Chapter 3
Complicated
Everything was back to normal in the life of the protectors of the Earth, and everyone was going through they daily live like they used to. In Capsule Corp. lives was a little different though. In the middle of the Corporation's lawn a round spaceship was standing still, inside of it a Saiya-jin prince was striving to become a Super Saiya-jin. Six months had come by and still the prince couldn't transform into a Super Saiya-jin, but he wouldn't give up. His power had increased tremendously but it was far from being one.
"I can't believe it he didn't took him merely that long to do it" said Vegeta frustrated he was cover of sweat, he was hungry in the breaking point of exhaustion, but he told himself that when his not going to get out of here without being one, so he had spent a week in here without sleeping, eating, and resting.
Sitting under one of the balconies of Capsule Corp, Bulma and Yamcha were chatting, well Yamcha was doing all talking and Bulma seemed to be lost somewhere in her thoughts.
"I've nominated for best Baseball player of the year, everything seems to work out pretty find, and maybe I could finally buy that house near the ocean we wanted, I already picturing ourselves walking on the beach witnessing the beautiful sunset hands in hands, Bulma are you listening to me? Bulma?"
"Uh, what?"
"You didn't hear a word a just say, don't tell me you are still thinking about him?"
"I am just worried; he had been in here for a long time without getting out or eats! You know what that meant do you?"
"No, what is it?"
"Well he's a Saiya-jin, I couldn't imagined Gokou fasting that long"
"That monster isn't Gokou! I think he was raised that way or something, and if he died this wouldn't be a big lost"
"How can you say something like that?"
"What? the guy is only trouble, if he never get out and died in here that would be great!"
"I can't believe you could be so cold hearted Yamcha!"
"I can believe you actually cared about that abomination"
"This abomination had saved your hide when Freeza was trying to kill us"
"It was his fault anyway!"
"You are such a…" Bulma couldn't finish her phrase because they heard and felt a big detonation. They run to where it had come from.
Vegeta's GR was only pile of rumble. Bulma was running toward it calling the prince's name she stared moving the rocks around to look for him, her boyfriend was stunned by the way she was acting. A hand came out of the rumble than an arm the prince had came out he could barely stand on his feet he looked at the stunned couple.
"You are ok" said Bulma relieved
"Of course I am why wouldn't be" answered the arrogant prince.
"Why you jerk! You almost wreck my house what are you trying to prove?" added Bulma angry for answer the older Saiya-jin just collapse.
"Oh no you are hurt!" she said holding him in her arm.
"You got to stopped doing this to yourself!"
"I've got to it I want to be stronger than Kakorott"
"Sure, but how can you do that if you died. Now listen to me you need to rest!"
"Are you ordering me around?!" he said trying to get out of her arms only to fell on the floor unconscious. Yamcha was staring at the scene speechless.
Vegeta was lying lifeless in his hospital bed, where Bulma in her parents was looking after him.
"Do you think is going to be ok" said Bulma to her dad
"The only thing he didn't bruise up is his eyebrows, Those Saiya-jins are amazing race, and they are practically indestructible.
"Oh! Poor Vegeta!" Cried Mrs. Brief
"Common honey, let him rest"
"You lunkhead!" said Bulma leaving the room.
He stayed in a coma for several days, and Bulma spent almost all of her time looking after him. She had left to get something to eat only to find Yamcha in the lobby.
"Hey what are you doing here?"
"I was going to asked you the same question. Your mother told me that you were here"
"Ok"
"I can't understand why you so worried about that jerk!"
"Well someone has to take care of him"
"And the good Bulma volunteered herself! I barely see you anymore and you don't come cheer me up at my games anymore, I fell neglected"
"Don't worry you are the man of my live I'll come see you play Friday ok" she said kissing him. Yamcha kissed her back and left. She went to the gift shop buying flowers, when she came back to Vegeta's room she saw a young stagier running out of the room crying. Surprised she entered the room only to see the prince awake.
"What on the world I am doing here?"
"Oh you are awake, how do you feel?" said Bulma ignoring his question.
"What kind of stupid question is this?" "You scared that poor girl away; she's only here to help"
"I don't want any help from you weakling I just want to get of here"
"I don't think you can leave yet you still hurt you need time to recuperate" Vegeta tried to get out of his bed only to felt back he had a hard time to not to screamed in pain. "I am sorry you'll have to heal the old fashion way"
"You stupid earthling are still using that archaic method of healing"
"Sorry we couldn't do better than this your majesty"
She walk pass his bed and put the flowers in a vase. "What are those for?" said Vegeta looking at him
"There are flowers"
"I know what they are I am not stupid"
"Well here on Earth when someone is a hospital his friends bring gift or flowers for him. So those are for you" she said smiling, but Vegeta was thinking about blasting them up if he could.
"You look agitated maybe you should relax" for answered Vegeta's stomach started to growl
"Oh my you should be starving I am going to get some food"
She came back twenty minutes later with a tray filled with food.
"What took you so long?"
"I was talking to the personnel I convince them that I'll take care of you myself"
"Unh why?"
"Because I know you'll going to make their lives a living nightmare, so like it seems that I am the only one who is capable to deal with you"
"Oh puh-lease"
"Don't think you are going to scared me? Now open wide"
"What I don't need your help to eat!"
"So go right ahead" she said putting the tray on front of him. He tried to reach for it but couldn't with all those bandages and every muscle of his body was hurting like hell!
"Maybe if you want I can still ask a bottle for you" said Bulma smirking. Vegeta look at her defeated and open his mouth.
"That is much better"
For the past three days Bulma was playing Vegeta's private nurse, and maybe he wouldn't never admitted it but he like the way she's taking care of him.
'I have to get out of here I think I am loosing my mind'. His relationship with the blue-haired woman had taken another form they were almost like friend. They could spend the whole afternoon talking; well Bulma did most of the talking. Sometime she would ask him questions about his past when he was a child. He would answer some of her question leaving out the painful memories.
One day Bulma came back to his room to feed him only to find an empty room.
'I can't believe this' she said running out of the hospital get in her car and drove home. He found him in his new GR machine training. Vegeta was hovering in the air when she appeared in the spaceship screen and started yelling at him.
"Vegeta you are in no shape to be doing this right now, why don't you listen to me in go get some rest!"
"Stop pestering me around woman!" he said but lost his concentration and fell hard on the floor.
"You know I am right, you maybe not want to believe it but you are made of flesh in bone like anyone else, now get yourself back to bed!"
"Why don't you leave me alone? I am not of your stupid friends that you can order around"
"Ok be that way, and don't expect me to take care of you when you get hurt!" she said switching the monitor off
"I think that when he was acting nice and all was the pain killer talking" she said with a sigh. "I promise Yamcha that I'll watch him game this Friday maybe now I could go". She said walking to her room
As promise Bulma bought a baseball ticket to go watch her boyfriend's game. She had a good deal of trouble getting a sit the stadium was booked.
"I didn't know how popular his team was, look at all this people!" The game had started and every group was cheering its favorite. But Yamcha team was loosing until he got to play. When he walked to his spot Bulma was going to cheer for him but was shut up by the cheer of a thousand of Yamcha's fan.
"What on the world…" the game was over and Bulma was trying to reach out for his boyfriends only to get stomped by all the women in the stadium. She couldn't see him so she went home weary, and just left herself fall on the couch.
In the morning Yamcha came to see her.
"Hey Bulma I didn't see you at the game!"
"If you have bordered to look at the young woman in the ground getting stomp maybe you'll see me" answered Bulma angry.
"Sorry babe the crowd could be violent sometime"
"Tell that to my poor feet" she said
"Well what about going for some romantic diner, I know a place that can do just the thing"
"I don't know I should start helping my dad, he really overwhelm by his work, and with Vegeta that require more and more devices to train and all"
"Why every time I ask you out you have mention that arrogant jerk. I don't know how you put out with him"
"But Yamcha I am the only friend he got!"
"Some friendship! What about me? What about my needs?"
"Don't pull that on me Yamcha I know you. Ok I'll go with you tonight, better not deceiving me"
"You won't regret it I promise!"
That night Bulma put herself at her best which was pretty difficult because she's always is. She had bought an expensive dress just for tonight. It was a long black dress that fit her like a glove. The dress was spit in two and was holding together by a few interlacing thread at each side of her body but stopped had mid thigh and she was wearing the assorting high heel. She was absolutely gorgeous. Vegeta had just come out of his exhausting work out and was heading to the kitchen when he saw her. The prince was speechless; he could take his eyes out of her. She was amused by the look on his face,
"You should see the face you are making Vegeta you are hilarious" said Bulma laughing. Feeling humiliated the prince just turned his back in went get some food, not without giving her a last look before living. Yamcha was on the door, and Bulma went to get it.
"You've got to be kidding me!" Yamcha had a whole new look; he's now have short spiking hair, he was wearing black leather pants boots and jacket, he had a lot of jewelry on him, he look like much like a rock star than a martial artist.
"Hi babe you look dashing tonight" he said a suave voice.
"Are you out of your mind?"
"Common babe will miss the show" he said him pulling her toward him put a big kiss on her leaps and carried her outside. Vegeta who was watching the whole scene was astonished, when he finally find he composer he said "What the hell this is about, Earthling are crazy". He shook his head and took another bite out of his sandwich.
Bulma and Yamcha had a wild night. People was calling his name asking him for his autograph everywhere he went he was a celebrity, Bulma could barely keep up with all this. After a whole week of that chaotic life Bulma finally asked "When are you going to tell me what this is all about?"
"What don't you like the new me? I thought that's the way you like your man almost like your prince arrogant bad boys wearing tight clothes and all" He said yelling
"Oh Yamcha!" said Bulma
Like to make Bulma's point a song of Avril Lavigne started playing in the radio (Complicated)
Chill out, whatcha yelling for
Lay back its all been done before
And if you could only let it be
You will see
I like you the way you are
When we're driving in your car
And you're talking to me one on one
But you become
Somebody else round everyone else
You're watching your back
Like you can't relax
You're trying to be cool
You look like a fool to me
Tell me...
Why'd you have to go and make things so complicated
I see the way you're
Acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this you
You fall and you crawl
And you break and you take
What you get and you turn it into
Honesty promise me I'm never gonna find ya fake it
No no no...
You come over unannounced
Dressed up like you're something else
Where you are ain't where it's at
You see, you're making me
Laugh out when you strike your pose
Take off all your preppy clothes!
You know you're not fooling anyone
When you become
Somebody else round everyone else
You're watchin' your back
Like you can't relax
You're tryin to be cool
You look like a fool to me
Tell me...
Why'd you have to go and make things so complicated
I see the way you're
Acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this you
You fall and you crawl
And you break and you take
What you get and you turn it into
Honesty promise me I'm never gonna find ya fake it
No no no...
"I am sorry Bulma I just don't want to lose you that's all you know all do anything for you"
"You are not going to lose me, you idiot I love you"
"Well if that is true…He kneel before her took and take out a box in his pocket opened it and offer it to Bulma
