When They Collide

Friends

Chiwa's POV
After Vegeta kicks Kitsune out of the room, he locks the door and looks at me. Actually bright eyed. He walks to me. "How did you get the ring off??" He exclaims, looking amazed. "It wasn't easy, I can tell you that. I chipped off a piece of butter and-" I try to start, but get cut off. Vegeta waves his hand saying, "Yeah, yeah. You got it off and that's all that matters." he says relieved and happy. Then his smile fades into a frown. He becomes uneasy and...shaken? The hard, badass, Prince of all Saiyans, was actually nervous?? Okay, I could get used to this. "Something...the matter?" I ask him. He turns to sit on the edge of the bed. He then looks down to the ground. "I don't know if I can go through with this." he says. Wait...WHAT? Why am I yelling that in my head? "Wait...WHAT???" I yell. Okay, now that was loud. Hopefully, the two didn't hear outside. "After everything that had just happened? Including it getting stuck on me and me having to lather my finger with butter to get it to slide off??? For nothing???" I further exclaim, pacing the room back and forth. He sits there unmoving. Really? Nothing? He's gonna force me to have a friendly moment with him, isn't he? Ah, fine. Okay. I walk towards the bed and sit beside him. I start to move my hand, then stop. Holding it raised, I wonder if I should. Ah, hell. Why not? I proceed patting his back. "Look, I know you feel nervous. It's a pretty damn giant step forward, but look whom you're doing it for. You and Kitsune love each other and I can see that. You even fought for your claim on her because you didn't want her to be taken away. If I know her, she'd do the same over you. It's a girls' thing, I know. But if you truly cherish her, like I know you do, I...believe in you." I try and cheer him up, giving him friendly advice. Vegeta, my friend? It's kind of nice. "But," I start, whilst holding my finger up, "if you dare hurt her and make her life miserable, I WILL come after you. I promise that." I say with a giggle and giving one more pat on his back. He picks his head up and turns to face me. "Geez, Kitsune sure is lucky to have you in her life. I guess I am...too." he says as if thinking about it. I give another chuckle. "Yeah, we're getting there." I say smiling. I jump up off the bed, grasping both my hands together. "Alright! So when you giving her the ring??" I ask him. He stands up from the bed as well. "I'm actually gonna wait two days from now. On the day when you and Lea have your date, so I can have the whole apartment to just ourselves." he explains. Date? Oh yeah! Last night's conversation. Lea has plans tomorrow, I wonder what they are. Hmmm... Should agent Chiwa do some reconaissance? "Alright! Sounds good. Now let's go ahead and eat before the wondering minds wonder what I'm doing in your room alone with you for too long." I say in a teasing way. "Whatever!! Don't get your hopes up. I'm only ever interested in Kit." he says all embarrassed. "Oh, believe me. I know." I say with a smile. With that, we unlock the door and leave the room, leading ourselves to the smell of food.
