Chapter Text
Tights took pulls of her drink through her straw until nothing but ice was left and the obnoxious sound of suction could be heard, but the blaring bass beat of the music covered it. She looked around the club, watching bodies move against each other as though they were engaged in sexual exploits through their thin clothing and she released her straw to sigh heavily. She put her drink down and glanced over at the bar where her friend, Raditz, was supposed to get her another drink. Tights couldn’t stop the pang in her chest when saw him talking with a beautiful blonde woman in a tight green dress, his charming smile ever present on his lips and heated interest in his eyes. A look that he never regarded her with. He was very engaged in his conversation with the woman and Tights knew that she had been forgotten. She blinked to keep the sting of tears from forming in her eyes and she reached for her phone to check the time. It was only eight o’clock on Valentine’s night and she was very much alone. She thought about texting her sister, Bulma, but she knew that she was busy with her fiance, Vegeta.
Tights took another peek at Raditz to see that he was still immersed in his conversation and she wiped the corner of her eye where a single tear had managed to escape. She came here with Raditz since they both didn’t have any dates and celebrate as a “fuck you” to Valentine’s Day; however, she should have known that he would walk out of here with a different woman on his arm. And she would be back at her apartment, drinking the wine she had saved in her fridge and eating her favorite ice cream as she sat in her bathtub, listening to heavy rock music to cover up her sobs.
She felt her phone vibrate in her hands and she looked down at her new message.
I miss you.
Tights swallowed hard.
It was her on-and-off again boyfriend, Zamasu.
Her thumb circled the screen as she debated whether she should reply. He was most likely feeling lonely, and drinking expensive wine in his high-rise apartment. Thinking about her.
Tights looked again and saw that Raditz had settled in the stool beside the gorgeous blonde and she made her decision.
I miss you too.
Tights waited for his reply and it came quickly.
Come over?
She took a calming breath, her heart thundering that she shouldn’t give in to him, but as she made another glance at Raditz to find him going in to kiss the woman with gentle lips… she knew what she would do.
I’ll be over soon.
