Bold words are flashbacks in this story.

Italic words are thoughts.

One-Sided

Something was seriously wrong. He had never heard her speak of someone in this manner. She was always so tomboyish. She would never have even think any of the things she had said today.

"GOHAN!" he heard his mother call from downstairs.

The teenage saiyan walked down the stairs, towards the kitchen and saw his mother holding the home phone, disconnected from the wall, in one hand, and her frying pan, whose power rivaled those of the strongest saiyans in history.

"GOHAN! I just got a call from your teachers saying you FAILED every…single…QUIZ." his mother screamed occasionally smacking him in the head with her frying pan.

His mother was shout loudly about things "scholarships", "PhD's", etc. but he didn't care. He couldn't even hear her. The only thing on his mind was the days events. He didn't even flinch when his was struck in the head by the "Frying Pan of Doom".

"What do you have to say for yourself?"

Gohan remained silent. He was still lost in thought.

"That's it, go to your room!"

He my not have heard anything else but he heard that. Immediately he walked up the stair towards him room. He closed the door and laid down on his bed. He started thing of what he had heard that morning.

Flashback

Okay Gohan today's the day. Today's the day you finally man up and ask her. He psyched himself up, but lost focus when he heard her voice. The voice of the one person he'd been psyching himself up for.

"Oh my God, he so… Well is just can't find the words to describe him." Videl said, dreamily.

"Oh, who is this guy?" Erasa asked

"Well you know that new kid that transferred her from Europe."

"Wait, Videl I though you liked Gohan?" Videl's blonde friend asked her.

"No way, Erasa. He's a good friend but he's, he's him. You know?"

"Um not really" Erasa said in a confused tone.

"Gohan makes me feel like I'm his best friend but this guy makes me feel like I'm the only girl in the world in his eyes"

"Oh I see"

Flashback End

What does she mean I'm me. Who else would I be? What so wrong about me? Sure I'm an alien/human hybrid but I'm more human than most people at school.

Suddenly he felt pain coming from his chest. He knew it wasn't a heart attack the pain was some much worse. It was worse than the pain from Cell dislocating his arm. This pain similar to the pain he felt when he lost his father years ago, but much worse.

His heart ached for her. But he knew there was only one thing he could do. Although he really like, maybe even loved her, he could never interfere with someone else's relationship. So at that very moment he knew this pain was something that he would have to deal with for the rest of his life.

What can I say? One-sided affection hurts. That's how I do it, short and emotional. Please review. If things go well I might make another one shot based on the same theme for Videl.
