Chapter 7

Yamcha's efforts

Last time on Dragon Ball DX…

"I have to get to work," Bulma said.

"Wait. Look… I'm not sure how I feel about you. But, please… Don't ever get drunk again," Vegeta said.

Now to the current chapter…

Bulma was at work, when her cell phone rang. She checked to see who it was, then remembered the caller id wasn't working. She answered it.

"Hey, babe," the voice on the other end said.

"Yamcha? What do you want?" Bulma said, hurt in her voice.

"Look, I'm sorry. I won't try to lie, I was cheating on you, but… I was wrong, and I hope you'll give me a second chance. I wouldn't blame you if you don't, though," Yamcha said.

"uh-uh. No second chances. I gave you a second chance three years ago, when this happened the first time," Bulma said.

"Oh. O-ok," Yamcha said. "Bye."

"I'm shocked."

"Vegeta? What are you doing in my office?"

"couldn't concentrate on training. Can't get you out of my head. Don't know why."

"Augh. Use full sentences!"

"why?"

"You're ridiculous. Go train or something. Stay out of my office," Bulma said, sighing.

"I told you, I can't concentrate. Follow me," Vegeta grabbed her wrist and tugged her gently.

"But…" Bulma objected.

"Work can wait. Just c'mon," Vegeta said, leading her to the front door.

"Where are we going?" Bulma asked as Vegeta wrapped both arms around her waist and began flying.

"Someone needs to teach you how to fly. You're too heavy to carry constantly," Vegeta complained.

"Did you just call me fat?" Bulma asked, annoyed.

"No, I wasn't trying to. I meant you need to do things for yourself, instead of me flying you everywhere, because it hurts my arms and back. Even I can't handle carrying more than 15 pounds for a long period of time," Vegeta replied.

"Oh. Ok," Bulma said.

"We're here," Vegeta said.

"the beach?" Bulma asked, confused.

"No, silly, that cave over there. It may be useful to that project you're working on. I thought we could check it out together, since I have nothing better to do," Vegeta replied.
