Sapphire

Bulma returned from the hole from under Vegeta's bed and sighed. She looked back to the room and remembered what Vegeta said about his attraction towards her. She didn't know what to expect from this point. Such a strange feeling overcame her as she wanted to leave the room and find out what her jobs were later when she felt a cold breath of air brush up against her exposed neck. Trembling, she turned slowly to see Vegeta glaring at her. He didn't look too happy at her as he narrowed his eyes towards her. Shacking, she couldn't move until Vegeta walked past her and to his closet.

"Woman I need you to run some errands for me." He stated as his large, wooden, closet door opened and he began to inspect his clothing to find something suitable to wear. Bulma nodded at his request but still remained in her place and silent.

"I want you to take the package on my desk to Dedoria. It's something my father wants to give to Frieza and I don't trust him around you, he might take you for his own." Bulma cocked an eyebrow and took a step towards him.

"Why don't you do it? If it's from your father then it's your duty to take it too him yourself." Vegeta turned his head and glared at her with those same eyes he did the minute before.

"Don't question me woman. I'm busy and since you obviously have nothing better to do than stare at me and stand in my room, then I suggest you do what I ask of you." He turned around again and grabbed a black pair of pants and a red shirt, throwing them over his shoulder as he started to walk out of the room, pausing at the door.

"I would also like you to dust around here a bit. You know I'm allergic to dust." Bulma blinked a few times in confusion.

"I never knew that." Vegeta smirked in her response.

"Well now you do." With that said he walked out of the room, closing the door behind him. Bulma turned her attention towards the package on his desk. It was wrapped in a tan paper, almost like a paper bag. It had string tied around it too so it wouldn't open on its own. It looked like an ordinary package. Bulma knew where she could find Dedoria. He had a quarters somewhere in the castle so he could keep communications between Frieza and King Vegeta, though she never really understood why they had a friendship after what had happened between them. Some years ago, before Bulma had come to Vegeta-sei, Frieza sent a threat to kill any and all Saya-jins if they surpassed his own elite. King Vegeta had come and retrieved his son from his training and threatened to bring him down if he used his people like puppets and killing them off just for his own amusement. A war almost broke out between the two powers, but soon enough they came to an agreement that King Vegeta take his people out of Frieza's command and Frieza keeps ties with Vegeta-sei and occasionally take some Saya-jins for missions against threats towards him. Frieza sent Dedoria to Vegeta-sei as a communications officer and he would be the best way to get the package to Frieza without endangering Bulma's life. Bulma picked up the package from Vegeta's desk and began to walk out of his room, still reflecting upon what had happened below his room and what Vegeta had said.

Velta stood in the garden picking flowers with Rei, who was let off work due to Bardock and Kakkarot spending "quality" time together. The garden was beautiful. It consisted of Roses of many colors, such as red, purple, yellow, white, pink, blue and orange. Also in the garden, there were lilies, daisies, sunflowers, and even some rare plants, that only the Kingdom would hold. It was a clear blue day, not a cloud in the sky. The birds sang their song as they flew by Velta and Rei. Velta smiled and placed a few more roses in her basket and stood up from her position, rubbing her hands on a small rag that hung from her shoulder.

"What a beautiful day isn't Rei?" She asked, grabbing a nod out of Rei.

"It is you highness. I'm just sorry it didn't start out as well as it should have."

"I know, but everything will be better as the day goes by. My husband has already gone to training to blow off steam. I'm sure Vegeta will come out soon and be calmer than he was. Well, speak of the devil," Vegeta came out of the main door upon her statement wearing the red shirt and black pants he had chosen out to wear. He walked up to his mother and Rei, stopping in front of them and crossing his arms.

"Where is father? I would like to spar with him." He demanded.

"He's out training at the moment Vegeta. I'm afraid you're a little late to spar with him right now." Vegeta huffed and stated his way towards the main fence of the castle to stare at the city. Rei kept her eyes on Vegeta as he walked away. Something was wrong, she could feel it. Bulme then emerged from the house and strolled over to the two women. She as still deep in thought when Velta's voice threw her out of her trance.

"Well Bulma, how are you?" She asked. Bulma smiled nervously, not knowing what to say.

"Fine, just fine. I'm actually running an errand for Vegeta. I have to give this package to Dedoria to give to Frieza but when I went to his quarters he wasn't there. Do you know where I can find him?"

"Now why on Vegeta-sei would Vegeta want to give Frieza a package?" Velta asked. Bulma didn't know how to answer, she didn't know the reason herself.

"It's not from Vegeta," She started, grabbing Vegeta in her sight. He sat on a bench slouched over like a small child, bored with the day. Bulma was grabbed into a trance again and forgot what she was saying. Rei looked in the direction of her eye sight but didn't get a clear view of what she was looking at. She waved her hand in front of her eyes to bring her back.

"Hello Bulma, are you there?" She asked. Bulma glanced back at Rei, then shut her eyes tight and shook her head.

"Sorry, I was, side tracked I guess." Rei stared blankly into her eyes.

"Well, please continue with what you were saying Bulma."

"Yeah that. Um, what exactly was I saying?" She asked. Rei growled and placed both hands on Bulma's shoulders and brought her vision to hers.

"Who is the package from?" She asked. Bulma glanced down at her hands and noticed she had dropped it on the ground as she was slipping out of this world. She hurried to pick it up and blushed a bit from embarrassment.

"It's from King Vegeta. I don't know exactly what's in it so, I got to go now." Bulma hurried away from the two women and walked clear across the garden. Velta grew confused at what happened. She looked at the direction of where her eye sight was moments before, but only saw her son. Rei scratched her head in confusion.

"What's wrong with her today? Something obviously has her mind somewhere."

"Yeah, something. Rei, lets go inside. Lunch is coming up and Vegeta should be back soon from training to eat." Velta started her way in but Rei stood on the brick road path in the garden.

"Bulma what is up with you today?" She asked herself. She then started off, knowing she wasn't going to get a clear cut answer from talking to herself.

"Here, I was ordered to give this to Dedoria but I can't seem to find him anywhere, so since you're right there next to Frieza I figured that you can give it to him." Bulma handed Zarbon the package and watched as he inspected it. After Bulma had left Velta and Rei, she ran into Zarbon near the castle entrance. Zarbon tucked the package underneath his arm and smiled.

"Thank You, I'll be sure to get it to him right away. Who is it from anyway?" He asked her.

"I was sent by Vegeta to give it to Dedoria to give to Frieza."

"Really? Hmm, what would Vegeta want to give to Frieza I wonder."

"Oh, it's not FROM Vegeta. I was just sent to give it to Dedoria from him. It's really from King Vegeta. I don't know what it is so please do not ask me that question." Zarbon nodded towards the young woman.

"Okay, now I see." Things got quiet between the two for a short time, but Bulma coughed to bring the silence to an end.

"So what business do you have out here Zarbon?" She wondered why he was here, seeing that he never really comes here unless it's a major emergency. Zarbon looked at her after eyeing the package.

"Frieza wanted to know if King Vegeta could lend him some Saya-jins for a small mission he has planned up." Bulma nodded and sighed.

"Well King Vegeta is training at the moment, so if it would be at all possible to come at a later time, or I'll ask him for you."

"No woman, I think I could ask him myself. I'll stop by later." Zarbon started off towards the entrance of the castle gates and turned to Bulma once again as she stood on the path seeing him off. He nodded towards her and exited the yard. Bulma sighed greatly and started off towards the tower where her room stayed. Walking by Vegeta, who was glaring at her, she didn't take any notice to him and continued off. Vegeta growled as he sat on the bench with one arm on the top of the seat and his body turned. He then turned his attention to the gates that Zarbon just left through. He growled again and turned his body fully around and crossed his arms.

"Zarbon," He said. He glared out at the city and pondered all of his thoughts, mainly about watching Bulma and Zarbon have their little discussion.

Ooo, is Vegeta just a little, I don't know, jealous? Maybe. Maybe not. What could be in that package? Lets only wonder. Stay tuned for the next chapter.
