Bulma's Thoughts and Dreams

Vegeta's Thoughts and Dreams

"Speaking"

Anyone else's Thoughts.

Love or Pride?

It had been three months since Vegeta had come back to the Brief's home and helped Bulma and she couldnt remember ever been so happy in her life. Her parents noticed too and her mother was awaiting a grand-baby. 'That Vegeta! Heehee I wonder what finally made him see that my Bulma was just for him?' Mrs. Briefs thought as she hummed in her garden. Bulma was in the lab making a prototype when the phone rang. She ignored it and her father picked it up.

"BULMA! It's ChiChi!" Her father called up to her.

"Okay I'm coming!" Bulma called back. She wiped the grease off her hands and headed upstaires. "Moshi Moshi?" Bulma said as she picked up the phone.

"Moshi Moshi! Hey Bulma! What happened? Yamcha came here just a few minutes ago and he was pretty banged up. Said something about Vegeta and you and I thought he ment that Vegeta was going to hurt you!." Chichi sounded worried but at the same time relieved to hear Bulma's voice.

"Oh no Chichi, Vegeta saved me from Yamcha. I'm sure Yamcha didn't tell you the whole story." Bulma said thinking back to how Yamcha could lie with a gun to his head.

"Whole story?" Chichi asked slowly now worried again.

"Yes whole story. Of what really happened between me and him..." Bulma began her story. She talked slowly and calmly because she knew everything was going to be alright. Chichi on the other hand was growing more and more angry by the second. "And then Vegeta can back and saved me from Yamcha." Bulma finished. She thought about telling Chich more about her and Vegeta but then thought better of it. 'His 'magisty' may still have too much pride for that to get out.'

"Well! I dont think Yamcha will be welcome here for a long long time as far as I am concerned!" Chichi said before she could continue talking a voice sounded in the background.

"Hey Chichi? I'm kinda hungry are you gonna fix lunch soon?" Goku had stepped into the room with his hand behind his head.

"Oh Goku!" Chichi sighed. "Hey Bulma I'll talk to you later. I have to feed Goku and Gohan." Bulma laughed.

"Okay Chi, call me later and we'll go out okay?" Bulma said.

"Hai! Bye Bulma." Chichi hung up, and Bulma did the same. She smiled then walked back to her lab.

***5 months later***

Bulma woke up like a shot and wondered what had woken her. Then like a bolt of lightning her stomach felt like it had been punctured by a bullet. She jumped up and ran to the bathroom. Her sudden movements had extracted a low growl from her sleeping mate. 'What is that woman doing?!?' Vegeta wondered then he heard gagging sounds coming from the bathroom. He furrowed his eyebrows and got up and walked to the bathroom. He opened the door and Bulma was throwing up in the toilet. He cocked his head, when Bulma had stopped she looked at him then avoided his eyes.

"What's wrong woman?" Vegeta asked crossing his arms.

"Nothing Vegeta," Bulma looked at the clock, it was only three. "Go back to bed." She ducked past him and got back into bed. Vegeta turned out the bathroom light and stared at the sleeping shadow that was his mate. Then decided to ignore her behavior for her being tired. He walked back to the bed and crawled in. He wrapped his arms around Bulma and went back to sleep for two hours.

At five Vegeta got up and went to the gravity room. While getting out of bed he made sure not to wake up Bulma. Little did he know she had been lying awake since three. She got up slowly and got dressed. She looked out the window and watched the gravity machine whirl and beep before leaving for her own destination.

An hour later Bulma arrived home in tears. 'What will he do when I tell him I am carrying his child?' Bulma thought she crawled into bed and cried herself to sleep.

Meanwhile Vegeta had stopped training for a while and was sitting on the floor of the machine thinking. 'What was the woman doing this morning? Why was she sick? She may have been tired but even then she would not have avoided my eyes.' He began to sulk. Then he turned the machine back on and trained. He trained for seven days strait only stopping in the middle of the night to eat and shower before going back to he machine to train.

Bulma was begining to get worried about Vegeta when Chichi decided to pay her a surprise visit.

"BULMA!" Chichi yelled two feet behind Bulma making her fall out of her lab chair.

"Chichi! Please don't do that again. You about made me pee in my pants." Bulma said trying to compose herself.

"Heehee, so what's up?" Chichi asked her firend.

"Nothing really, but im so glad you are here. I have alot I need to talk to you about." Bulma said her voice sounded sad now and tired.

"What's wrong?" Chichi asked.

"Well first off I have something I wanted to talk to Vegeta about but he has locked himself in the gravity machine since last week. Second what I need to talk to him about may make him extreamly mad" Bulma now looked extreamly confused.

"What is it you need to tell him?" Chichi asked.

"I'm going to have his baby, a boy, but you know Vegeta he may leave me if I tell him." Bulma finished.

"I don't think he will. He may be an arrogent jerk, but I think he has some dignity, or at least enough to take care of his child. But if you dont tell him he may think it's someone else's baby." Chichi said matter of factly. "But if he does leave you anyway you know you always will have Goku and me, not to mention your parents to help you take care of the baby." A tear slid down Bulma cheek but she smiled and hugged her friend. "Now you want to go to a movie?" Chichi asked.

"Sure, lets go! And Chichi thank you." Bulma said full of gratitude.

"You know that's what I'm here for." Chichi said winking.

When Bulma came home Vegeta was sitting on the couch waiting for her. "Is there something you need to tell me?" Vegeta asked with his arms crossed. His face was void of expressions.

"Why do you think that?" Bulma said almost defensively.

"It's in the way you are walking, the way you were acting a week ago, and in you voice now." Vegeta stood up and uncrossed his arms and walked towards Bulma. "Tell me what it is woman." Vegeta's face remained expressionless.

"I.....I....." Bulma stamered as she tried to come up with something to say.

"Do not lie to me Bulma please." Vegeta softened his voice a little. 'He called me by my name....'

"I.....We......" Bulma sighed then took a deep breath. "We are going to have a baby." Bulma looked down at the floor and squeezed her eyes shut waiting......for him to scream or threaten or just leave. Vegeta shook his head and lifted Bulma's chin gently.

"I knew that." Vegeta said smirking.

"How?" Bulma asked confused.

"Well last week when you freaked out when you woke up I searched your energy for something that may have been wrong with you and found another ki. A very smally ki but I knew another lifeform was close by and coming from you. Thats how I knew. Now why were you scared to tell me?" Vegeta asked somewhat concerned now. Bulma reached forward and hugged him.

"I was scared you would leave me." Bulma said relieved.

"Why would I leave my mate and son?" Vegeta asked concerned. Bulma looked up at him strangly then smiled. He kissed her forehead.
