Chapter Eight: Gohan's Dream

-

Videl looked at the only horse that was sitting in the stable by the house. It was lying down, asleep, and seemed at peace with the world. She laid her head down and grinned at the sleeping animal, thinking about how sweet it was.

The horse began to stir and Videl looked behind her to see Gohan walking towards her. In the back of her head the name 'Gohan' seemed to be ringing in her mind, it annoyed her some but usually she just ignored it.

"Hey sleepyhead." Gohan grinned as he leaned down beside her. Videl thought that he looked slightly nervous around her but she wasn't sure. "What kept you in bed so late? There isn't anyone sneaking out the back window is there?" Gohan grinned and shook his head.

"Nah, she did that a couple hours ago." Videl rolled her eyes and looked back at Belva. Both of them were silent for a few minutes before Gohan spoke up again. "Do you want her?" Videl's head jerked up quickly.

"W-What?" Gohan nodded to the horse.

"Belva, do you want her? I have a feeling it's going to take a female touch to tame her, and besides, you were the one that calmed Belva down yesterday, and you didn't even do it purposefully. Imagine what you could do if you actually tried." Videl had to admit that she loved the compliments that he was giving her, not used to getting them at home very often.

Her eyes widened as she thought of home. 'Great job Videl! You entirely forgot your friends because you were with a guy…ugh, Lime and Erasa would get such a k-'

"Lime and Erasa! I have to know if there okay!" She began to bundle up her skirts, getting ready to run into the forest when Gohan stopped her.

"Woah Videl, sheesh, I doubt that you just running into the forest will actually help the two girls you're talking about." Videl blushed but calmed down. She began to explain herself.

"When I remembered Lime and Erasa I guess I just went nuts for a little bit there…sorry." Gohan shrugged his shoulders.

"It's okay…" The two turned to the horse again when she whined, both wondering about the two girls.

"I think I should leave." Videl whispered. Gohan looked at her slowly.

"Why?" Videl shrugged.

"Well, it's not as if I can stay. I mean, think about it. When you get married and all of that stuff, I'll just be in the way." She had a slight joking tone in her voice but Gohan also understood what she meant.

So then why was this thought hurting him so much?

"Yeah…and you need to find your friends too…"

"Exactly."

"I think you should still wait a few days though, maybe get some supplies and what not…" Videl nodded.

"That sounds like a good idea. Besides, you have to be getting tired of me, I mean, I've been here for nearly over a month, maybe even over! I don't know what day it is!" She laughed softly and Gohan nodded.

"Yeah…" he straightened up and began to walk into the house. "I think I'm gonna go back to sleep." Videl looked at him confused.

"Go back to sleep? You just woke up a couple of minutes ago!" Gohan turned around and shrugged as he opened the door.

"Guess I'm just tired." And he went inside.

-

Gohan fell to sleep quickly, he wasn't lying when he said that he was tired. He laid down in the pillows and closed his eyes, falling asleep quickly.

His sleep wasn't the nicest it could have been, a small bits of dream here and there. He grunted in his sleep as the voices began to filter through, though no picture came with any of them.

"Of course you know Videl here, she's the daughter of…HERCULE!" a squeaky voice claimed, making Gohan wonder who Hercule was

.

"What are you hiding Son Gohan?" Why was there a Son in front of his name? And why was Videl saying it?

"My father beat Cell!" Videl seemed angry.

"No, I did." Gohan was startled when he found that it was his voice. Not startled enough to wake up though. He began to wonder exactly who Cell 'was'.

"What?"

"I'm sorry I didn't tell you Videl…"

"Go to hell Gohan, you shouldn't lie about things like this you idiot!" He flinched from the tone of Videl's voice and was happy when the words moved on.

"I love you Videl."

"I love you to Gohan." Gohan couldn't help the grin that spread across his face.

"The girl's mine boy…" Gohan growled at the words, not even very aware that he was, being asleep.

"You can't have her! She…She's my mate!" He was startled again and this time it was enough to wake him. Even though he was awake however, that didn't stop the last part of his 'dream'.

"…mine now."

He closed his eyes before shaking his head and deciding that it wasn't worth trying to get to sleep. If he had another type of dream like that he didn't even want to think about what would come from it.

-

Videl began to make a list of everything that she would need to take with her on the 'trip'. She was getting quite excited she knew, because she was finally ready to see her 'friends' again. Videl shook her head sadly, feeling sorry to the both of them for not thinking of them very much while she was here with Gohan.

THINGS TO TAKE

Compass

More food

A blanket

Some type of knife

(For both protection and cutting food)

Videl looked at the last thing and looked around the room, as if checking to make sure that no one saw her write that. She went quickly to the paper and began to scratch his name out.
