Lonely Hearts
Prologue~Part One - A Glimmer of Truth

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

From Vegeta's POV

Kami, how many years has it been? How long have I known this bakayaro? And how long have I cared? Che. It's hard to believe I do care. But I do. That big lunk has been my friend for decades. Ever since we fought together against Majin Buu. It would have been sooner, but for my ego. My pride has gotten in the way of my happiness more times than I care to remember. He was patient and understood, better than anyone ever could. Not even my Bulma understood me that well. Bulma . . . I miss you. Why do humans have such short lifespans? Only two of the humans I've ever cared about still live and only because they aren't really human any longer. Jianu and Laura. Turning super-ningen as children unintentionally altered their genetic structure permanently giving them saiya-jin lifespans. That's all-right for Laura, she's mated to Goten. But Jianu suffered the same fate as the rest of us. Helplessly watching as our human mates died slowly from age. Damn, I'm avoiding the issue again. Kakarott. Something's changed recently and I sure as hell can't figure it out. When I'm around him, I get this strange feeling in the pit of my stomach, it's not a bad feeling, just strange. And lately . . . lately I catch myself watching him when he's not paying attention. There's a strange grace to his every movement and I can't seem to take my eyes off of him, maybe I don't want to . . . Gah! Yamero!! That can't be it! I've just been alone too long, that's all. We're just friends and nothing more. Nothing more at all . . .

From Goku's POV

Something's building, I can feel it. I've been sensing it for weeks now. It's not bad, I can tell that much for sure, but whatever it is it's gonna be big. I think . . . I think it has somethin' ta do with Vegeta, he's been actin' kinda strange lately. I think he's lonely. I know he misses Bulma, he even told me once. Boy, I wasn't expecting that. I mean, Vegeta never tells ANYBODY how he feels and here he was tellin' me how much he wished that Bulma was still alive. I understand how he feels, I have the same problem . . . Chichi died a long time ago and I miss her a lot. Sometimes I've seen him give me one of those looks like Jianu gives Gohan or Goten and Laura give each other. At least I think it's that kind, maybe I'm wrong. I'm not too good at figuring this kinda stuff out. I'll work it out though, I always do.
