The Date- Part Two

A/N: Hi everybody! MiraiGurl here to bring you another chapter. Sorry I haven't updated in a while. You know, 
school, shopping, and the all dreaded *dramatic music*… WRITER'S BLOCK! OH THE HORROR OF IT 
ALL!!!!! Have you all heard about the FanFiction.net split? Original stories will be moved onto a site called 
FictionPost.Net and the fanfics will stay on FanFiction.Net. Boy is this going to be confusing. I mean lots of 
authors, including me will have to deal with two websites. Anywhoo, I'd like to say a big thanks to 
Gohan-Kun Shin. THANKS FOR THE GOOD REVIEW!! Now, here's the second part of "The Date". 
-Means thoughts- and italics=song lyrics.

Disclaimer: I don't own DBZ never have and probably never will unless somehow I get a hold of his Will and Testament and add me on there saying that I will own it. Oh yeah, the song "Bring Me To Life" is from the CD Fallen by Evanescence. THIS GROUP ROXS!! YOU ALL MUST LISTEN TO THE CD!!

            ~At the restaurant~

            "Let me get this straight. You want 10 double-cheese burgers, 5 large curly fries, AND a large Vanilla Coke?" the guy said.

"Yeah. Videl, what do you want?"

"I thought you were ordering for the both of us. Do you mean to tell me that you're going to eat all of that?"

"Well, what I mean was… is this okay with you if we split this?"

"I'm probably going to eat one burger and some fries so I would cut back if I were you."

"Okay, but what do you want to drink?" he asked Videl.

"I'm going to get a mint chocolate malt."

"Okay, can you change that to three double-cheese burgers, three large curly fries, a large Vanilla coke, and a chocolate mint malt," he told the guy at the register.

"That will be $19.80." Videl and Gohan both pulled out their wallets to pay, but Gohan stopped Videl.

"This is my treat. I have enough money, and besides, I was the one who asked you to come" he explained as he handed the man the money.

"Okay, but I'm buying next time."

"Next time? Ok, but let's go find a table for now." -What does she mean next time?-

"Number 89, your order is ready."

"Hey, there's our food. Let's eat," Videl said. " Um, Earth to Gohan! You okay?"

"Wha-? Oh, yeah. I'm fine." He grabbed the two trays and followed Videl to a booth in the back of the restaurant and sat down. "I'm really glad we did this. Aren't you?"

"Yeah," she said in between bites, "This was fun. A lot better than if Sharpner and Eresa were here."

"You think so?" he asked.

"Most likely. All they would do is walk around and flirt with almost everyone they would see." Videl shuddered and made a face as she spoke.

"Now that you mention it. I can actually picture that. Eww…," Gohan replied. He crumpled his wrapper and opened his second burger. "You know, we will still have some time after we eat, so do you want to do anything else?"

"Do you want to go to the park?" she asked.

"Okay."

~30 minutes later~

"Man, that was good," said Gohan as they got up.

"I know. It was a good change from what I usually have to eat." Both teens left the restaurant and started walking.

"Where's the closest park?" he asked.

"About ten blocks away. Why?"

"Nothing. I was trying to judge how much time we have. Now, let's go," he answered and took her hand and walked down the street.           -What am I doing?! -

How can you see into my eyes like open doors
leading you down into my core
where I've become so numb without a soul my spirit sleeping somewhere cold
until you find it there and lead it back home wake me up inside
wake me up inside
call my name and save me from the dark
bid my blood to run
before I come undone
save me from the nothing I've become

~At the park~

"I really want to thank you for coming. I know that you probably had other things to do," said Gohan as they sat down on a bench.

"You're welcome. And besides, everything I do is boring, and like I said earlier, this was fun," she replied. "Oh, great. We have about fifteen minutes left. What do you want to do?"

"Sorry if this sounds stupid, but do you want to play on the swings? I could push you."

"Alright. I'd like that." They walk over and Videl sat on the middle swing away from two little kids.


Now that I know what I'm without
you can't just leave me
breathe into me and make me real
bring me to life

wake me up inside
wake me up inside
call my name and save me from the dark
bid my blood to run
before I come undone
save me from the nothing I've become
bring me to life

"Just to let you know, I push sorta hard so watch your head," Gohan warned. Videl sat down, and Gohan grabbed the chains and started to push lightly.

"I thought that you said that you push hard," she taunted.

"But I don't want to hurt you."

"Please?"

"Okay, but don't say I didn't warn you." With that he started to push harder and harder, gaining six inches to a foot with each push.

"Whoa! You were right. Gohan will you stop me for a minute?"

"Sure," he replied and grabbed the chains stopping her with a sudden jerk. "Oops. Sorry about that."

"It's okay," she stated as she got up. "Sit down on the swing. I want to show you something fun.

"Okay," he said, but was startled at she sat on his lap facing him. -Eep.-

"Now, start swinging and once we get a rhythm going, it'll be like a see-saw."

"Cool." He started swinging but the asked, "Videl, how much time do we have left?"

"Five minutes." -I wonder why he acts like such a nerd at school, but acts so cool now? I like this Gohan a lot better.-

 Frozen inside without your touch without your love darling only you are the life among the dead

 All this time I can't believe I couldn't see
 kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
 I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
 got to open my eyes to everything

"Gohan, we need to get going. I'll stop us this time so we don't go flying off," she said as she gracefully lowered he legs to the ground. They got off the swing and started walking off towards Videl's house. "Thanks for the great time, Gohan. I can't wait until tomorrow, but there's one thing I need to warn you about."

"What's that?" he asked.

"We'll need to act like this never happened while we are around Eresa and Sharpner because if they get the wrong thought into their minds, they spread it all over school.'

"Oh jeez... I won't. I promise." The rest of the walk was minor chatter about summer vacation, which was coming up in less than six weeks and what courses they were taking next year. "Well, here we are. Thanks for coming to the fair and dinner with me. I hope you had a good time."

"You bet I did. If I did any of this stuff with Dad, he would be going on and on about one of his upcoming matches. It would be awful, and I know this from experience. Two years ago that happened, and while he wasn't looking, I walked off and went back home."

"Oh, sorry."

"Hey, thanks for the fun night. See you tomorrow, Gohan." She walked over to him until she was right up to his side. "Goodnight," she said and stood on her tiptoes and gave his a peck on the cheek.

His face turned as red as a tomato and stammered, "G-g-goo-o-dnight, Videl." She laughed and went inside and closed the door, leaving Gohan there to stare into oblivion.
 
Without a thought without a voice without a soul
don't let me die here
there must be something more
bring me to life 

            "Excuse me Sonny, are you alright?"

            "Huh, what?" He looked away from where Videl was previously standing and says an elderly couple staring at him funny. " Oh, yes. Thank you." The couple walked off, and Gohan went behind Videl's house and took off into the night sky towards home and the full moon.

A/N: So, what did ya think? Let me know. This is the first time I've done any chapter with a song plugged into it. I tried to cut it off before I rambled on so much that this chapter got boring. Once again, I apologize for the long wait for this chappie.

Well, that's it. Ja 'ne!
