-----Chapter Seven
"Okay, it's time," Trunks and Goten said nodding to each other.
"I can have the car?" Zack asked.
"No," Trunks replied. He shook his head. "It's time to let Videl talk to you."
"Talk? Me? As in…"
"Not face to face," Goten added. "Through letters."
"Why? This is a fluke! Not a dating service!" Zack replied outraged.
"It isn't a dating service! We just need you to be her pen pal and meet her once in person and go out with her on dates once in a while," Trunks explained.
"Why?"
"So my brother can see you're real!" Goten replied. "If he finds out we were behind this, he'd hurt us real bad! Well, he wouldn't hurt us, he'd hurt you, but I just don't want my brother mad at me."
"Do it or you won't get your car," Trunks warned him.
Zack sighed. "I'm nineteen and I'm being manipulated to do things by a bunch of kids."
As he continued to work on the next letter, Goten and Trunks were discussing what changes had to be made. Goten nodded as Trunks explained the things they had to do.
"Hey!" Zack scowled at them. "What are you two talking about?"
"Go back to work earthling," Trunks impersonated his father. "Bwa Hahahahahah!"
Goten let out a laugh before joining in on the joke. "Mwe Hee Hee hee hee!"
-----
Oh boy, I'm in trouble now… Gohan watched as Videl stormed over to him with a glower on her face. He made to get away but it was too late.
"What the hell were you doing following me around!" she demanded, fire burning in her eyes. Gohan expected smoke to come out from her ears and nose. She looked very frightening.
Gohan scratched his head. "I was worried that you were… Hurt. You didn't show up for class and—"
"Next time, MIND YOUR BUSINESS!" she shouted before storming off.
Gohan let out a heavy sigh. Gathering his things, he walked to class, his heart heavy. Whoever this secret admirer guy of hers was, or that guy at the park, he had to know and find out who it was because not only was it driving him mad with jealousy, but it was also ruining the friendship he had with her.
-----
It was pathetic that two kids not only were able to hold him hostage, but they were stronger, faster, and even somewhat smarter than him.
Panting, his sides aching, and out of breath, the human teen collapsed on the dirt. From ten feet away, the two saiyans rushed over. Trunks looked down at him with pity.
"Tell me," Zack panted, "why are we doing this?"
Goten poked his stomach. "You have a little gut. My brother doesn't."
"I don't care about your brother!" Zack groaned. "I care about me!"
"Get up," Trunks rolled his eyes.
"But I can't even lift up my arms… They feel like lead."
Trunks looked at Goten, his expression solemn. It was way harder than they thought.
-----
Gohan couldn't believe what he was doing. He turned to go but turned back to face the door. There was a horrible feeling in his stomach and for once it wasn't because he was hungry. A monster eating away at his insides. As if resisting the force that was lifting his hand, he knocked on the door.
"Gohan! What a pleasant surprise," Bulma greeted him with a warm welcome hug.
"Hey Bulma," Gohan managed to say. He felt nauseous. "Is Vegeta home?"
"Come on in. I'll get him for you."
Gohan sat on the sofa feeling worse than he was at the door. He couldn't explain it but ever since Videl blew up at him, he'd been feeling terrible.
"What do you want, brat?" Vegeta asked as he walked into the room.
Gohan took a deep breath. "I need to talk to you… About girls."
He expected the Prince of Saiyans to run out of the room. Vegeta stayed, a smirk on his face.
"What's it like to be in love?" Gohan asked.
