A/N: Thanks to all of you who reviewed! I'm so sorry for the late update but because of sickness and schoolwork I didn't have time to write. I hope this makes for the long delay.

Chapter 6: What Bonding?

Two months have past since that lustful night. We decided we would just pretend it never happened. Many things have changed since then. Gohan and I aren't as comfortable around one another like we used to be. It's been very awkward between us lately. We hardly even speak to one another while sparring beside the usual hello's and goodbyes. My father noticed this when he came to watch us spar one night. He asked me about it but I just said it was nothing. I'm using ice more than I used to due to a fear and stress. I haven't been feeling well lately at all. Its like I'm getting weaker. I'm always tired and moody. In fact, a couple of days ago I passed out during class and refused to go to the hospital. I'm afraid their going to tell me what I'm dreading to hear and what I know is true. That I could be… Oh gosh I don't even want to say it. This is the whole reason why I been keeping my ki very high. It's or… it's just harder to sense… Maybe when I go out with Goten tonight I can get my mind off of it. Damn, I don't right feel calling the embryo an it.

"Videl!" my mother yelled.

"Yes?" I yelled back

"Goten is here! Hurry up and come down stairs!" She demanded.

"Alright!"

"Hey Goten, where are we going today?" I asked

"I was wondering if you would want to go out to eat tonight?" He stated.

"Sure!" I said a little too happy. I was really hungry.

At Yoshi's Restaurant

The food was really good, but I think I over did it a little. My gut was huge now and it looked really nasty. I'm not used to carry around extra weight. Goten had to even stop and stare. He had this really shocked expression on his face and that is not good being that his dad can eat more than damn planet combined.

"Videl… I-I have something to tell you…" Goten said nervously.

"What? Is it something bad or is it about my appetite tonight?"

"No… it's n-nothing bad… I hope its good…"

"Please just tell me already then."

" Al-alright… Videl I'm… I-I… Videl I've fallen in love with you." When he said those words my heart literally stopped. He can't be in love with me… We only been together a few months…

"Goten I… Goten you can't be in love with me… we only been together a few months!"

"I know but… Videl, I loved you since we were kids. I know you told me before that you don't believe in love, but maybe… well I was hoping I can change your mind."

"Goten-"

"Videl please… just give a me a little more time I know I can change your heart. I can make you see that… well that deep down inside you really love me too!" Goten breathed.

"Goten… I'm really tired… so can I just sleep on that thought?" I said getting up to leave.

"Yeah sure…" He said looking down at his hands.

"Goten you're a really nice person… I-ummm… bye." I said while walking out the door.

I quickly took off into the night feeling extremely guilty. I wish I never used Goten as a pawn to get over my problems. I never intended for him to fall in love with me. I needed advice and the only person that was on my mind at that time was Gohan.

When I arrived at Gohan's house he was already outside meditating. As soon as I started to near him he instantly jerked his around.

"Why are you still keeping your ki so high?" he asked

"That doesn't concern you." I spat back at him

"Being that I'm training you just about everything you do that involves ki concerns me." He countered.

I sighed. "I'm keeping my Ki up because… I want to scare my enemies away." I lied.

"Why do you persist to keep lying to me?" he questioned.

" Can I please talk you about something else important like your brother." I blurted out trying to change the subject.

"What's wrong with Goten?" He asked.

"Goten… Goten is umm… Goten thinks that he is love me." I said timidly

"What!" He exclaimed.

"I-I sa-"

"I heard what you said! I'm just digesting what you just told me. D-do you feel the same way about h-him." He asked.

"No… you know that I don't believe in that kind of stuff. That's why I need your help! I don't know what to do. Should I break up with him or stay and give him false hope about me falling in love with him." I announced.

"You don't want my advice…" He stated while looking away from me.

"Why not? Gohan?"

"Because… because… Videl we never really talked about what happened between us that night…"

"Gohan, why would you want to talk about that?"

"To clear things up between us. We haven't been the same since that night and its driving me crazy. I miss talking to you openly… without fear."

"It was an accident…"

"It wasn't an accident… I-I didn't accidentally just fall on top of you…"

" I meant it was an accident by… We didn't plan on it happening. We were just caught up in a rare moment…"

"Yeah sure… I guess… I'm sorry."

"Sorry for what?"

"I'm sorry for taking away your v-virginity. Even though, you say you don't believe in love, I know you was probably wanted to lose it to someone special."

"You are special, I mean your special to me as a friend and a sensei… Can we please stop talking about this? How about we spar to chill out a little?"

"That sounds like a good idea."

We sparred for about an hour before my body began to give out on me. Now instead of attacking him I was Just blocking… well trying to block anyway.

"I'm just tired, I'm not getting weaker." I defended myself.

"Huh?" Gohan breathed confused

"You said you don't understand why my strength keep decreasing." I stated.

"I… I didn't say that…out loud…" He said while standing in mid air.

"Yes you did!"

"No I said that in my mi- Oh my kami! We're bonding!"

"W-what! Maybe your jumping the gun a little don't you think… look try reading my mind… wait no let me try reading yours again to be sure…" I couldn't risk him finding out too much information. So I tried to read his my mind and to my astonishment it worked. I could actually hear his thoughts. This is not good I don't need him finding out anything yet.

"You're wondering what are we going to do about this whole bonding mess… Look please don't read or interfere in my thoughts."

"Why? Maybe I can find out why you've been acting so strange lately." He said with a smirk on his face.

"Gohan please-"

"Don't worry I was just kidding. I wouldn't invade your privacy like that just as long as you don't invade mine."

"Gohan, are you bonding with Sakura as well?"

"N-no… we haven't started bonding yet.

There was an awkward silence between us before I decided to break the ice.

"Well I should be heading home now." I said

"I guess I'll see you tomorrow then… bye." He said softly.

I arrived home extremely late so of course my father had a warm greeting for me at the door.

"Why the hell are you home so late?" He seethed

"I just got back from sparring with Gohan." I answered

"You are turning eighteen soon and you're still have no one to mate."

"Trunks is twenty and he still doesn't have a mate so what's your point?"

"Your grandfather and I decided to throw you and Trunks a mating ball. At the ball you and Trunks will choose a potential mate and settle down."

"That's not fair! What if I don't want to mate?"

"You are the princess you will mate whether you like it or not. This is a long family tradition and you or your brother will not break it."

"I thought you didn't want me to date."

"I don't but this is a tradition that I will not break because of my personal feelings. Beside my father would have my head if I did."

"Papa… what if I already mated?"

"What!"

"I said 'if' papa. I didn't mate but…"

"But what? You slept with Kakarot youngest brat didn't you?"

"I didn't sleep with Goten papa!"

"Good then there shouldn't be any problems. I wish you could choose kakarot oldest brat but unfortunately he's already taken."

"Papa I'm… I uhh… papa I'm pregnant.
