Chapter 7:

The days at the hospital went by quickly and they settled home with Trunks. The first couple of days when they arrived home were decent but as the month went on, Vegeta barely helped with Trunks. Bulma was tired because she stayed up all day and night, feeding and changing Trunks.

"Vegeta… Can you change Trunks right quick? My mom is going to take him to her quarter of the house so I can get some rest." Bulma yelled from the bathroom, gathering all of Trunks things he will need.

"No, woman! That is not my job." Vegeta stated as he crossed his legs while sitting on the sofa that they had in their room.

Bulma rolled her eyes and rushed to change Trunk's diaper. Soon after, a knock was at the door. "Coming in Bulma." Mrs. Brief yelled as she entered the room. "Hello, Vegeta."

Vegeta didn't say a word.

"Here mom, this is everything you need. Thank you for this break. I need these couple of days to rest." Bulma sighed as she picked up and handed Trunks over to her mom.

"No problem dear. Now you enjoy your rest okay." Mrs. Brief stated as she walked away.

Bulma leaned against the door and let out a deep breath.

"Now, for some rest." Bulma stated as she walked over to her bed.

"I'm going off to train for a while." Vegeta stated as he got up.

"Are you coming home for dinner? It will be nice to have a date." Bulma asked as she sat on the bed.

"I will come back whenever I feel like it." Vegeta stated back without looking at her.

"Vegeta, It will be nice for you to come home for a date, we don't spend any time together." Bulma exclaimed as she stood up and tried to hug Vegeta from behind.

"Get off of me woman. " Vegeta stated as he pushed her onto the bed and leaned towards her. "And don't question me again."

Vegeta went out the window and took off to the sky.

"I guess I will just have dinner by myself and get some rest." She thought to herself.

So during the day, she went to the lab, completed some reports, ordered some Chinese take out and decided to take a shower. Once she finished her shower she decided to get in her nice bed to finally get her first night of full sleep. Bulma's mind drifted off to Goku as she closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

The night went on and Vegeta finally arrived at their room's window. Vegeta had a long day with training. It ended as the night was a full moon, and on the full moon saiyan can hormones change. Usually Vegeta would just fight to take the edge off when he was absent for those months or pick up a random woman but tonight he wanted Bulma. He was going to let out all of his frustrations on her.

Vegeta stepped into the room and noticed her sleeping so peacefully. Vegeta's edge did not only come from the full moon but he hated the fact that his son did not have a saiyan tail.

"This woman couldn't even produce a male heir that had tail and black hair. His hair is purple and his power level is weak." He thought to himself. " Based on his birth power level, he is destined to be a weakling like his mother."

Bulma shifted in her sleep and noticed Vegeta was standing near the bed.

"Oh you came home." She stated with her eyelids half closed. "How was your training?"

"My training…" Vegeta looked at Bulma with disgust, and lifted his hand towards her and slapped her face. The force of his hit sent Bulma off the bed and into the wall.

Bulma grabbed her face and stared in fear. Her pupils went small as feared for her life at that moment.

"Vegeta?" Bulma asked "What did I do?"

"What did you do? You produced a weakling male heir without a tail." Vegeta stated as he walked towards her with speed.

"Vegeta… you stated that you wouldn't hit me again." She tried to back up towards the wall, blocking her face.

"Well, I lied." Vegeta stated as he hit her in the stomach. Bulma gasped for air as she leaned towards the ground. "This is going to be a long night for you Bulma."

~At Goku's house in the woods~

Goku was sleeping in his bed as he suddenly jumped out of the bed. "Something is wrong.." Goku thought to himself as he sensed over to Capsule Corp and visually saw Bulma laying on the floor bruised and bloody and Vegeta standing over her. "Bulma."

Goku immediately instant transmission to Bulma's room.

~Back at Capsule Corp~

"Get up! " Vegeta yelled as he lifted his fist in the air to strike Bulma again. But was immediately stopped as Goku grabbed his wrist.

"What do you think you are doing Vegeta?" Goku yelled as he pushed Vegeta back.

"Move Kakarott, this is none of your concerns." Vegeta stated as he stood his ground growling at Goku.

Goku could feel Vegeta's energy was off due to the full moon. Goku could feel the edge from the full moon, so this altercation will help resolve his edge.

"Leave here and don't return." Goku instructed.

"You came all the way to save this weakling… or screw her because of the full moon. I know you were raised on Earth but I know the full moon does affect you." Vegeta stated as he pointed at Bulma.

"I'm here to save her from you." Goku stated as he took his fighting stance.

"Oh really. Are you trying to be her hero or something." Vegeta burst out laughing. "Don't make me laugh."

Bulma sat up and barely opened her eyes and saw Goku standing in front of her.

"Goku.." Bulma whispered, catching Goku's attention. "You're here"

Goku immediately turned and kneeled towards Bulma, "Of course. I told you, I will always be here for you."

"Aww… How cute, a third class warrior and a weakling. That's a match made in heaven." Vegeta ran and tried to punch Goku, but he immediately blocked it.

Goku stood up and took his fighting stance as they began to fight. The fighting seems like it lasted for hours, for the moon gave the saiyans another form of energy. Goku eventually overpower Vegeta. Vegeta fell to the ground barely able to move.

"Now… Leave Vegeta . You are not welcomed here anymore." Goku stated.

Vegeta stood up and looked at Goku and then Bulma.

"You can have the weakling of a woman and that weakling of a son too. I will make a new heir." Vegeta jumped out the window and flew off. Goku then took a deep breath and looked at Bulma. He immediately bend towards her and reached out to touch her scars and bruises. He saw the tears that fell from her blue crystal eyes.

"I'm sorry Goku." Bulma whispered as she clenched her stomach.
"Bulma. I will be here for you and I will not let you go again." Goku whispered as he gently grabbed her, holding her in his arms. "I promise I will be there for you and Trunks. I will not let any hurt come to you again." He squeezed her as he felt her tears on his bare chest. " I promise I will do all I can to help you heal. I will be your hero."
