Chapter 15
Decisions Made
It was late afternoon till the pair got home. Bulma hadn't realised how far they'd travelled in the last few days. She was still upset about the lake incident. Bulma rushed inside for a hot shower.
"Woman what about the wish." Vegeta shouted at her.
"I'll wait till nightfall. The dragon won't be so obvious." Bulma shouted back. She was too desperate to get clean. It was distracting her. She knew her thoughts had to be clear. Any mistakes now and she could be stuck with the tail. *It wouldn't be so bad, I like my tail. It just feels weird when it's wet.* The fine fur went into pin feathers and was really uncomfortable. *I know why cats hate water now.* After her pampering Bulma began to feel human again.
Her mother had made her a small snack and she ate it while her mother asked questions. "So did you and Vegeta.... you know." Mrs. Briefs giggled and winked at Bulma.
"Mom! That's between me and Vegeta." Bulma yelled.
"Oh, okay." Mrs. Briefs took a small sip of coffee. "So are you going to make this wish? I kind of like your blue tail. It makes you unique."
"Thanks mom, I like my tail too but I don't know whether Vegeta is attracted to me or the tail."
"Oh so he IS attracted to you." Mrs. Briefs simpered. "I just know it's love."
"It's not love." Bulma snapped.
"Nonsense Bulma, you're in love I can tell." Her mother looked at her cheeks.
Bulma reddened as she knew she was being examined. "Maybe I am but I don't know if Vegeta is." Bulma confessed. She put her hand on her chin.
"Sure he is. He gave up three days training to be with you." Mrs. Briefs gave a quick glance outside. Vegeta had holed himself up in the gravity chamber.
*Only cos he wanted sex.* Bulma thought to herself. She too glanced out the window. The gravity chamber could just be seen. It seemed eerily quiet.
"So are you and him going to marry?" Mrs Briefs watched Bulma's jaw twitch.
"Maybe..." Bulma said and instantly regretted it.
Her mother began dancing around in a hyper mood. "Oooh I've got to tell Teddi! I've got to pick out a hat! So much to do!" She scurried off to find Dr. Briefs. Bulma was left feeling upset. It wasn't official. Vegeta could regret her when he saw her tailless behind. She could still end up alone with a house full of cats.
Bulma rested her head on the table. She remembered the idea that had hit her earlier. It was a gamble but then she knew Vegeta was worth it. *I'll do it now. It won't work with Vegeta watching.*
*********
Vegeta pounded the air. Bulma kept surfacing in his mind. *I thought sex with the bitch would have fixed this.* When he did his press ups he had an image of the woman beneath him. Her tail curled around his waist. Keeping him close to her. Vegeta kissed the imaginary lips. They were tender and soft. The fantasy Bulma was naked wriggling under him.
Vegeta remember every curve of her. The way she trembled under his touch. The sweet smell of her sweat. He had memorised it all; which troubled him. Every partner before her had been faceless drones. He instantly forgot any characteristic details. Though he could assume it was because he knew her before. She only had the tail for the past week. He found her attractive before, but not enough to have as a mate. Vegeta decided to use this new found imagination. He had never found any use for it before. Now he could try and imagine what she would look like without the tail.
The dream Bulma still remained but the blue tail dissappeared. For some reason his vision winked at him and stuck out her tongue. Vegeta sighed slowly. She was still gorgeous, he would have fallen for her anyway. The tail had just been a catalyst.
*Damn it! Did I pick up a stupid germ from the woman? * Vegeta began cursing to himself for his ignorance. He fingered the mark on his neck. He wanted her and she wanted him. The mark told him that more than anything.
*So what's my fucking problem?* he fumed to himself. Finally it hit him like a smack in the face. *I want her and her tail.* It didn't matter to him that it was a fake tail. It didn't matter that she made it to taunt him. She was beautiful to him in any form.
*If she had a horn on her head I'd still want her as my mate.* He glanced out the window. For some reason it was dark already. Then a realisation hit him in the pit of his stomach.
The woman was being her impulsive self again. The dragon had been summoned. Vegeta bolted upright. Any daydreaming long forgotten. He had to tell her not to do it. To keep the tail. He needed her to have the tail. It just looked so ...
*Can a Saiyan prince really call someone cute and still keep his pride?* He shook the trivial thought away. Whatever his personal reasons he'd just force her to keep it. Even if it meant making a wish himself. The earth dragonballs only had one wish. He'd would wish for something silly like a giant strawberry tart.
*Yeah strawberries are nice. I'll just waste her wish with an insane wish like that. I amaze myself sometimes.* Vegeta pounded out of the gravity room.
He hardly blinked at the size of the dragon. Bulma was a small dot below it. She wasn't smiling but looked serious.
"That is a very bizarre wish." The dragon boomed. "Very well it shall be done." Vegeta had been too late.
There was a flash of brilliant light. Shen Long returned to the balls. They darted away in separate directions. Daylight returned to the skies.
"WOMAN!" Vegeta yelled. He couldn't believe it. Bulma looked blankly at him. She was crying. She was feeling her behind. The tail was gone.
"No! You MORON! You couldn't wait!" Vegeta shouted.
Bulma shook her head. She was too choked up to speak.
"I was going to say KEEP it. I like the look on you but forget it." Vegeta's permanent scowl seemed deeper. His trust had been hurt.
Bulma made small bubbly noises. "It....it's not....*sniff*..like that...I..." She cried into her hands unable to speak further.
Vegeta just looked distastefully at her. "So much for waiting. Mates are suppose to do these things together. Guess you're not wife material." He turned his back on her and went to her father's lab. He wanted to get as far away from her as possible.
"Vegeta...I love you." Bulma whispered softly. Her voice was strained from her crying. It hurt to speak. She fell on the ground in a mess.
*He doesn't love me. Now he won't even trust me.* She sat on the grass for an hour crying. It was only when her mother came out to collect her. Wrapping a blanket around her shivering body.
For once she didn't say a word to her daughter. She just hugged her tighter when Vegeta's capsule blasted off. He had left Bulma for space.

Authors Note: WAHHHHH!!! The tails gone! I loved her tail. *sniff* This is not the end of the story. I don't like sad endings. I just decided to go for a bit of drama. It must be the Chibi's influence. Yeah I'll blame the Chibi's.
