When they arrived back at Capsule Corp Bulma quickly gave them all senzu beans. They all recovered from their injuries and Black stood up. Both he and Goku had giant scars on their backs from when MUI turned on them.

"What happened after I was erased?" Caulifla asked Black looking at his scar.

"We both mastered Ultra Instinct and it eventually snapped our spines." Goku explained to her.

"And you still managed to beat Jiren with broken spines?" She asked them with wide eyes, "How durable are you two?"

"Ridiculously so apparently." Black told her while chuckling.

"So are we going to have to fight you again Black?" Vegeta asked him.

"No I think I'm just going to live peacefully from now on." Black assured them.

"Good. Bulma give him a capsule house." Vegeta told her. She dug into her pocket and threw one to him. He caught it and turned to leave.

"Wait before you leave! Can I train with you?" Caulifla asked him.

"I don't see why not." Black said before flying away. She quickly followed behind him. Bulma shook her head at the two.

"I'd put money on those two getting together." Bulma said laughing, "I also may have given him a one bedroom house."

"Probably." Whis agreed while laughing at Bulma's antics. He and Beerus went back to their planet while the rest of them said their goodbyes and went home.

~With Black and Caulifla~

Black threw the capsule on a cliff over looking a lake. A small house appeared from the smoke and they walked in. They looked around the house to get familiar with it until Caulifla heard Black yell in annoyance.

"That woman gave us a house with only one bed!" He told her.

"What are you afraid to share a bed with a girl or something?" Caulifla asked him mockingly. She was worried about it as well.

"Well I'm going to sleep. You can either sleep with me or on the couch I don't care." Black told her while he took off what was left of his gi. She looked at the man that was only in his boxers. She noticed how muscular he was and her face became red. She quickly shook her head and stripped down to her underwear as well before climbing in bed next to him. They both faced away from each other before falling asleep.

~The Next Morning~

Black woke up feeling something soft against him. He looked down to see that Caulifla had ended up sleeping on his chest. He realized what he was feeling was her body pressed against his. He got a slight blush on his face before he quickly forced it away. He had to admit that he was oddly comfortable with her sleeping on him.

Caulifla groaned before opening her eyes and realizing where she had ended up in her sleep. Her head was resting on his chest and she was pressed up against him. She felt that his arm had wrapped itself around her. She looked up to see if he had noticed and her face turned red when she realized that he had woken up before her.

"How long have you been awake?" She asked him.

"For a good few minutes." He told her. Her face got even hotter at that.

"Why didn't you try and move me?" She asked him with the blush still on her face.

"There is one thing I enjoy more than anything," Black explained, "and that's beauty."

"W-what?" Caulifla swore steam was beginning to come out of her ears. Did she just hear him call her beautiful?

"I realized it when your obtained the unmastered UI." Black told her thinking back to his fight with her. The form had beauty to it already but for some reason to him it looked amazing on her.

"It also helps to know that there is a beautiful woman clinging to me." Black told her smirking.

"No one has ever called me beautiful before to be honest." She told him while resting her head on his chest again, "Everyone calls me a brute and a delinquent." For some reason that incited anger in Black. What were these feelings and why did he only have them when it came to her.

"Well originally I was going to use my wish to bring myself back to life." Black told her, "If it weren't for you I would have let all of those universes remain erased. So tell me would a brute have been able to change the mind of a selfish man who cared for nothing but himself?" She was shocked by his words. Had she really been the one to help save him from himself.

"I suppose not." She told him as she yawned. Black chuckled at her. Perhaps he wasn't the only one still fatigued from the tournament.

"If you want to go back to sleep I'm still tired myself." Black told her. He felt her nod and saw that she looked more peaceful. She had fallen asleep again. He smiled before drifting to sleep himself. He was woken back up an hour later to the sound of someone knocking on his front door. He groaned and managed to get out from under Caulifla without waking her. Black walked to the closet and put on a pair of jogging pants before walking to his front door.

"Oh hello Bulma." He greeted her politely as he opened his door.

"Good morning Black." Bulma told him before handing him a box of capsules, "Where's Caulifla at?"

"She's still in bed. Apparently I'm a good pillow." He told her. She knew that her plan would work on the two. "What's in these?"

"Oh I remembered that you seemed to like tea so I'm giving you a lifetime supply of different types. They are color coded for each type. From green tea to more traditional black tea." She explained to him.

"I am indeed a fan of tea. Thank you Bulma." He told her as he tossed one of the green tea capsules on his table. He was glad it wasn't pre-made and came with a nice tea set.

"No problem. I'll let you get back to doing your own thing. Oh before I forget! Here is some Zeni to help you two out." She said as she gave him a case of money and waved goodbye before hopping back into her car. He waved back before closing his door and started making some tea. He noticed the tea didn't have a darker color to it. Caulifla really had changed him after all. He opened the case of money and was in shock. She had given them enough for them to live comfortably for a long time.

"Who was that?" Caulifla asked dressed in her usual clothing.

"That was Vegeta's wife. She brought us an assortment of tea because I enjoy it." Black explained to her as he closed the case.

"Oh I actually enjoy tea as well." Caulifla told him happily, "I haven't been able to have any in a long time though."

Black smiled as he poured them both a cup before sitting down. She thanked him and took a sip.

"Wow you are actually really good at making tea!" She told him and took another sip.

"Thank you." He told her as he thought over how he had met Caulifla. Through a universe deciding tournament hosted by those terrifying Zenos. To think someone who's first words to him were fight me would become a center point in his daily life.

'Strange times indeed.' He thought to himself before smiling at her. She was definitely more civil than the other Saiyans he had met.

"So when do we start training?" She asked him. Black almost hit his head on the table. Maybe only a little more civil.

"After tea and breakfast." He told her before getting up and preparing food for them. She walked up behind him and ran her hand down the scar on his back. He shivered lightly before calming himself down. He wasn't prepared for that. She then hugged him from behind. She had caught him off gaurd again but he didn't stop her.

"Thank you for saving me from erasure. You even broke your own body trying to do so." She thanked him leaning her head against his back.

'It would seem I'm more of a mortal than a god. I am glad for that to be the case.' He thought to himself while smiling.

"If you wouldn't mind," Black began, "I would prefer we start your training tomorrow. My body still aches from the tournament and I know you can't be feeling much better."

"I don't mind because you called my bluff. I'm not in any condition to push my body at the moment." She agreed with him. After breakfast they spent the rest of the day watching TV on their couch with Caulifla leaning on him.
