Part 4: School Daze
Chapter 20: Only Friends?
Yet another update for this fic. Some of you may be wondering why I'm updating this one so much lately. The reason for this is that I want to get this fic done so that I can concentrate more on the two other fics I'm currently working on as well as to allow me to get another multi-chapter fic posted.
I do not own Dragonball Z.
============================================================================
"Quiet down class!" Said the teacher as she strode into the room. The classroom full of students did nothing. "Class be quiet!" She said at a level just below a yell. Again the class didn't respond. "SIT YOUR ASSES DOWN AND SHUT THE HELL UP!" She yelled. All conversations ceased in an instant as the students made a mad dash for their seats.
A second later Videl walked through the door with a huge smile on her face. The raven-haired girl's classmates gulped in fear. They had learned that it usually meant trouble when Videl is happy.
"I'm glad that you managed to make room in your busy schedule to come to class, Miss Satan."
"No prob Ms. B!" Videl replied happily with a smile as she took her seat. The teacher rolled her eyes before reading over the morning's announcements.
"I'd watch it. Ms. Bird isn't in a good mood today." Said a blonde girl from beside Videl.
"I think it's her time of the month and she's PMS'ing." Added the blonde boy sitting on the other side of the girl. His comment earned him a swift smack from Erasa.
"Sharpner! Just because a woman is in a bad mood doesn't mean she's PMS'ing."
"Huh? She's in a bad mood?" Responded Videl, ignoring the melodrama beside her. She looked at the teacher to see her grumbling to herself as she went over her lesson plan for the day. "Oh, I guess you're right."
"Ok, that's it." Erasa said while looking at her friend.
"What's it?"
"At first I thought Hell had frozen since you're happy. But now I know that the universe is about to end since you're not only happy but completely clueless to the world around you."
Videl blinked at her friend. 'I'm not clueless. If I was clueless then I wouldn't remember exactly what Gohan looked like when we were in the shower this morning.' The girl reasoned within her mind. 'Nor would I remember that kiss he gave me out in the hall. Oh yeah' ::You can come in Gohan.:: She told him through their bond. They had decided that it'd be best not to come in together since the entire school didn't need to know about them just yet. In reply there was a knock on the door.
Ms. Bird sighed as she threw her book onto the desk before walking over to the door. "What do you want?!" She growled as she flung the door open.
"Hi!" Gohan said cheerfully. Unfazed by the look in the woman's eyes since he sees worse almost every day. "I'm Son Gohan."
"Oh, so you're the new brainiac that I'm supposed to teach."
"Yes ma'am." Gohan replied politely.
"Well?" Asked the woman when Gohan didn't move. "Are you going to stand there all day or are you going to come in?"
"Oh uh right. Just umm"
"What now?" The woman asked in exasperation.
"I can't enter the classroom if you're standing in the doorway." Replied Gohan while giving her the famous Son grin.
"Smart-ass" Mumbled the teacher as she moved out of the way.
The instant Gohan set foot into the classroom all the girls sighed while all the guys groaned. Videl couldn't help the smile on her face at the thought of having this perfect guy all to herself. But that wasn't the only reason for her smile. She was thinking about how much fun it'll be to beat up any girl that is unlucky enough to hit on Gohan.
"QUIET!" Ms. Bird quipped. "This is Son Gohan. Obviously he's here to learn. He got perfect scores on the entrance exams. Now tell us about your self."
"Right." Said Gohan as he stood before the sea of faces. A slight smile on his face when he saw Videl wink at him from the back of the room. "I'm Son Gohan"
"No kidding. The teach already said that."
"Unless you want a detention I suggest that you be quiet, Sharpner."
"Uhem, as I was going to say. I have a little brother named Goten, and I enjoy reading and practicing martial arts."
This time Sharpner raised his hand. "If you're into martial arts then why don't you and I have a little match during gym." He said when Ms. Bird nodded her head towards him. Gohan and Videl smirked at the suggestion.
"Sure, why not." Replied Gohan.
"You can take your seat now Mr. Son." The teacher said disinterestedly. Without a word, Gohan walked up the stairs towards the empty seat next to Videl. "Today is a free day. You can do whatever you want. Just be quiet." Added Ms. Bird as she sat at her desk and pulled out a book.
"Hi." Said Gohan after sitting down.
"You're cutie. My name's Erasa by the way. This big lug next to me is Sharpner. And this here is"
"Videl." Replied Gohan, unfazed by the girl's statement while he could tell the Videl, although not pleased with Erasa's comment, was restraining herself from doing anything rash.
"Well I should have known you'd recognize Mr. Satan's daughter."
"Actually, he knows me." Videl said, smirking happily at the look on her friend's face.
"What?! You're friends with thiswait, you two are just friends right?" Gohan and Videl nodded. "How come you never told me that you know such a hot guy, Videl? I'm hurt."
Videl laughed at her friend. "It slipped my mind?"
"Oh, ok." Replied Erasa, totally missing that Videl had said that as a question.
"So who teaches you martial arts?" Asked Sharpner.
"Well, I was originally taught my a man named Piccolo, and then by my dad. But I no longer really have a sensei."
"Ha! I knew it! It'll be sooo easy to kick your ass when we spar. I've been taught by Mr. Satan himself!" The boy bragged.
"I thought I recognized you."
"Huh?"
"I saw you in the dojo when I was there with Videl one time. You seemed to be losing badly as I recall."
Sharpner's face burned red. "That must have been when I first started." He mumbled while Videl and Erasa laughed.
"Actually, it was about three months ago." Gohan added with a smirk.
"That doesn't matter! I'll still beat you!" He said confidently.
"I'll let you in a on little secret Sharpner." Said Videl with a smile. "Gohan is one of the few people that can beat me in a spar." Sharpner paled slightly at this.
'What have I gotten myself into?' Thought the blonde haired boy as the other three members of the small group chatted quietly.
In case you were wondering, the character of Ms. Bird is one I thought up while writing this and she is not based on anyone I know. Also, this isn't the last time she'll be mention in this fic since she'll come up as a topic of discussion later on in the school day.
I hope you enjoyed it and please review.
