Written by the somewhat infamous Goku's Daughter
Chapter Two: Ostentation
Videl awoke the next morning to the rays of the bright sun. Groggily, she sat up with a frown on her face when she felt that pounding headache. Rubbing her head a bit, she observed the setting around her and almost screamed.
"So that wasn't a dream?" she said in a loud voice that held a string of panic.
"No—afraid not," said a familiar voice behind her.
She turned around and looked at Gohan, who was back in his normal state and fully clothed since he changed.
"My ass you 'afraid not'. I'm sure you loved it." It was quite strange how her mood changed so quickly.
"I didn't say that I didn't like it."
She smirked at him. "It's good you're not playing oblivious to what happened last night." Videl shiver against the cool breeze and it was then she noticed that she didn't have much on. No shirt. No pants. No bra. It was just her torn underwear that barely kept her private area covered.
"Wow," she whispered.
He cocked an eyebrow up. "What?"
"I don't feel embarrassed that you're looking at me when I'm so—" she halted.
"Undressed?" he finished.
Yeah, it was a surprise that she liked being immodest—yes—a great surprise. But feeling a great throb in her neck, she groaned and glared at Gohan. "You had to bite hard, didn't you?"
He couldn't help but grin. "I told you that I didn't have much self-control…"
"So you bite me?"
"Instincts—Saiyan instincts!" he said almost too loud, desperately and lamely trying to blame it on his heritage.
Videl rolled her eyes. "And I'm surprised that you didn't fu—"
He cut her off before she said it. "Of course that doesn't mean that I don't have any control in me what-so-ever. But I warn you that if you try that stunt again I might just do that to you."
"You know that's rape."
He shrugged with a grin. "But you're the one who started it."
She stuck out her tongue and teased him.
He rolled his eyes, and then noticed that the sun was almost up. Almost panicking, he threw a pair of extra clothes to Videl. "I need you to get dressed. I don't want Goten to come out here to pee and find a naked girl with his brother."
Videl grinned at his thought, but followed his demand, because really, she didn't need Chichi on her case. It was way too early in the morning for that.
Slowly she reached for pants and slipped them on. Then she reached for the bra…and noticed there was no bra. She glared him with those bright blue eyes.
"What?! You never leave yours here and there's no way that I'm going to sneak in my mom's room to steal one of hers!" he explained quickly in a hushed, harsher voice.
Videl shrugged as she slipped on a white t-shirt and muttered, "I hope you don't want an encore…"
His eyebrows rose up and his behaviour became very…unsettling. It was as if he was nervous about something. "Ahahaha…we'll see…" and rubbed the back of head in a very Son manner.
Videl was quite surprised that he heard that but mentally she shrugged it off. Then she just glared at him and reached for a kiss. When she got it she felt an intense pain in her neck. "Why does mine hurt and yours doesn't?"
He shrugged and laughed nervously, again. "Maybe because I have sharper canines…"
She just rolled her eyes and stretched back. It was then Videl felt something odd. "Hey Gohan, what day is it today?" Hey, it was her intuition.
"Monday, why?"
"Gohan, we have school." She didn't look affected or fazed. It was more like she didn't care—but she felt the need to make Gohan paranoid.
He panicked. "WHAT!?" he shrieked.
And it worked.
Surprisingly, she looked uninterested. "SHUT UP! IT'S TOO EARLY IN THE MORNING TO HEAR YOU SCREAMING!"
He looked at her and blinked. He wondered why she was so damn irritated—and acting like a—. Okay, maybe Gohan couldn't make up his mind to describe Videl at the moment…but school was his first priority right now.
Videl on the other hand, didn't feel too well…in fact she felt quite sick. And maybe a little too exhausted for her liking. Groaning as she walked, the raven-haired girl said, "Gohan, I think I should go home, change, and rest. I'll see you at school later."
Gohan looked at her with a frown, wondering why she was sick. With concern but heed to her hormones and state, he let her go. "Okay, I'll see you later." He was going to offer her a 'fly home' but he had a feeling that she wanted to be alone.
Videl was actually appreciative to her boyfriend's response. After giving him a small kiss, she took off into the air…
Maybe the effects were coming too quickly for them to be unable to realize what's starting to happen…
Or maybe nothing is going to happen at all.

Now children let me tell you a story. Sit down quietly. Don't go just yet. Once there was a girl. This girl, no older than fifteen, didn't have a chance to go on the bloody internet for about four days. What's worse, this girl wasn't able to write anything in more than a week. With no creative energy released, she's afraid she's about to go insane, especially when she's so exhausted lately with her education. Now this girl, who also has black hair and dark, ebony eyes, feels the need to express herself, and update this chapter despite the shortness. She is sorry of the short length, she really is, and if she had time, she would have combined it with another chapter. But sadly, she didn't. And again, she's sorry. And she's becoming insane. Slowly…yet surely… she is. She even 'threatened' her friend, who goes by the name SCADALOUS on FF.N that if she never read this story, then she's not going to update. Sadly it didn't work. Friend was also to busy with her education. This girl also saw the corny G/V episode (finally) and must say that it was really….something…and stupid. And yes, she lives in Canada…near Toronto…near a place that the WHO put a restriction thingy on 'cause of SARS. And yes, this girl hates how language is set on "American English". She curses that. She also comments how favor looks so naked without the 'u'. This girl is beginning to believe how boring this message is, but is very important! She also comments that how appreciative she is for everyone's nice reviews!! It almost brought tears to her eyes. She also says if you would like to be on the mailing list, just say so, or contact her e-mail—blood_of_goku@hotmail.com, and state why your e-mailing. This girl also wants to say (in case no one has realized it) that this is Goku's Daughter.
Now this girl has… homework to do. Then take a shower then watch a DBZ ep called "Celebrating with Buu" or something like that. Please pray for the girl's sanity, for the soldiers in the war, for the cure for SARS and every bad disease.
The girl also wishes to comment that reviews are also (and she means also) appreciated and loved, and also nestled near her bosoms.
Now children you may leave (after using the review tool) and the girl hopes that you have a nice week!!
