"Talking"
Thinking~* Chapter 24 *~
"What do you mean mom? What are we denying?" Gohan asked trying to cover up.
"Um, yes, Mrs. Son, we were doing homework." Videl cut in. ChiChi sighed and closed her eyes. Then after opening them turned back to the food.
"I used to be your age you know. I'm not stupid. Especially when I walked in your room last night and saw you two together. Why else would I have Goten in my room for the night?" ChiChi said adding salt to her food and then said; "I remember my love life with your father. We loved each other SO much." Gohan and Videl looked at each other and turned back.
"I mean, yes we waited until our honeymoon like how you're SUPPOSED to, but I guess your generation doesn't believe in that. Your little minds are being corrupted everyday. You shouldn't have to do it now. Get to know each other, and get MARRIED, but since I know you're both going to get married, I'll let it slide, or at least give you a minor punishment." ChiChi lectured. Gohan put his head down.
"Sorry, mom." Gohan replied keeping his head down. Videl looked at him sympathetically.
"Sorry, Gohan." She whispered. Gohan smiled a bit, but kept his head down. Videl sighed and looked at ChiChi.
"Sorry, Mrs. Son." Videl said. ChiChi turned around and sighed.
"I know you two are. But please, wait next time. Ok? I really DO want grandchildren, but it would be better if you waited till after you get married. I don't want any fights with your father, and I'm sure he doesn't want any fights with us." Gohan and Videl both nodded. ChiChi put her hands together.
"Wonderful. I hope that worked. If you guys have children, tell them that before they get a girlfriend/boyfriend. Ok?" ChiChi pleaded.
"Yes ma'am." They said together. ChiChi nodded and turned back to the food, and laughed as she turned around.
"But, Gohan. Don't think I won't give you a punishment. I think some extra chores around the house will work." Gohan sighed.
"What kind of work?" Gohan asked. Chichi made a "Hmm" sound and then smiled.
"How about you…start cleaning the dishes and start cleaning the bathrooms everyday until…next week." ChiChi said while turning around.
"But I already have to cut the grass and clean the living room, and study." Gohan said. ChiChi sighed.
"Yeah, ChiChi. He does have to train too." Goku butted in while walking down the stairs.
"Fine, I won't give you a punishment. Only because of your school work." ChiChi replied resting her hand on the counter.
"Thanks mom." Gohan replied getting up. Videl looked at him.
"Don't you want food?" Videl replied. Gohan sat back down.
"YES!" Videl sweat dropped and ChiChi laughed. So she continued to cook the food for another ten minutes and it was finished. She served Gohan a lot, about twenty helpings. She has been cooking since eight that morning, and it was now ten o'clock. Videl ate just about a plate of food before becoming full.
"Thank you mom! The food was great." Gohan said rubbing his stomach.
"Yes, great food as always." Goku replied.
"Yes, Mrs. Son, the bacon was delicious."
"Oh, call me ChiChi." Videl nodded.
"Ok." ChiChi smiled and took their plates and washed them off.
"So, what are you guys going to do today?" ChiChi asked while washing the last dish. Both of them shrugged and said, "I don't know."
"Gohan, you should take Videl out for a while. Maybe shopping or see a movie." ChiChi suggested. Gohan looked at Videl and back to his mother.
"I guess. I'll do whatever Videl wants to do." Videl smiled.
"I don't know what to do though, Gohan." Gohan shrugged.
"Well, I guess we can go somewhere. How about we just kind of look around and find something to do." Gohan asked. Videl nodded.
"Sure." ChiChi smiled.
"Ok then you two. I'll see you later." ChiChi said waving at them.
"Bye mom." Gohan shouted before closing the door. Goku looked at his wife a winked. ChiChi smiled and shook her head about the kids.
*Sigh* I guess I'll get those grandchildren soon after all.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Gohan lets go into that martial arts store. I'm sure we can fine some stuff in there." Videl said walking into the store. Gohan just followed. Videl was amazed to see all the stuff. There were weights, GI's, and all kinds of stuff, in many colors. Gohan watched Videl pick out a red GI and shoes with weights on it.
"Gohan! Look, these shoes look like your shoes!" Videl said picking them up and looking at them. Gohan nodded.
"Yeah. But mine are heavier." Videl sighed.
"I know that." So she went to the counter and got her stuff and both walked out of the store.
"Not many stores to go into are there, Gohan?" Videl asked looking around. Gohan shrugged.
"Except the preppy pink clothes." Gohan stated. Videl made a disgust look on her face.
"Eww." She commented. Gohan laughed and kept looking around. Then he saw a store.
"Why don't you go in there? I don't see pink clothes." Gohan said pointing to the store. Videl looked over to the store where he was pointing.
"Gohan, that store is for like, Gothics. Nothing but black." Gohan shrugged
"I know, but you look good in black." Gohan said winking. Videl laughed.
"I guess we can look in there." So they both went into the store. People greeted them as they walked in. Videl saw some clothes that weren't black but red. It said, "Sorry guys, all I suck are lollipops" on it. Videl liked this shirt and got it. Gohan laughed at her shirt.
"What's so funny?" She asked. Gohan stopped his laughing and looked at her.
"All you suck are lollipops huh?" He asked laughing. She hit him in the arm.
"Shut the hell up, Gohan." Videl laughed. Gohan kept laughing until Videl stopped.
"What's wrong?" Gohan asked.
"I don't know, I have a weird feeling…" Videl replied.
"I get those all the time." Gohan replied.
"But, I don't…I usually get that when something is going to happen." Videl replied. Gohan stared at her.
"A bad thing? Or a good thing?" Gohan asked.
"Well, usually it's a bad thing, but sometimes it could be a good thing." Videl stated.
"So this could be good?" Gohan asked. Videl laughed.
"I have no idea, but I'm going to ignore it now." Videl said with a smile on her face. Gohan smiled back and started walking with Videl beside him.
"So what do you want to do next, Videl?" Gohan asked. Videl shrugged.
"How about some lunch. I am pretty hungry, and it's lunch." Gohan's eyes opened.
"YES!" Videl laughed.
"Ok, then lets go." Videl said as she walked to the food court. She got herself a sandwich, and Gohan got some rice with chicken teriyaki.
"This is like the last time we went out for a day. We did the same thing." Videl replied. Gohan looked up.
"Huh?" He asked.
"Remember last time we came here? We did the same thing!" Gohan thought about last time.
"Hey, you're right. De ja vu!" Gohan replied taking a bite of his food.
"Talk about it…" She replied. "We should do something different." Videl said looking at Gohan and taking the last bite of her sandwich." Gohan swallowed a mouthful of food.
"Like what?" He asked. Videl shrugged.
"I don't know…how about we…go to the ice skating rink?" Videl asked. Gohan smiled.
"Sure, but I don't know how to ice skate."
"Oh, Gohan. You'll be fine. It isn't that hard. I learned in like, an hour." Videl said. Gohan nodded.
"Ok."
"Great! Let's go now!" Videl jumped out of her seat and took Gohan's hand and went the rink.
When they arrived there, they paid to go in and for a ticket to get skates. Gohan had a hard time tying the skates, it took him about ten minutes how to figure it out.
"Why do they make these so complicated?" Gohan asked standing up.
"I don't know. Come on!" Videl excitedly said and walked to the rink. Gohan started walking, thinking that the skates felt pretty weird on him. Videl waited until some people passed when she got on the ice. She started skating in a circle. She didn't see Gohan on the rink yet, and wondered where he was. So when she went back into the entrance, she saw him watching.
"Gohan, you're supposed to skate." Videl replied. He looked at her with his head resting on his hand.
"I know, but I don't know how." Gohan replied.
"Gohan, it's not that hard." Videl replied pulling him up. "Now come on!" She pulled him onto the ice. Gohan started slipping and loosing his balance and hung on the side. Videl laughed, and Gohan shot her a glare.
"Oh, Gohan. Trust me, you're not the only one hanging on to a wall. Now, try to find your balance." Gohan sighed and let go of the wall. He almost slipped but then found his balance.
"Great! Now, do this." Videl said showing him how to move his legs. Gohan tried but fell.
"Oww!" Gohan yelled. Videl giggled and skated to him and helped him up.
"You're doing pretty good. Now lets try that again." She replied. This kept up for two hours, and Gohan finally knew how. He would get wobbly once and a while, but not a great deal of times. While they were having a good time, people started screaming and covering on the ice. Gohan and Videl saw five men with guns. Two of them were yelling at the cashier, and the other three were watching the people, just in case they tried to stop them.
"LISTEN! WE WANT ALL THE MONEY, OR WE'LL KILL ALL THESE PEOPLE!" The taller man said holding a gun at the cashier.
"Y-yes sir." The cashier said while opening the drawer. Videl looked at Gohan.
"The people are distracted, and I'll distract the guys. You turn into Saiyaman, and I'll get these freaks." Videl whispered. Gohan nodded while Videl flew at the men.
"HEY!" Yelled a man while holding his gun at Videl. Videl kicked the gun out of the man's hand and kicked him in the head.
"YOU BITCH!" Yelled one of the men, and he kicked her into the wall. Videl growled and hit him in the gut. The man flinched but wasn't that hurt. Videl jumped back.
What the hell? He should be hurt. Where is Gohan? Videl thought, as she looked back, Gohan was transforming, but while she was watching, the man punched her in the side. She yelled and tripped him. Her side hurt like hell, but she was fine.
"Miss Videl. Are you ok?" Gohan said in his fake voice of Saiyaman. Videl smiled and nodded.
"I'm fine. But lets get these idiots." She replied. The men held their guns except for the guy who was out cold. Videl kicked the tall man in the head, knocking him over, but the stronger man who was bigger built, grabbed her foot and slammed her into the floor. Videl yelled and tried to get out of his grasp. She couldn't, but then Gohan came and knocked the guy out cold.
"Thanks." She replied getting up.
"You're welcome." Said Gohan. Only three men were standing now, and they weren't exactly confident. Gohan flew at the short man with the blue handkerchief and kicked the gun out of his hand.
"Please sir! DON'T KILL US!" Yelled the short man.
"Damn it Bruce! Shut the hell up!" The skinny tall man yelled.
"I can help it Greg! They're too strong!" He yelled.
"Then stop harassing these people, and leave." Gohan said to the man.
"NEVER!" Yelled Greg as he flew at Gohan. Videl was having a hard time herself. The man they called Maddog is the man Videl is fighting now, and he was the strongest.
"Little girl scared of the big scary man?" Asked Maddog. Videl glared at him.
"YOU WISH YOU SON OF A BITCH!" Videl yelled as she tried to punch him in the face, but he grabbed her hand and kicked her in the head. Videl yelled but Gohan caught her. He knocked the other two men out cold.
"I'll get them, Videl." Gohan said as he hit his head off of Maddog's and knocked him out. Gohan picked up the men and looked at Videl.
"Let's give these freaks to the police." He said walking towards the door. Videl nodded and walked beside them. The police thanked them for their help, and both of them told them no problem, so both of them flew away. Videl didn't think she could fly, but she didn't want to seem to hurt to the people. That would bring to much attention, so she tried to fly the best she could.
"Gohan…I can't fly any…" Gohan looked at her and saw her fall. Gohan caught her and looked at her sympathetically.
"I'm going to take you to Korin's so you can get a senzu bean." Gohan replied going the other direction. When he arrived there, he saw Yajirobi watering plants.
"Yajirobi! I need a senzu bean!" Gohan yelled. He looked at Gohan and saw the girl hurt in his arms.
"Here." He said as he tossed Gohan one. Gohan caught it and said, "Thank you."
"What happened anyway?" Yajirobi asked. Gohan told him the story.
"I see." Gohan nodded and gave Videl the bean. With in seconds, Videl woke up feeling fine.
"Are you ok, Videl?" Gohan asked her as she sat up.
"Yes, in fact, I feel incredible. Senzu bean, huh?" Videl asked. Gohan nodded and Videl stood up.
"Thanks, Gohan. I guess I blacked out there for a sec." Videl replied. Gohan nodded.
"Yeah, you were telling me you couldn't fly any longer, but the then you fell." Gohan replied. Videl gave him a smile.
"Thanks again, Gohan." Videl said. Gohan nodded and turned to Yajirobi.
"Also him, he gave me the senzu bean." Gohan said pointing at him. Videl bowed at Yajirobi.
"Thanks!" She replied.
"Any thing for a babe." Videl and Gohan sweat dropped.
"Well, we have to get going, it's late." Gohan replied. "Thanks again, Yajirobi!" Gohan yelled as he and Videl flew off.
About fifteen minutes later, they landed in the yard where they saw Goten and Trunks playing in the woods. Goten looked over and saw Gohan and Videl land in the yard. He smiled and looked at Trunks.
"Look, Trunks. Gohan and Videl are back." Goten yelled as he went to greet them. Trunks just followed behind him.
"HI GOHAN AND VIDEL!" Goten yelled as he ran over to them.
"Hey, Squirt. What's up?" Gohan asked. Goten looked up at him.
"Nothing. Trunks and I were sparring. I almost beat him Gohan! I almost beat him GOOD!" Goten yelled.
"No you didn't, Goten. It would have taken a miracle to beat me." Trunks said, being full of himself.
"Trunks. Shut up, I was so close!" Goten yelled. Gohan laughed.
"So where did you go today Gohan?" Goten asked.
"Just out with Videl." Gohan replied. Videl smiled.
"Are you guys going to get married?" Goten asked with sparkles in his eyes. Gohan laughed nervously.
"Um, maybe, Goten." Gohan replied. Goten jumped up and down.
"I REALLY HOPE YOU DO BECAUSE I LIKE VIDEL!" Goten yelled. Trunks gave him a look.
"What are you looking at, Trunks?" Goten asked.
"Goten, you're acting like an idiot." Trunks commented.
"What do you mean, Trunks? I'm not acting like an idiot!" He yelled. Trunks rolled his eyes.
"Yes you are!" Trunks shot back.
"NO!" Goten snapped.
"YOU WANNA PIECE OF ME?"
"NO, TRUNKS! I DON'T!" Gohan and Videl sweat dropped as the two kids were at it. They started sneaking inside before they noticed them leaving. So they ran in the house and looked out the window, seeing that they were still at it.
"Wow, energetic kids aren't they?" Videl asked slouching in the couch. Gohan sighed.
"You can say that again. Whenever I have kids, I really hope they aren't as hyper as those two out there are." Gohan said closing his eyes. Videl smiled at him thinking about his comment.
I wonder what his kids would look like. It would have his hair, or maybe my hair. Why am I thinking about kids? We're just going out. We…we probably won't even stay together long. Some relationships seem great, but end up horrible…nah! I don't think that will happen to us! Videl thought laughing at herself. Gohan looked at her funny.
"What are you laughing at?" Gohan asked confused. Videl realized she was laughing and shut up.
"Nothing. I was just thinking. It's nothing." She replied closing her eyes. Gohan shrugged and noticed that she fell asleep. Gohan yawned and had her head rest on his shoulder.
"Goodnight…" He replied as he, too, fell asleep.
