Hey all! This is Umi! Thanks so much to all who have reviewed and e-mailed their ideas to me! ^.^ This is the second to the last chapter then I'll be finished! Hehehe! Well here we go!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Videl and Gohan were in the kitchen making breakfast, neither one had uttered so much as a good morning and it was driving them both nuts! Gohan was the first to break the silence with a loud sigh, "Videl, how about we forget what happened yesterday?"
Videl seem to think a little, "Sure, and forget school. It's too much of a hassle."
Gohan laughed lightly, "I'd have to agree with you there, besides it'll be safer for Sharpener."
"Since when did you care about Sharpener's well being?" Videl asked slyly.
"Well, I have to, being Sayinman and all oopse." Gohan realized his confession a moment too late. He shut his eyes and prepared himself for the screaming and yelling he was sure would come, however the sound of laughing filled the air instead.
"You actually thought I hadn't figured out that you're Sayinman! Geezs Gohan I'm not an idiot!" Then Videl laughed a little harder.
Gohan, however was blushing like mad, "No…I never thought that…umm th-th-that you were an… ugh an-an-an idi-idiot." Videl laughed harder at his stuttering. Gohan took a deep breath to make him stop then asked what she wanted to do.
Videl thought for a moment and looked around his home, noting that there was nothing very intrasting that to do there, "Umm…how about we just go out? It's not like there's much to do here."
Gohan shrugged his shoulders in agreement. So when they finished breakfast they ventured out into the world.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* (Shopping District) *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Ugh, I am never eating there again!" Videl said in disgust.
"I don't know, I kind of liked it."
Videl gave him the What-are-you-on look then retorted, "Like you would know, you inhale your food and don't have time to taste it!" Videl crossed her arms over her chest and Gohan scratched the back of his head and laughed. She was right after all he really didn't taste it.
They walked around window shopping neither finding anything of interest, well Gohan found a book store but Videl refused to go there. Gohan noticed that Videl seemed to be looking for something impractical so asked. Videl didn't say anything right away but she pointed at what she was looking for. Gohan looked at where Videl's finger was pointing to and paled, "You want to go to a lingerie store!"
Videl's eyes widen then forcibly glared at him, "Not that store you dope, the bathroom next to it!"
"Oh. Wait a minute; you can't use the restroom here! I can't go into the girl's room!" Gohan stated franticly.
"Gohan I'm not going all the way back to your place just to use the restroom!" With that said she dragged Gohan over to the door. Videl poked her head into the door then opened the door all the way and let out a sigh of relief thankful that there was no one in there. "Come on Gohan." She hissed and yanked on the chain.
Gohan followed his discomfort showing. They hurried into the closest stall and locked the door. The stalls were all very narrow and had Japanese style toilets. "Turn around Gohan!" Gohan obediently turned around to give Videl the most amount of privacy he could give her at the moment. However didn't stop either one of them from blushing or escape the awkward feeling.
"Okay I'm done." Gohan turned around relieved. He hated these bathroom breaks.
Gohan went to open the door however the stalls were two narrow so the door couldn't get past him. "Move Gohan! You're to big!" Videl and Gohan tried to switch places, she being smaller the door could get by easier, however Gohan tripped bring Videl along with him.
"Sorry Videl." Gohan attempted to get up but couldn't seem to move his foot.
"Gohan, I can't get up until you do."
"But Videl, my foot is stuck!"
"What could you get your foot stuck in?! The only thing in here is…no don't tell me you got your foot stuck there. Please don't tell me that." Videl groans when Gohan smiled sheepishly in response. Videl twisted her body and slid out from under him, "Gohan! You got your foot shoved in the toilet!" She grabbed his foot with both hands and yanked. "Well, it's in there tight, I need something to grease it down so I can get it out."
Videl shoved her head in the space between the stall door and the floor and searched for anything that would help get his foot out. "Aha!" She smiled when she spotted a bottle of lotion on the sink. 'but how do I get. Maybe that roll of toilet paper will work!' Videl grabbed the roll of toilet paper and poked her head back out. 'Okay Videl just get the roll behind the lotion and pull it off the sink like a lasso.' Videl threw the toilet paper and it landed right where she wanted, grinning she began to reel it in, or at least she tried. She was just getting more of the paper and the roll wasn't doing anything. Angry she yanked really hard causing the toilet paper to come of the roll and float mockingly to the floor. She was about to throw a hessy fit when the outside door opened. Videl quickly pulled her head back in.
"Videl what's." "Be quiet!"
Videl saw green-heeled shoes walking past her stall door, "umm excuse me miss, will you pass me that bottle of lotion on the counter please."
'Why in the world is she asking for lotion?' Videl was about to turn and glare at Gohan but then realized the comment was inside her head. Videl groaned as remembrance what Gohan had told her came back. "Stupied Gohan." Videl breathed.
Then she noticed the bottle of lotion in front of her head and shouted thank you before twisting her body around Gohan to get to his foot. Videl twisted so that her chest was right in front of Gohan's face and poor Gohan was bombarded with NC-17 thoughts. He tried to turn his head but found that he couldn't do that without pulling Videl with him. His face turned bright red and he began to curse under his breath.
Videl didn't notice the position she was in and began smoothing lotion on his shoe, when she deemed it was enough she began to yank on his foot, but it was still stuck. "All right Gohan on the count of three pull your foot up. 1…2…3!" Videl and Gohan tumbled backward and through the stall door. Pausing only for a second to confirm that Gohan's foot was indeed out of the toilet, before they booked it out of there. Leaving a gaping Erasa in the dust.
"Videl…Gohan…in the bathroom…together. OMG they're a couple! I'll have to call everyone at school! Oh, and the reporters…"
Gohan and Videl panted Videl from lack of oxygen and Gohan well from embarrassment. Videl plopped herself onto the bench and buried her head in one of her arms. Looking around Gohan spotted an ice cream stand, "Hey Videl, how about we get some well deserved ice cream? My treat."
Videl picked up her head and looked over at the stand, shrugging her shoulders she allowed Gohan to lead the way. Walking to a table they sat down not speaking a word. While Videl was engrossed on eating her ice cream Gohan had spotted a young man who kept looking at Videl. He was wearing a fox logo black and yellow beanie, with matching shirt; his pants were baggy and hanging off his hips. His messy brown and bleached hair peeked out from under his beanie and skimmed over his green eyes. He sat himself down a little too close to Videl for Gohan's liking. A low growl resounded from his throat. The boy gave Gohan a strange look but other than that paid him no mind. "Hey, got tickets to a punk show tonight, all I need is a good looking babe to go with." Videl continued to ignore him and Gohan's eyes narrowed into slits. "Come on, a girl like you wants to have fun, so how about it?"
Videl was struggling to keep herself calm why she didn't know normally she either just walked away or gave in to the temptation on pound the guy. That's when she released that she was experiencing Gohan's feelings right now, "Gohan, are you…"
If you don't get your hand off her I will blast it off, do I make myself clear." His tone was so low and calm it almost made Videl wet herself, not to mention the boy who turned a sickly shade of white.
"Ummm y-y-yes s-s-sirrrr." He quickly removed his hand.
"Get up." The boy shot up stiffing his spin. "Good, now listen closely because I will not repeat nor will I hesitate to kill you if you disobey me, never touch her again. Now leave before I change my mind and decide to kill you." The boy ran like all hell was loose.
Videl gaped at Gohan, "Why did you –I mean how did you,"
"There they are!" Gohan and Videl's head snapped in the direction of the voice only to see a herd of reporters and their camera crew running toward them. Without a word spoken they ran even faster than the boy did.
Store blurring into each other, jumping over tables and benches, turning over trashcans and the occasional person Videl and Gohan ran before coming to a halt as another pack of reporters made their presence known with shouts of, "Ms. Satan, who is this young man?" "Ms. Satan a word!" "Ms. Satan how long?" "Ms. Satan is it true you're pregnant?" "Is he the baby's father?" "Ms. Satan!" "Ms. Satan!" The ambush was closing in around the handcuffed pair, the shouts of war ringing in their ears. Acting quickly when the reporters were just out of arms reach Gohan scooped Videl up in his arms and took off to the alley behind them and jumped on the roof where jumped a few more before taking off into the sky.
Landing on the roof of his house Gohan allowed Videl to slide through his arms. "So is that how you allude me?" Gohan gave her his Son smile instead of a voiced answer. Videl hit him on the shoulder, not expecting it to hurt, and made her way inside. Gohan sighed, it was almost evening and tomorrow they would be free. But he began to doubt that's what he really wanted.
