Disclaimer: For the eighth darn time. I DO NOT OWN DRAGONBALLZ!

I know I haven't updated for ages I AM SOOO SORRY. I have been really busy and besides my computer got a virus, again. Anyway back to the story. THERE WILL BE SOME ROMANCE IN THIS CHAPTER! Hooray! Also if I don't change my mind this is the last chapter! Then later on I will do a sequel (maybe) if I get enough reviews for this thing.

Chapter 8: A sound of Thunder

A week had gone by since the night Bulma had cried herself to sleep. Things had got better since then. She could truthfully admit to herself and anyone else that she was finally over Yamcha. It was true she felt lonely. However there was Vegeta and though nothing had happened between them since that day in the kitchen she always felt a lot better when he was around.

"And freak storms are expected to occur in the West City area this afternoon, people are advised to stay indoors until it passes. Also Hercule Satan has saved an old woman from a fatal accident as he managed to crash his limousine deliberately into another oncoming car that could have hit…"

Bulma switched the television off. She doubted Hercule had really meant to do what he did and quite frankly she didn't care. She was more concerned about the storm, which not only meant she would get soaked if she had to go outside for any reason but it also completely blew of her shopping trip. She hadn't been shopping for ages. The last time she had gone into the city was when she got her hair changed from that perm thing. She sighed and stood up deciding to see if lunch was ready. He mother had been preparing a roast all morning.

Later that evening Bulma was sitting in the living room at her laptop typing up a program for her father's latest project. The rain was beating heavily against the windows. Vegeta hadn't come for lunch, when she had gone out to get him she had found the gravity room empty. She had been worried at first but had come to the conclusion he had gone somewhere peaceful to meditate. After all he had no reason to do anything else, this situation was nothing like the last time he had disappeared. She finished her work and saved it. She wasn't hungry so she decided that when her mother called her for supper she would turn it down. She decided to watch a movie then go to bed. She guessed Vegeta would turn up sooner or later. By the time the movie had finished the storm was really bad. So bad she was worried that something was going to get damaged. She swore when she remembered the air ship that she had been testing early that morning. She had forgotten to put it back in it's capsule. Cursing again she fetched her coat and a pair of shoes and went outside. Immediately she was soaked through o the skin.

"So much for the coat." She muttered.

Walking around the back of the building she found the air ship. It had been slightly damaged. In fact it looked as though lightening had struck one of its jet boosters meaning she would have to fix it, but not now. Bulma went up and pressed the button that capsulated the large transport.

"I am going to have a warm shower as soon as I get back inside."

Hurrying into the building she raced up the stairs to her families living quarters. Once there she kicked of her shoes a hurriedly took her useless coat off. She then ran to her room and into her bathroom. She couldn't wait for that shower. The rain had chilled her to the bone. She hoped Vegeta was all right and not too cold.

Once out of the shower she got ready for bed, she was tired and wanted to get a good night's sleep before she had to fix that blasted air ship the next day.

Vegeta got up from his sitting position. He looked out at the rain, which had created a miniature waterfall from the cave's mouth. He stretched, stiff after sitting with his legs crossed for over five hours. He had made his decision. He knew what he was going to do; at least he hoped he did. He powered up and erected a small ki shield to protect himself from the weather. He stepped out of the cave and took off leaving a blue trail behind him. How he longed for that trail to become gold.

Bulma angrily turned over. She couldn't get to sleep. The storm was raging outside her window and she was all alone. She hated being alone; she had new admiration for Vegeta. He had been alone for most of his life. She didn't wish Yamcha were with her though. She wasn't going to think of him at all. However she wished she had someone, someone who loved her for who she was, not just for her looks. She believed everyone needed someone to be happy. Turning over again she tried to get to sleep however, though she was tired she just couldn't close her eyes and just drift of. The storm was becoming even worse, she could actually feel the building shake. Gradually fear took hold of her. She started imagining voices in the storm as the wind howled and the rain beating against the window became people trying to get in. In the corner of her head she knew these things were stupid but because she was tired her mind was playing tricks on her. She wished someone would come and comfort her, she felt so alone, so scared. She began to cry. She sat up and hugged the pillow tightly to he body. She felt foolish and weak but she couldn't help it. Suddenly Bulma felt strong, warm arms wrap themselves around her. Looking up she saw dark eyes shining, looking at her. And within those eyes she saw a mixture of emotions, all of them swirling about, she had done this before. However this time they were even clearer than that time. Bulma found her self looking into the very depths of the soul of the Saiyan Prince. She was the first and last person to ever do this.

"Bulma?"

"Vegeta."

"Are, are you okay?"

"I am now, I just got scared, I was so alone."

"It sucks."

"I know. I don't ever want to be alone again."

"You won't be."

"You know what Vegeta?"

"No, I haven't made his acquaintance. If he's anything like kakarot then don't bother introducing me." He smirked

Bulma ignored the comment, "Vegeta."

"Yeah."

"I think I may love you."

He kissed her gently then pulled away. Bulma knew what it meant. She knew that she was never going to be alone again. She had found her prince at last.

Yes The mysteries of love The mysteries of passion

Hearts join together on the world that goes on turning

Yes The mysteries of love

So let's go look for it

LOVE BE LAVE DA LA! You don't look like your serious

LOVE DO LAVE BE LA! Yes love is magic

I'll tell you (What is love) a sweet secret

And there's no way you'll find the answer alone

Yes The mysteries of love Oh such wonderful mysteries

Let's make a journey to the world of love

I'm your flower and you're my

So together we go!

LOVE BE LAVE DA LA! Whisper these words only to me

LOVE DO LAVE BE LA! I dedicate them only to you

Promise me (Love magic) Cross your fingers

Tonight the hands of time will turn only for us

Beating hearts Warm bodies

That smile The shining tomorrow

I feel like singing these thoughts out

I feel like dancing on these feelings

Well that's the end folks. The song is called Koi no NazoNazo and it is Bulma and Vegeta's official theme together. And no I didn't write it (that's for any of those touchy 'We are gonna sue you' people).

So please give me your reviews,
