Man, don't ya'll just hate writer's block?

Yippee! They finally beat Kid Buu! I was like "C'mon, Goku!" the whole time. My mom was getting pissed that I was yellin. It was funny.

Oh, yeah, I made a writing error in the third chappie. The song is supposed to be called "Show Me a Hero". LoL, I wrote, "Sow Me a Hero". Hehe, sorry, I thought that was funny.

To all those who reviewed: Thanks!

Chapter Four

Videl paced wildly back and forth, trying to sort out her thoughts:

'Ok, that was scary.'

'Where the heck did he come from… oh, yeah, Japan.'

'Omigosh, omigosh, omigosh…'

'Dude, did that woman look like a slut or what?'

'At least they liked me.'

'Goody.'

'How come that guy didn't tip Melinda?'

Videl stopped pacing when she heard footsteps and a familiar voice, "Alright, Videl! They went wild!" Jake came up to her and embraced her in a friendly hug. "So, is that deal still worth it to you?"

Videl smiled sadly and said, "C'mon, I have to talk to you." She dragged him outside.

*_*_*

"Mom! Dad!" Gohan yelled as he walked towards their table, Freda waiting outside. ' "I have to make a call"', her voice rang through his mind.

Everyone looked up in surprise. Didn't Gohan say he had work to do?

Goten didn't care. Neither did ChiChi. They jumped up from their seats and hugged Gohan. Goku went to go get an extra seat

"Might want to get two, Dad", Gohan suggested. When Goku gave him a confused look, Gohan said proudly, "Freda's here."

The whole table groaned while Gohan asked simply, "What?"

ChiChi avoided eye contact with her son and sat back down. Gohan took one of the chairs that were added to the table.

"Everyone", Gohan said, his voice loud and clear, "I have an announcement to make: Freda and I are getting married."

His only response was, "That bitch? Good luck", from Vegeta.

No body argued.

"Well", ChiChi finally spoke sadly, not looking at him, "If that what makes you happy…"

"It does make me happy", Gohan said a little too quickly.

Vegeta snorted.

"Shut up", Gohan hissed.

"Gohan", Bulma spoke, "I think I speak for all of us when I say I don't trust her."

Gohan banged his head on the table lightly, "What did she do? What's wrong with her?" he whined.

"Oh, nothing", Vegeta put in helpfully, "Just that we think the stupid onna is using you for that money you make and that she's a bitch to everyone, except for you, brat. Got any reason why?"

"Vegeta, what did I just tell you?" Gohan's voice was low.

Vegeta snickered, "You'll have to force me brat." And with that he stood up, "I'm going back to that worthless place you call a motel." He left.

"Yeah, Vegeta's got the right idea", Goku said. Gohan narrowed his eyes. "I-I mean about going to the motel!" Goku said nervously, putting his hands up for defense.

Goku coughed and left also, being followed by Goten and Trunks. They didn't want to be left alone with their mothers or Gohan.

"Gohan", ChiChi said softly, "Did you know that Videl performed tonight? She sang, ya know."

Gohan nodded, smiling to himself, "Yeah, I heard her."

"Good!" Bulma said, "Then, you do know that, that song was for you, right?"

Gohan looked at her in shock before giving her a nervous laugh, "Heh, yeah right. I-I mean, wh-why would she do that?"

"Because she still loves you", ChiChi said, finally looking at him.

"What?!?!" Gohan exclaimed, refraining from jumping from the table. He lowered his voice when he noticed everyone staring, "If she still loves me, how come she left? She doesn't love me, Mom."

"Yes she does", ChiChi argued, "It was like a hidden message or something, ya know?" When she saw the blank stare her son was giving her, she explained, "Gohan, you do know why she left, right?"

Gohan looked around nervously for Freda, or, he gulped, even Videl. It would be so embarrassing talking about this while they're around, "Mom", he said through his teeth, "Do we have to talk about this?"

"She left, Gohan", ChiChi said a little louder, "Because you weren't being who you really were. You were so caught up in your work that you acted as if you were a mindless drone. In the song, she was saying it's better to relax and be yourself than to go and put the whole world on your shoulders!" She sighed angrily and stomped out of the lounge.

Gohan and Bulma were the only ones left. "Gohan", Bulma whispered, scooting closer, "Think about it."

"About what?" Gohan said in frustration.

"About everything", she said, walking out also.

Gohan was close to follow.

ChiChi was waiting in the car once they stepped outside. They also found Freda talking on her cell phone, who was being glared at by ChiChi.

As soon as Freda caught sight of Gohan, she said to the person on the other line, "Ok, I have to go… All right… yeah, you too, sir. Ok, bye-bye."

As she hung up, she walked over to Gohan very slowly, while Bulma hopped into the car with ChiChi, "Gohan", she called, "Do you need a ride?"

Gohan shook his head as he was embraced by Freda, "No thanks", he said, hugging her back, "Our hotel is a block away. Catch ya later."

Bulma nodded and drove off.

"So, who was that?" Gohan asked.

"On the phone?" Freda asked, "Oh, that was my boss. He wanted to know when I'll be back."

Gohan nodded.

"So, do you know that girl who sang tonight?" Freda asked, "Because she was looking at you the whole entire time. And you looked kinda sad and happy at the same time. I think I know that look."

Gohan laughed nervously and grinned, putting a hand behind his head and said, "I don't know what you're talking about."

And then he felt a ki spike.

Videl?

He felt a twinge of worry run through him. But, something else was occupying his mind.

Oh, yes, Freda's lips on his.

"This would be the time to get a room!" A voice said angrily from behind them.

Vegeta crossed his arms with a frown as he held a small black purse.

'I never thought I'd admit this', Gohan thought, 'But I am so glad Vegeta is here right now… Purse?'

Gohan felt a light smirk creep to his lips as he said, "So, Vegeta… how many dresses do you have?"

Vegeta gave him a confused look. But then he remembered the purse. He glared, "Shut up, brat. It's the damn onna's. I'm leaving."

Gohan tried to break away from his fiance's grip, but she held on pretty tightly.

"Just ignore him", she hissed as she glared at Vegeta.

"Erm, I, uh… um, have to… um, go… for a walk. Yeah, that's it, go for a walk", Gohan said nervously as he broke away from the hold, "I'll meet you at the hotel. I just remembered… I, uh, have to go ask my mom something."

Freda stared at the retreating figure before walking to the hotel.

*_*_*

"Can you believe it?" Videl exclaimed as she sat down on the swing next to Jake's, "He's here!"

"Well, I guess, but did you notice the woman he was with?" Jake said.

Videl felt a slight twinge of jealousy, but quickly let it pass. "Yeah", she admitted, leaning forward, "I guess you're right. I mean, why would he be here to see me anyway?"

Jake put a comforting hand on Videl's shoulder, "Yeah, why would he come to see such a low-life, stupid, worthless human like you?" he teased.

Videl laughed, not noticing a figure emerging from the shadows slowly, "I agree."

Jake turned serious, "Wait, you're telling me you're not worth it?"

Videl shrugged, "Why would I be? I'm not exactly a wonderful person to be with. You haven't noticed?"

Jake's jaw dropped, "Hell, yeah, I noticed. I noticed you're beautiful, smart, and talented. Why are you selling yourself short?"

Gohan's eyebrow twitched and felt a surge go through him as he watched the two friends. Was that jealousy? Another surge; oh, yeah, that's jealousy.

"My girlfriend would kill to be like you", Jake put in.

Gohan let out a sigh.

"Then why don't I feel happy?" Videl said sadly.

Gohan chose this moment, for some odd reason, to butt in.

"Videl!" He called, hoping that she wouldn't notice his flushed face as she looked up at him, surprised. "I've been looking everywhere for you! I wanted to tell you that your performance was great! And to think, I've even been married to you, and I didn't even know you could sing!"

Videl looked down, trying to hide the tears that stung her eyes, 'Has he gotten it over it so easily?' she thought sadly, 'I guess he really has moved on.'

"Yeah", Videl replied, still looking down, "There are a lot of things you don't know about me, Gohan. Maybe we didn't exactly know each as much as we thought, huh?" She said, not recognizing her tone as she stood up, "I have to go. Seeya tomorrow, Jake. Bye, Gohan."

With that she left.

Jake coughed to get caught Gohan's attention away from Videl's retreating figure, "Hello, I'm Jake Jonsen", he said, holding out his hand.

Gohan shook it and said, "I'm Gohan Son."

All Jake said was, "Oh", as he walked the opposite direction of Videl.

Gohan sighed and sat down on the swing.

He didn't even notice the tear sliding down his cheek.

TBC!

Wee! Sorry I took so long to write this! Oh, and have ya'll ever heard of the song "Picture" by Kid Rock and Sheryl Crow? No? Don't worry, you'll read the lyrics in the next chapter! I heard it and I instantly thought "DBZ Trap!" Although the lyrics might not exactly go with Gohan's character, it's still a good song for the story!

Bye-Z!
