New chapter, and a long one at that! I particularly like how this one ends, but that's just me. Thank you everyone who reviewed last chapter! A lot of people have been saying I should bunch my chapters together to make long chapters, which I think is a good idea.. but I like my chapter name! I've decided that I don't care if I have 50 chapters, they're short ones and I love thinking up the chapter names. Anyway enjoy the chapter and please read and review.

"Marry me."

Videl looked up at Gohan in shock. He himself looked surprised at what he had said, but he didn't open his mouth to say anymore, he meant what he said.

"Get married? But we're just in high school.." she started.

She was confused, she just got her memories back and of course she loved him more than ever but marriage? It seemed like some far off part of life, but here it was being presented to her, so suddenly. At her doubt, the shine in Gohan's eyes lessened.

"I'm sorry, I'm being too pushy, aren't I? Forget what I just said, just being with you is enough." He said, waving his last sentence away.

He pulled her closer, and she rested her head on his chest and inwardly sighed happily. She did want to get married someday, and she couldn't imagine being married to anyone else than Gohan. She loved him, she loved his goofy poses when he was Saiyaman, she loved his little insecurities around her even if they were a couple, she loved how he smiled, she loved how he could treat everyone around him with kindness and still make her feel special when he said something nice to her. She loved the notes he would scrawl to her in class, she loved how he could make her laugh when she had been feeling like shit, she loved how he kissed.. and she loved that he loved her. A smile spread across her face. She hoped he had been serious when he had asked her to marry him.

"Do you really want me to forget that?" she started, feeling the rise and fall of his breathing.

He sighed.

"Yeah, forget it."

She closed her eyes for a moment. He was still breathing quite rhythmically.

"Oh, because I would have said yes." She said.

His chest no longer rose and fell, he was holding his breath. She opened her eyes as he let go of her and held her face in his hands.

"Yes?" he asked her, confused.

She grinned.

"Yes."

"Really?"

"Really."

She noticed he was blushing, something she hadn't seen him do in a long time, it was.. so cute! He whisked her back into his arms. Her head plopped back down on to his chest, where she lay content.

"How dare you toy with my emotions." He said, sounding hurt.

She smirked.

"It's good practice for marriage." She said.

Suddenly it both hit them, separating, they looked at each other in shock.

"Did we just-?" Videl started.

"-get engaged?" Gohan finished.

"I was just thinking, we don't have to rush getting married, right?" She said.

"I was just thinking the same thing, not while we're still in high school, right? Being engaged for awhile wouldn't be so bad, now would it?" He said, smiling.

"Ha, your mom's going to FREAK."

He nodded knowingly.

"I guess, but in a happy 'you're going to get married!' kind of way, unlike your father.." He said, morbidly.

"Yeah, I can see it now, 'You're marrying my daughter? MY DAUGHTER?!!' but that'll probably it, since you're pretty strong, he probably won't do something like challenge you or anything."

They looked into each other's eyes, it was like a dream, they were engaged. He bent down to kiss her, while Videl rose to meet his lips when the door abruptly opened.

"EEEEEAHHH!!!!" Gohan yelled when the ominous form of Hercule burst into the room.

"WHAT ARE YOU TWO DOING?!!!" He yelled.

She smiled sweetly. Gohan could see what she was about to say and he silently begged her not to, not now.

"Daddy, it's okay, it's not like it's indecent or anything." She said.

"Of course it's not decent, why oh why in my house, Videl, how long have you been going out?! I don't care what you say, he is not worthy!" Hercule began blabbering away.

"Of course he's worthy, he's my fiancé." She said stubbornly.

'There, she went and said it.' Gohan thought, shielding his head from flying debris.

When he didn't hear the sounds of destruction, he looked up. Hercule had apparently turned to stone. She put a hand on his shoulder.

"He'll be like this for awhile, let's go tell your mom and Goten." She said.

When they got to Gohan's house they went in enthusiastically, they found Goten and Chichi in the living room watching a rerun of The Videl and Saiyaman show. They both looked up when the two arrived, smiling greatly.

"You two are together again?" His mother asked, smiling.

Gohan nodded.

"Yeah Videl regained her memories, but that's not all.." he said looking at Videl.

"We're engaged!" she exclaimed.

Chichi smiled happily. Goten's jaw dropped.

"So.. you're going to marry my brother?" he asked, excited.

"After high school's done." Videl answered him.

Gohan put an arm around her shoulder.

"Well I'm happy for you two, and I'm glad you've decided to wait until after high school." Chichi said.

Gohan and Videl frowned slightly at her reaction, she seemed rather calm for what they had announced. She remembered something.

"Oh yeah, we have to go tell Erasa and everyone, we'd better go." She said.

He nodded and looked to his mother.

"Alright, see you later mom." He said.

Chichi nodded and Gohan left. Goten looked up at his mother with concern.

"Mommy, are you feeling okay?" he asked her.

Chichi couldn't hold it anymore.

"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!" she screamed.

His eyes widened drastically in shock. After she had finished screaming Chichi rushed to the phone.

"Hello, Bulma? He asked her to marry him! Get over here right away!"

"That was strange, I expected more of a reaction from her." Gohan said, on the way to Sharpner's house.

Videl looked down to the ground as they walked.

"You.. you don't suppose she's mad, do you?" she asked softly.

He stopped walking suddenly and looked at her. She looked up at him hesitantly with worried eyes. He pulled her into a hug.

"Of course she's not Videl, you know she loves you, but I don't know maybe it was a shock to her. It's fine, I'll talk to her later about it, don't worry." He said.

They stayed like that for awhile until they heard someone speak.

"So I take it you two are back together?"

They looked to their side and there were Sharpner and Erasa walking arm in arm and grinning at them. Gohan and Videl parted and smiled knowingly back at them.

"Yeah, and more, we actually came over to say that.." She started, blushing for the first time in awhile.

"We're engaged." He finished for her.

Erasa and Sharpner's eyes widened, whatever they had been expecting, it wasn't that.

"Wow.. that's amazing you guys." He said, laughing.

Erasa went up and hugged the couple.

"I'm so happy for you two!!" she exclaimed, joyfully.

"You HAVE to let me plan your wedding!"

"Ha, if you can beat my mom to it." Gohan laughed.

"If she's going.." Videl murmured.

He gave her a quick glance and opened his mouth only to be interrupted by Erasa.

"What? She doesn't want you two to get married?! Well I'll have a word with her!!" She said, jumping to conclusions.

She started to walk briskly in a direction. The others looked at each other then walked quickly to catch up with her. They had been walking for awhile, not talking, when Sharpner decided to speak up.

"Honey, maybe you shouldn't-" he managed to say before Erasa cut him off.

"Maybe I shouldn't? Maybe I shouldn't?! If I don't, then who will help these poor star crossed lovers? Tell me who? WHO?!?!?!?!" she ranted before she was interrupted.

The theme song for Trunten's newest movie came on and she answered her cell phone.

"Hello?" she asked happily while the others sweat dropped at the sudden change of mood.

"Uh huh.. uh huh.. OOH! Uh huh.. okay bye!" she said.

She put her phone away and started skipping along.

"Uh.. Erasa, who was that?" Gohan asked.

She stopped skipping and looked like she had been backed into a corner.

"Uh.. it was.. Sharpner's mistress! How could you?!" She said, slapping Sharpner.

"What?!!" he yelled.

"Please give us a minute to talk about Sharpner's infidelities." She said to Videl and Gohan, dragging a bewildered Sharpner off.

They looked at each other with raised eyebrows. Erasa was definitely hiding something. A little while later her and Sharpner came back.

"We.. um.. worked it out." He explained.

"And now back to rampaging!" She said, now walking quite half-heartedly to her target.

"Erasa, may I ask you a question?" Videl asked.

"As long as it isn't about Sharpner's mistress."

"Don't worry, it's not. We're walking to Gohan's house, are we not?" She asked, lifting an eyebrow.

"Yeeeesss.." Erasa answered.

"Why are we walking?" Videl asked.

Erasa stopped walking.

"Oh yeah! Um.. does anyone have some mode of transportation?" She asked.

They all looked to Videl simultaneously, she sighed and got a capsule out. And so they just hopped on Videl's helicopter, on the way to Gohan's house. When they arrived at their destination they found outside to be quiet, no sounds of dinosaurs scampering about or even the sound of Goten causing some sort of mischief. Both Gohan and Videl tried to ignore the invading silence but it gave them both the creeps. It didn't help that Erasa and Sharpner had left them to go into the house without them noticing either. Belatedly, they went to catch up with the pair. The house was dark.

"Erasa? Sharpner?" Videl called out.

Gohan snorted.

"We were probably wrong about them going into the house, they're probably off making out somewhere." He said, making her laugh.

"We are not!" Yelled Sharpner, though they couldn't see him.

"Shut up you idiot!" that was Erasa's voice this time.

They heard a sigh and someone turned on the light.

"Um.. Surprise!" said the crowd of people cramped together in the living room.

Videl looked at the crowd of people with wide eyes, then to the banner that said "Congratulations Gohan and Videl".

"Wh..what?" she asked, confused.

Chichi came out and gave Videl a hug.

"You wouldn't believe how hard it was for me to keep my face straight after you told me that you were engaged, I'm so happy!"

She released the girl. Videl had shed the look of confusion in favour for a happy one.

"Wow, everyone's here, aren't they?" Gohan said, amazed.

"You think I'd miss this?" Yamcha asked.

"Yeah, congratulations Gohan and Videl, didn't think you two would get engaged so quickly, but it is you two after all so I don't know why I was so surprised." Krillen said, laughing.

Videl turned to Erasa and Sharpner, who were eating some chips from the snack table.

"Did you two know about this?" she asked.

Erasa sighed.

"I'm sorry that I lied to you Videl. You may not believe me but that wasn't Sharpner's mistress that called me."

"Really?" Videl said, holding down laughter.

"No, it was really Gohan's mom, who told me about this surprise party." Erasa explained.

"Hey, why does she have your cell phone number, anyway?" Sharpner asked, but no one paid attention to him.

The party lasted well into the night, somewhere during the party, however Videl lost Gohan, he was nowhere to be found. She asked everyone but no one knew where he was. Why would he leave their own party?

As day turned into night she stepped out of the house for some fresh air. It was cold out and she could see her breath in front of her. She hugged her arms to her body for warmth and closed her eyes, taking deep breaths of the frigid, invigorating air. Suddenly she stopped in mid breath when she realised that the air was no longer cold, and neither was she. She opened her eyes to the sight of Gohan standing before her, ki emanating from his body. He smiled at her and powered down.

"You know you didn't have to freeze like that, you can use ki to heat up your body too." He said.

She laughed, her breath forming in front of her now since he powered down.

"I always forget I can do that now, just like when I was looking for you tonight. Instead of asking everyone where you were, I could have just sensed that you weren't anywhere near."

He enveloped her in his arms and she was warm once again.

"I'm sorry for running off like that, I had to pick up something." He said.

"What would that be?"

Still holding Videl, Gohan dug around in his pocket, coming out with something she couldn't see.

"This." He said, sliding the ring onto her finger.

Her eyes softened as she looked upon Gohan, she then looked at her ring. White gold, with sapphire and diamonds, she would have been happy this day just to have been engaged to him. She looked back to him.

"I love you." She whispered.

Their lips met and they both felt something familiar, it was something they only felt around each other, and now more than ever. It was rapture.
