Hmmm..Oh Yeah.*turns around and mouth is covered in chocolate* For those of you who are confused, Vegeta is about 28-30 or so years old (haven't figured it out yet) and Bulma is about 25-27. So basically they are like at least 3 years apart. *licks lips and realizes there is chocolate on them* Oh shit.*wipes it off on sleeve* ^.^" ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ~*~*~*

Abandoned & Homeless

CHAPTER 7

They grabbed some towels and met each other in the kitchen, where Shin was laying on the mat, in front of a cupboard, and Mushi was curled up next to him, using Shin's body heat to keep nice and warm. Scratch suddenly bounced into the kitchen, for once not on Dr Briefs shoulder, and lay down next to Mushi, resting his head on her back. "Cute." Bulma commented, as they ran outside quickly and into the forest.

They dropped their towels quickly at the water's edge and jumped in, squatting down so the warm water was at their chins. Bulma's teeth chattered. "C-c-cold." She stuttered as she shivered from the cold air. Vegeta wasn't as cold, because he had leared about flaring his ki to keep him warm, but had not flared it because he didn't think it would be fair.

His body ajusted to the water's warmer temperature, and he waded over to her. Bulma moved closer to him as well and snuggled into his warm body as he put his arms around her. "Mmmm.Thanks 'Geta. You're nice and warm." Bulma's body finally began to heat up, and she reluctantly pulled away.

They heard a loud yowling noise heading straight for them. Mushi burst out headfirst from a low bush near the edge of the clearing, Scratch hot on her heels. She looked behind her to see how far away he was from her, but in doing so, she veered off course. The cat went straight off the ground and into the pool, sending up a big splash of water as she sunk under.

Vegeta's eyes widened. Mushi's head popped out of the warm water and she was screeching at the top of her lungs, while flailing her paws around in the air, desperately trying to keep afloat. Her ears were flat back on her head, and her whiskers sagged and drooped, with little droplets of the water beading off them.

Vegeta waded over to her as quickly as he could and picked her up. He had a worried look on his face. Mushi hissed at the cold air. Her little body was shivering and her fur was plastered down on her back. Vegeta lent over the enbankment and he grabbed his towel and placed Mushi on it. He wrapped her up in in and started drying her. After about 2 minutes, he took a peek in at her. All he could see were her two big blue eyes in a mass of quivering black and white fur.

When she was mostly dry, Vegeta let her go and her and Scratch bounded off again. "I hope she doesn't catch a cold, or something." He trailed off. "Don't worry. She'll be okay. Now come back in here so you don't catch one yourself." She reassured him. Vegeta took a last glance in the direction Mushi ran off in, and reluctantly went back to Bulma.

Bulma pulled him close and rubbed his wet chest affectionately. "You need to relax more 'Geta." She whispered into his ear. Vegeta was still looking in the direction that Mushi went, but he took a sideways glance at her. Bulma raised one hand up behind his head and pulled his head towards her. He wasn't really paying attention, and still had a worried look on his face. She placed a tender kiss on his lips, while kneading her fingers into his shoulders. Vegeta's eyes were still open and he wasn't looking at her. He was kissing back, but wasn't paying attention.

Bulma latched onto his bottom lip with her teeth and sucked and nibbled on it. This got his attention. His eyes came back to rest on her face and he realized that she was kissing him. His arms snaked their way around her waist and he closed his eyes as they sunk down into the water. Vegeta's tail floated through the warm hotspring water, and wrapped around her thigh. Bulma chuckled into his mouth. Vegeta suddenly pulled away from the kiss. Bulma could see he was blushing as he stared at the surface of the water nervously, his arms still around her.

"What's wrong 'Geta?" She asked him. "Well..Ummm..I..was wondering..hoping..that y-you c-could.ummm." "Spit it out 'Geta. It can't be that hard, can it?" Bulma laughed playfully. Vegeta took a deep breath. "Iwaswonderingcouldyoupleasetouchmytailagain?!" He let it all out in one go and his blush deepened to a darker shade of red. His hands figeted with the top of Bulma's shorts. Bulma was miraculously able to understand every word he said, and she smirked. "Well if it means that much to you, my cute little monkey boy.." Bulma seductively whispered before putting her lips to his again, and pushing her tounge into his mouth. Vegeta's tail unwrapped itself from her thigh and floated in the water behind him.

Her fingertips brushed the side of his silky black appendage and he shuddered in her embrace. He felt her hand caress his tail, the warmth and ripples in the water adding to the pleasure. He moaned and pushed his body closer to hers. Bulma put her whole hand around his tail and gave it a little squeeze before running her hand up and down it's soft length. Vegeta started grinding his hips against hers as he groaned into her shoulder at the pleasureable sensations running through his muscled and tanned body. Bulma could feel his erection poking into her stomach. She smirked just the way Vegeta did when he was in a playful mood. He pressed his face into her neck and nuzzled at it as she tightened her grip and kept stroking one of the two appendages on a Saiyan's body that could cause pleasure and pain.

(A/N: I think you all know what I'm talking about?? *ahem* ^_^" )

Vegeta closed his eyes and a deep rumbling sound was emmitted from deep in his throat. Bulma closed her eyes too, and rested her chin on his left shoulder. She liked it when he purred. It made her feel cosy and warm, and most of all, safe.

Bulma shifted the position that her head was in, so she was looking at the side of his head. Her eyes opened a fraction and she kissed him on the tender spot of skin underneath his ear. This made his purring get louder. Bulma used the fingernails of her index finger and thumb to push in under the silky fur and scratch lightly at the skin on the base of his tail. This made Vegeta jump and jab his erect manhood into her stomach, almost knocking the wind out of her. "Watch where you're poking that thing 'Geta." She pouted and rubbed the area where he poked at her, pretending to be hurt.

All Vegeta could do was breathe deeply and wonder where in the hell did the sensations go. As soon as Bulma took her hand away from his tail they disappeared. Vegeta scrunched up his nose and whined about it, no longer bashfull about asking her to do it. Bulma laughed to herself. He had enjoyed it more than she thought. She sighed. "Vegeta?" She asked in a soft tone of voice, cutting him off in mid complaint. "Yeah?" He unwrinkled his nose and paid attention to her. "Do you think you are ready for me to do something else? To move up a level?" Vegeta was confused at first, but then remembered Joe's "birds and bees" talk. She was probably going to touch the other side of him now. Vegeta's eyes widened. He knew that the appendage on his front felt good when you touched it as well.

He gulped. "Y-yeah. I t-think so." "You sure?" Vegeta nodded before he could change his mind and back out. "Come on. Let's go over by the rock." They waded over to the large grey rock in front of the falls. The water was deeper next to it, and it reached up to about chest height. Bulma put her hands under the water and ran them down his body and past his abs. She came to the rim of his shorts and pulled it out wider. "One last chance. Are you sure?" She rested her mouth on his chest, softly kissing him, and looking up to meet his obsidian eyes in her loving gaze. Vegeta nodded quickly in response. "Just do it before I change my mind!" He ordered, breathing shallowly, not knowing wether it was because he was scared or excited.

Bulma shrugged nonchalantly and reached into his black shorts and grasping his manhood in her small and gentle hands. Vegeta growled and spun her around into the rock, pressing his body against hers, and not knowing why he was doing it. "Someone's a bit excited!" She grinned and caressed his hardened length. Vegeta moved his hips forward, closer to Bulma's hand. He didn't know what was happening, but he liked it.

A few minutes later, Vegeta was near the point of releasing. Bulma could tell it as well. He was practically laying on top of her. Her whole body was pressed firmly against the rock, and Vegeta was pressing himself into her and nuzzling his face into her neck as he moaned.

Bulma squeezed him a bit tighter and ran her hand up and down his length a bit faster. Vegeta's whole body tensed with his release. It felt really relaxing to finally get it. He slightly let go of Bulma's body so she wasn't pressed so hard against the rock and he just stood there with his eyes closed, and his head on her shoulder, taking in her scent. Bulma giggled. "You owe me one 'Geta." He only purred in return. Bulma brought his head up and looked at him. His eyes were half shut and he had a sleepy yet happy look on his face. Bulma kissed him on his nose.

Vegeta didn't want to move, he was very content just to stay there like that. Bulma looked at her waterproof watch. "Damn. We have been here for a lot longer than I thought." She looked at her fingers, and sure enough, they were all wrinkly. "Great. I'm all pruney now. Let's go back to the house and sit in front of a nice warm fire." Vegeta nodded and shivered. They went over to their towels and dried off as best as they could, before wrapping them around their bodies and bolting through the woods towards the building.

~*~*~*~

They went through the spacious kitchen to get themselves a warm drink before heading up to their rooms to get changed out of their wet swimming atires. Bulma was standing over at the kettle, waiting for it to heat up, when Vegeta noticed an important looking note on the refrigerator door. He took it off and tried to read it. He read it to himself in his head.

'Dear Bulma and Vegeta,

We have gone to stay at a l-lux-lugshoorius hotel in Haw-Hawaii for 3 weeks. The ac-accom-o-dashons.'

He gave up on it. They used to many big words. "Bulma. What does this say. They use big words and I can't read it." "Huh?" Bulma turned around and saw the note in his hands. Vegeta passed the note over to her and she read it to him aloud.

"Dear Bulma and Vegeta,

We have gone to stay at a luxurious hotel in Hawaii for 3 weeks. The accomodations are excellent..blah blah blah..Sorry we didn't tell you sooner. Take good care of Vegeta for us honey, he's like the son we never had.

Love Mum and Dad."

"Wow Vegeta. You are definitely in their good books. How'd you do it?" When she got no reply she looked up. Vegeta had his head stuck in the fridge. He must be hungry. Bulma slapped him on the butt and he jumped, hitting his head on the top of the fridge. "Owww.What did you do that for? That hurt!" He complained while rubbing his sore head. "Oh nevermind. It wasn't that important anyway." She brushed it off. "Let's go get changed."

They came downstairs in their change of clothes. Bulma's parents had lit the fire yet again. They sat on the thick and fluffy white rug in front of it and watched the flickering flames dance across the walls. They had shut the curtains in hopes it would block out the dreary mood the bad weather was creating. This in turn made the room dark, and the only light was the fire. Bulma thought it was rather romantic and she studied Vegeta's face as he watched the flames.

Bulma moved closer to him and sat on his lap, caressing his face with her hand. Their eyes locked on each others for a brief moment before the two were in a very passionate french kiss. Bulma noted that Vegeta seemed to like this way of kissing. She spun around in his lap so she was straddling it, and continued battling with his tounge. Bulma placed her hands on his shoulders and pushed him back a bit. "Ready for the next bit 'Geta?"

Vegeta remembered more of what Joe told him. Apparently, this was the best bit. Vegeta took a deep breath. "Yeah..But I don't know-" Bulma silenced him with her hand. "I know you haven't done this before, but I'll teach you. And I promise that I'll never hurt you okay?" She whispered affectionately to him. Vegeta nodded in a silent agreement.

Bulma pulled his shirt over his head and then her own was taken off. Vegeta gulped, as he was at eye level with her breasts. He opened his mouth to try and say something, but all that came out was a little squeak. He moved his mouth, trying to form a word. All he succeeded in doing was making himself look like a bug-eyed fish.

"Like what you see Vegeta?" Bulma pushed her chest into his face. Vegeta nodded. His face was buried in the valley between her breasts. Bulma picked up his arms and put them around her waist. "You can touch you know. I won't bite.Much." She giggled playfully and nipped at his ear. Vegeta pulled his head out of her chest, still staring at it with mouth opened wide. Bulma sighed. "You ain't seen nothing yet 'Geta." She reached behind her back and undid the clasps of her bra, and threw it to the side, leaving her full chest exposed to him. Vegeta whimpered and fell back, almost at the point of fainting. He lay rigid on the floor with Bulma straddling his body. He had never seen anything like this before. Joe hadn't been very descriptive about foreplay. Neither did he tell how good it felt to be in this position.

Bulma grabbed him by the shoulders and struggled to pull him up. "Look. I know you haven't done this before, but that's no excuse to lay there like a log. Why don't you make yourself useful and start kissing me." She scolded. Vegeta shakily moved his head up to kiss her on the lips when she stopped him. "Not here..There.and work your way down." She pointed to her shoulder, then trailed her finger down toward her voluptuous breasts. Vegeta's eyes rolled back in his head and he let out another whimper as he did as he was told.

He placed kisses on her shoulder lightly and nervously at first but gradually got more confident when she started stroking his tail. He purred at the feelings of pleasure running through him, and tried to concentrate at the task at hand. He finally got down to her chest and he looked up at her through lust clouded eyes. Bulma seemed as if she was enjoying herself, so he continued. His soft mouth latched onto one of Bulma's erect nipples and she murmured something about it feeling really good and that he should keep going.

Vegeta's erection was rubbing between their bodies, creating a warm feeling in the pits of their stomachs. Bulma couldn't take it much longer. She ripped off her mini skirt and panties, leaving her completely in the nude. Vegeta stared in an aroused stupor at her as she undid his belt buckle and pulled his trousers down his legs, throwing them onto the couch. "Off." She commanded as she pointed at his boxers. "Awww.But I like these ones!" He complained. They were made of a white silken material. There was a little machine looking thing on one side, that said "Love Machine." And the "instructions" on how to use "it" were on the other. It read: To operate the Love Machine, please pull the lever. And the lever just happened to be right over where his manhood was. Bulma had gotten him these boxers as a bit of a joke.

"Well how do you expect to be able do anything with them on!?" She grumbled. Vegeta wrinkled his nose then took them off. His throbbing erection was poking into his perfectly chisled abs. Bulma still couldn't get over the fact of how large he was. Even though he had no idea what he was doing, she was sure she would have some fun. "Alright." She said as she climbed over the top of him. "You still owe me." "What do I do?" He asked nervously. Bulma smirked playfully. "Get your fingers like this.And move them like this when they are in a certain spot." She held two of her fingers up and moved them. Vegeta copied her movements wondering what this was for. "W-where is this "spot" you speak of?" Bulma grabbed his hand and lowered it. "Here." She held two of his fingers and pushed them inside of her. Vegeta bolted upright at this. "W-wha.Why.???" "Shhhh.Just move them like I showed you." Vegeta gulped and began moving them inside her warm depths. Bulma moaned and pushed her hips into his hand more.

Bulma grabbed the back of his head and entwined her fingers in his thick ebony mane. She tilted his head up and forcefully kissed him on the lips. She trailed her kisses down past his jaw and nibbled on his neck. Vegeta just sat there with his eyes closed, and his nose buried in her hair, taking in the vanilla scent that was distinctly her own. Vegeta could feel her inner walls throbbing around his fingers. It was by accident that his hand brushed against the little nub hidden within her aqua blue curls.

When he brushed it, Bulma let out another moan. Vegeta came to a conclusion that this little nub must cause a lot of pleasure, and it would only be fair if he returned the favour. He kept doing the movements and pushed his thumb into her curls, looking for it again. When he found it, he began stroking it softly. Bulma closed her eyes and nuzzled her face into his shoulder, still grinding against his hand. "Mmmmm.Vegeta." She breathlessly whispered while nibbling his earlobe.

Her inner walls convulsed around his two fingers as she released, her juices running down his hand. Vegeta pulled his fingers from her and Bulma groaned with the sudden loss of the warmth they were creating. He looked at her juices on his hands and wondered what was to come next. Bulma took his hand and placed one finger in her mouth, tasting herself on him. She guided his remaining finger to his mouth and made him taste her as well. Vegeta liked it. She tasted sweet, like honey. Bulma leaned forward, which made him fall onto his back. "Now for the best bit. You ready?" She asked and kissed him lovingly.

Vegeta nodded. Bulma positioned herself over his throbbing manhood. She gave him a quick smile before sheathing him inside her. Vegeta's eyes rolled back in his head and he arched his back slightly. "Ohhhhh..Fuck." He winced at her warm and wet tightness. This felt way too good. Bulma lifted herself up and down on him. She could feel his length throbbing inside of her.

Vegeta placed his hands on her hips and pushed her down harder. "So you wanna go a bit harder do you? Well I can fix that." She told him. Bulma rolled them over so Vegeta was now on top. He didn't move. Bulma wrapped her slender legs around his waist. "Just do what I was doing. Push yourself into me." Vegeta shivered in pleasure. She could make things sound really erotic just by talking about it. He did what Bulma told him to do. He put his right hand on her thigh and the left on the rug so he was comfortable. It was a bit jerky at first, but he soon got the hang of it and started purring as he thrust into her.

"Uhhhhhnnngggg.Vegeta.Faster." She commanded as she dug her nails into his back. Vegeta growled as he purred, making himself sound like a big cat. He could feel something building up inside of him. He rested his head on her shoulder as he made love to her, giving parts of her a little nip or kiss occasionally. He grunted in her ear as she sucked on the junction between his neck and shoulder. She didn't know why she was doing it. It was as if something was drawing her to it. It was the same for Vegeta.

Bulma's feet were rubbing against the base of his tail and it was driving him insane. He thrust his hips toward her harder and faster.

~*~*~*~

Half an hour later, their bodies were thickly coated in their salty sweat, as they made love to each other on the rug in front of the open fire. The light from the flames flickered over their naked bodies, making it seem as if they were glowing. Vegeta's muscled body rubbed against her, the sweat making their skin stick slightly together. He had learned quickly what spots would make Bulma feel good and what ones would make her scream his name, so he was quite pleased with himself. He couldn't help but give a little satisfied smirk as he thought about it.

Bulma ran her hand down his back and latched onto his furry tail and she started rubbing it. "Unnngggghhh..Fuck.Uhhhhh." He groaned in her ear. Bulma squeezed her thighs together tighter putting more pressure on his manhood. This was the last straw for both of them. When Bulma's inner walls constricted around his manhood Vegeta's release followed not long after. He kept moving inside of her until all of his seed was shot deep into her womb. He collapsed on top of her with a satisfied sigh, purring in her ear.

"For a guy who's never done this before..you're pretty good at it." She panted and flicked her tounge out to moisten her lips. Vegeta didn't say anything, he was too busy staring at a certain spot on her neck. He was watching the artery throb under the skin, and he bared his teeth.
There was a bright flash of white light before Bulma's eyes and a sharp pain in her neck. It was followed shortly after by the pain suddenly disappearing, and the bight light was replaced with quick scenes that were obviously from Vegeta's past. She felt how Vegeta felt, saw what Vegeta saw, and heard what Vegeta heard. The most painful experiences she felt while seeing this were the ones of abuse, and the scene in the park when she never showed up.

Vegeta was going through exactly the same thing. Bulma had not realized she'd bitten him as well. He was seeing things from her past. Her memories were happy ones. He felt sad at how good a life she had, compared to his.

Bulma slowly opened her eyes after the memories had passed. She flet a wetness on her face and realized she had been crying. Crying for him. She wrapped her arms around his neck and cried into his shoulder. "Oh Vegeta! I'm so sorry! I never knew how much it hurt you! I wish I could just go back in time and change it all! I'm sorry!!" She sobbed hysterically. "It's okay. I forgive you." Vegeta picked her up and carried them to his room. He put her under the covers and slid in after her. It was still daylight but they were very tired. The previous activities and the bonding, which they didn't know about yet, had taken a lot out of them. Vegeta spooned up behind her and wrapped his tail and arms around her, drawing her into his chest. "You will have to teach me more of this..Bulma." He yawned. "Okay 'Geta..Okay." And with that, they drifted off to sleep.

~*~*~*~

1 Month later..

"Bulma honey! Come out of there! I know Vegeta must be fun to play with, but that's no reason to waste water! You can do things like that in the bedroom!" Bulma's mother banged loudly on the bathroom door. "Ung!.Go away mum! I'll.ugh!.Be out in a sec!" Bulma pushed her hips closer to Vegeta's. He held her to him and kept moving in and out of her. They were in the shower and were having quite a lot of fun. Bulma's parents knew about their overactive sex life, and weren't really bothered about it. Well, when they came back from their little vacation only to see them in bed together, it came as quite a shock, but Bunny quickly accepted it and was happily dancing around the house. Clive on the other hand, was furious at the time. He was screaming for her to get dressed and get out of Vegeta's bed. But in time he learned to cope with it.

It never really worried her parents unless they were taking up the bathroom or something. They had gotten used to seeing them making out or whatever, and just learned to ignore them. Although it was hard when they were trying to eat.

"Alright honey! But you better be out in 15 minutes at the most!" She yelled over their overly loud grunting and groaning. Vegeta had become much more experienced over the last month, mainly because Bulma had given him a certain little book to study.

(A/N: I think you all know which book. ^_^ If you don't, you must be pretty dumb.)

Vegeta gave a few more quick thrusts and emptied himself inside her. He pulled away from her and she stood upright. Bulma turned around to face him and they started washing each others bodies with the soap Vegeta had lathered up. Bulma wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him, caressing his tounge with her own. Vegeta grabbed her by the hips and wrapped her legs around his waist as he turned off the taps and stepped out of the shower. He flared his ki, instantly drying them both off. Bulma dropped from around his waist and grabbed a cretain appendage on the Saiyan's body, stroking it. Vegeta let out a grunt and reluctantly pried her fingers from around his manhood. "Do that and we'll never get out of here." He smirked at her. Bulma only grumbled and got her brush to brush her hair. Vegeta stood naked in front of the mirror and began shaving his face. Then he went to get dressed. He picked Bulma's clothes up off the floor and raised each of her legs up as he put her panties back where they belonged, helping her to get dressed. He clipped the back of her bra up and just left her like that in her jeans with no top.

"I think you look good like this." His voice muffled as he put his arms around her waist and cuddled her to him, kissing her shoulder. Bulma reached up behind her and put her arms around his neck, tilting her head around so she could give him a kiss. "We do need to get out of here remember? Our 15 minutes is almost up." Vegeta whined in return but let her go so he could get her shirt and slip it over her head.

They exited the bathroom just in time. Clive was coming down the hall with the pick axe, followed by Bunny, ready to bust the door down. They stopped in their tracks. "Oh You two are finally out of there. Guess I won't be needing this after all!" Bulma's parents looked at each other, and Clive dropped the axe, each of them sprinting as fast as they could for the bathroom, desperate to get to the toilet first. In the end, it was Bunny who won, as she was younger and more fit from her dancing about. Clive stood there whining and banging on the door.

Bulma shook her head. Her parents could be such babies sometimes. Just then, Bulma got some naughty ideas in her head. She didn't like to cut her time with Vegeta short. She motioned for Vegeta to follow her to their bedroom. Vegeta knew where this was probably heading. When she had that look on her face it usually meant an intense make-out session, occasionally followed by a "massage." Vegeta always enjoyed these times. He gave her a grin and they hurried to the bedroom. As soon as they were in, Vegeta spun Bulma around and pressed her into the wall, not bothering to close the door. He licked his lips and then kissed her hungrily, eager to taste her. Bulma thrust her tounge into his mouth and wrapped her arms around his broad shoulders, lifting one leg up and sitting it on his hip. He used this position to their advantage and began grinding his groin into her's. Bulma moaned against his mouth.

They stayed in that position for a while, until Bulma pushed him away from her mouth. "Bed." She commanded. Vegeta picked her up, putting his mouth back onto hers, and took her to the bed. He fell onto the bed on top of Bulma, not breaking the kiss at all. He moved them up the bed a bit more, so her head was on the pillow. They didn't even notice Mushi and Scratch cuddled up together on the desk watching them.

The mattress was very soft and they seemed to sink into it, until you could barely see Bulma's body at all beneath his. They just lay there in that position for quite some time just making out with each other. Both the cats were sick of watching them, so they scrunched up their noses and ran from the room yowling their heads off. This caught the attention of Clive, who was still waiting to go to the toilet. He went to the room that they came out of, failing to realize it was Bulma and Vegeta's room.

He peeked in the doorway, only to see Vegeta on top of Bulma, and they were kissing each other passionately. He slapped himself on the forehead. Why couldn't they close the door when they did these things? They should keep it to themselves. Clive turned away and walked back to the bathroom, continuing his bouncing around, while waiting for his wife to finish.

Bulma slipped her hand in between her's and Vegeta's bodies, reaching down towards his belt line. With one hand, she undid the belt buckle and lowered his zipper. Vegeta relaxed a bit so Bulma could fit her hand in. She was about to grab him when they heard someone coughing at the door to get their attention. They both looked up to find her mother there. "I think you two could go at least a day without being all over each other. We all need a break from it." She scolded. Vegeta rolled off Bulma as they both blushed. He pulled up his zipper and buckled his belt. "Mum! Go away! You said we could..But just not in the bathroom!! Besides! I still need to tell him!" Bunny's eyes widened. "You haven't told him yet?" Bulma shook her head. "Well you'd better honey! Toodles!" With that she merrily skipped out of the room.

Vegeta looked at Bulma strangely. "What do you need to tell me?" Bulma let out a large breath of air. "W-well.I'm not sure how you'll react to this.But.." She took a deep breath. "I'm pregnant, and you're the father.." Bulma winced, waiting for his response. Vegeta slowly took the information in. 'She's pregnant.Oh shit.I'm gunna be a father..I'M GUNNA BE A FATHER!!!' His face lit up and he grabbed Bulma, hugging her to him. He happily purred in her ear. Bulma let out a relived sigh and snuggled into his chest. He wasn't angry or upset or anything. Just happy. "Is it a boy or girl?" "The doctor says it's a boy. I can't wait to go buy all his stuff!" "Ooooo!!! Can I teach him to fight?" "Yeah. When he's old enough." Vegeta grinned. "I gotta tell Joe! You come too! He really wants to meet you. He has all this mechanical stuff at his place that he made cos he wants to be a scientist dude!" "Okay! Okay! I'll come! Don't wet yourself!" She laughed.

~*~*~*~

Vegeta nearly ran right into Joe's front door as he bolted up his driveway. He started yelling at the top of his voice as he loudly banged on the door. He heard a voice from inside. "Whoa! Whoa! Hold your horses! I'm coming!" The door was opened and Vegeta nearly fell in on top of Joe. He grabbed Joe by his shirt and jumped up on him, clinging there like a koala in a gum tree on a windy day. "Jeeze little man! Why all the excitement?" He laughed. "I'M GUNNA BE A DADDY!!" He screamed in his ear. "OW! Crap! No need to yell!" Joe pried the smaller man from his body and set him down. "Wait.You're WHAT?!" "I'm gunna be a father!" "Shit! No way! Who's the girl?!" Vegeta stepped out of the way so he could see Bulma.

Joe stared in amazement. "B-Bulma B-Briefs is..is the g-girl??" His mouth dropped open. "Yup!" "Shit..I knew something was up when you came to talk to me..But I never thought it would get to this. Jeeze. I guess you took my talk seriously huh?" He chuckled. "So this is where you went!" Bulma piped up. Vegeta turned around. "Yeah." He said in a small voice. "Oh. How rude of me. Come on in you two!" Joe ushered them both inside to the kitchen where he got them some drinks. Well, to be more presise, the machine that he created got them for them. All you had to do was say the type of thing you wanted out loud, and a little hole appeared in the tabletop and a little stand would raise up with your chosen item on it. The computer system could even talk back, give you it's advice, and you could even have an intelligent conversation with it. Joe had even given it a name; Sophie. To him and his wife, she was like part of the family.

Bulma was amazed at this man's intelligence. "Hey Joe?" She asked over a strawberry smoothie. "Yes Miss. Briefs?" "You can call me Bulma.Anyway, Vegeta tells me you want to be a scientist?" "Yeah. I wanted to be one from a pretty early age. I started tinkering with things around the age of 10. I was going to appy for a job at Capsule Corp., but then I met Vegeta, and I didn't think it would be very fair for me to be living the high life while he was in that alley. I mean, I was already better off than him, I had no need to make him feel any worse. So I stayed here with my wife. But Vegeta has certainly turned the tables on me!" He exclaimed and took a sip of his beer.

"Hmmm. We do have a job position available in my lab. I think you would be just the right guy for it. We have been trying to get a guy who was able to do things similar to this. But I didn't think I'd find someone who was able to do something this complex. This rivals me and my father even!" Joe nearly spat his beer all over everyone. "I-it does?!" "Yes. So that's why I want you to come back with me and talk to my father, show him some of your work. I need someone to help my father out, I won't be working in the lab for much longer if I'm going to have a baby. My father won't be able to keep up with everything by himself."

"Wow. You really mean it?" "Yeah! Why not? It also means that you will be getting a higher paycheck, and a position of higher power than almost all of the scientists that first start out there. Only the people of the highest intelligence get to work in my lab. You are also welcome to stay at Capsule Corp full time in the guest rooms if you want. Normally I wouldn't let people do that, they would have to stay in the workers quarters, but since you are a friend of Vegeta's, I can make an exception." She flashed him a friendly smile.

"Wow! Thanks a bunch! My wife will be really happy. She never did like me coming home smelling like hotdogs. I think she was sick of them!" When Joe and Bulma started talking mechanics and computers, Vegeta tuned out. He was thinking about what it would be like to be a father. He hoped that it wouldn't turn out like his family did. He didn't want his son to lead a life like he had. His concerned expression caught the attention of Joe. "What's up little man? Why the long face? Are we getting too technical for ya?" He smiled. "Huh?" Vegeta looked up. He hadn't caught a word he said. "I asked you what was up. You look a bit worried." "Well I am going to be a father. You would be worried as well. I just hope nothing turns out like my life did." He said the last part in a softer voice. Bulma mover her chair closer to him, which wasn't very far as she was sitting next to him. "It won't turn out like that 'Geta. Everything will be great and we'll all be happy. You'll be a great daddy." She smiled and put an arm around his hunched over shoulders, giving him a soft kiss on his temple. Vegeta gave her a small smile in return and took a sip of his drink. "Don't look so down little man! You got it made!" Bulma laughed at Joe's comment. Seeing Bulma happy and laughing made his mood a bit better and he lent into Bulma's embrace a bit further.

Joe noticed this small movement. "Why don't we go into the lounge room? We'll be more comfortable, and you two will have more room to cuddle up!" He laughed and stood up, finishing the last of his drink and placing the empty bottle next to the bin. Vegeta and Bulma blushed, moving away from each other, and put their glasses in the sink.

They followed Joe into his lounge room and sat down on the couch. It was more like Vegeta sat on the couch and Bulma was practically in his lap. Joe was telling stories to Bulma about when he first met Vegeta, and she told him about what she remembered.

~*~*~*~

2 hours later they emerged from Joe's house laughing at something. Both Vegeta and Bulma said their goodbyes and left to go back home. "I think that Joe is a really nice man. You're lucky to have a friend like him 'Geta." Bulma told him as they drove along the street. Vegeta only nodded. "What's gunna happen now? I mean when the baby comes and all." Vegeta asked her after a moment of silence. "Well it's going to be a bit different. I'll be getting up at all hours of the night to look after him. You'll have to do a lot of things too. Mainly during the 9 months that I'll be carrying the baby, but after that I will be the one doing most of the work." "Okay." The rest of the trip was left in an uncomfortable silence.

"Vegeta?" Bulma asked as they pulled up the driveway. "Yeah?" "You aren't having second thoughts about this are you? About the baby?" She turned towards him, waiting for his answer. Vegeta took a deep breath. "It's not that..It's just..It's a bit quick don't you think? I'm not sure if I'm ready for it." Bulma looked hurt, so he turned away. He felt a hand on his shoulder. "Look Vegeta. I can understand why you would feel this way. Everything is happening all at once and you must be really confused and scared. But I really want to have this baby. I don't ever want to be with anyone else but you, and I'm really glad this child is yours." Bulma shifted her hand and placed it on his face. She expected him to pull away from her, but to her surprise he lent in towards her, nuzzling his face into her hand. He then reached up and took it in his firm grasp and pulled her closer to him, leaning over the gear stick, and putting his arms around her. Bulma wrapped her arms around his neck and buried her face in his shoulder. Vegeta nibbled on her earlobe, slowly moving down to her neck to where he made the mark about a month ago. Goku, and his mate/wife Chi Chi, had explained to them why all of that happened, and they now knew it was a bond.

ABOUT 8 MOTHS LATER.

(A/N: Yes I know I'm skipping quite a bit ahead, but I can't be bothered writing about everything that happened. _ I wanna get this story done as quick as possible so I can start the next.)
A tired and sweaty Bulma flopped her head down on the pillow, completely worn out. She had just given birth to her child and could barely keep her eyes opened any longer. She held her arms out for the doctor to pass her her little baby boy. His small and chubby little arms waved up at her as he flailed them everywhere. A whimper drew her attention from the little bundle in her arms to her bedside instead. Vegeta was sitting there with a pale face. He was sweating too, and he was holding his hand in pain. Bulma had been gripping his hand rather tightly during the birthing process. "Sorry 'Geta, but it really hurt." She grinned. It did nothing to improve his condition. Bulma winced. "Hey nurse!" She yelled across the room. The young woman turned around. "Yes?" She asked softly. "Can you get Vegeta an ice pack? I think I hurt his hand." The lady grinned at her knowingly. No matter how strong their men thought they were, they nearly always ended up getting hurt when being there with their wives or otherwise. She nodded and went to fetch the ice pack.

The nurse came back in a few minutes with a nice cold ice pack, and some bandages. She put the ice on his hand as he whimpered. It hurt like crazy. After a while she took off the ice and wrapped the bandages around his hand. "This will help lower the swelling. I've seen men who have been in here with their wives, and after they left, a few days later the came back with these big bloated hands because they never put anything on it to stop the swelling." Vegeta grimaced.

After she left, he silently watched Bulma play with their child, cooing softly to him. Their child. It sounded so.so right. He smiled. Bulma looked up at him as if she knew what what he was thinking. "You wanna hold him?" Vegeta nodded and moved closer to the bed. He held out his arms and Bulma gently placxed their son in them. He brought the infant to his chest and held him there. The little boy had cerulean eyes, just like his mother. And he also inherited her odd hair colouring. "What are we gunna name him?" "Well, I was thinking.Trunks. How does that sound?" She yawned. "Yeah. That's good." He looked up. She looked so tired. "You should sleep now." He told her. "You..stay here..too." She managed to say and she closed her eyes, but still reaching out for him. Vegeta assumed that she wanted him to stat in the same bed as her, so he carefully got in with her, holding their son protectively between them. And they all drifted off to sleep together.As a family.

~*~*~*~

(A/N: I dunno how long people are supposed to stay for in the hospital after pregnancy.So I'll just say..4 days???)
4 days later, and Bulma was ready to go home. She held Trunks in her arms as her and Vegeta walked out into the hospital carpark, to where their driver was waiting with her car. Vegeta didn't know how to drive yet, so he had to get him to drive them instead. If he did know how, he would be the one doing the driving.

They got in the car and went to Joe's house first. He greeted them with a smile and was happy to meet the little boy she held in her arms. Trunks seemed to really like the big man, so it was agreed that when Bulma and Vegeta needed a break from him, Joe and his wife would look after him. They had always wanted a child of their own, but it would be too hard looking after one full time on their incomes, and on their normal lives, so they would just babysit instead.

While Joe and Bulma talked and watched the little baby in his arms, Joe's wife took Vegeta to one side and appologized for the way she had reacted in the past, it had just been her reaction to Joe bringing someone who looked like him into the house and trust in him so completely. She promised that she wouldn't judge people like that again. He was a bit untrusting at first, but accepted her appology.

Soon it was time for them to leave, even though Joe had wanted them to stay for longer. Trunks had been crying, he didn't want to go either. Bulma guessed he had grown an attachment to the man. Bulma couldn't help but admit to herself that he was handsome. But she loved Vegeta with all her heart, and would never leave him. And she didn't think of Joe in any other way than just a friend. Besides, he loved his wife too much as well.
When they reached their house and walked in the door, Clive and Bunny welcomed them with smiling faces and cheery voices. They offered to talk Trunks off their hands for a while so they could relax. Bulma was quick to take up on that offer. Vegeta and Bulma slowly made their way upstairs to their bedroom. Bulma was just going to collapse on the bed, but Vegeta helped her get changed first. He picked her up and threw her on the bed, making her bounce for a bit. They climbed in under the covers and cuddled up, facing each other with their foreheads touching. Before Bulma could fall asleep, she kissed his lips tiredly. "You have no idea how much I love you 'Geta.." "Yeah I do." He whispered back. "Guess you aren't abandoned and homeless anymore huh? You have your own family now. And we'll never hurt you." "Yes. And for that I am glad." Bulma smiled and cuddled into his warm embrace. It wasn't long before she fell asleep. Vegeta looked down at her with tired eyes.

A family. A real family that would never hurt him. This is what he had always wanted, for his whole life he had dreamed of being part of a family that cared for him. And now he was.

"I guess dreams do come true." He whispered to the empty room. He closed his eyes and joined his mate in slumber. Bunny and Clive were standing at the door with Trunks listening to them. "I feel really bad about being so mean to him all that time ago. But I'm glad he gave me the chance to make things right. He may not be the rich man, but he is perfect for our daughter." Clive whispered and he and his wife left the room.
