Later, the boys left, leaving the girls alone. "Bulma are you sure we will be fine?"

"Yes Chi." Bulma didn't look up from her sketch book. "Besides Goku left his truck."

"But Launch and I can't drive a standard."

18 laughed. "We can don't worry."

Chi-Chi calmed down and started frying the fish. "You know what? This is my first 4th of July without fireworks. Actually this is my first camping trip without being in a camp ground." 18 nodded from her magazine and Bulma smiled as she drew.


When the fish were close to being done the boys came back. Everyone ate and talked about the next year. Bulma was still drawing when 18 came up and took it away from her. She looked down and saw a drawing of Chi-Chi yelling. "This is good." She flipped the page and saw a picture of the four boys fishing from earlier. "I want a copy." She flipped the page again and saw a picture of herself asleep in the bed of Vegeta's truck and laughed.

"Thanks."

"You should consider doing this for a living." Flipping through more pages.

"No, artists don't make much. Besides I already have my heart set on taking over my dad's part of the company some day. Now can I have it back." Bulma reached for it.

"Why?" 18 pulled it back.

"Fine. You can looked, just don't look at the pictures in the front."

"Oh." 18 grinned and flipped to the front, her smile frowned and looked up at Bulma in shock. "He posed for you?"
Bulma blushed. "No I drew them when he was asleep. I took some pictures too."

"Wow."

"The way the light hit him that morning and the shine of the sweat on his body, I couldn't help it." Bulma smiled as a shocked 18 handed the book back to her.

"It's a good thing you develop your own pictures." She got up and walked away.


"Bulma! 18! The boys are here!" Mrs. Briefs yelled up the stairs. A few seconds later Bulma and 18 came down. 18 in her short sleeveless white dress, her hair down, light makeup and white high heels and Bulma in her red dress that Vegeta got her, with her hair in a messy bun, light makeup and red high heels.

"Isn't Launch's day?" Krillin asked them when they reached the bottom.

"Yeah why, Kril?" 18 asked giving him a quick kiss.

"Because, you two are going to out shine her."

18 and Bulma looked at each other and smiled. "Believe us, Launch looks amazing in her dress. Now let's get going." 18 pulled Krillin out the door, followed by Bulma and Vegeta.

"Mom, you are meeting us there right?"

"Yes, dear."

"Ok." Bulma walked out the door.

"I thought we were taking Bulma's car!" 18 yelled looking at Vegeta and Krillin.

"No, now get in." Vegeta said making his way over to the drive door.

"How the hell am I supposed to get in your fucking truck in this dress Veg-head!"

"Don't worry babe, I'll help you in." Krillin winked.

"Krillin quit being perverted!"

"I'm not." He helped 18 into the back seat.

Bulma giggled and looked at Vegeta. "Wanna help me big boy?"

"No, you got in here before with that dress on."

"Jerk." Bulma rolled her eyes and got in.


They arrived at the church and walked in. "What side should we sit on?" Krillin asked looking at all the people that were already there.

"How about we sit on Launch's side and you two sit on Tien's side." 18 said looking at Bulma and Vegeta. Vegeta shrugged his shoulders and went and sat down. "B, let's go see Launch and Chi."

"Ok." Bulma turned to Vegeta. "Be right back."
"Whatever." Vegeta slumped down in his spot and closed his eyes.


"Chi, are you ok? It has never taken you this long to do my hair." Launch looked concerned at her pregnant best friend.

"I'm fine. Gohan is just kicking me really hard."

"There's the bride!" Bulma announced coming into the dressing room, she looked around and was confused. "Launch, why aren't you ready?"
"Gohan is really hurting Chi today, so its taking her a little longer."

Bulma looked at Chi-Chi and smiled. "Chi, why don't you sit down. 18 and I will take over from here. You need your rest."

"No, its ok Bul...ma." Chi-Chi grabbed her side and sat down. "Ok, only for a few minutes."

"Good mama." Bulma looked at 18 and nodded and 18 smiled. They went to work right away. After Launch had her makeup and hair done she slide into her dress.

"There's my beautiful baby!" The four girls turned to see Debbie, Launch's mom and Bulma's mom come walking in. "Oh, Launch, how I wish your father could see this." She came up and hugged her.

"Its ok mom. I know he is watching over us right now." Launch pulled back and started to cry with her mom. Pretty soon the whole room was in tears, minus Bulma and 18 who wanted to escape.

"Now, now, no more crying. Our makeup will run." Debbie smiled at her daughter. "Grandpa is ready, you ready to start?"

Launch took one last look in the mirror and turned to everyone with a large smile. "Let's get me married!"


Bulma and 18 returned to their boyfriends. Bulma had to wake up Vegeta, who was snoring and making Tien's family mad. Mrs. Briefs was sitting in the front row on Launch's side with Dr. Briefs and Launch's grandma. Chiaotzu, Tien's little brother, walked Debbie down to her seat and it began. Everyone stood when Launch and her grandpa came walking in. Bulma turned and looked at Tien who was smiling like a foul. When her grandpa handed her over to Tien everyone sat back down.

"This is boring." Vegeta leaned into Bulma's ear.

"Be good."

"SHHH!" Tien's grandma glared at the two of them.

Vegeta looked Bulma up and down. "That dress gives me better ideas on what to do right now."

"Vegeta, stop we are in a church and you're about to get us kicked out."

"SHHH!" Tien's grandma glared again.

"By the power invested in me, by the city of West City I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride." After they kissed. "Ladys, Gentlemen, friends and family. I am happy to pronounce Mr. & Mrs. Tien Shenhan."

The reception came and everyone was having a good time. It came time for the best man and maid of honor speeches. Chi-Chi stood up to give her's. It was about their friendship and how they were like sisters and how Launch has always been there for her. She was almost done when she froze and looked down. Her face went pale and she looked up at everyone. "My water just broke."

Time stopped, the reception stopped. Goku rushed Chi-Chi off to the hospital with everyone else following. Launch quickly changed out of her dress, because she was going to be in the delivery room.

Everyone else was sitting in the waiting room. Bulma and 18 were reading magazines, Vegeta was asleep and Krillin and Tien were trying to block out Chi-Chi's screams and "I'm sorry to ruin your day Launch."

Flipping a page. "Leave it to Chi-Chi to scream one second and apologize the next."

Bulma giggled and looked over at 18 who was being serious. "Totally. I'm sure Launch will be the same way."

Tien gave the girls a pale look. "You have no idea what her temper is like."

After 15 minutes of silence Launch came walking out. "Gohan is here." She smiled and went and hugged her new husband. Everyone, minus Vegeta, who was still asleep, turned their attention to the nursery windows and saw Goku come walking in holding Gohan, with a big grin on his face and a red mark on his cheek. They all looked back at Launch with puzzled looks. "Chi, slapped him."


The next week came fast. Sunday night Bulma was laying awake in her nearly empty room. After an hour of tossing and turning she slipped on a robe and crawled down the side of the house and took off in her car to Vegeta's house. She came pulling up quietly, seeing no lights were on. She got out and made her way to the ladder next to Vegeta's room. (A.N. She's done it a few times.)


Vegeta was laying awake in his packed room, when he heard light knocking on his window and knew exactly who it was. He got up and went to open his window to see Bulma smiling up at him. "I couldn't sleep."

"Come on in." He walked back to his bed and laid down.

"Thanks." Bulma crawled in and shut the window. She looked around his room. "It looks so different."

"Yeah. Everything except a few cloths and the bed are ready to go."

"I wish you would use capsules."

"Well. It's not very often that my old man offers to pay for something so I'm taking advantage of it."

"When do you leave?"

"Thursday."

She walked over to the bed and took off her robe, revealing her pajamas, or lack there of. She crawled into bed with him and moved close to him.

"Everything will be fine." Vegeta said running his fingers through her hair.

"How do you know?" She said drawing circles on his bare chest.

"I don't." He moved and made her look at him. "There is something else you wanted to talk about isn't there?" She nodded. "What?"

"I don't want you to come to the airport tomorrow." Vegeta glared at her. "Not because I don't want to say good-bye. But if I see you there I won't want to get on the plane." She leaned in and kissed him. "I thought we could say our good-byes tonight."

Vegeta's eyebrow shot up. "What kind of good-bye?"

Bulma giggled and climbed on top of him, leaned down and nibbled on his ear, which always drove him crazy. "The kind that will blow your fucking mind and you will never forget." She began her assault on his neck making him groan.

"I think I'll like that." He started to pull her top up, when she stopped him.

Shaking a finger a him. "Bad boy, I'm the one in control right now." She grabbed her shirt and lifted it over her head and shaking her hair as it came off, making her breasts bounce in his face. She giggled when she felt something poke against her inner leg. She slowly moved down his chest kissing her way to the top of his boxers. Slowly, teasingly removing them. She quickly found herself under Vegeta. She giggled again when he lightly kissed his way down to her underwear and not so gently ripped them off, causing her to moan.

He came back up to her ear, while entering her. "This will be a night you will never forget."


The next day came too soon. Bulma got up and looked over a Vegeta who also woke up. She kissed him. "I love you."

"Me too." He winked.

She giggled and grabbed her robe. "I'll call you as soon as I land."

Vegeta nodded and she was gone.


Later at the airport, everyone was there; Dr. Gero, 17, 19, Dr. Briefs, Mrs. Briefs, Launch, Tien, Chi-Chi, Gohan and Goku. To see Krillin, 18 and Bulma off. Bulma gave everyone minus 17 a hug good-bye and went through the terminal to board the plane. Watching the plane take off Mrs. Briefs, Launch and Chi-Chi all started to cry. Mrs. Briefs saw a tissue appear before her and she grabbed it. She smiled and looked at the person. "Thank you." Looking back at the plane. "I knew you couldn't stay away." Vegeta just nodded.
