When Videl got back in her room she picked up the phone and called Erasa.
"Hello?"
"Hey Erasa? It's Videl." She said.
"Oh hi Videl! How are you?" Erasa asked her, happy that she called.
"I'm okay, I have something to ask you." Videl told her.
"What is it?"
"Gohan told you about me losing my memory, right?" She asked Erasa.
"So Gohan told you finally! I told him to tell you, I don't know why he was acting like such an idiot." Erasa said, happily.
Videl paused, her throat tightening slightly.
"Because I thought I was in love with Saiyaman..." She confessed.
"What?! With Saiyaman? Wow that must have been hard for him..." Erasa replied.
"Yeah. But Erasa I want you to... well can you tell me about my relationship with Gohan, I went on a date with him today but I still don't have all my memories back." Videl explained.
"Well... you guys were girlfriend and boyfriend, I could tell you about times I've seen you on dates and stuff you told me, how much of it do you want to know about?" Erasa asked her.
Videl sat down on her bed, intent.
"All of it." She said, smiling.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'That at the end was almost like before she lost her memory.' He thought, dreamily, blocking one of Trunk's punches.
He was in fact in mid thought and fighting Trunks, Goten, and Rin. The three boys glared at him as he was absentmindedly blocking their attacks.
'Or maybe that date was out of pity?' his thoughts were cut short as he was hurled to the ground.
"Wha?" he said, seeing that the boys had tackled him.
"Now will you pay attention to us and get your head out of the clouds?" Rin asked, looking him in the eye.
"Yeah!" the other boys agreed.
Gohan laughed.
"Okay, okay..."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Going back to school after finding out that Gohan and her were boyfriend and girlfriend was weird. People asked her if they were broken up. She didn't know what to say at this question, she decided to say no since they never officially broke up.
In class she sat next to Gohan and Erasa, it felt sort of weird, like in the movie theatre. But instead of a movie, she had a boring teacher. Videl broke from the drone of her history teacher's voice when Gohan tapped her arm. He slipped a paper towards her.
Been doing much training lately? -Gohan
She smiled at him and wrote back.
Not really, a lot of things have been happening as you must have noticed. -Videl
Well we just got off of the WMAT so it's fine that everyone takes a rest from training. I could tell when I was fighting you that you had trained a lot.
They were having a normal conversation, it wasn't awkward or anything she wondered if it helped that they were writing instead of talking. She paused, wondering if she should take this opportunity to ask him something that she could never say out loud.
Gohan, when did you first tell me that you loved me?
When she passed this to him she noticed from his reaction that this was not the question he was expecting. When he passed it back she noticed his writing was jerky.
The day you got shot.
A flood of memories came back to her, the day her father slapped her she left crying, she went to her school, alone. She went to meet someone but she couldn't remember who, she realised that this must have been Gohan and then... a flash of pain when she was shot.
What did I say?
You said "You silly boy, I love you too!"
Why would I call you a silly boy, that doesn't sound like me at all.
Hey, I'm just quoting, don't ask me. Oh yeah and you also called me cute a lot, I think you should start that up again.
He was flirting with her? Videl smiled and wrote back.
What will you do for me if I do?
Let's see... How about spar with you and actually let you get a punch through?
She looked up into his laughing eyes and glared at him, playfully.
That is so not fair, you're not supposed to make fun of people you've trained.
Okay, okay, you were a pretty good student so I'll let you off the hook.
She was about to write some more when she felt the floor rumble.
"EARTHQUAKE! GET UNDER YOUR DESKS!!" their history teacher raved, panicking.
Videl hurriedly went under the desk, seeing Gohan do the same. In unison, the class counted to sixty, with the sounds of things falling down all around them. Once everything was calm Gohan and Videl got out from under the desks.
"There's got to be trouble in the city." he murmured to her.
Videl nodded.
"Let's go." She told him.
Running out of the school, Gohan changed into his Saiyaman costume quickly and they leapt to the air. She looked around wide-eyed, trying to figure out which emergency to deal with first. Soon the rumbles ended and her watch ringed as they expected it would. Videl answered it, hurriedly.
"Videl! We need you in the business district, now!"
"Be right there." She answered.
She looked at Gohan and they left. The chief had given her no hint as to what problem the earthquake had caused in the business district but it became all to clear once they got there: everything. Her breath caught as she saw the strewn mangled bodies of people who were unlucky enough to be outside in the earthquake and the ripped up roads and buildings. Trying to keep her composure at the sight, she glanced at Gohan who had the same look. His eyes suddenly widened, horrified. He rushed a few feet away, he was kneeling next to a woman with long, red hair who was trapped underneath a piece of pavement. Amazingly, the woman was alive, Videl quickly rushed over. The woman's lips parted.
"Off...take it off... please." She rasped.
Videl saw him gulp and then, dutifully obliged. She heard a muffled grunt from the woman before her eyes rolled to the back of her head. She felt tears on her cheeks, she knew the moment that she saw the buried woman that she was doomed to die but still she wept for her life.
She sighed as she felt his hand on her shoulder, she could tell he wanted to comfort her, but there was no time for that.
"Let's go, the chief must be looking for us." She said.
Gohan nodded, searching her eyes to make sure she would be alright.
"Right."
When they got to the chief he sighed in relief.
"Videl and Saiyaman, we got all of these skyscrapers with people trapped inside. We're sure we can get the others, but we need you to take at least one. There are some floors that will be hard to get to, can you do it?" he asked.
"Alright, we'll take this one, you just have some ambulances outside waiting." Gohan told him.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Videl handed over the last person to the paramedic and promptly plopped down in an area where the press wouldn't ask her any more questions. Doing just one building had drained her emotionally and physically. Gohan sat down next to her, she managed to smile, going through all this made her feel closer to him.
"How are you feeling?" he asked her.
She thought she had no tears left but apparently she had. He came closer and she put her arms around his neck and rested her head on his shoulder. She felt him curl her arms around her waist and was glad for it. After she had stopped crying she looked into his concerned eyes.
"Gohan, thanks for not just leaving me, I really appreciate you being here." She told him, smiling.
He looked surprised then smiled a smile not unlike her own.
"What do you expect, I love you."
Videl looked at him, she couldn't think of anyone at the moment she'd rather be with. She took off his helmet.
"Videl! What-" he asked her but he didn't manage to finish before she kissed him. When she pulled away she noticed he had a look of amazement on his face.
"So does this mean our last date wasn't out of pity?" he asked.
"No, you silly boy!" She told him.
"HA! You DO say silly boy!" He exclaimed.
She laughed.
"Okay, maybe sometimes, but anyway Gohan I really like spending time with you." She told him, sincerely.
"I just wish I could have all my memories back..." she said sadly.
"I think there's a way." Gohan told her.
