A perfect, dark blue, starry, full moon sky painted the horizon. Staring up at the beautiful specks of light could take away anyone's problem, no matter how bad. Well, except for one. Gohan was in a deep sleep snuggled up in the covers. It was cold, and seemed to fell colder, as if the window was open. Next to him Videl usually slept, but to night she was at the open window staring up, trying to be happy. It had been a month since her life completely changed. She was tired of being weak, so she never let anyone know that she still cried at night. It seemed to everyone that since Chipp had slaughtered Reinoko, Videl and Gohan could finally be happy. No one seemed to understand that Videl had very strong feelings for Reinoko. No one seemed to understand how she could love someone other than Gohan. 'After all that he's done for you?' They would say when she brought up Reinoko.

Every time someone said that to her, she couldn't help but think; 'Well, Gohan may have killed someone for me, but Reinoko died because of me. Don't I owe him something for that?'

Still staring Videl shook her head, she turned to go back to sleep, but her eyes were draw back up to the sky.

"I miss you so much Reinoko, I wish I could say good bye."

Laying in her bed once again, she fell into a dreamless sleep. However, Gohans' sleep was no longer peaceful. He twisted and turned every which way. As he slept, he kept hearing someone speak to him. Everything was white. A bright blinding white. A young man appeared not to far in the distance. Gohan couldn't make out the face, but the hair was enough for him to tell.

"Reinoko, what are you doing here?" Gohan called to the young man.

At first the man was silent, still. With one swift movement, he was just inches from Gohan. An evil grin covered his face.

"Tsk, tsk Gohan, thinking I would just go away like that. Have you not noticed her tears? She still weeps for me, she calls to me every night."

"Liar. She happy, she's moved on, away from you."

"Hmm, naive aren't we? Perhaps you should watch her more. Look into her eyes for a change, you'll she just how happy she is..."

Reinoko's voice trailed off into silence. Everything was white again.

~ That morning Gohan stared at Videl as she woke up. Her eyes were tired, and she managed a smile followed by a quiet yawn. "What's up Gohan?" She questioned suspiciously.

"Videl, are you.I mean, do you still think about.about Reinoko?"

Videl shifted nervously. She sat up thinking hard. After a bit of hesitation she answered.

"Yes. I do, all the time."

This made Gohan shuffle as well. Sitting up next to her he looked at her hard.

"Why didn't you tell me?" Gohan wondered.

"I didn't think it was that important.I mean, he's gone now. So there's no reason for me to talk of him."

Videl tore her eyes from Gohan's gaze. Standing up she hurried out of the room. Gohan still stared at where she had been. His eyes dropped to the sheets on the bed.

"What is going on here?" He asked himself.

Videl had fled into the bathroom. Splashing water on her face she looked into the mirror. At first all she saw was the reflection of her face. Then the reflection shifted. It twisted until it formed Reinoko's face staring at her. Videl jumped backwards and looked down at the sink. Breathing heavily, she glanced back up into the mirror. Nothing. Once again she saw only her reflection. Sighing in relief she turned around to leave. She almost screamed when she saw Reinoko standing there staring at her. He held a gentle smile on his face. He looked alive, like she could reach out and touch him. A small smile began to form on her lips, and she didn't resist. He looked so gentle, so loving. She felt that she could touch him, and he would be there again, and everything would be ok. Stepping back, he held out his hand to her. The temptation was unbearable, and Videl didn't want to fight back. Willingly she took his hand. The was white, just white, searing into her eyes. Then slowly she saw the river. The river she went to so often. She could hear the water running so clearly. She remembered Reinoko, then her mind switched to Gohan. Suddenly she felt a tug at her throat. She tried to draw in breath, but all she felt was cold water running through her. Something grabbed her arms and tore her from the sound of the water. Unknowingly she gasped for air, as her eyes focused on trees. Her hair was wet a matted down against her face. She turned to see Gohan holding her. His eyes were wide and scared.

"What are you doing?" He seemed to be screaming at her.

She heard what he said but couldn't process it. She saw white again, just for half a second. Her mind seemed clear again. She felt more aware of what was going on.

"What happened?" She said weakly.

"What happened?! I came to the river, and saw you lying face down in it." Gohan said, voice shaking.

Videl thought for a second. What had happened? Why was she lying in the river?

'I don't understand how I got here."

Gohan looked at her in fear.

"What's the last thing you remember?" He asked softly.

Videl paused. She searched her brain for the information she needed. Nothing was making any sense to her.

"I was in the bathroom. Reinoko, he was there, somehow. He held out his hand, I took it and then everything was white. Then I was here."

Gohan looked puzzled. Again he said

"What is going on?"

Gohan guided Videl back to the house. Luckily the rest of the family was meeting a Capsule Corp today. They had the house to themselves. Videl sat down on the couch as Gohan brought her a towel. As he was getting it, Videl looked down at the ring at her finger. The ring Gohan had given her when he proposed. It had been a beautiful night, they were sitting and talking looking out at the river. She was lying her head against his chest when the water seemed to glitter. There was nothing there, but it was though the water was smiling at her. She smiled and looked towards Gohan as her sifted a little. Videl remembered exactly what he had said to her. It wasn't that hard to remember because he hadn't said anything at all. He had held a small box in his hand. He slipped into her curious fingers. She opened it, and immediately she knew what he was saying. He hadn't said it aloud, it was like he spoke to her in her mind.

Gohan sat next to Videl on the couch. She took the towel from his hand and dried her self off. For a moment Gohan stared at her, but he stood up and walked into the kitchen. He was confused and too scared of the truth to ask her if she knew anything about what had happened.

The rest of the day was normal. They both acted as if nothing out of the ordinary had gone on. The even went to sleep that night without questions, but without words as well.

Gohan woke up from a dreamless night. He felt uneasy. Alone. He knew that everyone was still in West City so he blamed It on that. He turned to watch Videl wake up, as he always did, but she wasn't there. Suspicious, Gohan went towards the bathroom. As her touched the handle a chill ran through his spine. The was an ache in the pit of his stomach. He opened the door to find a horrific site. Blood was splattered al over. The mirror, the walls.he couldn't see inside the bathtub because it was concealed by the curtain. Hesitantly he lifted back the curtain. When he gazed upon his findings, a scream built up in his throat.

Videl lay covered in blood, motionless. Gathering his nerve, Gohan knelt down and touched her face. It was still warm, but barely. His hand went to her neck. He waited for movement but the was nothing. No pulse. Nothing. His arm shook and he choked back tears. Her left hand was holding something, completely incase in red. Her fingers curled around a kitchen knife. Dimmitt.

His eyes darted to find many wounds in her chest and stomach.. he counted each wound fingers shaking more with each count. She had stabbed herself eight times. One for each year she waited for him.Hands stained in red, Gohan turned away. He looked at the mirror. He hadn't notice it before, but there was writing on the mirror.

'If I can't have her, then neither can you.'

It was a classic sentence used in so many movies. But this was the first time he had seen it in really life. Gohan's hand tightened. His arm shook with tension. At the top of his lungs he screamed.

"DAMN YOU REINOKO! DAMN YOU!". Gohan turned to Videl, he lifted her lifeless head in his arms. He took her out of the tub, letting blood pour onto him. He sat there cradling her in his arms. His pressed his head against hers. The stench of blood stuck in his nose. He sat there, cradling her for hours. He never wanted to move. He wouldn't leave her body. He would stay by her until he could no longer. Crying, Gohan looked up at the ceiling.

"Why? Why Videl? Why?" He asked over and over. A faint whisper filled his ears.

"I love you.good bye.' The voice traveled into nothing. Silence took over again.

Whispering as well Gohan smiled softly tears still falling.

"I love you too.Good bye Videl."
