The Love I Never Knew

Chapter 4

Vegeta was heading towards Bulma's house thinking to himself.

This feels awkward, my best friend is going to act as my pretend girlfriend. Weird. I wonder if Bulma's ready? Well, there is only one way to find out. Get there at top speed. Vegeta raised his power and flew faster than before.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Alright Bulma, Vegeta will be here any minute now, stay upstairs so that when he arrives, will give you a grand entrance, okay?" Chi-Chi said to her friend.

"Grand entrance, huh, very funny," Bulma said rolling her eyes.

"Just get up that darn stairs," Chi-Chi said pointing at it. "Fine," Bulma replied walking up the stairs.

The doorbell rang and Chi-Chi went downstairs to get it.

"Oh hi Vegeta," Chi-Chi said looking at her friend's outfit.

He was wearing some blue baggy jeans and a white shirt.

"Where's Bulma?" Vegeta asked looking for her.

"She'll be down in a bit," Chi-Chi said calling for Bulma.

"Bulma, you can come down now, Vegeta is here," Chi-Chi shouted out so Bulma could hear.

Vegeta waited for Bulma to come, so he decided to sit down for awhile. His back was away from the stairs, so he couldn't see Bulma.

Bulma walked down from the stairs hoping not to trip.

She saw Vegeta's back turned around.

"Ahem," Bulma cleared her throat out loud. Vegeta turned around and was stunned by her beauty.

"Wow!!" was all he could say.

"Excuse me, do you want to get smack," Bulma said distracting him.

"Umm… you just look different, I mean it's so not you," Vegeta said having some difficulty saying it.

"Thanks, now can we go cause I'm hungry," Bulma said walking up to him.

"Huh, umm….yeah," Vegeta said taking her hand.

"Hey, why are you holding my hand?" Bulma asked looking at their hands.

"We're suppose to be pretending that we're a couple remember, now play along," Vegeta said taking her up and flying away.

"Vegeta, can't we use a fricken car?" Bulma said looking down at how high they were.

"No, this is much faster," Vegeta said speeding up.

Chi-Chi giggled as Vegeta took Bulma up and flew away. She decided to go back home. She took a capsule out containing a car and drove away.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Hey guys," Yamcha shouted out.

"Hey Yamcha," Goku shouted back.

"I was wondering if you guys all want to come with me to this new restaurant downtown?" he asked his friends.

"Umm…that's okay Yamcha, but thanks for the offer," Krillin said saying no politely.

"Yeah, I'm tired," said Goku yawning.

"Alright then, I'll go there by myself," Yamcha said smiling and taking off into the sky.

"Bye," Tien, Piccolo, Krillin, Chaou-zu, and Goku said at the same time.

"I'm tired," Goku said yawning again.

"Yeah, let's get some rest," Tien said walking up to a couch.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Where are we going Vegeta?" Bulma said trying to fix her hair again.

"This new restaurant downtown," Vegeta answered trying hard not to look at her face and her dress.

"I see," Bulma said. "Can we land cause my hair is getting messed up?"

Vegeta landed in front of a restaurant.

"Yeah, we can land now cause we're already here," Vegeta said taking her hand. "Now let the act begin."

Bulma took his hand and followed him inside the restaurant. She couldn't help, but look at what he was wearing and his body. She began to blush.

"Table for two sir?" one of the waiters asked them.

"Yes," Vegeta replied in a very deep voice.

The waiter led both of them to a small booth and handed them the menu. Vegeta as usual ordered everything on it.

Bulma just ordered a salad cause she didn't feel like eating much and Chi-Chi also told her not to eat too much.

"Who is this beautiful girl that you're with," the waiter asked looking at Bulma.

"She's my girlfriend, got a problem with that?" Vegeta asked him looking at Bulma.

"What? Your girlfriend, wow, I guess you weren't gay after all," the waiter said laughing.

He left the table with their order in his hand.

"That was funny," Bulma said giggling.

"Whatever," Vegeta said playing with his glass of water.

"So, Vegeta, umm….you look different," Bulma said looking at his outfit.

"So, do you Bulma, you look really different," Vegeta answered back.

No, you look beautiful. He thought to himself.

The waiter came with all of their food and Vegeta started eating. Bulma took her fork and started eating politely.

"You changed a lot," Vegeta said watching her eat.

"Yup, oh shit, it's Yamcha," Bulma said to Vegeta pointing at Yamcha.

"What is he doing here?" Vegeta said looking at Yamcha.

"I don't know, but he might mess up everything," Bulma said looking at him.

"Let's leave," Vegeta said taking Bulma by the hand.

"Good idea," Bulma said following after him.

When Vegeta and Bulma were about to leave the restaurant, someone tapped them in the shoulder.

"Is this your girlfriend Vegeta, everyone in town is talking about her," Yamcha said looking at Bulma's back.

Bulma turned around and saw a shocked Yamcha.

"Bulma, no way," Yamcha said smiling.

"You guys aren't really a couple," Yamcha said laughing again.

The whole restaurant grew quiet as they watch Bulma, Vegeta, and Yamcha talking.

"Bulma, you're not his girlfriend are you, I mean look at you, you're looking hot," Yamcha said looking at Bulma again.

"Yes, I'm Vegeta's girlfriend now can you make us leave cause we really have to go," Bulma said looking nervous.

"You guys are lying," Yamcha said smiling again.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Hey Krillin, maybe we should've went with Yamcha, I'm bored," Tien said looking outside.

"Where was he going anyways?" "I think he was going to that new restaurant downtown," Krillin answered back.

"WHAT?" Goku yelled out.

"No, he can't, that's where Bulma and Vegeta are going for the pretend date," Goku yelled out again.

"We got to go there then," Piccolo said flying away.

"Yeah, it'll just take us five minutes to get there since, it's like right there," Chaou-zu said pointing to a city close by.

They all flew up to the sky and headed for the restaurant at top speed.

They landed there just in time to see Yamcha talking to them and smiling.

They all went inside to see what was going on.

"Man, we're too late," Goku said sounding really nervous.

"Wow, look at Bulma," Krillin said looking at her.

"She turned out beautiful after all." Tien said eyeing her.

"Well, if you guys are really a couple, then prove it," Yamcha said smiling again.

"How?" Bulma asked him.

"Kiss him," Yamcha said grinning. Everyone gasped including Vegeta and Bulma.
