Stuck in a Closet
Chapter 9
By Anime-Girl
---------------------
"Will you...would you like to..." Gohan started to say. Videl looked at him curiously and hopefully. She waited patiently for what he was to say.
"Um-do you want an extra flying lesson on Friday?" Gohan mentally slapped his head. *Darn it! That wasn't what I was going to say! Why can't I just ask her to the prom?*
Videl looked at him oddly, she was surprised that he didn't even know that the prom was on that same day. He wasn't going to ask her, maybe he didn't even like her. She sighed and stared at the floor and back at his face. Her face was full of disappointment and Gohan blinked, confused.
"Uhm- I'm kind of busy that day..." her voice trailed off, and Gohan's eyes shifted from the awkwardness. She walked away silently, leaving a confused Gohan behind.
Erasa's House....
"He doesn't even know that the prom is on Friday?! You've got to be kidding me!" Erasa exclaimed.
"Nope, I'm not. Damn... he asked me if I wanted to have an extra flyi- crap," Videl cursed for being so careless.
"That's weird though, I got Sharpener to make him ask you to the prom- oh shoot. Heh, ignore what I just said," Erasa smiled sheepishly hoping that Videl didn't hear what she had just said.
"Alright, I'm not going to the stupid prom. I wasn't planning on going, I don't have a date, it's useless and boring. I'm just going to be sitting there while couples danced and there's still crime to fight. I'm not going!"
"Awwww, come on Videl! It'll still be fun! Please come! Pleeease?" Erasa begged with a puppy dog eyes.
"That does not work on me! Only Gohan's little brother can get to me. When you do it, it's just scary!" Erasa still kept the look until Videl finally gave in. "Fine! That's too scary. I'll go if you cut that out!" Erasa cheered pumping her fist in the air. Videl just sighed, *I don't know how she always gets to me somehow."
Night of the prom...
Gohan's bedroom...
*Geez! Why'd I have to ask her that! Now she'll think I'm a total idiot! She'll probably go with someone else who does deserve her and is good enough for her! Argh!* Gohan banged his head constantly against the head board of his bed.
"GOHAN! STOP BANGING YOUR HEAD!" a female voice shouted from the kitchen. It was the one and only Chi-Chi.
"Sorry mom!" Gohan called out. He flipped over and lay on his stomach. He stared at the tuxedo that he had rented for the prom. *I don't know why I even bother trying to ask her sometimes. I just screw up and end up looking like a total idiot in front of her.*
He stood up from his bed and looked out the window. The golden sun was setting behind the mountains. The beautiful sunset, he watched it every evening, and yet he never grew tired of it, he felt peaceful and was in deep thought. That particular night, he was thinking of only Videl.
Gohan looked down at his watch. 7:30 PM. *I only have thirty minutes*
The Orange Star High Prom...
Videl groaned and took another sip of water. She rubbed her forehead and groaned again as a slow song played. Couples were getting onto the dance floor, slow dancing. Videl couldn't take it anymore. She was practically the only one left sitting down. Everyone was on the dance floor. She was right before, this was pointless and boring without a date. She stood up from her chair and walked slowly to the door without anyone noticing her. When she reached the exit, there stood a tall figure in the doorway looking down at Videl.
"Gohan...?"
