Chapter 5: Arrival

"Landing will be commencing in 10 minutes"Beeped a computerized

Vegeta was sitting in the control room with his guards "Go get those harpies and prepare them for landing" Vegeta said to Kakkerrot "and Nappa go prepare the crew and the rest of the ship."

Kakkerrot walked out of the control to the guest accommodation where Bulma and Chi Chi are staying. KNOCK KNOCK Kakkerrot knocked on the door. "Coming" Chi Chi, whispered from behind the door attempting not to wake Bulma. Chi Chi opened the door and closed it behind her. "Hi Kakero or was it Kakereto" Chi Chi said scratching her chin "He he he it is actually Kakkerrot but most of my friends call me Goku" Goku said doing his trademark grin. "Ok then Goku it is well anyways what's up" Chi Chi replied in a flirtatious tone Goku just blushed. "We are about to land and Vegeta said that you and Bulma must come to the control room and prepare to land," Goku said pointing in the direction of the control room. "Um ok but Bulma gets really upset when she is woken up" Chi Chi replied opening the door. "Ok then I will carry her" Goku whispered when he walked in. "Ok then" Chi Chi whispered back.

Goku gently picked Bulma up and took her to the control room with Chi Chi right behind him. They walked in with all eyes in the room on Goku and the slumbering Bulma. "Kakkerrot why the hell are you carrying that Chikyuu-jin" Vegeta shouted. Bulma stirred "Vegeta shhh she will be in a bad mood if we wake her up" Goku whispered. "I don't give a damn what kind of mood she is in" Vegeta shouted back. Bulma eyes shot open and she looked at her surroundings "Where the hell am I and who the hell woke me up" Bulma said in a angry tone with a hint of violence. "He did" the whole room said pointing at Vegeta "Some loyal subjects you are" Vegeta huffed. "You grrr you are so going to pay" Bulma shouted pointing a finger at Vegeta. Bulma jumped out of Goku's arms and walked up to Vegeta. "So what are you going to do to me you are just a weak chikyuu-jin" Vegeta said smirking. "I may not have strength but I am very observant and I know your one weakness" Bulma said smirking back. "Oh and what might that be little one" Vegeta said leaning closer to Bulma noses almost touching. "This" Bulma screamed a very high note. Vegeta fell to the floor holding his ears. Bulma stopped and smirked "Everyone has a weakness" Bulma shouted and stormed out of the room. "You get back here you pathetic human" Vegeta shouted following her out of the room.

"Looks like someone has a crush" Goku said smiling "About time to" Nappa said pushing buttons and turning dials. The whole room exchanged glances and whooped "Oh la la". "By the way should someone tell them we are going to hit turbulence?" Goku asked once again the whole room exchanged glances "nah".

"Woman get back here no one hurts the prince of Saiyans without being hurt back" Vegeta shouted grabbing Bulma by the arm causing her to spin around and face him. "Hmm I see that my observation was correct" Bulma smirked. "Grr you little" But before Vegeta could finish his sentence they ship entered the turbulence zone causing Bulma to fall on top of Vegeta. Vegeta caught Bulma and kneeled down so that the turbulence wouldn't harm her. He held her real close to protect her from the bumpy ride. When they were in the clear again Vegeta was still holding Bulma, not moving. Bulma didn't object. She looked up, once again their noses almost touching. "Vegeta...thank you." Bulma whispered looking him in the eyes. Vegeta just looked at her then smirked. "Don't get comfortable..."Vegeta left the sentence hanging in the air, there was no real malice in his tone. They were still holding each other. Bulma could feel Vegeta's hand running through her hair slowly. Bulma, feeling very brave, brought her lips up touching his. He immediately deepened the kiss.

"Vegeta, we have landed" shouted a very happy Goku advancing towards the next room.

Bulma and Vegeta instantly broke apart and got up. Bulma blushing profusely and Vegeta not meeting her gaze. Goku entered just then.

"Bulma are you ok, you are a little red" Goku questioned.

Bulma cleared her throat.

"Yeah Goku I am fine I...I have to go" With one last look she at Vegeta she left the room.

"Go where" Goku asked? Scratching his head.

"Kakkerrot you idiot" Vegeta said storming off in a different direction than Bulma's.

Goku just stood there very confused, after a couple of seconds though his thought drifted towards that of food and shrugging he went in search off Chi Chi.

Bulma, Goku, Chi Chi and Vegeta were standing by the exit waiting for the doors to open. Bulma standing slightly away than necessary from Vegeta.
