Ghost Of You And Me

~*~*~*~*~*~
What am I supposed to do
With all these blues
Haunting me everywhere
No matter what I do
~*~*~*~*~*~
Vegeta slammed his fist into one of the training bots and dodged a ki blast he had fired and had reflected back at him. No matter how hard he trained, he could not seem to get the stupid woman off his mind. Everything he did, reminded him constantly about her. When he trained, the GR and the robots reminded him of her. When he ate, she was there, chattering about something or another, and if she wasn't, her ditzy mother reminded him of her. Sparring with Kakkarot was no help, because the baka third-class was the woman's best friend, and when he tried to meditate, thoughts of her just seemed to intensify. Her soft teal colored hair, and wide, innocent blue eyes.

Watching the candle flicker out
In the evening glow
I can't let go
When will the night be over
~*~*~*~*~*~
The golden light shone softly from the full moon, bathing the Saiyan prince with its light. Even now, he could feel the tug a full moon always had on a Saiyan, instinct that drove him to become the great transformed beast, Oozaru. Even though his tail had been cut off, he could feel the pull. He then went to the bed and tried to sleep, but again, pictures of the blue-haired scientist ran thru his mind. He remembered that night when she tried to kill herself, when she had come back home crying bitter tears that nearly tore his heart apart. He could not understand the weakling human Yamcha. How could he treat such a perfect and delicate creature as he did? How could he stand to make her cry? Vegeta's dark eyes opened and he lay staring out at the moon.
~*~*~*~*~*~
I didn't mean to fall in love with you
And baby there's a name
For what you put me through
It isn't love, it's robbery
I'm sleeping with the ghost of you and me
~*~*~*~*~*~
When Vegeta's eyes opened once more, it was just as the sun was slipping over the horizon, as the gray of dawn was turning into liquid pools of crimson and orange. He had finally fallen asleep, haunted with dreams of the woman. No matter what he did, she was an ever present being on his mind.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Seen a lot of broken hearts
Go sailing by
Phantom ships lost at sea
And one of them is mine
~*~*~*~*~*~
Once more as the dark prince tried to train in the Gravity Chamber, he thought of Bulma. He wondered how he could allow such weakness into his being. No! He would not allow this. He was the prince of all Saiyans! No woman…
With a cry of despair, Vegeta fell to the floor and wept. This beautiful creature could never know what she did to him. She could never care for a cold hearted murder. She could never be his. A feeling he had never experienced swept over him, and for a long time, he remained motionless, despairing. Wishing he had never been brought back to life…wishing he had never met this woman. Yet knowing he would never change it if he could.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Raising my glass
I sing a toast to the midnight sky
I wonder why
The stars don't seem to guide me
~*~*~*~*~*~
Vegeta stood on top of the domed roof of Capsule Corporation, and stared at the millions of stars that permeated the dark heavens. Focusing on the spot where Vegeta-sei would be, he raised his ki in silent homage to his departed people. Soon, one day, he must ascend to the Super Saiyan level, to truly bring pride back to the Saiyan race, as their prince. Therefore, he must banish all thoughts of this woman. This stumbling block. This weakness.
~*~*~*~*~*~
I didn't mean to fall in love with you
And baby there's a name
For what you put me through
It isn't love, it's robbery
I'm sleeping with the ghost of you and me
~*~*~*~*~*~
As he sat down at the table, the blonde one, the woman's mother, chattered incessantly as she set the food she had prepared for him in front of him onto the table. He looked up from his meal briefly as he felt the woman enter the room, then continued eating, determined to ignore her. She tried to talk to him, but fell silent when she realized that he was not going to respond. His chest tightened in pain when he caught the hurt look in her shining crystalline blue eyes, but he steeled himself, forcing himself to ignore it. He must not lose his focus.
~*~*~*~*~*~
The ghost of you and me
When will it set me free
I hear the voices call
Following footsteps down the hall
Trying to save what's left
Of my heart and soul
~*~*~*~*~*~
The Saiyan prince screamed in fury as his ki rapidly rose, sending a shock wave that swept the oncoming robots into the wall. The building shuddered, then began to collapse under the sheer force of his power. With a final cry, Vegeta fell to the ground exhausted. He eventually forced himself out of the pile of rubble, tight-lipped to keep from crying out from the pain. After taking several staggering steps, he collapsed. Feeling a cool hand on his face, he opened his eyes to meet the eyes of the woman. Whispering her name with a weak smile, he slipped into eternal darkness.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Watching the candle flicker out
In the evening glow
I can't let go
When will the night be over
~*~*~*~*~*~
Vegeta's eyes opened to see the hazy room that held the regeneration tank. Turning his head slightly, he saw the woman sitting in a chair next to him, awkwardly asleep. With a smile that reached his eyes this time, the dark prince allowed sleep to take over. He didn't care if he couldn't have her. To be near her was enough. As long as nobody took that away, he would be fine.

I didn't mean to fall in love with you
And baby there's a name
For what you put me through
It isn't love, it's robbery
I'm sleeping with the ghost of you and me
