Hi! Sorry this took so long...My computer's been broken.Expect 5 chapters over the course of this weekend.


I want to address a few things:

One: Any use of stereotypes in this are for superficial reasons only. I personally don't believe in stereotypes, but they make for good laughs.

Two: Demon Dancing, leave your email and I'll send you something neat for being my 129th reviewer.

Three: To all of you who have commented on whether or not Trunks and Goten are a couple: It doesn't matter. This is a Gohan and Videl story. And I think the only use for me to pair them up would be for comedic purposes. They're a good laugh already.

Four: I am NOT anti yaoi. You'll notice this if you read some of my other stories. I write shounen ai, people! Just not in this story.


Thanks for all the stupendous reviews!!





And now, the long awaited Part 2, chapter 2!!!!





Why Videl Should Avoid Popular Restaurants.






Gohan put a hand to his forehead. "How do I get myself into these situations?"

"I dunno, sensei! But hey, what can your lowly student do to help you out!"

"Mirai, what the hell are you doing here?!"

***



"Well, it's nice to see you too Gohan-sensei!"

"You know that's not what I said."

"Well, a guy can hope is alternate universe future teacher has a few manners!"

"It's me who needs manners?! What are you doing here, Mirai?"

"Actually, I've been informed of a little problemo between you and Miss Videl.I met her today--she's quite the hottie, by the way, and I am just the thing to fix a broken relationship!"

"Oh really?"

"Chicks dig the hair."

"Chicks think you're the sensitive gay type."

"I am not! I'll have you know I was engaged to a lovely young lass in my timeline!" Trunks thought it best not to mention this lovely lass' identity, or why he was no longer enegaged to her. He didn't sense any good coming from that.

"So...One question. Why do you know about Videl?"

"Well, gee, in my timeline, you were kinda married to her."

Gohan stared.



***

Videl pondered the man she had met earlier as she walked through the campus garden.

'Mirai Trunks. What a strange name...'.

She pondered a bit more.

'He seemed like the sensitive gay type...'

But still, Videl couldn't shake the feeling that the guy looked familiar. Like someone she had met before...


***


"In your timeline, I was married to Videl."

"Well yeah. And then, you guys both kicked the bucket."

"But, in your timeline, I was married to Videl."

"Uh huh. Which is why, when I felt some kind of ripple in the timestream, I knew something must be wrong, so I--"

"In your timeline, I was married to Videl."

"Alright, I'll admit it! Bulma made me come!"

Gohan looked at Mirai with something akin to disbelief. "In your timeline, I was married to Videl."

Mirai was feeling slightly annoyed. "Yes. Because you got married, you have a lovely daughter who won't be born if you don't get your act together!!! So you're going to go make up, RIGHT NOW!!!"

That shook Gohan out of his trance. "Oh, I can't. I have a date tonight."

Mirai's eye twitched.

But then he thought about it. 'Maybe I could make Videl jealous of Gohan and this other girl!'

"So...Where you guys going?"

"Oh..Out to eat at some restaurant called 'Akebeko'."

Mirai smiled a scary little smile.



***


Videl wasn't paying attention when she ran into someone just ahead of her. She looked up to see the odd man from before. "Hello Mirai."

"Hello Videl. Actually,I was looking for you..." He mumbled as he bent over to pick up her books, offering several million of his fangirls a nice view of his backside. "I wanted you to go to dinner with me."

Videl was startled.'Maybe not so gay.' She hadn't been out on a date since...Well, since that traitorous backstabber with the adorable smile and cute backside--AARG! Maybe it was time to try something new.

"Uh sure...I guess. When?"

"Actually tonight. I had a meeting with my mother at the Akebeko planned, but she cancelled last minute. So I figured 'Why not take that lovely Videl?'" He laughed, and she joined hesitantly.

"Sure."

"I'll pick you up at seven."

Videl scrawled her dorm number and room on a scrap of notebook paper and shoved it into his hand. "Sure thing."

As she smiled at Mirai, he felt his heart stop. The smile that was so achingly similar to hers...He shook it off, and smiled back.


***


Gohan forced a smile on his face as he held out his arm to the 'lovely Reika'. She smelled like the makeup department at Bloomingdales, and was wearing what Gohan would describe as a piece of red dental floss. If it had been Videl, she would have been dressed much classier...

'Reika is not Videl. No one is Videl...'

Gohan exercised a little more willpower to keep the smile fixed on his face. "Shall we?"

As Reika smiled, Gohan's sensitive sight picked up the slight cracks in her cakey makeup. He lips were overly red, too, he noticed. The color of raw hemorroids.

"We shall." She replied in a voice that she might have consided *shudder* seductive.'C'mon Gohan, just one night with the witch,' he thought to himself.

This was going to be hell.




***




Mirai Trunks had to admit, the girl looked good. Videl was dressed tastefully in a midnight blue ansemble, with a light touch of makeup-- Not too much. She really was a naturally pretty girl. He offered her his arm.

"Shall we?"

She smiled, and Mirai's sensitive sight could see no flaws in her perfect, natural skin. Her lips were a light pink color, like winter rose.

"We shall."She replied in a voice that was innocently seductive, and it caused Trunks to shudder despite himself. 'C'mon Trunks, think FUTURE MOTHER IN LAW...'he thought to himself.

This was going to be hell.



***



Gohan surveyed the restaurant, wondering briefly about the eeire smile Trunks had displayed earlier when he had mentioned the Akebeko. (Sorry, couldn't resist.)He and Reika had already ordered, and he could see nothing AMUSING about the place.

As he looked to his left, he knew why as he watched the two enter with a sinking feeling in his stomach. "Oh god."

Reika looked up. "What's wrong, Gohan, darling?"

Gohan looked positively green, much like his Namekian friend. "I-- I need to--I need to leave!" He rose, and turned, before running strainght into the waiter carrying his and Reika's food choices. The waiter fell onto him, and Gohan in turn fell into Reika, sending them into a pile of food, dental floss, and tuxedos.

"Gohan, you're standing on my boob!"


"Sorry, I couldn't quite see trough the fog of horseradish dip."

"Ugh!"

"But it was really fortunate about the shrimp going up my nose! Now I can't smell your horrible, tasteless perfume."

"AAAAARG!"

As they untangled themselves, Gohan grinned roguishly. "Listen Reika, I don't think it's going to work out. You just aren't my type."

The girl was outraged. "You aren't my type either."

"I know. I just don't pay for lapdances."

"Are you calling me a whore?!"

"You said it, not me!"

"AAAAAAAAAAAAARG!!"

Reika stormed out.




***



Videl couldn't help it. The whole situation as she and Mirai walked in was just so funny! THe man in the tuxedo was telling the stutishly dressed woman off, and he was doing it with a piece of shrimp stuck up his nose!

She started giggling.




***



Gohan heard giggling coming from behind him. He turned, and founfd himself lost in a familiar pair of blue eyes.



End Chapter 2


Yay!

It's been a while, eh? More soon. Just lemme sleep a little.



Teaser--


Gohan walked into his room to see something quite unusual.

Trunks, wearing nothing but a towel, was dancing seductively to Gloria Estefan music holding a pencil as a mic.

"Oh, the joys of college."


See you next time, space cowboy
