A/N: I highly suggest if you've never done a dare night with your friends that you try one.

Chapter 13: Dare Night

Skittles was bouncing up and down excitedly. "So, what's the first thing on the list?"

Videl opened the first envelop and pulled out the card that had a 1 on it. She smiled. "It says, return all the articles of clothing from this backpack to their original owners while wearing them.Wait what backpack?"

I smirked. "The one on the floor."

Videl reached down and unzipped the back pack pulling out a couple shirts, a pair of pants, a pair of boxers and two bras. "So we put on all these clothes and go door to door to each room until we find whose clothes these are? Gohan! You were stealing people's clothes! There are bras in here!"

I smiled. "There aren't very many girls in Orange Star High that aren't willing to hand over their bra." I winked and she rolled her eyes.

Skittles was rifling through the clothes. "Okay, well let's split the clothes up, I will wear a bra and the pants. Videl you wear the boxers and a shirt. And Gohan you wear the other bra and shirt."

Videl grudgingly started to put on her share of the clothes. I laughed and picked up the camera. "Everybody ready?"

"Ready." They answered in unison.

35 minutes later we were running up and down the halls. I had successfully delivered my shirt and was wearing my regular shirt with a bra over it, Skittles was pantless with a bra over his shirt since his pants had already been delivered to Ted and Videl had her regular shirt back on with a pair of boxers.

We were down by the pool where a group of students were spending their free night swimming, doing dives and sitting in the hot tub.

"Alright, Alright!" Skittles put his hands up to silence the teens and make them stop moving. "Does this bra belong to any fine hunnies out here?" Skittles was a rather fit individual on the football team and basketball team. He laughed excitedly holding up the video camera.

Several girls squealed and ran up to him trying to claim the bra. Skittles took it off and winked at me. "Looks like I'm going to have to do some Cinderella comparisons."

Videl rolled her eyes and turned to me.

A guy approached us behind her. "Excuse me."

He had blonde hair and dark brown eyes and he played on the Orange High soccer team. He was a little taller than Videl and he looked down at her. She cleared her throat. "What can I help you with?"

He smiled charmingly down at her. "I believe those are my boxers." He commented glancing down and then back up at her. I smirked over at her. Videl blushed furiously. "If you don't mind I'll have them back?"

"Sure." She slowly rolled the boxers off and stepped out of them handing them to him. I glanced at her. She was back to those same spandex shorts.

Skittles came up to us and let out a low whistle. "Woooo that was some serious work but I think I'm gonna be okay!" He took a deep breath. "What's next?"

"I think I'm the only one left with something." I started reaching into the backpack searching for the second task.

"Not for very long!" Angie appeared in front of me. "I believe it belongs to me Gohan Sweetheart." She walked behind me, unclipped her bra and took a handful of my butt. I let out a yelp. "Catch ya later, Gohan." She winked and dove back into the pool. Skittles turned off the camera and watched her bounce away also.

I stared at her clutching the envelope. Videl grabbed it out of my hand. I snapped out of my trance. She took out the paper with a number 2 on it. This one says, "Take a picture with a Capsule Corp. employee."

Skittles rummaged through the backpack and pulled out the digital camera. "Okay, I'll do number two and take the camera with me and you two do number three and take the video camera. You guys have my cell number so call me when you're done and we'll meet up again."

Skittles ran away with his digital camera. And Videl pulled out number 3. "Steal a pair of Vegeta's underwear."

She looked up at me. "There's no way" She shook her head.

I smirked cockily. "There's always a way."

/

With an hour and a half left running on the clock we had to finish this task and the last two. I stood at the end of the hall looking both ways. Videl was right behind me with her hands resting on my arms and my back lightly. I closed my eyes taking in the feel of her light fingertips against my skin. I tried to focus my energy on the people in the building. Bulma was in her study. Dr. Briefs was in his lab. Bunny was in their bedroom. Vegeta was down in the gravity building and Trunks was asleep in his room.

"Perfect." I turned around at her. "No one is here."

She withdrew her head away from me. "How do you know that?"

I shrugged. "Just a feeling. Let's go!"

I tugged on her lightly. We started down the hall being careful not to cross any maids or staff wandering about the building. We kept lightly on our toes. I kept my head down and alert ready to sense any oncoming disasters. I looked at Videl's feet in her high top purple and black sneakers. She was walking on her tippy toes. "Hmph." I smiled. I stopped us in front of a tall pair of white double doors. "This is it." Videl nodded.

I tried the knob. "Is it locked?" She whispered.

I smirked. "No." I pulled hard on the knob breaking the lock. "It wasn't locked. Just jammed." I lied.

I swung open the doors and we entered their room. "Whoa!" Videl exclaimed.

Their bedroom was like a small house. It opened up straight to the king or possibly bigger than king sized bed. A large TV screen hung on the wall across from the bed. Their bathroom had a hot tub, a shower for seven and a double sink. The walls were lined with electronics, dressers and wardrobes. They had a medium sized walk in closet and a separate shoe rack. "Okay." I put my hands together. "Let's look for that spandex underwear of his."

I started opening drawers. "Gohan." Videl followed me to a dresser. "This is a total invasion of privacy."

I shut the drawer I was looking in. "Do you want to win?" She glared at me. "I thought so." I turned back to another drawer. "So keep looking."

She groaned and started opening up drawers. "Oh my kami! Ew!"

"What?!" I dashed over to her side.

She dropped the long row of condoms she'd found on the floor. I started laughing. "Oh yeah. That's fine. Keep laughing. I've only been scarred." I put a hand over my stomach. "You might want to bust out that camera of yours, Gohan."

I reached into the backpack without hesitation pulling up the video camera. Videl plastered a big smug look on her face. I pressed record and filmed her. "Looks like I found our underwear." She pulled them out of the drawer with the tip of her index finger and cautiously brought them into the back pack dropping them in.

/

10:17pm we were heavily panting in the lounge. Videl doubled over with her hands on her knees breathing deeply. "Wooooooo" She sighed.

"There you guys are!" Skittles was waving over to us. He showed us his picture. "Check this out! Got the picture with the employee!" He withdrew his camera. "What'd you guys do?"

I smiled. "We found Vegeta's underwear." I laughed. "Rather, Videl did..." She cringed.

Skittles laughed. "What's left?"

Just then Erasa, Sharpner and Matthew came running into the room. They spotted us and strode over. "Hey guys." Sharpner nodded. "How'd ya do?"

Skittles smiled proudly. "We got everything done."

Matthew's eyes widened. "Even the underwear?"

Videl smirked. "Even the underwear."

I pulled out the next paper passing it to Videl. "Win a game of pool."

Skittles picked up a pole and looked directly into Matthew's eyes. "I got this one kid."

/

With only ten minutes left the scores were even. The rest of the class had gathered around and were all sitting in front of the giant TV screen. I plugged in each camera and we viewed videos and pictures keeping score. Angie was bouncing up and down. "It looks like you each have four points! What's number five? What's number five?" She exclaimed

I smirked. I handed Videl the envelope. She opened it slowly. I watched her eyes scan from left to right four times. She looked up at me. "It says kiss someone on your team."

She blinked at me. Sharpner laughed. "No problem!" He grabbed Erasa and kissed her deeply. The class let out a taunting chorus of 'ooooohhsss'.

"...that you've never kissed before."

The talking ceased. "What?" Sharpner looked away from Erasa. The smug smile on his face fell. He looked at Matthew. "If you think you're kissing my girlfriend, you're freaking nuts!" He shouted pulling Erasa into him.

Matt threw up his hands. "Whoa, whoa slow your roll bro. I didn't say anything about kissing your woman."

I laughed. I could feel Videl's eyes on me. It was silent. I could feel everyone staring at me like I planned this. I inwardly scoffed. Well I did plan this...I knew she would hate to lose. She took a proud step towards me. I smirked. I knew she couldn't resist. I mean pff... come on... I'm part Saiyan. I'm half immortal. Who wouldn't want to kiss me?

"Augh!" I looked to my left. Skittles came up to me grabbed my cheeks and planted a kiss right on my lips. He let go of my face and jumped up. "Wooooooooo!" Everyone burst into laughter cheering excitedly. "We won! Yeah! Team Skittles!" He squealed.

Videl started laughing and I rubbed my lip with my hands. I looked up at Skittles and burst into laughter. "I have to say Skittles... you're one crazy son of a bitch."

Videl moved and stood beside me. I stole a glance at her. She must have noticed because a small playful smile tugged at her lips. I looked forward at Skittles standing on the pool table dancing to the song blasting on the stereo system.

Tonight was awin.

I strolled out of Vegeta's training room mid-afternoon stretching. I yawned. Training without sparring today was nice. My stomach rumbled and I stopped clutching it dramatically. This meant it was time for me to head over to Bulma's and mooch off some food. I started my stroll up to the building staring down at my feet.

"I'm really glad you decided to come up and talk to me." Bulma voiced. I looked up. From a distance I could see Bulma sitting outside on her porch with Videl sitting close beside her.

I quickly ducked beside some tall hedge. "I'm really glad you forgive me." She laughed nervously. I inwardly smiled. I loved how nervous she seemed. She sighed and slouched in her chair sipping some lemonade.

Bulma laughed. "It's no problem. You're important to Gohan and any friend of his is a friend of mine." She waved, picking up a glass of red wine sipping on it. "And it is really sweet of you to cut him some slack."

I slapped my head with my hand. Bulma… I sighed. Videl shrugged. "Well he's kind of important to me too."

I smirked.

"Hey boy! What are you doing back there?" Vegeta came striding towards me also eager for something to eat.

"Vegeta!" I shouted in a harsh whisper. I tugged on him to come down level with me.

He fell to the ground. "What the hell do you think you're doing?" He whispered harshly. He shoved me.

I shoved him back. "Hey!" Vegeta threw a punch and we started wrestling in the hedges. He elbowed me roughly and I fell through the hedges and he came falling on top of me. We scrambled to get back on our feet.

Bulma stood up and marched towards us. "What is going on here?"

Videl was right behind her. "Are you two fighting?"

"No." "Yes."

I looked at Vegeta shaking my head. Videl raised an eyebrow, "I'm going to go back to my room." She turned to Bulma. "Thanks again." She looked back at me. "See you later!" She walked away.

I shoved Vegeta away from me. "Hey! I'm trying to keep a deep dark secret here!"

"Keeping your saiyan blood a secret is an insult to our race!" He shoved me back. "And trying to impress a stupid human girl is even more pathetic." He pushed me again.

Bulma cleared her throat. "Excuse me?" She demanded.

Vegeta rolled his eyes. "Oh please woman! Like it was thathard trying to impress you."

Bulma's mouth dropped. "Vegeta!" She squealed marching up and smacking him against the arm. "You big inconsiderate ass!" She turned her heel and went back in the house.

I shook my head at Vegeta. "You're in huge trouble." I chuckled.

He shrugged. "I'll just take her to look at these stupid falling stars out tonight."

I raised a mock eyebrow. "Look at that; Vegeta has a soul."

He furrowed his eyebrows. "Whatever, kid. Human women aren't that hard to please. I blew up the moon once to give Bulma the shooting stars that she wanted." I looked at him. That was oddly considerate for Vegeta. He smirked at me. "You might wanna try that with that little girl of yours tonight." He laughed. "Looks like I'm all around the better man."

I rolled my eyes and started towards my room. I held my hand back and shot a beam at Vegeta sending him tumbling backwards. I smirked. I'll show him the better man.

That evening there were a handful of students lying out on the front lawns of the hotel to look up at the stars. The sun had set and there was a nice chill in the air. Couples were nuzzled together and the PA system was being dragged out to play music on the system while the students watched the stars. I strategically stepped around bodies of students from both senior homeroom classes.

"Gohan!" I looked up and Skittles was waving over at me trying to get my attention to where our group of 'Dare Night' friends was sitting.

I made my way over. "Hey." There was a unison of 'heys' in return. "What's happening?" I offered.

"Not much! Just gearing up for these stars! Another hour and they should be falling!" Skittles shouted enthusiastically. I was half listening. Most of my attention was on Videl talking to Matt.

I looked back at Skittles and chuckled. "Yeah, I'm stoked. Excuse me." I patted him on the shoulder and approached Videl. She was sitting on the grass on a picnic blanket with Erasa, Matt and Sharpner. I squatted down. She looked up at me. I smiled. "Hey."

A smile started tugging at her lips. "Hey." She said softly back.

"I was wondering…" I rubbed the back of my neck and looked down. "Do you…possibly want to come watch the shooting stars tonight with me?" I tried shyly.

She smirked and raised an eyebrow. "Isn't that what I'm doing right now?"

I smiled. "I know. But we're going somewhere special." I stood to my feet and reached out a hand waiting. I knew she couldn't tell, but Kami, I was nervous. She looked away. My heart was pounding. She bit her lip mulling over her options.

She looked back up at me smiling. "Okay. You're on." She reached up a hand and I heaved her to her feet. "We'll be back in a bit." I called back trying to avert my eyes from our friends so they couldn't see me blushing furiously. I helped pull her through the crowd. "Come on."

I stood in front of the large front double doors. I reached into my pocket and fumbled for my keys. "You have your own keys here?" Videl asked disbelievingly.

I opened the door and looked back at her. "Yeah." I chuckled.

She followed me in. "Wow, you weren't kidding when you said you guys were all really close."

I took Videl to the highest point in the Brief Estate. I took her up to the mansion on the top of the hill on to the roof. I helped her out onto the long flat ledge. Waiting for us was a blanket with two dim lanterns, a cooler with cans of Arnold Palmer and Green tea. On top of the cooler was a pack of chocolate chip cookies. I smiled. "What do you think?" I asked.

"Wow!" She gasped. She moved over and sat down on the blanket looking straight up at the sky. "We're above everything!" She exclaimed.

You could see the tops of trees, the city lights in the distance and the ocean past that. The lights from the grounds was obscuring most of the stars. I furrowed my eyebrows. "Hang on a sec okay? I'm going to get…something…"

I went inside and went into the first room I found. I walked over to the nearest socket and pressed my palm to it powering up slightly. It short circuited the grounds and turned out all the lights in the area. I made my way back to the ledge. "What happened?!" Videl called from the blanket.

I sat beside her. "I don't know." I shrugged. "But there are so many stars out now."

I looked over at her. Her skin was pale in the moonlight. Her dark black hair even darker than the sky and as she tilted her head back looking straight up I could see the stars reflected in her eyes. She caught me staring. "What are you staring at?" She inquired.

I smiled falling to my back and looking up at the sky. "Nothing." I answered.

She fell back beside me looking up as well. "What's it like?" She paused. "Being so close with the Briefs. It must be cool."

I smiled. "Yeah, it is pretty cool. I met her when I was little. My dad took me over to his ah…" I hesitated. The last thing I needed her to know was that he was a martial artist. "His friend's house, they were having some family reunion thing, but I must've been four…maybe five?" I shrugged. "I don't remember. Anyway, I just remember being so shy to meet all these people. Not all of them were famous and rich, but they were important to my dad." I looked over at her. "Even though I was that young I could sense how much they meant to him and I was so nervous." I chuckled.

Videl looked back at me. "That's so cool. So they've all pretty much seen you grow up, huh?"

I nodded. "Pretty much. What about you?"

She looked away again up at the sky. "What do you mean?"

I returned my look as well. "What was your childhood like?"

She shrugged. "There's not much to say. I'm pretty sure my dad has been fighting since before I was born so martial arts have been all I've had. My mother always embraced my love for fighting as well. But she always kept my father in check you know? Making sure he wasn't making an ass of himself, or letting him get too cocky, or letting him be a big gigantic buffoon." She snorted. "But I've spent a lot of my life in the spotlight because of him. So that parts been kind of hard."

I looked back over at her. "I can't imagine what that's like." I looked down at my phone checking the time. "Where are these shooting stars at?"

Videl looked up at the sky. She furrowed her eyebrows. "Hmph. That sucks." She sighed. "I've never seen a shooting star before."

I blinked. "Never ever?"

She chuckled nervously. "Is that so strange?"

I laughed. "Well yeah, kind of!" I smiled. "I live out in the country waaaaayyyy in the middle of nowhere. There are so many stars in the sky… it's almost overwhelming. It definitely is enough to make someone feel so…" I searched the sky trying to find the answer. "Insignificant."

It was quiet. I glanced down at my phone. They should have been here by now.I furrowed my eyebrows. "Hey Videl," I looked over at her.

She looked back at me. "Yeah?"

I scooted closer to her. She inhaled nervously and I smirked. "Close your eyes." I murmured.

She scooted back. "What?"

I chuckled. "Just do it." I insisted. She crinkled her nose in dismay. She sighed finally obliging and closing her eyes falling back on the blanket. I looked up at the sky. I looked back down at Videl. "Keep them closed!"

"I will!" She exclaimed.

I stood to my feet. I hovered slowly ascending the roof that we were laying on. I quietly went higher and higher and higher paying close attention to Videl making sure her eyes were closed. I looked up at the sky searching for all the stars I could see. I powered up slightly hitting every star I could find with blasts of kamehameha waves. I descended quickly quietly touching the ground beside Videl. She was sitting up with her forehead pressed against her knees and her eyes tightly shut. I knelt down behind her putting my hands on her shoulders. She jumped slightly under my hands. "Look up." I whispered.

We looked up. Stars started falling down. She gasped. "Oh my Kami! Gohan look!" She looked up at me smiling excitedly.

I moved over sitting closely beside her. "It's beautiful isn't it?" I swallowed hard.

Videl looked up at me and leaned back again looking up at the sky. "Yeah. It's incredible." She leaned in slightly falling on my shoulder. I smiled watching the stars in an endless cycle of breaking and falling showering the sky with blue and red light. Nothing could be more perfect than this.

A/N: A little advice from Vegeta never hurt
