notes: Gohan 'n Videl, there just aren't enough of these fan fictions,
especially song fics sooo when I heard this song on my CD player one night I
knew the song "Falling for the First Time" by the Barenakedladies would be
perfect for Gohan and Videl fic. Teen Gohan has won my admiration for now in
the " The Great Saiyaman Saga" it's so kawaii the "geek super hero" In this fic
I go AU for the unmasking of Great Saiyaman, so it's not what really happened
just my imagination. All underlined things are song lyrics.Ja ne enjoy!
"Bye
Kaasan!" teen Gohan said as he raced out the door and up towards the sky in his
"super hero, The Great Saiyaman (the defender of Satan City!) Attire"
This
morning however his thought were more focused on a certain classmate of his
rather than the safety of the city or his direction towards Orange Star high
school.
I'm so cool, too bad I'm a loser
"I know
being a super hero can be tough but shouldn't I seem just a little bit cooler
than I am now? Maybe my motto's need work…" Gohan privately thought to himself.
I'm so smart, too bad I can't get
anything figured out
Then an old familiar thought
entered his mind: "Why did you have to go Tousan? Couldn't you have just used
instant transmission back right before Cell exploded?" Gohan cringed at this
thought he knew he hadn't really been the cause of the death of his father but
in some way he felt responsible for it. His thoughts then transfixed on his
school. "And Videl, there's something I'll never figure I bet I'm being
henpecked already (just like my mom!) I don't think she'll blackmail me (you
never know though…) even if she does know who I really am but I can't imagine
telling her about my little family "secret" I hope everyone has forgotten about
the "Gold fighter" I should have never done that I bet that's been made a
legend out of…"
I'm so brave, too bad I'm a baby
I'm so fly, that's why
probably why it feels just like I'm falling for the first time
Gohan
jumped back as he realized he's nearly missed his target and narrowly avoided
smashing into a window by putting a burst of speed upright. He landed in his
usual spot and pressed the blue button on his watch to return to his normal
school clothing. Quickly he rushed into class about five minutes before class
had started.
I'm so green, it's really amazing I'm so clean, too bad I can't get all the
dirt off meI'm so sane; it's driving me crazy
Gohan took his usual seat. Arisa
greeted him. He glanced around seeing all the students with normal lives who
would never really knew who really beat Cell, although that really
didn't bother him…too much he was never one to hold a grudge, wait a minute, a
correction for that would be he never held a grudge against anything that
hadn't harmed his family or friends in some way, which reminded him of the
thing called "think before you act" (or say, sometimes Gohan said some pretty
idiotic things; fitting in is a weird thing) he commented to himself.
It's so strange, I can't believe it
Feels just like I'm falling for the first
time
Then there was
Videl…Class had started, nearly all the time while he vigorously took notes,
her stone gaze resided on him. He wished she'd stop it, it really made him
nervous. If there was one person who could set him straight she was staring
right at him. Gohan never knew exactly why.
Anyone perfect must be lying, anything
easy has it's costAnyone plain can be lovely, anyone loved
can be lost
Perhaps a
certain thought in the demi-saiyan's mind never let his real feelings take
over. So many close calls he'd had already with Videl, from nearly unmasking
him to a near fatal bus crash. The people he cared most about always were most
vulnerable. Like Vegeta had with less severity (just a little) No doubt the
demi-saiyan had knew that Videl would unmask him sooner or later, he just chose
to ignore it.
What if I lost my direction? What if I
lost sense of time?
What if I nurse this infection? Maybe the worst is
behind
Feels just like I'm falling for the first
time
So many
things like that Gohan chose to ignore and bury himself in books (though most
of the time involuntarily, due to his Kaasan) Maybe saving the city was the
least of his worries, he just needed time to be himself and he really couldn't
unless he was around his family for fear of 99% of the human population didn't
find it quite normal to go lifting up cars and sparing faster than an eye could
see. All the more better for The Great Saiyaman to be around.
I'm so chill, no wonder it's freezing
I'm so still, I just can't get my fingers out of
anything
Videl's watch began to
beep and Gohan's saiyan ears heard every word she was saying to the police
chief.
"Videl
urgent, robbery at your house , I think there are some thieves you need to deal
with", the watch responded.
The teacher
droned one while Videl rushed out the door as usual for her police work. And
soon Gohan would too. Fortunately he had never rushed off on this particular
teacher before, so he guessed the teacher would let him out (to the bathroom…)
I'm so thrilled to finally be failing
I'm so done, turn me over 'cause it
Feels just like I'm failing for the first
time
So what if
his grades suffered a bit he knew exactly what he was doing in school and
besides Videl needed his help, though she would never admit to it.
Videl was in her caspuled copter
smirking and driving very fast, while the Great Saiyaman followed behind out of
the view, Videl knew he was there.
"Finally I'll unmask him!" she
said silently to herself with joy.
Videl entered her house carefully,
she knew there were no robbers she'd set this up and prepared to catch Mr.
Saiyaman herself.
Gohan followed in pursuit of Videl.
Cautiously he entered the house with his saiyan vision split secondly noticed
the trap he was about to step into and narrowly avoided being caught in a net.
He wondered if Videl was ok.
"HAAAAA!" a voiced shouted from
behind while Gohan ducked an attacker that came rushing on to him, however he
didn't disarm the trap from the front door that proved to be a mistake and
found himself hanging upside by his foot in a net.
"I caught you!" the voice said
sounding feminine, Gohan sweat dropped it was Videl, he'd walked into a step
up. Gohan chuckled to himself. It took him a second or two to bust right out of
the net.
"Think you could catch me did you?"
he said trying to sound super heroish.
Anyone plain can be lovely, anything
loved can be lostMaybe I lost my direction, what if my
love is the cost*Anyone perfect must be lying, anything
easy has it's costWhat if I lose my direction? What if I
lost sense of time?What if I nursed this infection?Maybe the worst is behind
"No
I already caught you" she said
and a second later added "Gohan"
It was then Gohan realized his
helmet had fallen askew off when he'd been catch in the net.
He smiled weakly at Videl's smug
grin. This was the start of something.
And it feels just like I'm falling for
the first time

notes: * meant
that I changed the lyrics there to make it fit in with the fic, the real lyric
was What if our love is the cost. Well hope you enjoyed it!
Please review and tell me what you think!
