Chi Chi and Goku immediately ran off to find the blue-haired princess. Vegeta crossed his arms. He didn't care about the blue-haired wench. She wasn't his problem.
"Go see what is wrong with her brat," King Vegeta ordered.
Vegeta scowled and followed his body guard.
Goku and Chi Chi walked into Bulma glaring viciously at the video screen in front of her. They looked to where the princess was looking, on the screen was Frieza's right hand man- Zarbon.
"What are you doing on my planet!" Bulma yelled.
"Now now Princess you shouldn't talk like that," Zarbon waved his index finger as he spoke.
"Where in the hell are my parents you.." Bulma was cut off by a certain someone.
"Imbecile," Vegeta finished.
Bulma turned to the Saiyan Prince. He smirked at her. She rolled her eyes and looked back to the screen.
"I'll tell your parents you send your regards Princess," Zarbon replied.
"If you touch a hand on their head you freak, I'll-" she was once again cut off.
"You'll what?" Zarbon responded, "You are just a pitiful, insignificant Earth Princess who can't do a damn thing. But I'll make an offer for you. I'll let your parents go if you give yourself up to Frieza."
Bulma froze for a minute. She now had to choose between her parents lives and her own freedom. How could she decide make a decision like that? Bulma's eyes welled up in tears. She knew her choice.
"Alright Zarbon-" she was cut off once again.
"Go to hell Zarbon!" Vegeta yelled as he cut the transmission.
Goku and Chi Chi looked at one another and slowly backed away. They both knew how this would turn out.
Bulma stood there for a moment, dumbfounded. She quickly regained her composure.
"What in the hell were you thinking doing that!" Bulma screamed at the flame-haired prince.
Vegeta rolled his eyes, this princess was so naive.
"Your parents are already dead," he stated.
Bulma gasped. How could he say that! She couldn't believe it. No she wouldn't believe it! But somewhere in her heart, she knew his words were true.
Bulma collapsed and began sobbing uncontrollably. She clutched her heart and shut her eyes. Chi Chi ran over to her Princess and cradled her. Whispering comforting words into the Princess's ear. Goku looked at Vegeta, and Vegeta looked back at him. Vegeta uncrossed his arms and began to walk towards to the two women sitting on the floor. He carefully picked up Bulma and cradled her in his arms. He walked out of the room and headed towards the living quarters of the palace. Bulma unconsciously snuggled closer to his chest. Her sobbing lessened. Vegeta brought her to her room in the palace. He sat down on her bed with her still in his arms. She refused to let go of him.
"There was nothing you could do woman (a/n: hehe XD)," Vegeta softly spoke into her ear.
"No it was my fault I should have been there," Bulma replied between sobs.
"What would have happened if you were there? They still would have died and you would be in the hands of Frieza right now," Vegeta responded.
Bulma looked up at him. He was right.
"Do you honestly think your parents would want you in the clutches of that lizard freak?" Vegeta asked.
"No," Bulma answered.
"Good little wench," Vegeta patted the top of her head.
Bulma smacked his chest. 'Ass,' she thought.
Vegeta carefully placed her in her bed when she fell asleep. He looked at her sleeping form one more time before walking out of the room.
"Vegeta," Bulma groggily spoke.
Vegeta stopped in his tracks.
"What woman?" he asked.
"Can you stay with me tonight?" she asked.
Vegeta turned around an looked at her. She was sitting up in her bed.
"What?" he responded.
"I said-" she began.
"I know what you said woman," he replied.
"Please?" she asked nicely.
Vegeta took a deep breath. He hated himself for what he was about to do. He turned around and headed back to the bed and the blue-haired princess.
"Thank you," she spoke when he sat down on the bed.
Vegeta grunted and pulled a chair for him to sit on.
"No Vegeta wait," Bulma grabbed his shoulder.
"What is it now?" he asked, clearly annoyed.
Bulma immediately began to blush.
"Can you sleep with me?" she nervously asked.
Vegeta looked at her dumbfounded. No one has ever asked him that before. he grunted and got in the bed beside her.
"Vegeta one more thing," Bulma added.
"What!" he yelled.
"Can you hold me?" she mumbled.
"No," Vegeta answered.
Bulma frowned but understood. She managed to get him to do this much for her, she didn't want to push it.
Vegeta woke up the next morning. He looked around, not recognizing his surroundings. Then it dawned on him, the events last night. He felt something close to his chest. He looked down. He had his arms wrapped around the Earth princess, and her head resting on his shoulder. He immediately dislodged from her. His movements woke her up. He jumped out of the bed when he heard her shrill scream.
"What in the hell woman!" Vegeta yelled as he covered up his ears.
"What are you doing here?" she screamed.
"Would you quit that horrid screeching woman!" Vegeta demanded.
Bulma calmed her self. But she was still pissed.
"I'll ask you again. What are you doing here?" her voice was calm, but deadly.
Vegeta took a moment to think of what to say. How in the hell did he get caught in this mess again? Oh yes it was that annoying princess sitting on the bed.
"You asked me," Vegeta answered.
Bulma seemed to think for a moment, suddenly last night's events flooded her mind. She remembered everything. She felt her heart tighten. Her parents were gone and never coming back.
"Vegeta," her voice was but a whisper.
Vegeta sighed. "What?" he asked with his eyes closed.
"Do you mind leaving me alone for a while?" she asked quietly.
Vegeta opened his eyes and looked at her. Her blue orbs were glossy with unshed tears. He nodded his head and left the room.
Bulma brought her knees close to her chest. They were gone. She let the tears roll down her cheek. She missed them so much. How was she supposed to move ahead with her life without their guidance? Bulma thought back to last night. She felt so safe in Vegeta's arms last night. She couldn't understand the feeling, but she knew she like being around him.
