"Guys!!! It's 9:30! We are going to be late!!!" Karine screamed.

"Hun, don't worry, we'll make it." Chi-chi said adding finishing touches on her mascara.

"Okay, lets go!" Bulma said. "We'll take my silver convertible." With that, they all grabbed their mini purses, which matched their outfits, and left to club Lasgos.


"They are late-again." Goku said taking a sip of his beer.

"What do you expect, I mean, if I had to put layers of crap on my face, lets just say it would take an eternity." Vegeta said cracking up after seeing Goku sip out beer on the bartender.

"Sorry!" Goku said to the waiter who was now wiping his face and clothes with a towel.

"Great going Goku." Deryck said joining Vegeta in his laughter.

"Ha ha." Goku said with a serious face.
"Finally, getting a parking spot nowadays is almost impossible." Bulma said locking her car.

"Damn, we are late. It's 10:43." Chi-chi said. Then all of a sudden, she came to a halt and started digging inside of her purse. "I know I put it here somewhere!"

"Put what, where?" Karine asked.

"Ah ha!" Chi-chi said pulling out a card. "Your i.d. I just had it made like an hour ago. It has a picture of you right now on it."

"Oh, okay, thanks...?" Karine said accepting the card. When they walked to the entrance, they moved to the front because they were well known by the owners. They all presented their i.d.'s, and entered.

"Okay, I think I see them." Chi-chi said pointing to the bar. Karine's heart started racing and beating faster and faster. She just felt paralyzed.

"Hey Karine, you okay?" Bulma asked shaking her arm.

"Oh, uh, yeah, I'm fine." Karine said.

After crossing everyone, they finally made it to the other side, where there stood Vegeta leaning against the bar, Goku at the table, and next to him, Deryck, who captured Karine's attention immediately.



After Karine introduced herself to Vegeta, she talked to Goku, and made her way over to Deryck.

"Hi, you must be Deryck." Karine said shyly.

"Yeah, you must be Karine." He replied.

There was mainly silence between them, until Chi-chi yelled out. "Hey Goku, come on, lets dance." Shortly after, Bulma dragged Vegeta to the dance floor, and they started dancing.

Karine and Deryck looked at each other, and then Deryck had enough courage to ask her to dance. She accepted, and they walked to the dance floor, near where the other couples were.

Bulma took her attention off of Vegeta and looked for Karine. To her amazement, she was pretty good at dancing. She was moving her hips to the beat, and looked as if she was used to it. Deryck was just dancing normally next to her with his eyes glued to her every movement.

They had been dancing for a long time, until there was a halt in the music. The Dj announced, "Okay, tonight, we are having a couples song, so might all the couples please come to the dance floor."

Bulma & Vegeta, and Chi-chi & Goku left to dance to the smooth rhythm of the slow song. This time, Karine made the first move. "Would you like to dance?" Karine asked and Deryck simply smiled and took her hand. He put his hand around her small waist, and the other held her soft and delicate hand. Karine had put the other hand around his neck. They danced and felt so comfortable in each other's arms, until something terrible happened.

"Karine, might I cut in?" Samantha asked. As she bumped Karine off and went into Deryck's arms. "Quite the little bitch, ain't she?" She inquired.

"No. You know what, I need a break. Please excuse me." Deryck said and left her side.

Meanwhile... Karine had walked off to the balcony, which was deserted at the moment. There was a railing, and she walked over and held on tight. She breathed in the cold air and let it out. Why did Samantha always have to ruin things? Why? Deryck seemed nice and all, but I guess he's having a nice time with her. Karine had all of these thoughts passing through her head.


"Hey guys, do you know where Karine went?" Deryck asked Chi-chi and Bulma who was sitting at the table taking a break.

"Yeah, but what were you doing with the evil one?" Bulma asked raising an eyebrow.

"She just came and cut in." Deryck said. "So where is she?"

"Balcony." Chi-chi said and Deryck took off.


Karine was leaning on the railings thinking about everything, when her thoughts were interrupted. "Karine?" Deryck asked.

"Oh, Deryck, Hi." She said blankly. "How was the dance with Samantha?"

"Terrible." Deryck replied. Karine turned around and looked at him in the eyes.

"You want to here something weird?" Deryck asked.

"Sure, go for it."

"Even though I've just met you, I feel like I know you."

"That's odd." Karine said laughing, trying not to sound mean.

"Yeah." Deryck said joining her.

"I was wondering, even though you don't really know me, if you'd be willing to go out with me on an actual date." Deryck asked.

"I'd like that." Karine said with a smile. Then, out of nowhere, she started laughing.

"What's so funny?" Deryck asked.

"Look behind you." Karine said pointing a finger to the windows. There was Bulma, Chi-chi, Vegeta, and Goku looking through the window. Deryck walked over and tapped on the glass. They all walked away being embarrassed of being caught.

"So, where were we?" Deryck said. Conveniently, there was a cushioned couch with a covering over it. They both sat down and talked for a very long time.


"So Bulma, I think we did a good job." Chi-chi said nudging her best friend.

"Yeah, I think so too. I'm glad to see Deryck glad, and Karine for that matter too." Bulma replied

"Hey, Since Deryck brought his own car, maybe he can take Karine home. Cuz, it's getting late, and I got to go. My dad has this new stupid curfew rule." Chi-Chi said.

"Yeah, you're right. I'll tell Karine." Bulma dialed a few number on her cell, and then Karine's cell was ringing.


"Hey Bulma" Karine said answering her cell.

"Hey, ummm, we gotta go, so do you mind if Deryck drives you home?" She asked.

"Ummm, I'm fine with it." Karine said.

"Okay, then we'll talk tomorrow. Bye." Bulma said.

"Bye." Karine replied and they hung up.

"Hey Deryck, would you mind dropping me off at home later on? The others are leaving." Karine asked.

"That's fine with me." Deryck said.

Then, a cold breeze passed by and Karine started to shiver. Deryck noticed this, and he took off his Jacket and covered her shoulders with it. "Thanks." Karine said with a smile.

"So, its getting pretty late. Do you want me to take you home now?" Deryck said.

"Well, it doesn't matter to me, its up to you." Karine said looking down.

"I don't need to go home anytime soon, so it doesn't matter." Deryck said.

"Okay, then I have an idea. We've sent a lot of time here at the club, do you want to come to my house and we could watch a movie or something?" Karine asked looking up to him.

"Sure." He said standing up and putting out a hand for her. She took his hand and got up. Conveniently, there was a staircase leading to the parking lot, so they took it and got to his car. He had a black Viper.

'Nice.' Karine thought. But even if he ha a Toyota, she wouldn't care (not that there's anything wrong with a Toyota) they got into his car, and left for her house.

"So, where exactly do you live?" Deryck asked.

"2300 Sakura ave." Karine said. Within a few minutes, he had pulled into her rather large driveway. The got out of the car, and walked up to her door. She took out her key and opened the door, and led Deryck in.

"Wow, big house." Deryck said.

"Yeah." Karine replied. "Come this way." They walked to her elevator, and got to her floor. There were many rooms, and they walked into one of them. Inside, there was a huge TV, which blocked the entire wall of one of the sides, and there was a big comfortable couch. Behind them, there was a popcorn machine, cotton candy machine, tons of junk food, and a large stack of DVD's.

"What do you want to watch?" Karine asked.

"Anything really." Deryck said.

"Hmmm, do you like Romeo and Juliet (the 2003 or 2 version...with Leonardo Decaprio)" Karine asked.

"Yeah. If I watch it, it'll be good practice for the play." Deryck said.

"Oh yeah, you're going to be Romeo, aren't you?" Karine said taking out the DVD from the large stack.

"Yeah. Are you trying out for anything?" He asked.

"Yup." Karine said pulling the cd out of the case and putting it in. "Juliet."

"Oh, then you'll most likely get the part." Deryck said.

"Awww, thanks!" Karine said taking the remote and taking a seat next to Deryck. "Hey, you start the movie, I'll be back in a few. I want to change into something more comfortable."

"Okay." Deryck said. When she left, his thoughts drifted back to mandy. She had done this. She came back in sexy and revealing clothes. A few minutes later, Karine came out, and she was wearing Comfy PJ bottoms, and a wife beater. Her hair was tied up, and her make-up removed. 'she looks gorgeous even without make-up.' He thought as she took a seat next to him. He hads been staring at her the whole time and Karine started to blush.

"Sorry." Deryck said 'she's different. Most girls would come here partically naked trying to get somewhere.' He thought.

"Okay, well, lets start the movie." Karine said turning off the lights, and leaving only the TV to provide light.

After the club date, Deryck was extremely attracted to her. Even their movie tastes were the same. Karine felt the same way too. No one had really liked her before. He seemed like a great guy, and maybe they could have a relationship.

The scene arrived when there was a kissing scene, but during that whole time, Karine and Deryck missed it, because they were kissing too. After a minute, they both broke the kiss and took in some air. They continued watching the movie, but they had snuggled together.

Now, the movie was over. It was 4:00 a.m. Sunday morning. They were both yawning, and extremely tired. They both fell asleep on the couch, where Karine was snuggled into his chest, and his arms were around her.


Authors note: How would you feel if someone you cared about died? My Aunt's husband's mom just died this morning. Its 10:48 a.m. Friday, May 28, 2004. I'm very sad, so I had to stop it here. It was c good spot to stop. This lady, she was always so kind. Every time it was Christmas or something, she would have presents for my sister and me. I remember seeing her in the chair at my Aunts house with a tank full of oxygen giving her air. She had damaged kidneys, urinary problems, and millions of other things. Last night, my dad was talking about how its amazing she's still alive. Well, not anymore. I'm very sad, and actually crying. She was bout 94 years old. Even though she was old, I believe she's gone to a better place. Now, she's with God. Thanks 4 reading this chapter. Sorry I haven't updated, but... this is extra long from what it was going to be.
