Vegeta was walking to the movies the next day, going to see Benny the bum. He saw people--lot's of them, and Benny's bench--along with lots of other benches, but no Benny. "Benny!" Vegeta said. "Benny, I need to talk about a certain crisis!" No Benny walked up to him, but a police officer did. "Are you Vegeta?" The cop asked. Vegeta nodded. "Sure am. I don't want you, I want Benny." The cop ran a hand through his hair. "Benny's the old black bum who used to hang out here, right?" Vegeta nodded. "Yes, he was. And that matters because.....?" The cop was getting irritaed at Vegeta's insuboordination. "Well, Benny died last night.....and he had a book that said 'Jhonnny Tremain' and it had your name and your wife's name in it."
Vegeta wasn't sure he heard that right. "Sir?" He asked. The policeman said a little louder, "Benny the old black bum died last night. Heart failure, halfway induced by the cold. Wonder how such a poor guy got such an expensive leather jacket?" He held up Vegeta's old jacket. Vegeta wasn't speaking. He was only staring off into space. His lower lip was rembling. "Hey, are you okay?" The cop asked. "If you need something, I've got some Tranquilizers..." But Vegeta just started running. When he was out of sight of any people, he took off. "How could Benny be dead?" He asked himself as he flew. It didn't seem possible! Benny was like...his best friend! He helped Benny! He gave Benny money and a leathewr jacket and he.....just died on him? "Shows how much Benny cares." Said Vegeta, and when he landed at the Capsule Corp he went in his room and didn't talk to anyone for almost a month.
Vegeta was sitting in his room, quiet as usuall, and Bulma knew she had to get Vegeta to talk about why he was sad or he would never get over it. He had barely even talked to her for a month--all since he came home one day looking pale and pasty, his features drawn into a sad looking frown. He had barely spoke, except to shoot insults at Rehmon and bark things at Bra for being a tramp. Bra and Rehmon were currently out at a movie, and Bulma was baby-sitting Kasai, the dragon, for them. The dragon was now about the size of a Trycicle. His wings were growing into him. His wingspan was about 5 feet.
But Bulma had to do something about Vegeta. During the day, he woulden't even let anyone in the room with him. At night, he would barely brush his lips against Bulma's--and they hadn't had sex for a month, eather. So Bulma knew something was wrong, because Vegeta was a horny person. "Vegeta?" Bulma asked as she knocked on the door. "Can I come in? I think it's time we talked about this. It will help, I promise." She heard a noise from inside which sounded like sniffling. "No it won't. Nothing will." She rapped on the door again. "But you havent' even told me what happened! I know it wll help to talk to me about it, so please, just open the door." She heard Vegeta get up off the bed, let her in, and lock the door back. "Hurry." He said. It looked like he had been crying. "Tell me what happened, Vegeta." Bulma said. Vegeta sniffed. "No.I don't want to. Nothing is wrong." Bulma slammed her fist on a dresser. "Vegeta, your barely talking, your barely eating, you never come out of this room, and you never kiss me--we haven't had sex in a month, for Christ's sake!" Vegeta leaned closer to Bulma. "If kissing you is the reason your here, I'll kiss you now, so you can leave me alone." He said. And he kissed her-- it was long, but it had no feeling or passion.
"No, that's not why I'm here." She said. "It DOES matter a lot, but I just want to know what's wrong so I can help." She pulled Vegeta's head into her lap and stroked his hair. He sniffled. "Well.." He said, and he told her the whole stroy. "Oh, Vegeta!" Bulma said. he gathered him in her arms. "It's alright. He's in a better place now, and you'l always remember him." Vegeta stopped sobbing. "You think so?" He asked his wife. "Do you think maybe he sees me? From....the Kai's planet?" Bulma nodded. "Yes, in one of those Crystal Ball thingys. I bet he's looking at you right now, honey." Vegeta beamed. "Do you think he wants me to be sad?" Bulma shook her head. "I think he wants you to move on with your life and give some attention to your wife." She hugged Vegeta tighter. He was grinning. "Thanks a lot, Bulma!" He said. "I feel a lot better! Maybe tonight, we can....make up for lost time." And he went out.
When Vegeta went out, his spirits were lifted......but they fell again. Rehmon--whose leg was all better, now-- was sitting on the couh watching T.V, like he often was now. He was constantly at the Capsule Corp, constantly talking in his naturally loud voice and laughing, too. He liked to play cards, or that was his excuse. And then he would leave on his motorcycle, at 1:00 in the morning, when Vegeta and Bulma and Bra and Trunks were trying to sleep. The roar of the motorcycle usually woke them all up. "Why are you here?" Vegeta asked. Rehmon looked over there and ignored the question. "So, you finally decided to come out of your room and start talking again, huh?" Vegeta sat down on the far end of the couch to watch TV. "Yes, but why are u here?" Rehmon shrugged. "To see Bra." Vegeta looked around. "Bra's not in here. I don't see her anywhere." Rehmon looked around. "I haven't seen her since we came back from the movie. I think she's walking that THING you bought her." Then he took a drink of beer.
"What the--?!" Vegeta said, grabbing the bottle. "This is MY beer! How dare u get into my refrigerator!" Rehmon shrugged. "I'm about to have to go to work. I like to drink before I go." He drank agan, and Vegeta whipped the bottle away and smashed it against the floor. "NO! My beer!" Rehmon said. "geez! Where's the love? I might as well leave now." "You do that!" Vegeta said. Rehmon got up with a frown, put on his leather jacket, and went outside. Vegeta heard the motorcycle start up and Remon speed away. "Yay!" Said Vegeta. "I got rid of him!" And then he went looking for someone else to annoy. Bulma was in the living room, folding towels. He wanted his towels folded, so he decided not to bother her. Instead, he went to Trunks' room. He was typing something on his computer. "What's that?" Asked Vegeta. Trunks was adding some color and font to whatever he was typing. "It's a resume. That guy that mom knows said that the big boss liked my story, so if I have a good resume, maybe I can get a job as a journalist!" Vegeta leaned over into the computer and began to read. Here's what it said: "My name is Trunks Breifs. Even though I grew up in the Ghetto, on the outskirts of East District, I managed to gather enough funds to be able to eat 3 times a week, and clothe myself....kind of. I want to be a journalist because my girlfriend is pregnant, and I want to be able to have enough money to care for them. I may be able to survive only eating 3 times a week, but I don't think a baby can, can you? My father was a drunk, my mother took drugs, and my grandparents were both prostitutes. I live in a slummy apartment that I don't pay for, I just broke a window and snuck in. "
Vegeta looked at the resume. "Trunks, these are all lies!" Trunks laughed and rubbed his hands togather. "I know. The complete opposite of everything. But I think they might hire me better if I just did this. Read on." So Vegeta did. It said:
"My previous experiance is nothing. I used to work at the junkyard, but they payed me old scraps of banana, not money. I managed to smuggle some carrot seeds from the junkyard once and plant them at home, giving me food for a good 2 weeks before winter hit. But then, the guy at the junkyard found out, and I was fired. I never tried another job. My saving are currently $1.45. I'll bet your glad I can hold on to money so well. Oh, wait! I found a dime! Now I have 1.55! I've never held as much money in my life! This is great! This is--"
Vegeta ripped the paper in half and stopped reading. "Trunks, you can't lie on this! They'll find out! The TRUTHFUL side of you is just as nice!" Trunks rolled his eyes. "Easy for you to say." He said. Then he started a new roll of paper.
Vegeta went out of the room, not beleiving what he just saw. Bulma was done folding towels and now she was reading some book on the couch. "Hello Vegeta." She said, and went back to her book. Vegeta sat down by her, breathing in her ear, which Bulma coulden't stand. "Stop it! Your not a Golden Retreiver!!" Vegeta drew back. "Sorry, I didn't mean to." Bulma smiled and put her eyes back in her book. "I'm bored." Said Vegeta. Bulma turned a page. "That's nice." She said. Vegeta sighed. "When will Bra be back?" He asked. Bulma shrugged. "I don't know, honey." She continued reading, squinting her eyes really hard. "Do you think she'll--" "LET ME READ!" Bulma cried. Vegeta jumped baack about 4 feet. "Geez! Sor-ry! My friend Benny dies, and this is the comfort I.." He got to thinking about Benny again. "I hope Benny got to appreciatle the Sunshine he bought with the money I gave him before he died." Vegeta said.
Bulma looked at Vegeta, suprised and angry. "You gave that money to BENNY? That's why the electric bill didn't get payed!" Vegeta was sad. "I know, I'm ashamed.....but he told me he used it to buy Sunshine, whatever that is. I told him, 'Benny, you can't buy sunshine' but he didn't say anything." Bulma's eyes widened and her face went white. "Bulma, are you alright? Is this one of your hot flashes again?" Vegeta waved a hand in front of her face. Bulma was now looking ANGRY. "Vegeta, you gave that man 600 Zeni and he bought Sunshine with it? Vegeta, Sunshine is DRUGS!" Veget stared at her for a minute. "No it's not!" He countered. "Benny was too nice to want to buy drugs!" Bulma whipped her head side to side. "NO, I'm right. He bought drugs." Vegeta just sat there, good and silent. It was something to think about.
Bra came home later, and her stomach ws starting to get bigger because she was 4 months along. She let the dragon off the leash and went into the living room where Vegeta and Bulma were sitting on the couch. Bulma was reading, and Vegeta was staring far ahead. "Papa? Momma? Is everything okay?" Bra asked. "I told Marron she could come over. We're going shopping!" That snapped Vegeta out of his trance. "Shopping? For WHAT?" Bra started toward the stairs. "Baby clothes. Hurry up and get ready; your coming too!" Bulma stopped her. "Wait wait wait....you were just out walking that pet of yours. Your not supposed to walk a whole lot, Bra." Bra shrugged. "I'll take frequent breaks, I promise you. Now hurry it up; Marron will be here any minute!" Now it was Vegeta's turn to stop Bra. "Bra, don't you go out wearing a shirt where your stomach shows. You don't want to flaunt that your pregnant at 16." Bra just shrugged him off and went to get ready, and so did Bulma and Vegeta. .
"Okay! Is everyone ready?" Bra asked. Everyone nodded, including Marron. Marron had arrived wearing some very tight pants and a tube top. She wasn't attractive naturally, but with the makeup and hairstyle she was wearing today, she looked very pretty. "We're ready." Marron said. "Are you bringing Kasai?" Kasai was curled up in his bed. "No, I'm gonna let him sleep today. So, I guess we're--" Bra paused. "Oh, wait. I want Rehmon to come, because he's the baby's dad, and I want him to see what I buy!" She filpped out her cell phone and dialed his number and called him.
"How long is it going to take for HIM to get here?" Vegeta asked. Bra looked at her watch. "Not very long. I'm lucky lawyers can come home any time they want to as long as they aren't with a heavy case load or busy." She glanced at her watch once more. "I've only seen him once." Marron said. "I'm never around when he's over at our house." Bra shrugged. Vegeta was tappng his foot. "Come ON!" He said. "Let's just leave Rehmon." Bulma ebowed Vegeta. "Be nice!" She ordered. Vegeta smirked. "I don't want to drive. Can we fly there? Rehmon can fly holding Bra with Marron on his back, and I can carry you." Bulma nodded. "I don't care. Want some Orbit gum?" Vegeta took some and chewed it while they waited for Rehmon.
They were now at the mall. Rehmon had arrived in his lawyer outfit, so he looked really buisnessy. Vegeta noticed something very strange. Every time Rehmon talked to Marron, he would blush and run his hands through his hair a lot. He was too stupid to read what these signs meant just yet, but he noticed they were there. He thought Bulma did, too, because she kept staring at them weirdly. "What store are we going to go in first?" Bra asked. "Baby Gap." Rehmon said. "They have a lot of Baby Clothes for Landon to wear. Do you ever feel him kick yet?" Bra shook her head. "Nope. Mosly what I feel is nasuea and stomach pains." Rehmon's eyes widened. "You mean that hasn't stopped yet? I'm worried. You should go see another doctor!" Vegeta cut in. "I may not be a doc, but I know that her stomach hurts because the baby is 3/4's Saiyan. Bulma went through the same thing with Trunks and Bra." Bra rolled her eyes. "What difference does it make that my baby has Saiayn blood?" Vegeta shut up, trying to avoid making a yelling fight here, in the middle of the mall.
"Vegeta!" Bulma whispered into his ear. "Come here for a second!" She grabbed a hold of his arm and drug him to a corner. "Notice how whenever Rehmon talks to Marron, he stutters, runs his hands through his hair and blushes!" Vegeta observed Rehmon and Marron having a conversation. Rehmon seemed to be laughing at inappropriate times and blushing and not making eye contact. "I see." Vegeta said. "What about it?" Bulma shoved Vegeta lightly. "I think he likes her!" Vegeta's eyes widned. "But he can't! He likes BRA!" Bulma nodded. "Yes, but he can like 2 women at once! What if he starts liking Marron more....and runs out on our preganant daughter!" Vegeta waved Bulma off. "Bulma, the only reason he's acting like that today is because Marron's shirt is practicly letting her boobs fall out. Plus, Marron is NOT very pretty, which is suprising because of 18's looks." Bulma pointed. "Yes, but Vegeta, with all that makeup on, she looks very pretty!" Vegeta just smiled. "I think your jumping to conclusions, Bulma. It's nothing. It will blow over." Then he lead her back over to the group, where Bra and Rehmon were leaning over a mall map. "Baby Gap is this way." Rehmon said. "No it's not! Your holding the map upside down; it's THIS way!" Rehmon turned it right side up. "Oh, I guess your right. Well, let's go!" "Wait!" Bra said. "I have to make it known that after we're done shopping for baby clothes, we're shopping for clothes for ME!" Vegeta rolled his eyes. "God, Bra, you have enough clothes!" He said. She shook her head. "I do NOT! You can NEVER have enough clothes! Now let's go." She started walking really fast. "Take it easy." Rehmon warned. "You don't wanna have a miscarriage!" Bra grumbled. "Walking isn't gonna hurt Landon. Now come on!" But Rehmon wasn't so sure. "We're taking frequent breaks, okay honey?" Bra nodded. "YES, Rehmon, I hear you."
A policeman blew a whistle and ran over. "Is this man bothering you?" He said to Bra, pointing at Rehmon. "Hell, no! I'm her boyfriend!" Rehmon said. "I was just telling her that she doesn't need to walk a whole bunch while she's carrying a baby!" A look of anger crossed Bra's face as she entered her first pregnancy mood swing. She walked up and pushed the cop. "Sure, Rehmon!" She said. "Tell the cop all our problems! Tell him I'm pregnant at age 16! Go ahead, don't stop NOW! Tell him!" Rehmon blinked with surprise. "Bra, are you okay? What's--" Now she pushed Rehmon. "I'm tired of you annoying me and telling everyon my buisness! Why don't you tell him the baby's name so he can stalk him when he's born!"
Vegeta started forward. He didn't like Rehmon, but he knew how it felt to be yelled at by a pregnant woman. "Bra, calm down!" Vegeta said. "It's no big deal! Your having a mood swing because your pregnant! Now quit it!" Rehmon was touched that Vegeta was defending him. "Thanks, man!" He said. "Don't expect it to happen again!" Vegeta whispered sharply. Rehmon growled. "Bra, go sit down and take a breather. You'll be better." Said Bulma. Bra sat down and was breathing hard. Vegeta walked over to Bulma and Marron went to talk to Rehmon. "What happened?" She asked. Rehmon felt his stomach turn over. He didn't know why this was happening every time she talked to him.
"I-I'm not sure." He said. He felt his face grow hot. Why was this happening? "I was j-just talking to h-h-her, and th-the next thing I k-k- knew, she was yelling at m-huh-me." He ran a hand through his hair in a nervous guesture. His stomach was formed into a tight knot. "It's because she's pregnant." Marron said. Then she turned her heel and went to ask for Bra's side of the story. Rehmon saw her hair tied up in the pink ribbon, and his stomach did another flip. Bra was walking up to him, and the next thing he knew she was kissing him, long and deeply. When she drew back and they were both breathing kind of labored, she said, "I'm sorry. I don't know what came over me!" Rehmon hugged her. "It's okay. It's this pregnancy thing. Don't worry. You'll get through it!" Bra smiled and she and Marron began chattering.
In the Baby Gap, they bought loads of clothes for the baby. They were all name brand and expensive, because Bra woulden't TOUCH anything lower than 30 bucks. "How about these socks?" She asked, picking up a 6 pack of socks that costed 35.75 because they said 'GAP' on them. "Aren't those a little high for socks?" Rehmon asked. "Stop talking like a poor person! Your a lawyer now, Rehmon!" He was sad. "they ARE high for socks." He said as Bra put them in the basket. "How about these diapers?" Vegeta asked. "They have a picture of cookie monster on them." Bra slapped them out of his hand. "We don't need to worry about diapers yet! I'm only 4 months pregnant!" "Why do we need to worry about clothes, then?" Vegeta asked. Bra stared at Vegeta. "Shut up." She said with disgust. Vegeta's blood started to boil. "Do NOT tell me to shut up! I am your father! I--" He ranted on and on throughout that intire store.
They had just came out of Limited Too. "I'm hungry!" Vegeta whined. "I want some food!" Everyone was getting tired of listening to Vegeta whine. "Hush." Bulma said to him. He started to walk toward the food court, but Bulma jerked on his hand, which she was holding. "Not yet. I don't think Bra is ready to eat yet." Vegeta slumped over. "Darn it." Bulma was kind of hungry herself. "Hey, guys, I think me and Vegeta are gonna go eat." Vegeta licked his lips. "I guess we will, too." Said Bra. So they all went to eat.
About 12 o' clock that night, they got home. "I'm tired!" Said Vegeta. "She drug us through that entire stupid mall!" Bra and Rehmon were staggering up the stairs. "Where are you going?" Vegeta asked. "I'm sleeping in Bra's room tonight." Rehmon said. "That's where I'm going." He contiued. "Um, G'night Bra!" Vegeta called. She waved in return, and Vegeta went into silent sobs. "Why me?" He asked himself. Then, he heard Bulma scream. "What? What is it?" He asked, getting up and running into the kitchen with alarm. Bulma pointed into the kitchen. There was a huge bite out of the table, scratch marks in the wallpaper, the refrigerator had been torn open and everything in it consumed, and the pantries were bare. "What happened here?" Vegeta asked, bending and helping Bulma up. "I-I don't know!" Bulma said. "I just walked in, and it was--AGH!" She pointed at the red dragon, Kasai. He was laying on his back, and his belly was big, fat and full. There was a scrap of banana peel hanging out of his mouth. "I guess....he got hungry." Vegeta said. "HUNGRY?!" Bulma asked. "He ate everything in the whole kitchen!" She ran over and slapped the dragon. Then she ran out of the kitchen, threw herself on the couch and sobbed. "Now I have to go to the grocery store again! I just went today!" She beat the couch with both fists. Vegeta patted her on the back.
"It's okay. It's not tomarrow yet." Bulma sobbed harder. "I hate being a wife. I hate being a mother. I hate being a woman! I hate LIFE!" She whied and kicked, but Vegeta picked her up baby-style and carried her up the stairs to their room. "God. Your crying over little things, and your not the one whose preggie." Vegeta sighed. He lowered Bulma down on the bed, whose cheeks were shining with tears. "He ate everything!" She grabed Vegeta and hugged him around the neck. He smiled in her hair. He was really, really horny right now, but he figured that if he tried to make any moves on her right now, she would only cry. So he just decided to go to sleep.
"BLECH!" Bra said from the bathroom. Vegeta heard it. "Oh no." He said to Bulma. They had been laying awake for a while, talking. "Bra's throwing up again." Bulma listened to the noises from the bathroom down the hall. "Poor Bra. I hated morning sickness." Vegeta nodded. "I keep trying to tell her that with a Saiyan baby, her pains will be much worse." Bulma nodded. "And Beleive me, they get worse before they get better. I can still remember it!" Vegeta didn't want to talk about that. It was a feminine problem which he didn't much understand. "Aw well. Let's have sex." Vegeta said. Bulma shook her head wearily. "No. Not right now. I know we haven't in a month because you've been so depressed over Benny--"
The mention of Benny's name caused Vegeta's lip to tremble. "Benny.....oh.....Benny, my faithful friend who always bought sunshine..." He was deep in thought about Benny. "Vegeta, do you know where Benny's buried?" Bulma asked. Vegeta shook his head. "But I need to pay tribute to him. Pay my respects. Maybe I'll just go to the bench where he used to live and give him some flowers." "He LIVED under a bench?" Bulma asked. "Jesus." She mumbled. Vegeta was sitting on the bed, pulling on some pants. "I'm gonna go. You want to come?" Bulma came up and kissed Vegeta. "Yes, I'd love to come. You need someone there with u when you do such a horrible and sad thing." She started getting dressed, too. They tried to ignore the noises coming from the bathroom until Bra burst into the room.
"Sorry about that." Bra said. "Me and Rehmon had sex a few hours ago. I guess all the movement was too much." "BRA!" Bulma said. "Me and your father don't want to hear about stuff like that! Get out of here, right now!" Bra rolled her eyes and walked out as Vegeta fell stiffly on his back on the bed. Bulma climbed over him. "Vegeta, are you alright?" She asked, lightly slapping the unconsious man's face. His eyes fluttered open. "Sure I'm okay." He said. "What happened again?"
Bulma and Vegeta were standing at the bench. It was the next morning. "And um.....I wish you peace, Benny." Vegeta said. Bulma found it rather funny he was talking to a bench. Vegeta threw the flowers on the bench. "Jesus, I wish I knew where Benny was buried." He said. "Then I could pay my proper respects." Just as he was sighing and wishing he knew where he was buried, a cop walked up. "Something wrong, here, kids?" He asked. They shook their heads. "We wanna know where the old black Bum, Benny, is buried. You know, the one who used to live here?" Said Bulma. The cop waved toward the Movie Theater, which had closed a month ago due to them smelling Marajuina constantly. "This old deserted bench? Think I remember the guy.....He's buried in St. Green cemetery, right down the street. His headstone is really small, and all it says is, 'To the old black bum: May the lord bless you and keep you, whoever ur lord may be'. Vegeta nodded. "Thank you!" He said. The cop rushed off into his car and drove off.
"Put your flowers down, Bulma, and then we'll go to his grave." Vegeta said. Bulma rolled her eyes. "This is stupid," She said, "Your going crazy because Bra's pregnant, and now you want me to put flowers on--" She stopped. Vegeta's hand was on her butt! "Hey, what are you doing?" Bulma asked. "Stop copping feels and let me put these flowers down." Vegeta had watched her bend over, and her skirt was so short that Vegeta could see the line of her panties, and it made him horny. Bulma put the flowers down and stood up. "There." She said. "Now can we--" Vegeta was looking at Bulma really funny. "What's wrong with you, Vegeta?" Bulma asked. "Are you okay?" She was getting ready to back up and go away, when Vegeta swept over there and picked her up baby style. "I know how to walk, you know!" Bulma said. "What are you doing?" Vegeta started kissing her on the face and neck. "What the--?!" Bulma said. She thought Vegeta had really gone inside. "Vegeta, we're standing right next to a dead man's house!" He didn't really wanna think about that right now. He hadn't had sex in over a month and he was horny. "Vegeta, what if somebody sees us?" Bulma asked. "What then? We'll be arrested for indecent exposure! That's 6 months! AGH! Don't touch me there in public!" Vegeta wasn't listening. "VEGETA! This guy is dead! You understand? We can't have sex on his bench!" But he was kissing her everywhere and makiing her sop and wet. "Nobody will see us." Vegeta said. "And if they do, we'll bribe em'. Now come on." Bulma thought about that. She WAS horny."Oh, alright, but if--AGH!" Vegeta layed her down on the bench and started making out with her and groping her all over the place. "RAPE!" Bulma said, but she was joking. Then they did the nasty on top of a dead man's house, a bench.
Bulma woke up later. She was laying on top of Vegeta, half naked, in public. ON TOP OF BENNY'S BENCH! "Vegeta!" Bulma said. "Wake up!" She was guilty that she'd had sex on top of a dead man's house. Vegeta's eyes popped open. "Hi, honey." He said. "What's up!" Bulma slapped Vegeta's chest and began putting her clothes back on. (THIS ISN'T NUDITY, SO HA HA IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE RATED R! I SAID SHE WAS 'HALF NAKED!') "What's up? We just had sex on top of a dead man's house, that's what's up! He's gonna haunt us!" Vegeta's eyes widened and he sat up, and zipped his fly. "Really?" He asked. "Haunt us? Is that even real? Seriously, Bulma, I--" Bulma threw her shoe at him. "Vegeta, when you do things like that on top of someone's death bed....THINGS will start happening! Bad things! We should have never done that!" "But you liked it." Vegeta said. "I know you did." Bulma rolled her eyes. "Yes, I did....but that's not what matters!" Vegeta pulled his jeans on.
"I can't find my shirt." He said. "And we still have to go to Benny's grave." Bulma groaned. "VEGGIE! We cannot go to Benny's grave after having sex on his deathbed! He'll haunt us there!" Vegeta was getting mighty scared about ths haunting thing. "M-Maybe if we go to his grave, and be super nice, he'll forgive us!" Bulma nodded. "Yeah! We'll go and you can say your sorry for squirting on the bench..." "hey! It takes 2 people to do the deed!" Said Vegeta. "It's not only my fault! and I still can't find my shirt!" "Come without one on, then!" Said Bulma. She grabbed his hand. "But I'm SCARED!" Vegeta said. "I don't want to go!" But Bulma had already drug him into the car.
They were walking through the cemetery, looking for Benny's grave. "Man, this place is creepy!" Said Vegeta. "How can dead people live here?" Bulma rolled her eyes. "Just concentrate on finding Benny, and you'll be all set." Vegeta looked around. "Look! All the leaves are moving! Look! That one just fell and no one touched it! AH!" "It's called the wind, Vegeta." Bulma said. "And it's autumn time. The leaves fall in Autumn." Vegeta nodded. "Oh." He said. "Well let's just get this over with so we can go home. I hate this stupid place." He kicked a leaf and a snake slithered out. "AH! It's Benny!" He said, jumping up and grabbing the limb of a tree. He just hung there. "Come down now, Veggie." Bulma said. "We needa get home." She tugged on his boot.
He dropped. "OW!" Vegeta said. "That hurt!" Then he quickly scampered to his feet. "Bulma, please let's hurry." She ran over and grabbed his hand. "Alright." She said in a stammer as they approached Benny's grave. The earth was tender and looked reshly tilled. "You can tell it's a fresh grave." Bulma said. She picked a flower and bent over to place it on the grave. Suddenly, the cemetery gate slammed shut with a *BANG*! It was a perfectly harmless sound, that had nothing to do with ghosts, but Vegeta went nuts. "AH! It's the ghost of Benny!" He jumped in front of Bulma, protectivly. Bulma was screaming. "AH! We're sorry, Benny!" And they both threw their flowers down and ran like hell.
"Your parents will be so happy!" Rehmon said. "Yes, I know!" Bra joined in. "Wait till they get home and find out! I can hardly wait to see the look on their faces!" Rehmon smoothed back his hair. "I'll bet they are. With a lawyer living with them, twice the income will be coming in." Bra hugged her boyfriend. "And Kasai is happy, too because his Rehmon can live here!" She picked up the dragon, picked a wood chip out of his long teeth, and hugged him. Smoke was furling out of it's nose. "He's getting so big." Bra said. "Look at his wings--he'll be able to fly in no time!" She gave Kasai one final hug and handed him to Rehmon. She crossed her hands over her jutting belly. It was poochy, but not fat and was hanging a little over her belt. "Now we need to find out where your dresser can go." She said to Rehmon. "And your excersise machine, too." They got back to work. "Yes, my mom and dad will be so happy that you are moving in."
"WE'RE HOOOME!" Vegeta said, busting into the front door with his shoulder and sending he and Bulma rolling across the floor until they came to a stop at the back of the couch. Bra slid down the banister, followed by Rehmon, and looked them over. "Jesus! Are you two okay?" She asked. "Your breathing like you ran a mile!" Bulma was huffing and puffing, and so was Vegeta. "We probley......did...*He* *hoo* *He* *hoo*..." Bulma said. "Yeah.....from......St....Green......Cemetery." Vegeta said. Bra's eyes got HUGE. "St. Green Cemetery is THREE miles away! You ran THREE MILES? why?" Bulma and Vegeta caught their breath and told her. "Oh." Bra said. "So you guys got freaky on a bum's bench and now your afraid a ghost is after u? Well I've got news, too!" Bulma and Vegeta looked up. "Yes....what...is....it?"
"Rehmon's moving in!" Bulma and Vegeta spoke at the same time. Here's what Bulma said: 'well that's wonderful, honey!' and here's what Vegeta said:'that's f*cking awful!'. So it came out interesting sounding. "WHY?" Vegeta roared. "Why me? 1st I have to live with a brat who writes fake resumes, then a girl who gos and gets herself pregnant at 16, now a MAN WHO RIDES A HARLY? It's too much!" Vegeta ripped out a patch of hair and stormed out of the room.

____________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________
Vegeta was walking to the movies the next day, going to see Benny the bum. He saw people--lot's of them, and Benny's bench--along with lots of other benches, but no Benny. "Benny!" Vegeta said. "Benny, I need to talk about a certain crisis!" No Benny walked up to him, but a police officer did. "Are you Vegeta?" The cop asked. Vegeta nodded. "Sure am. I don't want you, I want Benny." The cop ran a hand through his hair. "Benny's the old black bum who used to hang out here, right?" Vegeta nodded. "Yes, he was. And that matters because.....?" The cop was getting irritaed at Vegeta's insuboordination. "Well, Benny died last night.....and he had a book that said 'Jhonnny Tremain' and it had your name and your wife's name in it."
Vegeta wasn't sure he heard that right. "Sir?" He asked. The policeman said a little louder, "Benny the old black bum died last night. Heart failure, halfway induced by the cold. Wonder how such a poor guy got such an expensive leather jacket?" He held up Vegeta's old jacket. Vegeta wasn't speaking. He was only staring off into space. His lower lip was rembling. "Hey, are you okay?" The cop asked. "If you need something, I've got some Tranquilizers..." But Vegeta just started running. When he was out of sight of any people, he took off. "How could Benny be dead?" He asked himself as he flew. It didn't seem possible! Benny was like...his best friend! He helped Benny! He gave Benny money and a leathewr jacket and he.....just died on him? "Shows how much Benny cares." Said Vegeta, and when he landed at the Capsule Corp he went in his room and didn't talk to anyone for almost a month.
Vegeta was sitting in his room, quiet as usuall, and Bulma knew she had to get Vegeta to talk about why he was sad or he would never get over it. He had barely even talked to her for a month--all since he came home one day looking pale and pasty, his features drawn into a sad looking frown. He had barely spoke, except to shoot insults at Rehmon and bark things at Bra for being a tramp. Bra and Rehmon were currently out at a movie, and Bulma was baby-sitting Kasai, the dragon, for them. The dragon was now about the size of a Trycicle. His wings were growing into him. His wingspan was about 5 feet.
But Bulma had to do something about Vegeta. During the day, he woulden't even let anyone in the room with him. At night, he would barely brush his lips against Bulma's--and they hadn't had sex for a month, eather. So Bulma knew something was wrong, because Vegeta was a horny person. "Vegeta?" Bulma asked as she knocked on the door. "Can I come in? I think it's time we talked about this. It will help, I promise." She heard a noise from inside which sounded like sniffling. "No it won't. Nothing will." She rapped on the door again. "But you havent' even told me what happened! I know it wll help to talk to me about it, so please, just open the door." She heard Vegeta get up off the bed, let her in, and lock the door back. "Hurry." He said. It looked like he had been crying. "Tell me what happened, Vegeta." Bulma said. Vegeta sniffed. "No.I don't want to. Nothing is wrong." Bulma slammed her fist on a dresser. "Vegeta, your barely talking, your barely eating, you never come out of this room, and you never kiss me--we haven't had sex in a month, for Christ's sake!" Vegeta leaned closer to Bulma. "If kissing you is the reason your here, I'll kiss you now, so you can leave me alone." He said. And he kissed her-- it was long, but it had no feeling or passion.
"No, that's not why I'm here." She said. "It DOES matter a lot, but I just want to know what's wrong so I can help." She pulled Vegeta's head into her lap and stroked his hair. He sniffled. "Well.." He said, and he told her the whole stroy. "Oh, Vegeta!" Bulma said. he gathered him in her arms. "It's alright. He's in a better place now, and you'l always remember him." Vegeta stopped sobbing. "You think so?" He asked his wife. "Do you think maybe he sees me? From....the Kai's planet?" Bulma nodded. "Yes, in one of those Crystal Ball thingys. I bet he's looking at you right now, honey." Vegeta beamed. "Do you think he wants me to be sad?" Bulma shook her head. "I think he wants you to move on with your life and give some attention to your wife." She hugged Vegeta tighter. He was grinning. "Thanks a lot, Bulma!" He said. "I feel a lot better! Maybe tonight, we can....make up for lost time." And he went out.
When Vegeta went out, his spirits were lifted......but they fell again. Rehmon--whose leg was all better, now-- was sitting on the couh watching T.V, like he often was now. He was constantly at the Capsule Corp, constantly talking in his naturally loud voice and laughing, too. He liked to play cards, or that was his excuse. And then he would leave on his motorcycle, at 1:00 in the morning, when Vegeta and Bulma and Bra and Trunks were trying to sleep. The roar of the motorcycle usually woke them all up. "Why are you here?" Vegeta asked. Rehmon looked over there and ignored the question. "So, you finally decided to come out of your room and start talking again, huh?" Vegeta sat down on the far end of the couch to watch TV. "Yes, but why are u here?" Rehmon shrugged. "To see Bra." Vegeta looked around. "Bra's not in here. I don't see her anywhere." Rehmon looked around. "I haven't seen her since we came back from the movie. I think she's walking that THING you bought her." Then he took a drink of beer.
"What the--?!" Vegeta said, grabbing the bottle. "This is MY beer! How dare u get into my refrigerator!" Rehmon shrugged. "I'm about to have to go to work. I like to drink before I go." He drank agan, and Vegeta whipped the bottle away and smashed it against the floor. "NO! My beer!" Rehmon said. "geez! Where's the love? I might as well leave now." "You do that!" Vegeta said. Rehmon got up with a frown, put on his leather jacket, and went outside. Vegeta heard the motorcycle start up and Remon speed away. "Yay!" Said Vegeta. "I got rid of him!" And then he went looking for someone else to annoy. Bulma was in the living room, folding towels. He wanted his towels folded, so he decided not to bother her. Instead, he went to Trunks' room. He was typing something on his computer. "What's that?" Asked Vegeta. Trunks was adding some color and font to whatever he was typing. "It's a resume. That guy that mom knows said that the big boss liked my story, so if I have a good resume, maybe I can get a job as a journalist!" Vegeta leaned over into the computer and began to read. Here's what it said: "My name is Trunks Breifs. Even though I grew up in the Ghetto, on the outskirts of East District, I managed to gather enough funds to be able to eat 3 times a week, and clothe myself....kind of. I want to be a journalist because my girlfriend is pregnant, and I want to be able to have enough money to care for them. I may be able to survive only eating 3 times a week, but I don't think a baby can, can you? My father was a drunk, my mother took drugs, and my grandparents were both prostitutes. I live in a slummy apartment that I don't pay for, I just broke a window and snuck in. "
Vegeta looked at the resume. "Trunks, these are all lies!" Trunks laughed and rubbed his hands togather. "I know. The complete opposite of everything. But I think they might hire me better if I just did this. Read on." So Vegeta did. It said:
"My previous experiance is nothing. I used to work at the junkyard, but they payed me old scraps of banana, not money. I managed to smuggle some carrot seeds from the junkyard once and plant them at home, giving me food for a good 2 weeks before winter hit. But then, the guy at the junkyard found out, and I was fired. I never tried another job. My saving are currently $1.45. I'll bet your glad I can hold on to money so well. Oh, wait! I found a dime! Now I have 1.55! I've never held as much money in my life! This is great! This is--"
Vegeta ripped the paper in half and stopped reading. "Trunks, you can't lie on this! They'll find out! The TRUTHFUL side of you is just as nice!" Trunks rolled his eyes. "Easy for you to say." He said. Then he started a new roll of paper.
Vegeta went out of the room, not beleiving what he just saw. Bulma was done folding towels and now she was reading some book on the couch. "Hello Vegeta." She said, and went back to her book. Vegeta sat down by her, breathing in her ear, which Bulma coulden't stand. "Stop it! Your not a Golden Retreiver!!" Vegeta drew back. "Sorry, I didn't mean to." Bulma smiled and put her eyes back in her book. "I'm bored." Said Vegeta. Bulma turned a page. "That's nice." She said. Vegeta sighed. "When will Bra be back?" He asked. Bulma shrugged. "I don't know, honey." She continued reading, squinting her eyes really hard. "Do you think she'll--" "LET ME READ!" Bulma cried. Vegeta jumped baack about 4 feet. "Geez! Sor-ry! My friend Benny dies, and this is the comfort I.." He got to thinking about Benny again. "I hope Benny got to appreciatle the Sunshine he bought with the money I gave him before he died." Vegeta said.
Bulma looked at Vegeta, suprised and angry. "You gave that money to BENNY? That's why the electric bill didn't get payed!" Vegeta was sad. "I know, I'm ashamed.....but he told me he used it to buy Sunshine, whatever that is. I told him, 'Benny, you can't buy sunshine' but he didn't say anything." Bulma's eyes widened and her face went white. "Bulma, are you alright? Is this one of your hot flashes again?" Vegeta waved a hand in front of her face. Bulma was now looking ANGRY. "Vegeta, you gave that man 600 Zeni and he bought Sunshine with it? Vegeta, Sunshine is DRUGS!" Veget stared at her for a minute. "No it's not!" He countered. "Benny was too nice to want to buy drugs!" Bulma whipped her head side to side. "NO, I'm right. He bought drugs." Vegeta just sat there, good and silent. It was something to think about.
Bra came home later, and her stomach ws starting to get bigger because she was 4 months along. She let the dragon off the leash and went into the living room where Vegeta and Bulma were sitting on the couch. Bulma was reading, and Vegeta was staring far ahead. "Papa? Momma? Is everything okay?" Bra asked. "I told Marron she could come over. We're going shopping!" That snapped Vegeta out of his trance. "Shopping? For WHAT?" Bra started toward the stairs. "Baby clothes. Hurry up and get ready; your coming too!" Bulma stopped her. "Wait wait wait....you were just out walking that pet of yours. Your not supposed to walk a whole lot, Bra." Bra shrugged. "I'll take frequent breaks, I promise you. Now hurry it up; Marron will be here any minute!" Now it was Vegeta's turn to stop Bra. "Bra, don't you go out wearing a shirt where your stomach shows. You don't want to flaunt that your pregnant at 16." Bra just shrugged him off and went to get ready, and so did Bulma and Vegeta. .
"Okay! Is everyone ready?" Bra asked. Everyone nodded, including Marron. Marron had arrived wearing some very tight pants and a tube top. She wasn't attractive naturally, but with the makeup and hairstyle she was wearing today, she looked very pretty. "We're ready." Marron said. "Are you bringing Kasai?" Kasai was curled up in his bed. "No, I'm gonna let him sleep today. So, I guess we're--" Bra paused. "Oh, wait. I want Rehmon to come, because he's the baby's dad, and I want him to see what I buy!" She filpped out her cell phone and dialed his number and called him.
"How long is it going to take for HIM to get here?" Vegeta asked. Bra looked at her watch. "Not very long. I'm lucky lawyers can come home any time they want to as long as they aren't with a heavy case load or busy." She glanced at her watch once more. "I've only seen him once." Marron said. "I'm never around when he's over at our house." Bra shrugged. Vegeta was tappng his foot. "Come ON!" He said. "Let's just leave Rehmon." Bulma ebowed Vegeta. "Be nice!" She ordered. Vegeta smirked. "I don't want to drive. Can we fly there? Rehmon can fly holding Bra with Marron on his back, and I can carry you." Bulma nodded. "I don't care. Want some Orbit gum?" Vegeta took some and chewed it while they waited for Rehmon.
They were now at the mall. Rehmon had arrived in his lawyer outfit, so he looked really buisnessy. Vegeta noticed something very strange. Every time Rehmon talked to Marron, he would blush and run his hands through his hair a lot. He was too stupid to read what these signs meant just yet, but he noticed they were there. He thought Bulma did, too, because she kept staring at them weirdly. "What store are we going to go in first?" Bra asked. "Baby Gap." Rehmon said. "They have a lot of Baby Clothes for Landon to wear. Do you ever feel him kick yet?" Bra shook her head. "Nope. Mosly what I feel is nasuea and stomach pains." Rehmon's eyes widened. "You mean that hasn't stopped yet? I'm worried. You should go see another doctor!" Vegeta cut in. "I may not be a doc, but I know that her stomach hurts because the baby is 3/4's Saiyan. Bulma went through the same thing with Trunks and Bra." Bra rolled her eyes. "What difference does it make that my baby has Saiayn blood?" Vegeta shut up, trying to avoid making a yelling fight here, in the middle of the mall.
"Vegeta!" Bulma whispered into his ear. "Come here for a second!" She grabbed a hold of his arm and drug him to a corner. "Notice how whenever Rehmon talks to Marron, he stutters, runs his hands through his hair and blushes!" Vegeta observed Rehmon and Marron having a conversation. Rehmon seemed to be laughing at inappropriate times and blushing and not making eye contact. "I see." Vegeta said. "What about it?" Bulma shoved Vegeta lightly. "I think he likes her!" Vegeta's eyes widned. "But he can't! He likes BRA!" Bulma nodded. "Yes, but he can like 2 women at once! What if he starts liking Marron more....and runs out on our preganant daughter!" Vegeta waved Bulma off. "Bulma, the only reason he's acting like that today is because Marron's shirt is practicly letting her boobs fall out. Plus, Marron is NOT very pretty, which is suprising because of 18's looks." Bulma pointed. "Yes, but Vegeta, with all that makeup on, she looks very pretty!" Vegeta just smiled. "I think your jumping to conclusions, Bulma. It's nothing. It will blow over." Then he lead her back over to the group, where Bra and Rehmon were leaning over a mall map. "Baby Gap is this way." Rehmon said. "No it's not! Your holding the map upside down; it's THIS way!" Rehmon turned it right side up. "Oh, I guess your right. Well, let's go!" "Wait!" Bra said. "I have to make it known that after we're done shopping for baby clothes, we're shopping for clothes for ME!" Vegeta rolled his eyes. "God, Bra, you have enough clothes!" He said. She shook her head. "I do NOT! You can NEVER have enough clothes! Now let's go." She started walking really fast. "Take it easy." Rehmon warned. "You don't wanna have a miscarriage!" Bra grumbled. "Walking isn't gonna hurt Landon. Now come on!" But Rehmon wasn't so sure. "We're taking frequent breaks, okay honey?" Bra nodded. "YES, Rehmon, I hear you."
A policeman blew a whistle and ran over. "Is this man bothering you?" He said to Bra, pointing at Rehmon. "Hell, no! I'm her boyfriend!" Rehmon said. "I was just telling her that she doesn't need to walk a whole bunch while she's carrying a baby!" A look of anger crossed Bra's face as she entered her first pregnancy mood swing. She walked up and pushed the cop. "Sure, Rehmon!" She said. "Tell the cop all our problems! Tell him I'm pregnant at age 16! Go ahead, don't stop NOW! Tell him!" Rehmon blinked with surprise. "Bra, are you okay? What's--" Now she pushed Rehmon. "I'm tired of you annoying me and telling everyon my buisness! Why don't you tell him the baby's name so he can stalk him when he's born!"
Vegeta started forward. He didn't like Rehmon, but he knew how it felt to be yelled at by a pregnant woman. "Bra, calm down!" Vegeta said. "It's no big deal! Your having a mood swing because your pregnant! Now quit it!" Rehmon was touched that Vegeta was defending him. "Thanks, man!" He said. "Don't expect it to happen again!" Vegeta whispered sharply. Rehmon growled. "Bra, go sit down and take a breather. You'll be better." Said Bulma. Bra sat down and was breathing hard. Vegeta walked over to Bulma and Marron went to talk to Rehmon. "What happened?" She asked. Rehmon felt his stomach turn over. He didn't know why this was happening every time she talked to him.
"I-I'm not sure." He said. He felt his face grow hot. Why was this happening? "I was j-just talking to h-h-her, and th-the next thing I k-k- knew, she was yelling at m-huh-me." He ran a hand through his hair in a nervous guesture. His stomach was formed into a tight knot. "It's because she's pregnant." Marron said. Then she turned her heel and went to ask for Bra's side of the story. Rehmon saw her hair tied up in the pink ribbon, and his stomach did another flip. Bra was walking up to him, and the next thing he knew she was kissing him, long and deeply. When she drew back and they were both breathing kind of labored, she said, "I'm sorry. I don't know what came over me!" Rehmon hugged her. "It's okay. It's this pregnancy thing. Don't worry. You'll get through it!" Bra smiled and she and Marron began chattering.
In the Baby Gap, they bought loads of clothes for the baby. They were all name brand and expensive, because Bra woulden't TOUCH anything lower than 30 bucks. "How about these socks?" She asked, picking up a 6 pack of socks that costed 35.75 because they said 'GAP' on them. "Aren't those a little high for socks?" Rehmon asked. "Stop talking like a poor person! Your a lawyer now, Rehmon!" He was sad. "they ARE high for socks." He said as Bra put them in the basket. "How about these diapers?" Vegeta asked. "They have a picture of cookie monster on them." Bra slapped them out of his hand. "We don't need to worry about diapers yet! I'm only 4 months pregnant!" "Why do we need to worry about clothes, then?" Vegeta asked. Bra stared at Vegeta. "Shut up." She said with disgust. Vegeta's blood started to boil. "Do NOT tell me to shut up! I am your father! I--" He ranted on and on throughout that intire store.
They had just came out of Limited Too. "I'm hungry!" Vegeta whined. "I want some food!" Everyone was getting tired of listening to Vegeta whine. "Hush." Bulma said to him. He started to walk toward the food court, but Bulma jerked on his hand, which she was holding. "Not yet. I don't think Bra is ready to eat yet." Vegeta slumped over. "Darn it." Bulma was kind of hungry herself. "Hey, guys, I think me and Vegeta are gonna go eat." Vegeta licked his lips. "I guess we will, too." Said Bra. So they all went to eat.
About 12 o' clock that night, they got home. "I'm tired!" Said Vegeta. "She drug us through that entire stupid mall!" Bra and Rehmon were staggering up the stairs. "Where are you going?" Vegeta asked. "I'm sleeping in Bra's room tonight." Rehmon said. "That's where I'm going." He contiued. "Um, G'night Bra!" Vegeta called. She waved in return, and Vegeta went into silent sobs. "Why me?" He asked himself. Then, he heard Bulma scream. "What? What is it?" He asked, getting up and running into the kitchen with alarm. Bulma pointed into the kitchen. There was a huge bite out of the table, scratch marks in the wallpaper, the refrigerator had been torn open and everything in it consumed, and the pantries were bare. "What happened here?" Vegeta asked, bending and helping Bulma up. "I-I don't know!" Bulma said. "I just walked in, and it was--AGH!" She pointed at the red dragon, Kasai. He was laying on his back, and his belly was big, fat and full. There was a scrap of banana peel hanging out of his mouth. "I guess....he got hungry." Vegeta said. "HUNGRY?!" Bulma asked. "He ate everything in the whole kitchen!" She ran over and slapped the dragon. Then she ran out of the kitchen, threw herself on the couch and sobbed. "Now I have to go to the grocery store again! I just went today!" She beat the couch with both fists. Vegeta patted her on the back.
"It's okay. It's not tomarrow yet." Bulma sobbed harder. "I hate being a wife. I hate being a mother. I hate being a woman! I hate LIFE!" She whied and kicked, but Vegeta picked her up baby-style and carried her up the stairs to their room. "God. Your crying over little things, and your not the one whose preggie." Vegeta sighed. He lowered Bulma down on the bed, whose cheeks were shining with tears. "He ate everything!" She grabed Vegeta and hugged him around the neck. He smiled in her hair. He was really, really horny right now, but he figured that if he tried to make any moves on her right now, she would only cry. So he just decided to go to sleep.
"BLECH!" Bra said from the bathroom. Vegeta heard it. "Oh no." He said to Bulma. They had been laying awake for a while, talking. "Bra's throwing up again." Bulma listened to the noises from the bathroom down the hall. "Poor Bra. I hated morning sickness." Vegeta nodded. "I keep trying to tell her that with a Saiyan baby, her pains will be much worse." Bulma nodded. "And Beleive me, they get worse before they get better. I can still remember it!" Vegeta didn't want to talk about that. It was a feminine problem which he didn't much understand. "Aw well. Let's have sex." Vegeta said. Bulma shook her head wearily. "No. Not right now. I know we haven't in a month because you've been so depressed over Benny--"
The mention of Benny's name caused Vegeta's lip to tremble. "Benny.....oh.....Benny, my faithful friend who always bought sunshine..." He was deep in thought about Benny. "Vegeta, do you know where Benny's buried?" Bulma asked. Vegeta shook his head. "But I need to pay tribute to him. Pay my respects. Maybe I'll just go to the bench where he used to live and give him some flowers." "He LIVED under a bench?" Bulma asked. "Jesus." She mumbled. Vegeta was sitting on the bed, pulling on some pants. "I'm gonna go. You want to come?" Bulma came up and kissed Vegeta. "Yes, I'd love to come. You need someone there with u when you do such a horrible and sad thing." She started getting dressed, too. They tried to ignore the noises coming from the bathroom until Bra burst into the room.
"Sorry about that." Bra said. "Me and Rehmon had sex a few hours ago. I guess all the movement was too much." "BRA!" Bulma said. "Me and your father don't want to hear about stuff like that! Get out of here, right now!" Bra rolled her eyes and walked out as Vegeta fell stiffly on his back on the bed. Bulma climbed over him. "Vegeta, are you alright?" She asked, lightly slapping the unconsious man's face. His eyes fluttered open. "Sure I'm okay." He said. "What happened again?"
Bulma and Vegeta were standing at the bench. It was the next morning. "And um.....I wish you peace, Benny." Vegeta said. Bulma found it rather funny he was talking to a bench. Vegeta threw the flowers on the bench. "Jesus, I wish I knew where Benny was buried." He said. "Then I could pay my proper respects." Just as he was sighing and wishing he knew where he was buried, a cop walked up. "Something wrong, here, kids?" He asked. They shook their heads. "We wanna know where the old black Bum, Benny, is buried. You know, the one who used to live here?" Said Bulma. The cop waved toward the Movie Theater, which had closed a month ago due to them smelling Marajuina constantly. "This old deserted bench? Think I remember the guy.....He's buried in St. Green cemetery, right down the street. His headstone is really small, and all it says is, 'To the old black bum: May the lord bless you and keep you, whoever ur lord may be'. Vegeta nodded. "Thank you!" He said. The cop rushed off into his car and drove off.
"Put your flowers down, Bulma, and then we'll go to his grave." Vegeta said. Bulma rolled her eyes. "This is stupid," She said, "Your going crazy because Bra's pregnant, and now you want me to put flowers on--" She stopped. Vegeta's hand was on her butt! "Hey, what are you doing?" Bulma asked. "Stop copping feels and let me put these flowers down." Vegeta had watched her bend over, and her skirt was so short that Vegeta could see the line of her panties, and it made him horny. Bulma put the flowers down and stood up. "There." She said. "Now can we--" Vegeta was looking at Bulma really funny. "What's wrong with you, Vegeta?" Bulma asked. "Are you okay?" She was getting ready to back up and go away, when Vegeta swept over there and picked her up baby style. "I know how to walk, you know!" Bulma said. "What are you doing?" Vegeta started kissing her on the face and neck. "What the--?!" Bulma said. She thought Vegeta had really gone inside. "Vegeta, we're standing right next to a dead man's house!" He didn't really wanna think about that right now. He hadn't had sex in over a month and he was horny. "Vegeta, what if somebody sees us?" Bulma asked. "What then? We'll be arrested for indecent exposure! That's 6 months! AGH! Don't touch me there in public!" Vegeta wasn't listening. "VEGETA! This guy is dead! You understand? We can't have sex on his bench!" But he was kissing her everywhere and makiing her sop and wet. "Nobody will see us." Vegeta said. "And if they do, we'll bribe em'. Now come on." Bulma thought about that. She WAS horny."Oh, alright, but if--AGH!" Vegeta layed her down on the bench and started making out with her and groping her all over the place. "RAPE!" Bulma said, but she was joking. Then they did the nasty on top of a dead man's house, a bench.
Bulma woke up later. She was laying on top of Vegeta, half naked, in public. ON TOP OF BENNY'S BENCH! "Vegeta!" Bulma said. "Wake up!" She was guilty that she'd had sex on top of a dead man's house. Vegeta's eyes popped open. "Hi, honey." He said. "What's up!" Bulma slapped Vegeta's chest and began putting her clothes back on. (THIS ISN'T NUDITY, SO HA HA IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE RATED R! I SAID SHE WAS 'HALF NAKED!') "What's up? We just had sex on top of a dead man's house, that's what's up! He's gonna haunt us!" Vegeta's eyes widened and he sat up, and zipped his fly. "Really?" He asked. "Haunt us? Is that even real? Seriously, Bulma, I--" Bulma threw her shoe at him. "Vegeta, when you do things like that on top of someone's death bed....THINGS will start happening! Bad things! We should have never done that!" "But you liked it." Vegeta said. "I know you did." Bulma rolled her eyes. "Yes, I did....but that's not what matters!" Vegeta pulled his jeans on.
"I can't find my shirt." He said. "And we still have to go to Benny's grave." Bulma groaned. "VEGGIE! We cannot go to Benny's grave after having sex on his deathbed! He'll haunt us there!" Vegeta was getting mighty scared about ths haunting thing. "M-Maybe if we go to his grave, and be super nice, he'll forgive us!" Bulma nodded. "Yeah! We'll go and you can say your sorry for squirting on the bench..." "hey! It takes 2 people to do the deed!" Said Vegeta. "It's not only my fault! and I still can't find my shirt!" "Come without one on, then!" Said Bulma. She grabbed his hand. "But I'm SCARED!" Vegeta said. "I don't want to go!" But Bulma had already drug him into the car.
They were walking through the cemetery, looking for Benny's grave. "Man, this place is creepy!" Said Vegeta. "How can dead people live here?" Bulma rolled her eyes. "Just concentrate on finding Benny, and you'll be all set." Vegeta looked around. "Look! All the leaves are moving! Look! That one just fell and no one touched it! AH!" "It's called the wind, Vegeta." Bulma said. "And it's autumn time. The leaves fall in Autumn." Vegeta nodded. "Oh." He said. "Well let's just get this over with so we can go home. I hate this stupid place." He kicked a leaf and a snake slithered out. "AH! It's Benny!" He said, jumping up and grabbing the limb of a tree. He just hung there. "Come down now, Veggie." Bulma said. "We needa get home." She tugged on his boot.
He dropped. "OW!" Vegeta said. "That hurt!" Then he quickly scampered to his feet. "Bulma, please let's hurry." She ran over and grabbed his hand. "Alright." She said in a stammer as they approached Benny's grave. The earth was tender and looked reshly tilled. "You can tell it's a fresh grave." Bulma said. She picked a flower and bent over to place it on the grave. Suddenly, the cemetery gate slammed shut with a *BANG*! It was a perfectly harmless sound, that had nothing to do with ghosts, but Vegeta went nuts. "AH! It's the ghost of Benny!" He jumped in front of Bulma, protectivly. Bulma was screaming. "AH! We're sorry, Benny!" And they both threw their flowers down and ran like hell.
"Your parents will be so happy!" Rehmon said. "Yes, I know!" Bra joined in. "Wait till they get home and find out! I can hardly wait to see the look on their faces!" Rehmon smoothed back his hair. "I'll bet they are. With a lawyer living with them, twice the income will be coming in." Bra hugged her boyfriend. "And Kasai is happy, too because his Rehmon can live here!" She picked up the dragon, picked a wood chip out of his long teeth, and hugged him. Smoke was furling out of it's nose. "He's getting so big." Bra said. "Look at his wings--he'll be able to fly in no time!" She gave Kasai one final hug and handed him to Rehmon. She crossed her hands over her jutting belly. It was poochy, but not fat and was hanging a little over her belt. "Now we need to find out where your dresser can go." She said to Rehmon. "And your excersise machine, too." They got back to work. "Yes, my mom and dad will be so happy that you are moving in."
"WE'RE HOOOME!" Vegeta said, busting into the front door with his shoulder and sending he and Bulma rolling across the floor until they came to a stop at the back of the couch. Bra slid down the banister, followed by Rehmon, and looked them over. "Jesus! Are you two okay?" She asked. "Your breathing like you ran a mile!" Bulma was huffing and puffing, and so was Vegeta. "We probley......did...*He* *hoo* *He* *hoo*..." Bulma said. "Yeah.....from......St....Green......Cemetery." Vegeta said. Bra's eyes got HUGE. "St. Green Cemetery is THREE miles away! You ran THREE MILES? why?" Bulma and Vegeta caught their breath and told her. "Oh." Bra said. "So you guys got freaky on a bum's bench and now your afraid a ghost is after u? Well I've got news, too!" Bulma and Vegeta looked up. "Yes....what...is....it?"
"Rehmon's moving in!" Bulma and Vegeta spoke at the same time. Here's what Bulma said: 'well that's wonderful, honey!' and here's what Vegeta said:'that's f*cking awful!'. So it came out interesting sounding. "WHY?" Vegeta roared. "Why me? 1st I have to live with a brat who writes fake resumes, then a girl who gos and gets herself pregnant at 16, now a MAN WHO RIDES A HARLY? It's too much!" Vegeta ripped out a patch of hair and stormed out of the room.
