Capsule Corps. (Morning)

Bulma answers phone. "Hello, Briefs residence."."Hi mom!"."Oh I'm fine!"."Vegeta? He's..fine."."Oh it's nothing. Trust me!"."You and dad want to what?!?"."Oh no! It's no problem. Vegeta and I would love if you guys came over!"."Yeah.one big happy family. As always!"."Okay, bye mom. Love you."

Bulma still hadn't told her parents about her divorce. She knew it would crush them. It would also hurt them that she hadn't told them and they would be constantly asking of her and the kids were all right. They knew about Trunks's departure to boarding school and all but they wanted to come and check out things in Bulma's home.

'I don't want to break their hearts.What will they say if their daughter failed in her marriage and was now a widow?!?' The thought was too heavy a threat in Bulma's mind. Without thinking, she picked up the phone and called Vegeta. Convo:

V= Vegeta, B= Bulma, and G= Gohan

G- Hello? B-Uhm.hello? Who is this? G- Shouldn't I be asking you that? B- *gasp* Gohan?!? G- Bulma? B-Can you put Vegeta on the phone? Pronto?!? G-Uhm.he's in the shower right now. B-Well tell him to get out now! Go in and hand him the phone! I'm sure you've ALREADY seen him naked. G-*with attitude* And what's that suppose to mean?!? B-Urg! Just put him on the phone! . V-Hello? B-Vegeta! What the hell is Gohan doing at your place this early in the morning?!? Don't tell me that you guys.uhm.you knowed. V-I don't see how this is any of your business! Did you just call to harass me or ask a question of importance? B-I need you Vegeta. V-What do you mean? B-I need you back here at the house.Only for a week! I promise! V-Are you mad?!? I have a job and my own life to live! And why do you need me anyway? B-*sigh* My parents are spending the week at the house. V-How does this concern me? B-I never told them we were divorced! Okay?!? V-Why the hell not?!? B-I don't want to let my parents find out that I'm a failure as a wife! *starts crying* V-Calm down.What do I have to do? B-All you have to do id pretend that we're still married.which requires you to sleep over here. You can still go to work though. V-Fine.

Bulma was now very pleased and ran upstairs to get her precious Bra (hehe) ready for her grandparent's arrival.

Vegeta's apartment- (after call)

Vegeta sighed as he went into his room to start packing. He had almost forgotten about Gohan's presence.

"Hello?" Gohan waved a hand in the air to catch his attention and then placed his hands on his hips. "What was that all about?"

"I have to go and spend the week at Bulma's house just so her parents won't find out that we're divorced." Vegeta sighed as he was now going to the bathroom to get his bathroom necessities.

"What?!? But you can't! this isn't even your fault that she didn't tell her parents! I don't see why you have to go! Just call her up and tell her that it's out of your hands!" Gohan looked at Vegeta who was now coming close to him.

"Listen Gohan, I know that Bulma and I aren't married anymore but I still love her, just not the way I love you. More like a friend if anything." He kissed Gohan's soft lips." I have to do this, as a friend. I will get to see you and it's only for a week."

Vegeta went to take a shower as Gohan sat on his bed and gazed out the window. 'Why do you have to go? They're going to find out soon enough! Think about our relationship! You're putting it on hold.' he was so into his thoughts that he did not hear Vegeta come out of the bathroom and start to get dressed.

"You can stay here if you like," Vegeta offered "just don't go having any wild parties. At least without me." He smiled but the young saiyan only looked at him with eyes that asked 'Why are you doing this to me? Can't you see you're my world?'

Vegeta looked away and grabbed his coat. Gohan rushed up to him and said "Vegeta, I love you and if this is what you want to do...then I'm happy. Just don't forget that you have a boyfriend that would fight for you if you were ever in trouble." Gohan smiled as their lips met in a passionate kiss.

"I love you Gohan." Vegeta walked out the door.

Capsule Corps.

Vegeta opened the door of his former home, walked inside and went upstairs to unpack. He knew Bulma was in the kitchen but he'd say his hello later. After he finished unpacking, he hid the suitcase and headed for his daughter's room. He picked her up which sent her arms flying around his neck and almost singing, "I missed you papa! Where did you go?"

"I went away for awhile Bra but I'm back now so I don't want to hear you saying anything about me leaving. Understood?" Bra nodded as she was set back down on her bed. Vegeta kissed her forehead and headed back downstairs.

"Hey there." Bulma beamed as Vegeta entered the kitchen. She noticed Vegeta looking around constantly. "Nothing burning here. I've gotten better."

He sat down and held his head in his hands, "How long do we have to do this?"

"Until my parents leave. About a week." Bulma started to set the food on the table for her parent's advent. "Lunch is almost ready, you should go and grab Bra.

Vegeta went upstairs to grab his giggling daughter. He went down stairs and quickened his pace as he heard the doorbell ring.

Vegeta went to answer it, Bra still in his arms.

"Gran!" Bra jumped from Vegeta's arms and into Mrs. Briefs's. "Mommy made lunch!"

"Oh she did, did she? Well let's go see!" Before heading to the kitchen she gave Vegeta a slight hug and was on her way.

Dr. Briefs shook Vegeta's hand and said "Glad to see you and my daughter together still after all these years." Not many years but okay.

Vegeta sighed as he closed the door. He heard a lot of commotion, mostly hugging and "Wow you look fantastic!'s"

"This is going to be a long week." Vegeta neared the kitchen, dreading every inch.
