Here's a little one shot that takes place between He Mele No Lilo and it's eventual sequel.
He was not fully aware of what was was going on. He knew, for instance, that his body had just been shifted rather forcefully to the side, and that a new source of warmth had just appeared beside him, but his semi-asleep brain could not fathom why these thing had occurred. Gohan opened his eyes, and at first thought he hadn't. After several blinks, he decided that he had indeed opened them, and there was simply no light for his eyes to register. The arms around him were, however, unmistakable, even in the darkest night.
"Piccolo!" the six year old pushed against his friend's grip. "What are you doing?!"
"The power's out." Piccolo's voice lacked its usual gruffness, and Gohan sighed.
"You're such a baby."
"Shut up."
"I thought you couldn't see in the dark anyway, how'd you find your way in here?" Gohan managed to squirm out of the Namekian's arms enough to sit up. He reached out a blind hand and felt around for his friend's face. "did you use your antennae like feelers or something to sense subtle distortions in air pressure, thus working your way across the hall and into my room?"
Gohan beamed, he could practically feel the blush on Piccolo's cheeks.
"Sure."
Mission accomplished, the boy sighed, and snuggled back down into his friend's arms. He was fully aware that his spiked black hair was tickling Piccolo's nose, but the boy didn't really care.
"Don't worry, Piccolo," Gohan yawned reaching for the blankets, "I'll scare the monsters away."
"I'm not -" Piccolo grunted, and shifted his arm under Gohan's head. "It's the dark, moron. I'm not afraid of monsters."
"Sure," Gohan mumbled sleepily. "Well, the sooner you go back to sleep, the sooner the sun comes up and then you can pretend that you're not a baby for being afraid of the dark."
"Just shut up and go to sleep, Kid."
Gohan nodded in agreement, and draped one arm over Piccolo's neck.
"'Night-night..."
"...'Night."
For FirstFemaleNamek, who has been pestering me :) I love you.
