HELLO! I know I know, it's been about two weeks since I last updated. But hey, there's a first time for everything! It's just that lately, I've been lacking the inspiration to write. It's not writer's block, because I know where this is going. I don't know, I'm just really REALLY uninspired to write I guess right now. But I managed to write you another chapter!

THANKS FOR ALL THE REVIEWS!

Disclaimer: this thing again? When will you get the message that I don't own anything huh?

Chapter 15

Problems Begin

Two weeks later….

A man and a woman, the groom and the bride, soon to be husband and wife, stood by the altar, their hands intertwined, their eyes focused on nothing but each other, love and happiness shinning in their eyes, readily reciting their vows…

Gohan grinned, his large hands caressing Videl's own reassuringly. "I will love you and cherish you….

Videl sighed in relief, damn was she nervous…but after he smiled at her that way, that smile that only he could do, she was comforted. She wanted to do this, she was ready to face anything, as long as she had this man by her side there is nothing they couldn't do.

….so long as we both shall live…"

The priest smiled over them and waved his hands. "I now pronounce you, husband and wife."

The crowd held their breathe.

"You may kiss the bride…"

And that's exactly what the groom did, he kissed Videl…..and the crowd cheered. But none of this was noticed, as far as Gohan and Videl knew, they were alone, only with each other, exactly how they wanted it.

As soon as they pulled away, ketchup stained their cheeks before they faced the joyful crowd before them. It's been a long journey, but they finally made it…

Steven yanked the man beside him and blew his nose on the poor guy's sleeves, tears welled up in his eyes. He grabbed his microphone and sighed in content, lifting it to his mouth. "AND CUT!"

He hopped off his chair and waltzed to the stage, crying and sobbing all the while. "Wonderful job everyone, especially Gohan and Videl. You two are amazing together, simply breathtaking. You guys are like cheese and crackers or cookies and cream or even a dick and condoms!"

Gohan and Videl looked at each other embarrassed, their cheeks turning even redder. "Okay Steven….we get the point."

"Both of you are practically made for each other! You have this bond and connection that just makes everyone who sees you bothtogether say 'Awwwww.' Don't you guys think so?"

He turned to the other casts of the movie and they all nodded and cheered with approval, Gohan and Videl stood in place, dying with shame. Steven smiled at them, then cleared his throat inquisitively. "Are you sure there's nothing going on between you two? Because if there is then tell me! So I can make a sequel to this movie!"

"Seriously, there is nothing going on between Gohan and I, Steven." Videl answered him, still a bit flushed.

"Are you sure?"

"Positive." Gohan replied with a slight smirk.

"Well then what ARE you two hmmmmm?"

"Friends." The couple said together, a little bit too quick.

Steven raised his brow, everyone else watched them closely with knowing smirks.

Gohan and Videl looked at each other worriedly, then back at Steven. "Good Friends? Yeah, that's it! Uhmm…really REALLY good friends!"

Steven rolled his eyes while everyone shook their heads. It doesn't take a genius to see that these two are in love. Heck it doesn't even take Goku to notice it. They maybe the best actors but they stink at hiding their feelings from each other, much less from everyone else.

"Sure….whatever you say. Well it certainly has been an unforgettable experience making this movie with the both of you. I'm sure we'll all earn a fortune from it. I'll see you both in the first screening in America then ne?"

Gohan took Videl's hand in his and they both nodded with an eager smile.

The aging director shook his head with a laugh. He knew that the two couldn't wait to get away from here already. So, being a sucker for romance, he turned to everyone and raised his microphone with a big grin. "THAT'S A WRAP!"

After that was said, the two bolted for the door in a fit of laughter. Everyone stared at their retreating form with a smile, Steven snickered at them. "Those two look so perfect don't they?"

Yes, yes they do.


Hercule laughed that annoying laugh as he watched old martial arts tournaments in his living room, a bowl of popcorn in his hands, clad only in his boxers with his old championship belt wrapped around his waist. Embarrassing really, well disgusting was more the word.

"Oh yeah! Hercule's mighty megatomic PUNCH! HAHA! No one can beat the CHAMP!" He praised himself, patting his belt proudly before stuffing a handful of popcorn in his big mouth.

Reaching for the table, he popped open a can of beer and gulped it down in seconds, using the back of his hand to wipe his mouth clean, his eyes glued to the screen.

And Mr. Satan is the winner once again!

The television announced, bloating Hercule's ego even more.

"OH YEAH! You go you handsome strong rug you! You're the man!" He cheered, lifting his beer can up high.

Then the door bell rang.

Annoyed and irritated, Hercule got up from his big lazy ass and stalked over to the door. He gave all the servants a day off, so he was alone in the big mansion, something he now regreted. Scratching his belly, he flung the door open and barked at the intruder.

"What the hell do you want!"

A muscular blonde looked up from his polished shoes with an arrogant smirk. Taking his sunglasses off; he greeted, "Mr. Satan! Nice to see you!"

Hercule raised a furry brow at him, taking a swig from his beer. "Who are you and what do you want? I'm a very busy man, and you are disturbing my uhhh hectic schedule, that's right! You are disturbing my hectic schedule!"

The man only smiled, possibly aiming for polite smile, but only managed arrogance. "Oh yes, I'm sorry to disturb you Mr. Hercule. But there is something that I want to discuss with you, something you might find very……..unacceptable."

Hercule threw his beer aside, his interest peaked. "Concerning….?"

"Your daughter."

The 'World Savior' frowned at this, worry washing over him. "What about Videl?"

"I'd really rather talk to you," He glanced around before turning back to Hercule. "In private…if you know what I mean."

Hercule narrowed his eyes but opened the door wider, stepping aside and allowing the man to enter. He shut the door behind him and cleared his throat.

"So who are you?"

The blonde smirked and took his hand out, his eyes glistening with evil intent. "Pencil, Sharpener Pencil."


"Gu u bewive it? An awkwal wappy whending." Gohan tried to say, but his mouth was so stuffed with food his face resembled a squirrel that swallowed too much nuts at once. Videl glared at him as much as she could, but couldn't contain the giggle she was desperately suppressing.

"Gohan, I can't understand a word you're saying." Videl said, picking up her chopsticks.

He grinned at her sheepishly, before swallowing. "I said can you believe it. An actual happy ending."

"Happy ending on what?" Videl questioned, grabbing her bowl of rice.

"In our movie," Gohan replied smiling, before digging in again in a pig-like manner but slower than his usual speed. He didn't want to get another lecture from Videl again.

She nodded. "I know eh. I never believed in happy endings you know….until now. Finally it's over though! But it was a good experience wasn't it?"

Gohan looked up from his food and nodded, then focused at the task at hand once again. It was only when Videl gasped out loud that he stopped eating. In the blink of an eye Gohan was at her side, a comforting hand on her shoulder, concern etched on his face.

"Videl, what's wrong?" He whispered with worriedly. She's been having these pains for weeks; it would attack her at random times with no particular pattern. Like an on and off disease, which made Gohan worry over her even more. He had asked her to consult a doctor and tried to reason with her that it maybe something serious, but this is Videl we're talking about, and she is as stubborn as he is, maybe even more so. She refused to go to the doctors, claiming she's never had to before and never will. She always claimed she was fine, like she was doing now.

Videl bit on her lower lip and clutched her belly and her heart in pain. He knelt down to her level, rubbing her back and asked "Videl, are you okay? Please let me take you to a doctor, it maybe something bad."

She winced as pain hit her again, then took a deep breathe as it subsided. Relaxing herself, she took Gohan's hand in hers and pulled him closer. "I'll be fine if you kiss me."

He smiled, and complied. "Let me take your pain away…"

Their lips met in a soft kiss, well soft compared to their other usual…..activities. When they pulled away, it was as if the entire world froze for them. Even though they've done A LOT more than kiss before, the magic of that simple gesture never left. As if every kiss was their first.

So they just sat there, staring at each other, until Gohan threw some cash on the table and made a funny face at her, before dashing out of the restaurant with a laugh.

Videl rolled her eyes but smiled. She wondered how someone as grown up and big as him could act so childish sometimes, but hey….She loved that about him.

Shaking her head, she got up and gave chase, yelling "Gohan! You'd better get back here right now young man! Oh…don't you run away from me when I'm talking to you!"


Videl opened the door to her father's gigantic mansion, still wearing the smile that Gohan placed on her face. Throwing her keys on the table, she went over to the phone and picked it up, dialing their old family doctor's number. Through some weird unexplainable way, Gohan managed to convince her that a check-up will do her good. So here she was now, making a phone call she's never had to make ever since she was four years old.

Someone picked up.

"Hello, may I please speak to Dr. Tilman? Oh doctor Tilman, is that you! Yes, yes it has been too long hasn't it? Yeah, I know it's weird eh but I need to set an appointment for a check-up. No, no I'm not joking. You're fully booked? No, I'm not in a hurry. Okay, just give me a call as soon as you have an opening. Yup, you too! Take care Doctor Tilman!"

Videl hung up the phone and was heading for her bedroom when her father walked into the room. He had on an angry/ upset/ serious expression, making her very uncomfortable.

"Dad, what's wro-

"Is there something you forgot to mention to me?" Hercule cut in sharply, his arms crossed over his chest.

Videl blinked. "Huh? Dad, what are you talking about?"

He didn't answer her. Instead, he pulled out a newspaper and threw it at Videl angrily. She picked it up from the floor with interest and mild confusion and gazed at it. Then she dropped it with wide eyes.

"Would you mind telling me WHO the hell that BOY is Videl!" Hercule bellowed, taking a step forward to his daughter.

Videl looked up at him with a fierce glare. "Where'd you get this!"

"One of your little friends showed it to me! And you know the funny thing about it, I wouldn't have seen it because we don't get papers today! Now tell me who the hell this boy is right now Videl!" Her father demanded, matching her glare perfectly.

Their voices rang loud throughout the entire empty mansion. Just outside, a car pulled over by the driveway and a blonde woman walked out of the car.

Videl crushed the paper in her hand. "Why are you so mad all of a sudden!"

"Because this is NOT acceptable Videl! I've heard about this boy, he's just after you so that he can BANG YOU AND LEAVE!"

"You don't know him father!"

"I know what kind of man he is! And I FORBID you from seeing him again! AM I MAKING MYSELF CLEAR!

"Father I-

"AM I MAKING MYSELF CLEAR!" Hercule thundered with demanding force, the entire house shook from the force of his voice. They heard a key slip into the keyhole of the door but they ignored it. Then the door swung open.

Videl glared hatefully at her father, tears brimming her eyes. "No." It was barely audible, shaky, but it was heard.

Hercule stood there, mouth agape, his eyes wide in shock. Did his daughter just disobey him? "W-what!"

Videl straightened and held her chin up proudly. "No. You don't know Gohan father. Because guess what, he already 'BANGED' me more than once. And you know what else, HE'S STILL WITH ME!"

She spat at him, then stomped up the polished staircase and slammed her bedroom door with a temper. The 'World's Savior's' eyes widened even more, if that were possible.

Erasa, who had just walked in to the sight of her best friend screaming at her father, stood frozen in place. She had no idea what was going on, and watched dumbly as Mr. Hercule stomped away to the basement. After shaking off her stupor, she ran up the stairs and into her best friend's room.


Gohan closed the door behind him. With his mind still busy thinking about the woman that seemed to always occupy his every thoughts, he unconsciously heads for the kitchen, opened the fridge, and grabbed anything edible before stuffing it in his mouth.

He was so out of it that he didn't even realize his sister sitting at the table, watching him with mild interest. Gohan emerged from the fridge and walked over to the table, an apple in his mouth. Although Bra was sitting right in front of him, he showed no signs that he was aware of her presence as he sat down.

Until Bra threw a banana at his face that is…

He blinked at her, then pouted, taking a huge bite out of his apple. "Hey! That hurt you know."

Bra rolled her eyes and smiled. "So, how was your day big bro? Had fun with Vi Vi Vi Videl!"

Gohan laughed and nodded, throwing what was left of his apple in the garbage.

"Why are you here anyway? Where's your husband?" Gohan questioned, rummaging through the piles of newspaper at the table.

Bra popped her gum in her mouth and grinned. "He's over at his parent's house, taking the last of his stuff from there. Once we get his stuff at our new house, we'll be officially settled in."

He nodded before abruptly getting to his feet, his chair flew off and crashed on the opposite wall. Bra, acting on reflex only, got up too. "WHAT! WHAT'S WRONG GOHAN!"

He looked up at her with wide eyes, fear etched in his face, his trembling hands lifted the new paper into Bra's direction. The heading read in big bold letters:

PRINCE GOHAN BRIEFS AND VIDEL SATAN….ROMANCE?

Three different pictures of their date stood out on the paper, making Bra's eyes grow wide. She looked up at her big brother questioningly. "What's wrong Gohan?"

"Videl hates publicity! She'll hate me for this! Oh man, what am I going to do! I-

Bra rolled her eyes and clamped both her hands on her brother's running mouth. "Take a breather buddy, it will be okay. Just talk to her! I'm sure she'll understand you dummy."

Gohan seemed to relax at that and sighed. "Thanks Bra. I thought my nightmare was about to come true."

His sister smirked at that, which made him frown in concern. "Bra? What's going on?"

She pointed to his room with disgust. "Speaking of nightmare, someone is waiting for you in your room."


Well, that was it! It may not be the best chapter, but by the next chapter, you'll HATE me for what will happen…WOOPIE! LMAO! The story is almost nearing the end, well at least five or six more chapters to go.

I'd also like to know how many of you guys thought that Gohan and Videl REALLY got married in the beginning? LMAO!

So Videl is experiencing some pains wink wink

Sharpener has made the first move…

Hercule forbids their romance…

And who the hell is waiting for Gohan in his room? (lol..i think you already know.)
