Chapter 9
Bulma recovered in the next few days, Vegeta still would'nt leave her side, in fear that she'd fall ill, or weak, but mostly because he didn't want her to run.
He was just starting to relise that she meant alot more than he thought to him, of course he'd known love before, but that was definitely different, it was family, not to someone that was not of blood relation, he loved her.
He couldn't belevive that he could just admit it to himself like that, he'd never felt for a woman, let alone anyone what he felt for her. He looked over at her peaceful form lying next to him, she was more than just beautiful, she was innocent, they hadn't even touched eachother, sure they kissed, but they hadn't explored eachother's body's, he hadn't had a woman since he'd met her, and that was a rare thing indeed, but for some reason he hadn't felt the need to go to some woman whom wouldn't even remember him in the next few days and tupp with them.
He reached over and gently pulled her to him, she turned sleepily and nuzzled her face into his shoulder, gripping his shirt she pulled him sloser to her, and silently begged him to hold her, as he put his arms around her to her back to draw her in he felt lines across her back, fingering the lines through the fabric it suddenly hit him, she had been beaten severly, suddenly angry at himself for forgetting what Bulma's stepmother had done moved his hands from her scars, he gently pulled himself from her grip, and after pulling the covers over her he walked out of the room to ChiChi's room.
Pounding on the door he waited for ChiChi to open it, ten he heard a womans gasp and a mans deep groan,
"Goku?" he asked.
"Ah yeah?" Goku asked as he opened the door and smiled sheepishly.
Vegeta shook his head as he looked at his friend and saw the embarrased look on his face.
"Your obviously busy" Vegeta replied cheekily making his friend blush more.
"What is it?" Goku asked as he tightened the sheet around his beet red body.
"I need to talk to ChiChi for a minute, she wouldn't be around would she" Vegeta murmered.
"Here" ChiChi announced widening the door, she to had a faint blush that spread over her cheeks, but thatnk god she was still dressed.
"Right well, I need to know who this lady is that whipped Bulma" he said in haste.
"Oh well you should know her, she's Lady Baba" ChiChi smiled devlishly, only to happy to help.
"I beleive that name does ring bells" Vegeta said as he thought more about it.
"So what are you going to do when you find her?" she asked silently.
"I dont have time to stand about chatting, Goku your coming!" Vegeta announced and ignored Goku's groan.
Twenty Minutes Later...
Lady Baba sat in her large chair by the fire holding her mug of herbal tea, smirking over the mugs rim she looked into the fire,
"Finally that girl's gone" she sighed.
Suddenly a rather loud knock echo'd through the house, Lady Baba looked up from her cup and was about to call for Bulma to answer it when she remembered she wasn't there anymore, "Well that girl was good for something" she admitted silently, then after giving a tired groan got up from her chair and strode to the door.
Apon opening it she saw to men, wait!, no!, not the prince and his friend, "My lord" she said sweetly as she curtsied, Vegeta looked down at her and scowled inside, "I would like to talk about one of your servants" he said sternly, taken back by his request Lady Baba took a step back and put a hand over her heart faking a pretend concern, "Has one of them done something My lord?" she inquired stepping back and allowing them in.
"Ah..yes, you could say that" he murmured as he walked into her furnished livingroom, "Pray tell" she said completely ignoring Goku who stood by the fire,
"She has marks on her back from a whip" he said softy, 'How could he know about that' she thought cringing, "You do know that the law doesn't allow that type of punishment anymore" he asked craning his neck down at her, "Ah..yes of course, I would never hurt one of my servants" she lied flirtasiously, "really?" he asked disbeleivingly, she swallowed the lump that was forming in her throat and nodded, "I'm sorry that I must say that I dont beleive you" he said dryly, she looked taken back by that, "You are here by arrsted for lying to the Prince of Earth" Goku said as he grabbed her arm and hoisted her out hte door without another word, Vegeta just sat there smirking at the surroundings of the house, 'Bulma's house' he thought to himself smirking as he left it.
One Day Later...
Bulma still hadn't found out that Lady Baba had been sent to jail, she sat in her room feeling more energy go through her bones, she now wore a beautiful white dress Vegeta had sent to her room, it was made of silk and lace and made her look absolutely beautiful, he'd ordered to wear it, she stared at the dress a little concerned that she'd look to flashy, surely other woman don't wear such special dresses, why it looked like a wedding dress, huffing she shook her head at all the thoughts forming in her mind , placing her hands on either side of the bed she pushed her self up trying to stand when Vegeta came in, she found that she was still to weak but was caught by Vegeta when she started falling backwards, "Haven't I told you not to try anything while I'm gone?" Vegeta asked grinning, Bulma blushed as he lifted her into his arms, "I see your dressed so we might as well go out" he announced carrying her through the door, "But..." Bulma started but stopped when she saw ChiChi kissing Goku in the hallway, "ChiChi!" she squeaked at her friends openess of feelings, ChiChi looked up after breaking Goku's kiss and smiled at Bulma, "So your ready" ChiChi nodded aprovingly at Bulma's dress, "Where are we going anyway?" she asked looking up at Vegeta, raising a brow he looked down at her, "It's a surprise my love" he said as he carried her to the carriage that stood out side and then gently placed her inside, "I can stand you know, I was just a bit tired" she admitted, "I know, but any reason to hold my woman" he said arrogantly smiling.
