Painful Affections
Chapter 2- The Child
By- Me (AKA) SaiyanLover
"Vegeta?" He turned and saw Her sitting beside the gravity chamber just as he walked out.
Damn that woman! I told her to leave me alone!
She looked up at him, and he was surprised at what he saw in her eyes.
Determination, Anger, and Accusations
"What the hell did I do now, woman?" he asked, eager to get away from her. She stood up and walked across the grass until she was directly in front of him, staring into his dark eyes.
"I should have known," the contempt in her voice was so blatant that he almost took a step backwards. "I don't know why I was lying to myself. I should have known you would run away.
I knew your personality. I've known what a horrible person you were since you first came to this planet. I should have known I wouldn't be able to change you.
You aren't the type to car e about anyone but yourself, are you, Vegeta. Saiyan Prince," the sarcasm practically dripped off her voice.
No body matters to you except yourself." She narrowed her eyes. "Why should your child be any different?"
The breath left his lungs, his heart stopped beating.
My...son..does that mean? NO!! I refuse to accept it. Even if saiyans can only conceive children with their life mates..there must be some mistake. He looked into her eyes, unforgiving and relentless- so much like his own- and he knew it was true.
He began backing away from her slowly, avoiding the emotions that were swirling inside his body.
"What's the matter, prince? Afraid of becoming a father? Embarrassed that I will be its mother? Or do you just not care?" She looked upon him with such utter contempt that he clenched his eyes shut.
"It doesn't matter, Vegeta. I don't care what answer you give. None of them will make me want you to stay. Go."
So he did.
"Bulma, honey. It's a boy. The voice of her father made her eyes open. She smiled at him.
"Great, he's gonna turn out to be just like his jerk of a father." Dr. Briefs smiled at his daughter's sarcasm.
"I doubt that dear. Oh yes- what about his tail?" Bulma's smile faded.
"Don't worry, Dad. I'll take care of it." He nodded and patted her hand before leaving the room. Bulma turned to gaze out at the early morning sky.
The past eight months had allowed her to do a lot of thinking. And allowed her to make a lot of decisions.
She was no longer worried about Vegeta and whatever decisions he would make. She knew he felt something for her. But she also knew that until he stopped running from his feelings and accepted what had happened, there was nothing she could do to help him along
She also knew that she felt something for him. Although she was totally baffled as to why. But she was afraid to love someone that refused to love her back.
That was the irony of their situation. They both cared for each other, but both were too afraid to admit.
She was no longer sad or angry at him for leaving. She knew it was the only way he would ever accept any of it.
She had already decided that she was quite capable of raising Trunks (the boy's name she had decided on) by herself, if Vegeta did decide to ignore the fact that he had a son.
"Sweetie?" Bulma brought herself out of her thoughts and saw her mother in the doorway holding a bundle in her arms, with Dr. Briefs standing proudly next to her.
Bulma held out her arms and her mother walked over to the bed and set the child in his mother's loving arms.
He was so tiny, and beautiful. He was perfect. She brushed her hand over his head and felt several baby hairs. Upon further inspection, she found that they were purple.
"He's got your hair, Dad." The sound of his mother's voice caused Trunks to open his blue eyes. Dr. Briefs smiled.
"But he has your eyes, daughter." Bulma smiled.
You wouldn't even know this was Vegeta's child She felt movement against her arm and laughed.
Except for the tail suddenly, Trunks let out a yell that a newborn didn't seem capable of producing. Bulma grimaced.
Or his loud mouth.
sorry I haven't updated. My other stories have been neglected too! -_- I had midterms 2 wks ago, and then we had people staying at our house.
Hopefully I'll update Teenage Saiyans and Superheroes within the next week.
Thanks for being so patient with me!!!
