Timeskip. (Sorry I'm doing that often. Nothing actually happens after.)
Third person POV
The weekend is over and the end of the school day. With much joy, the gang walk back home, a habit that they developed weeks ago.
"Hey guys, who wants ice cream? It was pretty hot today" 18 suggests.
"Ice cream sounds heavenly right now!" Bulma replies.
So they walk to the ice cream parlor and get their ice cream. They decide to sit under a tree that wasn't far from the parlor. While continuing their chat, a specific someone kept observing the blue haired girl sitting next to Goku. They were there till the sun started to set.
" we should head home guys, the sun's setting." Amanda states.
With that statement, they call it a day, breaking up at that one junction. Bulma and the twins go one way, Krillin and Turn go anther route, Chichi and Amanda how another way and the wait and find a dark alley for Goku to inter transmission without questions.
Bulma's pov
"I'm glad your mum allowed you to spend the night tho". 18 says as I walk out of the bathroom in my pyjamas. We had just gotten home and mum allowed me to be with 18 tonight.
"Yeah, dad's really busy and mum's helping too" I lay on her bed and brought out my sleeping mask and my phone from my bag.
"At least I won't be alone tonight"
"But you have 17"
"Yeah, bit he's always in his room. He does come occasionally to check on me. Like I'm some kid"
Suddenly, there's a knock on the door. Speak of the devil I think. 17 walks into the room, walking up to 18 and pats her head.
"How's it going girls?"
"Were good 17" I reply
"You know you don't have to keep coming here every 5 minutes to check on me. I'm not your little sister or something" 18 says rather harshly
17 ignores her statements and pecked her head.
"You two sleep well okay? If you need anything, I'm just across the hall".
"Yeah yeah, now get out of my room please?" She says, more annoyance in her voice. Honestly i can't understand why she's so upset.
17 smiles then frowns as he walks out if the room.
"Girl, don't you think that was kinda harsh? I mean he was just checking up on you? I think that was really thoughtful of him" I blurt out
"Yeah, but it gets annoying when he's doing it too much. I mean I'm not his little sister or his kid or something."
"Yeah, but still, he still cares. It'll be nice to have a brother caring about me like that. Don't get me wrong, I love being the only child, but sometimes it gets lonely and I have no sibling to love and spoil".
17 sighs laying down on her side of the bed. She ruffles her hair in frustration
"Now you're making me feel bad."
"I didn't do anything girl. Just go apologize to him. He felt kinda hurt after you said those mean things"
"You know what?" She says getting up from her lying position "yeah, I will go apologize to him. He doesn't really deserve the treatment i gave him. I just needed my space for sometime, ya know?" She stands up and walks out of the room.
18's pov
What Bulma said got me thinking maybe I was a bit to harsh on my approach. I feel kinda bad but I'm nervous to enter his room. I've been standing there for 2 minutes. I was going to know but he opened his door. He looked like he was going out.
"Hey, what's up" he asks me, a hint of nervousness in his voice.
"I just wanted to apologize. I know you were just trying to care about me like a brother should and I lashed out at you. You don't deserve that."
"Hey, its okay. I understand. You're not a little girl anymore. You need your space and I get it. Don't worry. I wasn't angry or anything okay?"
"Thanks. Where to tho? Its almost 9pm?"
"Im just going for a little walk. I've been feeling lazy lately and I just want to walk around and enjoy the scenery and the breeze" he sighs
I dont believe a thing he just said, but I'll let him be. Besides, he just got yelled at by his own twin. I'll give him space.
"Okay then, but be careful."
"I will. Don't worry" he replies and leaves. I go back to my room where Bulma is on her phone. Only Kami knows what she's doing there.
"So how did it go?" She asks sitting up
"Better than I imagined actually. He forgave me. And he's going out. "
"This late?"
"He said he needed to walk around a bit. I trust him. Whatever he's doing, isn't evil and he'll eventually tell me." I lay down beside her. A comfortable silent filled the room for a while, both on our phones, until Bulma let out a soft giggle.
"Girl who got you smiling like that?" I speak up. She tosses her phone under the pillow and tries to keep a neutral face.
"Hmp, no one" she coughs out. I know too well that she's lying , and I'm gonna tease her about it.
"Is it Vegeta?"
Silence
"IT IS VEGETA!!!" I yell
"N-no it isn't. Its j-just a meme I saw? Yes, its just a meme I saw."
"Liar"
"I'm not"
"Okay okay" I laugh.
Silence
"Wanna talk about boys?" She suddenly asks
"I mean, sure , why not?" I shrug
"I think Krillin likes you!" She said randomly
I blush "what? No. He doesn't"
"Girl I see the way he looks at you"
"He looks at me?" I ask curiously and hopefully
"Yeah. And me and Goku are his best friends. He talks about you non stop girl" she giggles as I feel my face heat up.
"Really?" She nods. "I gotta admit, I kinda like him too" I say honestly
"Seriously???!!" I nod
"I think he's pretty cute and funny. We don't spend much time together though. I think he sees me as a weirdo."
"What!? Its actually the other way around. He thing you sew him a a weird person coz of, ya know, his traits?"
"Wait, seriously? I think he's cute that way" I state
"Sooooo, if he asks you out?" She asks, eyebrow raised
"It's a yes from me. I want to get to know him better. On the matter of boys, there's Vegeta....."
"Okay okay!! I think I have a little crush on him." Bulma cuts me off
"A little crush on him" I mimick her
"Hey!" She playfully hits my shoulder ( I low key forgot how to spell that)
"I admit it okay, I like Vegeta" she sighs
"I think he likes you too from what I see" I say, my finger on my chin in a thinking motion
"How does he look at me?"
"Like he's staring at the most beautiful being alive". She blushes
"Okay enough boy talk!! I'm sleepy"
"Or you just want to escape this topic?" I smirk at her
Before she could reply there's a knock on my door. 17's head pops in.
"I'm back"
"Alright, good night" I reply as he closes the door.
"I'll let this slide for now. I'm not done teasing you" I smirk at her. She sighs and lays down. I turn off the lamp that was lighting up the room.
"Goodnight Blue"
"Night, 18"
As i try to sleep, my thoughts couldn't help but wander to what Bulma said. Krillin actually likes me? There's no way. I sigh in satisfaction, thinking about him as I let sleep take me away.
