Chapter Thirteen
It was early Saturday morning, the senior class had arrived home late the night before and only had the weekend to get ready for school. Prom was only one week away, and then Graduation was two weeks after that. The school year was going by fast, soon, yearbooks were going out and the last day of school was coming up fast.
Bulma smiled as she got dressed into a pair of pink shorts with a white tank top and pink fluffy slippers. Looking in the mirror, she grinned, she was a senior and three weeks until she becomes a real adult. She began to walk downstairs, her house was empty once again, both her parents were gone on another trip and wouldn't be back until the week before her graduation.
Sighing, she grabbed the mail and sat in the kitchen eating her cereal and looking through the mail. In the mist of the bills and fan mail, Bulma came across a letter from Yale. She smiled and opened it quickly.
Dear Bulma Briefs,
We are please to inform you that you have been excepted to Yale University. We look forward to you attending our university in the fall…
"YES!" Bulma screamed. Bulma smiled and ran to the phone, dialing both ChiChi and 18 on her phone. Bulma began to tap her foot softly waiting for them to pick up.
"Hello?" They said in unison.
"I GOT IN!" Bulma screamed on the other end. They held the phone from their ears as Bulma continued, "I got into Yale, they finally sent my expectant letter. I start in the fall."
"Good job," ChiChi said.
"That is awesome B, I got into Princeton with Krillen, but he also got into a San Francisco University, so he is going to see what happens," 18 stated.
"What about you Chi?"
"Umm, no letters here besides West Basin University, and that is only a state college, but they've got a great education for people who want to be teachers," ChiChi replied. "And plus, I am not as smart as you too, and I don't really want to take over a business or be a lawyer, so, I think I'll take the home college instead."
"That sounds like you…" 18 said.
"Well ladies, I have to go, Vegeta and I have a lunch date and I've gotta get ready," Bulma said. "But I'll see you two on Monday, okay?"
"Alright sweetie, and congratulations," ChiChi said.
"I know, I'm so proud of you," 18 giggled and they hung up.
Bulma glanced at her letter once again, she smiled. Her and Vegeta had applied for both Harvard and Yale last year, and now that they are seniors, they were finally being excepted. Bulma and Vegeta had planned on going out for lunch to discuss their future. They were in California, and their college of choice was in the East Coast.
Bulma walked upstairs to get ready. It was close to one and Bulma was finally ready to go. Bulma had noticed Vegeta was already in her bedroom waiting for her while she finished getting ready. Dressed in a blue jean skirt and a pink shirt with a V-neck and a white under shirt and pink flip-flops, Bulma walked into her room.
"Hey sexy," Bulma smiled at Vegeta, who was sitting on her bed, leaning back looking her up and down with a smirk on his lips.
"Hey," Vegeta pulled her onto his lap and kissed her.
Bulma giggled and pulled away, "Now Veggie, we need to go to lunch, we have a lot to discuss."
"Sure," Vegeta stood up and took Bulma's hand and they started off for his car.
"Hey Krill," Goku said through the phone. "So, How do you think I should do this?"
"Well, we still have three weeks till graduation, and Bulma is having a big party at her house afterwards. So maybe you can do it then?"
"I don't know though, I kind of want it to be special, and not when everyone is around, but when we are alone," Goku replied. "Maybe it will be a surprise, then during the party, I can announce it to everyone else."
"That sounds good, that would make it special for you and her," Krillen stated. "But what about college?"
"Well, Chi has made the decision to go to college in state and become a teacher, I am going to state and I'll be going with her too, the college near home is a good college to start your own business kind of thing."
"Really? What do you plan on doing?"
"Well, my grandpa said he owns a restaurant, and he is about to retire but he has no one to really take it over. The place is right down the road, I could take it over and make it into something bigger and better," Gokue stated.
"That would be great," Krillen said.
"What about you and 18?"
"Well, 18 got into Princeton, and then I got into Princeton, so we're going there. We were just talking about it too," Krillen stated. "She wants to go look at places a week after graduation."
"Wow, sounds like you two are already ready," Gokue said softly.
"Yea," Krillen replied. "School is almost over, soon we'll be out and about in the world."
"So? Did you get in?" Bulma looked at Vegeta. They were at Johnny Carinos, a big chain Italian restaurant known around the United States. Bulma took a sip of her spite before picking at her chicken pasta.
"I got into Harvard, and Yale…I am just not sure which to choose," Vegeta stated. He took a bite of his food before looking at Bulma once more, "What about you?"
"Well, I only got my letter for Yale, so I am assuming I will attend it and not Harvard, but what do you think you'll go to?" Bulma smiled at Vegeta.
"I don't know, I think I'll just go to Yale," Vegeta shrugged his shoulders. "I really prefer Yale to Harvard anyway."
"Okay, that sounds good," Bulma giggled. "So, after this summer, are we going to head over there to find a place to live?"
"That sounds fine," Vegeta smirked. Secretly he was very much excited and looking forward to having his own place with Bulma with no parents, just the two of them.
"Good, then it is settled, maybe we could go a good week or two once the summer starts," Bulma looked at Vegeta who was nodding while eating his food. "Good, I am glad we could agree, I just want to get things done before it is too late; I mean, with the new freshmen coming in, I want to get a good place to live."
The weekend had gone by fast for the gang, it was now Monday, school lunch and ChiChi was in the lunch line with Krillen and 18 while Vegeta, Goku, and Bulma stayed at the table.
"So? Goku, have you decided what your plan is?" Bulma giggled.
"About what?" Goku looked at Bulma puzzled.
Vegeta rolled his eyes as Bulma continued, "About you proposing to Chi? I mean, I am sure you have had a good enough time to decide, and graduation is just around the corner."
"Yeah, it is going to be a surprise though, but I will tell you this, at the after party at your house, she will already be engaged and I will announce it," Goku grinned.
"Awe, this is so exciting," Bulma clapped.
"What is so exciting?" It was ChiChi, followed by 18 and Krillen. Bulma whipped around and smiled at her confused friend.
"Oh, about prom this weekend, aren't you? I mean, we still have mountains of shopping to do," Bulma covered up. "I mean, we have to figure out the colors and what to wear and whatnot."
"Well," ChiChi sat down beside Goku, "I think the guys can handle where we eat pr whatever and make the reservations for the limo, while we go shopping." ChiChi smiled, "I think we should go Friday, I mean, I want get a good deal, no more then a thousand, but no less then five hundred. I don't want to look like it came from Goodwill or something."
"Oh I know," 18 chimed in. "I think that would be great, go Friday right after school, have kind of a girls night out, and the boys a boys night out, and then we could stay at B's house and then…"
"Prom the next night," Bulma smiled. "It will be prefect."
"Hmm, I agree," ChiChi said as she swallowed her coke. "Besides, I think it should be like a special thing, the guys shouldn't see our dresses anyway."
"But we still need to know the general color," Krillen said. "Unless you want to look tacky, and we all know how you three hate that."
"Oh, he is right," Bulma said. "Well, my Veggie already knows what color I am wearing."
"I do?" Vegeta looked up from his food with an more puzzled look then Goku's trade mark face. Bulma raised an eyebrow, "Right…yea, I do…" Vegeta rolled his eyes and continued to eat.
Krillen and Goku started to laugh, "Poor Vegeta…"
"Oh my gosh, can you guys believe it, school is almost over…I mean, it is scary," ChiChi stated. "18 and Krillen are going to Princeton, Bulma and Vegeta are going to Yale…Goku and I are staying here."
ChiChi began to tear up and Bulma looked at her concerned, "What is the matter hun?"
"I am scared that I will never see you guys again? I mean, we are all going our separate ways, what if you guys don't come back?" ChiChi stated.
"Well, I have to come back, I am taking over the Capsule Corporations in the next few years, and Vegeta is doing the same with his fathers' Corporations," Bulma replied.
"That is true," ChiChi said.
"And Krillen and I are coming back too, we're going to start our own firm, and it is going to be here," 18 smiled.
"Well…that is good…but I still cannot believe high school is almost over…"
