Ease My Pain
.Chapter 8
**Unfortunately this is the end of the story. I liked writing it, really. But seriously it took me over 5 months to update it. THAT'S A LONG TIME!!!!! I'm sorry for the huge wait but just don't ask why!**
Bulma threw her keys on the table. She was filled with frustration, confusion, and anger. This was all aimed at Vegeta and she couldn't wait to give him a piece of her mind. He had absolutely no reason to walk out and leave. She didn't even know why he was so angry, but she could bet it was something stupid. She sat down on the couch and silently cursed her luck and her husband. She turned the television on tried to pay attention to the current weather but her vision was blocked by a dark shadow. She looked up and saw Vegeta looking down at her with a frown plastered on his face. Now it was time to unleash the mighty, angry Bulma.
"If you don't mind, I'm trying to watch a little T.V."
"Well I do mind because there's not a scrap of food to eat in this whole damn place."
"Well I don't really care." Bulma said as she still stared at the half- blocked T.V.
She heard a low growl and a sudden spark as the television shut off by a tiny ki blast.
"Why did you do that, Vegeta!?"
"Because I'm hungry and when I'm hungry you're supposed to feed me."
"I'm not supposed to do anything Vegeta and it's your fault you're hungry. If you would've stayed you would have had some food."
"I did not want to stay there and watch you and that fool Kakarrot play around like brats."
"Ohhh, so that's what this is about. You're jealous." Bulma stated simply with a smug grin plastered on her face as she stood up to face Vegeta.
"Well I'd like you to know that I have so much fun with Goku." She slid past him and began walking up the stairs. "He's so sweet and handsome and he has a great sense of humor. If he hadn't promised Chi-Chi to marry her I would've taken him along time ago. But nooo..., I'm stuck with a monkey!" Bulma yelled as she slammed her door shut.
Vegeta had to hold back the temptation to strangle her as he walked out the back door.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Dr. Briefs shook Bulma gently. She moaned and sat up.
"Daddy what are you doing in here. It's two in the morning."
I know dear but I have some disturbing news. Vegeta has taken off into outer space.
"What!?! Why didn't you stop him?"
"I tried to dear but he didn't listen. He just told me that he'd be back when the spaceship ran out of fuel and for you to have fun with some kind of carrot."
Bulma groaned and callapsed onto her bed. "How long will it take for the fuel to run out?"
"According to my calculations it should take about a year."
"A YEAR!! What have I done?"
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Small, pleasant conversations could be heard all around the rectangular table. Bulma had just given her presentation to the heads of top companies from all over the world and her heart was slowly beginning to return to its normal pace. She was pleases with her presentation and couldn't wait to celebrate with her father. She looked around at all the professional faces and her gaze met with another. A handsome man with green eyes smiled and winked at her as she blushed and looked away.
After the meeting Bulma was conversating with her father about how well she had done. They were in the middle of talking about improvements when a certain handsome man came to her.
"Hello there, Dr. Briefs. I don't believe I've met you're daughter."
"No, you haven't. Bulma I'd like to introduce you to Mr. Burkleau. He's a friend of mine."
"Hello there Bulma. How are you?" He asked as he reached for hand and kissed it.
"I'm fine, and you?"
"My day just got better."
Bulma's heart melted. She hadn't felt like that in years.
"I was just wondering if you would like to have coffee with me this weekend."
"I'd love to." Bulma said with a smile.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* They sat at the coffee having small, mostly useless conversations but they were both having an excellent evening until he brought up an unfortanute question.
"So do you have a husband or boyfriend I should know about."
Bulma's smile faded. "Actually I sort of do."
"Sort of?"
"Well there's this uh..person that I have a son with."
"Well I've dated women with children before. I like children."
"Yeah but I'm kind of seeing that person still."
"I'm afraid I don't understand."
Bulma looked out at the snow covered ground outside the café.
"Neither do I."
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~*
Bulma had decided to walk home that night. It was cold but the night was still beautiful. The snow crunched under the moonlit snow as she walked through a small park. It seemed that there were couples everywhere. One was playing in the snow, others were kissing under the moonlight. She wished so much that her life could be like that but she knew it couldn't. It had been about 7 months since Vegeta had left and she truly started to miss him. The rest of the night with Mr. Burkleau had been awkward so she was glad to be going home. Her home came into view and she could only imagine the warmth from the glowing lights. She stepped inside to find a shocking sight. Vegeta was sitting at the table stuffing his face while her mother smiled happily at him. When she closed the door they both looked at her. Bulma slowly approached them making sure that what she was seeing was real. Indeed it was. Vegeta was looking at her with an annoyed look on his face. Then he smirked.
"What's the problem woman? Monkey got you're tongue?"
He didn't forget the last thing she said to him before he left. She looked away and he returned to his food. She slowly walked towards her room, still in shock from what just went on. She wanted to hug and kiss him but she knew he probably wouldn't have excepted it in front of her mother. She changed into a pair of black sweat pants and a plain white tank top that hugged her form perfectly. She went downstairs praying that he was still down there. Her prayers weren't answered as she discovered only her mom washing dishes.
"Hey mom, where did Vegeta go?"
"He went to train, dear. Is there something you needed?"
"No. But it would be nice to talk to him since I haven't seen him in seven months." Bulma mumbled under her breath.
She stomped towards Trunks' room to see if he was still sleeping. She smiled at his cute form and wondered how a monster like Vegeta could help create such an angel. She went inside her room and looked out the small window. The gravity room windows were frozen but she could see the lights of the gravity room and Vegeta's ki. She pulled up a chair and decided that she would wait for him. He couldn't avoid her forever.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Woman.wake up!"
Bulma was awoken by a soothing voice and slight shakings. She saw Vegeta and was convinced she was dreaming. Vegeta would never be that gentle. He probably would yell then drag her into bed.
"Woman!" He yelled.
Bulma jumped up. "WHAT!"
"Why in the hell did you sleep with the window open, woman?"
"Huh?"
"You heard me! Now wake up."
"Vegeta?" Her vision cleared as she looked up at him with sleepy eyes. She remembered that she had opened the window because she thought she could stay awake better. It was then she realized how cold it was. She got up and tried to close it but it was frozen. She tried again but it wouldn't budge. Suddenly a large, warm hand covered her own and the window slammed shut. Vegeta pulled his hand away and looked down at her.
"Weakling."
Bulma frowned and looked at him.
"Well, it's your fault. What are you doing back so soon, anyway?"
"I got bored in space."
"Bored?! You liar, Vegeta. You know you missed me."
"Of course not."
Bulma couldn't take it anymore. She ran to his arms and hugged him tightly.
"Well I've missed you.
She tore away from him and kissed him. She was surprised when he actually kissed her back. It had been too long. Their lips moved in perfect rhythm and her stomach fluttered when he began to gently suck on her bottom lip. She really missed him. They finally tore apart and Bulma looked up at him again.
"I'm sorry, Vegeta."
"For what, woman?"
"I don't know but could you please never do that again."
"As long as you never speak to Kakarrot."
Bulma lauphed. "Even if I do, I know you'll be here, Vegeta. You'll always be here to ease my pain."
