Chapter 8
Videl rolled over in bed and picked up the pillow her head was resting on and covered her head. This was just not her night. She'd gotten more rest in the hospital then she was getting at home. It had been one month now since she'd been allowed home, and the thing she hated most, was getting up. Gohan however thouroughly enjoyed it.
"Relax Shorty, I'll get her" Gohan answered as he got out fo bed and walked over to the crib. Immediately the angel was asleep. He smiled. "Your doing this just to get me up arn't you?
Pan giggled. He picked her up out of the crib and carried her over to the bed, where he sat up and pulled the blanket up. Pan dozed off quickly. "Shorty are you alright?" he asked, but Videl just rolled over. "Goodnight" he whispered as he looked down at the angel in his arms. "Goodnight Panny!!!"
Videl was sitting at the kitchen table with Madison and Lived, as Gohan walked downstairs, with Pan in his arms. He set her down gently in the crib in the living room and then walked into the kitchen. He kissed Videl deeply.
"How are you feeling?" he asked
"Better!!!"
"I'm working late tonight, but Bulma will be over with Bra to help you out"
"I'll be fine, i don't need anybody here to baby sit me" Videl said quietly. "Please"
"Alright, i'll tell her when i get to work,"
"You know i'll be here, i can help out" Madison said
"I know, Thank you" Gohan whispered as Lived smiled up at him.
"Are you going to work Unkie Go'an?" Lived asked with what vocabulary he had. Gohan nodded.
"But i'll be back later on"
"can i come with you unkie Go'an?" Asked the youngest male in tho house
"Sorry kido! for Grown ups only!" the chibi looked down sadly "but if your good i'll bring you back something when i get home ok?' Gohan asked, the chibi male jumped into his 'unkie's' arms and gave him a hug.
"Ok Unkie Go'an! i'll be good!"
Gohan stood back up and looked at his wife and his sister-in-law. 'i better be going now'
He walked over to Videl and kissed her on the lips as Lived complained in the backgroud about 'to much kissy kissy stuff!'
"Bye Gohan!!!" Madison said as the man left.
'See you both tonight' Gohan said and walked out the door. Videl and Madison continued to sit at the table and drink there coffee while Lived played on the floor with his toys.
"So Videl...." Madison started but was drowned out but the sound of a crying pan. Videl got up and walked off.
Madison sipped her coffee again, but stopped when she realised Pan was still crying.
"Mommy why won't it stop?" Lived asked covering his ears. He hated the sound of Pan crying.
"I don't know, wait in here!!!" Madison said as she walked into the living room. She paused when she saw Pan. Videl was no where in site. 'That girl, whats wrong with her? She was always paying attentiont to her in the hospital' Madison thought walking over and picking up the child."Lived Sweetie, im gonna be upstairs with Videl!!!"
"Okay Mom!!!"
Madison walked into Videl's room to find Videl stretched out on the bed reading a magazine."Videl!!!"
No answer.
"Videl!!!!" Madison said raising her voice. "Your Daughter wants a feed!!" she placed Pan in Videl's lap and Videl began to feed her daughter. All the while she had this far off look on her face.
'I don't think that looks normal' Madison thought "Videl!!! Are you ok!!!"
At that moment Videl pushed the child away and buttoned up her shirt. Her eyes were glazed, and her breathing was slow. The child was no longer on her lap, but rather on the pillow beside her. Madison picked up Pan who was now crying and sat down beside her.
"'Del whats wrong?"
Videl remained silent.
"Please tell me i can't help you if you don't let me know whats wrong with you"
"Just leave me alone" Videl cried "Please"
"'Del!" Madison whispered
"JUST GO!!!!" Videl yelled turning away from her cousin.
"Fine i will, if you need me i'll be downstairs, i'll have Pan with me" and with that she left.
Videl began to cry. She didn't know what was wrong with her. She felt horrible but couldn't help herself. Besides it had only been going on for a few weeks, she was sure it would go away towards the end of the week.
That night Gohan walked through the door and found Madison on the sofa with both Lived and Pan on her lap.
"Madison, exactly how war....." a manly voice said as a man walked into the living room.He had tall spikey blue hair, not tall but not short, kinda like Gohan's. He looked to be the same height as well roughly 6'4. He was muscular too, very muscular for a fact, especially since he was only wearing a white tank.
"Jackson?" Gohan asked
"Yeh man!" Jackson answered as he walked over to Gohan. He held his hand out, and was relieved when he shook his hand. Gohan smiled. He looked at this young man.
"what are you doing back here, i thought you'd gone home again?" Gohan asked placing his suitcase n the table and taking Pan from Madison.
"I did, but i decided to stay here!" Jackson answered looking over at Madison. "I got too much to lose"
"Well I'm Glad where's Shorty?" Gohan asked concerned
"In her room, she's been there since you left!!" Madison said looking up at the man holding his daughter. "I'm really worried about her Gohan"
"I am too!"
The following Afternoon at Capsule Corporation Gohan typed away at the computer he was sitting at. Bulma behind him working on her latest invention. A new model of the carry around Wardrobe built into a watch, locket or necklace.
"Hows Pan?" Bulma asked curiosly
"She's fine but..!"
"But? PAss me the screwdriver please?"
Gohan passed her a screwdriver and faced her. "Videl's been acting strange, i know it's only been a few weeks, but Videl just doesn't seem her usual self" Gohan said worriedly "And I'm worried, yesterday Madison told me that Videl didn't want to feed Pan anymore, she was breastfeeding and then just all of a sudden pushed her away, it's not like her"
"Hmm!!" Bulma answered thoughtfully "Pass me my notebook over there please?"
Gohan handed her the notebook. "What am i to do Bulma?"
"Well i think it might be a start if you take Pan off breastfeeding and start bottle feeding her, it'll take a lot off Videl's back"
"That's it?"
"Just to start off with and see if things improve" Bulma smiled as she stood up and sat next to the demi saiyan. "Relax, she'll be fine"
"I hope so!!"
"If things don't improve book her into Dr Daily!!, he's sure to find out whats wrong!"
"Thanks Bulma!"
"No problem Kid" Bulma answered "Oh by the way we're having a barbacue in a few days, and we'd like it if you, Videl, Madison, Pan and Lived came"
"I'll try i promise, these other jobs are really going to tie me down alot" at that moment his watch beeped. "Gotta go!"
"Look Kid!! Your way over due for a promotion drop a few of these jobs ok!"
Gohan smiled."We'll see"
That Night
Videl lied in bed, with a black folder on her lap, and a peice of paper. She was writing on it constantly. Occasionally stopping to think.Gohan walked into the room, with a towel around his waist. she looked up quickly then looked down.
He looked at her.This was the first time in 9 monthes since she had been able to control herself around him. Whenever he used to walk into the room with nothing but a towel on, she' immediately kiss him and proceed to do some other business. But not tonight. He put on some boxers and sat down on the bed beside her.
"Hey Princess!!!" he whispered as he leant in to kiss her neck.
"Sweetie?" Videl whispered
He looked up. "Yeh"
"Am i a bad mother?" she looked at him seriously. He wrapped his arms aroudn her comfortingly before he kissed her forehead.
"Shorty!!! Whatever made you think that?"
"I don't know!!!" she said sobbing into his chest.
"Shorty, Shorty, look up at me!!" he reaced for her chin and made her face him. "Why didn't you tell me this sooner!!!"
She just cried harder.
"Look i think it's time i took you out somewhere, just you and me!"
"How we got Pan!!" Videl whispered wiping away her tears.
"Madison will watch her for us!!! We started her on the bottle tonight!"
"I'd like that" she whispered softly leaning into his arms and resting her head on his masculine chest. He was so warm. And whenver she found herself wrapped in his embrace, she felt like nothing bad could ever happen.
"Well i've got tommorow off, and im all yours"
"Lets stay home!!!, let Madison go out i just want to stay in the house"
Gohan sighed. This wasn't like her at all. At least he'd got her talking to him a bit more.
