked at them for a few moments. She then got up and walked over to her closet and opened it. She pulled out her royal attire and laid it on the bed.
"I'm wearing this." Smiled Vega as she made way into the shower.

"Princess!" smiled Galia as she dropped to her knees and bowed. Vega laughed.
"Miss Galia, how many times have I told you, you don't have to do that." Said Vega.
"Many I'm sure." Smiled Galia as she stood back up and gave Vega a hug, "How have you been, child?"
"I'm good. I'm just home for the day, because I missed Rosnia and I wanted to talk to her."
"Oh, she'll be excited. She's been trying to get the nerve to as your father if she could take a ship to earth to visit you, but she's still afraid of him." Laughed Galia.
"She shouldn't be afraid. My dad likes her." Said Vega. Galia took a few seconds to look at her.
"Something's different about you; are you bonding to someone?" smiled Galia, "Who's the lucky boy?"
"He's from Namek." Said Vega with a small smile.
"A Namek, does your father know?"
"Not yet, I'm going to talk to him tonight about it, but I want to talk to Rosnia first."
"Well go on up, she's still asleep, but I'm sure she won't mind you waking her." Said Galia.
"Ok." Said Vega as she went upstairs to her friend room. She slowly opened the door and walked into her friend's room. Rosnia didn't even hear her come in. Vega laughed to herself and then jumped on Rosnia's bed, scaring her half to death.
"AAAHHHH!" shrieked Rosnia and she bolted up in bed. Vega just laughed. It took Rosnia a moment to collect herself before she realized who was there, "Holy shit, Vega!" she shrieked before giving her best friend a hug.
"Man, I missed you." Smiled Vega.
"Me too. How's school going? Is earth fun? Any good parties? Any cute guys? Girl I want details!" giggled Rosnia.
"Ok, Earth is alright. Most of the people who inhabit that planet are really narrow minded, but there are a select few that aren't. I haven't been to any parties yet, but I go out to some dance clubs with my roommates every now and then." Smiled Vega.
"What about the guys, are they cute?"
"Not really. I do kind of have a boy friend though, which is kind of the reason I'm here." Said Vega.
"What's wrong?" said Rosnia giving her a stern look.
"How do you know something is wrong?"
"Because you always come to me when you have boy problems."
"Well, you're the only one I know who found their mate when they were 16."
"Hey, just because I happened to bond to Jerrk quickly, doesn't mean we have a perfect relationship."
"I'm still surprised you're not barefoot and pregnant yet."
"We've decided to wait a little while before we start living together. I just don't feel right leaving mom alone, especially since dad died."
"I understand. Jerrk can always come here to live with you, ya know." smiled Vega.
"I know, Jerrk and I are discussing our options. But, enough about me, I want to hear about your man." Smiled Rosnia.
"Ok, his name is Piccolo." Said Vega.
"Piccolo?"
"Yea, he's from Namek."
"A Namekian?" Rosnia said almost shocked.
"Yea, he's really sweet. He treats me better than any of the guys here did. He doesn't treat me like property, he doesn't treat me like a princess either. He's just a really great guy." Smiled Vega.
"So what's the problem?"
"Me."
"What about you?"
"Well, here's the story. Vegeta got moved to a higher-class level in Combat Training. Apparently, my reflexes are too slow. But, anyhow, Vegeta's roommate is Kakarrot, you know Bardock's son."
"I vaguely remember him, but ok."
"Anyhow, Kakarrot is stronger and better than Vegeta, believe it or not. So, after a bunch of stuff happened, Kakarrot offered to help me build up my reflexes.

"Did you tell him?"
"No, I told him that I got a call from dad and that I went home for the day with Vegeta. Well, that little fib fell through, because they had talked to Vegeta, who went to his "girlfriends" house for the weekend, a little while before I came home." Sighed Vega.
"Vegeta HAS A GIRLFRIEND!!!" laughed Rosnia.
"Yea, I'll tell you about that later."
"Who would have guessed?" Rosnia laughed some more.
"ANYhow, Piccolo knew I was lying to him so he called me on it, and he thinks I'm cheating on him with Kakarrot. But, then on top of that, Kakarrot's girlfriend thinks the same thing and she's all pissed at me. Kakarrot and Vegeta's girlfriends are my roommates, by the way."
"So, let me see, if I got this straight. Piccolo thinks you're cheating on him with Kakarrot. Kakarrot's girlfriend thinks he's cheating on her with you. And all you two were doing were training in the mountains."
"Yea, I'm still not going to tell them what is going on, but I don't want them to think we're cheating on them either. I really like Piccolo and I don't want to hurt him." Said Vega.
"I can tell you really like him, because you've starting bonding to him." Smiled Rosnia
"Yea, I know." said Vega, "I don't know how my dad's going to take it. Probably better than he will to Vegeta's."
"Vegeta's starting bonding too?" said Rosnia.
"No, they're not officially going out, but they will eventually."
"Ok, anyhow, when are you planing on telling them you've been getting help from Kakarrot?"
"Probably after Parents weekend, my Combat instructor has informed me that I am going to fight Vegeta in an exhibition that weekend. I want to kick his ass so bad I can taste it." Smiled Vega.
"You need to reassure him that you're only interested in him and that you'll tell him what's going on when you're ready. He's got to understand that."
"I know, and you'd think he would, but he was so mad at me yesterday. I don't know if he even wants to talk to me." sighed Vega. Rosnia, who was still in her pajama's, got of her bed and walked into her bathroom to change.
"I'm gonna try and give this to you from a male perspective." Said Rosnia from inside the bathroom, "Piccolo is a man and men are stupid. No matter what you do, he's going to be retarded about it, so you really shouldn't worry."
"I know, but it was just upsetting that he didn't trust me."
"Does anyone know you're here?" asked Rosnia.
"Nope. I left school with out telling anyone."
"Oh good, you've fueled the fire, not a smart move."
"I didn't care when I left, I was pissed at ChiChi and Piccolo for their accusations." Said Vega as Rosnia came out of the bathroom.
"Let's go into town for a little while and talk about this more."
"Alright." said Vega, "but you know how the rest of the kingdom is when I'm there, so no bitching about it."
"Yea, I know." sighed Rosnia
Back on Earth, Goku was standing in front of ChiChi's door with some flowers in his hand. He knocked on the door and she opened the door with a frown on her face.
"What do you want?" she snapped.
"Can I come in?" asked Goku.
"Sure, whatever." She said as she walked away from the door.
"ChiChi, are you still mad about yesterday?"
"Yes, I am and I'm very hurt." Said ChiChi as she was moving about the room cleaning it, not looking at Goku one bit.
"Is Vega here?" asked Goku.
"No, your girlfriend isn't here. I don't know where she is and I don't care either. Are those for her?" asked ChiChi pointing to the flowers.
"NO, they are for you." Said Goku handing them to her.
"You think you can waltz in here with flowers and everything is forgiven?" snapped ChiChi.
"ChiChi, nothing is going on with Vega and I. Why on earth would you think that?"
"I don't know Goku, is it because you and she were gone for well over 12 hours yesterday. I think we have a winning answer." Snapped ChiChi.
"ChiChi, nothing is going on."
"Then tell me what I'm supposed to think Goku. Because I don't know."
"ChiChi, you're getting mad over nothing. There is nothing going on. I went to train yesterday, that's all."
"Yea, train, right."
"Please, ChiChi, you know I love you, I've loved you for 4 years now, do you think that is ever going to change?" ChiChi continued to move about the room and clean so she wouldn't have to pay attention to Goku, "ChiChi, will you sit down and listen to me?" ChiChi sighed and looked at him. She sat down on the make shift couch.
"What?" she snapped. Goku kneeled down in front of her and handed her the flowers.
"Look ChiChi, Vega didn't want me to tell anyone this, because she's afraid of it getting back to Vegeta. So, what I'm about to tell you, you can't say to anyone. I was with Vega yesterday..."
"I knew it!" yelled ChiChi.
"But, it's nothing like that. She needed help with her training, so I offered to help. She doesn't want anyone to know about this, so you've got to keep it a secret." Goku looked at her seriously.
"Why would she need your help?" questioned ChiChi.
"Because she's not getting anywhere in her Combat Class. Our instructor says that she's got slow reflexes and because of that she can't beat Vegeta." sighed Goku, "So when our instructor began training her reflexes, she accidentally knocked him out. Since she can't beat Vegeta, it's pointless to have him help her, so I offered." ChiChi looked at him for a moment then broke into tears. Goku wrapped his arms around her, "What's wrong?" he asked unsure of why he was crying.
"I'm so sorry, Goku." Sobbed ChiChi.
"For what?"
"Not believing you. I didn't really want to believe it, because you're always honest with me."
"But ChiChi, I did lie to you, I'm the one who should be sorry." Said Goku. ChiChi sat up and dried her eyes.
"Look, it doesn't matter anymore. You told me the truth." ChiChi leaned over and sweetly kissed her boyfriend.
"Well, look, didn't we have plans to do something yesterday?" said Goku.
"Yea."
"Well come on then, let's go. We don't have much time." Smiled Goku as he picked up ChiChi hero style and kissed her sweetly.
"Yea, we have shopping to do." Smiled ChiChi.
