The Date- Part One
A/N: Hi guys! I know that I haven't updated in a while I'M SOOOO SORRY!!! *starts banging head on desk* I have been brain dead and school takes precedence. I'll get to the story now so I don't bore you all to death before you can read the chapter. Oh yeah, this chapter will have mild IM usage if not none, hence what the last chapter was called and what this one is titled. Thoughts are italicized.
Disclaimer: Must I have to endure this torture?!?!!? *Everyone screams YES!!!* All right, if I must, but I will only do it for the fans sake. I DON'T OWN DBZ!!!!

The next four days passed by with lightning speed, or at least that's what it seemed like for two specific teens. Friday afternoon after what the prison that people like to call school ended, Gohan flew as quickly as possible, somehow managing not to get stopped by someone who needed Saiyaman's help. "Hi mom and Goten, I'm home! I'm going out with a friend to the fair and dinner afterwards at 7 so I probably won't be back until around 10," Gohan told his mom who had just walked into the room with chibi Goten running, or rather sprinting, behind.
"Alright," she replied calmly, "but who is this 'friend' of yours? Do I know them?"
"Remember Videl, the girl I taught how to fly and bring out her energy? She's one of the people in the group I hang out with at school. Besides, we're just going out to have some fun, nothing more than that."
"Gohan, can I come with you to the fair, please?? Like you said, you all are just going out to have some fun," he pleaded.
"No, Goten-chan. I don't want you to interrupt their date. Finally!! I'm gonna have grandkids!!" she squealed in delight at the thought of being a grandmother.
"MOM!! We are just friends!" he replied hastily, his face turning beat red with embarrassment. "Nothing more than that." I wish we more than that. Hopefully after tonight, we will be each other's one and only. I've got to get ready and decide what to wear. Where should we go eat? I know I have about $80 saved up so we can play some games, have a few snacks, and probably hit the burger and malt shop for dinner. Wait, what am I thinking??!!?!
"This stinks," Goten pouted.
"Sorry Squirt, maybe next time. Oh yeah, tomorrow at five, Videl, Sharpner, Eresa, and me are all going to go see a movie. Is that ok?"
"Only if you finish you homework and chores first, but right now, I wouldn't be worrying about that. You need to get ready for your date. Oh my, my baby's growing up so fast right before my very own eyes."
"MOM!!"
"Sorry, your 'outing' with a girl," Chi Chi said, walking off with a devilish glint in her eyes as she tries to picture what her grandchildren would look like.

"WHAT! I will NOT allow you to go out on a DATE with some nerd-boy!!"
"Dad! It's not a 'date'. I'm just going to the fair and dinner with Gohan to have fun and hang out." Videl said.
"But I haven't met the guy. How will I know if he's going to do something to you?!!?"
"Dad, trust me. If I know Gohan, he wouldn't even hurt a fly. Plus if he does 'try' and do something to me, I can protect myself. I'm 18 years old, Dad. I think I can take care of myself. Now, I'm going to go get ready." Videl ran up the spiral staircase and say that it was already 6:15. Shoot! I only have 45 minutes. She ran into the bathroom and turned on the shower on high and very hot and stepped in. Was dad right? Is this actually a date? Well. I have to find out from Gohan when I meet him, won't I? After a quick ten minutes of thinking, Videl turned off the water and wrapped a towel around her body and walked into the connecting room, her room. Now, what should I wear? It should probably be something comfy, yet not too revealing she thought as she looked through her walk-in closet and dresser. Bingo! Videl grabbed the clothes and walked back into the bathroom.
~*~
WHAT!! It's already 6:45! I've got to get a move on it. Gohan ran to his mini-dresser in only his pants and socks and pulled out a black turtleneck that clung to his muscular figure and found his black shoes, tying them instantly. Gohan went into the bathroom to give himself one last look-over to make sure he looked all right. Not half bad Gohan; you did pretty well. Wait, is this really a date? What does Videl want to call it? Oh well, I'll ask her later, but I'd better get going so I won't be late. He walked out of the bathroom, grabbed his money and headed down the hallway.
"Hey Gohan. Man, this must be one important date if you're dressing like that," Goten commented. "Can I PLEASE come with you all to the fair? Pretty please with sugar on top??"
"How many times do I have to say this, it's not a date?! What's wrong with this outfit?!!? And no you can't, maybe I'll take you some time when it's just you and me. How about that?"
"Okay!! Yay!!!" Goten ran down the hallway and out of sight while chanting on and on about how he was going to the fair sometime with Gohan.
Kids, you gotta love them, yet you've got to hate them. "Mom, I'm heading out now. I'll be back later. If you all get tired, go to bed and don't wait up for me."
"Have fun, dear," Chi Chi chimed. "Bye. Be careful!!"
"I will," Gohan called out as he flew up into the sky.
~*~
"Hey, Dad, I'm gone. I'll probably be back around ten. Don't wait up," Videl said as she walked out the door.
"Have fun and watch your back," he stated. "Bye Sweet pea. Just make sure you're back by, at the latest, 10:15."
"Ok." She shut the door and went out back to the alley to take off. I hope no one sees me doing this, thought Videl as she floats into the air. In no time, she touches down in some brush right beside the fair grounds and sees someone else. Huh? If I didn't know any better, I would say that that's Gohan. "Hey, Gohan. Did you fly here too?"
"What? Videl, is that you?? Oh, hi. Yeah, I did," he said walking over to her. When he was within a good distance, he scanned over her, too quick for the human eye to see. Videl was wearing blue jean low-rise hip huggers, white sneakers, and a powder blue shirt with a white bunny in the middle with one ear flopped over and the other standing straight up, which clung to every curve perfectly, as if it were made only for her to wear. Her hair was in a high ponytail instead of the normal pigtails and in her ears were large gold, hoop earrings. Whoa. I never noticed how good she looks. Since when does she have pierced ears??
What he never noticed was that she was doing the same thing. Videl noted that he was wearing a long sleeve, black turtleneck that greatly stuck to his muscles along with blue jeans and his black shoes that he wore everyday to school. Wow, I'm impressed. He looks a lot different than I realized. He's actually kinda cute. WAIT, did I just think that?!!? "Come on Gohan," she said, "let's go! I now that I'm going to win more prizes than you so I'll help you out."
"No you're not. How about a little wager? Whoever wins the fewest prizes buys dinner, sound fair?"
"You're on. I just hope that you brought enough money." They ran off together, straight to the midway. "Gohan. Let's both hold back twenty bucks so we have enough to by dinner for both of us."
"Alright. Let' the games, BEGIN!!" He ran off to a whack-a-mole booth followed be Videl.
"That will be $4 total for the both of you."
"Here," Gohan said as he handed the Carnie man the money.
"Alright folks, first one to get 150 points gets choice prize. On you're marks, get set... GOO!" *Riiing* Both teens moved with great speed and agility until they heard the bell ring. "I don't believe it. We have a tie folks. Numbers 9 and 10 have won!"
Gohan looked up and saw that he was number 9 and Videl was 10. "Whoa. Cool," he said.
"Take your pick kids."
'I'll take the green frog with the big eyes," Videl stated.
"I want a purple alien." The man handed them their prizes and they walked off shocked.
"I guess that makes it 1-1,"she said in a surprised tone. No one has ever beaten me or tied for that matter at that game!!
"Yup. Now you pick the next game"
~*~
Two hours later….
"I can't believe it, " Videl exclaimed. "We tied, 20-20. So what do we do?"
"Let's get a couple of boxes from the show rooms and go grab some dinner."
"Okay, but who's going to pay for dinner?"
"Don't worry about that. I've got it figured out. Hey, do you want to go to Phil's for dinner?"
Sure! They have great malts. Let's just walk there so we don't look suspicious; I mean, it's only ten minutes from here." Gohan nodded and they walked off together, side by side.
