Bulma woke up and went to get out of bed, but when she tried to move she felt something strong holding her in place, and then gently, subconsciously squeeze her. She slowly rolled around till she was facing her restraint. "Vegeta, you awake, I need to get up now" Bulma whispered into his ear.

"Mmmmm… sleep woman" Vegeta moaned not loosening his grip on Bulma.

"Vegeta seriously we need to get up, otherwise we will be late" Bulma urged.

"For what" Vegeta asked barley stifling a yawn, still refusing to loosen his grip around Bulma.

"To go to the beach"

"We're at the beach"

"No, we're going out for the day with the guys" Bulma correct.

"You go, I'll catch up later" Vegeta moaned before closing his eyes and trying to fall asleep again.

"Vegeta that's my point I can't move an inch with you holding me in place like this" Bulma whispered into his ear. Vegeta looked went to ask what she was talking about before realizing he was holding her very close to him. He instantly released her and turned away, silently reprimanding himself for acting so weak.

"What's the matter Veggy" Bulma asked rolling over and hugging him tightly sensing his embarrassment. He just grunted in response hoping she would leave if he continued to ignore her long enough.

"Are you embarrassed Veggy" Bulma pushed.

"Don't call me that"

"What"

"Veggy"

"I like it-"

"Well I don't" Vegeta interrupted.

"Whatever, you know you shouldn't be embarrassed just because you showed me a little affection" Bulma cooed.

"I'm not embarrassed" Vegeta said stoically before standing to get ready to go to the beach, clearly Bulma wasn't going to allow his to sleep anymore.

"Where are you going?" Bulma called.

"To take a shower" Vegeta curtly replied.

Bulma jumped up after him and grabbed his arm "How about I join you" Vegeta froze in place due to her boldness, he certainly wouldn't mind, but… "What, you afraid we will get caught… because I think that just make it more exciting" Bulma wisped seductively into his ear, before kissing Vegeta gently on the lips satisfied with his reaction.

She then entered the bathroom locked the door behind her and started the showed "I'll take my shower first then Vegeta" she called as she removed her cloths, laughing at his reaction to her 'offer'. She couldn't help but think it strange, considering Vegeta's reputation with women. Most women he would have slept with on the first date- if it got to a 1st date- but for some reason he was holding back with Bulma.

She wondered why he's holding himself, at first she thought it might be he wasn't attracted to her, but a partially heavy make out session in which she could feel his 'liking' of her, near her 'liking' of him made her think it must be something else. She would have to ask him in private at some point.

After she exited the shower she pulled a towel around her and left the bathroom, to be greeted by a very irate Vegeta. As she left the doorway Vegeta instantly pushed pass her and started his shower, she smirked at his behaviour. She knew she was driving him crazy.

She went to the kitchen for breakfast; she could already smell pancakes as soon as she left her room. She always loved Chis pancakes with lemon and sugar, her mouth watered at the mere thought of it.

"Good morning so Bulma, are you feeling better now" Chi inquired, inspecting Bulma for any signs that she was still ill.

Bulma stared at her confused; she didn't know what she was talking about, then it hit her. Vegeta said she was ill and he was taking care of her. "Um, yer I feel great" Bulma said with a big smile.

"Really so Vegeta nursed you back to health then" Chi asked sceptically, finding the idea of Vegeta looking after anyone baffling.

"Oh-yer he took care of me" Bulma confirmed.

"I bet he 'took care of you'" Maron said with a knowing smile and wink whilst Chi was making more pancakes.

Bulma instantly panicked unsure if Maron was joking or if she really knew something "Yer" she meekly relied before starting to eat the pancakes Chi made for her with her head down.

"Eat up Bulma, it's important to eat a lot when trig to get better" Chi instructed, as Vegeta entered the room. "Good morning Vegeta" Chi cheerfully greeted.

"Hn"

"Oh I see what you mean Bulma, he's so naturally sweet and caring like a giant teddy bear" Chi complemented sarcastically. Vegeta show Bulma a confused and slightly nervous look, before she explained to him to stop him having little outburst.

"I was just telling the girls about your ministrations last night Vegeta" Bulma explained happily.

"I'm sure you were, better keep quiet thought or everyone will be asking for my 'ministrations'" Vegeta whispered into her ear taking the seat next to her and immediately grabbing a large stack of pancakes from the centre of the table.

Bulma felt a slight blush grace her cheeks and covered her face with her hands hoping on one would see. Everyone saw.
