A/N:  I'm back again!  I thought that since I took so long with the last chapter, I better write this as quickly as possible. (That and I'm bored ^^)

I really don't have anything to say other then watching Gohan as a small child running around drunk and singing about fried up octopi is waaaaay funnier then it has any right to be. ^______________^  I was laughing really hard when I watched that again, and I'm really tempted to make a teenage Gohan get drunk like that and sing that song… Granted, not in this story, but maybe in one of my Law stories… *grins maliciously*

Disclaimer; No.  I never have and never will own Dragon Ball Z.

The limo pulled up in front of Orange Star. 

The chauffeur walked around and opened the door for the occupants.  The two couples stepped out and waved goodbye to Chibi, who had decided to return to Capsule Corps, rather than go to the dance alone.

As soon as they entered the gym, music pounded on them. 

Erasa immediately dragged Sharpener off to dance leaving Gohan and Videl alone. 

Videl led Gohan over to the wall, attempting to get adjusted to the assault on their senses.  The song ended and a slow dance came on. 

Gohan turned to Videl and led her out onto the floor.  Wrapping his arms firmly around her tiny waist, they began to rotate slowly. 

Videl closed her eyes.  Everything was perfect, so warm… It felt as if, for once, everything was right with the world. Videl fought the urge to nuzzle Gohan.  ^If only we were 'together' and it was all right to cuddle…^ Instead, she contented herself with simply resting her head on his chest with a sigh.  This was the way life was supposed to be. 

Unconsciously the two pulled each other closer and closer, twirling slowly. 

Gohan lowered his head until his chin rested lightly on top of Videl's bowed head.  He felt so comfortable like this, as if Videl was made to be in his arms, they were a perfect fit. 

Too soon the song ended, and they pulled away reluctantly.  To Videl's pleasure Gohan's hand lingered on her waist, guiding her gently off the dance floor.  They stood back and listened to the next song, shouting comments to each other over the pulsing beat. 

The next song was another fast one, but this time Videl pulled Gohan out to dance it. 

They began moving together to the beat, again gravitating together.  They were soon close enough that there was barely a breath of space between them. 

Videl's eyes closed half way in pleasure and Gohan had a Vegeta like smirk on his face.  This was fun!  They were in sync, dancing to a rhythm all their own. 

They hadn't been dancing long before the dancers nearest them pulled away to watch, a circle forming around them. 

They danced on, completely oblivious to everything but each other.  As if responding to the catcalls and cheers coming from the spectators, they seemed to get even closer. 

Erasa glanced up from where she and Sharpener were dancing a short way off.  She grinned, ^Finally!^ 

Without saying anything, she poked her long time boyfriend in the ribs, and jerked her thumb in their direction.  Sharpener's eyes widened and he lowered his head to yell in her ear. 

"Kami!  It's like they're having sex on the dance floor!" 

Erasa smirked, shouting over the music to be heard, "Hell yes!" 

They exchanged a lecherous grin.  Sharpener's eyes suddenly glinted. 

"I think they just might have the right idea!"  He yelled as he dragged a giggling Erasa out behind the school.

Chibi sighed moodily as the streets flashed by. 

Instead of going straight to CC, she instructed the limo driver to drop her off at the park.  He was reluctant at first, 'the young lady might get hurt', but she tipped him and he agreed, despite his misgivings. 

She stepped out and smiled at the man. 

"Thank you, please don't wait around.  I'll probably be awhile and I can just catch a cab." 

The chauffeur nodded and pulled away, leaving Chibi alone. 

Chibi smiled sadly and walked along a trail on the edge of a sparkling lake. 

^Kami I miss him… it's only been a couple of days, and I already miss him so much…^ 

She sat down on a bench at the shore of the lake.  She silently gazed out at the moonlight reflecting off the water.  It was so lovely…

^Earth is so pretty, it's a shame that Shin can't be here with me…^

A single tear slipped unchecked down her cheek. 

She stayed like that for some time, just sitting and daydreaming.  Finally she sighed and stood up, she'd better get back so Bulma wouldn't worry.  She shivered in the slight breeze as she looked out at the lake one last time, preparing to leave. 

Suddenly something warm was wrapped around her shoulders. 

~It's too cold out here to be dressed like that~ commented a warm voice in her mind. 

Her eyes widened and she gasped, whirling in the arms of her one and only. 

She buried her face on his shoulder and wrapped her arms around him, she never wanted to let him go. 

~You didn't really think that I'd be too busy, did you?~  He teased her gently. 

She giggled slightly in response.  ~Of course I was worried you wouldn't show!  You have an important job and I know it.~ 

He simply squeezed her, blanketing their bond in love. 

"So- do you want to go to this dance thing?"  Shin asked, breaking the comfortable silence. 

Chibi tipped her head back to look him in the eyes as a mischievous look passed over her features. 

"Gee, I don't know about you, but I've missed my Shin.  I want quality time with my mate and I have a feather bed with satin sheets back at Capsule Corps." 

Shin's eyes gleamed as he chuckled. 

"And I don't know about YOU, but my life has been rather stressful without my precious Chibi to make me laugh.  I saw we screw the dance." 

Chibi giggled at the turn of phrase.  ^he's been overly exposed to me!^ 

With a smirk, she put her hand to her forehead and the two disappeared from the shores of the lake.

It was yet another slow dance, and Gohan and Videl were rotating slowly on the dance floor once more. 

Videl smiled- she'd never been so comfortable as she was when she was in Gohan's arms. 

Gohan smiled as well- he'd never been so comfortable as he was now, Videl held tightly in his arms. 

The song ended but rather than pulling back, Gohan pulled Videl up into a kiss. 

Videl had fantasized about this so many times that her reaction was the ideal one; she kissed him back.  Gohan wasn't sure what had made him kiss her, most likely his Saiya-jin instincts kicking in, but he was glad he had.  Now he knew for sure that she returned at least some of the feelings that he had for her.  He wasn't sure if she loved him the way he loved her, but at least now he knew she liked him. 

They pulled away an inch and gazed into each other's eyes. 

Gohan lowered his lips down next to her ear and whispered quietly, so close that it tickled, "I love you." 

Videl's spine tingled as she heard those words.  She smiled and returned the gesture, pulling his ear next to her own lips.  "And I love you." 

Suddenly the bitchy teacher from hell came up to separate them. 

They grinned and grabbed hands, running outside laughing. 

In the shelter of some nearby trees, Gohan pulled Videl into a tender hug. 

"I love you Videl; I've loved you since I first met you, bitchy attitude and all!" 

Videl grinned at his good natured teasing. 

"I love you too Son-chan, I've loved you since we first met, well maybe not that early… But still…"  Their laughter was cut short with another kiss. 

Everything really was all right with the world.

A/N: *sighs happily* Ah me… Kami, that was the sappiest thing I have EVER written!  Usually I write funny stuff or really angsty poetry, but that… I really don't know where that came from…

Don't worry, this is NOT all, there's quite a bit more actually.  I have plenty planned, and after this it'll probably get a little more funny, but I'll keep plenty of romance in there still…

Please review and tell me whether you like the sap… How much is healthy?  I don't want this to get too sappy-happy, but when the muse strikes… *glares pointedly at Tess-chan*

T-chan;  Hey!  It isn't MY fault!!!

Is too!  I don't see any OTHER muses hanging around.

Oh, and sorry to those of you who might be wanting a lemon, I'm still inexperienced in that area, and I'm really not comfortable writing that stuff. (besides this is pg-13, not nc-17)

However, to appease your hentai appetites, I will have kissing and maybe the tiniest bits of either the beginning or end of a lemon, but I will leave the rest up to your imagination. 

(Besides, this is a shared computer and there is a chance that my parents or brothers could be reading this!)

Review, and I'll get the next chapter out soon!  Ja'ne!
