I remember the day I first met her. She had a certain charm that I could not resist. However, times surely have changed. Now that I sit here seeing her with Vegeta's baby, which I know Vegeta is ungrateful for, i feel my stomach turn into knots, as I think back to past memories.
I remembered when we first started dating, way back when. Goku was still a child, and we just finished collecting the dragon balls, only for Oolong to get his wish for the softest underwear in the world. Anyway, we parted our ways, and Bulma decided to come with me and Puar.
We traveled around for a bit, mindlessly chatting. Luckily I wasn't afraid of her anymore, I guess that was because she liked me. I was so happy then. To finally find some one who was smart, beautifully, and very caring who happened to find me attractive. All was going great for the first couple of months.
I took her out on several dates, all ended up being her choice. At first, I paid no attention to it, for it didn't matter to me as long as we were together. We usually went to a fancy diner, a few concerts, or the county fair when it as in town.
The fair only came once a year. She came up to me joyfully and stated that she wanted to go to the fair. I did too, so I complained none. The weather was warm, a little to warm for me, I felt sticky from the heat of the sun beating down. Puar was a bit overheated for she just laid grogely on my shoulder all day when we were not on a ride or playing a game.
I have done everything right. I bought her ice cream and won her prizes that she wanted, and took her on every ride she wanted to go on. I needed a little break, I had to make a potty break, so I left her alone for only a short while. Upon returning, I did not see her where she said she'd meet me, which was right outside the restrooms. I paned the general area searching for my love. I spotted her. She stood over by the Ring the Bell game, standing next to this buff guy. As I started to walk over to her, I realized that she was flirting with this dude. She was giggling at his stupid joked and acting all ditsy like she used to do with me. I stood there in my stupor trying to think of what I should do next.
Puar floated off my shoulder and flew in front of my face to snap me out of it. " Yamcha, I don't think Bulma appreciates you. " Puar told me. "You have been so nice to her and she doesn't return the favor"
"That's not true Puar," I stated back not admitting the truth.
"Why is she flirting with some one else then?" Puar said reminding me why we were having the conversation. My blue-haired beauty still stood there flirting with that muscle-man jerk. I gave out a sigh as I started to walk over to her. " Maybe I am just getting the wrong I idea Puar. I am sure she has a logical answer for this." Puar just shook her head and rested on my shoulder again.
I still remember the look in Bulma's eyes when she spotted me. There was a look of shock, the horror of a child caught doing something they knew they should not have been doing. She quickly waved bye with her back turned towards me, then ran up to me.
" Hey Yamcha," she said. " You took longer then I thought."
"I was only gone for, like 3 minutes" I said to her.
" Well, you shouldn't leave me waiting like that!" Bulma all but shouted at me. " Well,I am getting tired of this fair! Yamcha, I want to go home."
" ok, sure." I replied. " um... Hey Bulma? What were you doing with that guy over there?" I managed to ask only because Puar would have clawed my shoulder off if I didn't.
" I was just talking to him, what else would you think I'd be doing?"
Once again, Puar found that kneading my shoulder sounded like a good idea. " Ouch..." I flicked Puar off my shoulder. "You seemed to be doing more then that Honey." I finally muttered out.
" Yamcha!!" She shouted loud enough to make a few heads turn to look at her. " He was a friend from High school. Why would you get the crazy Idea of me flirting with him? That is ridiculous!"
" He didn't say that you were flirting with him.." Puar muttered out. " So what makes you think that he was accusing you of that?"
I giggled to myself,Puar was very clever at times.
" OOoohhh... I WASN"T FLIRTING WITH HIM!!!!!!! How can you say that Puar? You know I love Yamcha!" She said as she batted her eyes at me ever so cutely that made me forget my past accusations.
" You want to stop for some food before you go home Bulma? I said to her as I kissed her cheek.
" Sure, sounds good to me." Bulma said as she clung on my arm. Puar just flew behind me. I took her to a little diner that was my favorite. It wasn't anything fancy, but it was special to me. I always liked the older diners. They had a certain atmosphere to them that I liked.
" We are eating here?" Bulma asked, looking a bit disappointed. Her facial expression changed when she saw me looking at her.
" Yeah, this place has really good food," I said. " and I like this place."
" Me too," Puar chimed in.
"Ok, lets get some food!" Bulma said.
"Um.. Bulma?"
" Yes Yamcha?" She replied as she turned her head to look at me.
" Save me and Puar a seat, I'll be right back in ok?"
"Um,, sure." She said as she walked in.
"Where are you going Yamcha?" Puar asked me.
"Look over there."I said as I pointed to a ticket booth. "My favorite baseball team is playing. I am going to go buy three tickets Puar,. One for you, one for me and one for Bulma. I am going to go take her out to something I want to do. I think she would enjoy a baseball game,don't you?"
" Yes!" Puar said. " I love baseball games, I hope she does too!" I then bought the tickets, and walked back to the diner. I put the tickets in my pocket so they would be a surprise. Puar happily landed on my shoulder and we went inside.
Bulma waved us down, and we took our seats in the booth. I sat across from her and Puar jumped off my shoulder and sat on the table.
" Where did you go?" Bulma asked me looking a bit mad.
I didn't want to ruin the surprise. " I... uh... thought I saw an advertisement that caught my eye over across the street."
" What kind of advertisement?" Bulma said getting madder by the second.
"It was nothing, really. Turned out to be something else." I said, hoping she would buy it for the time being. I didn't like lying to her, but I had a just cause.
" I see how it is Yamcha." Bulma said as she crossed her arms. " I know what you were really doing."
"Really? You found me out then... but why are you so mad?"
"Because those girls over there had caught your attention!!" She yelled as she pointed to a bunch of young girls that happened to be standing by the booth. Yamcha remembered them,they said hello to him, and a bunch of mindless chit chat about the game as he was buying the tickets.
I looked back at Bulma. " I went over there to buy some baseball tickets for us. It was going to be a surprise. My favorite team is in town, and I really want to watch the game. " I took out the tickets to show her. " I bought a ticket for Puar, you,and myself. I was going to take you out to the ball game, as a surprise."
"Sure you were Yamcha!! I saw you over there grinning like mad because those ugly babes were flirting with you!" Bulma once again attracted many people's attention with her yelling.
"Bulma, Yamcha is telling the truth! He just went over to buy some tickets." Puar said, who was getting slightly agitated herself.
" Well,I don't like baseball! It was so selfish of you to force me into going!" Bulma shouted as she jumped up from her booth.
" Bulma, sweaty, where are you going?" I said as I stood up too.
" I am leaving! I am so sick of you always flirting with other women! I am going home, I can get my own ride!" With that said, she ran out the door.
"Oh man Puar, she is really mad at me."
" Yamcha, I don't think you done anything wrong." Puar landed on my shoulder and tried to comfort me. " Look, she is always such a controlling bitch. I don't think she is right for you."
"Puar,she is not a bitch, I should have asked her if she liked baseball I guess." I sighed. Bulma was really fuming at me. I felt horrible, I didn't think she would get so mad over an honest mistake. I took a mental note not to take her to a baseball game again. " Well,now I have an extra ticket. Maybe Goku or Krillon would like to go. I'll ask them later. Hey Puar, I kinda lost my appetite, you want to just go home?"
" Sure Yamcha. Let's go." Puar said as we left the diner and went back to my house, where Puar and I chatted on how I could get Bulma not mad at me anymore.
