A/N- HOLA! I know its been a while since the last chapter- but what's sad is the fact that im sitting here alone on Valentine's night writing this! Oh, and thanks for all the reviews! They really do make me smile! ! Hope you guys enjoy the chapter- nothing new really happens...im tryin to draw things out a little so I can figure out where I want to go with this story! Thanks for reading! Oh, one more thing- I kinda make Goku seem a little smarter than his character is in the cartoon- what can I say? I like guys who have brains! , wink wink flying pen! Thoughts are in :: now too...
Chi Chi slammed the phone down angrily. ::How could I have ever been so close to such a bitch??:: she thought, contempt for Bulma growing stronger by the second. Chi Chi could feel her heart rate rising, she could feel her cheeks grow hot with anger. Before she knew it she had picked up a bottle of orange juice sitting on her nightstand and forcefully thrown it against the wall, causing it to shatter. Luckily it had been empty.
Only a cool hand on her cheek brought Chi Chi down from her session of rage.
"Chi Chi," a calm, sexy voice said, "don't get so worked up about this." Goku had been sitting on the edge of Chi Chi's bed, he had heard the one sided phone call, and had seen Chi Chi's hate spring up. ::She can be a little scary....but she's so damn sexy when she is mad!:: Goku thought, a hot blush spreading over his cheeks, causing him to grin sheepishly.
"But did you see the look on Krillin's face when I came back from the bathroom and said Bulma wasn't in there? He knew she had ditched him! He looked crushed. How could Bulma do that? She doesn't care about anyone but herself!" Chi Chi vented, as if she needed to defend her sudden anger. ::I know I'm well justified...I shouldn't have to explain myself to Goku::
As if he was reading her thoughts, Goku replied to Chi Chi, "You don't have to defend yourself for me. I understand why you are mad, but don't worry about Krillin...he's a tough kid. And Bulma? She probably just felt uncomfortable in the situation and didn't know how to deal with it. We did exclude her somewhat, and maybe it just upset her."
Chi Chi absorbed Goku's words. She knew he was right, and she knew that Krillin would be fine. He seemed like a strong one, despite his tiny stature. But one thing Goku had said targeted Chi Chi's brain, which started working away. ::Did Bulma leave because I was leaving her out? Maybe by spending so much time with Goku I have been ostracizing Bulma, leaving her out, hurting her. Maybe this is all my fault!::
Goku could tell what Chi Chi was thinking. He knew she would blame herself for the whole situation if she thought too much about it. "Listen Chi, its not your fault. Don't even think that thought twice, because we both know it is very far from the truth." Goku said, reassuringly, moving up the bed and placing his arm around Chi Chi.
Chi Chi looked up at Goku, already feeling better about things "You always know just what to say to make me feel good, don't you?" She smiled up at him, brushing his chin lightly with her fingers, enjoying the feel of his smooth, warm skin. She lightly brought her fingers to his lips and traced them gently, feeling him kiss them softly. She slowly brought her lips to his and kissed him there for a long time, just savoring the thought of being in his arms. Goku smiled through his kiss, content as he could ever be. ::At least she isn't focusing on Bulma right now:: he thought happily.
As Chi Chi and Goku shared a loving embrace, Vegeta paced back and forth in the gravity room, sweating profusely as his mind reeled.
::That had to have been Kakkarott. I just know it. It looked just like the fool. And Kakkarott would go and do something as stupid as to date a human. I don't even think the fool has a brain. But if it was Kakkarott, why the hell was he on earth?!?::
Vegeta couldn't make any sense of his thoughts, and with an angry growl he flipped the light switch off and stormed out into the cool, clear evening. He stomped toward the Brief house, but as he was about to fling open the door, a shining light caught his eye. It was coming from Bulma's room.
Vegeta hadn't flown since he arrived on Earth, but he was longing to do it, and he was curious as to what Bulma did when she locked herself in her room, so he decided to float up to her window and take a peek. :: I want to find out what this human girl business is:: he thought, beginning to drift slowly up towards her second story window.
Hiding behind the wall, Vegeta poked his head around to see through the window, only to be disappointed at what his eyes revealed.
There was Bulma, sprawled out on her large bed, her face red and puffy- she had obviously been crying...a lot. :: Stupid girl and her emotions. One minute she is extremely upset and screaming, the next she is zonked out on her bed. She must be extremely tired or maybe she didn't care too much about what she did tonight because she isn't seeming to lose any sleep over it:: Vegeta seemed to look into the room with a sinister scowl on his face, but as he began to think, his expression began to soften.
::You know, at least I don't have to hear her bitching when she sleeps. She is easy to be around when she's not whining, she's even kinda pretty...:: With this thought, Vegeta literally kicked himself. ::I think this flying is getting to me:: With that, he floated to the ground and entered the Brief house from the bottom floor, and he proceeded to clean out the fridge before he jumped into bed.
The bright sun filtered into Bulma's room, dancing along her tear stained face, pulling her from her dreams. Oddly, she found herself tucked under the covers, her light turned off, and her radio turned down. Even more odd, she noted that her bathroom door and Vegeta's bathroom door were both open, so she could lean over and see that Vegeta was still in bed. ::That's strange...he never leaves that door open, and neither do I :: she thought, slinking out of bed.
Bulma had almost forgotten about the night before when all of a sudden, it all drifted back to her. But she was done with crying. She wasn't going to waste any more time and tears over the situation. But there was something she was going to do-she had a plan that would work things out. Bulma pulled on a pair of jeans and quickly combed her hair, all the while smiling at the prospect of a fresh start, and grinning at the thought of her newly hatched plan.
A/N- hey guys...well I hope you liked this chapter- kinda like an aftermath of the blind date. And what will Bulma do?? I don't even think I know yet, but I have some ideas! Review and tell me what you think, and by the way, thanks for all the encouragement!
