I know it seems like I've been slacking off, but I really haven't!! I sent this chapter to my editor and never got it back, and I tried sending it to someone else but they didn't reply either. *sniffs* Please ignore any errors since I can't get anyone to reply! Enjoy!
I angrily stomped towards the forest, I needed some time alone, time to think.
'How can such an annoying man be so damn hot? So what if he's a total hottie, a prince, and possibly the strongest man on Earth? What do I care?'
'LIKE HELL U DON'T CARE!!! WHO ARE YOU TRYING TO KID, YOU'RE OBVIOUSLY IN LOVE WITH HIM!!!' A small part of my mind screamed.
'UGH! I AM NOT IN LOVE WITH HIM, I DON'T EVEN LIKE HIM!!!! I am in love with Mamoru!' My logic kicked in, this is just great, now I'm arguing with myself...
'If you're so IN LOVE with Mamoru then why is Vegeta on your mind all the time instead of Mamoru?'
Can't your subconscious be SO annoying? I looked up at the darkening sky, feeling a cool breeze against my face as I realized that a storm was coming. I could feel all the color draining from my face, I hate storms and am terribly afraid of them. I turned around and felt as if my face had just gotten ever paler than before as it dawned on me that I had walked so far I couldn't see CC anymore. I took in a ragged breath as I started to jog in the direction I thought I had come from, there was no telling if this was the way to CC I could easily get lost out here. I felt a single droplet of rain land on my head as I mentally tried to prepare for the storm I was sure I would get caught in. I looked up in hopes of spotting even the smallest evidence of CC being near, my hopes were dashed when I only saw miles of forest in front of me. Several drops of rain fell from the sky, soaking my thin layer of clothing making it stick to me like a second skin. I jumped as the dark sky lit up for a split second, which was quickly followed by a deep rumble, the rain fell harder and I quickened my pace in hopes of finding shelter.
I run for what seemed like hours to me, my legs burning with the effort but I didn't really feel it since practically my whole body was numb from the cold. I collapsed onto the now muddy ground in exhaustion, not caring how dirty I was. I sat there for a moment trying to regain my strength until I shakily got to my feet once again. I was breathing heavily and instantly froze when I heard a twig snap behind me, (AN ~ So maybe she wouldn't REALLY hear that, but give me a break here I had to think of something!) I turned around sharply which sent me tumbling back to the ground clutching my ankle in pain. "What are you doing way out here, onna?" I growled in frustration realizing who had cause me to hurt my ankle. "Damn it Vegeta, this is all your fault!! Can't you see I'm in pain here!?!" I yelled at him, still clutching my ankle as I looked up at him through my eyelashes angrily. "It's not my fault you tripped, onna. Stand up and let's go, the other onna is waiting for us to get back!" He plastered that annoying smirk on his face. Gritting my, getting more frustrated with him by the minute, I ignored him and tried to stand, only succeeding in hurting my ankle more as I cried out in pain.
"I think I sprained my ankle, I can't possibly walk on it now! THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!!!" My ankle was rapidly swelling and pain was radiating from it as I squeezed my eyes tight in pain. I gasped in shock when I felt 2 strong arms come around me, Vegeta was picking me up princess style! I tried to ignore the sensation of his arms around me and managed to sqeak out, "What are you doing?" "You said you couldn't walk, right? What do you think I'm doing?" Came his curt response. I squealed as we suddenly blasted off into the sky and clinged to Vegeta for dear life, shutting my eyes in fear. "Calm down, onna. We'll be there soon." I hesitantly cracked open an eye to look up at Vegeta and then another so I was staring up at him, he was staring ahead to kami knows where. I don't know what came over me at this moment, but I suddenly reached out a hand and brought it to the side of his face moving it so he was staring right at me. I was enticed by his dark eyes and I knew what would happen next even though part of my mind was screaming at me not to. The space between us got smaller and smaller, as if an invisible force was drawing us together, I closed my eyes feeling his surprisingly soft lips touch mine.
