A Pure Heart's Wish

Chapter 6

A week has past and Bulma was still dumbfounded on who had kissed her. She was busy helping putting the ball together, like helping getting the right food ordered, music, lights, etc. Her thoughts were soon interrupted when a couple of maids came up to her with the dress for the ball.

IT WAS GOREGOUS!!

It was a bell shaped dress in white, very low cut, sleeveless, a beautiful white flower design that seemed to sparkle in the light, a cute bow in the back with ribbon that fell to the bottom length of her dress.

"Oh my, I don't know what to say!" Bulma felt so light headed at the moment, "Oh miss it was pleasure making this for you, it was worth it." The maid smiled and so did Bulma, "We'll be taking the dress to your room miss, good day." The maid said and walked out of the hall.

"Ok let's see now where was I......." Bulma looked around, "Oh Bulma, I'm so glad I found you!" Eighteen called out as she ran up to her.

"What is it?" Bulma asked while moving some strands of hair out of her face, "It's the Queen, she wishes to speak with you at once!" Eighteen huffed, still out of breath from running.

"Oh my, well ok......" Bulma said while walking to the throne room she passed by people who just seemed to stare and her and whisper things that Bulma couldn't make out.

"Hmm I wonder what's going on?" She thought and when she entered the room, the King, Queen and her hot Prince were seated, in silence.

The door behind her shut loudly, causing her to jump a little.

Bulma walked in and bowed, "Your majesty what is it that you may need?" she asked while looking the Queen in the eyes.

"Bulma, I've noticed lately you've taken interest in my son...." She trailed off, noticing the shock in Bulma's eyes and a light flush forming on her cheeks.

The Prince stared at Bulma in shock, how could a beautiful woman even like someone like him? Deep down.......he knew he loved her but his mind told him it meant nothing but how could love mean nothing?

"Bulma its time to know why you are here, you very well know you are called the high servant but to serve is not your purpose, you have been chosen to marry my son and take the place as the future Queen of Vegeta." The Queen smiled.

All those words kept running through Bulma's mind over and over again, she felt like the room was spinning and felt her throat swell up, she couldn't breath....

Bulma took a gasp of air and sat up. She was in her bed, all was silent.......it had been a dream, oh but it felt so real! She looked to her left and saw her dress.........then it couldn't of been a dream....... Could it?

Bulma was so sweaty from the sheets that she got up and decided to walk to her bathroom and take a quick shower. After doing so she walked out of her room and down the dark halls, to get a drink of water in the kitchen.

Vegeta was her future husband? The man she loved more than life itself? But what's heartbreaking is he doesn't love her and is being forced into this marriage. That's what makes her want to break down and cry, she wants to be happy when she is to wed her love, but knowing he doesn't give a damn hurts so much.

Vegeta sat on the floor up against his bed thinking of his future bride, Bulma. He had so many mixed feelings, some say to sweep her off her feet, others say to blast her into oblivion. He grunted, "Maybe I should go take a walk to think things out." He thought and got up and headed down the hall.

After coming out of the kitchen, Bulma stopped at the window that over viewed the entire empire. The moons were so gorgeous tonight and it was a still evening, so everything was perfect...........except for her life. Yet again she thought of what it would be like if Vegeta did love her, thinking that she started whispering words that turned into a song without her knowing.

It's time to tell you of a secret I keep

How I get with you when the world's asleep

I can't wait for the long day to end

Then I can be back in your arms again

Bulma closed her eyes and thought of her love, how her dreams were coming true, even though the love of her life didn't love her, it didn't seem to matter to her at the moment, she just continued to sing without knowing the man in the shadows was watching her once again.........

When I close my eyes

You are by my side

And I can picture us together

Every night I pray there will be a way

And we can make it last forever

I dream I'm dancing with you

And I can really move

I dream you're kissing me

And I can really feel it

I dream I'm dancing with you

And I can really move

I dream you're kissing me

And I can really feel it

Swear I can really feel it

As Bulma sang on, she opened the window which lead to a glass balcony, almost hidden in a way. She couldn't resistant the starlit evening sky. The man followed and crept out of the door and hid around the dark corner of the balcony.

I don't mind living in a fantasy world

I know how it feels to be a girl

And hear you say the sweetest things soft and low

I never want to wake up and let you go, no

By now the man was thinking of who she could be singing about, her voice was full of love and passion, could it be towards him?

When I close my eyes

You are by my side

And I can picture us together

Every night I pray there will be a way

And we can make it last forever

I dream I'm dancing with you

And I can really move

I dream you're kissing me

And I can really feel it

I dream I'm dancing with you

Until we lose control

I dream you're loving me

With all your heart and soul

The man felt his heart pump faster and faster, did this woman know that he loved her? Impossible! The man wanted to kiss her flawlessly with every second that flew by so fast. His body ached for her and yet he continued to listen to her beautiful voice.

Someday soon I'm gonna make this dream come true

I can't deny that I'm so into you

I want you soon that I forget to breathe air

The feeling grows so strong... I believe

It's real......

Bulma faded out and stared out into the dark city that seemed to never end.......... She wanted Vegeta but he didn't love her and her heart ached for nothing more than his love, tears welded up in her eyes and she turned to leave when she saw someone in the door way.

She froze

"Who's there?" her voice trembled and she choked back her tears. The man took a step forward and once again took her in his arms. "Oh so your back, tell me, who are you?" Bulma asked smiling but the man only placed a kiss on her lips and seemed to vanish in thin air. Bulma felt her knees weaken, that man was mysterious and she desperately wanted to find out who he was and cope with her painful heart.

"WAKE UP SUNSHINE!" Eighteen squealed and twirled around the room. Bulma sat up half way, leaning on her elbows and looked at Eighteen through her messy blue hair, "What time is it?" she groaned, "Why its almost 10, we need to start getting for the-"

"The BALL! Oh my goodness, Eighteen you should have had me up sooner!" Bulma jumped out of the bed and dashed to the bathroom.

Eighteen turned and stared at the closed bathroom door, "Well you knew tonight was the ball, so you should of gotten your little butt up!" Eighteen laughed and wondered something, "What did the Queen want from you?"

There was a long pause before Bulma quietly opened the door and looked down at the floor, "I'm to wed the Prince."

Eighteen didn't know what to say but could see the tears in Bulma's blue eyes, "And he doesn't even love me......" she whispered and the two turned their heads in a jolt, there was a knock at the door.

Eighteen answered and couldn't believe her eyes.......it was.....
