Chapter 9

To good to be true

After gym, Bulma and Chichi headed to their next class together, Multimedia. On the way to class Bulma kept thinking about the conversation her and Vegeta had. How he acted like a completely different person when away from everyone, but she was still worried that it might be a trick. Bulma was going to be careful. She knew what kind of person Vegeta was and she was not about to let him get the better of her. She was going to hold her ground with him.

Chichi on the other hand couldn’t get Goku out of her head, how he was being so sweet, and caring towards her. He seemed like the old Goku, the Goku Chichi fell for so long ago. She knew she, too, had to be careful around him. Bulma had reminded her all through gym that it seemed to good to be true and why now all of sudden was the guys changing and to stick to one girl.

The girls took their seats towards the back of the room at a table. Both were still caught up in talking that they didn’t notice the guys taking the table directly next to them. “Hey Chi.” Chichi jumped at the sound of her name to turn to see Goku smiling wide at her. She could feel her heart start to melt. “Oh hey Goku, I didn’t know you had this class.”

“Yep. I figure I need something easy that way I can get an easy GPA and be able to play my sports. So Chichi do you think you want to go out sometime this week before the party?”

Chichi was amazed, she didn’t know what to say. She felt Bulma give her a nudge so she would respond, “Um yea. Sure Goku that sounds great. We can catch up on all that we missed.” Chichi was excited for this. Goku on the other end was somewhat dreading it. He didn’t like how girls would go on and on and on. It seemed at times they would never shut up. Guys don’t like to hear a 30 minute story that could be told in 5 minutes.

“Ok sounds great Chi, what did you want to do?” Vegeta once again started to get bored to listening to those two talk, he figured he better start talking to Bulma more if he is going to win this bet because he hated to admit it but right now it seemed like Goku was winning. Goku did already have a head start with Chichi already liking him.

Bulma noticed Vegeta stand and started to walk towards her. She noticed that there was still 5 minutes till class started. ‘Damn bell needs to hurry and ring, plus the teacher needs to hurry too. Ugh.’ Vegeta grabbed a chair from another table and sat down right next to her. “What do you want Vegeta? I already said I would go with you to the party.”

“Damn Woman you don’t need to be such a bitch. I am trying to be polite and you are being a bitch.” Vegeta was about fed up with her. No one talked to him this way.

“Well I just find this hard to believe that after all these months that Goku didn’t talk to Chichi, really wanted nothing to do with her after she was outcasted by your so called friends.” By now Chichi and Goku started listening after hearing their names in the conversation. “Then after your mean remark you said to me at the party saying how hideous I am and now you are talking to me, trying to get with me. Goku doing the same with Chichi. Why now? Why all of a sudden you are both doing this? Before this continues anymore I want an honest answer.”

Goku and Vegeta just looked at each other. How were they going to respond to that. Vegeta was the first to speak up, “Well Kakarot and I were talking and realized we needed to be a changed man. The reputation we have is not something we want for the rest of our lives. Kakarot knew that Chichi had liked him and I figured you had liked me too. So we figured to give it a try.” Goku nodded in agreement. Bulma just looked at Vegeta, speechless that he wanted to change. “Ok, well I still need to be proven here that you and Goku both want to change.” Before Bulma could finish she noticed Keisha walk in, making her grand entrance. All Bulma could do was to roll her eyes at her. She had began to dislike Keisha more and more as the days went on. She seemed to be the worse of her and Marron. She didn’t know what it was but she had gotten a bad vibe from Keisha and it only seemed to get worse.

Keisha noticed Vegeta and Goku were talking to the outcasted girls. She had sided with Goku thinking he would beat Vegeta, I mean Chichi had fallen for Goku and the whole school knew she liked him. That’s when Keisha had come up with an idea. To make sure Goku would win, she would make it difficult for Vegeta to win Bulma over with this “charm.”

Keisha made her way towards Vegeta where he was sitting talking to Bulma. Keisha started to sway her hips, with a sinister smile on her face. She came up behind Vegeta and wrapped her arms around his neck from behind, brought her lips close to his ear, whispering in his ear, but loud enough for Bulma to hear. “So Vegeta I had fun at your party. Especially the 4 rounds we had. Should I be expecting it again sometime soon?”

Bulma had been watching this disgusting display with annoyance. This was exactly what she was talking about. She knew Vegeta would find it hard turning all these girls down that came at him. Bulma didn’t want to waste her time on something that would more than likely never work out. The pain and suffering she would receive if she fell for him.

Vegeta was shrugging Keisha off of his shoulders. He knew exactly what she was doing and he was not going to tolerate it. “Woman, I don’t know what you are talking about, but if you continue with these lies, well lets just say you won’t like the outcome.” Keisha was somewhat hurt by Vegeta denying they did anything this past weekend. “Fine whatever Vegeta. You can deny it all you want but whenever you get bored with this bitch, you know where I live. Chao.” Keisha walked over to the table in front of the guys, sitting in front of where Goku was sitting.

Vegeta turned his attention back to Bulma. “Don’t listen to that wench. She is nothing to me.”

“Just like I will be nothing to you Vegeta?” Bulma wasn’t going to let Vegeta dismiss his past like it was nothing and start a new. It didn’t work that way. If you want to change it doesn’t happen over night, everyone knows that.

“Whatever woman. I am willing to change and all you are doing is throwing my fucking past in my face. So you know what woman. Fuck you.” With that said Vegeta stood up and walked back to the desk he was sitting at and waited for the teacher to come in. Goku joining Vegeta back at the table.

Chichi turned her attention back to Bulma, “Hey what was all that about?”

Bulma knew Chichi wanted to give Goku a try and she didn’t want to be the one that ruined it for her. “I am sorry Chi, but I just don’t see them really wanting to change all of a sudden. And if Vegeta wants to go out with me then he has a lot to prove to me he is going to be a changed man. I think the same should be with Goku. I know you like him and all…. Listen I am sorry Chichi. I hope I didn’t ruin your chances with him.” Bulma held her head down. If this is what Chichi wants, then she doesn’t need to stand in her way. “Its ok Bulma. I know you are just looking out for me. I thank you for that. It’s hard for girls like us to trust guys like them. We will get through this together and see where this will take us.” Bulma and Chichi gave each other a hug.

The teacher walked in at that time to start the class. “Hello class my name is Mrs. Price. I am going to have you make a PowerPoint of explaining anything you want. Rather it be a hobby, explaining an equation, or how to do your job. Save it to you folder on the computer when you are done. If any questions ask. Other than that, no talking and do your work.”

Bulma and Chichi started their work wanting to get it done by the end of class. They really didn’t want to stay after school since they had plans afterwards. They were so wrapped up in their work when they didn’t notice a folded piece of paper tossed their way. Chichi opened the paper to see that it was in Vegeta’s handwriting.

I was wondering if you girls were interested in doing a double date on Wednesday. Like a dinner and a movie. We want you to give us a try. It won’t be a waste of time and make a good time for you.

Chichi looked over in Bulma direction to see her response. Bulma nodded to her. Chichi took that as a go for it.

I think that will be fantastic. How about you pick us up at my house around…6pm.

Chichi folded the note back up and tossed it back over to the guys. After reading it Vegeta looked at Bulma giving her a smile. It wasn’t a smirk, or anything like that. It was a real smile. ‘Hmm… maybe I am wrong about him. Maybe he really is going to be a changed man.’

Class was finally over and Chichi and Bulma were ready to get out of school and have some real fun with their friends. They met up with Juu and Krillin at Juu’s car. The 4 friends decided to go to dinner at a local barbeque restaurant. When they arrived they found a booth to sit at, ordered their food and started their conversations.

“So I hear you 2 are going on a double date with the players, huh?” Juu started the conversation off with something interesting to talk about.

Chichi responded to her first, “Yea we figure to give it a try but Bulma and I have decided to take it slow and easy. We are not going into this to get hurt in the end if this is some kind of prank.”

“Well it wouldn’t surprise me is this is a prank. I mean I know how they are. I have seen them break girls hearts left and right. They don’t care about anyone but themselves.” Krillin was tired of seeing girls get hurt and the last ones he wanted to see get hurt was Chichi and Bulma.

“Yea I know. I am not really for this, but I am mainly doing this for Chichi and that way we can be there for each other. I think this double date will be good because we will both be there.” Bulma was an honest person when it came to how she felt, it wasn’t always a good thing tho.

After the meal the friends went to the movies to see the new Avatar movie. Once the movie was over they decided it was best for them to get home since there was homework to be done.

Bulma went straight to her room to get started on the loads of homework she had. 2 hours had went by and she was finally finished with it all. Looking at the clock, 8:15pm was staring back at her in bright green color. “Well I finished all my homework and it is too early to go to bed. Ugh what to do now?” She changed out of her lounge clothes being sweat pants and a tank top, into a pair of jeans and putting a sweatshirt on over her tank top. Bulma figured to past some time walking around at the park.

Upon arriving at the park she noticed a couple sitting on the park bench making out. ’Ugh is all this town thinks about here is sex and making out.’ She started walking towards a more private area that seemed no one around. She started to walk around, thinking about her situation she was in. ’How am I going to do this. I mean Vegeta is a good looking guy, but his attitude totally turns me off. The only reason I am so rude to him because of what he said to me at the party. I mean he doesn’t even know me. Well like I said I am only doing this for Chichi because she was would be hurt if I didn’t go through with this. Well I am giving him one shot and if he screws up, I am done. No ands, ifs, or buts.’ Bulma started to notice it was getting late and started to head home. She needed to get some sleep to be ready for another day at school.
