Videl awoke the next morning wrapped in a warm embrace. For a few moments, she had trouble remembering where she was until memories of the previous day came flooding back to her. A smile crossed her lips as she thought of all the things that had happened. She'd been resurrected from the dead, Buu was finally destroyed, she and Gohan had bonded to become mates for the rest of their lives and she was officially 'hired' as part of the Son family. With a small laugh, she thought that it probably was the most productive day she'd ever had.
A quick glance at the person next to her revealed that Gohan was still sleeping. ChiChi had made Goten sleep in his own room instead of on the cot that he usually used to sleep in Gohan's room so that she and Gohan could have some privacy. Although Videl appreciated the gesture, both she and Gohan were so exhausted from the previous day's events that after everyone had finished talking after dinner they had come straight up stairs, fallen into bed and promptly fell asleep in each other's arms. From the looks of things, neither had moved much during the night and Videl was still wrapped up tightly in Gohan's arms.
Videl had been in Gohan's room a couple of times when he was teaching her how to fly, but now it was as if she was seeing it for the first time. There was a window that stretched for one side of the room to the other. Directly across from the door, in one corner, Gohan had set up his desk so that he could look out the window while he was studying. On the opposite side of the room was the bed that both she and Gohan were occupying. A bookshelf stretched along the wall between the desk and the bed. Videl mentally laughed as she saw the shelves filled with school textbooks and famous literary works. ChiChi's doing no doubt. Gohan's closet was along the wall between his door and his desk. A door on the opposite wall led to a bathroom which he shared with Goten. The room was much smaller than the one she had at her father's mansion, yet this one seemed much more like home. The walls were sparsely decorated, as was common with most teenage males.
However, the one object that stood out most in Videl's mind was a picture frame that stood prominently on his desk. It was a picture of the two of them that ChiChi had taken close to the end of her flying lessons. Gohan was looking slightly annoyed as Goten sat on top of his head playing king of the mountain as Videl looked on from the side with a huge amused grin on her face. The scene reminded Videl of a happy family and she found herself wishing that the Goten in the picture was actually her and Gohan's child.
'All in due time.' She thought to herself as she rolled over to face Gohan who was beginning to wake up. When his eyes finally opened, she spoke as her eyes danced with amusement.
"Good morning sleepy head."
Gohan looked into her eyes for a few moments before responding.
"I like waking up like this." He said as a smile formed on his lips.
"And just how is that?" Videl asked in a teasing voice as she snuggled up closer to him.
"With you in my arms. I don't ever want to let go." Gohan's eyes moved up and down Videl's body, admiring every curve. Even when she'd just waken up, he thought she was the most beautiful thing alive.
"That sounds like a good proposal. I think we could arrange that," she purred.
"As tempting as that sounds, if we don't get up in," he paused as he looked at the clock, "10 minutes, my little brother is going to come in here bouncing up and down on the bed, shouting at us to get up."
"Sounds like an annoying way to wake up in the mornings."
Videl laughed as Gohan answered her with sarcasm clearly evident in his voice.
"Oh yeah, it's a blast."
"So I guess we'd better get up then?" Videl stated more than questioned.
However, instead of raising out of bed, Gohan tightened his grip and whispered in her ear.
"We still have a few minutes."
Videl was in no mood to argue as she melted back into Gohan's body. She was definitely in no hurry to get up. The two lay there in each other's arms comfortably, as if they had been together for years instead of just hours. However, Gohan finally looked at the clock and noted with considerable regret that they had to get up or risk Goten flying into the room.
"Videl, I think we'd better get up or Goten is going to come in." his disappointment was obvious in his voice as he spoke.
Videl answered with a groan but she began to rise out of bed. She noted with some amusement that Gohan was carefully watching her every movement and therefore she exaggerated the sway of her hips and arched her back as she faked a yawn, effectively thrusting her chest up against the thin fabric of the shirt she was wearing.
"You like what you see?" she asked seductively, staring him directly in the eye.
She was once again amused that Gohan blushed slightly before answering.
"I'd be lying if I said I didn't."
"Good answer. Now would you care to join me for a shower?" she asked as she lifted her shirt over the top of her head and threw it in the laundry hamper.
Gohan could barely contain himself as he watched Videl in front of him. Slowly, he rose from bed with a grin on his face.
"I think we'd better make it a cold shower."
Videl laughed as he grabbed her hand and led her into the bathroom.
**********
When Gohan and Videl finally made their way downstairs after they'd showered and dressed they found that ChiChi had already started making a huge breakfast and that Goku and Goten were anxiously waiting to be served. As the pair walked hand in hand into the room ChiChi raised an eyebrow and gave the two a suspicious glance. However, both Gohan and Videl were relieved when she didn't say anything.
::How on earth do you think my mother already knows?:: Gohan asked Videl through their bond so their conversation would be silent.
::My guess would be mother's intuition. It can be a pretty powerful weapon. At least your father seems to be too interested in the food to notice anything.::
::That's true.:: But even as he replied, Gohan saw his father sniff the air and turn to face the young couple, apparently to simply acknowledge their appearance. His knowledge of what had happened was imperceptible to anyone but Gohan, who was able to read his emotions perfectly thanks to the silent bond that had long before formed between father and son. Gohan was greatly relieved once again when his father chose not to say anything about what he knew. Gohan knew that his father could at times be smarter than people gave him credit for.
After the obligatory 'good mornings' Gohan and Videl joined Goku and Goten at the table for breakfast. When the food was finally served, Videl watched in awe as the three Saiyans ate. Even though she had eaten with Gohan and Goten several times when she was learning how to fly, this was only her second time watching Goku eat in addition to the other two and the results were explosive to say the least. Food was flying everywhere.
Videl bleakly noted that she would have to learn how to cook, and rather soon at that judging how fast things were progressing with Gohan. Silently, she laughed as she realized just how much she'd changed in the previous few weeks. Gohan sensed her changing mood and sent her a questioning look.
::I'm just thinking about something. Nothing to worry about I promise.::
Gohan gave a slight shrug of his shoulders and went back to stuffing his face with food. Soon, the three Saiyans had eaten everything ChiChi had cooked, signaling the end of breakfast. In an obviously practiced series of moments, Gohan and Goten used their Saiyan speed to clear the dishes, wash them and then put them away. The entire process took less than two minutes to complete.
'That will be really useful.' Videl thought as she envisioned her and Gohan's future together. ChiChi's voice brought her out of her daydream as she asked,
"So what are you two going to do today?"
Videl and Gohan shared a quick look before Videl answered.
"I thought perhaps Gohan and I would spend the morning together and then go talk to my father."
Gohan nodded his head in agreement.
"That sounds like a good plan to me."
"Can I go with you guys?" Goten asked eagerly, looking at them.
However, it was ChiChi who answered for them.
"I don't think so Goten." She said sternly, but immediately softened when she saw his disappointed expression. "Don't you want to play with your father?"
Any disappointment that had been evident in Goten's face immediately disappeared at the thought of a day spent playing with his father.
Before Goten could change his mind, Gohan and Videl quickly slipped out the front door. Once they were outside, Gohan immediately picked Videl up in his arms and began to fly away from the house.
::I hope you don't mind that I'm carrying you.::
::It's alright. I enjoy being close to you. Just don't make it a habit all the time.::
::Yes ma'am.:: Gohan said in a semi-mocking tone, but Videl knew that he had gotten the message. She enjoyed being held in his arms from time to time, but she was still an independent woman and didn't want to give that up.
::So where exactly are we going?:: Videl asked as she watched the ground fly by underneath them.
::It's a little place I discovered one day when I was being chased by a huge dinosaur. I don't think its quite as beautiful as our private island, but it should do for the time being.::
::How long til we get there?::
::We're here now.:: Gohan replied as he descended between a small opening in the trees and settled down on the bank of a small river. Videl could smell the sweet aroma of blossoms in bloom and could see and hear where a roaring waterfall crashed into the rocks, creating a small rainbow hovering over the water.
"You certainly do have good taste Gohan."
Gohan let out a little laugh as he lay back in the grass. Videl followed suit and used his chest as a pillow.
"Well, I try."
For a few minutes, they lay together in silence, simply enjoying each other's company and listening to the sound of rushing water and birds chirping. Finally Videl spoke up.
"So what did you want to talk about Gohan?"
"Actually, I was kinda hoping we could discuss our future."
"That's a really good idea. I'm sure my dad will have a ton of questions for us."
Gohan sighed.
"Now there's a confrontation I'm not looking forward to."
Videl lightly jabbed him in the abs in jest.
"Oh you big wimp. You just fought Buu and you're afraid to face my father?"
"And tell him that we're destined to spend the rest of our lives together and there's nothing he can do about it? I'd rather fight Buu and Cell at the same time thank you very much."
Videl couldn't help it. She laughed. Deep down she knew her father most likely wouldn't take that announcement all that well. However, they still had a few hours until they had to deal with that situation.
"Alright, back to our future. Did you mean what you said earlier?"
"About us getting a house near your college and you going to classes while I train?" Videl nodded in agreement. "Absolutely. Unless you have a plan that you think would work better."
"No, I think that is a great plan."
"Do you know where you are going to go to school? I think perhaps it would be a good idea to find a house as soon as possible."
"I agree. My dad wants me to go to Orange Star University, but I wanted to go to the Nakajima University in Central City."
"Central City it is then. I figure we can start looking for a house as soon as we get a chance."
Videl rolled over and looked Gohan in the eyes.
"That's fine. I do have a question though. What exactly are we going to do for money? We haven't even graduated from High School yet and we're talking about buying a house."
Gohan smiled back down at Videl's worried face. Her concern was unfounded.
"Well, believe it or not, but Bulma has had set up a trust fund in my name ever since I was four years old. I guess she felt she owed it to my father or something. But because of it, we won't have to worry about money for a while. Besides, I'm sure that when the next Martial Arts Tournament comes up I can work out something with your father."
Videl looked up at Gohan almost in disappointment. She still loved her father and was worried that Gohan simply wanted to ruin his reputation. Gohan sensed her concern and continue.
"Don't worry Videl. I have no desire to be world champion. I simply meant that I'm sure your father would agree to split the difference between the first and second place prize and in return he could remain world champ."
Videl smiled. Gohan never ceased to amaze her. He always seemed to have everything planned out in advance.
"I don't know why I was worried."
"Yeah, so anyways, I don't think we should have to worry about money. And when you graduate college we can sit down again and figure out what we want to do then. If you want to work or train or whatever, it doesn't matter. Just as long as we're together."
Videl moved up so she was lying on Gohan's chest and gave him a deep kiss.
"I couldn't agree more. When do you want to move in together?"
Gohan wasted no time before he immediately responded.
"Now would be too late."
A giggle escaped Videl's lips.
"You always seem to have the right answers. But seriously, when do you think it would be a good time?"
"I think as soon as we've found a house we like. We both can fly so it won't take long for us to get to Orange Star City. Besides, it will be nice to get away from the parent's watchful eyes."
"That's quite a good point. Do you think you're going to want to live inside the city or somewhere outside?"
Gohan looked thoughtful for a few moments before he answered.
"Well, in an ideal world, I would like to live outside the city. That way we wouldn't be bothered by the press and it would make it easier to train. But I of all people should know that an ideal world doesn't exist so I think we should just go for whatever we like."
Videl nodded her head in agreement. She had never really enjoyed all the publicity that came with being Hercule's daughter. Living outside the city would be a nice break. Just the very thought of her and Gohan living together made her extremely excited. She suddenly stood up, leaving Gohan to frown at her in confusion.
"All right you lazy bum, get up. We're going to look at houses."
Gohan raised one eyebrow in question.
"I thought you wanted to talk to your father."
"I do. I just thought perhaps we could take a slight detour and fly over Central City on our way. That way, we can perhaps spot some houses from the air." Slowly, Videl lifted off into the air. "Now are you coming or not?"
Gohan smiled as he jumped from the ground and floated along side her.
"But of course." He said as he took off into the air, leaving Videl scowling at his back as she took off to catch up.
*********
"Hey Gohan, look down there!"
Gohan and Videl had arrived over Central City and were surveying the area from high in the air, trying to get a feel for where they might want to live. Videl currently had a finger pointed down at a point far from the edge of town along a small river.
"That looks like a perfect place. You wanna go check it out?" Gohan asked, but Videl was already flying down to the area in question. He shrugged his shoulders, but quickly followed after her. When he landed, he could see her face filled with joy
"This is it Gohan. This is where I think we should live." She was so excited that Gohan had no trouble sensing her joy.
He took a quick look around to survey the area, but his mind had already been made up. The place reminded him a lot of where he lived currently. There was a large forest between the river and the city which would provide protection from prying eyes. Then on the other side of the river, the ground leveled out into a flat plain for miles. An excellent spot for training.
A huge smile crossed Gohan's face as he turned around to look at Videl.
"This is a fantastic choice Videl. Now all we need to do is get a house out here and we'll be set. And I think Bulma would be more than happy to help us out in that department."
Gohan's arms wrapped around Videl and he laid his chin on her shoulder as they both stood silently, admiring the place where they were going to live together in a short period of time.
However, Gohan's growling stomach shocked both of them out of their daze. Videl couldn't help but laugh.
"A little hungry are we there Gohan?"
Gohan grinned sheepishly.
"Yeah, I guess so. I didn't even notice it."
"Okay then, I'll call my dad and tell him to have the chefs cook lots of extra food."
Gohan's eyes widened at the thought of food, and Videl had to laugh again.
"Remind me not to get into a competition with your stomach." She said as she pulled out her cell phone and started dialing.
Gohan nuzzled her neck and breathed softly into her ear.
"You'd win no contest."
Videl had to fight down the moan that was rising in her throat as she heard her phone ringing.
"Hello this is the Satan residence." a voice answered on the other end and Videl easily recognized it as belonging to the family butler.
"Hi Alfred, could you put my dad on the phone?"
"Of course Miss Videl. One moment please."
The phone went silent for a few moments before the unmistakable voice of her father spoke up on the other end.
"Videl? Are you there?"
"Yes Daddy I'm here."
"Is everything okay? I was worried when you didn't come home last night."
"Everything's fine daddy." Videl had to concentrate on her conversation as Gohan continued to nuzzle her neck. "I've had some time to think and I want to talk to you."
"Alright, come on over and we'll eat lunch."
"You'd better make sure to tell the chefs to make about 15 times more than they usually do. I'm bringing Gohan with me."
Hercule, who had never seen a Saiyan eat was in shock on the other end of the phone. Finally he regained his voice.
"He eats that much??"
"Just trust me on this one daddy."
"O-okay." Came the hesitant reply.
"We'll be there in about 30 minutes or so."
"Alright, I'll see you then."
When Videl hung up her phone, Gohan continued to nuzzle up against Videl's neck but tapped into their bond to ask her a question.
::Why'd you say we were going to be there in half an hour? It'll only take a few minutes to get there flying at top speed.::
Videl turned around to face him with a seductive look on her face.
::It's not fair that you're the only one who gets to be a tease.::
Immediately Gohan's face lit up. All thoughts of hunger pangs disappeared from his mind as Videl walked towards him, swaying her hips.
********
Gohan and Videl landed quickly at the front door of the Satan mansion so they wouldn't be viewed by any curious onlookers. The door was swiftly answered by a man Gohan correctly assumed to be Alfred. He was dressed in a dark blue suit and had balding gray hair. Gohan noted with slight amusement that he was about as tall as a certain Saiyan prince.
After a quick introduction, Alfred led them through a maze of hallways that lead to the dining room. Gohan was amazed at all of the Hercule related memorabilia that decorated the house. Life sized portraits hung from the wall, framed pictures from his World Tournament matches and busts featuring his head were everywhere. Videl noted Gohan's look.
::My Dad has quite an ego, I know.::
Gohan chose to stay silent. He'd learned long ago that it wasn't wise to criticize someone's family, no matter how correct it might be.
Finally, they had arrived at their destination and Alfred took his leave with a slight bow.
Hercule stood at the opposite end of the room, directing a seemingly never-ending flow of food from the kitchen. Gohan's mouth watered at the sight. Upon seeing Gohan and Videl enter the room, Hercule made his way over them.
"Hi sweetpea!" he boomed.
Videl smiled as she introduced Gohan.
"Gohan, you remember my father."
Gohan shook Hercule's hand and gave a slight bow.
"Of course. Its nice to see you again sir."
To Gohan's surprise, Hercule actually laughed.
"Now Gohan, I have a feeling we're going to be seeing quite a bit of each other for a long time to come so there's no need for formalities. Hercule will be just fine."
"Yes sir." Gohan was still slightly nervous. Although he had nothing to fear from Mr. Satan in terms of physical strength, he was entering Videl's life, effectively taking her away from her father. There isn't a boy in the world who doesn't get apprehensive when he meets his girlfriend's father.
Hercule gave another small laugh as he began to walk towards the table.
"And drop the sir. I'm far too young for that."
Now it was Gohan's turn to laugh. This was quite a far cry from the Hercule he remembered at the Cell Games. Even Videl spoke up through their bond.
::I have to say, I'm really surprised. He hasn't acted like this in years. Before Cell actually.::
Gohan just shrugged his shoulders and followed Mr. Satan towards the food. His stomach was beginning to get the best of him again. Videl followed shortly after and they all took their seats.
Hercule immediately lost his appetite after he began to watch Gohan eat. Videl on the other hand, was quickly becoming immune to the sight as if it were an ordinary everyday event and began to eat her own meal slowly. As he continued to watch Gohan, Hercule turned to Videl, surprise etched into his face.
"How on Earth does he eat like that?"
Videl paused as she was raising her chopsticks to her mouth and looked over at Gohan. She wasn't sure if he would be okay with her father knowing everything. Gohan, however, immediately answered the unspoken question.
::It's okay Videl. He deserves to know about his future son-in-law.::
Videl nodded her head and answered her father.
"Well Daddy, Gohan is part Saiyan and Saiyans eat a lot of food."
Hercule was still confused.
"I don't think I've ever heard of a Saiyan before. What part of Earth do they come from?"
Videl was very patient. Its not every day that you learned a person sitting next to you was part alien.
"Saiyans aren't from earth Daddy. They come from another planet. Gohan's Dad is a Saiyan and his mother is a human."
Hercule's mouth dropped like a stone. His eyes blinked rapidly as he tried to digest what Videl had just said. Immediately after the World Martial Arts Tournament had ended, he'd thought perhaps that Gohan was an 'evil alien' but he'd dismissed the idea when he realized Videl could fly as well. Now he was shocked to learn that it was actually true. Well, except the evil part. This boy Gohan looked nice enough.
"Is this true?" Hercule was barely able to form the words in his mouth.
Gohan actually stopped eating so he could reply.
"Yes it is." Of course, he then dove right back into his meal.
Hercule was stunned into silence, a feat which had happened only once before when he was told his wife was pregnant with the girl sitting to Gohan's left. And then he remembered.
***
"Videl?"
"Yes daddy?"
"I was just wondering, that boy you..."
"He has a name daddy. Call him Gohan."
"Okay. Gohan, he, he was that little boy wasn't he?"
"Yes he was."
***
And that's when it finally hit him. The boy sitting across from him was the boy that defeated Cell.
By now, Gohan had finished his meal and was watching Hercule's expression with amusement. It was quite easy to determine what he was thinking.
Finally, Hercule spoke up again.
"Are you mad?"
Gohan couldn't believe it. Hercule actually seemed scared. After what he'd seen of the man before his fight with Cell, he never thought he would have lived to see the day.
"No. I've never wanted publicity. Its enough for me just knowing the Earth is safe." Gohan said with a smile.
Deep inside, Hercule breathed a sigh of relief. Gohan was nothing like he'd imagined he would be.
"For what its worth, I apologize for my actions. I just kinda acted on impulse after you guys disappeared."
Gohan gave a slight shrug.
"It's alright. I really don't mind."
"If you don't mind me asking, I could have sworn you had gold hair at the Cell Games."
Gohan broke into a smile and a slight laugh escaped into the air.
"Well, that's a really long story."
"Perhaps another time then." Hercule then turned to Videl. "So Videl, you said you wanted to talk and so far you've been fairly quiet."
Videl nodded nervously. Hercule may have been a fraud, but he was still her father.
::Its okay Videl. I know you can do this.:: came Gohan's reassuring voice in her mind.
"Well Daddy, Gohan and I engaged and are going to move in together."
Hercule's eyes began to blink rapidly as he once again went into shock.
"I... I don't understand."
This time Gohan was the one who spoke up.
"There's something about Saiyans I think you should know. We don't just marry, we take mates," He paused for a second. "for life."
Gohan tilted his neck to the side and Hercule could see the scar that had already formed. It took him a few seconds to finally realize what it was.
"You mean she bit you??"
"Yes. It's a way of marking your mate so that everyone knows their taken." Gohan didn't feel like explaining the bond that also formed between the two of them. It was going to take long enough as it was to tell Hercule everything else he needed to. "Saiyans don't make mistakes. Once we mate with someone, we're destined to love them til the end of time."
Hercule looked back and forth between Gohan and Videl, trying to wrap his mind around what he'd just heard. His daughter was not married, at least not yet, she was mated to a part alien who defeated Cell. He felt like he was going to pass out.
"Its true daddy. I love him with all my heart."
Hercule let out a loud sigh. It seemed like things were moving at light speed. But he loved his daughter with all his heart and he could easily see how happy she was with Gohan. In fact, she hadn't been this happy since before her mother died.
"Well, then I guess all I can say is congratulations. I just hope their will eventually be a real wedding. I'd still like to give my daughter away."
Gohan and Videl smiled at each other. This was going much better than they could have possibly imagined.
"Thank you daddy. When we set a date, you'll be the first to know."
Hercule nodded in appreciation.
"So when are you going to move out Videl?"
"Well, we found a place near Central City that we really like. We figured that we'd buy a capsule house and set it up out there as soon as possible. Then we'd fly back here until High School was finished."
"So am I to assume that you've decided to go to Nakajima University?"
Videl nodded as an answer and Hercule looked thoughtful at her answer.
"What about you Gohan? Are you going to go to college?"
The instant the question was asked, Videl could sense a darkening of Gohan's mood. She knew he really wanted to go, but circumstances dictated otherwise.
"No, I've decided not to. Instead I'm going to train so I can help prevent another disaster like the one we just went through."
Hercule nodded silently and his admiration of the boy went up several notches. That was a highly honorable thing to do.
"I don't mean to pry, but what are the two of you going to do for money? I just want to make sure that everything will be okay."
Videl was suddenly very glad that she and Gohan had discussed all of this that morning. She knew her father was being very understanding but she was aware how fast his mood could change.
"Gohan has had a trust fund set up in his name by Bulma..."
Videl got cut off as Hercule interrupted.
"Bulma, as in Bulma Briefs?" he asked incredulously.
Gohan nodded.
"The same."
Hercule let out a slight whistle.
"Wow, you certainly have some powerful friends."
"Anyways," Videl interjected, slightly annoyed. "We should be able to live off that for a while. And when that runs out, we figured that Gohan could enter a martial arts tournament and win some money. He doesn't want to take away your title, but perhaps you two could split the difference between first and second prize."
Hercule looked thoughtful and glanced over at Gohan who was nodding his agreement. Eventually, he began nodding his head as well.
"That sounds more than fair to me. And if you guys ever need anything, don't hesitate to ask."
"Thank you daddy." Videl got up and gave her father a huge hug.
Relief flowed through Hercule's body. He'd been afraid that Videl was never going to speak to him again after she'd found out about Cell and now here she was, smiling and hugging him. Even Gohan had a smile as he watched the father-daughter pair.
Finally, Videl and Hercule ended their embrace and Hercule stood up.
"Now if you'll excuse me, I have about a million reporters waiting to hear all about the fight with Buu. But this time, I promise I won't demean you and your friends." Hercule was looking straight at Gohan as he spoke.
"Thank you, I appreciate that."
"You two are more than welcome to stay here together for as long as you need until you get your house set up."
Both Videl and Gohan nodded their thanks as Hercule turned to leave the room.
When Hercule had left, Videl grabbed Gohan's hand and led him down a separate hall. Gohan was glad that Videl was leading because he had been lost the instant they had first step inside the mansion. As they were walking, Videl's voice broke into Gohan's mind.
::Well, that went much better than I'd dared to hope.::
::Yeah no kidding. From what you'd told me while I was teaching you how to fly, I was expecting him to throw a fit.::
Finally they had arrived at their destination and Videl pushed aside two massive doors and walked into a room.
"This is my room. What do you think?"
Gohan had to take a few seconds to absorb what he was seeing. He had his own room at Capsule Corp that was as big as Videl's room, but he could tell that this room had been decorated with an attention towards detail.
"Its amazing. I definitely think you should be in charge of decorating our new house."
Videl watched Gohan with amusement.
"You think so huh?"
"Most definitely." He answered as he walked over to the bed and sat down. "So what would you like to do for the rest of the day?"
"I thought perhaps we could hang out here and watch movies or something." As Videl spoke, she walked over to a gigantic entertainment center under her flat screen plasma TV and opened the doors. Inside, she had almost every DVD ever made.
"That sounds like a great idea." When Videl looked back at Gohan, she saw a twinkle in his eye. "Just as long as we don't watch that horrid rendition of the Cell Games."
Videl laughed and her face turned into a smirk.
"Oh I don't know. I think that's pretty high level comedy."
Gohan simply groaned and fell back into the bed.
A/N: Wow, that was my longest chapter yet. Once I started writing, it just kinda kept coming. For those of you who might say that Hercule is out of character, my response is that this is my fanfic about how I would have had things end up. Therefore, it is perfectly allowable for me to have Hercule act however I want. Once again, I want to say a special thank you to everyone who has reviewed and told me what they think of my story. Please continue!
*Please be kind and review! Thanks!!!*
