If there is something she loves about her husband, it's his hands. Bulma has always admired how soft his hands actually are.
But with him wearing his gloves whenever he fights, it comes as no surprise.
The bedroom door opens and she hears the soft padding of his steps approaching. She looks up from her book to see him undressing, her eyes locking on his hands and she smiles. Without a word he steps into their en suite bathroom.
Bulma sits up with her back against the headboard, pulling her legs up till her thighs are pressed to her chest and listens to the running water.
After 15 minutes it stops and it's quiet then, she knows he must be drying himself off. Finally he steps back into the bedroom and she lets her eyes roam over his body before his lands on hers. He smirks.
"Enjoying yourself, woman?" He asks and she nods with a sultry smile.
"With you as husband, always." In no time he's in front of her in their bed, in all his naked glory, pulling her in for a bruising kiss.
"Hmmm Vegeta...." She moans, smiling into the kiss before reaching for his hands. He pulls away and stares at her as she admires and plays with his hands.
"What is your obsession with them?"
"Well.... I just like how soft they are, even though you punch a lot of things or people whenever you fight, you also still have the ability to be gentle with me and our kids. I think that's nice and says a lot about you, Vegeta." She explains, tracing the lines in his palm. "Mine are just rough."
Vegeta retracts one hand to place at the back of her head, pulling her close to gently press their heads together. "Don't ever think of them as just rough." The fingers of his free hand interlacing her, "they build a lot of shit that keeps us all safe, especially our family."
Bulma can't help but smile at his words, the fact that only she and their kids see this side of him, means more than anything to her.
Nobody needs to know anyway.
"I love you." She says and he smirks again.
"I know." He replies before tilting his head to kiss her slowly, passionately.
She knows him too well, even if he doesn't say the words. It's the way he pours everything into his kisses that lets her know he loves her too. Vegeta has never been a man of words when it comes to her, to love.
But his actions show everything she needs to know about her love being recipocrated.
