The Mysteries of Love---------Chapter 2

I don't know what time exactly the asshole (Vegeta) came back, all I know is it was night and it was late.

I had waited earlier for him to come back for the longest, I couldn't get my mind off of him and I was praying like hell that he was okay.

So after awhile I kinda gave up waiting for him, sitting in the same spot on his bed for hours waiting for him to return. But he never came back while I was awake, I was already tired to begin with and as it got later I got more tired and I fell asleep on Vegeta's bed.

I remember waking up, it was still night, and I remember seeing Vegeta flying through the window coming back into his room.

At first my heart raced thinking: "Oh my God.....what the hell will he think about me being being on HIS bed asleep...."

He must of noticed me on the bed because he started walking towards it. (I'm sure he would of seen me sooner or later anyways rolls eyes)

My heart raced even faster, I closed my eyes and pretended to be asleep. He squatted down til' he was face-to-face with me (I could tell) then he took his gloved hand and pushed my blue hair out of my face and tucked it behind my ear.

Then I heard him say quietly.... " You are so beautiful, Bulma....I'm sorry for being such an asshole and flying off when you was trying to help me and chasing Yamcha away earlier, but you deserve better so much better...and I wish I could tell you that when your awake.but I can't bring myself to....you know that..."

I couldn't believe what he said!!!!! If it wasn't dark in the he could tell I wasn't asleep because I was blushing as red as a ripe tomatoe.

Then he pulled his covers up on me and kissed me on the cheek!!! ( I was more red than before...)

Then with that, he sat down at the desk beside his bed, layed his head down and went to sleep.

When he was good and asleep I got up and went over to him to look at his wound. It looked bad, dried blood covered it and it looked like he didn't even atempt to cease the blood flow while the wound was fresh.

I went to the bathroom and wet a washcloth and brought out the first aid kit.

While he slept I nursed his wound and put a clean bandage on it. I wonder what would go through his mind when he woke up and saw it.

Then, I walked back over to his bed, got in and pulled the covers tightly up around me. I smiled in the darkness in the direction of the sleeping Vegeta.

I finally drifted off to sleep after thinking what tomorrow would hold for Vegeta and

I.....maybe Vegeta wasn't such a bad man....maybe.
