AN: I'M BACK!
Last Time: Gohan and Videl get pelvic, and she tells Sharpener that they're still alive.... If you don't remember, go and read it again.
***Story***
Videl smiled, laying with her head in the crook of Gohan's arm, running her finger down his chest. Gohan, being half asleep was purring loudly, feeling very content, even if he'd just had the best workout of his life. She snickered and pushed herself up to look down at him, her smile fading. Leaning down, Videl pressed her lips lightly to his temple before whispering into his ear, knowing that he'd get mad about what she'd done.
"I talked to Sharpener. He knows we're still alive," her words brought Gohan out of his after sex-daze. He gently pushed her away and sat up, clamping a tight fist around the anger that was running through him. He would not let it consume him. Pushing himself out of bed, he picked up his boxers, and pulled them on. Heading over to the dresser, he pulled on his gi pants and tied his belt. Suddenly, his head dropped and a growl rose in his chest.
"What we just did, did you do it because you thought that maybe I wouldn't be mad at you for giving that little fact back to Sharpener?" Gohan asked, his voice cold. Videl gasped, and shook her head.
"No... No, never," Videl said, shocked that he'd say such a thing. She couldn't believe it.
"Then why tell me? Why tell me that you had told our worst enemy, the one that made us lose our first child, that he'd failed, and we still lived?" Gohan asked, turning to look at her, his eyes filled with the anger he had a tight grip on. He was determined not to blow up at her. Yet, even seeing the pain and regret in her eyes, he couldn't douse the fire of the rage he felt growing hotter and hotter by the moment.
"I had to tell you, I had to. I didn't think you'd like to have found out by yourself, when he showed up at the door," Videl said, still feeling rather afraid of her 'mate'. Gohan shook his head.
"Remember his sentence, no chance of parol, or bail," Gohan said, rolling his eyes as he pulled on his blue under shirt. Videl closed her eyes, the black depths filling with tears.
"I called his lawyer as well, explained the situation. He told me something, they appealed the sentence, they won, the 'no parol, no bail' thing was dropped, Sharpener's getting out on parol, for good behavior, it was confirmed today just before I called. He was packing when I called. There's no way around it, Gohan, he's out, He's free, able to come after me, and you and your family. I.... shouldn't have told him, and I know that now, but I had to talk to him. I HAD to, I'm sorry," Videl whispered, closing her eyes and hanging her head. Gohan was about to reply with something mean, when the phone rang. He went to it and picked it up, thankful for a distraction from the pain on Videl's face. But what he heard didn't help him at all.
"MushI Mushi, Son Gohan speaking," his eyes were closed, and he was taking slow, even breaths. But he almost exploded when he heard the person on the other line.
"You had better get you and your family somewhere where I can't get to them, because I WILL get my beloved Videl back, Saiyan," Sharpener's voice was cold, and the line went dead before Gohan could reply.
"Who was it? Gohan?" Videl asked, getting to her feet and wrapping the sheet around herself. She watched as Gohan's hand tightened around the phone, the plastic creaking for a moment before it broke and fell to the floor. "Gohan?" Videl asked again, going forward and laying her hand on his shoulder. He turned to look at her, his eyes pure white with fury.
"It was Sharpener. He's going after my family, and me. He swears he'll take what's mine from me," the ice in his voice sent chills down Videl's back.
AN: Hey, sorry about the time and all, and it being a really short chapter and all. But after I got back from MO my computer stopped working, well the cord anyway, so I got stuck waiting three weeks to get it back. This was the only time I was able to work on it, and I really wanted to get it up so.... Here it is. Sorry about any grammar, or misspelled words, I didn't proof it.
