The love of two women; the heart of one man. Chapter Eight

~*~ Last time ~*~

Vegeta's head started spinning. This was surreal. He had just been kissed and fought over by the only two women that he could safely say he loved.

"What's it going to be, Vegeta?" Bulma asked placing her hands on her hips.

Everyone, not just Vegeta, was awestruck. What the hell was he going to do now?

"We were meant to be, Vegeta!" Terra lobbied. "You're my Vege-Kins."

Vegeta looked over at Bulma. "No!" Bulma yelled. "We were meant to be!" Challenged Bulma back at Terra.

Then when the anger seemed its highest, emotions at their maximum, the girls hollered at Vegeta in unison.

"CHOOSE!"

And then for the first time in his life, Vegeta was speechless.

~*~

After a few moments Vegeta was brought back to reality, he thought that he had been dreaming. But then as he thought about it he noticed that this was real and soon he would have to answer both Bulma and Terra. He stood before them, saying nothing.

Terra watched as Vegeta eyed her, she knew he was going to chose her. How and why would he choose that bitch Bulma? He didn't even know her! Sure they had gone to the same school for a few years and her best friend's boy friend was Vegeta's best friend. But he still didn't know Bulma! He hadn't even talked to her, or so Terra thought. In her perfect world within her mind she knew that Vegeta would pick her. After all, he loved her for three goddamned years. He had known Bulma for no more than a week, if even that long.

Bulma did the same as Terra, watch as Vegeta stared at her. She stood with Chi-Chi and Goku along with Juuhachi-gou behind her, as Vegeta glanced at her indifferently. He was being very careful not to give any one of those girls hope of `winning'. Bulma wondered what could have been going through his mind. She sighed; Juuhachi-gou had warned her that Vegeta wasn't the type of boy to be messed with. He loved them then dumped them and moved on. She thought herself a fool to think that he would love her. Although she had accepted that he most likely wouldn't love her back, but what hurt was that she loved him so much and didn't know him at all. She didn't know if it was human or even possible, to love someone so quickly, but then again, she was living proof.

Vegeta still stood evaluating the girls before him. He turned to his shoulder, noting that the group of people was still there, watching his every move.

"What the hell are you guys looking at?" He screamed.

No one said a word.

"Leave!" He yelled.

The coach walked up to him. "Vegeta, girls, I think that the three of you should go inside and work this out." He suggested.

Vegeta narrowed his eyes. "Maybe, old man."

Vegeta walked before the two, Bulma the last one to follow. Before she could enter the gym Chi-Chi grabbed a hold of her arm, Juuhachi-gou close behind.

"Bulma." Chi-Chi said taking her friend into a hug.

The blue-haired did nothing; she only accepted the hug. "What are you going to do?" Chi-Chi asked.

Bulma sniffed silently. "I don't know." She admitted earnestly.

Juuhachi-gou shook her head. "I don't know why all of a sudden you have become so dependent on Vegeta." Juuhachi-gou mused mostly to herself.

Goku nodded his head in agreement. "I know that you have some kind of `thing' for him but honestly Bulma, you're never like that." Said Goku.

Bulma lifted her head up from the hug. "I-I'm not dependent." Bulma lied; she couldn't tell her friends what happened between her and Vegeta. Bulma knew that if she told them they would never let her live it down. Although she had let something of the nature slip out of her mouth in the heated argument with Terra she wasn't going tell them up front what she had meant by it.

"Well whatever is going on between you, Terra and that pain in the ass you two were fighting about, needs to be settled." Juuhachi-gou insisted, slicing through Bulma's thoughts. "Or I might have to take matters into my own hands." She added with a dry laugh, cracking her knuckles.

Chi-Chi smiled sinisterly. "I'm going to have to agree with Juuhachi-gou on this one. If that bitch Terra knows what's good for her she'll want to squash this shit as soon as possible."

Goku shook his head in disagreement. "I think that Bulma should just give up." Goku muttered.

Everyone turned to him.

"Nani?" He asked them as their eyes droned upon him.

Chi-Chi walked over to her boyfriend. "Son-Kun, baby, let us take care of this." Chi-Chi suggested referring to Juuhachi-gou and herself.

"I'm going to go in there." Bulma said softly, not giving a damn if anyone heard her or not.

"Bulma please!" Chi-Chi took hold of Bulma's arm once more. "Think this over."

Bulma glanced at Chi-Chi uninterestedly; she knew what she had to do and nothing that Chi-Chi or Juuhachi-gou could say would stop her from it. Chi-Chi released Bulma's arm once taking note of the look in Bulma's eyes. Chi-Chi sighed.

"Why him?" She asked delicately.

Bulma smiled tenderly. "Oh Chi, if I were to tell you..." Bulma paused. "You'd think me a fool."

"If you do love him that much then go after him." Chi-Chi advised.

Juuhachi-gou seconded that. "I agree. Go get him." She said with a pat on Bulma's shoulder.

Bulma turned to her friends one last time and then ran into the gym where she had seen Vegeta and Terra enter.

Upon her entrance to the gym she saw Terra sitting on the bottom bleacher with Vegeta standing about twenty feet away from her. Vegeta had his deep ebony eyes fixed on the grown below him as if the ground was the most interesting thing in the world. The sound from Bulma slamming the door open and closed brought both Vegeta and Terra into the real world. They both gazed at her for two very different reasons.

"I just want to finish this." Bulma said equally to Vegeta and Terra.

"Then leave!" Terra said getting up. "He's mine!"

"I don't believe so!" Bulma counteracted.

"He don't want you bitch!" Terra yelled much louder than before.

Just as Bulma was going to scream back at Terra, Vegeta decided that he had heard enough and that it was his turn to do the yelling.

"Listen you two, I can very well speak for myself." He declared hushing Bulma and Terra into an intense silence.

Once Bulma and Terra were silent, Vegeta continued to speak.

"Allow me to decide with whom I shall stay with." Vegeta muttered emotionlessly.

Terra stiffened, something was telling her that her chances were slim. Bulma did the same, she felt as if she were going to be betrayed again.

"Terra," Vegeta began sauntering over to her.

The other girl smiled at Bulma in triumph, Bulma merely shook her head.

"Terra." Vegeta whispered.

Terra's smile widened. She let a few seconds pass before she lunged herself into Vegeta's arms. "Vegeta I love you so much."

Vegeta shook his head. "I can't."

Bulma held in her urge to laugh.

"NANI?! What the fucking Kami do you mean you can't?!" Terra yelled pulling out of Vegeta's arms.

Vegeta smirked. "What it sounds like, Terra."

At those words Bulma ran to him, full speed, pushing Terra out of the way.

"You can't possibly love her!" Terra tried to convince herself. "You don't even know her."

"I don't need to know her right now. I'll get to know her better," Vegeta paused. "Now that she's my woman."

Terra let her jaw drop.

"Close you mouth bitch." Bulma advised. "You might catch a fly."

Vegeta laughed.

"I hate you Vegeta!" Terra yelled in utter falsehood. "Take this shit, I don't need you!" Terra yelled raising her hand to her chest and snapping a chair off of her neck, and then she left, storming out of the gym.

Vegeta caught the thrown item with ease, Bulma watched as he looked down at it. It was a thin golden chain, very simply, very delicate. There was a modest diamond at the end of the gold string that shimmered in the light of the gym. He held it in his palm tightly until his knuckles underneath his gloves were white due to the tight grip. He shut his eyes closed with just an equal amount of force trying his best to erase Terra's smiling face from his memories.

"You really felt for her, didn't you?" Bulma gambled by asking.

Vegeta gave no answer; he only kept his eyes closed as he held Bulma in one hand and the chain in the other. Vegeta opened his eyes suddenly, then looked down at the chain he held in his hand. Without thinking twice he plunged it towards the back of the gym letting it sore threw the sky until it fell on to the ground with a deep thump. When it hit Vegeta felt a part of him die and a part of him rise. He smiled an uneven grin of pure evil satisfaction. Bulma, who had watched all of this, was surprised.

"Vegeta, are you going to be ok?"

Vegeta smiled at her and took her lips in to a tempting kiss that could have led them to more again.

"Of course, woman."

Bulma leaned back into his arms.

"Why don't we go back to my place and really get the interview done this time, I need something to turn tomorrow to print for the paper on Monday you know." Bulma suggested.

"I guess I do owe you." Vegeta muttered.

With that they walked out together, Bulma taking a hold of Vegeta's arm. Chi-Chi, Juuhachi-gou and Goku were in shock when Bulma walked out of the gym on Vegeta's arms. But then again they should have seen it coming, when Terra walked out of the gym alone that should have been their hint. Chi-Chi and Juuhachi-gou smiled at each other. Vegeta and Bulma were finally together. With Bulma and Vegeta now with them the group walked out of the school and to their cars, going home for the night.

Terra watched as they pulled out of the driveway. She leaned back on the hood of her car, crossing her legs as she allowed her long black and green hair spilling over her shoulders freely. Lucky for her it covered most of the direly ruined parts of her uniform. Terra knew that once she got home her parents would give her hell about her uniform.

`Fuck that shit.' She thought to herself.

The night had not been in her favor, but she knew that if she played her cards well, everything would go her way. A true poker player knew how to turn a bad hand into a royal flush, and Terra knew that she could do it. Bulma B. Briefs would stand in her way no longer. It was only a matter of time until Bulma folded out of this game and Vegeta was hers for the taking.

`Oh Bulma enjoy him while you can. While you might have won this battle we still have a full war ahead of us.' Terra thought to herself. `And best believe I will win that.'

Just then she laid her frosty blue eyes on an angry Yamcha who was going home for the night as well. Terra's smirk widened. `And I have just the person to help me.'
