Hey guys, so this is the chapter that I am very excited to post. I had to pull myself back from not posting it yesterday. I hope you still like it after this chapter, and please stay with it. This chapter might be confusing because it changes perspective; it would be better if I was an animation artist and I worked on Dragonball. I'm sorry if it gets too confusing. So I got a comment last time about why was Gohan poor when Chi Chi was a princess. Well I don't claim to know everything about DBZ, but from what I saw in the series, they weren't really living well. And also Chi Chi was widowed for seven years, and really had no extra income coming in. I could be wrong but for my story that's how I decided to go.

Gohan had gotten himself a nickname at his job. They called him the one man moving crew. What would take a six man crew a day to finish, took Gohan only hours to do. This made the other employees very angry, because Bruno would always call him in to save on cost. They barely worked at all anymore, and they weren't happy. Even though Gohan was excelling in work and school, it didn't really leave as much time for Videl as he would of like.

Videl wasn't too happy about it either. She was glad that he had such a good work effort, but if she had to spend one more evening with Daisy Dame, there was going to be a murder. It was now summer time, and a month before the tournament. Gohan and Videl both decided to extend their housing contracts, meaning that Daisy would be her roommate for another year. Every time Daisy came home it was like having the same conversation over and over again.

"Oh hi Videl." Daisy would say while she opened the door.

"Hi Daisy" Videl would mutter while turning up the TV.

"Home alone again tonight? Gohan lost interest in you?"

"No" Videl would say annoyed, "He's got to work tonight."

"That's what they all say." Daisy would say and would then walk into her room.

Not tonight, before Daisy could say anything Videl grabbed her bag and stormed out the door.

"Well hello to you too." Daisy said closing the door.

Videl then stormed across campus to the boy's dorms near the Technology Building. She walked up the four flights of stairs, and began knocking on the door of 407. Gohan had just gotten home because he was still in his uniform.

"Videl, is something wrong?" Gohan asked seeing how angry she was.

"Gohan I can't do it any more," Videl said walking into his room; Gohan then closed the door and sat on the bed.

"Can't do what anymore?" Gohan asked confused.

"I can't spend another night with that blood sucking leech." Videl said sitting down next to him.

"I'm sorry Videl; I know it's been hard living with her." Gohan knew exactly who she was talking about. Videl over the year had come up with new names to call Daisy. Blood sucking leech was this month's favorite.

"Gohan I'm sick of just sitting at home with her, I want to spend time with you."

"Videl I have a job."

"I know, but don't you have some time off coming up?"

"No I'm afraid I don't have any…" Gohan looked over and saw that Videl's hopes had been shattered. All Gohan could do was smile when he delivered the next part. "until tomorrow."

It took a second for it to register in Videl's mind, but when it did she couldn't hide his excitement. "Oh Gohan," Videl said throwing her arms around him, and then she let go and punched him.

"Ow, what was that for?" Gohan said rubbing his arm.

"That's for playing with my emotions, you big jerk." Videl the leaned in and kissed him.

"What do you call that; you punch me and then you kiss me." Gohan said joking. "Anyway, I got us reservations at a fancy restaurant at 7:30, so dress nice. And then I got a surprise afterwards that I have to blindfold you to take you there."

"What are you up to?"

"I guess you'll see tomorrow night."

Videl spent another hour in Gohan's room just being with him. Then I was time to go home. Gohan threw on his shoes, and walked her to her dorm still in his work clothes.

"I'll see you tomorrow." Gohan said kissing Videl.

"See you tomorrow." Videl said opening the door to the dorm and walking in.

Gohan smiled all the way back to his dorm, 'Tomorrow is the day.'

Gohan could barely get to sleep that night he was just so excited about tomorrow. But once he did the morning came in a flash. Gohan got up and got dress; he had a lot to do be for the 7:30 dinner he had planned.

Gohan grabbed a backpack full of supplies and began flying to Mt. Pioazu. He wasn't visiting his family; he didn't have time for that. Instead he flew to a cliff that had a perfect view of the sunset. It was the first place they spent the night together, and this is where he was going to ask her.

After finishing setting up, Gohanlooked down at his watch and saw that it was already twelve. 'I got to get going.'

Gohan then flew back to Satan City as fast as he could. He landed right outside the jewelry store's entrance. He was buzzed in right way.

"You're running late." The owner said unlocking the vault.

"I know, it took me longer than I thought to set up." Gohan said catching his breath.

"Good thing this is ready to go," The owner said handing Gohan a velvet box. "Good luck."

"Thanks for all that you've done for me." Gohan said shaking his hand. "Is there anyway I can repay you."

"No, your happiness is all the repayment I need. But an invite to the wedding could be nice." The old man said. He and Gohan had grown rather close over the year.

Gohan smiled, "You got it." Gohan shook the man's hand one last time and then left the store.

Gohan flew as fast as he could back to his dorm to get ready for this big date. Just as he was about to go down to the hall to take a shower his phone rang; it was Bruno.

"Gohan buddy, I have to ask you for a big favor." Bruno said.

"Bruno, you know I can't do it tonight. I'm proposing to my girlfriend."

"I know buddy, and I wouldn't be calling you unless it was an emergency."

"What's wrong?"

"All the guys came into my office today and gave me an ultimatum. They said that they would all quit, if I don't fire you."

"You can't fire me just because they threaten you."

"I know, that's what I told them. I said 'no one threatens Bruno'. Then they all quit. Our biggest client needs us to move some equipment downtown, and I have no crew. I really need your help."

"Bruno…"

"Gohan I am fully prepared to promote you to supervisor, and more then double your salary, and you'll have more free time, if you come and help me."

Gohan knew that an engagement ring was only the beginning. There be a house payment, and everything else that came with spending the rest of your life with someone. Gohan didn't want to rely on anyone to provide for him and his future wife. "How can I be supervisor, when there is no team?"

"I'm hiring people over the weekend; I just need my one man team tonight. I only need your help loading it; then you can leave. It should only take you thirty minutes."

Gohanlet out a deep groan, "Fine I'll be there in five minutes."

"You're the best, Mr. Supervisor."

"Tell that to my girlfriend." Gohan said hanging up the phone.

Gohan felt like throwing his phone across the room, but instead he dialed Videl's number. Every dial tone seemed to take an eternity.

"Hello?" Videl's voice finally answered.

"Videl…" Gohan began and then paused, "Would it be possible to push our date back thirty minutes?"

"Gohan," Videl said obviously angry.

"Listen I don't like this any more than you do, but my boss is in a tight spot."

"How?"

"The whole team quit on him tonight when he said he wouldn't fire me. Now he has no one for one of are biggest clients. He said that he'd even promote me, and double my salary. That means more free time for us."

The other line was just silent.

"I'm not canceling the whole date. I'm just asking you to wait thirty minutes."

Videl was silent for a few more moments, "I guess thirty minutes won't ruin the entire evening."

"Thank you so much Videl, I swear I'll make it up to you. I love you."

"I love you too." Videl then hung up her phone.

As Gohan was racing to finish the job as fast as he could, Videl sat on her bed already dressed for her date. 'This just sucks' Videl thought has she was about to throw her phone across the room. Then it vibrated.

It was another mass text message from Sharpner inviting everyone he knows to another mixer at his fraternity. Videl thought about it for a second, 'Well I am all dressed up. What's the harm in going over there for thirty minutes?' Videl then grabbed her purse, and head out the door of her room.

"Oh where are you going all dressed up?" Daisy asked.

"None of your damn business" Videl said walking out the front door.

As soon as the door slammed shut Daisy said, "What did I do?"

While walking down the stairs Videl quickly texted Gohan telling him where she would be, and to pick her up at the party.

When she arrived at the party, she could hear the music blasting through the front door. Videl knocked, and none other than Sharpner answered the door.

"Come on…Videl?" Sharpner said shocked to see his old friend standing right in front of him.

"Hi Sharpner" Videl said.

"Wow you look amazing; you know you didn't have too get all dressed up for this party."

"I didn't; Gohan and I have a date, but he got called into work for thirty minutes. So I came here to waste some time."

"You're still dating Gohan huh? Well I'll keep an eye out for him, in the mean time why don't you come on in and enjoy yourself."

Videl walked in and went over to the refreshments. Videl wasn't sure what had been spike and what hadn't so decided to just go watch some of the guys play a game of pool.

Videl was paying attention to the game, when a guy walked up to her. "Well hello there, what's your name?" Videl looked up and saw a good looking 20 year old boy, 6'2", with brown hair and blue eyes looking at her.

"I'm Videl." She said stuttering a bit when she said it.

"Videl, that's a pretty name."

"Thanks"

Videl and this boy spent the whole time talking.

Thirty Minutes Later

Gohan was racing back to his dorm. When he got up to his room, he quickly ran down the hall to take a shower. After he was done, he ran back to his room to get dress. Gohan threw on his suit and tie, and put the ring in his pocket. Gohan grabbed his phone, and saw the message from Videl. Gohan quickly racked his brain for where Sharpner lived, and then took off down the stairs.

On the way to the party Gohan began rehearsing his speech out loud. "Videl I love you, will you marry me? No she deserves something more thoughtful than that. Videl, when I first saw you, I was scared of you. No, that won't work." Gohan then reached the front door. "Gohan I guess you'll just have to say it from the heart in the moment." Gohan then knocked on the door.

Again, Sharpner answered the door. "Gohan"

"Sharpner" Gohan said nodding at him.

"Hey it's great to see you man. Wow, aren't you looking snazzy. Got yourself a big date with Videl huh?"

"Yes"

"Well the last time I saw her she was in the Billiards Room."

"Thanks" Gohan said walking into the party.

In the Billiards Room, Videl and the boy were laughing.

"You know what Videl, you're such a cool, down-to-earth girl."

"Thanks, I try." Videl said smiling.

Gohan then spotted Videl from across the room, but there were too many people in his way for her to see him. It was also too loud for him to yell her name, and for her to hear him. 'Who's that boy she's with?' Gohan thought to himself.

"I really like you Videl, like a lot." The boy said.

"Wait a minute…" Videl said trying to stop him right there, but it happened faster then she knew what happened herself.

The boy kissed her, and Gohan saw everything. A fire started to burn inside of him, and everyone else became invisible. Seconds turned to minutes, and Gohan felt himself moving forward with intense speed.

Just as Videl pulled back, and was about to slap him herself, Gohan fist made contact with the boy's jaw. As the boy fell to the ground in pain, Videl realized what had just happened. Gohan just stared at her with intense anger, but all Videl could focus on was the tears beginning to form in his eyes.

"Gohan, it's not what it looks like…" Videl said trying to explain that she didn't want him to kiss her.

"Dude! I think you broke my jaw." The boy said still on the ground.

Gohan didn't break eye contact with Videl, but he responded, "I pulled back, and you're talking. You're going to be fine." Gohan then turned and walked out of the party.

"Gohan, wait!" Videl said chasing after him.

Once out side, Videl saw Gohan pacing clearly not sure what to do with himself. Has she got closer to him, Gohan continued to pace.

"Gohan, it's not what it looked like…" Videl repeated.

That stopped Gohan right in his tracks and he turned to face her. "It's not what it looks like. It's not what it looks like. It's not what it looks like!" Gohan said getting louder each time he repeated it. "Videl you kissed him!"

"No he kissed me." Videl corrected him.

"What's the difference? There was still a kiss involved Videl. What were you doing even talking to him?"

"I was at a party Gohan; people are allowed to talk to each other."

"Why did you even go to the party? I was only going to be thirty minutes."

"It is always thirty minutes!" Videl said her emotion beginning to boil over. Tears began to flow down her cheeks. "It's always sometime to do with work! You spend all your time with work and with school, and I am always the one you have to make it up too."

Gohan shook his head in disapproval, "I don't even know why I would ever think we were ready."

"Gohan, what do you mean by that?" Videl asked confused.

Gohan looked at her coldly, "Nothing, I'm leaving. Enjoy your life." Gohan then took off with such force that it shook the ground around him.

"Gohan wait!" Videl said taking off as well, but Gohan was already out of sight. Videl tried to calm her mind enough to focus on Gohan's ki. It took her a few minutes, but she soon locked onto him. Gohan was already hundreds of miles away. There was no way she was going to catch up to him, but she knew where he was going. 'He's going home.'

As Videl was flying as fast as she could, she felt that Gohan had stopped. 'He's not home, but he's close to it'. Then she felt his power increase tremendously. 'Did he just go Super Saiyan?' Minutes later, he powered down, and then she lost his ki. Videl stopped trying to lock onto him again but it was no use. 'Maybe if I go to where he last was, I could lock onto him better.' Videl then flew to where she last felt him.

When she landed, it took her a few moments to realize where she was, but when she did the tears began to flow down her cheek again. She was on a cliff, with a perfect view of the valley and the sunset. About two years ago, Gohan had helped her get over her nightmares and they spent their first night together here. She would do anything to go back to that night. Videl began searching franticly for Gohan's ki, but she couldn't find him. Videl fell to her knees and began sobbing into her hand. 'How could I let that guy kiss me?'

Videl then remember her phone, and nearly ripped her bag trying to get it out. She quickly dialed Gohan's number and tried to compose herself. The phone rang three times, and then someone pick up.

Videl heart sank when she heard another voice besides Gohan. "Hello?" Chi Chi said over the phone.

"Chi Chi hi," Videl said trying to hide the fact that she was crying, but she was failing. "Is Gohan there?"

"No," Chi Chi said in a concerned voice, "in fact Goku is the one who brought the phone to me. He just pops in hands me the phone and said that he and Gohan are going to go off on some special training before the tournament. I never saw Gohan. Are you alright Videl?"

"Do you know when he'll be back?" Videl asked completely ignoring Chi Chi's question.

"Not till the tournament; they even left poor little Goten here to train all by himself."

"Thanks" Videl said hanging up the phone. 'How could he just leave, and not talk to me first?' Videl cried for a few more minutes. Then she picked herself up, and began the long journey home to Satan City, alone.

The fight from Gohan's Perspective

"Nothing I'm leaving. Enjoy your life." Gohan then took off with such force that it even surprised him. Gohan could hear Videl calling his name, but he was too angry to care. He put all his angry into his fly, and he was flying faster than he ever had before. He zoned out most of the trip, and soon he was where he wanted to be.

This is where he was supposed to propose to her. As he thought about it more, the more angry he became. He started to breathe heavier, and he couldn't control himself anymore. "How could she do this to me?! Aaaaaaarraaaaaaaahhhh" Gohan screamed powering up into a Super Saiyan. Gohan then reached into his pocked and pulled out the box. Gohan continued to breathe heavier, and then he just did it. He chucked the box as far and as hard as he could into the wilderness.

As he watched the box slowly fall into the forest, he was surprised by the sudden appearance of his father catching the box.

"Gohan what are you doing?" Goku asked in a serious tone.

"I'm ruining what's left of my life." Gohan said falling to his knees, and powering down.

"Gohan what happened?" Goku said helping his son off his knees.

Tears began flowing, "I was going to do it tonight dad; I was going to ask her to marry me." Gohan said grabbing the box and waving it in his father's face as if to prove his point further. "Then I go to get her, and she kissing another guy."

"I think this is all just a big misunderstanding." Goku said trying to comfort him.

"I might be over reacting dad, but I was going to ask her." Gohan said. "I got to get out of here. I need to go into space or something. I just can't look at her now."

Goku racked his brain for the right thing to say, and then he settled on a favorite of his. "I think we need to go training."

"Dad training isn't always the answer."

"I know a place where you can train in a different dimension; away from all this stress. How about it Gohan?"

Gohan was silent for a few moments, "Well I did ask for leave for this whole mouth to train for the tournament, even though I was suppose to be training with Videl." Gohan paused, "It couldn't hurt, lets go now."

"Now let me just go tell your mother what's going on." Goku said putting his fingers to his head.

"Wait dad!" Gohan yelled before his father could disappear. "Could you not tell mom about the proposal or the fight with Videl."

"No problem" Goku said raising his fingers to his head again.

"Oh and dad" Gohansaid reaching into his pocket to retrieve his phone. "Could you have her hold on to this? If I am to fully focus, I need to be cut off from the world."

Goku nodded, and then teleported to their home; leaving Gohan alone for a few minutes holding the ring box in his hand.

"I'm sorry Videl; I have to leave, but I won't get rid this." Gohan said putting the ring back in his pocket.

Goku then teleported back to his son, and then they teleported again.

Sorry everyone but there had to be some drama. Before I wrote this chapter I was reading other G/V fic's and most of them had Gohan being the one who messed up, so I decided for it to be more Videl's fault. I have really big plans for the meeting, so stick around.
