Chapter 7
OOOOOOOOOO8D (A happy worm!)
Vegeta yawned and hugged the warm body next to him closer. Man, he hadn’t woke up with a woman since…
Wait.
Oh shit!
OH SHIT!
Vegeta’s ebony eyes snapped open and he focused on the
slumbering face of Bulma, who lay next to him. An expression that was half fear
and half disbelief slowly crept across his face. He couldn’t believe that he’d
slept with her. Hell, he couldn’t believe that the stubborn bloody woman had
slept with him! The memories of his torturous days while he had been in heat
were only fuzzy memories; he could remember only flashes of the past few
days. That was normal of course; being
in heat was like being really, really drunk. You lost all inhibitions and all
self-control.
But still…he’d slept with the woman?
Vegeta carefully moved her head off his chest and slowly edged
across the bed away from her. One thing was for sure; he didn’t want to be
around when she woke up! He reached the end of the bed and paused as another
memory returned to him…oh God! Had he actually used those pick up line on her? She’d
never let him live it down; she’d bring it up at every chance and would mock
his loss of control around her! She’d probably make up some sort of horrible
nick name like…like…he didn’t want to think what kind of a name she’d make up
for him!
Vegeta closed his eyes as thoughts of the Z gang members
laughing at him assaulted his mind; he knew the woman would blab! She’d run
straight to Kakarot when they got home, would convince him to first of all kick
Vegeta’s ass for taking advantage of her and then would embarrass the hell out
of him by telling them all the embarrassing things he’d said and done while he
was on heat.
So lost in these thoughts of humiliation was Vegeta that he fell
off the bed with a thump.
A loud thump!
A thump that was followed by a startled yell by Vegeta, and was
more then enough to wake up Bulma, and wake up she did…with a vengeance! She
sat up, squealed when she saw Vegeta and wrapped a sheet around herself. “You
manipulative little creature!” She hurled a pillow at Vegeta as he picked
himself up off the floor. “You tricked me last night! You lied your way into
bed! Shame on you Vegeta!” Her blue eyes were practically sparking with anger
as she glared daggers at him.
“Oh, do shut up.” Vegeta muttered under his breath as he crossed his arms over his chest and stood in front of the woman, unashamed of his nakedness. “Be grateful that I’m off heat now!”
“Oh, I am! But don’t think that being grateful is going to be
enough to stop me from hurting you!” Bulma tossed her hair over one shoulder
and looked upon Vegeta as though he was a bug to be crushed.
Needless to say this behaviour didn’t impressive the prince of
all saiyans.
“Oh?” Vegeta growled as he walked around the bed to Bulma’s side
and lent down close to her, his voice a dangerous growl. “And how do you plan
to hurt me? You can’t use sex to manipulate me anymore! In fact, now I think
about it, it’s you who should be careful of me! I could kill you out here and
space your body and nobody would ever know!”
“You wouldn’t!” Bulma breathed, her eyes widening as she
realised that she’d lost what little leverage over Vegeta she’d had.
Vegeta brought his face down till it was about a centre metre
from hers and laughed. “There are a lot of things I could do to you while we’re
out here in space.” He traced a finger down her arm and lowered his dark head
to kiss her again.
Bulma blushed and shoved Vegeta away; “You wouldn’t do anything
to me, who’d fix the food machine when it gets broken?” Bulma was having a hard
time keeping her eyes off Vegeta’s body as he stood directly in front of her
again. Had he really tried to kiss her then or was she imagining things? Surely
he wouldn’t force himself upon her?
Vegeta looked at Bulma a little longer before he leant closer to
her again. “Normally I wouldn’t hurt you, no. But if you piss me off enough
Woman, I might do something I’ll regret later in a fit of temper.” Vegeta moved
in a lightning quick movement, pulling Bulma close to him and forcefully
kissing her. He abruptly let her go and Bulma fell back to the bed, blushing
furiously. “By the way, thanks for last night. You were fun.” Vegeta winked at
her.
“Bastard! I liked you better when you were on heat.” Bulma stood
up and slapped Vegeta, actually managing to leave a bright red hand mark on his
face. “And if you ever, ever bring up
last night again I swear I’ll find someway to kill you! Last night was the most
degrading experience of my life and I’d rather forget about it!” Bulma almost
spat at Vegeta she was in such a temper.
“Degrading?” Vegeta’s mouth fell open. “You slept with a Prince
and it was degrading? At least I said you were fun!”
Bulma and Vegeta glared at each other angrily, then, against all
laws of nature and common sense they moved closer and kissed passionately.
Bulma pulled
away first. “That was wrong.”
“Very wrong.” Vegeta agreed. They stood looking at uneasily each
other for a few moments until Vegeta suddenly stepped away. “I’m going to go
have a shower.”
“Yeah, I’ll get breakfast.” Bulma and Vegeta hurried away in
opposite directions, both of them blushing bright red as they wondered what was
going on between them.
Bulma got to the doorway before she realised that she was naked
and she turned and hurried back to the bedroom and salvaged what clothes she
could from the wreckage of the bedroom. She hurriedly dressed, cursing Vegeta
as she threw her ruined bra on the floor and tied her t-shirt around her chest,
boob-tube style. Vegeta was going to pay for destroying her clothes! No matter
what he did to her in return it would be a small price to pay!
She walked over to the bathroom door and pulled out the small
electrical panel by the door and quickly ripped a small red wire out. Now he’d
get no hot water – she’d show him who was fun! The bastard cool off with
a cold shower for a while!
~*~
Vegeta started to wash himself, looking at the fingernail marks
that were raked down his chest. He could still feel the woman under him…moaning
his name…“No!” Vegeta forcefully shook his head as though shaking the images
out. “Don’t think about it! It’s all over now!”
Vegeta ignored the voice in his head as it began to list off the
top one hundred reasons why he should seduce Bulma again. He wasn’t going
to seduce her - he didn’t even like her! She flirted too much, wore too little
and couldn’t cook! Sure she could fix all his machines and sure she was good in
bed and had been in his dreams for almost two months now…
Vegeta shook his head again, damn! He didn’t want to crave the
woman like this! It was inconvenient and these sexual craving would get in the
way of his training. The water of the shower suddenly turned icy and Vegeta
heard a malicious laugh from outside the bathroom door…the woman!
He opened the shower door and leapt out the freezing cascade of
water, he threw open the bathroom door and grabbed the woman before she could
get more then two steps away. Vegeta pulled her around and was preparing to
yell at her when he realised that her ‘shirt’ had fallen down again and her
breasts were pressed against his chest.
Vegeta swallowed hard.
“Woman! You ruined my…breasts…NO! I mean you ruined my shower
with all your breasts…NO! You ruined my shower by turning off the hot water and
now you’re standing here naked and….” Vegeta caught sight of her amused face.
“You don’t want to know what I was about to say woman.”
“I think I know what you were about to say.” She leant
closer to him, her eyes sparkling with a knowing amusement that irked Vegeta.
“You like me don’t you? It wasn’t just the heat…”
“Shut up!” Vegeta cringed under her gaze – he didn’t want to
hear the truth!
“I bet you have some sort of perverted saiyan crush…” Bulma
continued, her malicious smile widening as Vegeta blushed.
“Shut up!” The saiyan prince tried desperately to wriggle away,
but it was hopeless; the woman had her pinned with her endless sky blue eyes.
“Do you looooove me? Do you wanna haaaaave me?” Bulma crooned, determined
to embarrass the prudish prince as much as possible.
Vegeta turned red and managed to look away and swallow hard
before answering. “Shut up woman!”
“Oh ho! So I was right! You do have some twisted thing
for me, huh?”
“Okay, okay, I like you! Not a lot but you are attractive!”
Vegeta pouted. “Just don’t go thinking that I actually love you! That’s
a little too far fetched!”
“I wouldn’t dare think
that Vegeta, don’t fret too much over it.” Bulma tilted her head to the side.
“So you like me huh? Why?”
“What do you mean why?” Vegeta narrowed his eyes, she was trying
to trick him somehow, she would get him to admit everything he could and then
she’d pounce and would somehow make him seem foolish!
“Why do you like me? Yamcha always said I was ‘cute,’ what’s
your excuse?”
“Excuse? I am Vegeta the prince of all saiyans! I do not make
excuses! Besides, maybe I agree with your idiotic ex-boyfriend, you are very
attractive.” Vegeta pushed the woman away suddenly. “I do not like being
questioned like this! Just because I find you attractive physically doesn’t
mean I actually like you in any way!”
“But you just said you liked me!” Bulma’s face fell, she was disappointed
that Vegeta had given in to her so easily!
“Because you’re attractive, I don’t actually like you in
any other sense.” Vegeta took a step away when suddenly the computers voice
came over the COM line.
“Warning! Warning! The ship has entered the atmosphere of a
planetary body!”
“What?!” Bulma shrieked, bolting out to the main room and
looking at the COM screen. The computer had brought up a picture of a green
planet; she began typing at the computer and brought up a new screen.
“According to the computer the planet has a breathable atmosphere and a
tolerable level of gravity…”
“Which planet is it?” Vegeta held onto the chair as their ship
was now well and truly heading into the planets cloudy atmosphere and they were
being buffeted by the speed of their re-entry.
“I don’t know…” Bulma clutched at the arms of the chair. “All I
do know is that I have to somehow land this ship in one piece.”
“Without a navigation system?” Vegeta looked aghast. “Is that
even possible?”
“Possible, but very unlikely.” Bulma strapped herself in. “I’m
just going to have to fly manually.”
Vegeta stood next to her and when Bulma put her hands on the
manual control joystick he put his hands over hers. “You won’t be strong enough
by yourself, you’ll need my help.”
“Yeah, your right.” Bulma tried to calm herself as the pressed
the manual control button. “Here we go…”
~*~
A/N – Oooooh…they’re going to try to land manually! And Vegeta is still naked! Will they land the ship and survive? Will Vegeta ever get dressed again? You’ll have to wait and see what happens in the next chapter!
