Bulma stared at Jimmy as he repeated the name; she put a nervous smile and chuckled. Jimmy smiled back and turned around to the crowed and began to call out his name as he vanished through the same place 18 did. Oh no, she was screwed and she had to think of something and fast, but what. She quickly shook her head 'come on Bulma do something, anything'. Vegeta watched Bulma as she went from quiet and calm to skittish and confused "Woman, are you feeling ok" he asked her while mixing some drinks "Y...y...yeah I...I am f.... f.... fine" she stuttered looking down now at the black counter. Vegeta gave her a look and walked off to another barman.
"Will you all put your hands together for the house band" A voice from the club speaker announced. Everyone cheered and the techno trance music was cut off as two guys as well as Vegeta made their way to the stage. Bulma watched them calmly make their way to the stage "wow I didn't know Vegeta was in a band" she whispered to herself "and I wonder who the other guys are". One of the guys went up to Vegeta and gave him a small bow and pointed with his hand "Vegeta", he smirked and bowed back "Piccolo" then the man known as Piccolo took his seat behind the drum set. He had longish dark green hair and emerald green eyes; he wore a plain black summer shirt and dark green baggy cargo pants. Another guy walked up to the stage and hopped up "Hey guys, big crowd tonight don't you think" he said casually "Yeah I guess" Piccolo answered shifting around on the stool getting it perfect height. "Enough chit chat Tien, grab you guitar and let's get ready," Vegeta snapped, he already had his guitar over his shoulder and was tuning it. Tien shrugged then picked up his black base guitar.
"HOW YOU ALL DOING TONIGHT" Tien shouted into the microphone, the whole crowed roared with excitement. Vegeta stepped up to the microphone and began to play the beginning chords to the song.
(A/N Song: Disappear -Artist Hoobastank)
there's a pain that sleeps inside
it sleeps with just one eye
and awakens the moment that you leave
though i try to look away
the pain it still remains
only leaving when you're next to me
Bulma watched him play and from the corner of here eye she saw Jimmy coming back. 'dam it, I forgot all about that' she thougtht nervously. She was about to run away but Jimmy saw her and so did Yamcha.
do you know that everytime you're near everybody else seems far away?
so can you come and make them disappear?
make them disappear and we can stay........
He pulled his arm out of Jimmy's grip and shoved his way through the rest of the crowd. Bulma gulped and backed up to the counter 'I wish he would just understand'. Glancing left and right Bulma ran into the crowd and as she did she heard Yamcha call her name, she knew he was behind her.
so i stand and look around
distracted by the sounds
of everyone and everything i see
and i search through every face
without a single trace
of the person, the person that i need.....
Bulma finally got to the other side of the crowd and turned around to see if she had lost Yamcha. "man that was close" she muttered out loud panting, she walked to the wall and leaned against it and shut her eyes. Yamcha came out of the gap Bulma had and spotted her, eyes closed leaning against the nearby wall. A twinge of lost love twisted at his heart but his hate grew stronger. He wanted revenge and revenge he will get. He strolled up to Bulma but she had not heard him coming as the music boomed. Getting closer he grabbed her forearms and squeazed it,shoving her hard against the wall, her eyes shot open and she moaned out in pain. "Let go Yamcha, your hurting me" she pleaded ,tears theating to fall "You hurt me you bitch. You got my cousin locked up and now he is stuck in there for another 6 years and its your fucking lying selfs fault" he shouted through gritted teeth. No one saw and no one noticed…. Except one.
can you make them disappear? make them disappear........
Vegeta pulled the guitar off and walked to Tien "I have to go, take over". Tien nodded and started making a excuse for the lead singer as he hopped off the stage and ran over to the scene. Eventually Tien had begun another song and all eyes where on the jumping teen who was screaming into the microphone.
"You took him away from me, you knew how close I was to my cousin and you became jealous of it, you wanted attention from him because I wouldn't give enough to you" Yamcha said now bitter hot tears streaming down his face "I didn't, I wanted you, I didn't want more attention and I didn't want to be raped" Bulma whispered back "HE DIDN'T RAPE YOU, YOU WANTED IT YOU DIRTY WHORE" he shouted back he started to raise his hand and Bulma shut her eyes and droplets of water ran down her cheek, waiting for the impact.
Vegeta finally made it over and grabbed Yamcha's hand and twisted his arm behind his back. "You fuck, let go of me" Yamcha shouted "I don't think I can do that, you see you where about to hurt my friend over here" Vegeta said as he used his free hand and indicated Bulma. As Bulma opened her eyes she saw Vegeta holding Yamcha back and Yamcha's pure hatred relevant on his face. He wanted to hurt Bulma and he was ready to kill anybody.
She pushed herself off the wall and dashed out to the entrance and out the door straight out into the cool air. Yamcha struggled against Vegeta's grip but eventually a bouncer came and took Yamcha "Thanks Sharpener, if you see 18 tell her I have taken her friend home" Vegeta spoke quickly. The bouncer pulled handcuffs from his pocket and cuffed them on Yamcha "no can do Vegeta". Vegeta who was just about to run out after Bulma froze in mid-step and turned to face him "Why not" "well she disapeared with Krillan a while ago" "Shit, I don't have time for this. Got to go". He made a quick stop to the bar and grabbed his jacket and car keys.
Vegeta ran through the crowd and saw the spare boancer standing at the entrance in Krillans place.Pushing out of the doors, he spotted Bulma running across the road to the park. 'god she can run fast' he thought as he tried to catch up eventaully Bulma stopped at a bench and crumbled down onto it.
He silently walked up to her and placed his jacket on her shoulders before he came and sat down next to her. "Are you alright" he asked her quitely. She rubbed her eyes and pulled the jacket closer to her body then faced up towards the sky "I think I will live" she mumbled. Vegeta placed his elbows behind him on the bench and looked up to the sky "you can't see the stars in the city" Bulma muttered "the lights are to bright". "Let me take you home women" He asked her now looking at her. She shut her eyes and took in a deep breath and let the cool breeze graze across her face. "I can't go home, not like this" she replied eyes still closed "fine, then your coming to my arpartment". Bulmas eyes shot open and she turned to face him "how can I trust you I mean I don't even know you" Vegeta got up and began to walk away "Well fine you don't have to trust me then you can stay here all by yourself". He shoved his hands in his pocket and slowly began to walk to the club parkinglot.
Bulma silently sat on the bench and pondered to herself, I mean he did save her and he knows what it is like to be hurt so why would he do anything to her. She stood up and began to run after him "Wait for me" Vegeta stopped a while and smirked as she made her way to him " I mean I can't stay here by myself can I" "oh no, no you cant".
Slowly they made there way to the car and noticed two people making out in the phone booth. "They look familiar" Bulma stated as she stopped in front of the passenger side door. Vegeta turned around and quirked an eyebrow "I didn't know 18 had a thing for the walking cue-ball" he joked then unlocked the car "oh my god, thats 18 and the bouncer" she smiled and climbed in the car.
Sighing, Bulma shuffled in her seat, she felt uncomfortable being with someone she didn't know but some how she felt safe. She glanced over and watched how he concentrated, he looked like he was argueing with himself but what about "hey Vegeta" "hmm" "won't your boss mind" 'shit, I frogot all about the bafoon' "I will sort that out later, now we are almost there" he replied turning into the parking lot entrance of the building.
A guard walked out of his post and shone a torch into the car "Vegeta, aren't you earlier than usually". Vegeta glared at the guard "get that freaking thing out my face" the guard shifted the torch and shone it at Bulma "OH, now I see why you came early" "Just lift the boom" he hissed scaring the guard. The guard soluted and walked back opening the boom.
He parked in his parking lot and waited for Bulma to climb out the car "follow me" Bulma nodded. He walked to an elevtor and he punched in a floor and watched Bulma stare at the doors as they slid closed "What about your parents, won't they care they you are not at home tonight"he asked her, folding his arms, she lifted up her head and faced Vegeta. He only noticed now how beautiful her eyes were, they reminded him of a river , something he could drown in forever a death he wouldn't mind. "No, they are at a business party. Probably only be back late tonight they won't know I am gone I must just get home early in the morning" she replied. Slowly the elevator came to a halt and the doors slid open to show a line of doors and lots of windows along the side.
Bulma followed Vegeta as he stopped infront of an apartment marked 6B he casually pulled out a set of keys and unlocked the door not even paying attention as if it was second nature. He strolled in and threw his keys onto the nearby coffe table. "Yo Chi, you home" He shouted looking around the arpartment "coming Vegeta, just looking for something" her voice came from a room. Eventually a women came out, her hair was in a mess and her once perfectly neat business suit, was now crumbled and wrinkled. "What happened to you" Vegeta mocked "I had a bad day at work punk, talking about work you're home early" Chi Chi glared, putting her fists on her hips. Bulma trembled at the site of the scary women. "Something came up" he simply answerd. Chi chi glared then caught site of Bulma, her face softend as she looked at her "oh my,what happened" Chi chi demanded as she looked at Bulma "Something happened so she is staying here for tonight" He said looking at Bulma, he then walked off phone in hand.
Chi Chi looked at her then held out her hand "Hi, my name is Chi Chi I am Vegeta's older sister" Bulma lightly took her hand "nice to meet you, I am Bulma". Chi Chi smiled at her "come on sweety lets get you something to for you to sleep in" Bulma let Chi Chi lead her into a bedroom, it looked like a girls bedroom. It was a light cream color and had red furniture all over the room. The windows were covered in dark pink shades and the bed was decorated in orange red and pink. It was a really nice and neat room.
Chi Chi made her way to a red wooden drawer and heaved it open. She began to dig in it and eventually pulled out a dark blue nighty, it reached the ground but had a slit up to the thigh. "I hope this is ok" she asked Bulma, Bulma nodded again. She was to shy to speak, I mean what do you say.
"Now lets get you cleaned up, I am sure Vegeta won't mind you using his bathroom" Chi Chi led Bulma to Vegeta's room. He was sitting on the bed and it sounded like he was arguing "what do you mean fired, I had to leave" Chi Chi snatched the phone out of his hands and began to shout back quickly she pulled the phone away "Vegeta honey Bulma is going to shower in your bathroom ok, get her a towel please" then she carried on shouting and walked out of the room.
"I hope I didn't get you into trouble" Bulma asked Vegeta got up and walked to his cupboard and grabbed a towel from a shelf "No just some jackass new boss" he stated then he handed Bulma a towel she nodded and disapeared into the bathroom.
