The Morning After

By the time the next morning rolled around all the sounds that had been heard the night before had completely faded out, besides two hushed voices in the hallway.

" Here." Yamcha said, handing Vegeta five hundred dollars. " We all heard you win last night."

"Ha yeah well you could have won if you weren't busy fooling around with my ex-girlfriend." Vegeta sneered. " and that didn't sound like it went all that well anyway."

" Your such a bastard Vegeta." Yamcha whined.

" Yeah whatever." Vegeta snorted, turning around and walking back into his room and closing the door.

Bulma yawned and stretched as she turned over and bumped into a very much awake Vegeta. She frowned as memories of the night before began to cloud her mind again. It wasn't that she hadn't wanted to go any further with him, it was just that she had never gone very far with a guy before and the things that happened last night, scared her.

" Good morning." Bulma yawned again, feeling very uncomfortable with him all of the sudden." I should go pack."
" Why? its only six. in the morning" Vegeta grumbled. " Besides I like you where you are again." Vegeta told her, wrapping his arms around her waist again.

" U m.....I think I had better get packed." Bulma said, trying to move from her spot.

" Hmm, someone is in a hurry." Vegeta said lowly, a smirk appearing on his face.

" Only to get away from you." Bulma shot back, her patience beginning to wear thin with him.

" Are you nervous? " Vegeta asked, slipping his hand up her night gown, which rewarded him with a gasp. "Why so nervous now? Wouldn't have anything to do with last night would it?"
" Let me go now." Bulma whispered, her voice low.

" Fine." Vegeta growled, letting her go and rising from the bed. Bulma sighed as she turned onto her side and closed her eyes. " Why does he have to tease me like this? God he's the first guy I've really had an interest in since Chad, but....maybe he isn't any better than Chad either." Bulma thought silently..

For Bulma most of her morning was spent, trying to get the rest of her stuff packed without running into Vegeta. She tried to keep her mind on things that needed to be done at that moment, but no matter how hard she tried her mind kept drifting back to Vegeta.

" This is ridiculous!" Bulma growled, gritting her teeth together as she picked up some more of her clothes and threw them in her suit case. " If I like him I should just tell him!"

" Talking to yourself?" Chichi's voice interrupted Bulma's quiet thoughts. " Not healthy Bulma."
" Oh hey." Bulma smiled quickly. " Didn't realize anyone was listening."

" So did you sleet well last night?" Chichi asked innocently, a grin spreading across her face. " We all heard that you did."

" Was I that loud?" Bulma asked, her cheeks now a lovely shade of crimson.

" Uh huh." Chichi laughed, walking over to Bulma and sitting down on the bed. " So you guys...."

" No." Bulma snapped in a harsh voice. " I stopped him."

" Why?!" Chichi asked in shock. " As if it wasn't painfully obvious you both wanted that!"
" I got scared okay?" Bulma snapped. " I'm a virgin, no matter what you have heard."

" Your a virgin?! Wow, you fooled everyone." Chichi laughed.

" Yeah why do you think I broke up with Chad? Of course because he hit me, but the reason why he hit me is because I wouldn't sleep with him."
" He's even more of a bastard than we all thought. " Chichi snorted.

" Yeah, his drinking is way out of control. I don't even like drinking all that much." Bulma told her. "Chad is Chad, so I just decided no matter how much history we had together or how I felt, I just wouldn't put up with the hitting. The first time was the last."

" Well I admire that in you Bulma." Chichi smiled. Just as she finished Vegeta walked back into the room and glared at Chichi. " Well I guess that means I had better go." Chichi giggled before getting up and leaving.

"Well I gotta go check on something." Bulma lied, just searching for a way to get away from Vegeta. Quickly Bulma made a move to leave the room, but just as she reached the door Vegeta closed it and locked it.

" Bullshit." Vegeta said flatly, walking towards her. " Why are you avoiding me?"

" This isn't funny Vegeta." Bulma snapped, suddenly feeling trapped.

" I asked you a question." Vegeta told her, his voice low. " Why are you avoiding me?"
" I'm not!" Bulma yelled suddenly, taking Vegeta by surprise. " I just have things to do!"

" Your lying." Vegeta growled, getting closer to her. " I'm not your asshole ex boyfriend. I won't hit you if you don't fuck me."
" Who said anything about you being anything like Chad?" Bulma asked angrily, her hands on her hips. "Besides I believe that my history with my ex-boyfriend is my business and not yours!"

" Its my business if you are going to get involved with me." Vegeta said lowly.

" Who said I wanted to be involved with you? You honestly don't think a loser like myself would go out with a popular guy like yourself?"
" First off, you wouldn't have gone out with us last Friday night, or gone on the trip with us if you weren't interested in me. Second off I date who I like, its so fucking childish to think that way." Vegeta hissed.

" Its true though isn't it? You went out with Marron for image didn't you?" Bulma shot back.

" No, I went out with her because she was a good fuck." Vegeta admitted.

" So how do you think I'm thinking if that is true? You'll go out with me fuck me and then go?" Bulma assumed. "Because that is what you think of me isn't it? You didn't know I was a virgin, so you thought I'd just give it up so easily?"
" No.." Vegeta began. " I'd be lying if I said that I didn't want to fuck you...but that isn't what last night was about."

" Oh really? Then what was it about?" Bulma snarled in rage. Vegeta chuckled as he stepped closer to her and suddenly kissed her roughly.

" That is what last night was about." Vegeta whispered, before letting her go. " So now what I came in here to ask you was, Will you go out with me next Friday night?" Bulma stepped closer to her and slapped him across the face. " What the hell was that for?"

" That is for being an asshole and this-"Bulma began, before kissing him once more. "-is your answer" Bulma smiled as she pulled back and saw the shocked expression on his face. She giggled as she walked past him and unlocked the door and walked out without another word.

Chichi hummed softly as she loaded the last of her bags into Bulma's car and headed back inside. As she opened the door she was met by the a devilish smile, Marron.

" Hey." Marron giggled.

" Oh hey Mar." Chichi said sweetly. " So did you have fun last night?"
" Oh...um....yeah." Marron giggled happily. " He's really good in bed!"

" Too much information Mar!" Chichi laughed. " So why did you and Yamcha hook up all of the sudden."
" I don't know. We just did." Marron sighed.

" Yeah well...Listen Marron I really think that you should apologize to Bulma and 18." Chichi told her.

" Why?!" Marron asked in shock.

" Because for one, you cheated on Vegeta with Yamcha when you knew that he was going out with 18. And second you are such a bitch to Bulma! How do you think things are going to be when we get back? You really think Bulma's just gonna go away? No way. If anything your probably gonna see a lot more of her. " Chichi snapped.

" No we won't because I'm going to get Vegeta back." Marron said defiantly. Chichi sighed in defeat shaking her head gently as she turned away.

By one o'clock all the members of the little group were ready to head out. Chichi and Marron were engrossed in a deep conversation about nail polish and body glitter, while Yamcha and Marron had mysteriously disappeared again, Goku and Krillin were talking about the basketball game last week and Bulma and Vegeta were insulting each other.

" Why do you have to be so damn difficult?" Bulma huffed, slamming her trunk door to her car down. " I'm telling you I know for a fact that we can get home faster by taking interstate 43!"

" Woman just shut up and follow me!" Vegeta argued, quite convinced he was right.

" Don't tell me to shut up! What are you my boyfriend?!" Bulma yelled.

" Nah your ass is too big for my taste." Vegeta laughed.
" Ha yeah and your ego is even bigger than my ass." Bulma shot back.

" Nothing is bigger than your ass."

" Why....you! UGH!" Bulma yelled as she picked up some stray snow and flung it at Vegeta.

" Aw your gonna wish you hadn't done that." Vegeta said, smirking as he also picked up some snow. Bulma dodged the snowball by jumping behind her car, and so the snow ball hit her car.

" YOU HIT MY CAR?! OH MAN YOU DIE NOW!" Bulma yelled as she quickly hurled some more snow at him. Within minutes the little disagreement had turned into a full fledged snow ball fight. Bulma giggled as she hit Vegeta right in the face with a snowball, before getting hit in the arm with his return one. By that time Bulma had fallen to the ground and was out of breath with laughter.

" Had enough?" Vegeta asked wickedly, looming over her.

" Um....I....No..." Bulma managed between to get out between laughs. Satisfied with that answer Vegeta picked her up quickly before walking over to the nearest snow bank and attempting to drop her in, but she didn't let go of his neck so he ended up in the snow bank with her. Bulma giggled as she wrestled to fight her way on top of Vegeta only to end up pinned beneath him.

" Give up?" Vegeta asked, a smirk plastered to his face. Bulma said nothing to this only sticking out her tongue in response before falling into another fit of giggles.

" I'll never give up!" Bulma laughed. before she finally stopped stirring beneath him.

" I win, and there is nothing you can do about it." Vegeta said lowly, gazing at her. Bulma smiled as she felt her stomach flutter.

" Well I could do this." Bulma smiled, leaning up to kiss him.

" Oh Kami their at it again!!!" Chichi cried, causing Bulma and Vegeta to turn around and look at her. " Your like a couple of dogs you know that? The least you could do is not do it on the front lawn!" She yelled again before going back into the house. The two began to laugh again before resuming their activities.
