Ch.3
Vegeta stayed there in suspended animation for what he felt to be an eternity.
He was ready to kill those unsuspecting bakas, but something deep down inside
of him, refused to throw that ki ball. ~What the hell is the matter with me?!
These human bakas mean nothing to me! Why can't I do it?!~ He decided that
it was because the woman had done him a favour and all favours done unto him,
he always returned. Well, most of the time anyway. Not because he was
getting soft.
He diminished the killer ki ball and was about to head back to his room when he
felt it. It was HER ki. She had seen him. ~Oh Kuso...~
Bulma had never felt so relived in her entire life as she saw the ball of energy
disperse from his hand. She felt a smile creep across her face as she realized that
he hadn't had it in him to kill them. That would hardly seem like such a
wonderful thing to rejoice in, but when it came to Vegeta, him not being able to
kill you was a VERY good thing.
She suddenly tensed as she saw him fly towards her. ~Oh no! He must of
sensed me! Now what?! Well I'm not going to hide, that's for sure!~
She shakily got to her feet and stared defiantly at him. He approached her
cautiously and somewhat sheepishly with an unreadable expression on his face.
Once he was in front of her he stared at her for a moment and then landed on
her balcony, with her glaring all the time. They just stood there for a few
minutes and Bulma found it in her to say something. "What the hell did you
think you were doing?" She didn't yell it, and it didn't come out with the amount
of scorn that she was going for.
He didn't say anything, he just looked towards the sky and pointed.
She followed to where he directed and watched as well. "You see that empty
spot there, next to the two bright stars?" She nodded to indicate that she
understood. "That spot used to have a planet there. But I destroyed it on my
way here..."
Bulma looked back him, trying to figure out what he was trying to get at. He
didn't look at her, he only continued to look at where the ill fated planet had
been. "They told me that I was a hero for rescuing them from years of a tyrants
rule." His eyes seemed to take on a different gleam, one almost like regret. "As
soon as Nappa and myself were off the planet, I blew it up. I destroyed an
entire planet that said that they would remember me as their greatest hero....
without giving it a second thought. But.... I...I couldn't kill you and your family."
He stopped then, his eyes diverted to the ground. Bulma looked at him and
finally understood what he meant. She felt something tingle at her heart strings
and she moved closer to him. "I understand, Vegeta. And I know that this is all
new to you but..."
"But nothing woman! I am a Saiyajin warrior! The Prince of Saiyajin at that! I
can't be having these 'sentimental' feelings! They're a weakness! I would be a
laughing stock on Vegeta-sei!" He snarled at her. He got up to leave and then
turned towards her again. "You and your family are to stay away from me.
Understand?" He then proceeded to fly off to his room.
Bulma was a bit shocked, to say the least, and the tone that he had used to tell
her to stay away from him...it sent chills up her spine. ~Why are you like this,
Vegeta? You don't have to be alone...~ It was then that she ultimately decided
that it was her job to make him see that. She couldn't explain it, but it was like
some strange force was drawing her towards the arrogant prince, and that the
bit of interest that she had had for him before, was becoming a deep desire. One
that needed fulfilment. NOW.
~You'd better watch out Veggie-chan, cuz' Bulma's comin' after you...~
The next morning...
Vegeta lazily got out of bed and scuffled towards the bathroom for a shower.
His thoughts wandered back to the night before and he cursed himself for
letting the woman see him. ~Damn woman seems to be sneaking around
everywhere. Always in mine and everybody else's business...~
He rounded the corner and heard the sound of high-pitched giggling coming
from the woman's room. "Oh you just wouldn't believe it! He's
GORGEOUS!! I'm serious!.....No, he's not from around here.....Well, you
know how Goku's a Saiyajin right? Well he's one too!....Yes, I'm serious! And
get this, he's the Saiyajin Prince!"
Vegeta could here the screaming on the other end of the line after that comment
all the way out in the hall. He merely rolled his eyes and mumbled something
about "stupid women" and proceeded to the bathroom for his shower.
He entered the bathroom and shut the door behind him, not realizing that the
door DID NOT lock on it's own like the ones he was used to.
He turned on the shower and adjusted it to his desired temperature. Once he
got it right, he stepped out of his shorts and steeped into the shower, closing the
shower door behind him.
Bulma had heard him go into the bathroom and turn on the shower. ~Hmm... I
wonder how long he's gonna be in there...~ Suddenly the most devious idea
came to her. "Hee-hee! Bulma, you devil!"
With that she headed towards the bathroom as well...
Vegeta was busily scrubbing his hair and didn't hear the sound of a door
opening as he did. He also didn't hear the sound of it closing as a lithe figure
glided her way into the bathroom. He was too enraptured with his thinking that
he failed to notice that the shapely figure had dropped their robe and was now
closing in on him.
He blindly searched for the soap and his hand came to rest on something soft...
~What the....?~ He opened his eyes to see the grinning face of a very naked
Bulma and where his hands had landed had NOT been the soap.
"Good Kami!!!!!" He yelped and literally flew out the shower door. He landed
on his rear and he stared wide-eyed at the nude Bulma, who was certainly a
sight to behold. ~Dammit! This is NO time to get a my hormones in
overdrive!~
She sauntered seductively out of the shower and headed towards him. "My
goodness, Veggie-Chan! A little jumpy aren't we?" She purred.
Vegeta shuddered at the name "Veggie-Chan." Only one other person had, had
the nerve to call him that, and lived to see the next few minutes... He snapped
out of his flash-back and redirected his attention to the matter at hand. "What
the... hell do... you think you're... doing! Woman!" He managed to choke out.
This was NOT working out very well for him at all. He went to grab the towel
but it was jerked away from him.
"Nah-ah! Bad little prince! You won't be needing THAT for the next while."
She chided sensuously.
He then made a break for the door, but that captivating little vixen blocked his
hasty retreat.
"Bad boy! If you want out you have to get through ME..." she taunted
naughtily.
Vegeta had never run so fast in his life.
