Between You and Me
Chapter Two: What to Buy???
Sorry the last chapter was so short, but I couldn't figure things out. It took me longer to post the story than to write it!!! Oh and thank you to my first reviewers:
ShadowFoxHiei and Bakuyuru and the elusive .
And by the way Bakuyuru, I'll try to describe Riona, she doesn't look like Bulma I'm afraid! She looks like me! No, I'm just kidding! You know me!
Goten walked through the empty school building with nothing to do but wait around for Trunks to meet with him after baseball practice. It was after school on Friday and they planned to head to the mall after they finished the practices they had to be at. They were going to get Goten's brother, Gohan, to take them so they could buy gifts for Riona for the birthday party the next day.
Goten's hair was sticking to his face in heavy black clumps. He was just starting on his swim team, but he was a Sayian and was already the best swimmer on his team. Swimming for him was pure enjoyment and he didn't consider it a challenge. More like a warm-up for training when he got home. It was sad that he had really stopped in the fighting department, but he kept it up for his own good.
Somehow, being without Trunks was boring to Goten, even though he sometimes complained that Trunks was mischievous and loud. Maybe it was that Trunks was someone that Goten would never be. Goten was the one who Trunks led around and got into trouble, even when Trunks got out of the punishment, which was most of the time. Trunks drove Goten's mom Chi-Chi crazy, but at the same time, she let him live with them more than he lived at his own home.
"HEY GOTEN!!!" Squeaky shoes paced down the hall as Goten turned to see Trunks running towards him.
"Ok, Trunks, let's go!" Goten laughed and the both met up with Gohan in the parking lot.
At the mall, Gohan let the two go off by themselves and look for gifts. Gohan had to call his wife, Videl, anyway. Goten ran straight to the video store and acted like he was browsing for Riona's gift. Instead he picked up a hack and slash fighting game called, Bloody Horror 2, and checked out the prices.
"Do you think Riona has a GameStation?" Goten asked, not really paying attention. He would probably buy the game regardless of whether she did or not, but then he would end up with no money to buy gifts and keep the game for himself. Trunks planned on save his money for the perfect gift, so he could impress her. Goten had nothing to worry about, he was a genius with girls. It was that look of innocence in his eyes.
"Um Goten, I'm gonna go look around, ok?" Trunks slunk off and looked at all of the movies, but had no idea of where to start. Then he went on to games, knowing that Riona did have a GameStation. Nothing looked good so he went on to anime, totally adoring most of the merchandise for himself. He tried to think of something good for Riona…His and Her Circumstances DVDs sat on the bottom of the shelf and Trunks picked it up and examined it. It was girly and pink with the signature anime style. Trunks was pretty convinced that Riona would eat it up, so he purchased the whole box set and waited for Goten. He had actually found it in his heart to get something for Riona and picked up a Karaoke Date game for her.
"So you got something for her?" Trunks said while they walked towards Gohan who was still sitting in the food court exchanging "I love you," on his cell phone with Videl.
"Yeah, just a game. I figured she would like it," Goten replied, obviously disappointed that he didn't get to buy his own game. Trunks was pretty sure that he hadn't put any thought into his gift. That was good if Trunks wanted to make a good impression. After all, Goten didn't want to impress her, right?
"Trunks, watch out, there's Riona coming towards us…"
Riona flitted her black hair and waltzed towards the pair, looking perfect in Trunks' eyes. She was packed with shopping bags.
"Hey guys, are you all going to the party tomarrow?" Riona asked, her blue eye searching both Goten and Trunks.
"Yeah." They said as if on cue.
"Well, I'll see you guys then!" She shot a model's smile at Trunks and skipped off. Trunks almost melted.
"Um, Dude, Trunks, are you ok?" Goten looked at Trunks like he was nuts.
"I'm ok." Trunks said, coming back to reality and out of Riona dream world. He felt like he had been drooling…
Ok I'm done with this chapter, hope you like it. I'm hoping that I can write the party soon, if I get enough ideas. To tell you the truth I have no ideas!!! Silly me! And I think you'll find it to you satisfaction, Bakuyuru that I added in a useless part of the whole, you know, Riona looks like this!
