Chapter 11
Chapter Name: Hang Over

"Vegeta..."

Vegeta was laying Bulma down in her bed when she regained some consciousness and murmured his name. He ignored her and lifted the covers up to her chin. As he was going to walk out of her room, Bulma opened her eyes half way to look at his back.

"Please don't leave again.."

He stood at her door for a split second before leaving her room, closing the door behind him.
Bulma felt her throat constrict with emotion, she feared that he would leave again. She couldn't bear to not see or hear him again.

The alcohol was getting to her again. Her eyelids shut closed on their own as she drifted off to a drunken sleep.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Next Morning...about 10am..

Bulma opened her eyes and instantly regretted it as she snapped them shut again. The sunlight coming in through her window was blinding. The flash of brightness instantly gave her a huge painful headache.

"Ugh..." she moaned as she flung one arm over her eyes. It feels like her head is going to EXPLODE! Bulma cracked one eye open slowly and groaned at the brightness of everything. She hauled herself out of bed and stumbled into the shower, leaving the lights off. Its bright enough as it is!

Bulma finished showering, changing, brushing her teeth and went down to the kitchen slowly, moving too fast was still too much for her head. Every single fast movement she made was agonizing.

She shuffled into the kitchen to find her mom putting out a cup of coffee and some scrambled eggs. "Morning Bulma! I heard your shower running so I got your breakfast ready."

"Thanks mom" she mumbled as she slid into the chair and downed half the coffee.
"Bulma?"

Bulma turned her head around, forgeting to do it slowly. The room spun and the lights attacked her head. Bulma buried her face into her hands, welcoming the darkness. "What???" she said into her palms.

"Bulma, you drank last night didn't you? Now, how many times did I warn you never to drink too much since you have no experience drinking?" came her fathers loving voice.

"Ugh...Dad, need you remind me!?" she growled.

Dr. Briefs laughed as he walked to stand next to Bulma's mom. "Just to tell you dear, Vegeta is back in the damn gravity room, in a few days he should be out and roaring for food." he said to Mrs. Briefs.

Mrs. Briefs smiled and her face brightend up. "Really!? Oh!!!! I need to go shopping!!!" She said grabbing her purse and zipping out the door.

Bulma was on her 2nd cup of coffee and 5th bite of eggs when she heard her dad say that. She choked.

Dr. Briefs rolled his eyes and wacked her on the back.

"Ah...thanks dad." she panted.

"Bulma, I know you are excited but you don't need to overreact. I don't see anything good, Vegeta's gonna make me work overtime again fixing that damn gravity room." he pouted.

Bulma smiled. He stayed! ...But was it for the training or was it for me?

4 days later.....

Bulma was getting ready to leave the ground of C.C. to go cruise around when she saw Vegeta finally come walking out into the sunlight from the gravity room. Mrs. Briefs ran out the front door to greet him and ushered him inside to undoubtly huge amounts of food cooked just waiting for him.

Bulma faintly smiled. Yep things were back to normal...
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
2 hours later...

Bulma had finishedvisiting friends and was driving home. But her mind wasn't on the road. Her whole mind was on Vegeta. She stopped at a red light.

hmm...I wonder if Vegeta is resting right now... I mean theres no reason to train so hard if he's a SSJ now rite? Right. But....why did he stay? Did he really stay because I asked him to? Ugh I can't believe I got drunk for real that day. I'm gonna kill Goku and Chi Chi next time I see them..

The light turned green but Bulma didn't notice.

Hmm...my days are SO boring! Theres nothing to do anywhere! ...dad says that I should be grateful to feel idle right. He says in a few more years, when I am president of Capsule Corp, I won't get to feel bored during the day at all. ~sigh~ but I'm BORED!!

BEEP BEEP BEEEP!! BEEEEP!! HONK HONK HONK!!! BEEP!

A series of yelling and beeping went on behind her.

"WHAT THE FUCK?!" she yelled. Then she noticed that the light was green.

She quickly accelerated and was driving down the street again. She went passed two STOP signs, not even noticing them, because she was so deep in her thoughts.

Suddenly, BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!!! Bulma snapped back to reality and glanced to the right, a car, too late to stop completely was rushing towards her.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!" she screamed. Instinct made her step on the brakes, the car went screeching.

Bulma quickly let go off the brakes and floored the car. Hoping to avoid the accident in time.

BAAANG! No such luck. The front of the other car smashed into the back half of Bulma's car. Her head snapped forward and hit the wheel. And then even though Bulma luckily was wearing her seatbelt but the impact threw her against the drivers door anyway. Her eyes were squeezed shut and her wrists were white from clutching the steering wheels tightly. Her forehead had banged hard against the glass, making the glass crack a little.

Her left elbow had also banged against the door and it felt like her bones shattered or something. Bulma moaned in pain as she slumped in her seat, leaning on the steering wheel.

Everything hurt. She slowly fumbled with the seatbelt and unclasped it. She opened the drivers door and fell out onto the ground in a heap. She felt the warm concrete surface below her as she layed there, unable to move. The pain! Mostly her left elbow and her head!

"Miss! Miss! Are you alright?"

"Lady! Lady!"

"SOMEONE CALL 911!"

A barrage of voices attacked her. Making the pain in her head even worse.

Her legs feel alright though...She struggled right herself and could only muster the strength to be on her hands and knees.

"LET HER HAVE SOME AIR! MOVE AWAY!" a female screeched.

High heels appeared in her vision as Bulma tried to stay conscious.

A tall brunette woman kneeled down and supported Bulma to stand up.
"Now Miss., where do you live and tell me your name."

"C..-Ca-Caps-..Co-.." Bulma struggled to get the words out but everything was so far away to her.

"What miss?" The lady put her ear down to Bulma's mouth so she can hear clearer.

"C-Ca...Capsu-...C..o.." Bulma squeezed out.

"I think she said she lives in Capsule Corporation!" the lady yelled out.

"What?!" the crowd exclaimed.

"Ok, now you name. We can get your home. C.C. has a medical wing doesn't it."

"B...Bulm...Brie...fs.."

The lady gasped. "ITS BULMA BRIEFS! COME ON! SOMEONE HELP ME GET HER TO CAPSULE CORPS!"

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
half hour later...At Capsule Corps...

DIIIING! DIIIING! DIIING DIIING DIIIIING DIIIIIING!!

Vegeta was sitting in a chair in the living room when the doorbell was pressed rapidly. He opened one eye and growled in irritation.

"Which baka is that !? I'll make sure to blow him to fucking bits!" he yelled.

Mrs. Briefs yelled from somewhere in the back of the house. "Vegeta dear! Can you please get the door? I need to finish putting out the laundry!"

Vegeta stood up annoyed and went to the door.

DIING DIING DIIIING DIIIIING!!

He opened the door and roared "What!?" he grinded out.

Then he saw it was a tall brunette with a unconscious bleeding injured Bulma slumped against her.

"What the hell?" he questioned.
