HIGH SCHOOL BLUES

Chapter 2

Vegeta stared at Liz as she smirked and stroked his face. Then, the last thing Vegeta had expected happened. Liz smacked him across the face. It wasn't that Liz did something violent that surprised him; it was just that she was just coming on to him and cooing him, then she just smacked him out of nowhere. Vegeta blinked a few times and waited for Liz to do something else. Waiting was all he could do, seeing as Liz was sitting on him with no intentions of moving anytime soon. She showed no emotion on her face, and to add another to his list of surprises, he saw Raditz and Turles were entering the room. He was totally confused. Raditz smiled and looked down at Vegeta.

"So you're going to help us spray-paint the back of Principle Redwood's truck?" Vegeta stared at Raditz, his head abuzz. What the hell was going on here? As Vegeta looked back to Liz's face he immediately knew the answer. She was looking arrogant, and proud, like she did whenever Bruno hit him. When his dad thought he was the one who had smoked. When he got kicked out of school and looked at his father's disappointed and grieved face. Liz had tricked him into thinking she was going to harm him and he believed her. She made him think… she always did this to him! Vegeta felt a hot burning in his chest and angrily tried to push her off, but for being so petite and small she sure had some strength in her. She pushed him back down and rolled off of him to the floor. Raditz lifted an eyebrow.

"Playing. Goofing off. That's all we were doing." Liz lied to Raditz and shot Vegeta a loathing look. Vegeta figured this wasn't going to turn out quite good on his behalf. Raditz nodded and turned to Turles.

"Tomorrow at 4:30 we're going to raid and paint Redwood's car. Liz overheard us and said she'd help and that you would probably be interested." Turles said gruffly. "Now if you'll get off my bed…" Vegeta frowned and jumped off, staring at Liz with obvious distaste. "Thanks." Said Turles oblivious to all this. It almost made Vegeta sick. Why was everyone so oblivious? It was like they didn't know what was right in front of their face.

"Yeah, I'll do this with you. I'm going to bed right now. Goodnight." He stated going upstairs to his bedroom. He looked at the ceiling and breathed through his nose heavily. Some day, maybe things would change. Some day. With these thoughts, he slowly went to sleep.

…………………

Vegeta awoke to someone screaming about school in his ear. He blinked a couple of times wondering what kind of idiot would barge into someone's room yelling like this guy, before he remembered everything the night before. Goku and brothers came to spend the night. Liz being an ass. Paint-ball. Right. Vegeta yawned and looked out his window. Why was it so light out? Didn't he have school toda—oh crud…

"WE'RE LATE! VEGETA WAKE UP, SCHOOL'S STARTED ALREADY!" Goku was saying this and pulling on a pair of blue jeans and an orange sleeveless muscle shirt.

"Aww…" Vegeta muttered in disgust. Warn me before you change your clothes man… it's disturbing…" Goku frowned.

"Vegeta, hurry up and put on your clothes! My dad stopped to see if we made it to school all right and we were still sleeping! Chi Chi is going to be so mad at me…." Goku looked worried and a bit nervous. Vegeta rolled his eyes.

"Your wrench can wait, Goku. I want to go back to sleep." Vegeta rolled over and pulled his covers over his head, only to have Goku yank them off and pull him off the bed. "Damn it, Goku!" he shouted and trudged over to his dresser grabbing out a pair of gasoline jeans with a rip in the knee, and a black shirt that read 'misfits'. Goku was hightailing it down the hallway and down the stairs. Probably for food. Good. Now Vegeta didn't have to explain bruises and scratches on his body. Vegeta followed him when he was done changing before a thought popped up in his head.

"How are we going to get to school?" He asked aloud, he didn't have a car of his own yet though his dad said he would get him one for his 18th birthday. Which was in April. Hurrah. Big help that would be now. Goku looked at him and answered.

"Dad dropped Turles off at my house. Turles is going to get his Jaguar and drive us to school." As he said this, Raditz came upstairs.

"You kiddies getting dropped off at school with Turles? Ah, high school: the worse days of my life. I hated my senior year the most, incidentally." Vegeta arched his eyebrows and stared at him.

"Yeah, thanks for the support, Radditz."

"It just inspires you, doesn't it?" he replied. A green slick car drove in the driveway. Goku made a whiny face.

"I didn't even get to eat breakfast," he said.

……………………

Bulma listened to her Read Advisory teacher drone on and looked around the class. There was no sign of Goku, and Vegeta hadn't gotten on the bus. She assumed they were both playing hooky. Why else wouldn't they be here right now? Chi Chi wasn't happy at all.

"I knew that Vegeta would have a bad influence on my Goku! I can't believe him! My Goku would never do anything like that on his own!" Chi Chi's rant went on and on from then and through most of the class. In 10 minutes, they would get out of this class. Thank God. The door slammed open and Bulma dropped the book she was reading. Pendragon, black water. Mark and Courtney were just about to try to flume, too! Damn it! Vegeta, following Goku walked into the class. Mrs. Hannigan looked up and addressed the boys.

"Would you mind explaining why you are late?" she asked testily. Goku smiled sheepishly and shrugged. Vegeta sighed and answered.

"We were late because we slept in. Now give us the damn tarty so we can get on with our lives." Mrs. Hannigan looked startled as she heard his reply.

"Mr. Ouji! I will let you off with a warning this time, but if it ever happens again I will give you a detention!" Goku, unnoticed by the teacher, walked to Krillin, carefully avoiding Chi Chi, and sat down.

"Do what? Be late or say 'damn'?"

"Mr. Ouji!"

"Alright, alright! I'm going to my desk! Sheesh!" Vegeta said and slumped over to a desk by miss blue hair, amidst to the snickering of the other students. Bulma made a face at him.

"I'm not talking to you," she stated. Vegeta turned to her.

"Good. That's a major improvement," he replied. Bulma growled and turned away.

"I don't know why I tried to be friends with you yesterday. You're such a pig head."

"Well I don't know why you tried to, either. But please stop talking to me. You were doing so fine for a while there." Bulma frowned and stared at Vegeta.

"I don't know what your problem is," she said and looked at her book.

"Well neither does anyone else, so stop talking to me and read your book." Something about the way he said that made Bulma look up and try to look him in the eye, but he avoid eye-contact like the plague now. A few seconds later, the bell rang, and Vegeta bolted out the door, leaving a clueless Bulma behind.

………………

Nothing extraordinary or anything happened in Math class, other than Vegeta shooting a hornet at the back of Launch's head. (A/N do you know what a hornet is? We make loads and get in trouble with them all the time at my school... I'll tell you what they are at the end of this chapter if you don't know.) She didn't like that much. Goku dragged his feet to each class while Chi Chi balled him out the whole time, Krillin started to get back in his comic groove attitude, 17 and 18 the cool dudes, Tien the laidback man, Goku the goof, Launch, Bulma and Chi Chi pretty and popular, Vegeta the new kid with a kick ass solemn attitude. Their reputations went around the school like a wild fire. Vegeta, never being to this school before, aroused the most curiosity—to Vegeta's great annoyance. He would rather be overlooked than stared at all the time and being the main reason for conversation. He liked attention and being above others, but being the new kid and being judged all the time sure could make you want to kick yourself in the head.

As lunch approached, Vegeta found himself looking out the window, ignoring everyone else's chatter. He was thinking about Kame—that thing Goku mentioned on the phone—and how he was going to sneak out of the house this weekend. He thought Kame was probably a place… oh well. He would get more information about it at lunch, which was just around the corner. The bell rang and eager students ran out to the lunchroom. Vegeta followed walking slowly, weighing options in his mind.

…………………

As everyone filled up the table, Vegeta immediately spotted and sat next to Goku. He needed to find out about Kame. Goku was stuffing his mouth full with Tuna Casserole. Feeling a bit agitated, Vegeta did the same. When Goku looked like he was done Vegeta asked him a question.

"What the hell is Kame, Goku?" A bit blunt, but it would do. Goku looked at Vegeta and gave him a grin.

"A house. It belongs to Roshi. We go there and hang out, do stuff… it's a blast, I know you'll like it," he replied grabbing Yamcha's half-eaten chicken. Yamcha frowned and grabbed the chicken back, making Goku start to complain. "Oh come on Yamcha… I didn't eat breakfast today…"

"Well, that's not my problem. Go eat Tien's or Krillin's food or something." Goku deflated and Vegeta, not pleased with the answer he received, slumped in his seat and willed the weekend to get closer.

I am so sorry this was such a short chapter. You can flame me if you want, but I promise I'll make up the shortness of this in the next chapter. I'm going to submit a chapter twice a week as I said before, so wait Monday or Tuesday for the forth one. In that chapter, that's when the good stuff is going to happen, because Vegeta will sneak out and you'll all know what they do at the Kame house. Again, I apologize, but I update more regularly than a lot of others, don't I? Please don't be too pissed to review! I am new to this ya' know? Love you reviewers (dearly not clearly) don't shoot me I'm just a kid!
