Videl was sitting there on Gohan's bed. She was waiting to see whether he'd
forgive her or not. Gohan looked at her, as she started to cry. She didn't
want to cry because then he might feel sorry for her, and she didn't want
that.
"I don't know how to react to this Videl," said Gohan. "I don't even know how I feel about the situation. All I know is that I still love you, and I'm not going to give you up."
Videl looked up at him. Tears in her eyes.
"You still love me?" she asked.
"Yeah I do," replied Gohan.
"Then I'm going to do everything I can to regain your trust," said Videl. "I promise you that I will make this up to you."
"You don't have to do anything Videl," said Gohan. "All I want you to do is love me and be there for me when I need you."
"I do love you, and from now on I'll be there for you always," cried Videl. "I promise you that you will never be alone again. Anytime, anywhere you just call and I'll be by your side. I..."
"OK, Videl that's enough, I get the picture," Gohan laughed.
Then Gohan sat on the bed next to her. He took her hand. Then he leaned in and kissed her. It was the most sweetest and softest kiss she had ever received. She was glad he didn't kick her out of his life. She didn't know what she would do without him.
"It's real late, you can stay here tonight, but it'll have to be on the couch," said Gohan. "My Mom would die if she saw you in here with me."
"OK, but can you promise me something," she asked.
"Yeah, sure what is it," he said.
"Tomorrow morning will you go and talk to Trunks. Like I said he didn't do anything wrong. You can't let him leave thinking that you hate him. You're the only friend he's got. Promise me," she said.
"OK, I promise. You're right I am all he's got. I will go first thing tomorrow, all right," said Gohan. "Now lets get you set up on the couch."
They went downstairs, and he got some blankets for Videl. He gave her a kiss then went back up to his room. He was proud of the way he handled that. he knew his father would have done the same. He wished his father were there with him. Goku would have been proud. Gohan fell asleep shortly after climbing in bed.
The next morning Gohan got up and snuck out of the house before Videl woke up. He went to Trunks' apartment. He hoped that Trunks hadn't left yet. He knocked on the door and Trunks answered.
"What do you want now, are you making sure that I'm leaving?" sarcastically asked Trunks.
"No, I cam to tell you that I'm sorry," said Gohan. "Videl told me the whole story and I realized you are not to blame for any of this."
"Yes, I am, I could have said no to her," said Trunks.
"No, you couldn't, she's too hard to resist. There was no way you would have said no to her," laughed Gohan. "Are you still leaving?"
"Yeah, I should get back to my Mom, she misses me," said Trunks.
"Well, I'm going to miss you too," said Gohan.
Trunks already had all his stuff together; all he had to do was throw the capsule for his time machine.
"I'll come back soon Gohan," said Trunks.
"You better," said Gohan.
They hugged and said their good-byes. Then Trunks got in his time machine and went back to his time. Gohan went back home and started making breakfast. On his way home though he made a pit stop at a jewelry shop to pick something up.
When he got home Videl was in the bathroom. He figured she was taking a shower so he didn't bother her. She came out and saw breakfast sitting on the table. Then she walked up to Gohan and kissed him. They smiled at each other then sat down and ate.
"You shouldn't have done this Gohan," said Videl. "I definitely don't deserve it."
"You do to deserve it," said Gohan. "And after you eat I have a surprise for you."
"Well, I wasn't going to say anything yet, but I have a surprise for you too," smiled Videl.
"OK, but I'm going first," said Gohan.
"Sure you can go first," she said.
They finished eating and Gohan got up. He walked over to Videl. He pulled this tiny black box out of his pocket, and then he got on one knee. He opened the box to reveal the most beautiful diamond ring she has ever seen.
"Videl," he said. "Will you marry me?"
She was in shock. She didn't know what to say.
"Of course. Yes, I will marry you Gohan!" said Videl.
Gohan slipped the ring onto her finger. She stared at it for a while.
"OK, so what was your surprise?" asked Gohan.
"Oh yeah, I almost forgot," said Videl. "OK, now I still have to follow up on this to find out for certain but..."
Gohan couldn't wait to hear the words. He knew what she was going to say, and he just wanted her to say it.
"I'm pregnant!"
"I don't know how to react to this Videl," said Gohan. "I don't even know how I feel about the situation. All I know is that I still love you, and I'm not going to give you up."
Videl looked up at him. Tears in her eyes.
