Hello, Minna-san! I'm sorry that it took so long to get this chapter out.
I got really swamped with schoolwork. Spring break starts today, so
naturally most of my Professors made us (the students), take tests a few
days before spring break…gee, thanks a lot!! One Professor had the right
idea…My Eco teacher is giving us a test after the break. It's a hard
subject, so I have a lot of time to prepare!!
Thank you all for your nice reviews! I'm grateful for the support. Just a note, Gohan's dream in the other chapter was supposed to be a little funny…I guess it wasn't **shrug shoulders. ** Oh yeah, did the dub cut out episodes in the Saiyaman saga, there isn't a lot of episodes where Gohan goes to school before he starts training for the tournament…and it was like five episodes after Gohan met Videl, that she found out who he was.
Oh yeah…he…he…I had to re-read my story…It's been a while…I guess…
One last thing…I always forgot: I DO NOT OWN DBZ…ALTHOUGH I WISH I DID…AND I MAKE NO MONEY OFF OF THIS FAN FIC…ALTHOUGH, ALSO, I WISH I DID…AND PLEASE DON'T SUE ME…BECAUSE WE'LL BOTH GAIN NOTHING…I DON'T NEED A SPOTTY RAP SHEET AND YOU'LL GET NOTHING BECAUSE I'M ALMOST TWENTY…*OH YEAH...MARCH 15TH…**AND I'M ALREADY IN SOME DEBT!!

"So she hates Saiyaman…she has issues with you as your regular self. In fact, doesn't she have issues with everyone?" Vegeta asked Gohan.
"Yeah, Vegeta, I guess that's true." Gohan said. He felt the anxiety he had been feeling, dissipate.
"She loves you, because she's your soul-mate…just help her deal with her issues, and then she'll be okay with you…and your alter-ego."
"Gosh, Vegeta, that's going to be tough. How is she ever going to accept that she can never be stronger than I am? You've never accepted that dad and I are stronger than you."
"I've accepted it, brat…but there's was a chance that I could have rightfully become stronger than you. I've accepted that your father was stronger than I…and that you were stronger than me when we fought Cell…but I could have proved myself in a real battle that I have surpassed you and your father…. but, you've slack off and become some weak pansy and your father is still dead. Besides, your woman is not I…and I'm sure she'll accept that she'll never be as strong as you, more easily than I accepted being inferior to you, seven years ago. I am, right now, stronger than you." Vegeta spoke, and then smirked.
"I just wish that I can help Videl with her problems." Gohan stated.
"Just remember how to break down her defenses." Vegeta replied.
"I'm still not sure if that's the way to go. What if, instead of breaking down her defenses, she tries to beat the crap out of me?" Gohan thought to himself. "Oh, well, if worse comes to worse, I'll try it."
"I'll remember." Gohan replied to Vegeta.
**
"Didn't Vegeta help you, Gohan?" Bulma asked him.
After his lesson with Vegeta was over with, Gohan decided to go and talk with Bulma. He found her in one of her labs, as usual.
"I just wanted to ask you…if there's another way to get Videl to open up to me?" Gohan inquired.
"Well…you could just try and be friends and take things slowly…but that will take forever. You can't rush becoming friends…and then, she'll try and push you away even more once the bonding starts to kick in heavily. If you don't act soon, you two will start to be at each other's throats until you two just confront each other and "do it."
Bulma noticed that Gohan was starting to blush, but still continued.
"You're running on limited time, Gohan. If you two bond while she still has issues with you, who's to say that all the problems she has with you will just disappear…especially when some of the problems she has with you, she has with everyone? If you don't help her out now, I think you'll just create new problems in the long run. Besides, she's probably going through a lot…and the sooner you can help her…the better…and the fastest way to break down her defenses, is the way Vegeta and I taught you. "
After a moment of silence, Bulma continued. "What's the problem with you, anyway? You two will be getting together sooner or later…and it's not like you'll be having sex the moment after you put the moves on her…it's just to get her to open up. The real problem is helping her to get rid of her problems…and you can't make them go away just by some playful groping. All the playful action will do is to buy you the time for you to plead your case. The first thing you have to do is to convince her to stop pushing you away. Then, after that is done, you work on keeping her defenses down and helping her with her problems. You don't have to do everything that we've taught you right away…but when the time comes, you should know what to do. It's a shame that you don't know anything about girls. You poor thing…you hardly even know anything about sex…right?" Bulma inquired, and raised a blue eyebrow.
Gohan, who became extremely mortified by Bulma's little speech, was too dumfounded to say anything and he just shook his head 'no.'
"Maybe Vegeta should teach you about everything." Bulma said, simply.
**
"So you think that I should teach him everything?" Vegeta asked his mate.
Bulma nodded and Vegeta answered, "It's not my place. I can't help it if the idiot doesn't know anything about it. It doesn't even matter too much…Saiyan's are natural at sex…and besides, nature will set in…he'll know what to do…it isn't like the girl would know everything, either."
"Well, I suppose you're right, Vegeta." Bulma stated.
After she sent Gohan home, she went in search for him. She found him in the Gravity room and she opened the door, automatically shutting off the high gravity.
"I hope they get together before the bonding process kicks into high gear. All we need is for the two crime fighters to be at each other's throats one minute, and practically doing it one the in front of the crime scene, the next minute. It'll be hard if they start hating each other and stuff…and they'll meet up with each other, only to get into arguments. If they wait too long, they'll just create more problems. I hope he does okay."
"Who's to say how long the girl will keep denying her feelings…and who's to say that the brat has accepted that he loves her? Even if he has accepted that he loves her, he may be afraid to tell her…he also may be afraid to do what I taught him…and he may not even believe that his Saiyan instincts will kick in." Vegeta stated.
"Besides…I have no regrets about getting into all those arguments with you."
"That's because we still argue. Once those two get together, I'm sure they won't get into any arguments…it's only because Videl is denying her feelings, that she takes it out on him. Arguments are just a way of life for us."
"She'll always get mad at him…she's a firecracker in spirit." Vegeta concluded.
Meanwhile, Bulma was thinking, "arguing is how he shows he love me."
**
"So, Gohan, when are you going to see Videl?" Chi-chi asked her oldest son.
Gohan had gotten home about a half hour ago and Chi-chi was serving him some late dinner.
"I'm going to see her tomorrow, mom." Gohan replied. "I know how to break down her defenses, but how do I help her deal with her problems?" Gohan asked his mother.
"Well…most of them stem from her mother's disappearance, right?" Chi-chi asked him.
"Yeah." Gohan replied.
"Just tell her that you've been through something similar. I don't know how you're going to help her deal with her idiot father, though. It's amazing that she hasn't done him in, yet. If I was her, I think he would have been dead long ago."
"Maybe if I spend enough time with her, she'll forget about her father for a while."
Gohan stated.
**
Gohan was in his bedroom, sitting on his bed and thinking about Videl.
"According to Bulma, I only have a certain amount of time to get with Videl until my Saiyan instincts start to kick into overtime. I think that I may be able to get through to Videl with just words. I'm sure that if I say the right words that it won't take too long for me to break down her defenses. I'm not even completely sure if she loves me…so that's the best way to go. Just because Bulma and Vegeta tell me that soul mates exist and pre-determined, doesn't mean that it's the case for me, right? I mean…why would Videl love me? She has no reason to. After all, I'm just a dork and a momma's boy. Videl could have anyone she wants…why would she choose me? Even if we were soul mates, why would we be soul mates? It just seems weird. The one thing I do know is that I love Satan Videl." Gohan thought to himself.
Gohan got up and crossed his bedroom. He then lifted up a window, and looked out at the stars. "I love her because she's brave and strong…and determined…she smart and never gives up. She has a lot of spirit in her…and I love her…just because I do." Gohan thought.
"Do you really love me, Videl?" Gohan asked out loud.

TBC-okay…it's short…but it's another lead-up chapter…it's one of those uneventful chaps. It's the best way I could write this chap. Anyway, thing's will start to pick up in the next chap.
Anyway, I'm really tired…and it's 9 p.m. and I slept 12 hrs. last night…ugh!!
