(3rd Person…)
"Nii-chan, don't you think you guys are making a big deal out of this?" Goten asked as he looked at his brother. Gohan sighed and tried to fix Goten's clothes.
"Look dude, this is your first dance. When I went to mine everyone made a big fuss. It's a ripple effect." Gohan explained.
"Huh?"
"Never mind…" Gohan sighed. Goten was wearing a black suit with a navy shirt. And, because of Goten's insistence, the jacket was not done up.
"Where is kaasan?" Goten asked.
"Oh she's crying in some room about how you've grown so much right before her eyes and before she knows it we'll all be married and have kids of our own. You know, the usual." Gohan casually said. Goten sweat-dropped. "So, do you like this girl?"
"Yah. She's my friend." Goten replied. Gohan looked at him confused.
"Yah, but do you like her?" Gohan asked.
"Oh…you mean the way Trunks likes Sammi?" Goten said.
"Yah!" Gohan said.
"Nope. I think girls are icky. And she thinks that boys are bakas. We both think this dance thing is stupid and we're only going because we wanna shame up the 8th graders." Goten said matter-of-factly. Gohan looked at him with wide eyes and a slacked jaw.
"Nani?!" Gohan asked but Goten just gave him the Son Grin™. There was a car horn outside.
"There's my ride nii-chan! I'll see you later!" Goten said waving and walking out the door.
"Kaasan was right, he is Tousan's double." Gohan said shaking his head.
Goten walked out and CJ was standing next to the car. She was wearing a burgundy vest, matching trouser-skirt and hat with her shoulder length hair let out. Of course she was also wearing her usual scowl.
"Hey Ceej!" Goten said, as he looked her over. "Did your sisters dress you?"
"Yep. We had to compromise. No dress so I had to wear this thing. No make-up so I had to let my hair out." CJ said.
"Aw, I'm sorry." Goten said.
"Hey, it's no problem." CJ said as she opened the car door and they got in. "Let's go kick some 8th grade butt."
"Yah!"
At the dance…
It was just as the 8th grade girls had predicted. All the guys were on the left side of the dance floor and the girls were on the right. The music was pumping, the food and drink was untouched and there wasn't 8th grader in sight.
"Oy, this is a disaster Tak." Trunks said. "We're supposed to be having a good time and we're all miserable because no one has the guts to break the ice."
"Well why don't you do something about it?" Lil Tak asked.
"Are you crazy?! I'm not gonna go out there and make a fool out of myself!" Trunks replied.
"Oy vey…" Lil Tak sighed. The 8th grade girls who had planned this whole thing were watching from the balcony above the hall, laughing evilly.
"This is great! Our plan worked perfectly!" Tiffany laughed.
"Correction, my plan!" Brittany huffed. "Let's stay a while longer and sees how this plays out." They all laughed again as they watched.
"You know what?! This is ridiculous! I'm going out there!" Trunks said as he tried to go but couldn't. "Damn it! Something is holding me back!"
"You cannot mess with the force of nature Trunks. If it is written, then it shall be done." Lil Tak said.
"I hate it when you talk like that." Trunks said.
Meanwhile…
"Hey Ceej, what do you say we turn back?" Goten offered.
"Nope. If I had to go through the torture I went through tonight for no reason I will kill someone." CJ said. Goten gulped.
"Then let's go in!" Goten said as they walked into the hall. Everyone turned their head and stared at them.
"I knew we should've left earlier…" CJ muttered.
"Hey! Goten decided to make it!" Juliana chirped. "But who's that girl he's with?"
"Froopin scranzels!! Check out the headgear! It's CJ Fujitaka!" Sammi exclaimed as the whole 7th grade gasped.
"Oy…" CJ sighed. "You owe me big Son." Goten looked up and saw the girls in the balcony.
"Look Ceej, we have an audience!" Goten said as the two of them looked up and waved at them mockingly. The DJ changed the track and put on "Cluck, Cluck" by The Product G&B and Wyclef. "CJ…"
"If you're thinking what I think you're thinking then no!" CJ said.
"But CJ…"
"No! No one said I had to dance! I just had to show up!"
"But if you don't then they'll win! Do you really want their smug faces haunting you?" Goten said. CJ just looked at him.
"What else have you got?"
"Please! I love this song! And I'm not too bad at dancing! Nii-chan taught me how to do some and…please?" Goten asked putting on his infamous puppy-dog face.
"Curse you Son Goten." CJ said scowling.
"Sugoi!" Goten said as he dragged her onto the dance floor. They started dancing and a crowd gathered around them.
"Hey! I'm not gonna let those two steal the spotlight!" Trunks said as he took Sammi by the hand. Soon after, everyone got over it and danced.
"Well, looks like our mission was accomplished." Goten grinned.
"Our mission? I seem to remember that this was my idea. And you still owe me Son." CJ said.
"You ever gonna forget that?" Goten asked.
"Nuh uh." CJ said smirking.
"Hey! Son and Fujitaka! We'd like to have a word. Now!" Brittany screeched as the music came to a halt and a crowd gathered.
"What do want Brittany?" CJ asked.
"You! You shouldn't even be here! You, Fujitaka, are a social outcast and your little friend should be in the 6th grade!" Brittany said.
"Hey shut up and back off!" Trunks yelled.
"Keep out of this Trunks!" Goten yelled as Trunks looked at him in surprise. "It's time I stood up for myself."
"Oh yah? What are you gonna do about it? Sick your little girlfriend onto me?!" Brittany said.
"Oh would you please shut the hell up?!" Goten yelled as everyone gasped. "I have had enough of people like you! People that look down on others than are different than them. You must not be as popular as you say seeing as you have nothing better to do on a Friday night other than terrorize us."
"How dare you?"
"Oh I dare! And as far as I'm concerned, I don't care what you or anyone else for that matter thinks of me! So I'm one year younger! That just means I'm a whole lot smarter than you!" Goten said.
"I'm gonna make your life here a living hell Son." Brittany said. "I know people. I can make it happen."
"Bullshit." CJ said as everyone gasped. "Excuse my French. You don't know anyone. I know more people than you do sweetheart. And quite frankly, I guess you wouldn't want everyone to know that you bleach your hair blonde." All the kids in the hall started to laugh hysterically as Brittany stalked away.
"Dude! Not to sound all Party of Five, but I am so proud of you!" Trunks beamed.
"Yah! But how did you know about her hair?" Juliana asked.
"Her sisters. How else?" Lil Tak cracked.
"Well you know us young peoples. We've got to stick together, right Ceej?" Goten said.
"Right Spikes." CJ said as they high-fived each other.
"What do you mean young peoples?" Juliana asked suspiciously.
"Oy…" CJ muttered. "Jules, just enjoy yourself okay? I'll tell ya tomorrow." CJ said as she slapped Goten upside the head. "OW!"
