| A Bedtime Story to Remember By Noonstar14 Disclaimer: I don’t own DB/Z/GT. It is so sad but true. I do how ever own this plot so don’t sue me for anything. Not that I have money anyway. It had been a hard day at the Capsule Corporation and all Bulma wanted to do was go to bed, if Vegeta would let her that is. But fate wasn’t not her side. “I don’t want to go to bed.” Whined Trunks. The three-year-old sat at the foot of his bed glaring at his mom with a defiant look in his eyes. “Oh what a surprise.” She said pushing him into back into bed. “I’m not sleepy.” He continued pulling the covers up to his chest. “I can fix that.” Said Vegeta from the doorway balling his hand into a fist. “That wont be necessary, I can take care of this on my own. Go to bed I’ll be in in a minute.” Bulma rushed. She knew that Vegeta would not just tire Trunks out but that he push Trunks a little harder that she would like. “Have it your way, woman.” He said walking down the hall. Bulma looked at her son gravely, “If I tell you a story will you go to sleep.” She asked. “If I like the story yes. If not you have to tell me another.” He had tried this before, to extend his time by asking for story after story. But Bulma was not in the mood to play this game tonight. “One story and that is it or none at all.” She said sitting down next to his bed. “Fine.” he said lying back into the pillows sadly. “O.K. the story’s called Vegeta Learns to Love.” “It’s about Papa!” Trunks cried happily. “It has our dad’s name but it’s just a story. Now are you going to let me tell the story or do you want to go to bed right now?” Trunks didn’t say any thing just lied back down. “Good now where was I…oh yes. “Once on the planet of Vegitasii there was a prince that could not feel love. It made his heart cold and hard to his people’s needs. One day his loyal guard Kakarrot asked him why. “Kakarrot, that’s what papa calls son Goku.” Said Trunks excitedly. “Yes, and if you don’t stop interrupting me your going strait to bed.” Bulma said leveling her eyes at him. “Sorry mama.” He said lowering his eyes. Bulma thought a minute and started again. “The prince, Vegeta, answered that when he was born a fortuneteller told his father that if Prince Vegeta loved anyone his family line would become tainted. Vegeta’s father got so mad that he didn’t even finish the telling. To this day Prince Vegeta wondered what the rest of the telling was. So Kakarrot set out to find this mysterious fortuneteller. He searched far and wide only to find her one block away on the street. Kakarrot asked the woman. “Can you tell me the complete telling of Prince Vegeta?” She looked up at him and answered. “Through the prince’s love his line will become tainted. But through love strength and wisdom will make his new line the most powerful of all.” Kakarrot rushed back to tell the prince the good news. “Then we must find a way for me to love.” The prince yelled at his guard. He searched all over Vegitasii for a cure with no success. So he sent out his fastest ships to search the stars for a way for him to love. After one year of searching Kakarrot came to Earth. He asked the smartest earthling, Bulma, what to do. She made a deal with him. If they shared their technology she would teach their prince how to love. They made the deal and Kakarrot took her to Vegitasii where she would stay for three years. “What are you going to do to make me love?” Prince Vegeta asked at once. All she said was, “You will see.” So for three years Bulma lived at the palace seeming to do nothing to teach Prince Vegeta to love. Every day the prince went to see her, and every day they would fight. The reasons differed depending on what was troubling them. Every day when he left he would ask her what she was going to do to make him love, and every day she would answer you will see. Sadly the three years were coming to an end and Bulma would soon be leaving. Prince Vegeta found himself wishing that she would stay. Since he didn’t know what love felt like he shook it off, but his people did not. They knew he was in love with her and they were waiting for something to happen. These were not the only people to hear of Prince Vegeta’s love for Bulma. The evil Emperor Freeza had heard of the prophecy for a more powerful line from one of his many spies. He could not let this happen if he was to conquer Prince Vegeta’s kingdom. Meanwhile, Bulma and Prince Vegeta got into their worst fight ever. “You have done nothing to make me love! If you can’t cure me then why do you stay?” The prince yelled at her. “Don’t you see? I love you!” She shrieked back at him. Prince Vegeta stared at her unmoving. Bulma was so embarrassed that she ran from the room and out the palace walls. Little did she know that someone was waiting for her. Soon the prince realized that he did feel something towards Bulma that he could not explain. ‘Was this love.’ He thought rushing after her. Bulma was still running thinking only that he didn’t love her. Suddenly she ran into something. Thinking it was Prince Vegeta she said, “Leave me alone. If you can’t love by now you can’t love at all.” “Is that so, well I just can’t risk it. Your too dangerous to me alive.” Said Freeza mockingly. “That will be hard for a dead man.” Said Prince Vegeta from behind. “What, Vegeta! No!” Freeza screamed, as he was shoot through the heart. “Why?” Bulma asked shocked that he had saved her. “Because,” He said helping her up, “I can’t have a dead queen.” The end.” Bulma finished softly. Trunks had just closed his eyes as Freeza was killed. A smile still rested on his tired face. Bulma slowly got up to turn off the lights. “Good night Trunks.” She said closing the door behind her. “Good night Prince Vegeta.” He whispered half asleep. Bulma laughed under her breath as she walked down the hall to her room. “What did you tell the brat?” Vegeta asked not even opening his eyes. “A story.” She said simply. “What kind?” He asked as she climbed into bed, clothes and all. “You know the usual. Arrogant, ugly, stupid prince meets smart, gorgeous, wonderful woman. Falls madly in love, kills bad guy, and lives happily ever after. I am so tired all I want to do is go to sleep.” Vegeta rolled over draping his arm over her waist. While his kissed her neck seductively. “All you want to do?” He whispered into her neck. “You know between you and Trunks I don’t know how I get any sleep.” Bulma said turning so that she could kiss him passionately on the lips. The End AN: This was my first story that I’ve ever written. I hope you liked it. Just to let you know the story Bulma told Trunks was not how Bulma and Vegeta got together. I like the stories that could have happened. Well if your nice or just bored tell me what you think and e-mail me at Noonstar14@aol.com |
