Tale of Two Tempers
Chapter 4
Confusion and Loneliness
Disclaimer: First of all I don't own DragonballZ, and second of all I don't own the song 'Both Sides of the Story' which is sung by Phil Collins. Oh well...
Bulma swung around, but only in time to see the G.T. door slam closed. She stood and gaped for a few seconds before muttering, "Well that was weird."
.....................
Vegeta leaned back against the steel wall. He had been confused before, but now he was completely bewildered. Why had he thanked her? 'I thank no one! But then again no one stands up to me as she does.....' He sat and mulled it over in his head for a few minutes. He realized that he was just as confused as before. 'I will just have to ask the woman what is wrong with me, but not now. After my training.
.......................
Bulma let out a small sigh. Everything was messed up. Before today she had assumed Vegeta to be a cruel and heartless killer, but when she had looked into his eyes today she had seen something that was all too familiar, loneliness. She new her break-up with Yamcha was for the best but...she was so lonely. She had thought she was the only one. Now she knew better, but still, how would she ever tell Vegeta that? 'Oh well,' she thought rather sadly, 'It's no big deal. I've been lonely before.' She'd been lonely before alright. That's why she went looking for the Dragonballs in the first place. She laid her head back in her hands. 'But why would Vegeta be lonely? He said himself that all he cares about is becoming stronger than Goku. I mean for crying out loud he killed people for fun!' She thought confused. She reached over and turned on the radio. 'Maybe I'll just relax for a little while,' she thought. The lyrics began to play....
White man turns the corner, finds himself within a different world
ghetto kid grabs his shoulder, throws him up against the wall
he says "would you respect me if I didn't have this gun
'cuz without it, I don't get it, and that's why I carry one"
We always need to hear both sides of the story
She gasped. Could Vegeta be looking for respect, and thinks the only way he can get it is by force? 'Well,' she thought, 'I won't really know unless I ask, but I don't know if I should...He has a bit of a temper. Ok, scratch that, he has a HUGE temper. I could maybe ask later, maybe...' She headed down to her lab to work on an experiment she had just now decided to start...
A/N: I'm going to do my best to make the following chapters longer. Was the song a good idea? I was just listening to the radio one day and then 'click.' I'll have the next chapter out soon cause I know what I'm gonna do for once ^_^ I have 15 reviews! I can't believe it! thank you sooooo much to each and every one of you, because to me each and every review counts. *tackles reader to the ground and hugs them like crazy*
