answer! Also. :: insert word here:: = an action
Chapter 4
Waiting for an Answer
"G- go on a date with you?" Videl said, surprised. Just as she said this, Gohan walked up. He was shocked at what he heard. Trunks asked out Videl? How could he? Then he remembered that Trunks didn't know that he like Videl. He stood there and waited for her answer, just like Trunks was.
Just as she opened her mouth to speak, the bell rang. She quickly collected her things and ran to her next class.
DAMN! Trunks thought as he stood up to see Gohan staring at him. "Oh hi, Gohan. I didn't see you there." He said, wondering what the look on Gohan's face meant. Maybe he really does like her. He thought, feeling a little ashamed at what he'd just done.
Gohan tried to think up something cool to say. making it seem like he didn't care about what just had happened. But the best he could do was, "So, you asked out Videl, huh? I said 'be nice' not, 'be her boyfriend'" His voice had changed from 'cool' to angry by the end of the sentence. Wow, I really suck at sounding cool. He thought.
"Sorry man. You didn't tell me you liked her." Trunks replied. His eyes narrowed as he said this, as if he were waiting for Gohan to attack him at any moment.
"L- like her? Oh, I don't like her. I was just. um, surprised that you do." Kami, I sound like a complete idiot. I'm such a bad liar!
"Oh, well good. Then I won't cancel my invitation." Said Trunks, with an evil grin on his face (A/N: Hey, he is Vegita's son! Trunks fans: please don't get angry!). Hey, if he would do something to stop me, instead of lying like that, maybe he'd be the one asking her out. It's his own fault. Trunks thought, trying to justify what he had done.
That jerk. he knows I'm lying.. Gohan thought. He was more sad than angry.
The two 'friends' continued to their next class, talking about other stuff as if nothing was wrong. When they got there, Videl's seat was empty. As they sat down, Gohan turned around and asked Erasa, "Where's Videl?"
"Oh, she used that 'I need to help with police work' excuse to get out of class again. I think something was really bothering her though." Erasa explained.
Trunks heard all of this. He didn't understand why Videl would do that. Then he looked at Gohan. He knew for sure that Gohan liked Videl. But Videl said that she didn't like Gohan.. She lied to me. she does like Gohan! Why else would she do that? He thought. Well, maybe there's someone else who she likes. Or maybe she just doesn't like me. Or maybe this doesn't have anything to do with me! Oh, I don't know.
Gohan was thinking almost exactly the same thing. Maybe she likes me! No, that can't be it. she must like someone else or something.. maybe this doesn't even have to do with Trunks or me.. Oh, I don't know.
The boys barely said a word to each other for the rest of the day. The each flew home separately.
At Bulma's House.
" How was your first day, Trunks?" Bulma asked as Trunks walked in.
"Oh, it was good Mom. I like school." He replied. Then he went up to his room (Well, actually, the spare room that Bulma had made up for him to stay in) and saw Chibi Trunks playing with his sword, fighting imaginary enemies.
"Hey kid! That's my sword! Don't mess with it. It's NOT a toy!" Mirai Trunks yelled, grabbing the sword away from his chibi self.
"Gosh, you're mean. I was just playing with it!" Chibi Trunks said.
"GET OUT!" Mirai Trunks screamed, and the little purple- haired boy ran out of the room.
Wow, he yells as loud as Dad does! Chibi Trunks thought as he went back to the living room to watch TV.
At Gohan's house.
"Did you have fun with Trunks today, Gohan?" Chi Chi asked her oldest son when he returned from school.
"Um, sure, Mom, lots of fun." He lied. He ran up to his room as quickly as he could to avoid his mother and Goten. He didn't need them asking him about his shitty day at school, or about that asshole, Trunks.
He started on his homework but couldn't concentrate. He lied on his bed and thought about Videl and Trunks.. Why was this happening? Why him? Why didn't Videl say yes to Trunks? Maybe she feels the same way about me as I do about her.. I hope so. he thought.
The next day at OHS.
Gohan arrived at school to see Trunks and Videl standing at Trunks' locker. He was afraid to go up to them, so he waited at a safe distance for them to go away. I hope she's not saying yes about that date.. he thought nervously.
"So, Videl, do you have an answer about that date?" Trunks asked. He did a great job of sounding cool, even though he was extremely nervous (unlike Gohan).
"Um, I don't think we should. my father doesn't want me to date." Was her excuse. This was kind of true, he didn't like her dating, but it was allowed. She just didn't want to go out with Trunks. There was someone else she was interested in.
Gohan could tell by the look on Trunks' face that whatever she had just said had angered him. She must have said no! He though, a smile coming across his face.
Meanwhile, Trunks wasn't so happy. "Do you always do whatever your father says?" he asked. She could hear the disappointment in his voice but she knew she couldn't give in.
"Well, usually." Was her answer, and she walked away.
Trunks stormed off toward the bathroom. Gohan hoped he wouldn't hurt anyone. He went to his locker and then to homeroom. He took his usual seat next to Videl. He couldn't help but smile at her.
"What are you so happy about?" she asked. He noticed that the mean tone that was usually in her voice wasn't there, but she was still frowning, as usual.
"Oh, nothing. I just found out that the girl I like is still single." He answered without thinking. Then he realized that he might have said too much. He smiled again and pretended to be busy with some work.
Videl suddenly felt angry. Why do I care if Gohan likes some girl? She thought, even thought she knew the answer deep down. She was also curious, so she decided to ask some questions. "Oh really? What's her name?"
"Huh?" Gohan asked, panicked. Videl finding out that he liked her would be almost as bad as everyone finding out he was the Great Saiyaman!
Just as she was about to repeat her question, Trunks walked in, giving both Gohan and Videl the death glare. Then he sat down on the other side of the room, staring at the two of them like Videl had been staring at Gohan the day before.
Videl knew that if Trunks saw her talking to Gohan, he would be angry, so she dropped the subject and stared straight ahead to the front of the classroom.
Man, that was close! Good thing Trunks came in when he did, or I'd be in trouble! Gohan thought.
I'm sure all of you G/V fans out there are happy about that chapter! On the other hand, I know you Trunks fans might not be. Don't worry though, there will be a happy ending for everyone! I'm a sucker for happy endings myself, as well as G/V fics. I want to thank everyone who reviewed! I'm so happy that you like my story. So stay tuned for Chapter 5!
