Chapter 2: First impression
Bulma sighed heavily, today was the day she starts high school, senior year at West City High. 'Why did I have to agree to this' thought Bulma as she stared at the grinning faces of her adoptive parents. Her body guard was also there to see her off on her first day, but was behind them staring through his black tinted glasses, nodding his head to her. He was always a quiet guy.
"Sweetie I packed your favourite food for lunch, I also put a first aid kit, bottles of water, hydration is important, and I put some money in there just in case. Don't worry I put them all in capsules so I could fit it all in your backpack…"
"I upgraded the motorbike a little, it can now go 300 miles per hour, I know it's ridiculous but you never know. You're the only that has one of these beauties. It has a GPS built inside it, it also has… "
Bulma couldn't catch a word they were saying as they spoke over the top of each other. So she just nodded and agreed with every word that came out of their mouths. Once they said to hurry along Bulma put her helmet on and hopped on her bike, with her backpack. She heard the engine roar to life as she turned the key to ignition she waved back at the Briefs and Nappa, driving off the property of Capsule Corporation.
She sped through the slow traffic of west city. To her surprise it felt good to be out of the house, never has she been alone before she was always accompanied by her body guard or Dr Briefs and his wife. She took side way glances at the buildings, parks and the citizens as she drove towards the high school.
'Turn left at Torn St. And you will arrive at your destination'
When she turned the corner first thing she saw was a huge metal gate that read 'West City High' in big bold letters. Slowing driving in front of the gate it opened allowing her to enter. Taking in her surroundings of the school she couldn't help but feel a little nervous as all the students just stared at her and whispered amongst each other. 'What the fuck is all their problem' thought Bulma.
She parked her motor bike in the schools parking lot and hopped off it, turning the engine off. Unclipping her bike helmet, she swayed her long cerulean hair from side to side in hopes that it is somewhat decent after where her helmet. When she turned around to go into the building she smacked into what seemed like a brick wall.
"Wow sweet ride. I have never seen one of these babies around before" the guy whistled loudly while examining her bike.
Bulma looked at him, frowning. He had dark black hair that went in different directions, he had a red football jersey on, which had the schools logo on it, and wore blue jeans and sneakers.
"Man you must be rich to afford this. Anyways, I'm Kakarott, but everyone calls me Goku" he stretched his hand out for her to shake, she hesitated.
"Hey…. I don't bite" he smiled.
'Oh come on. It's just a hand shake Bulma' she took his hand in hers and shook it. She exhaled not realising she was holding her breath "Names Bulma"
"Nice to meet you Bulma. I haven't seen you around here before, you must be new?" he tilted his head to the side lost in her blue ocean like eyes.
She felt uncomfortable "How did you figure that out? Do I wear some sort of sign on my forehead?" frowned Bulma.
"Well I'm pretty popular here I know everyone in this school" he gave her an all teeth smile.
"Why are you talking to the 'weird' new kid if you're so popular then?" snapped Bulma.
Goku frowned "I don't think you're weird at all. I just wanted to say hey. That's what makes me popular I guess, I am not a bully if that's what you think got me popular in the first place. I'm an outgoing kind of guy. If I have offended you in any way, I'm very sorry, Bulma" he was about to leave to go search for his friends when he felt small hands on his shoulder.
"Hey… Look I'm sorry. I had a rough week. I can get a little cranky at times I'm sorry" never has Bulma spoken to another person her own age. It's all very new to the blue haired teen.
Goku Smiled brightly at her "Hey no worries. People have their days" he laughed "You know what why don't you come with me. I can introduce you to my friends, don't worry they are really cool and nice. Well except for one of them he can be a cranky guy sometimes, hey you two may have some things in common"
Bulma raised one of her perfectly shaped eyebrows at his assumption.
"Hey look there's some of them now" he grabbed her hand and waved at his friends. She tensed up immediately. Goku was unaware of this as he dragged her away from her bike, with her helmet still in her other hand.
"Sup guys. I want you to meet Bulma; Bulma this is Chi Chi, Jane and Krillen"
"Call me 18 I hate the name Jane" said the blonde glaring at Goku.
"Nice to meet you Bulma" said the short bald guy.
"What do you think you're doing Goku" yelled Chi Chi, she sized Bulma up and glared at her hand holding onto Goku's. Bulma catching onto the problem, quickly ripped her hand out of Goku's and backed away from the girl, not wanting to start anything 'Great my first day of school and I'm already causing trouble. I knew this was a bad idea' thought Bulma.
Goku stepped in between Chi Chi and Bulma "Whoa, Chi Chi. She's new here. I bumped into her…. And well I thought I could introduce her to you guys" explained Goku.
"Argh, fine. But I'll warn you though little missy stay away from my Goku" she yelled in Bulma's face.
Bulma watched the girl storm off into the building.
Goku sighed he didn't bother chasing after his girlfriend. It would only make matters worse "Don't worry about her. She's been really angry lately, I've tried asking her what's wrong but I never get any answers. Maybe she's on her lady friend again this month?"
"Argh Goku that's gross. That's even worse than saying period" snapped 18.
"Hey, it's gross when guys have to say period" said Krillen, defending Goku from his girlfriend, which was a big mistake.
"Oh really" she smacked him on the back of his head, grabbed his ear and dragged him in the other direction creating some distance from Bulma and Goku. All you could hear was him pleading for her to let go.
"Oh man. That was the worst first impression. I promise they are not like this all the time. I guess they are moody because summer vacation is over" Goku shrugged his shoulders.
"Well how about I give you a quick tour of the school and then I can take you to the student office to get your schedule?" Goku looked at her and waited for her to respond.
Bulma stared at him 'this guy doesn't give up does he, I might as well since I have no idea where anything is' she simply nodded her head.
"Great well let's start with outside since we are out here" said Goku as they began walking towards the large oval.
Inside school building…
"And this is the cafeteria, where we come to have our lunch and hang with friends and all that good stuff" they had been roaming around the school, what felt like hours to Bulma as she got bored at every turn. Suddenly she straightened her posture as she heard someone scream out to Goku.
"Kakarott!" the guy stomped towards Goku and grabbed him by the hem of his jacket, completely unaware of Bulma's presence.
"Urhm, hey Vegeta. How are you this morning?" laughed Goku nervously.
"Cut the crap Kakarott. Where the hell were you this morning? I waited for 2 hours for your idiotic ass to pick me up from my place at 6am and not any later" yelled Vegeta.
"Well I… was" Vegeta cut him off.
"And because you didn't come get me, my damn father had to drop me off before he got to the office this morning. I nearly ripped off my ears from his complaining all the way here. Do you know how much I…" before he could finish arguing with Goku, he felt a pair of eyes staring at him from behind. With curiosity he turned to see whom dared stand there enjoying the show. 'If the kid had any brains he would know that staring at me is fucking rude' as he turned his head, there stood a beautiful girl. She wore a plain white shirt, with a black leather jacket over the top and dark blue jeans that hugged her shapely long legs, they were ripped at the knees. To his surprise she was wearing sneakers, most of the girls here wore heels. She had long shiny blue hair that touched her slim waist, her curves as Vegeta checked her out was weakening to the knees. He finally rested his onyx eyes on her blue ones. Goku interrupted his thoughts.
"Oh Vegeta that's Bulma she just started today" explained Goku. He laughed to himself as he watched Vegeta gawk at Bulma, he's never seen Vegeta stunned before especially in front of a girl.
"I…am…Urhm" Vegeta let go of Goku and stuttered as he couldn't take his eyes off of her. He then noticed a slight frown forming between her eyes.
0"Mmm Goku ill… Urhm I'll see you around maybe. I'm going to go to the student office to get my schedule. And thanks for showing me around" with that Bulma went running down the corridor towards the student office. Vegeta tilted his head to the side staring at her ass.
"Man Vegeta you should've seen the look on your face when you saw her" Goku laughed bending over, resting his hands one his knees as his laughter started hurting his stomach "I'm…. I… am… am" Goku mimicked him as he continued laughing.
Vegeta shook his head and growled "FUCK YOU, YOU OVER GROWN BRAT!" he stormed off heading to his first class, with Goku following him behind. They were always put in the same classes every year.
Vegeta's mind was somewhere else as he walked down the hall. He couldn't stop thinking about the blue haired girl. 'I can't believe I was actually fucking nervous. And Kakarott out of all people was the one to witness it. Damn her'
Student office…
"Here you go dear. Your schedule, map of the school and the combination and number of your locker. Now better hurry hon, the bell rang 10 minutes ago"
Bulma thanked the old lady and grabbed her helmet that was on the counter. She walked down the hall and stood in front of the science room. She was told that Dr Briefs sorted her classes out. Of course he would have chosen science and engineering, she did admit that she loved doing them, but never knew she could actually do them. She sighed and then knocked on the door.
"You're late dear" said the teacher, opening the door wide.
"I'm sorry. I'm new" mumbled Bulma.
"Well that's alright. Just don't make it a habit ok" he smiled, stepping to the side to let her in the classroom. She avoided eye contact with the other students.
"Now what is your name so I can mark you here?" he asked.
"It's Urhm Bulma…" she hesitated to say her last name "Briefs" whispering it softly.
"I can't hear you dear"
"It's Bulma Briefs" she ignored the reaction it had on everyone.
"Briefs? Daughter of the Dr Briefs? Owner and creator of Capsule Corporation?"
Bulma rolled her eyes and nodded.
"Wow I had no idea he had a child"
It was true no one knew about the Briefs having a child, well adopting one. She rarely showed her face in the public eye, for numerous reasons. One being she hated attention, it's why she tried not to get in trouble.
"What an honor to have you in my class dear. Now go and take a seat and we will begin the lesson"
Bulma swallowed the lump in her throat, facing the entire class. Never has she seen so many eyes on her at once, it made her nervous, yet angry. Scanning the room for a spare seat she noticed Goku sitting at the back smiling at her. On his right side sat the guy she met earlier in the hall, who had hair that stood up like a flame, was bickering with a girl who was sitting next to him. 'Hmm he has a girlfriend and he had the audacity to perv on me. Disgusting' thought Bulma. She walked slowly towards the spare seat on Goku's left, she sighed.
"Aww man I didn't know you were the daughter of the famous Dr Briefs" said Goku.
"It must have slipped my mind" she'll never get used to being called the daughter of the Briefs.
"My father works for yours. Ain't that cool"
Bulma ignored him, as she listened to the teacher explain chemical reactions. She jot down some notes in her book and noticed that no one was really listening to the teacher. Goku was snoring next to her, a group of girls were giggling looking at their phones, and some boys were throwing paper balls around the classroom. She shook her head and continued to focus on the science lesson.
Shifting uncomfortably in her seat she felt as though someone was watching her, it had shivers going up her spine. Looking up from her book and past Goku's sleeping form, those onyx eyes were watching her intensely, again.
She couldn't place the exact word of the feeling she was experiencing yet again when looking into his onyx orbs. That was why she fled when she met him in the hall. She couldn't understand what it was about him that made her feel… good. She watched the corner of his mouth turn into a small smirk. She could tell right away he was a ladies man, with a face like his she was sure he had more than one girl at his feet. Behind him she saw the girl he was arguing with, she was wearing too much makeup on her face you could hardly tell if she was a real person or not. She was glaring holes in Bulma face. 'Oh no not another girl' thought Bulma.
Vegeta noticed that he didn't have her full attention anymore as he watched her innocent eyes stare behind him, no doubt Kira, his girlfriend was secretly planning Bulma's death with her beady little eyes. He frowned, annoyed she ruined his moment. For weeks he was trying to break up with her. He had enough of her nagging him all the time. The only reason he dated her was because of his father, his intention was to have them date in hopes that it could get him in her father's good book, which hasn't happened for years that he has worked for her father. Vegeta despises him for dragging him into it. No matter how many times he slept with so many girls, she still stayed with him, it was insane.
"Vegeta don't you dare go after her. I saw the way you looked at the slut. You're with me. If you don't make me happy I'll make sure my daddy finds out" she whispered angrily.
"Like I care you spoilt brat" he hissed. 'She can talk. She looks like a whore in her getup. Mini skirt, high heels, crop top. Disgusting' thought Vegeta.
"How dare you…"
"Kira Arata. Keep your voice down during class. Or do I have to move you to the front like a junior"
The class started snickering including Bulma. It was the first time she truly giggled. She glanced at Vegeta one last time, he was smirking at her. Bulma blushed.
"That's it!" screamed Kira. She launched at Bulma, ready to punch her.
Bulma saw her fist in slow motion flying toward her face. She dodged it and swiftly put her in a head lock. Being careful not to snap the girl's neck. The entire classroom was quiet as they witnessed how quickly Bulma moved. She looked around the room, all eyes on her once again. Even Goku's 'when had he awaken?'
"Kira, I want you to march your way to the principal's office immediately. In fact I'll take you myself" spoke the teacher, breaking the silence.
Bulma released her but still stood her ground in case the girl hit her by surprise.
"What! She started it. Just because she's a Briefs doesn't mean she is to be treated like royalty. And you" she pointed her sharp acrylic nail in Bulma's face "How dare you put your hands on me"
Bulma glared "I was simply defending myself"
"Kira" warned the teacher.
Before she followed the teacher out she whispered to Bulma "I'll teach you not to mess with me, Briefs"
Bulma watched them leave the classroom 'My first day and already I have made an enemy. Fuck this'
