A/N: This is full of Yamcha bashing, so if you do like Yamcha please do not read this. Yamcha is OOC. This is an A/U. No space travel, or aliens. just really strong men.
Summary: What happens when your boyfriend raises his hands to you? What happens when your over protective best friend finds out? The one who you thought you loved was really your downfall, and the one you thought didn't want anything to do with you becomes your hero.

It wasn't fair.
I always thought we would be in love. I always thought he would be there and care for me.
I never knew how wrong I would be.
My jaw ached, my tongue was swollen along with my left cheek. My left eye was swollen shut and bruised. It hurt smile, it hurt to frown. I cried because of what happened. I cried because of the pain. I cried harder because of heartbreak.
I would have to skip classes for the next few weeks until the black and blue marks vanished.
I'd have to make up another excuse for my absence to make my friends believe me and I'd have to force them not to come visit me.
I'd just make up some story about how I caught some flu bug.
It would be easy to convince Juu, Chi and Goku. I worried about Vegeta. He would be the hardest to convince to stay away from me for awhile.
Sitting alone in my empty dark apartment, I continued to cry. I sobbed until my back hurt. I was enough pain and I couldn't care less. I wanted to pass out, fade into a world of dreams.
Slip out of reality, and forget about the pain, forget about Yamcha. Forget about everything.
Dreams was what I now lived for, because life just seemed to be overwhelming.
I tried to break up with Yamcha this time. Vegeta had sat me down and convinced me that I could do better. We met in the University's Library for a study session.
He did the talking while I just listened to him.
"You've caught him cheating on you multiple times."
"You haven't even been dating the guy for a year yet."
"He's too possessive and controlling of you. He gets angry at you even if you hang out with Chi-Chi!"
"You are not happy Blue. Your eyes have been dull after the first two months you started to date him."
"He forgets about the plans you both make and leaves you at your apartment without a call while he fucks some other bitch."
"Blue don't cry. He just isn't the one for you. We're all worried for you."
"I care about you, Blue. You're hurting and its hurting me."
"If you can't tell me what's going between you too I'll find out myself. And you will not like that Blue. Trust me."
"If our friendship means anything to you, you will do something about this Blue."
"He is ruining you. He is your disease. The life in you is fading away."
"I can't let you fade away Blue."
I sat there and let the tears fall as Vegeta continued to rant about my life, how I've been acting and how he hates Yamcha.
I thought I loved Yamcha, I really did. But I tried to break up with him. And he didn't like that. And he wanted to make sure I never tried it again with him.
I bit my lip at the memories. The yelling, the insults, the hitting, the pain. I was fortunate enough that he didn't try to force himself on me. That would have killed my spirit completely.
In the beginning of our relationship, I told him I was a virgin. Which wasn't true at all.
I had sex, multiple times. Only with one person.
And when Yamcha found out who that person was, and that I was lying to him, everything went downhill from there.
He didn't want me around Vegeta anymore.
He didn't want me in that 'enviroment' as he would call it. Around Chi, Juu or Goku.
He would get angry with me if I did hang around them and he found out about it. He would normally yell at me and that would be the end of it. But if he found out I hung around with Vegeta he would grab my arms til they bruised or shove me against a wall.
Because of the fear I had for Yamcha, I never slept with him.
Which is why he cheated.
It's all my fault. If I was honest with him, none of this would have happened.
That's what he would scream at me. At some points, I would believe him.
My phone vibrated in my purse.
Sighing, I took a deep breath trying to calm myself down.
Reaching into my phone, I was glad that there was only one vibration. Which meant I wouldn't have to talk to anyone over the phone directly.
Checking my inbox I saw Vegeta had texted me.
Chi-Chi got a call from Yamcha's neighbor about some yelling, crying and screaming going on. And something about your face being swollen. I'm coming over. Be ready for me. I know you're home, and I have the fucking spare key. Even if you barricade the doors, I will break in Blue. You can't hide this anymore, not from me.
I heard a car door slam as I finished reading. Knowing Vegeta he probably drove way over the speed limit. Which was normal for the him when he was angry. Really, really angry.
Not bothering to move, or pick myself from the ground I heard a someone pushing a key into the locked doorknob and unlocked it.
The door swung open and Vegeta stormed in, slamming the door behind him with force. I hid my face from him. Starting to cry once again as he ran over to me.
"Jesus fucking Christ Blue! What the fuck did he do to you?!" Vegeta whispered as he gently grabbed my chin, inspecting my injuries.
I was sobbing harder now as I pushed myself into his warm chest. His strong arms wrapped around me as he kissed my forehead.
Why? Why did now did I realize that I should have just been with Vegeta. We should have gotten over our prides and just stayed together. We we're both so young, sixteen sleeping all day and staying up all night together.
We knew each other since childhood and he always protected me. Chi-Chi and Goku grew up the in the same neighborhood and Juu we met in middle school.
Vegeta and I never officially dated each other. It was just on and off sex. But he was never with anyone else. In fact, he never dated anyone throughout high school. Neither did I until we came here to go to college.
That when I started to get ideas that Vegeta and I were just some one night stands and that's it, nothing to it. No future together.
When I told my friends and Vegeta about Yamcha, they seemed greatly concerned. Vegeta seemed angry with me. He ignored me for the longest time.
It took me to get beaten by some jack ass to realize who I really loved, and who I should be with.
"Geta," I started to whisper as he picked me up bridal style and brought me into the bathroom,"I'm sorry."
"Shut up Blue. There's no reason to be sorry. You don't fucking deserve this. He does not fucking deserve you. Did you at least end it?" He growled out, placing me on the toilet with the closed lid for me to sit upon.
He opened up the medicine cabinet and pulled out the first aid, "I tried too. Vegeta I really tried." I started to cry again, memories flooded my head.
"Stop it Blue. Your stronger then this." Vegeta took out some ointment and a cotton ball, he lightly dabbed the ointment on the cotton ball and then applied it to my face, I winced at the slight pain and Vegeta pressed his lips against my forehead.
My chest fluttered with butterflies.
Yes.
I did love Vegeta, I always have. And I was stupid enough to ruin everything.
"Vegeta. I am sorry, I should have never dated him. I should have listened to you. I'm sorry I should have, I should have.." I whispered as Vegeta pressed his finger against my lips.
"Stop feeling sorry for yourself. No matter what I have told you, even if you did not listen to me you still did not deserve this." He growled finishing up with the cotton ball and throwing it in the trash bin.
"Vegeta, listen. I, should have put aside everything and just went with my heart."
"Look I don't know what you're blubbering about Blue but save your breath and rest." Vegeta said as he lifted me once again bridal style and carried me into my bedroom. He gently placed me onto my bed and pressed his lips again to my forehead.
He walked over to my dresser, "Cats?" I snapped my head up to look at him, and then realizing what he meant I answered him, "Yes please."
He brought back a pair of pajamas, a tank top and a pair of light pants. White and covered with black cats. Vegeta had bought me that pair for my seventeenth birthday.
I always wanted a cat, a black one specifically, but I was severely allergic. So Vegeta would find whatever he could that was close enough to a black cat.
I let out a small giggle when I saw the pair in his hand and he let out a small smirk.
"Get dressed. Kakarot is on his way and should be here any second. He will stay here with Chi to look after you." He said with a dark look in his eyes, he turned and started to walk out of my room.
"Vegeta," I called out softly, "You know I never slept with him right?"
He turned his head back, "Good. You might have caught some disease from that bastard."
"Like I said, I should have went with my heart. My heart is with you Geta." I whispered softly.
Vegeta let out a grunt and continued to walk into the living room.
I undressed myself and then changed into my soft cat pajamas.
I walked out into the living room where Vegeta had his arms crossed and was leaning against the wall looking outside the window. "Kakarot is here. I'll be back later. Get back in bed Blue."
"Where are you going Vegeta?" I asked as Goku knocked on the door and Vegeta opened it for them.
Goku walked inside without saying a word, he wore a serious expression on his face. Chi-Chi ran over to me and gave me a huge hug and talked in my ear. I ignored her as I stared at Vegeta as he stared right back.
"Vegeta, where are you going?" I asked again stepping forward. Goku reached out his arm, blocking me from moving any further towards Vegeta and the front door. I was surprised by his actions.
Vegeta looked at me with a dark look, "I'm going to go give that fucking bastard what he deserves."
"Geta, please don't!" I whispered, my eyes burned from the fresh tears.
"And why should I not go Blue?! Give me one god damn reason not to go." Vegeta yelled as he punched the hallway wall.
I let out a cry and winced, covering my ears and dropping to the floor.
"Just by me punching the wall you freak out like I'm going to beat you. That's how damaged you are. It's all because of him damn it! Why can't you see that!" Vegeta shouted.
"Be-because he loves me." I said in-between sobs.
"Bulma, Yamcha does not love you." Chi-Chi walked over to me and gave me a soft warm hug. She ran her fingers through my hair calming me down. My sobs came to a stop, as my friends sat in silence.
"Bulma. Listen to me," Goku spoke with concern, "I love Chi-Chi with all my heart and soul. But this, what Yamcha does to you is wrong. It is not love."
"But-" I started to say but was cut off.
"But nothing Bulma! Listen to me!" Goku started to yell,"what Chi-Chi and I share is love, what Yamcha does with you is wrong! Vegeta and I are men Bulma. And men do not fucking hit their loved ones out of anger, spite or jealousy!" Gokue was seething, I was frightened because in all the years I've known him he was never this angry.
Vegeta walked over to Goku and put his hand on Goku's shoulder to calm him down. It worked slightly as Goku's face started to relax.
"Bulma, we're worried about you, your state of mind, and your health and safety." Chi-Chi said softy.
I nodded. They are right, they have always been right. I let out a deep sigh as I tried to calm myself down once again.
"I must go. I will return later tonight. Kakarot makes sure nothing happens to her." Vegeta said while walking out the door and slamming it shut. Goku locked the door behind him.
Chi-Chi grabbed my arms as lightly as she could, helping me stand on my feet. "Come on Bu-Bu, you need some rest. Vegeta will take care of everything and you won't have to suffer anymore." She whispered as Goku came up behind me and picked me up in his arms bridal style.
I didn't like the feeling, I wished it was Vegeta holding me instead, carrying me into my room.
Goku put me down on my bed as Chi-Chi covered me with my fuzzy black blanket. She walked over tot he television and turned on some movie channel and lowered the volume so it wasn't blasting.
"Thanks Chi." I whispered as my eyes grew heavy.
Chi-Chi turned off the light to my bedroom and looked back at me, "don't thank us Bu-Bu, we're your friends. We will always be here for you." She smiled and closed the door softy behind her.
I nuzzled into my down feathered pillow. Taking in a deep breath, I waited for the darkness to take over.
