Authors note: I was a little bit dissapointed with my last chapter, it had a few funny moments, but everytime I read over it, I like it less-I still like it thought heh heh :). This Chapter, I used Tina Arenas song:I want to know what love is. I really hope you enjoy this fic, I am rather happy with it. This ones more of a chapter of the 3 characters reflection, so there aren't as many jokes etc, but theres still some in there. Oh, please dont sue me either for using these songs and characters hehe, I dont own them okay ;).

Gotta take a little time
A little time to think things over
Better read between the lines
In case I need it when I'm older
Ooh yeah
This mountain I must climb
Is like the world upon my shoulders
Through the clouds I see love shine
It keeps me warm as life grows colder

"I'm WINNING! YES! I AM THE CHAMPION! THIS IS THE 32nd TIME I'VE BEATEN IT", Yamcha yelled, in hysterics over his win on the 'Tale Spin' game(the game where a bear is flying around in an aeroplane..) on Nintendo- the very FIRST Nintendo mind you. Yamcha bowed to an invisible crowd and started jumping around happily. "I must tell Bulma the good news", Yamcha said, letting out a girly little squeal of glee. "Oh... YEAH... that uncool, NOBODY, Vegeta has brainwashed my sweet angel", Yamcha reminded himself, throwing the Nintendo control deck at the floor. The deck broke into 2 peices, resulting in Yamcha bursting into a fit of rage, hitting the floor and screeching like a monkey. "VEGGGEETTTTA, YOU WILL PAY! FIRST, YOU STEAL MY GIRL, THEN YOU STEAL MY ULTRA COOL HOMIE LOOK, NOW, YOUR UNCOOLENESS MEANT THE SACRIFICE OF MY BEAUTIFUL CONTROL DECK... IT IS... reall..yy.... G...GGonnnn..eee...!! That is CROSSING THE LINE. NO ONE messes with MY Nintendo", Yamcha hissed, rolling on the ground, kicking his legs like a 2 year old throwing a tantrum. "SHUT UP YAMCHA... DONT YOU HAVE A HOME TO GO TOO? IM TRYING TO READ HERE", Master Roshi called out from his deck chair outside, waving a swim suit magazine around. Yamcha picked up his broken deck and took it out to show Roshi, and with a trembling lip, he said, "VE... GE... TA... MUST... DIE"! Master Roshi stared at the control deck, laughed, and said,"Yamcha, maybe you can buy a new control? You've only got one game anyway, which you have finished a dozen times already. Plus, I saw YOU throw the deck, not Vegeta". Yamchas face turned red and he stamped his foot.
"I have finished the game 32 times thankyou very much," Yamcha stated,"and now, I am going to find someone to help make Vegeta pay"! With that, Yamcha gently laid his control deck down and flew off. Master Roshi just shrugged, and got straight back into his magazine, wondering who on EARTH would want to help Yamcha with his dumb quest, especially since they should be preparing for the androids!

In my life
There's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
Can't stop now
I've traveled so far
To change this lonely life

I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me
Yeah

Everyone Yamcha had spoken to had told him to get lost/get a life/get a job and other answers along those lines when he had requested their help to defeat Vegeta. Yamcha had almost given up hope, even Mr Popo had rejected his plee- then he remembered their was still one person he hadn't asked! Turtle! Yamcha flew off at top speed (which wasn't that fast) back to Master Roshis.
"Well, I dunno Yamcha, Vegetas really strong. Maybe your taking the wrong approach. Are you sure Bulma still loves you", Turtle asked, after Yamcha had explained his story. Yamcha just blinked-WAS this turtle serious?! Ofcourse Bulma still loves him! He may have made some mistakes, but he was only human. She was romping around with Vegeta, some creep shes only known for a little while, and she thinks hes the bad one?! "Turtle, Bulma has just been corrupted. I am going over to her house, and I am going to lay down the line. She must come back to me and forget Vegeta. I love her. I really do, and I cant bare the thought of losing her", Yamcha said, letting out a sigh. How could I had been so blind? Bulma is my one true love, and I wrecked it. I must win her back, and I MUST make VEGETA pay, Yamcha thought, clenching his fists in anger. He had been blinded by jelousy and rage, but he just could not control himself with the thought in the back of his head that he could lose Bulma forever. She was his backbone, his confidante' and his lover. He would win her back, he vowed, as he waved to Turtle and flew off towards Capsule Corp.

Gonna take a little time
A little time to look around me
Got nowhere left to hide
Looks like love has finally found me

In my life
There's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
Can't stop now
I've travelled so far
To change this lonely life

Bulma was laying down on her bed, with a new issue of a science magazine, flipping through absent-mindedly. She couldn't help but feel guilty about the way she had been treating Yamcha, it was in Bulmas nature to be concerned about her friends- EVEN cheaters like Yamcha. I hope I wasn't to hard on him, she thought, putting her magazine down and sitting up, looking out the window. Another man was also on her mind- The strong headed(or should she say, Pig headed) Prince of the Saiyans, Vegeta. He was great in bed, she thought with a grin. But, would anything more ever come of it. She was becoming rather fond of that dangerous little monkey, and she didn't know if it was safe to assume he was starting to care for her in return. I can't very well go out and ask him if he wants a seriuos relationship, he might start avoiding me, or even laugh in my face, Bulma thought, falling back onto her bed. She had 2 men in her life- A little cheater who adored and loved her and a Sexy Prince who was everything she could WISH for in a lover, but copped out in the sensitive and sweet side of the relationship department. She wanted to stay with Vegeta, but she wanted closure that he cared. But somewhere, in the back of her mind, she also craved for Yamchas attention and adoration- but how could she trust him again, let alone start a serious commitment with him, if there was always going to be the risk of him cheating, or that thought in Bulmas head- Was he going to stay loyal and true?

Vegeta was in the middle of his training, head filled with only one thought- to get stronger then Kakkarott! And this meant achieving the legendary Super Saiyan level of power. Vegeta flew around the gravity chamber, firing and dodging blasts. It was intense training, and Vegeta only had breaks for 2 reasons- if he was hungry or for some fun in the womans room! He thought it was rather weak of himself to give up precious training time to get some pleasure out of that spitfire of a woman, but he couldn't help his mind wandering after their previous encounters in the bedroom. He cursed himself, as a blast hit him in the shoulder, that woman had preoccupied his thoughts again! He switched the gravity back down and turned the machine off, in the process, sitting himself down. I have to become a Super Saiyan, he thought, with a hand to his head. And there is only way i'm going to be able to accomplish this feat. I'm going to have to undergo a more intense training schedule, and keep my thoughts on my one goal ONLY- too become a Super Saiyan! Vegeta let out an angry grunt, as all these thoughts danced through his mind. The only way Vegeta could think of doing this, was to get as far away from the woman as he possibly could. Vegeta smirked at his little idea, and cursed himself at the same time. If only he had stayed out of that womans bed in the first place, he thought, thumping the ground. Vegeta composed himself, stood up and turned the machine back on. I will depart tommorrow, he thought, as he got back to his training.

Bulma walked from her room and walked down the stairs. As she walked, she reflected on everything she had been thinking about. So much for not needing some sort of care from a man, Bulma thought, remembering how she told Vegeta she didn't need anyone but herself. She resented herself for saying it, WHAT was he going to think of her now? If only he would give her a sign, just one little sign, that he did care. Sure, she wasn't head over heals in love with him, but she cared more then she even knew, and she had to know he wasn't just using her for the sex (though that had been both of their plans in the beginning). Surely, it has grown into something more then just sex, she thought, as she walked to the back exit of Capsule Corp. I will talk to him, she thought, smiling. He must care, and I shall get him to show it, even just a little! She quickened her paced towards the Gravity chamber, but she stopped as she heard someone land close behind her. She jumped a little from suprise, and turned to see non other then Yamcha, one of the men haunting her thoughts. "Umm, Hi Yamcha. Listen, I just want to...", Bulma started, but was cut off by a kiss from Yamcha. It was just a soft kiss on the lips, nothing passionate, but she felt her whole body tingle in appreciation. She kicked herself in her mind and thought, IM MEANT TO BE TALKING TO VEGETA! Yamcha clasped her hands in his, snapping her from her battle inside of her head. "Yamcha.. what was that? I.. I told you", she started again, but Yamcha cut her off, releasing one of his hands and putting a finger gently to her mouth.
"Bulma. Im so sorry for what I did to you. Your everything a man could want in a woman! Your smart, beautiful, kind, confident and.... I hope one day, you will to learn to forgive the unforgivable. Forgive my mistakes. I apologise again for my betrayal. But, I can assure you this now- My love is true, and I wont make the same mistakes again. I cant think of life.. without you", he said, sincerely, with love and admiration shining in his eyes. He kissed her hands, which he had recaptured in his, and left Bulma with more in her head then she needed. Bulma fell to the grass where she had been standing near the Gravity chamber. What am I going to do, she thought, pushing hair from her face which was now streaked with tears.

Yamcha did not fly back to Roshis. He had flown away from Capsule Corp., over trees, rivers and the city, then he returned to Capsule Corp, this time from behind the Gravity Chamber. By this time, Bulma had gone inside to freshen up or clear her head or something along those lines, so Yamcha snuck up to the gravity chamber, unnoticed by all. "Now, Vegeta has to know where he stands", Yamcha started,"I will put him in his place". Yamcha started to raise his power sharply oustide the Gravity Chamber to draw Vegeta out. As planned, Vegeta came outside to see what that MORONIC HUMAN wanted! "WHAT DO YOU WANT, DAMNED FOOL", Vegeta yelled down Yamchas throat. Yamcha waved a hand in front of his face to indicate Vegeta had bad breath(which did not impress Vegeta in the least) and he just laughed. "Vegeta, I spoke to Bulma, and after that, she is not going to want to be your bed partner anymore! She will want me, not you! We even kissed, and she sure as hell didn't pull away, even if it was just a smooch. I sure felt her melt in my arms", Yamcha scoffed, shaking his head at Vegeta.
"Impudent fool! Do not feel so sure! The woman has told me i'm much more satisfying in the bedroom, and I do not care who she chooses to be her 'BED PARTNER'! I am going to train and become a Super Saiyan! And a stupid little scumbag like you wont put me off", Vegeta hissed at Yamcha, loathe put into every single word. Yamcha was taken aback, but he managed to come back to his cocky self and just chuckle. "Whatever you think Vegeta! I know whose the better man for her. AND sex is not the only thing that matters in a relationship- though it is a bonus", Yamcha said, laughing at his own joke. With that, he flew off, back to Roshis island. Vegeta sighed, WHY couldn't he just train! He had to become a Super Saiyan! And he didn't have the time to be worrying about stupid little humans and their washed up emotions!

Bulma stood infront of the bathroom mirror, splashing her face with cold water to try and make it seem as though she had not been crying. It was to no avial, her eyes where red underneath and she looked very put out. She and Vegeta had been sleeping with each other for sometime now, and Bulma felt a need for more intimacy. She also felt something else. Something inside of her which she could no longer deny. Bulma pulled something out of the bathroom draw and shut the door behind her.

Vegeta continued to train, his mind swirling with thoughts that where new too him. How could he be feeling..... jelousy over that pathetic fool, Yamcha?! I really have to get out of this crud hole of a planet, Vegeta thought. Tommorrow, I will be gone, he thought, and I will not have to look upon the face of that rat Yamcha... or, her... until I reach my goal! Look out Kakkarott! I WILL be stronger, you shall see, Vegeta thought, a blast smashing into his back. The sooner I leave... the better! There is no time, like the present! With that, Vegeta continued to train, with a new inspiration. So soon, would his goal be accomplished-- HE WOULD BE THE STRONGEST SAIYAN TO EVER LIVE!
*~
Soon... so soon, she will be mine... once again, Yamcha thought, cradling his broken Nintendo control deck in his arms. I will show Bulma the depths of true love, and I will show her what I can REALLY do in bed, he thought cockily, rising to go inside. A voice in his head made him hesitate--"Are you sure Bulma still loves you", it said. Stupid Turtle, Yamcha thought, fighting off a horrible feeling in his stomach. Ofcourse... she does... Yamcha went pale and thought to himself, What if Turtle was right? Yamcha grumbled and chucked his control deck into the ocean surrounding Kame house, dismissing the thought at once. If Turtle was right, he had lost his 2 loves in one day.
