Chapter Seven
(Three months later)
Son Gohan was sitting down on a bleacher in the Orange Star High School gym.
He had both his elbows bent and was using them to sustain his upper body as his legs were supported by the row of bleachers in front of him as he laid them above it.
Right now the Demi-Saiyan watched as a huge line of guys run from the locker room to the center of the gymnasium, all hooting and hollering as the ran to the center circle.
The half-breed teen let a long sigh escape his lips and he checked his watch for the third time that minute.
'Where were they?' he demanded in his head.
He had been waiting for twenty minutes for Videl and Erasa, they had repeatedly told him to be sure to be on time and there he was, twenty minutes early and there was no sign of them.
Gohan sat up and ran one of his hands through his short spiky hair as he took out his cell phone to prepare to call the two females.
As soon as he dialed Erasa's number he heard the bubbly female's voice over the crowd. Gohan stood up as Videl and Erasa searched for their male friend.
"Gohan!" Erasa shrieked as she ran over to the Demi-Saiyan as hugged him. Gohan chuckled and greeted the two females as they sat down.
"So have you seen Sharpie yet?" Erasa asked. Gohan shook his head, "No not yet, the team just came out I'm sure he'll be here soon." Just as Gohan finished his statement Sharpener ascended up the bleachers.
"Hey guys, glad you came," Sharpener stated.
"Wouldn't miss it," Videl said sarcastically.
"Hey Erasa," Sharpener began ignoring the daughter of the Champ's bitter greeting as he took hold of the blonde female's hand, "I need a good luck kiss."
Erasa stood up and followed her boyfriend down the bleachers where they went to the side. "Oh god," Videl said in a disgusted tone as she looked away.
Gohan looked where the raven-haired teen was looking and saw his two friends in the middle of a deep, long, passionate kiss, that did not seem to be ending anytime in the near future.
"Can you believe it?" Videl sighed as she caught the Demi-Saiyan's attention, "Two people making a spectacle like that is disgusting, there are rooms they can do that in away from others."
Gohan let quiet laugh escape his lips, "You know it isn't that bad." Videl cocked an eyebrow, "What?"
"Making out in public," Gohan explained as he slid closer to Videl, "See watch."
Videl finally realized what he was doing as the Demi-Saiyan's face became closer and closer to hers.
"Gohan," she gasped. Then suddenly he pulled away. Although disappointed, she pasted on a facial expression of shock, disgust and anger as quickly as she could.
It's then that Videl heard Gohan's laughter.
"Got ya'," he said a smile of pure pleasure on his face as he continued to laugh at the daughter of the champs expense. Videl growled and hit Gohan over the head.
The Demi-Saiyan stopped his outward expression of amusement and just smirked as he rubbed the back of his head.
"Sorry Vi, I couldn't resist," Gohan said innocently as he pulled Videl closer to him with his spare arm and she rested her head on the Demi-Saiyan's shoulder.
Videl enjoyed Gohan's warmth when their bodies touched.
Over the past three months they had become quiet good friends they had gone out to lunch and studied together at various locations but never once the other's home.
Videl could never bring Gohan over to her house because of her father, his very well enforced rule of no boys was quiet clear and crystal. Gohan never brought Videl over to his home because of it's famous reputation, the fact that Gohan was the adopted son of Bulma and Vegeta Briefs had never escaped his lips almost ever.
Only close friends knew of this and a few paparazzi that had been spying on the Demi-Saiyan while he was outside and around the huge building.
The mysterious adopted son of the famous Briefs family was quiet popular among people because of the little that was known about him.
The only Demi-Saiyan in the Briefs household that well known by the public eye was little Trunks, he was the only son that Bulma actually talked about.
She refrained from the Son boys because she didn't want to make Gohan upset, he had never really wanted to be famous, especially now that he was in High School.
"Welcome everyone!" were the words that silenced the audience. The silence didn't say for the long, very quickly it was substituted with a loud uproar of cheering.
"Thank you all for coming to this event sponsored by the Orange Star High School athletic department," the commentator continued. Just as commentator was talking Sharpener and Erasa returned. "Back so soon?" Videl said with disgust. Erasa ignored the raven-haired girl's remark and sat down.
"Later guys," Sharpener said as he went back to join his team.
"So what is this exactly?" Gohan inquired. "It's the big Satan City meet, every Varsity Martial Arts Team in Satan City shows up and the winner this year gets a guaranteed spot in the WMAT tournament coming up," Erasa explained.
Gohan nodded in understanding, as he looked back to the gym floor which was now covered with ten different white rings that were customary in the real World Martial Arts Tournament.
"So let's get started," the commentator said enthusiastically, "This is very exciting…"
The rest Gohan tuned out, he was bored, he had only come to this thing because Erasa begged him.
The real reason he actually came was because Videl reluctantly obliged, he wouldn't have gone without her. Personally the Demi-Saiyan would rather stay home and beat Vegeta at another sparring match than watch amateur fighters trying to resemble actual combat, he thought this was pathetic.
The fighting had finally begun.
There were two guys in the arena to the far left, one was about six foot four and the other was about five ten. Gohan watched the match up for a few minutes before the shorter of the two guys won.
The half-breed male stood up and descended down the bleachers to the snack stand that was located near the right.
As soon as Gohan was walking towards the stand, Videl stood up to follow him.
He pulled his wallet out of his back pocket and opened it. A huge wad of money was visible to anyone standing over the Demi-Saiyan's shoulder.
Gohan pulled out a fifty-zeni bill and bought a large pile of snacks that would hold over an entire football team.
"Wow!" Videl said in astonishment when she arrived and saw the amount of snacks her friend possessed. "You can eat all that?" she inquired with a sly look on her face.
Gohan smirked, "Maybe."
"Here let me help you," Videl said as she grabbed three bottles of water, two bags of chips, three bags of cookies and four packages of candy.
"How in the world do you stay in shape and you eat all this junk?"
Videl asked stunned at that fact. Gohan shrugged, "I don't know, I guess I just work out enough and have a fast metabolism."
Videl wasn't satisfied with the answer but forgot about it as they walked back to their seats.
The rest of the event was mildly entertaining, Sharpener had won and had guaranteed a spot in the 28th WMAT (I believe it is the 28th WMAT, tell me if I'm wrong).
"Congrats Sharpie," Erasa squealed as she pulled Sharpener in for a kiss.
Gohan covered Videl's eyes.
"What are you doing?" she asked sharply with her eyes still covered by Gohan's large hands.
"You said you hated seeing people make a spectacle so, well I thought this was kind of self explanato-" Gohan said mockingly until Videl cut him off.
"Get your hands off my face," she snapped. Gohan obeyed and slid them into his pockets.
"Keep them there," Videl warned him as she walked off.
Gohan chuckled softly under his breath as he followed the raven-haired beauty he loved teasing her.
"31.42," the nasal monotone voice of the kid in the in the admission booth at the Orange Star Amusement Park said. The group had decided to go to the amusement park in celebration of Sharpener's victory.
As Videl took out a two twenties Gohan put his hand over hers and whispered gently in her ear, "I got it Videl." Videl obeyed and shivered on the inside and slid her money pack into her back jean pocket.
After Gohan paid the kid they all walked into the huge amusement park. Everywhere there were huge rides the looked like they scrapped the sky.
Erasa led the four as his dragged Sharpener by the hand into the massive park.
A few hours and few dollars later the group had been through the entire park.
Sharpener and Erasa had gone on the tunnel of love ten times and Gohan had won Videl a huge stuffed animal, even though she wasn't a fan of stuffed animals she accepted it graciously.
"So now what?" the Demi-Saiyan asked as he sat down on the bench next to one of the exits of a roller coaster they had just been on. "It's getting pretty late, I think I should be getting home," Videl explained.
"You can't stay a little longer?" Erasa begged. Videl shook her head slowly. "Here," Gohan offered, "You two can stay, I'll take Videl home."
"Really?" the raven-haired girl asked just to have it confirmed. Gohan nodded, "Come on."
"Bye you two," Erasa said as she winked at the two black haired teens.
After they stopped blushing they headed towards the exit of the park.
"What a day," Gohan chuckled. Videl laughed too, "Yeah."
When they reached the parking lot Gohan grabbed a Capsule out of his jacket and threw it on the ground, revealing a red hover car, the same one the 'Gold Fighter' used to help Videl.
Gohan opened the door for Videl and then went to the other side and jumped in.
"So Gohan," Videl said breaking the silence, "Are you going to enter the
World Martial Arts Tournament?"
"I don't know. Maybe." The raven-haired girl nodded, "That's cool, I have to enter, my father is making me." "Of course, you're the Champ's daughter," Gohan responded. Videl laughed softly, "It's definitely not as glamorous as it sounds."
"Yeah right, I'm sure being rich has lots of negatives," Gohan said sarcastically. Videl rolled her eyes in joking manner, "Well what about you."
"What about me?" Gohan replied.
"You certainly have to be well off if you have two different cars, that look brand new," Videl implied.
Gohan rubbed the back of his head with his free hand.
"GOHAN!" Videl shrieked as the vehicle began to descend.
The Demi-Saiyan gripped the controls tightly as he pulled the Hover car to make it level.
Videl had her hand over her heart as her breathing pattern went back to a normal one.
She looked to her side to see Gohan laughing.
As she took a closer look to his face she saw that he was laughing so hard he was crying.
"You jerk," Videl snapped as she shoved the half-breed teen in his shoulder.
This, however, had no impact on Gohan's laughter; in fact it only fueled it more.
"Stop!" Videl demanded. After he didn't she repeated her demand and this time it came more as a plea.
"Stop," Videl said now she caught a case of the contagious laughter that seemed to be spreading.
Finally Gohan contained himself, "Sorry Vi. It's just the look on your face was priceless."
"Shut up," Videl muttered as she shoved the Demi-Saiyan again.
Gohan once again started up his hover car and drove more towards Videl's mansion.
"Oh you need to-" Videl began, but before she could give the instructions Gohan turned the exact turn she was just about to tell him to do.
"How did you know that?" Videl inquired. Gohan gulped, he had remembered this from when he flew Videl home. How could be this stupid, what if she made a connection.
"Um, you said you live on Satan Ave.," Gohan made up quickly after he glanced at the street sign.
Videl eyed Gohan suspiciously, she knew that Gohan was hiding something.
After that turn the two could see in the distance the huge mansion owned by the Satan family.
"So, I'll drop you off by the door," Gohan stated.
"I don't think that's a good idea," Videl explained. A questioning look from her male friend told her to expand on that comment. "My father," Videl began, "Doesn't like me to hang out with boys."
"Ohhh…" Gohan said, "So, where should I drop you off."
"My balcony," Videl suggested.
"Alright," Gohan replied as he drove his vehicle to Videl's balcony, which he had noted the location, "Here we are."
"Thanks you Gohan," Videl smiled, "See you Monday."
"Yeah, bye Videl," Gohan said softly.
Videl started to open the door only to be stopped by a strong arm.
She turned around abruptly to be face to face with Gohan.
Slowly the gap between them grew thinner and thinner until there no longer was one.
Their lips met in a heated kiss that grew more passionate with each second that passed.
Gohan felt his Saiyan side shove all of his human restraints and thought out of his head and completely take control. They finally broke for air, both were panting heavily.
Their foreheads were touching; Videl closed her eyes as Gohan gently caressed her face as she could feel his free hand on the bottom of her shirt.
"Gohan," Videl murmured as she put two fingers over his lips, "This is too fast."
"Okay," he whispered back as he kissed her one last time, this time quicker and not as fiery, "Goodnight."
Videl exited the hover car and descended onto the balcony, she waved at Gohan and opened the French doors to her bedroom. T
he Demi-Saiyan watched her until he saw her walk into the bathroom, and flew off into the night.
A/N: Sorry for the wait, I had a terrible case of writers block, two projects and a week of testing slowing me down for this chapter, but alas here it is. I hope you liked it, it was a lot in one chapter, but I just wanted to get this started. It wasn't my longest but I tried to make it more than 2000 words. That is my goal for each chapter. I know Videl was kind of OCC-ish at the end of the chapter, but they have been friends for a few months already so that's why she is so nice to him. There is going to a WMAT that will follow the series (with Majin Buu) and Goku and Chi-Chi will come back from the dead to visit for one day. So there is going to be some following the series but with a twist. So stay tuned to this, I hope you like this because I do (so far). Please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please review! I really appreciate it. I thank all the people who do review and all my loyal readers. You guys rock.
