Chapter 2 June 14, 2004

"Wha.... what happen..ned?" Bulma said breathlessly.



"You were knocked out cold by some guys; I came and got you out of there, nothing more or nothing less. They just ran off when they saw me, hehe." This stranger, in Bulma's eyes, said with a small smirk on his face; is voice coming out a little more soothing this time with the same scratchiness. Bulma's face showed bafflement till it sunk in on when would have happened. Her eyes grew a little bit in size as she listened to what he just said.

"Oh, well thank youu.." She said. It seems that this morning she couldnt get any thing out of her mouth without stuttering but this time it was her stomach that inturrupted her. "Er, you want something to eat? I am starving and well I will be doing alot of work today and, er well, do you want something to eat?" She said trying to keep the rising red from her face.



"Very much, onna, I am very hungry." He grunted out. She was very beautiful to him. The way her hair cascaded down her shoulders as she leaned up in a sitting postion. The way she put her hair in a hair bow that made her hair cascade over her ears and cheeks, framing her face. Still, he didn't want her just found her attractive.

"You know any good place to eat? I am paying!" She said excitedly, saying nothing about him calling her an onna. After all he did save her life. She then got up to go to the bathroom. She was still in the cloths she was in the previous night except, mind you, her shoes. So, she walked barefooted to the bathroom that was next to the door, opening it and closing. He could hear the water start to run and the sound of the woman brushing her teeth.

"Ya, just up the road is Mama's we could eat there." He said leaning forward a bit so that she could hear him in the bathroom. She walked out giving him a smile. She grabbed one of her bags, opened it, and grabbed some blue jean cut off shorts and a white tank top that tied around the back of her neck and a pair of white cowboy boots. She walked back into the bathroom. A few minutes went by and she came out all ready. It took her a little longer than what he would, under normal circumstances, but this wasn't anything close to normal/

"Alrighty, Mama's is that what you said?" She said smiling. She got a nod from the stranger. "Well, lead the way stranger."

He walked infront of her and opened the door for her, closing it behind him. She looked back at him as he closed the door. Her eyes lingering a little to long because when he turned to face her he had caught her staring. "Lets go." He said with a bit of a scowl on his face. They both walked out of the motel then turned on their left and started walking down the sidewalk. Bulma in her mind playing a little game trying to skip over the cracks which soon made her look like a fool because she tripped a bit bumping into her comrade. Earning her self a scowl she keep walking avoiding eye contact. Thier were several stores that were next to each other, side by side. She smiled. As a child she always liked walking through town, it made her feel good. It was an everyone knows everyone type of town with alot of gossip and rumors. Lets just say her blue hair stuck out like a sore thumb that was swollen red and the size of a mountain. Their were looks and whispers that surrounded them.

They had thier posers, and their stuntmen, the whore, the drunk. They had it all, even the bad ass. They walked a little farther only about 7 stores next to the motel. They walked into the waffle house looking place. The place had stain glass windows and newspaper clips, the oldest one she saw, as of yet, was a 1950's one.

A smallish lady that had blonde hair and green eyes came up to the couple. "Hey there Vegeta! how are ya doin? You werent here last night, like normal. Where were ya? I, was a bit suprised myself, and I have known you for almost 10 years! It must have been important for you to miss a meal!" The bubbly lady said. Her wide circular eyes became even wider as she saw Bulma behind him. "B..b..Bulma, e e is that you? It cant be you.. but hell I aint ever met another girl with blue hair. Baby is that you Bulma?"

Vegeta watch the confused look on Bulma's face as she just became aware of who this woman was. "KATIE! How are you!!"

Bulma said as she went up to the small lady giving her a warm hug.



"Oh it is you,.sweetie its been a while! Where have you been?" Katie trailed off as she relised they were still standing in the middle of the front enterance and blocking other peoples way in. "Oh yes over here. Oh whoops are yall expecting any one eles?" She asked as she lead the two over by a table next to the bar stools that sat there for the loners to eat.

"No." Vegeta said in a final leave us alone and get the menus kind way.



"Thats Vegeta for you. Well Ima gonna go get yall some menus I will be back in a bit." Katie said then left towards the cash register.

"Ah, so the mistery man has a name?" Bulma said playfully. She then relised that this was one of the men Yamcha had metioned at the bar. She winced as she remembered and placed her head in her hands then looked up to Vegeta. She didn't stare at him for long before some one coming in caught her eye. Yamcha. He had saw the two and started to walk up towards them. He had a bit smile on his face and there were two other men with him. One of the men with him was big and bulky had brown hair and brown eyes, was nothing of her type. The other man that was with yamcha was resonably decent with long black hair that was layered with a white cowboy hat and a thinnish build. None of them, not even Yamcha, could compare to the man that sat in front of her. As they walked toward them Katie poped up and intercepted them pushing herself infront of them toward Bulma and Vegeta setting the menus in front of them.

"And what would the two love birds want to drink?" She said as she smiled at Bulma. Bulma knew she was trying to bait Vegeta into a bit of a verbal sparring seasion but he left it alone, and they ordered two sweet teas and then Katie left them. Yamcha made Bulma feel uneasy but he was nice so she gave him a bit of a forced smile but he didnt seem to notice that it was forced.

"Ah Bulma very nice to see you this early in the morning. Oh I see you have met Vegeta. He can be a bit of a dick but just try to over look his rude behavior. Me and the boys just came in here to grab a bite to eat. Boy mama can cook like the dickens; would you mind if we joined ya?" He said sporting a to nice smile.

"Accually he has been quite nice to me." Bulma said with a smile and then looked at Vegeta. It didn't suprise her that he had a smirk from hell on his face at that moment.

"I am normally nice to women Yamchop, but I like to make an eception for you." Vegeta said and looked over to Bulma who was trying to not laugh instead; Bulma nodded and scooted over as did Vegeta. Yamcha sat beside Bulma setting his arm on the top of the seat, to Bulma to get to Vegeta, and the thinnish man with the cowboy hat sat to Vegeta much too his displeasure. The look on his face was priceless. Vegeta looked thorouly discusted. The bulkier man sat in a chair he pulled up for himself. Katie came up and gave the shocked Bulma and Vegeta thier drinks and went ahead and got thier food order and the same with the three men that sat next to him. Their was small chat between all of them and by the time everyone got their food there was no chatting at all. At the end of the meal they sat and let their stomachs settle.



"Oh whoops I forgot," Yamcha said. "This here with the cowboy hat is Piccolo and this fucker over to my left who needs to lose a few pounds is Sean." They all shook hands as they got up to pay and leave.Yamcha earning himself a nice kick in the calf by sean hollard ouch but all was done and they left. They payed and walked out of the place and didn't know what to do next then Bulma spoke up. "Hey look, since we already ate, how bout we go on to ole aunties house? I will go with with the boys and you go on with Vegeta. How bout that?" Yamcha said trying to not over do it on the second day of them meeting. Vegeta was leaning up on a new looking red tuck, mabe a 2003 model, arms crossed neatly at the wrists and legs crossed at the ankle with a nice smile on his face. He was a bit relieved that she was coming with him instead of the player dushbag named Yamcha. He saw Bulma walking over to him and his smile turned into a smirk. He knew she liked what she saw, 9 years of hard farm work can do that to the body, after all he was only 23; his birthday was in June. 'This month.' He thought

"Alrighty," Bulma said grabbing hold of one of Vegeta's unwilling crossed arms. She pulled him along but then stopped not realizing something. "Do you have a car?" She asked Vegeta.

"Yes, you just pulled me away from it."He said giving her one of his, in Bulma's opinion, sexy smirk. She huffed then pushed him away in the direction of his red Ford truck, giving him a swift kick in the rear which inturned earned her another smirk."Now if i knew you wanted to play naste I wouldn't have pushed you and your futile attempt at drunken retard sex away last night" He said.

"Why you little!"Bulma said laughing a bit then giving him a bird as he got into his car. She walked over to her side and opened the door slaming it behind her. Giving a grunt as she strapped her self into the thick leather seat. Next to her she saw Vegeta take out one of his cds whiched looked like it was burned and putting in a.. Mar... She couldn't make out what the rest of it said before it was pushed inside of the cd thing in the truck(I have no idea what it is called) all of a sudden she could hear... A gutair start to play as thr truck shook and he put it in reverse and driving it off to her aunts house.

When you refuse me you confuse me

What makes you think I would let you in again

Think again friend

Go on and miss use me and abuse me

I'll come out stronger in the end

Does it make you sad

To find yourself alone

Does it make you mad

To find I have grown

Bet it hurts so bad

To see the strength I have shown

When you answer the door pick up the phone

You wont find me there cause Im not coming home.

Ah it was Marron5, not coming home. "I love this song!"Bulma yelled not getting Vegeta's attention because the music was pounding so loud making the large truck

When you answer the door.

Pick up the phone.

You wont find me there.

Cause I am not coming home.

The song ended and another started. It was Marron5's harder to breathe

Is there anyone out there

cause its getting harder and harder to breathe.

Is there anyone out there

cause it's getting harder to breathe

Bulma only sang out the chorus trying to stay with the words which was fruitless. They pulled up about 30 yards from the house. Vegeta put the truck in park, turned off the engine and opened the door right before the song ended cutting off the music. Bulma left her purse there. She flattened her shirt as good as it would get because it kept riding up over her navel showing it to the world. She didn't care really she knew she had a great body, thanks to the great lord. She started to walk over to the front of the house infront of the three steps that lead up to the front porch where Vegeta was; her boots scarped up the dust and bits of grass. The wood would have been decayed by now so she made a reminder to tell the guys to be careful when they are anywhere on the house. She looked toward the road that was infront of the house waiting for Yamcha and the other guys to show up so that they could get started. Not 10 seconds later she saw two trucks, one white one black. They pulled up next to Vegeta's truck and they got out. Bulma looked at them with a nice smile clapped her hands together, took a glance over her shoulder to the old graying mansion and back at the guys. "Yall ready to get started." She laughed as she turned around and started toward the mansion. Then she yelled over her shoulder. "Yall be careful while in the house and porch wouldnt want ya to fall through the floor and get eating by a ghost." She laughed over her shoulder and started up the stairs with Vegeta and Yamcha hot on her heels.
