*Can that really be true...? My instincts are to... fight?* Bulma thought, her face showing that of shock, disbelief, and confusion. "No," she responded to Vegeta's ridiculous claim. "That's bullshit. I am a human! Human's don't have the instinct to fight!"

Vegeta only shrugged. "If the occasion calls for it, some do. It's like your bald-headed friend Krilloop or whatever his name is. If he or someone he cares about-" Vegeta shuddered, "-were in trouble, his instincts are to fight. When Cell had swallowed up his beloved machine woman, he went ballistic and attacked him, even though he knew he had no chance in hell of winning. That's what it means. I have reason to believe that you also have that instinct-and it only just now started to show. Plus, your temper adds to it." Bulma fumed at that last part, but regained her composure.

"So... what you're saying is... I could have the power to fight with everyone?" she asked timidly.

"Not necessarily, I don't think that your inner power is great enough to deal with the type of enemies we face, but it is pretty powerful. And if I train you to the point where you can control it and bring out the power whenever you need to, you would be able to protect yourself, or any of your pathetic family or friends, if they're in some sort of human danger, like a pick-pocket." Vegeta snickered at his last comment as Bulma did nothing but give him a dirty look and turn away from him.

"Hmph!" she squeaked as she crossed her arms over her chest and stuck her chin in the air.

"I'm going to let in more gravity," Vegeta stated simply and did so before Bulma could protest. But Bulma had turned around
quickly just as he let in the gravity-making it about 3X Earth's normal gravity-and toppled over from the immense pressure being pushed onto her. She toppled over right into Vegeta's surprisingly open arms. She grabbed his rock-hard biceps and tried to pull herself up, but not before marveling at the sheer muscle in his well-built arms.

*Damn...* she thought as she unconsciously rubbed his arms lightly, hearing a slight purr erupt from Vegeta's throat. *THAT was interesting,* she smirked, rubbing her face more into his chest, once again, completely forgetting about the gravity. They stood in that position for a bit, Vegeta hardly able to control himself against the sudden, unfamiliar feelings he was getting. Slowly, his control and restraint was fading, as was his gravity blocker, and he slowly began to let the gravity in. Bulma didn't notice at all, she just kept leaning against Vegeta's chest, rubbing his arms.

Vegeta's breathing became heavier by the second as he was getting extremely aroused. *Stop it!!* he yelled at himself in his head. *Why are you getting horny over this damn, loud, annoying bitch of a woman???* He was nearly shaking with rage, as well as from his raging hormones. How long had it been since he had gotten some? He couldn't remember. It was when he was still under the control of Frieza, that dick face. But he did have to admit, none of his concubines were NEARLY as beautiful, sexy, or desirable as the woman. *None were nearly as fucking annoying, either!* he screamed in his mind. *Now stop it!!*

Then Bulma's mind kicked in. *What the hell are you doing? This is Vegeta! The murderer! No matter how unbelievably sexy or strong he is, you can't be attracted to him!!* she thought angrily, but she just couldn't pull away from his strong warmth. She could feel an incredible pressure on her, but she pushed it to the back of her mind. No matter how much she despised and hated Vegeta, this felt too right to move from.

But the moment was up when Vegeta's macho, Vegeta attitude kicked in. He put his hands on Bulma's upper arms and pushed her slowly away from him.

"You're fine," he whispered. "Do you have any idea how much gravity you're withstanding, and how quickly?" Bulma looked confused.

"I thought you were protecting me from the gravity," she responded. Vegeta's shoulders slumped a bit. He wasn't going to admit that he lost the control to keep it up. Time to lie.

"While you were pathetically holding on to me, I slowly let the gravity in to see if you would notice." Even though it was meant as a snide remark to how pathetic she was for clinging to him for dear life, there was a softness in his voice that she didn't recognize. So she just said the only thing she could as she stared deeply into his eyes.

"Oh..." She couldn't hold herself back as she slowly stood up on her tiptoes and brought her lips inches from his.

~*~*~*~*~*~

"Chichi!" she heard from behind her. She flung around, a large smile on her face.

"GOKU!!" she cried. "You're here!!" Goku landed directly in front of her and she threw her arms around his neck, kissing him lovingly. Mr. Popo only smiled from behind them.

"So," Goku started when they finally pulled away, "what's the deal again?"

"Well, Bulma wanted to see what the whole hype was about the Room of Spirit and Time, so she told me to stand watch while she went in and checked around. Then Vegeta got here and pushed me aside. He went into the Room and shut the door, locking it for a year... Bulma is trapped in there for a year, ALONE, with Vegeta!! She's gonna kill him, or worse, he's gonna kill her!" Chichi's story just poured out of her in a frantic rush.

"Chichi," Goku replied, grabbing her shoulders. "Calm down! I know they may get in fights, but I don't think that they hate each other enough to KILL each other! They may get into some heated verbal fights, but I think I might have a small idea about what might come out of this." Chichi looked at him quizzically.

"Uh... what do you think will happen?" Goku smiled.

"I think that they will actually get together."

Chichi fell backwards onto the floor, her foot twitching in the air.

"ARE YOU CRAZY??!!" she screamed as she shot up. "Get TOGETHER?????" Goku cringed noticeably.

"Well..... yea...."

"How can you POSSIBLY believe that!?" Goku stood up fully and cleared his throat.

"Well," Goku started, pulling out half-moon glasses from his pocket and putting them on, "from what I see, they are so incredibly similar that they are bound to end up together. From my point of view, their yelling, screaming and constant bickering will probably turn into daily 'romps.' You can't see it? Bulma may act like she wants to choke the life out of him, but you should see the way he looks at him when he comes out of the training room, I've seen the look. Same with Vegeta." Goku pulled off his glasses, folded them up, and stuck them back in his pocket. He took a deep breath and smiled, looking down at Chichi to see her reaction.

Chichi was silently staring at him for a minute... then suddenly burst out laughing. Goku's face fell.

"Oh Goku! Where do you come UP with these crazy ideas! You've been listening to too much Dr. Ruth! Oh Jesus..." she wiped a tear as she slowly walked away from him, then quickly turned around. "Now hurry up, we need comfort food, chocolates, blankets, tissues, a bunch of stuffed animals, and a vibrator. Bulma's going to need them when she comes out."

~*~*~*~*~*~

Bulma's mind had gone blank, as had Vegeta's, so none of them put up any resistance to the inevitable. Then it happened.

They kissed.

There was an instant electricity between them so powerful it almost forced then to pull apart. But they only continued their light, romantic kiss that seemed to go one forever; never ending. Then Bulma's mind finally surfaced from the hazy fog that Vegeta had aroused in her mind. *What are you doing!!? You can't kiss or be romantically involved with the enemy! VEGETA IS THE ENEMY!!!*

She pulled away quickly, shock and realization hit her like a freight train. She had kissed Vegeta! What the hell was WRONG with her?? She glanced at her bare wrist, checking the time where there was no watch.

"Well! Look at the time! I had better go to bed. Thanks for the gravity training!" she sputtered quickly and ran off, leaving a dazed and confused Vegeta with a look on his face that was extremely similar to that of a deer caught in headlights.

*Wow...* was all that registered in his mind.

While Vegeta's brain was in the clouds, Bulma was rushing around the makeshift "house" in a mad frenzy. She glanced at the clock on the wall and, seeing as it was 10:45 PM, decided it was about time that she went to bed. *But damnit!* she thought with frustration. *It's only the 3rd day and I've already kissed him!* She defeatedly walked into her room and changed into her pajamas, which was basically her underwear and a short shirt, lay down on the bed, and pulled the covers up to her chest.

*I wonder what the rest of the year will be like...*

~*~*~*~*~*~
