And then something clicked. "Wait..." he spoke to himself, "What if he thought my love for him was fake. That might explain his hatred towards me." He stayed quiet for a while.

"No...I'm probably wrong. Time to go!" he said and then exited his chambers. He said it was a hang out, but he really wants it to be a date.

He smiled to himself, "Alright! I can't wait!" His hands shit up above his head.


Chapter 3: A Date with a Jealous Prince

I finally got finished picking out something suitable for Kakkarot and I to hang out in. For some unknown reason, Kakkarot decided to introduce human clothing to Planet Son. I didn't want to admit it to him, but I actually like the human styles. I looked at myself in the giant mirror next to my bed for the millionth time in the last five minutes.

I put on the clothes that Kakkarot gave him for his birthday just a couple months ago...

/Flashback/

"Happy birthday, son. I'm happy that you have survived long enough for your fifteenth birthday. You know, with all of those dangerous missions you've been going on lately." said my father. He looked a lot like me, other than the goatee and beard. Another thing was that he was a lot taller than me, around the king's height. There was also one more thing that disturbed me. It was my body.

My body was a lot more feminine than his. Every time I look in the mirror, I always notice how girly my body is. Believe me, I am extremely strong, though not as strong as Kakkarot. My father gave me the talk before we came to this blasted party of mine. He told me that once every eight years, Planet Son's second moon will turn red.

He told me when Planet Son's turned red, means that all the 'developed' saiyans go into heat and rut. And then, he told me that since I have a more feminine body than all the other male elites and that my tail's hormones were more feminine, that I'll be going into heat. And that Kakkarot will be going into rut. When Kakkarot is in rut, we're going to have to mate. Father also told me that my heat will go away in a week, or until I get pregnant.

I didn't know how to answer to something like that. I kept imagining things in my head about what it would feel like when I was in heat, and I couldn't stop blushing. When I looked up to my sire, he had this weird look on his face. And then he told me to stop thinking about those sort of thing because I will attract to much attention with my scent. Apparently, when saiyans get aroused, there scent goes wild and it makes other saiyans going wild. Ugh, I didn't want to know that!

Okay, now back to the party.

I looked at my father and put on a fake smile on my face. "Thank you, father." I said to him. I really hated being around others. And he knew that, I just wanted to make him proud. He smiled at me too. And then I heard someone yell my name.

"Vegeta! Over here!" I heard my betrothed yell. I could feel my anger rising at his voice. I hated him for years now, and yet he still keeps coming back. I turned to where I heard the yell, and I saw him running towards me with two boxes in which I assumed were more presents. He stopped in front of me out of breath. He looked down at me and smiled. I hate being shorter than him.

"Hey, Vegeta. Happy 15th birthday!" he said excitedly. I saw that goofy smile cover his face as he handed me my presents.

I cautiously took the presents from him and set them on the table close by that was already filled with presents that were all mine. I turned back around to see Kakkarot looking around. This was the first time I looked around, and I noticed that all the saiyan elites were there. They were ranging from being my age to being in there fifties. I guess it was okay. I barely talk to them though. Honestly, I only talk when spoken to with these people. And when I do, I'm always in a bad mood. I only talk to Kakkarot, but I always end up getting into a fight with him.

Kakkarot turned back to me, and gave another smile when he said, "Well? Aren't you going to open them?"

I scowl at him, but for some reason, I can never say no to that smile. I was trying really hard to stop the blush from revealing itself. "I'll open them later, Kakkarot." I said.

And then, I saw him give those eyes and that pout. That face always gets to me..."Fine! I'll open them!" I say loudly. He grins, he always knows that, that stupid pout of his always gets to me. He acts like a child, even if he's three years older than me.

I open the big boxed present first to reveal clothes. Earth clothes at that. He gave me a sort of aqua-green colored shirt. It was long sleeved and the collar looked like it would go barely cover my chest. I look up at him, and his hands gave a motion for me to continue. I noticed that in the box, there was also two pairs of pants. One was some black slacks. The other were some really tight looking white pants. I couldn't help but blush, when I wondered how Kakkarot figured out what size I was. It was probably all those surprise hug he's been giving me lately.

"Are you going to wear it?" he asked and I turn to him. I again, don't know what to say. He looks at me with anticipation.

"I guess I would have to eventually." I say getting a smile in return. He took a step past me and got the smaller box, the box was completely white with a red ribbon that was keeping it from opening. It wasn't that big, it was like a box in where you put a ring in.

I open it with it still in Kakkarot's hand. I look to see what's inside and saw a bracelet. It looked like a tennis bracelet of some sort. It had Planet Son's rare diamonds, what made them rare was that it was naturally dark blue in color. The diamonds were cut into the perfect shapes and they shined brightly when they're hit with the sun. It was beautiful, I couldn't believe that Kakkarot got this for me. I couldn't help but smile at the bracelet in his hands.

"It's for you. You're going to be my mate, and I want the best for you, Vegeta." he said, and he reached for my left wrist. When I heard his words, I backed away from him in a frown and looked up at him.

He frowned at me backing away. He took another step closer with the bracelet still in his hands, and I backed away once again. "I don't want it, Kakkarot!" I yell.

"Why not?! I got it for you! You should be happy, Vegeta!" he yelled back at me. He walked forward, as I took another step back.

"I told you, I don't want it!" I swiped at it, and it fell to the floor a couple feet away from us. He turned to look at me. I saw his tail bristle, as his anger rose.

I instinctively curled my tail around my leg, afraid of what he might do. I know that Kakkarot wouldn't hurt me involuntarily, but I don't know what he would do when he was angry. He walked up to me, and I flinched instead of moving from him.

"Why don't you want to accept it, Vegeta?!" he asked loudly. His tail was flicking around behind him and his fists were clenched to his sides.

"J-Just because! I don't want a stupid bracelet to let people know that I'm your mate!" I yelled back at him, my tail bristling behind me as well.

I noticed that he gritted his teeth, and quickly turned to get the bracelet off the floor. Once he picked it up, he walked back to me. "Give me your wrist, Vegeta..." he said to me.

I don't know what to do. If I leave, he would just make a bigger scene. After a couple of seconds, I decided just to let him put the thing on me. I just thought that I'd take it off later. "Fine." I say, and then lift my arm for him.

I saw the smile on his face as he put the bracelet around my left wrist. His scent got calmer, and his tail went back to how it was before. When it was on, we both just stared at it. I didn't want to say it, but I love how it looked. "It looks really good on you, Vegeta." he says to me.

I turned away from him, trying to hide my burning face from him. Next thing I knew, he wrapped his arms around my waist. I started to struggle trying to get away from him, but then I heard his soft voice and breath close to my ear. "Thank you, Vegeta. Happy Birthday..." he says.

I stop struggling, and enjoyed the little peace we had with each other at that time. I love him so much. I was so happy when I saw that bracelet that he was going to give me. But then I heard his reason for giving it to me. 'The best for his future mate...'

I didn't like the sound of that. I am basically just something for him to toy with. Just something that our fathers agreed to when I was born. He knew after all those years we spent together as friends and he didn't say anything to me. He made me fall madly in love with him, that it hurts just to look at him.

With his arms still wrapped around me, I looked down at the bracelet that he gave me. He knew that blue was my favorite color. He knows a lot about me, I think more than I know of him. I never wanted to take it off. In my heart, I felt that Kakkarot did really have feelings for me. For some reason, this thing gave me hope...

/Flashback Over/

I looked at the deep, dark blue colored bracelet around my left wrist. Ever since that day, I have never taken it off other than to take a shower or when I'm training. I don't want it to break. Though, I usually make sure I hide it from Kakkarot's sight, so I hide underneath the clothes I'm wearing. I then look in the mirror again, and looked at my clothes. I picked out that light teal color shirt that he gave to me on my birthday. It covered most of my chest some of it slightly showing. It was sort of baggy too, curse my stupid, girly looking body. I was wearing the tight white jeans that he gave me. At least they weren't as baggy as the shirt, though because I'm shorter than most of the elites, I had ruffles at the bottom of the pants. I had made a hole in the pants' waist band so my tail could fit through it. I wore my white combat boots, that looked well with the way that how I was dressed.

I then heard a knock at my chamber door. I inhaled and then exhaled. This is it...

I open the door to see Kakkarot with that goofy smile on his face. "Hey, Vegeta. Are you ready?" he asked giving a wave hello at me. I tried desperately to stop the blush from coming to my cheeks. I just nodded, and walked past him.

"Hey, hold on a minute!" He yelled from behind me, as he grabbed my hand. I saw that his eyes were examining what I was wearing, and I could feel my face heat up more when he said, "You're wearing the clothes that I bought for you." He smiled and looked at my face, "They look really good on you."

GOKU'S POV

When I said that, I noticed that his face turned from a light blush to his face turned as red as a tomato. He stuttered out, "L-let's go and get this over with already!"

I chuckled to myself, as he yanked his hand away from my grip and started to quickly walk away. Maybe there is some hope for today. Maybe, Vegeta will accept my feelings towards him one day. And this date might just do the trick. "Okay!" I say and follow him.

It only took a couple of minutes to get to the little city, more like a town to me, since we decided to fly. When we landed, I started to look around looking for a place to start our date. Oops...I mean to start hanging out. I saw the closest thing to us was this type of flea market place. I saw all sorts of different things. Little saiyans dancing around with the different types of music, others bargaining with the sales people, jewelry, and most importantly...food.

I turned to Vegeta and saw that he had on his usual scowl on his face. And I sigh, why did he have to change so much from the loving person he used to be? He was looking around and I notice that his face lightened up when he saw the children playing around. He especially focused on two little boys around the age of eight or so. I looked at them as well as seeing what was so interesting about the two.

The smaller of the two was chasing the older-looking one around the market plaza. "Rin! Come back here! I'm gonna catch you!" the little one said to to the boy named Rin.

Rin looked back at the boy who he was being chased by and yelled, "Come on, Karisu! I know you can run faster than that!"

"Rin, watch out!" the little boy, Karisu, yelled. The Rin boy turned around from the other boy and saw that he was about to hit the brick wall from one of the buildings.

CRASH!

I wince at the sound. "OUCH!" I heard the older boy yell. I heard the young one, Karisu, yell the other name.

I look back to where Vegeta was and noticed that he wasn't there anymore, causing me to look around, "Vegeta?"

"Are you okay, boy?" I heard someone say. I turn back to the kid and saw that Vegeta was there kneeling beside the two of them. Rin was trying to support the tears back. He kept turning to Karisu. Oh, I get it. Rin likes Karisu.

I saw him look up at Vegeta and scowl at him saying, "I'm just fine! I don't need your help!"

I felt anger in me for talking to Vegeta like that. But, I tried to keep it under control and watch how Vegeta will react. Vegeta kept his poker face when I saw that the Karisu boy was about to yell at the older one. "He was only trying to help, Rin! Leave him alone!" He yelled.

Rin gave a look at Karisu. He looked like he didn't know what to say, and I could see that he was gritting the teeth. It was then that I noticed the huge red bump on his forehead. I try to keep myself from laughing, and I covered my mouth again.

Karisu's eyes widened as he saw that giant bump, "Oh my! Look at the giant bump on your forehead!" he said.

Rin's eyes widened and took one if his hands and touched his forehead. "Ow!" he yelled as he touched it.

Karisu looked really worried about Rin. And got up close to his face. He stood on his toes so that he was face to face with the other, and then he touched the bump on his forehead gently. "Are you okay, Rin? It looks like it really hurts."

I snickered when I noticed the blush on his the face of the little. I notice Vegeta standing up and getting out of there way, and letting them have there moment. "I-I'm fine..." he said slowly, the blush getting deeper by the second.

Vegeta gave him a stern look. I don't think he noticed the obvious blush on the boys cheeks. "Are you sure you're alright, boy? Most people don't run into a brick wall often." He chuckled out the last part. I saw the Rin boy glare at Vegeta, and I felt like glaring at him too.

I walked over to them and stood next to Vegeta, and he pretended not to notice me. The Karisu kid didn't notice me until the Rin boy's eyes widened. Karisu got a confused and turned to look at what he was looking at. He gasped when he saw me. "It's Prince Kakkarot!" Karisu yelled.

I heard gasps from around us. So they finally noticed me. Great...the last thing I wanted to do was attract attention. I'm still looking down at the two on the floor. And I look at Rin, "You know Rin, it's not nice to get angry at people who are trying to help you." I say to him. I was referring to Vegeta.

I looked at Vegeta and I noticed that he was looking at me too. He quickly turned his eyes back to the two kids and crossed his arms, I then did too. I saw that they were still on the floor. So, I decided to lend them a hand. I extend my hand to them and they just looked at it like it was there imagination or something.

Sometimes I wish that I wasn't the prince, then they wouldn't be so surprised with everything I do. "Here, take my hand. I'll help you up." I say to Rin. He stared up at me then looked at my hand again. It took him a while to take it, but he did.

I brought him up in a swift movement and then he was up on his feet with the Karisu boy right beside him. I again notice that Rin has arm protectively in front of Karisu. Oh...I get it. This Rin likes Karisu. I guess they'll get mated when they get older.

I smile to myself at the thought of Vegeta being my mate. I can see him with our children. They have a little of both of our appearances like that. And when I picture him pregnant, I see him rubbing his stomach gently, and him wagging his tail happily waiting for the child to be born. He looks so gentle in my head. But then, it goes back to reality. And then everything comes together. Vegeta has changed so much since then. And I can't help to think that it was all my fault.

I hear one of the kids voice and that snaps me out of my thoughts. "Thank you, Prince Kakkarot." Karisu said to me. I smile and nod to him. The kid is so adorable. I saw him turn to Vegeta then to me then to Vegeta again.

"T-thank you, princess." he says to Vegeta and he bowed deeply at his waist. Vegeta gasped in surprise, and I saw his arms flying from his chest. And I'm trying really hard not to laugh right now that I'm covering my mouth with both hands.

"Don't say that! I'm not a princess!" Vegeta yelled at the two boys. And that's when I couldn't handle it anymore, and I bursted out laughing. Vegeta clenched his hands into fists, and turned to me. "Would you shut up, Kakkarot! This is all your fault! Argh! I knew I shouldn't have come today!" He yelled at me.

I looked over to him, trying to calm down my laughter. "Hahaha! I'm sorry, Vegeta! I-I just couldn't help myself! HAHAHAHA!" For some reason, I couldn't stop laughing. I looked over at Vegeta and saw that his face was as red as a tomato. Both Karisu and Rin didn't know what was wrong with calling Vegeta a princess. I guess they think we're out on a date.

"Enough, shut up already, Kakkarot! You've been laughing for almost five minutes!" Vegeta yelled. He was right. I'm trying so hard to calm myself. I took me a couple of seconds but I did stop laughing.

"Sorry, Vegeta." I said. Vegeta scowled at me and then crossed his arms over his chest again. He looked away from me with his back turn from me too. As usual, he was being stubborn as usual. And he started to walk off.

"Vegeta! I said I was sorry! W-come back!" He wasn't listeing to me at all. I started going off towards him, until I was hounded by the towns people. They kept asking me questions, and more people just kept coming. I try to look over everyone, looking for Vegeta. And I notice him being hounded by men. That got my blood boiling.

"Please, excuse me guys! I'm here with someone!" I yell as I start to push my way through the people trying to get my attention. When I finally got a closer look at Vegeta and the three guys with him, I noticed that the three guys looking at him were wagging their tails like dogs. No, he's mine!

From where I stand, I can hear them talking with my saiyan hearing. "So, you live around here, cutie?" said the one with a scar over his right eye. He was the one in the middle. I look from him to Vegeta to see what he would say.

"You could say that. Why do you ask?" I hear him say. He looked sort of confused on why anybody would ask him that. His attention goes to the other one standing infront of him, on his left.

The guy was a little taller than the other and his tail had this horrible scent to it. I don't why the others would want to be near him. "So, are you here with anyone?" he asks Vegeta.

I turn back to Vegeta, he says nothing. I guess he noticed that I was close by sonce he turned his head in my direction, then back to the guy on the left. I saw the smirk on his face, I guess that was addressed to me since what he said nest got my blood boiling. "No, not at all. I'm just looking around." he said.

Dammit! He knows that I'm watching him! The other of the three guys speaks to Vegeta. His shoudlers are really buff, he is larger than I am. He sort of looks like Nappa, except that he has a full set a hair, and that he doesn't have that mustache. "Great! Why don't you come and hang with us?" he asks.

I saw Vegeta raise an eyebrow. "Hang out? With you three?" he asked, and he got the three to nod. Vegeta was deciding what to do. He looked towards me, and back at the three again. I saw his tail flick. He better say no. "Sure, why not. It's better than being alone."

I knew it! I knew he was going to say that! Vegeta! You know you're with me so why are you dong this?! I stood there, watching them walk away. I watched what they were doing. And I exploded when the guy with the scar on his eye put his arm around Vegeta. And Vegeta didn't refuse! I can't stand it anymore! Get your hands off my Vegeta! And that's when I snapped.

I clenched my fist and started walking towards them. This was supposed to be the perfect date! And Vegeta had to go and ruin it! He just can't wait to make me angry! As I got closer, my tail started swishing harshly behind me. I saw Vegeta slightly turn his head to me, but he didn't fully turn his head. He knew that I was coming. My tail was sending the scent of my anger. Dammit! I saw the other three notice my presence too, but it was too late for them.

I punched two of them at there sides, which left the guy with his arm around Vegeta. In his face, I could see his horror. Yet, he still didn't let go of Vegeta. Let go of him! He's mine! He's all mine! I took his arm away from Vegeta's waist and snapped his wrist. He screamed his pain.

He stopped screaming after a while, and he looked up at me. "W-why would you do that?!" he yelled. I don't think he recognized who I was. I looked down at him. He was still holding his broken wrist in his other hand. I was still glaring at him. I didn't answer his question, and turned to Vegeta who's face didn't change. He was still wearing that poker face of his. I want to know what he is thinking!

"Why would you do that, Vegeta?!" I yell at him. Again, he crossed his arm and looked at me. Like he didn't care that I just broke someones wrist. Which he might not have.

He speaks, "What do you mean, Kakkarot? I didn't do anything wrong."

My tail flicked around again, and that got his attention. He started to look a little cautious. "You! You're here with me! And nobody else!" I yell at him.

I get closer to him, and wrap my arms tightly around his body. "You're mine! Only mine!" I say.

I hear him gasp. And that's when I snap out of it. I loosen my grip on him, but still hold him in my arms. I can feel how tense he is. After a long moment, I feel him pushing at my chest. And I let him slip away. He looks up at me with his fists still on my chest. "What are you trying to say, Kakkarot?" he asks me.

I look down to him. I want to say it. I have to...I can't hold it in anymore. I need him, Vegeta, so bad.

"It means...that I want to be with you. That I want to spend my life with you. I want to have children with you. And I want us to live together...I love you, Vegeta..."
