Hey guys! Happy birthday to me! LOL (No, really, is really my birthday today...)
Chapter 12: What's going on?
_July 10th
Dear diary,
I'm not even sure how to start this...
I was kidnapped. I was very sure that Vegeta was going to rescue me, but he didn't; it was Yamcha who came. And that's not all, He kissed me. He kissed me like the old Yamcha, the Yamcha with the wild hair and chubby cheeks... It was like going back to the time when we were happy...
I know his apology was cheesy and all, but the kiss... that was something else... Ug! I hate you Yamcha!
It's been almost 5 days since I came home... And I haven't seeing Vegeta once. He is avoiding me, I know. I'm avoiding him too. I don't know what to say to him, I'm not even sure if I should be mad...! It is just... Gosh! I really thought... I really wanted him to rescue me, why didn't he come for me...?
Also, Yamcha has stopped "bothering me" like he promise...
hear a knock at the door.
"Come in!"
"There you are, Bulma Dear!"
"What is it Mom?"
"Dinner is ready!"
-I'm not very hungry...
"It is Vegeta isn't it..."
"Mom! It's not Vegeta! I just had a traumatic experience... I need time for myself!"
"Sure, Dear, whatever is more comfortable for you to say, as long you stay away from that Yamcha... I never really liked him..." Now you say that...! "Anyways, Vegeta is coming to have dinner with us, and we'll looove to have dinner like a family again..."
"Who cares Mom! I don't wanna eat dinner!"
"Vegeta already knows I was coming to ask you for dinner, If you don't come Bulma Dear, it will look like you are purposely avoiding him, and when you avoid someone, it is because you care about that person, which in your case, will look like a sign of love...!" Mom says in a singing voice. " Aaah! Young love, so complicated and yet so simple..."
"OK! OK! I'm going!" I don't know how she does it, but Gosh! She's good at it!
I clean myself up, and I go to the dinning room. The first thing I notice is my Dad sitting in front of Mom. Check mate! The table only has 4 places. Then, I notice Vegeta looking right at me... My heart feels heavy, and I feel the urge to run away...
"Bulma sweetheart, come, sit with us?" Daddy asks in his sweet voice.
I drag my self to the table, and I sit in front of Vegeta. The tension between us is very uncomfortable.
"So how hard are you training now Vegeta?" Mom asks, clueless as always.
Vegeta keeps eating, he doesn't answers.
"He is training 440 times Earth gravity, Dear."
"Like I have told the guys, I think what you do is admirable! In my day, a man who showed that much dedication to anything was husband material, a girl must be crazy to let a guy like you get away, don't you agree Bulma?" Mom Says in his clueless tone. Again.
I almost spit my lunch out on Vegeta's face.
"Let's enjoy our meal..."00 Says Dad, trying to change the theme.
Gosh! Can Mom ever say something rational?
We stay in an uncomfortable silence for the rest of the meal, Vegeta and I don't say a word, we don't even look at each other...
"I know what will cheer you two up! Let's go on a trip!" Mom says.
"We could go to the island we bought last year in the south, Bulma hasn't being there yet..." Dad replies.
"It's settled!" Says Mom enthusiastic.
"I'm not going!" I say at the same time with Vegeta, and we give a quick look to each other.
"You cannot stay by your self Bulma Dear, we don't want you to get kidnapped again. And you Vegeta... You have to come because nobody will be here to cook your meals, Chloe and Sophie are coming with us, and no one is going to lend you money either..."
"And I'm not gonna repair the artifacts you destroy today and the gravity room until I'm back from the trip... "Dad says.
"I'll destroy this place..."
"You won't have a place to train if you do that." Says Dad. Vegeta grunts.
"So, you 2 thought about this before..." I say suspiciously.
"Yup! We made arrangements to leave tomorrow at noon." Dad replies.
"Daddy, I don't wanna go..." I whine to him.
"Oooh! We need to go clothing shopping and find a cute bikini for you, Bulma, you just can't go with the old things you have..."
"Mom! My clothes are just fine!"
"And you Vegeta, you need a swim suit too, we can't let you swim naked, can we Bulma...?"
"Mom! Let me out of this!" I beg.
"Aaaah! In my times young couples would just go by their instincts and just swim with their natural swim suit... But you two are not aloud to do that! It's completely inappropriate! … Oh my! What am I saying!"
"YEAH MOM! WHAT THE HECK!"
"HAVE YOU LOST YOUR SHAME, OLD WOMAN?"
Ug! It's like Mom enjoys making me feel embarrassed! I give a quick look to Vegeta... It's nice not to be the only one blushing...
"Aaaah! I'm going now to buy the swim suits, Bulma Dear, It's OK if you want to stay here with your boyfriend, It's probably the best... You don't have the same good taste of clothing like your Mom..."
"Mom!" I whine.
"If you are going to stay, you need to behave like the good girl I raised, OK?"
How can she say all those stupid things with a smile? Does she ever realizes what she says?
"I'm going to take a bath and then head to bed... Yawn! I had a very long day in the lab. Good night you two, and don't do anything I wouldn't do..."
"You too Daddy...?" Betrayal!
In less than a minute I'm all by myself with Vegeta. He has his arms cross and he is looking to the side, probably he is too upset to do anything.
I get up from the table.
"Bulma... I turn to look at him."
"You are the last person I wanna talk right now Vegeta, in fact you are the last person I wanna be around, so do me a favor and stay out of my way on this trip!"
He looks at me like saying Where the heck is this coming from?.
"Isn't that what you have always wanted? Me, staying out of you way?" Ug! I swear he does that clue less face on purpose!
And without waiting for an answer, I leave the room.
As I go up the stairs I realize that he called me by my name for the first time...
OK guys. I'm gonna do this deal just for being my birthday.
if I have 10 reviews I'll upload the next chapter tomorrow...
And this is the thing, next chap. It's about...
I'm not gonna ruin the surprise for you guys, so lets say that something that we've being wanting to happen IT'S going to happen!
It's up to you now! O.~
