Chapter 1 - Last Class Of The Day

Videl sighed as she sat at a desk at the front of a room. She was currently at a school, going to teach them some of the basic words of Japanese. Suddenly two strong arms wrapped around her waist. She was a bit suprised at first but knew who it was already. Videl groaned. "Gohan-kun, why did we go through with this again?" she whined.

Gohan smiled at her childish ways. "Because your dad and my mom decided on it for us since they both got a letter in the mail asking if they could send us all the way to America to teach Japanese. Oh and, they sent us because they didn't want to do it themselves."

Videl sighed again and leaned against Gohan's chest a bit. "But we're only 18! It's spring break for us in Japan! Aren't we supposed to be having fun?" She questioned as she moved out of his grip to look up at him.

"We have a long time here. Think of going to America as a get-away vacation from our parents, Videl-chan." Gohan replied and soon saw their next class come in.

"Look Stephanie! Our so called 'Japanese Teacher' is cute! And he's around our age too!" a blonde girl in the fron row whispered to a brunette girl next to her.

Stephanie rolled her eyes at her friend. "Angel, would you shut up for once in your life. He isn't THAT cute..."

"But you haven't even looked at him yet!" Angel replied as she turned Stephanie's head towards Gohan. Her eyes started to twinkle a bit and she stared dreamingly at him. "Wonder what's underneath that shirt..." she said aloud. Angel decided to join in her thoughts when Videl sighed after being beaten at rock paper scissors to see which of them would start the class.

"Okay, class. Today we will be learning the basics of Japanese. And keep in mind that this is your ONE and ONLY chance to learn for free. Are you all ready to begin?" Said Videl as she got nods from everyone.

"Viddy, they are around our age so maybe we could teach them a few dirty words here and there." Gohan suggested while smirking. Videl nodded in agreement. This might actually be fun.

Gohan took a white board marker and wrote a few things on the white board.

Nie - No (Ni-e)

Hai - Yes (Hi)

Atsui - Hot (At-su-e)

Samui - Cold (Sa-mu-e)

Damura - Shut up (Dam-ura)

"Okay, here are five words that are pretty basic. Please copy them down on paper. Now who would like to try to pronounce one of the words on the board?" Gohan questioned.

A girl in the back raised her hand, her long hair was down to her mid-back and was curly and dark brown. Gohan nodded towards her and she stood up from her seat.

"Nie." she said, pronouncing the word correctly.

Videl smiled at her and nodded. "That's correct."

The girl got and applause from the class as she sat back down in her seat.

"Anyone else wanna give it a try?" Gohan asked.

Angel snickered and grabbed Steph's arm and raised her hand up high. Steph blinked at her friend but then noticed Videl looking straight at her while nodding. "Go ahead." Videl said. Steph sighed and stood up.

"Hayi?" she tried to pronounce 'Hai'.

Videl snickered at her. "Incorrect. It is pronounced, Hai, like hi." she explained knowingly.

Steph rolled her eyes and sat down. And then she used Angel's own plan against her and stuck her hand up. Angel glared at Steph, but stood up anyway.

"Uh...um...At...Ats...Atsi...Atsiued?" she tried. Gohan held his hand over his mouth, trying to control his laughing although a few started to get out. Videl was doing the same. Then the couple looked at each other and started to laugh.

Angel's face turned bright red as she sat down in an embarresed state, especially since the class had also started to laugh.

"Gomen, miss, but that was pretty funny." Gohan said to Angel apologeticly as he gave her a Son Grin. "By the way, it's pronounced 'Atsui' Sorta like 'At-su-e' with a short e at the end." he explained while still grinning. That grin made her heart melt.

"Um...then if that's 'Atsui'...then the other one is 'Samui?'" a boy in the back asked.

Videl nodded at him while smilling. "We have a fast learner here, Gohan. You better watch out or he might become smarter than you." she teased her boyfriend. Gohan turned to her and punched her arm playfully.

"Oh and, the last word is damura. Which is pronounced how it is spelled. That's one of my favorite words." Said Gohan, still giving everyone the Son Grin.

"So I guess it's my turn now? Okay, I'm just gonna write 'em and pronounce 'em though." Videl said as she took a marker and began to write.

Genki - How Are You? (Gen-ki)

Ja Ne - Good Bye (Ja Ne)

Gomen - Sorry (Go-men)

Arigato - Thank you (Ari-got-o)

Chikusho - Damn (Chi-ku-show)

She wrote quickly. "Okay, I'll go in order and say each one, then I want you all to repeat after me." Videl explained.

"Genki. How are you?" Videl said as the class repeated.

"Ja Ne. Good Bye"

"Gomen. Sorry"

"Arigato. Thank You"

"Chikusho.Damn"

Gohan glanced at the clock and sighed. "Class will be over in five minutes so I guess you can all have that as free time." he said.

Everyone did as they said they could.

Angel sighed in relief. "I hate Japanese already..." she mumbled to herself. Steph just chuckled at her friend.

Gohan and Videl both sat down in chairs facing towards each other. "Videl-san...what should we do after this class? Since it IS our last class today, thank kami..."

"Yeah, really. To think Dende would torture us like this...although it's sorta nice being able to spend the whole spring break with my boyfriend." Videl said while smiling as they quickly kissed each other's lips, knowing they still had a class in here.

Steph caught the kiss though and giggled. "Hey Angel, did you know our teachers happen to be boyfriend and girlfriend?" she questioned her blonde friend.

"No. How would you know that anyway, Steph?" Angel asked confused.

"Cause they just kissed..."

Everyone had paused their conversations to stare at Steph and Angel as they heard every word they said.

"DARN IT! HE/SHE WAS SO CUTE!" The whole class yelled, minus Steph. Steph snickered at the class and just then the bell rang, signaling that school was over for the day, and it was Friday too!

Videl stood up along with Gohan. "YES! Thank kami we are OUTTA HERE!" Videl cheered as she and Gohan rushed out the door before any of the students even got close to it.

A/N: I think I'll stop this chapter here, and to let you know, it gets WAY more interesting. Trust me. Well, please review! Oh and, keep in mind that this will have quite a lot of G/V romance in it too, but Angel and Steph are gonna be here throughout the whole story. Oh and, also, I have already written the next chapter, but I want reviews to see if I should continue or not!

Ja ne,

Jessi-chan
