Chapter 19 (wow already?)
So, Vegita thought in the back of his mind, I've made a deal with a complete stranger. Just to catch this annoying woman who can make my transformation disappear... God, I am that desperate?
After some thinking, the prince came to a conclusion. Yes, yes I am. Bulma, on the other hand, seemed too carefree, as they walked past the stores and sidewalk cafes. So carefree, in fact, that she must be up to no good. Of course, Vegita didn't know about this because he really wasn't paying attention and he didn't know Bulma all that well. When this heiress was whistling a happy tune and smiling at random strangers, that was a huge warning sign to all her friends. She had a scheme cooking up in that brilliant brain of hers.
What is that you ask? Well, I'm not going to tell you because Mr. Rick Rickstein is on his way to make sure Vegita gets his girl.
"Pssstt!" Vegita's sensitive ears pick up the tiny sound. "Psssstt!" He looked around, searching for the sound's owner. "Hey! It's me! Rick!" Vegita looked up and saw the cloaked man up in a tree. "Hey I need you to put this in your ear." Rick handed him a small black object as best as he could without falling out of the tree.
"What is it?"
"It's a device that lets me communicate with you and tell you what you need to do to get your girl."
"No mushy stuff!"
"Not my thing man. Now, put it on."
Normally, the prince would never obey someone like that but, desperate times called for desperate measures. And this truly was a desperate time. He signed as he force the device into his ear and tried to block the uncomfortable feeling once he was done. "Hey, pal," whispered Rick into a small microphone, "Can you hear me?"
Vegita flinched. "It's loud."
Rick messed with the microphone and said, "Can you hear me now? Hehe. I always wanted to say."
"Yes, it's fine-
"VEGITA! Where are you!"
Vegita quickly turned away from the tree and conversion with Rick and walked briskly toward Bulma. "What were you doing?" she asked.
"I was... um... admiring your earthly shrubbery. Yes, that sounds about right... on Planet Frieza no such plants existed and well, it reminds me of my home planet's trees." (A/N: Smooth Veggie!)
Bulma blinked, "Oh." Then she looked away from him, her eyes shifting to a small coffee shop. "I'm thirsty," she said, "Let's go get some coffee!" Bulma grabbed Vegita's arm and lead him to a table under an yellow umbrella. She sat down and looked around for a waiter as Vegita sat down mumbling how the great prince of blah, blah, blah. Blah blah blah. Blah, blah, blah.
"Can I help you?" said a voice that sounded much too familiar to Vegita. The "waiter" that was about to serve them was none other than Rick Rickstein with a fake curly mustache on. Vegita looked at him with a perplexed expression and began to rub his head. Bulma gave him a big grin.
"A coffee and," replied Bulma, "and... what do you want, Vegita?"
"Jack Daniel's on the rocks," he said still rubbing his head. Bulma looked at him with sheer confusion. "Um... okay... if that's what you want..."
Rick interrupted, "Two beers coming up!" He fled the scene.
Bulma looked after him, confused, but after thinking about it she shrugged her shoulders.
Vegita's ear began to twitch, "Hey, Vegita? I'm coming out with the drinks pretty soon, but why don't you start up a conversion? Ask her how her day was."
Vegita rolled his eyes and asked, "So... how was your day?"
And she's off! Talking about waking up, getting dressed, drinking coffee all in super fast speed that not even Vegita could comprehend. "She talking away?" Rick asked through the microphone. Vegita nodded. "Ok, now if she stops, say 'That's very interesting. Tell me more.'"
Bulma stopped and took a breath. She looked at Vegita as though waiting for an answer. "Um...," Vegita said hesitantly, "That's very interesting. Tell me more."
She was off again. "Now," said Rick, "When she's done repeat the last sentence she said and say, 'I've never thought about that before.'"
"So what I'm saying is if you're going to make cheese ringlets, at least make them look like ringlets."
"'If you're going to make cheese ringlets, at least make them look like ringlets.' I've never thought about that before."
"You see? Then I'm told that would harm the seal population. What kind of bull is that!"
Suddenly, Rick appeared with two margarita.
"I thought we were going to get beers," said Vegita.
"I changed my mind," Rick replied, setting the beverages on the table. He bowed and left to hide in the shadows. Not very well, though.
Bulma looked after him then turned to Vegita, "I shouldn't give him a tip right?"
"Nope," the prince replied sipping on his margarita. Bulma signed and twiddled her thumbs. Then she said, "Vegita, I wanna talk to you about something."
"If it's about that one guy, I did not know he was behind the car!"
"What! No! It's about something else."
"Then continue."
"It's about that day when Goku came to eat with us and we...," she trailed off.
"Say not more Woman," Vegita signed.
"Say not more?"
"Shut up. An error on the writer's part."
"Well, anyway. Since I broke up with Yamcha and we- I can't say this any other way- made out... I think we should...," Bulma trailed off again.
"We should what?"
"Hold on! I'm getting there! Well, I think we should go out!"
Silence.
Vegita raised an eyebrow, "Aren't we already outside?"
Bulma blinked, "No. What I meant was I think we should be boyfriend and girlfriend."
More silence.
Vegita blinked, "Why do we keep having these 'Silence' moments?"
"I have no idea," Bulma answered, "But what do you think?"
"I guess...why not?" Vegita said shrugging.
"Really?" She said happily.
"Sure."
"Yay!" said Bulma jumping up then chugging down her margarita. "Let's go do some Boyfriend/Girlfriend things!"
"Really? Right now? Are you sure? Because we just got together and-"
"NO! Boyfriend/Girlfriend things now!" Bulma cried and slapped a hundred dollar bill on the table. She grabbed Vegita's arm and pulled him away.
What fantastic Boyfriend/Girlfriend things will our favorite couple do? I have no idea... I'm just dragging this story out... I should end it... NOT! Mwhahahahahahahaha!
Sorry about the long wait... Very busy, but now that school is over. I'll have time over the summer to finally finish this story! Wee!
