Vegeta walked around campus aimlessly, he really didn't know where he was going, he just walked. Completely sober now, he wondered what he did to deserve this, to have the one person he liked to spend time with see him being the ass hole he truly was. He sigh. Where is she? I knew I saw her run this way.
Suddenly, his acute hearing picked up a rustle of leaves to his right. Pushing branches out of his way he ventured farther toward the sound of the movement. His breath caught in his throat when he saw her.
Her face was turned upwards, toward the crescent moon, it's beams raining down on her. Her indigo hair was disheveled and spread freely around her shoulders and down her back and she sat with her legs tucked beneath her chin. Gorgeous, truly gorgeous.
Slowly he advanced upon her, afraid that she was like a rare animal and at the slightest quick movement she would disappear into the clear night sky. As soon as he stood about a foot step away her head snapped towards him, blue eyes locking with black.
She knew he was there, he could tell by the way her face showed no sign of surprise. Sneaky little bitch probably knew he was there all along. A grin slowly spread across his face, she was almost Sayian like in the way she acted. However, his high sprits were shot down when she swiftly turned her back on him and he was reminded of why they were there in the first place.
Cautiously, he sat down next to her grimacing as he felt the soggy dirt and leaves beneath him. They sat like that silently, both afraid to say anything to each other as crickets chirped in the distance.
Finally, Bulma came to the decision that she would have break the ice. Curious eyes turned toward Vegeta's dark figure beside her and she asked the most simply yet the most complex word to ever be spoken.
"Why?"
Vegeta just stared at her, not knowing how to word his thoughts, how all these feelings running amuck inside of him could be formulated into sentences.
"You…you wouldn't understand…"
Not an expression on her face changed "Try me."
"Nothing I say will leave this spot, right?"
"Promise."
He looked at her intently. "Not good enough. You swear?"
"I swear."
Finally, for the first time in his life the proud prince spilled his secrets into the cold night air, not once looking at his companion as he talked.
" I… I use to be happy. Like every other person at this damn place. I had power, money, a future, respect, and a great family. A great one. I can still remember climbing into my mothers lap when I was little and she would tell me mystical stories until fell asleep. Then my father would carry me back to my room and secretly tuck me into bed. Then it all crashed, raining pieces of my fantasy life all around me."
He laughed into the tree branches, almost hysterically. "Isn't it funny how the root of everyone's problems lays within their family?" Vegeta didn't wait for an answer.
"Anyway, I was about thirteen when I saw it. I got back from a school lesson early and was so excited to go home. Something was wrong as soon as a stepped into the marble palace. I could feel it in the air, soaking into my bones. So…so…" At that Vegeta stopped dazing off in his own memories. Bulma patiently waited.
He shock himself mentally then went back to the story. " No one was there and me, pretending to be big and brave went in search of anyone. I heard voices in the back room, the "conference room" as my father liked to call it. I wasn't allowed in it, ever. I always wondered why. Getting a little scared being so alone I opened the door. I didn't think it would be of any harm if I just peeked inside. That's where I saw it. There he was, the man who I admired and loved so much tangled in the sheets of a large bed pumping himself in between the legs of Lelonda."
Bulma looked at him weirdly. So? Lelonda is the Queen and his mother. She voiced her opinion out loud.
Bulma was startled when his fist hit the ground, shaking the trees around them. "That bitch is not my mother. She never was and never will be. She's my fucking aunt! I trusted her, her and my father, and look what they did to me and my mother. He never saw me leave that room, never knew that I saw them together. For once in my life I under stood why my mother cried at night. Wouldn't you? Her own little sister stole her mate from right under her nose. My mother offered her a house, food, and that was how she repaid her."
His voice suddenly got softer, "A month later I noticed Lelonda was getting bigger and she began to hang on my father more and more. Sadly, my mother noticed too. She couldn't take it, she really did love my father. One day the palace guards woke up to find her face down in the garden fountain, blood everywhere, I couldn't bare the sight. She was dead, cut her own wrist with a kitchen night. Father and Lelonda didn't even seem to care. In fact, they performed the mating ceremony the next day, right after my mother was lowered into the cold, dank, ground."
Vegeta wasn't finished." I got worst after that. They just pretended like my mother never existed. I wasn't even allowed to utter my her name, no one was. Lelonda went as far as to claim me as her son in public and soon everyone came to believe that, I think that maybe even she did. She wanted me to call her mother and I refused but was swiftly beaten from my father after that and every time I didn't call her mom. She had her baby in July, only six months after my mother died. Stupid fucker, I hate him, they both adore him so much, he's such a little brat. Always running around screaming and taking fits and breaking thing. Little fucker hasn't even been trained yet. If he was never conceived I bet my mother would have never killed herself. She would still be here with me and I would have taken her far away from Vegeta-sei and treated her like she should have been treated, like a queen."
He looked at her for the first time in his little speech. " I eventually grew to tolerate it. I even think that their so fucking crazy that they actually believe that I am their actual son. But I know that deep in their mind they both wish I would just disappear, like they pretend my mom did. That way they could be the happy little family they want to be and Leonard would take the thrown. Their crazy. Don't you understand now? Don't you get it? I need to get rid of these memories, to dull the pain. Drugs are my escape, my freedom."
Bulma gazed into his eyes and could see the weariness in them.
"I don't want to end up like my mother…I don't want to give into them. I have to live, I have to fight. For her."
Bulma didn't know what to say. What can you say after your mighty prince has just told you his weaknesses, poured his soul to you? Why did he anyway? Why did he tell me this?
Vegeta sighed, understanding her predicament, you can't change the past and pity won't help anyone. Why did I tell her that anyway? Hell, if I know. So he stood up and dusted his pants and started to walk to his dorm.
All of a sudden, something supple tackled him from behind and he swiftly rolled over on the dirt, trying to figure out what was going on. His own eyes meet with two beautiful cerulean eyes just before lush lips swooped down to meet his own. Grabbing her hips and grinding them with his he deepened the kiss, faintly noting that her lips tasted just like strawberries.
________________________________________________________________________
Hah, hah! Can anyone figure out what chapter the strawberry came from and the quote it came from? Try, I dare you! I am so cunning! Sadly, no one ever notices…
If you are confused please read!
Okay, so what does everyone think? I really liked this chapter myself but I understand if you have another opinion. To explain a few things if you actually read this and are confused, Vegeta ( the big one) and Lelonda acted so nice and concerned in the beginning because Lelonda is mentally insane and actually believes that Vegeta (the little one) is her son. It runs in the family, first his mother committing suicide and then Lelonda going insane. Big Vegeta just goes along with it because Lelonda is his mate. The kingdom doesn't know about any of this and those who do try to cover it all up as much as possible. So, Vegeta hates his little brother so much because he believes that if he was never conceived then his mother would still be alive. Get it? If you don't just ask what you need explained in a review and I will answer!
You should all check out my other story, The Secret Society of Trunks Briefs. I wrote it on a whim and I am not sure if I should continue it, tell me what you think!
While you are there check out my profile and the pic I posted. Not the best but I was kinda hurrying it! Lol!
If you want a notice when I update just ask in an review (leave e-mail)
Please Review and if you like my story enough add it to your favorites!
Until the next chapter!
