It was friday afternoon and Bulma was picking out a dress to wear to her date with Yamcha, they would go watch a movie. She was pretty nervous, the rest of the week she and Yamcha had talked much and she began to like him more and more. However, she kept doubting her feelings towards him, maybe it was only friendship? She was a bit frustrated. 'How can I be attracted to that jerk, Vegeta and not to that lovely guy, Yamcha?' That was all she could think about, she hadn't seen Vegeta much, but every time she saw him her heart began pounding as if it would explode. First she thought it was just simple anger towards him, but she knew she was fooling herself by thinking that.

Yamcha had picked up a jeans and a clean black button-up shirt he had tucked in his jeans. He thought it looked pretty silly, but Tien had said that girls like Bulma liked it, so he did it. While he was driving to Bulma's house, his nervousness only rose. What if he wasn't going to be able to say a word to her? He stopped in front of her house, and waited a few moment to gather some confidence to walk towards the door and ring the bell.

Bulma heard the bell ring and automatically raced of the stairs to open the door, he had been a few minutes late and she was afraid he had forgotten. There he stood in front of the door, his shirt tucked in his jeans. She smiled, she liked it. Yamcha noticed her smiling at his appearance and thanked Tien.

"You look nice." He said, nervously laughing. She looked awfully beautiful, he wasn't going to be able to take his eyes off of her.

"Thank you, you don't look so bad yourself." Bulma laughed as she took his hand as they walked to the car, to Yamcha's surprise. With pain in his heart he had released her hand and stepped in the car.

"So, which movie are we going to watch?" Bulma said, while smiling at him. He didn't look back because he was looking at the road, but he smiled too.

"You can pick whatever movie you want."

"Oh, I want to see Star Trek really bad. Can we see that one?" She asked, actually she had already seen the movie, but she didn't know any other movie that was released recently, except for a romantic one. However a romantic one was perfect for this date, something in her mind said her she didn't want to go to such a movie with Yamcha, which was really odd because normally she wouldn't care. 'Maybe I really only like him as a friend?' Bulma thought as she waited for his answer. Yamcha himself was pretty surprised too, he had expected her too choose a movie more romantic as Star Trek, but maybe she did wanted to see Star Trek really bad.

"Oh, yeah. Fine, it seems like a cool movie." He said still thinking what it meant for her to choose this movie. The rest of the drive they were silent, both thinking about the reason Bulma had chosen that movie.

Yamcha had paid for popcorn before they went to their seats. They had been talking about school when the lights dimmed and the movie began. Yamcha sighed as he turned to the movie with Bulma next to him. Like always, Yamcha laid his hand, palm to the ceiling, on the arm-rest as an offer for her to hold his hand. Bulma saw this, but didn't take his hand. She didn't know why, so she just went looking at the movie again. They could feel the tension, not all positive, between them. 'This is weird.' They both thought. 'Maybe we should only stay friends.' Bulma thought, but Yamcha felt total opposite of her. 'I am going to kiss her this evening, then she will know we click.' He thought to himself, smiling satisfied at the thought of their awkwardness going to come to an end.

The credits came on the screen and the light turned back on. Bulma and Yamcha both stood up immediately, ready to leave. Yamcha grabbed their jackets and they walked to the exit. Neither of them said something as they walked to Yamcha's car.

"Nice movie, huh?" Bulma asked as she and Yamcha were driving to her house.

"Yes, really nice." Yamcha said smiling, he was already preparing. "Especially the special effects, they did a really good job."

"Yes! I thought so too." Bulma said laughing, because that was exactly what Bulma had liked so much about the movie. The car stopped in front of her house. As they walked to her door silently, Yamcha was still preparing. 'How can I kiss her?' He thought. 'Maybe I should just ask, I don't think she is going to say no.' They stopped in front of her house.

"I had a good time, Yamcha." Bulma said just as she was going to open her door to go inside. Yamcha gently grabbed her arm to stop her from already going inside. She looked surprised at him, but stopped and turned to him with a questioning look on her face.

"I wanted to ask you something." Yamcha started, not really knowing how he would ask.

"Yes?" Bulma asked, still a bit surprised with what he was doing.

"Can I kiss you, Bulma." He said really fast, so he couldn't take it back.

"What?" Bulma asked in total shock, she did not know if she wanted to kiss Yamcha. Maybe, it would be good to know if there was more for them than only friends. However, she almost knew for sure there wasn't. But she wasn't going to be unfriendly to Yamcha, just one kiss for him.

"You know." Yamcha whispered, looking at the ground.

"Okay." Bulma said, she had made up her mind. She would kiss him one time, just to know.

"Really?" Yamcha asked, raising his head to look at her. She nodded as she stepped closer to him, never leaving eye contact. He took her face in one hand, leading it to his own. Bulma slowly closed her eyes, she knew what was going to come but she didn't know if she was going to like it. Yamcha closed his eyes too, just as he closed the space that was still between them. It was gently and slow, not unpleasant, Bulma thought as she felt her lips touch Yamcha's. It wasn't that long, a few second later Yamcha's lips left hers and he looked at her. Bulma had felt nothing, he could tell it by the look on her face. He didn't know what he had felt, not more then he usually felt when he kissed a girl. They stared at each other both knowing they weren't going to work out.

"Sorry." Bulma said as she stepped away from him, back to opening her door. He just stood there, he had wished they would be able to become more but it was obvious it wasn't going to work out. He was a bit disappointed, he really liked Bulma. He watched her close the door and walked back to his car.

Bulma let herself fall on her bed, she really needed to relax. Just then she had a great idea, she would invite ChiChi and 18 over to her for a sleepover which they hadn't done for ages. She rapidly picked up her phone and dialled ChiChi's number.

"Yes, Bulma?" ChiChi asked on the other side of the phone.

"ChiChi, I just had a great idea. Can you come for a sleepover tomorrow? I'm going to ask 18, too."

"Of course! It had been too long." ChiChi said, enthusiastic.

"Yes, I know. I have to tell you a lot. You know I am just back from my date with Yamcha, but I will tell you all about it tomorrow." She said, she really needed to tell her friends what happened. It had been a bit of a disappointment for her, and she had to get it from her chest. "I am now going to call 18!"

"Okay, see you tomorrow."

"Bye." Bulma said and after hanging up she directly called 18.

"Yes?" Said the monotone voice of 18, uninterested.

"18, it's Bulma." When 18 heard Bulma her uninterested state turned into interest.

"What are you calling for?" 18 said, much happier.

"Can you come over tomorrow, ChiChi is coming too."

"Yes, sure." 18 said, much much happier now. She was really looking forward to it.

"Okay, it's settled then. See you tomorrow!"

"See you." 18 said before Bulma ended the call. Now Bulma had to find a thing to do to let the time go faster until, so she decided to just go to bed. It was already 11 o'clock and she didn't know anything else to do.

ChiChi and Bulma went to the supermarket to get snacks and drinks for their sleepover. 18 would be able to join them at 7 o'clock, which was still more than two hours. They picked up some chips, a lot of chocolate and three bottles of ice-tea. ChiChi was a bit angry at Bulma because Bulma didn't want to tell her about her date until 18 was there.

"ChiChi, lighten up. Only two hours left." Bulma mocked ChiChi. The only response from ChiChi she got was a growl and a death glare, which was pretty amusing for Bulma. They went to the checkout to pay for their stuff. Behind the checkout was a pretty attractive guy who had noticed Bulma and ChiChi.

"So, having a party?" He asked, winking at the girls.

"Yes, kind off." Bulma said with a flirtatious smile, she was still single so every option was open. ChiChi looked a bit away from her friend, embarrassed.

"Can I come? I bet it will be fun." He asked, hoping to get invited by the girls. He looked at ChiChi, hoping she would allow him to come, he kind off liked the black haired girl. She was shy, yes, but she seemed really nice and she was one of the most beautiful girls he had ever seen.

"I'm sorry, only girls." Bulma said, noticing he was staring at ChiChi. "But you can always have ChiChi's phone number." The moment ChiChi heard this, she turned angrily to Bulma.

"What?" She asked Bulma, she was already mad at her but this was a bit too far. Bulma had known ChiChi would react like this, which was only in her advantage because she knew the boy would like it. The boy turned to ChiChi.

"You are ChiChi?" He asked with a nice smile on his lips, ChiChi was a bit taken back by his appearance.

"Um yes. You are?" 'I am able to talk to him!' She shouted inside, she wasn't able to talk to Goku but maybe this guy was better although she highly doubted it.

"I'm Jay, nice to meet you." The girls behind them on the line said something about hurrying up, and ChiChi was almost leaving but the Jay grabbed her arm. "So what about your number?" He asked before she could go away, hoping she would give him.

"Oh yeah, sure." She gave him his number before she and Bulma went back to Bulma's house. Bulma gave ChiChi a push on the shoulder as she proudly looked at ChiChi, who could only blush and be happy about what happened.

18 was stepping to the door of the Briefs' home, she couldn't stop smiling at the thought of a nice evening to talk to her friends what had been a really long time. She rang the bell and waited for someone to open. After a few minutes the door swung open and without seeing who it was she felt someone hug her. She hugged the person back, whoever it was. Bulma stopped hugging 18 and grabbed her arm to get her inside before shutting the door. Bulma was talking all about ChiChi and Jay's meeting when they walked upstairs. ChiChi heard his name and began cursing under her breath, but when Bulma and 18 walked into the room couldn't fight the smile that was spreading on her lips.

"So, what about this Jay guy?" 18 asked nicely, trying not to piss off ChiChi, who couldn't be mad at 18 for asking. ChiChi send a mad glare at Bulma before answering 18.

"Actually, I'm pretty happy. He seemed nice and I could take to him, which I can't do with Goku." She had to admit as she looked at her phone again. She knew Jay wasn't going to call her that day, but she couldn't stop hoping.

"I'm happy for you." 18 said as she sat down on Bulma's couch.

"And when are you going to get yourself a boyfriend, 18?" Bulma asked, sincerely interested.

"I don't know. Never probably." She admitted, with a bit of a sad look. Although she didn't like human interaction as much as the rest, she was a girl and liked to think of a boy who would like her. "There is no boy I can really stand. It's inevitable, I'm going to die alone." She sighed, this was the first time she had admitted she wanted a boyfriend to her friends, who looked shocked at her. Bulma was the first to repair and began plotting a way to find 18 a boyfriend.

"We'll get you one." Bulma assured 18. ChiChi nodded at Bulma's response and 18 smiled at them, happy that they were her friends. That she had let them in, which she normally didn't do.

They were watching a movie, when Bulma's phone rang. Bulma sighed and stood up with numb legs from sitting down all evening. "Who the hell could it be?" She mumbled as she looked at her phone. 'Goku?'

"Hello Goku?" She said, getting the attention of her friends as she said his name.

"Hello Bulma!" Said Goku with a cheerful tone in his voice. Bulma heard someone shout something in the background, followed with Goku's reply. "Shut up, Vegeta. I'm talking to Bulma."

Vegeta looked up surprised. Goku was calling Bulma. 'Maybe they were.. No, Goku liked that black haired woman.' Vegeta thought. After it was too late he thought back at what he had thought, he was concerned. Normally he didn't care for women, but for some reason he did when it was that woman.

"Yes, Goku?" Bulma asked after Goku had shouted back at Vegeta, she still didn't know why Goku was calling her.

"Oh, yes. I wanted to ask ChiChi's phone number." He said fast to he wouldn't be able to take his words back. Bulma raised her eyebrows and looked meaningful at ChiChi, who looked back with a questioning gaze.

"I will ask her if I can give her."

"Oh, you can call me back after you've called her." Goku said with a bit of a disappointed tone in his voice, he had wanted Bulma to give it to him without asking ChiChi. What is she said no?

"No, that is not necessary. ChiChi's here, I can ask her now. Hold on a second." She put her hand over the phone so Goku wouldn't hear them.

"He wants your number, ChiChi, should I give it?" She asked, while nodding her head 'yes', indicating she wanted ChiChi to say yes.

"Um, I guess. As friends it is normal." Bulma rolled her eyes as she heard the word friends. She took her hand from the phone and directed her to Goku again.

"Yes, you can." She said and heard a deep sigh on the other side of the phone.

After giving ChiChi's number, she plopped down on the couch next to 18 and they went back to watching their movie.

I want to thank the anonymous review. I was a bit stuck on the part about ChiChi and Goku but now I know what I can do, I'm going to add a new character: Suno. She will be a bit of the popular girl, I know Suno is not really like that in the series but I thought a character like this would be good.

Thank you!
