Chapter Eleven: Just A Dare
"Well?" Eighteen looked on at the two in question. She received no answer from the dumbfounded Vegeta, who stared at the floor, and embarrassed Bulma, who'd done that in front of her friends in the first place, with little hesitation. Krillin raised hi hand. "Can we just get on with the game, please? I never want to remember what just happened, it was too disgusting." He said, shivering as he recalled Bulma's fingers go up and down Vegeta's neck, and how Vegeta had expressed any emotion for someone at ll.
"Good idea," Chi-Chi agreed.
"No, I want to know what's going on! Bulma, do you like Seventeen, really?" Eighteen went on.
"No..." Bulma admitted, putting a hand behind her head. It seemed as though her secret was out, directly told or not. But why so early in the year?
Eighteen nodded. "I see...so, you lied? Why?"
"I don't want to say who I like..." Bulma said quietly.
"Then answer me this--is it someone in this room?" Eighteen asked.
"...Yes." Bulma nodded. Vegeta lifted his gaze from the floor. Maybe it was more than a dare? She liked someone in the room, and he had a one in three chance it was himself. Besides, she hadn't complained after the kiss, and really hadn't minded the da that much beforehand, either...but him? Why would she like him, of all the guys she could have?
"Oh..." Goku nodded. "Who?"
"I'm not telling, okay?!" Bulma yelled, slightly blushing as she screeched at the boy.
"Anyways..." Chi-Chi said loudly over the two, who yelled on about why Bulma wouldn't tell. "Let's finish the game before the bell. I think we have about fifteen minutes of game time left. Anyone care to continue, or should we just sit here?" She wonde d.
"Well...who's turn is it now?" Eighteen asked.
"Mine," Bulma said. "Because I just did a dare."
"Will you carry on the game?" Krillin asked, hopeful of more fun.
"Why not?" The blue-haired girl sighed, looking at Vegeta, who pretended to be staring at something else. "Uh...Goku, Truth or Dare?" She aked dreamily, still watching the flame-haired boy, who continued to ignore her eye-catching glances.
"Uh...Truth!" Goku accepted his fate, having to tell something about himself. His life was somewhat of an open book, though, so there was nothing really to tell that the group would care to know. Bulma rested her cheek in her hand, elbow propped up on r knee as she leaned forwards on the green cushions. "Oh, great...what do I want to know?" She questioned herself aloud.
"How about..." Chi-Chi leaned over Vegeta's laid back figure, and whispered in Bulma's ear. Bulma half-listened as she watched Vegeta reacting to Chi-Chi's actions, which stretched before his eyes. He looked at the floor, then to Bulma, who was watchin him. He blushed, and turned his gaze to the floor yet again. Chi-Chi sat in her seat again, and Bulma smiled. "Okay..." she nodded. "Goku, if you could pick one of us three girls here to live on an island for the rest of your life with, who would it be, nd why?" She asked the question Chi-Chi had suggested.
"Huh?" Goku tapped his chin. "What a weird question..."
"Just answer it!" Chi-Chi said impatiently, tapping her fingers on her knee.
"Well..." Goku scrunched his mouth inside out, while turning over his thoughts, and deciding. "I guess I would pick Chi-Chi, because she's really good at making food! But I would still visit the rest of your guys." He said.
Does he relate everything to food...? Chi-Chi thought to herself, sighing and copying Bulma's bored and longing expression. Goku laughed. "Speaking of food, is it lunch yet?" He asked.
"No, not for another two hours or so..." Krillin mumbled.
"Hey, why don't we forget sitting in this cramped old closet, and go to the mall? We'll come back to school after lunch, and go to our afternoon classes for homework, so our teachers don't kill us tomorrow. Sound good?" Bulma suggested. The five nodded "That sounds great! We can get something from the food court!" Goku smiled.
"I can see if there are any cute guys there," Eighteen said. Her eyes darted to the side for a moment, her body not moving as she glanced at Krillin. If only he knew how cute she thought he was...
"I'll be adding to my personal wardrobe," Bulma gave a thumb to her chest.
"Me too!" Chi-Chi threw her hand in the air.
"What about you, Vegeta?" Bulma asked.
"I'm not really into the mall. I mean, what would I do there?" Vegeta wondered, staring at his shoes.
"Shop, and have fun, of course!" Eighteen smirked.
"Hey, you wanna go to the arcade with me?" Krillin offered, looking in Vegeta's direction.
"Arcade? Why not?" Vegeta gave a small smile.
"Let's go, then! We only have two hours!" Bulma threw the door open, and peeked down the hall. She shut the door again. "There are two teachers coming, from opposite directions! We need out some other way!" She said.
"The window," Vegeta pointed at a small window at the other end of the room. He led the group to the glass portal to the outdoors, and pushed it open with the end of an old broom. "Come on, let's go." Vegeta put his hands together, and began to boost t other five out the window, meaning he'd be last. He intentionally left Bulma to the end, ignoring her when she stepped up, Vegeta took someone from the side. When the others had gotten out, leaving himself and Bulma in the room alone, he waved at the f r. "We'll catch up," he said. "We'll only be a minute."
"What?" Bulma asked. "Why aren't we leaving?"
"Um..." Vegeta put a hand behind his head. "Well..."
"Hey, about that dare. Er--y'know, it was just a dare." Bulma decided to cover up her feelings, until she was ready to say something about them later. He shouldn't have known as much that she would have taken the dare, it would lead to his suspicion. N , he probably already knew.
"Yeah. And I only kissed back because I didn't want you to feel stupid." Vegeta lied.
"Uh-huh..." Bulma nodded. "It was all an act. Just a show for the others." She agreed.
"Exactly." Vegeta turned to the window, and saw the group had wandered a few steps away, and weren't paying any attention to what Bulma and Vegeta might have been doing or saying. He clasped his hands together, and made himself ready to boost Bulma out f the window. Bulma climbed out of the window, and helped pull Vegeta out after her. "Let's go to the mall, already!" Eighteen waved at those who had lingered, being the two closer to the school.
"Coming!" Vegeta watched as Bulma ran up to Chi-Chi and Eighteen, and start a conversation of whispers.
"What an enigma..." Vegeta muttered to himself, staring after Bulma with confused eyes. What was she talking about?

Took me a bit to get that up compared to some other times between chapter updates, huh?

Anyhow...Kat, I didn't mean to make it seem like I was WORSHIPPING you...just wanted to make it clear of how much it meant that you cared, and talked to me...and to Tengu: I swear, you are the number one HUMAN boy on my list...but Vegeta is my ULTIMATE umber one. ;

P.S. Suggestions are welcome...poll: 1: Is the story getting boring, at all? 1: Which couple would you like to see me focus more on? 3: For Halloween, what do you think Vegeta should dress up as?
